Douro Continent

Chapter 538 Resurrection, Xiao Wu, One Half

"Mmm—" Xiao Wu let out a soft moan, tinged with pain, in his arms. This startled Tang San, who was completely immersed in joy and excitement. He then realized he had been holding her a little too tightly. He quickly loosened his grip and looked down at Xiao Wu in his arms. That exquisite face—he could look at it for a lifetime and never get enough.

Instead of the expected "Brother," Tang San saw Xiao Wu's empty eyes and a faint look of dependence on her pretty face. Although she was naked, she appeared calm and serene.

"Xiao Wu, I'm sorry, I was too excited and hugged you too hard," Tang San apologized softly.

Xiao Wu continued to stare blankly at him, without saying a word. She slowly rested her head against his chest, saying nothing.

"Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you?" Tang San's excitement began to fade rapidly when he saw Xiao Wu's empty eyes. A chilling coldness gradually rose from the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Wu remained in her original position, offering no reply, simply nestling quietly against him without uttering a sound.

Having recovered from his excitement, Tang San looked at the bed. The rabbit was gone; besides him, only Xiao Wu was on the bed. Yes, it was Xiao Wu. Tang San smelled the delicate fragrance emanating from Xiao Wu in his arms, exactly the same as the rabbit's. His mind raced, and he gradually understood the situation.

At this moment, Xiao Wu, nestled in his arms, had indeed been resurrected. Moreover, Tang San understood that it was very likely that Xiao Wu had now become a real human.

Both the Heartbreak Red Acacia and the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng are divine treasures, born from the very essence of heaven and earth. Under the influence of these two immortal herbs, Xiao Wu regained her human form, and her body was even accelerated into maturity. In other words, Xiao Wu is now truly a human woman.

However, Xiao Wu wasn't truly resurrected; only a part of her had been resurrected. Now, she lacked her own soul; her existence was entirely due to the two celestial herbs, possessing only the instincts of a newborn rabbit. Her form had changed, but her mind remained essentially the same as in her previous rabbit form. If he couldn't fulfill the conditions set by the Azure Bull Python Daming, she probably still wouldn't be truly resurrected. Although she appeared alive before him now, it could be said that Xiao Wu had only been resurrected as a fraction of her former self.

Xiao Wu needs the return of her soul rings and soul bones, and the nine-ring soul power to help her soul return to her body. It's unclear whether she still needs the ten-thousand-year-old ninth-grade ginseng king. The Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng likely played a role in this, allowing Xiao Wu to transform into human form. In terms of medicinal efficacy, unless it's the entire ten-thousand-year-old ninth-grade ginseng king, a portion of it absolutely cannot compare to the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

Gently stroking Xiao Wu's soft black hair, Tang San's eyes filled with sadness. "So, you weren't truly resurrected. You only regained your physical form. But, Xiao Wu, it's alright. This is already a good start. At least I can always see you in human form from now on. I will cultivate diligently and strive to help your soul return to your body as soon as possible. Okay?"

Xiao Wu, of course, could not respond to him. Tang San dared not look at her body, for he feared he would defile the perfect lover in his heart. He secretly vowed in his heart that he must not have an excessively intimate relationship with her until Xiao Wu's soul returned to her body and she was truly resurrected. He loved her, loved everything about her, not just her body.

He swiftly retrieved one of his own long robes from the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlit Night, helped Xiao Wu put it on, and tightened the belt to prevent any accidental exposure. Tang San naturally didn't have any underwear for girls, so this was the only option for now.

Tang San's clothes looked a bit too big on Xiao Wu, but they only accentuated her delicate, exquisite, and endearing face.

"Come on, come with me, okay?" Tang San pulled Xiao Wu's hand and stood up.

Perhaps it was because he was holding her hand that she instinctively offered no resistance and followed him outside. Xiao Wu walked slowly, but naturally. After all, she had once been human, and her human instincts remained. She had only lost her soul power, soul rings, and all other abilities.

When the members of the Yu Clan guarding the gate saw Tang San leading Xiao Wu, they were all stunned. Xiao Wu was not only beautiful, but she also exuded a purity they had never seen before. She was innocent and untouched by worldly concerns.

Tang San didn't care what others thought of him. As long as he could hold Xiao Wu's hand forever, that was the greatest happiness for him.

restaurant.

Bai He sat next to Yang Wudi, and the two were talking.

"What? Say it again, what does that thing look like?" Yang Wudi stared at Bai He in astonishment, his face filled with disbelief. The Po Clan truly possessed unique expertise in medicine. Just this morning, Yang Wudi had been bruised and swollen, but although marks were still visible on his face, they were much better now.

Everyone except Tang San had arrived. Bai He decided to try persuading Yang Wudi first, since the two were the closest, and he wasn't entirely confident that Tang San would persuade Yang Wudi later. He decided to lay the groundwork first for the sake of his grandson, to gain the upper hand.

Yang Wudi's surprise at this moment was due to the description of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng that Bai He had just given him.

When Bai He described it again, Yang Wudi's previously dull eyes suddenly lit up. "Good, good, you old white bird. You had such a good thing and you didn't bring it out sooner. Alright, I understand what you mean. Don't say anything more, give me that thing, and I'll join the Tang Clan with you."

"Huh?" Bai He hadn't expected Yang Wudi to agree so readily. He himself wasn't entirely clear about the value of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, only knowing that it was extremely precious. But how could Yang Wudi, who had dedicated his life to the study of medicine, not know? With the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng, he could create a batch of miraculous medicinal herbs that rivaled the wonders of nature. For Yang Wudi, who was obsessed with alchemy, nothing could be more attractive than this.

Moreover, Tang San's defeat of him today had greatly affected him, and with the other three of the four major clans having already chosen to join the Tang Sect, he simply went with the flow and chose to join as well.

Seeing Yang Wudi rubbing his hands excitedly, Bai He breathed a huge sigh of relief. He also beamed with joy, relieved that the four clans could be together again and that he hadn't offended his old comrade. Although he had given up that precious herb, in his eyes, it was all worth it.

Just then, Tang San arrived with Xiao Wu.

Tang San walked in front, with Xiao Wu following behind him, her hand held behind his back. Besides the four clan leaders, Ma Hongjun, Tailong, Niu Ben, and Bai Chenxiang were also present. When they saw Tang San enter with the woman behind him, Ma Hongjun and Tailong were the first to react.

"Xiao Wu?" The two exclaimed at the same time, standing up abruptly. The movement was so sudden that the chairs they were sitting on knocked over behind them.

Xiao Wu was wearing Tang San's long robe, her long, black hair draped over her shoulders and hanging down in front of her, held back with her other hand, otherwise it would have fallen to the ground. Although she was no longer as naive as before after five years of separation, her overall appearance had not changed drastically. Ma Hongjun and Tailong recognized her immediately.

All the other men, including the four clan leaders who were over eighty years old, were stunned when they first saw Xiao Wu.

Bai He had always considered his granddaughter Bai Chenxiang's beauty to be unparalleled, but upon seeing Xiao Wu, he realized that Bai Chenxiang's appearance had been completely overshadowed, both in looks and temperament.

Bai Chenxiang was stunned, her face showing utter shock. In the past two days, Tang San had displayed incredible prowess, defeating Bai He and Yang Wudi one after another, leaving a deep impression on her. What young girl doesn't harbor romantic feelings? And Tang San himself was so handsome and refined. Unconsciously, she had already developed some affection for him. But now, Tang San had so suddenly brought a girl with him, and such a stunningly beautiful one at that, filling her with an indescribable feeling.

Women are perceptive, and Bai Chenxiang immediately recognized that Xiao Wu's clothes belonged to Tang San, indicating that the two had an extremely close relationship.

Tang San led Xiao Wu to sit down first, then sat down beside her and nodded to the four clan leaders, saying, "Thank you for waiting, seniors."

Niu Gao looked at Xiao Wu and couldn't help but ask, "Tang San, who is she?"

Tang San gave a wry smile, unsure how to explain. Xiao Wu was holding both of his hands, and she shifted her body slightly, pressing her shoulder against Tang San's. Her movements were natural, and her dependence was obvious to everyone.

"I don't know how to explain this to you all. Let me introduce her to you all. Her name is Xiao Wu, and she is my lover. However, she lost her mind while saving me and is unable to bow to you all. Please forgive her."

Titan tugged at Niu Gao's sleeve, signaling him not to ask any more questions. Bai He, though puzzled, didn't know much about Tang San and was unaware that Xiao Wu had never appeared before. Yang Wudi frowned, "Lost consciousness? Was it brain trauma, shock, or poisoning?"

Seeing Xiao Wu, he couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine. The Xiao Wu now standing before him had her hair down and was wearing Tang San's clothes, completely different from the Xiao Wu who attacked him. Back then, Xiao Wu moved incredibly fast, appearing as a phantom, so no one had yet recognized her as the same person whose sixth soul skill had nearly killed Yang Wudi earlier that day. However, the connection was still there, which was why Yang Wudi felt a sense of fear when he looked at Xiao Wu.

Tang San shook his head and said, "Neither."

Yang Wudi was taken aback for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "None of those? Do you think I'm a fool? Look at her rosy complexion and full forehead; she clearly has vigorous blood and energy, and her vitality is incredibly strong. Unless she suffered a head injury or was poisoned and left with aftereffects, she must have been frightened. I can't think of any other possibilities besides these three."

Tang San said calmly, "Senior Yang Wudi, I think you haven't forgotten our bet this morning. How about we fulfill our promise?"

Yang Wudi's face turned cold. "Of course, I, Yang Wudi, keep my word. State your conditions."

Tang San smiled slightly and said, "Actually, my condition is very simple. I just hope that you will accept a gift from me, senior."

Yang Wudi was taken aback for a moment, then, remembering what Bai He had said to him earlier, his expression softened considerably. After exchanging a glance with Bai He beside him, he said to Tang San, "Alright, give it to me."

At this moment, Bai He was all smiles, and Titan and Niu Gao, who had overheard their conversation, also wore smiles, waiting for the final result to be settled. In their view, Tang San's choice to state this condition was clearly a good one.

Tang San reached into his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch, and when he withdrew his hand, a large, stemmed flower appeared in his palm. Instantly, a faint, delicate fragrance was released, its refreshing scent permeating every corner of the restaurant. Even Xiao Wu, sitting next to Tang San, couldn't help but gaze her empty, clear eyes at the flower in Tang San's hand.

It was a large, pale pink flower with no leaves. Its stem was three feet long, and the flower itself was enormous, with a diameter of about a foot. Each petal looked as clear and translucent as crystal.

Bai He, who had already resigned himself to the outcome, was shocked to see that Tang San had produced a large flower instead of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng. "Little San, where's the ginseng I gave you?"

Tang San smiled wryly at Bai He and said, "Grandpa, it's not that I'm unwilling to take it out, it's just that Xiao Wu has already eaten it."

"What?!" Bai He stared at Tang San in disbelief, his face turning deathly pale. He knew Yang Wudi's personality all too well. He couldn't keep his promises, and given his existing prejudice against the Clear Sky Sect, he was no longer willing to compromise with the Tang Sect. The carefully constructed situation was instantly destroyed. Even Titan and Niu Gao's expressions turned grim. If Yang Wudi refused to join the Tang Sect, it meant that Bai He and his Min Clan would also be unable to join. That would be a huge loss.

However, to their surprise, Yang Wudi kept his eyes fixed on the large flower in Tang San's hand, slowly stood up, and strode over to Tang San.

"Are you really willing to give it to me?" Yang Wudi's voice trembled, a tremor born of excitement and joy.

Tang San earnestly said, "Spiritual creatures choose their masters. With you by its side, it should be able to exert a greater effect. I also have some knowledge of medicine and hope to learn from your teachings in the future."

Yang Wudi carefully took the large flower from Tang San's hand and readily said, "Alright, from now on I'll follow you. Why didn't you take it out sooner? If you had, I wouldn't have had to fight you and make a fool of myself. But let's make this clear first. Your Tang Clan is not allowed to restrict me."

Tang San smiled and said, "That's no problem. I invited you and the Po clan to the Tang Sect simply to discuss research on medicine."

Yang Wudi brought his nose close to the large flower and took a deep sniff. Suddenly, he started dancing wildly as if he had gone mad. "Haha, hahahahaha! I've been searching for it my whole life, and I never thought I'd get it like this! The Fragrant and Exquisite Immortal Herb! With you, what poison would I dare not make in the future? There will be no more tragedies. Haha, this is wonderful!"

The white crane was frustrated and couldn't help but ask, "Is this thing more valuable than my ginseng?"

Yang Wudi laughed heartily, his face no longer showing any trace of his usual rigidity. "This is incomparable. In terms of preciousness, perhaps your Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is more valuable. However, for me, this Fragrant Qiluo Immortal Herb is far more important. With it, I no longer need to fear being poisoned by the medicine when refining any medicine. With it, I can begin refining many medicines that I previously dared not attempt. Moreover, its fragrance can cause many medicines to mutate, exerting greater effects. For our Breaking Clan, this thing is priceless. I would give my life for it."

Titan laughed and said, "So, you're saying you're willing to join the Tang Clan with us?"

Yang Wudi stared at the Fragrant Silk Immortal Delicacy in his hand, completely mesmerized. "I'm in, I'm in. Why are you arguing so much? I'll go back first thing tomorrow morning, and then I'll bring my people to your place to freeload. Haha, Fragrant Silk Immortal Delicacy."

Niu Gao said helplessly, "It's over, this flower has driven the old goat crazy. Tang San, you're something else."

Titan smiled and said, "Still calling yourself Tang Sanyao? We're all members of the Tang Sect now."

Tang San quickly said, "All of you seniors are my elders, and from now on you will all be elders of the Tang Sect. You can no longer call me Tang San. My elders and friends who are older than me call me Xiao San. Please call me that as well, seniors."

Tang San's words immediately won the unanimous favor of the four clan leaders. After all, they were all over eighty years old, and Bai He was Tang San's great-uncle. It was really a bit awkward for them to call such a twenty-year-old young man "Clan Leader".

Niu Gao laughed, "Alright, it's settled then. We'll move out together first thing tomorrow morning. Old Gorilla, I'll take my people back with you. Old Goat, Old White Bird, you two go back and pack your things, then bring your people over quickly. This time, our four clans can finally unite as one again. Let's see who dares to bully us then. Alright, you all drink first. I'll order the children to start packing now. Let's set off early so that old bastard Huyan Zhen won't even have anyone to take revenge on."

This was a momentous day for both Tang San and the Tang Sect. Xiao Wu was resurrected, no longer in her rabbit form. The four original clans had finally all joined the Tang Sect. From this day forward, everything began to fall into place.

However, trouble soon followed. It wasn't just the four clans that caused Tang San any trouble, but rather Xiao Wu, who had been resurrected and taken human form.

After dinner, when Tang San took Xiao Wu back to their room to rest, Xiao Wu took his hand and naturally got into bed. She quickly took off her clothes, revealing her flawless, snow-white body. She lay down next to Tang San, and under his stunned gaze, closed her eyes and fell asleep. Even in human form, her habit of sleeping seemed unchanged.

This really put Tang San in a lot of fun. When Xiao Wu was first resurrected, he was filled with love and excitement and naturally didn't pay much attention to these details. But now, with Xiao Wu truly naked in front of him, how could a normal man not be moved?

Even though Hu Liena was scantily clad before, she was still clothed. But now, Xiao Wu was completely exposed before him. More importantly, all his love was placed on Xiao Wu. This kind of stimulation was indescribable.

He quickly pulled the blanket over Xiao Wu's body, trying to move away from her, but Xiao Wu pressed herself against him, insisting on touching him. The end result was that Xiao Wu used Tang San's thigh as a pillow, while Tang San spent nearly an hour barely managing to enter a meditative state, enduring this painful yet pleasurable night.

Niu Gao was decisive and efficient. After a night of preparation and packing, the Yu Clan had completed their migration in the morning. Early in the morning, Bai He and Yang Wudi had already left. This was the most chaotic period in the continent's soul master world. Since they had decided to join the Tang Sect, they planned to meet up with the Tang Sect in Tian Dou City as soon as possible.

After lunch, the group embarked on their return journey in a grand procession. Tang San and Xiao Wu, under Ma Hongjun's ambiguous gaze, boarded a carriage alone. A total of over twenty carriages, escorted by members of the Yu Clan, left Longxing City, heading straight for Tiandou City.

The return journey was much slower than the journey there, taking more than twenty days to finally return to Heaven Dou City. Back on their territory, Titan immediately arranged for the Royal Clan to move into the Power Clan's residence. Titan was busy with the accommodation of the three major clans. The acquisition of surrounding residences also needed to be expedited. After all, what was spacious for over two hundred people was now cramped with over a thousand. Moreover, they needed to create multiple areas for cultivation, forging, and alchemy. The entire Power Clan had to be replanned and rebuilt. Of course, with the Royal Clan's involvement, this work would be much easier. On the way back, Titan and Niu Gao discussed the initial design and various plans for the Tang Sect's construction. They had already shown the preliminary design to Tang San, who, admitting he lacked talent in this area, simply left it to the two clan leaders.

Tang San returned to Shrek Academy with Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun. During the twenty-odd days of their journey back, he had developed a tacit understanding with Xiao Wu, who had lost her soul. Xiao Wu was very attached to him, always needing to be by his side and at least have physical contact like holding hands; otherwise, she would panic. As for food, Xiao Wu only ate vegetables, not much different from when she was in her rabbit form. Her sleep time gradually decreased, becoming like a normal person. But what troubled Tang San most was that Xiao Wu didn't like wearing clothes. Tang San suffered countless torments because of this. But to his amusement and dismay, he discovered that after these twenty-odd days of torment, his mental strength seemed to have improved somewhat.

On the way, Tang San specially asked a woman from the Yu clan to help buy clothes for Xiao Wu, all in white, which Xiao Wu liked. There were both inner and outer garments, so at least she wouldn't be going commando anymore. To make Xiao Wu more comfortable, Tang San diligently learned how to braid hair. Although he wasn't quite skilled yet, the scorpion braid he made for Xiao Wu was now quite presentable. Otherwise, wouldn't her long hair always be dragging on the ground? Tang San couldn't bear to cut it for her.

"Third Brother, should we go see our teacher and the master first, or go back to our lodgings?" Ma Hongjun asked Tang San as they entered the academy.

Tang San said, "Let's go see our teachers first. Tell them we're back, and that Xiao Wu has been resurrected."

Ma Hongjun said, "That's good. They'll be overjoyed to know Xiao Wu has been resurrected. We'll be moving to the Tang Sect soon too. Elder Titan said it will take about three months to build the Tang Sect. Third Brother, how about we relax for these three months and go out and have some fun? Hehe."

Tang San glared at him, annoyed. "Going out to play? Sure, but first you need to cultivate your soul power to level 60, and then I'll go with you to the Soul Beast Forest. Besides Xiao Wu, you're the only one who hasn't reached level 60 yet. Don't forget, your martial soul is in no way weaker than anyone else's in terms of innate ability. The fact that you haven't reached the required level means you haven't been very diligent these past few years."

Upon mentioning his soul power level, Ma Hongjun's face immediately fell. "Sigh, I'm different from you guys! You're all in pairs, single-minded. But I've always been alone, too easily distracted. In the city, I can't resist the allure of bright lights and bustling places. I don't have your handsome faces, so what decent girl would want a fat guy like me? Why don't you help me think of a way to get a second soul awakening, so I can be half as handsome as you?"

Hearing Ma Hongjun's words, Tang San couldn't help but feel a bit amused and exasperated. However, what he said was true; among the Shrek Seven Devils, he was the only one truly alone. "Alright, Fatty, stop feeling sorry for yourself. Don't forget, you'll be the Vice Sect Master of our Tang Sect in the future. Looks are nothing compared to inner qualities. Among the younger generation of Soul Masters, you're one of the best. If you work hard to cultivate and become stronger, why would you be afraid of not having a wife?"

Ma Hongjun said, "Third Brother, does that mean if I work hard at my cultivation, you'll be willing to help me?"

Tang San nodded and said, "If I can help you, I will."

Ma Hongjun chuckled and said, "Then it's settled. I'll start cultivating diligently today. After the Min clan migrates here, could you please talk to your great-uncle about marrying Bai Chenxiang to me?"

Tang San chuckled, "Alright, so you were waiting for me here. You've taken a liking to Bai Chenxiang. I'll put in a good word for you with my great-uncle. However, you should be able to tell Bai's status in my great-uncle's heart that she'll likely decide her own marriage. Whether you can win her heart depends on your own abilities. But I don't have much experience in this area, so I can't teach you. You can ask Xiao Ao later. Wasn't he supposed to be quite the charmer back in the day?"

Ma Hongjun curled his lip and said, "Him? He's just talking big. Didn't you see how he's become for Ning Rongrong? If he were truly charming enough, he wouldn't be acting like this. We can't count on him. Even if Boss Dai were here, it would be difficult. He finally managed to win over Zhu Qing, so he probably won't dare to break any rules."

Tang San sighed softly and said, "You're wrong about that. Think about it. If Xiao Ao hadn't been so sincere towards Rongrong, could he have won her over, or even Uncle Ning? He suffered so much during those five years apart. The fact that he's with Rongrong now is the result of his own hard work. You have to give before you receive. I can only teach you the simplest way: give sincerely, treat her wholeheartedly. Whether you succeed or not depends on your sincerity. I believe that relationships between men and women aren't just about looks. Oh, and one more thing, you should lose weight. Maybe you'll be quite handsome after you lose weight."

"Uh... losing weight? That's going to be difficult." Looking at his waistline, which was even larger than his height, the fat man's face immediately fell. "Huh, it's already noon, the students should all be out of class by now, why is there so few people in the academy? Where have they all gone?"

Tang San also noticed that there were unusually few people in the academy today. The two of them had almost reached the playground and still hadn't seen a single student.

As they walked through the tree-lined path, they immediately understood why they hadn't seen anyone along the way. Almost all the Shrek Academy students had gathered on the entire playground, forming a large circle. Shouts and cries could be heard from within the circle, and sensing the fluctuations in soul power, Tang San realized that there seemed to be soul masters fighting inside.

The three walked to the outer circle, which was packed with people, making it impossible for them to see what was happening inside. Ma Hongjun pulled one of the students aside and asked, "What's going on here? Why isn't everyone eating? What are you all doing here?"

The student, who was trying to peek inside by standing on tiptoe, was initially impatient when Ma Hongjun pulled him back. However, when he turned his head and saw the fat man's round face, his impatience vanished instantly, and he said respectfully, "Senior, it's you! Someone came to cause trouble, it's good that you're back."

"Disrupt the event? Someone dares to come to Shrek Academy and disrupt our event? Don't they want to live? Who is this person?" The fat man was furious when he heard this.

The student said, "It seems to be Divine Wind Academy, Blazing Fire Academy, Thunder Academy, and Heavenly Water Academy, known as the Four Elements Academy. They said they're coming to spar with our academy. Aren't they just here to cause trouble? They've brought quite a few people, more than thirty in total. They're currently sparring with our academy's students."

Tang San frowned and asked, "Where are Dean Flander and Master? Why is it so chaotic here? Is no one in charge?"

The student said indignantly, "They really came at the right time. Master isn't here, and Dean Flander, Vice Dean Liu Erlong, and Vice Dean Zhao Wuji took a group of us students who have reached level 30 to hunt soul beasts to upgrade our soul rings. None of our academy's elites are here. So, we just discussed it and decided to have a match with them first. We really can't stand their arrogant attitude."

Ma Hongjun chuckled and said, "Third Brother, let's go in and take a look. These four academies are all old friends. I wonder what their purpose is in coming together this time. Could it be that the Spirit Hall has benefited from this?"

Tang San shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be. Of the five elemental academies, only the Elephant Armor Sect is a lackey of the Spirit Hall. The other four sects mostly remain neutral. And Thunder Academy has always been supported by the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. Now that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan has been wiped out, they have no reason to become accomplices of the Spirit Hall. Let's go in and take a look first."

The fat man nodded and shouted, "Come on, make way, make way, the expert is here. Watch me deal with them."

His shout immediately drew attention. Everyone at Shrek Academy recognized him and Tang San, and they quickly made way for them, allowing Tang San, Ma Hongjun, and Xiao Wu to smoothly enter the inner circle.

An internal match had just ended. A Shrek Academy student, pale-faced and clutching his chest, retreated to the side, clearly having suffered a defeat. His opponent was a young Soul Master in a red school uniform. Judging from his attire, he was from Blazing Fire Academy.

The inner circle was a large open space. Upon arriving here, Tang San and Ma Hongjun couldn't help but show a strange look in their eyes. It was indeed familiar faces, and quite a few of them at that.

The uniforms of the Four Elements Academy made them stand out clearly from Shrek Academy here, with dozens of them standing to one side. Among these dozens of people, at a glance, there were quite a few that Tang San and his companions recognized.
