A/N: I have recovered from my health issues, sadly, my emotional issues has taken it's place. Why? Well f.u.c.k it was Valentine's day yesterday and I was alone the entire day while watching my friends having fun with their other half????
I'm sad and depressed, with the modules included, I almost didn't have the strength to write this. But hell, since I didn't have anything to do, I have to.
Also, I decided that my maybe schedule would be Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday for me to update chapters. Why maybe? Cause I would sometimes feel I don't want to write and update. Like if I feel like it, I would maybe add an extra chapter.
With that said, enjoy the chapter!
P.S. I'm posting this on the WN website cause my WN app isn't responding, again.
====================================================================================
'T-Ten thousand year old spirit ring?!' Everyone thought in shock and disbelief.
Ye Zhi-Qiu's jaw dropped and eyes widened. He rubbed his eyes to try and see of what he is seeing is real.
Still not believing, he pinched his t.h.i.g.h so hard that he cried out in pain.
"Ow!"
Feeling the stinging pain coming from his t.h.i.g.h, Ye Zhi-Qiu has no choice but to believe the impossible in front of him.
A twelve or thirteen year old boy, with the mere cultivation of a spirit grandmaster, has a thousand and ten thousand year old spirit rings!
It's impossible! Truly and incomprehensible matter!
Everyone, whose a spirit master, knew that there is an optimal age of Spirit Ring for every bottleneck that identifies the oldest possible Spirit Ring that can be absorbed without significant risks. Spirit Master can naturally absorb younger Spirit Ring, but the absorption of an older Spirit Ring can result in heavy injuries or even in death upon rejection.
The boy in front of Ye Zhi-Qiu, who has a cultivation of a spirit grandmaster, has one thousand year old spirit ring and ten thousand year old spirit ring! Completely defying everything what common sense of spirit masters have.
Not only that. Ye Zhi-Qiu, although he himself hadn't hunted down and absorbed a ten-thousand year old spirit ring, knew about the affects it had on spirit masters who absorbs one.
Soul shock. It is a special ability that arises when a spirit beast older than 10,000 years is dead, but its soul is yet to be dissipated. If your mind is not m.a.t.u.r.ed and cannot decrease the soul shock from the ring, you will become mentally retarded and have the mental capacity of a 2 year old if you attempt to absorb the spirit ring.
So you can't blame Ye Zhi-Qiu's completely shocked and dumbfounded expression on his face as he stare at Xiao Yan.
Ye Zhi-Qiu hesitated even more now! For a academy to be able to nurture such a monster, they might not be ordinary at all! Age twelve or thirteen, with a cultivation of a spirit grandmaster, he has a thousand and ten thousand year old spirit rings.
Originally he only thought to frighten these youngsters before him once then let it be, after all, he could not want to shoulder the accusation of the old taking unfair advantage of the young, to say nothing of about the mysterious background of the Academy behind these children.
Though jealousy and envy started go sprout within Ye Zhi-Qiu's c.h.e.s.t. He's a spirit king, someone with a high enough cultivation to be known in the Douluo continent, yet he has not been able to get himself a ten thousand year old spirit ring. Instead, a boy fresh out of his mama's milk was able to get one?!
Ye Zhi-Qiu's hands clenched hard, his head raised high and said.
"Fine. I was going to slap your wrists for wrongly beating my students, now, it's–" Ye Zhi-Qiu wasn't able to finish what he was going to say as his instincts screamed at him. Telling him to block the jade colored fist coming to his face!
His eyes widened, the fist coming towards his face, Ye Zhu-Qiu's whole body flourished with black light. His ten year old spirit ring lit up, called the Tortoise Protective Form, his body then rapidly rotating half a turn, revealing the tortoise shell on his back, completely blocking the fist coming at him.
'Fast! What the hell–' Before Ye Zhi-Qiu could think further, the force of fist was so great that it had unexpectedly thrown his entire body back and out of the hall through the window!
*Bang!* The glass shattered and a man with a black shell on his back was thrown out. Causing the surrounding the people to stare in shock.
"Ack!" Ye Zhi-Qiu grunted in slight pain as his back hit the ground hard. The people around where he landed had immediately retreated, afraid that they might get into trouble. But most didn't entirely left. Some just took some great distance away because they wanted to see some good show going on.
"Y-You bastard! What was that for?!" Ye Zhi-Qiu, with some difficulty stood up from the ground, which made some of the surrounding spectators snicker making him more angry than before, and yelled out towards the slowly walking Xiao Yan.
Xiao Yan, completely engulfed by green flames that was shaped like a green fiery lotus, swaggered towards Ye Zhi-Qiu and stopped just several feet away from him. The spectators around them looked at the former with awe as they saw him being bathed in green lotus flower flame.
Xiao Yan shook his head and said.
"Well we we're troubling the owner. I didn't want that so I just thought that we would fight outside, which, coincidentally had you standing by the entrance window." As Xiao Yan said that, the other shrek students and customers came up behind him at the entrance.
Tang San and the others didn't look concern or worried for their friend, but are instead anticipated and excited! After all, Xiao Yan had just thrown a spirit king out of the window with just his fist!
In their first bout, a spirit grandmaster vs a spirit king, Xiao Yan had won in strength with his fist!
Xiao Yan smirked, angling his Heavy Xuan Ruler vertically, he dropped it down to the ground hard, causing it to be embedded into it.
Xiao Yan cupped his hands and said.
"Well let's officially get this started. My name is Xiao Yan, spirit Heavy Xuan Ruler and spirit rank thirty. Also student of Shrek Academy. I hope you can enlightened me senior."
Ye Zhi-Qiu glared at Xiao Yan and soon followed, this was one of the traditional customs of the Douluo continent after all. Introducing yourself, your spirit, and spirit rank when your sparing against an opponent. Not complying to do so would make others scrutinized and look down on you.(A/N: I just read the DD1 and it's legit. Unless it's a serious battle, like fight to the death and stuff, the combatants must do this tradition before starting their fight)
"My name is Ye Zhi-Qiu, spirit Black Tortoise, and spirit rank fifty three." 'I will beat you and your classmates a.s.s.' Ye Zhi-Qiu, cupping his hands, swore inwardly.
A moment later, Ye Zhi-Qiu's second spirit ring lit up, Black Water Freezing. He let out a small roar as black chilly stream of water, like a river, streamed out towards Xiao Yan's body in great speeds.
Although the Xiao Yan's spirit power was out of the ordinary, he is after all still young, his spirit power also had a very large gap with his. Ye Zhi-Qiu believed that relying on releasing his fifty third ranked spirit power's Black Water Freezing, he would be able to directly freeze his entire body to a halt.
But who was Xiao Yan? He is someone who has a heavenly flame! A flame that could not be affected by any of the other basic elements, and only elements that had reached the ultimate attribute could.
The Green Lotus Core Flame moved like it was alive. It had immediately burned the black freezing water into air.
Ye Zhi-Qiu, and some of the spectators, including the only female and male students of Blue Sunshine Academy who now recovered, stared with wide eyes and jaw lowered at that scene. The man and the others didn't understand how Xiao Yan had burned his water to air! It didn't turned into steam, like any normal collision between fire and water, but air!
'How?!' Ye Zhi-Qiu thought in shock as he stared at Xiao Yan's narrowed eyes.
"Was that it?" Xiao Yan's voice sounded in Ye Zhi-Qiu's ears.
"Then, it's my turn."
Purple light flashed in Xiao Yan's black tinted green eyes, Purple Demon Eyes activated, he gripped his Heavy Xuan Ruler with two hands, taking it out of the ground, and jumped towards Ye Zhi-Qiu with great speed.
Rotating his body, Xiao Yan, with the Heavy Xuan Ruler in hand, slam his weapon towards Ye Zhi-Qiu horizontally.
Ye Zhi-Qiu's eyes dilated and quickly, he used his first and third spirit ring abilities simultaneously. Tortoise Protective Form, his body then rapidly rotating half a turn, revealing the tortoise shell on his back, and mouth wide, a black cold stream spit directly towards Xiao Yan's Heavy Xuan Ruler, his third spirit ring ability, Black Water Surge.
Because of the adrenaline and panic he was having, Ye Zhi-Qiu forgot that his water couldn't affect Xiao Yan's body due to his green flames.
And so, Ye Zhi-Qiu's black water was extinguished by Xiao Yan's flames, with the latter's Heavy Xuan Ruler smashing into the former's shell with great vigor.
"Ack!" Ye Zhi-Qiu's closed his eyes and his lips dripped blood. He felt his entire body being jumbled by the force of the Heavy Xuan Ruler.
"Impossible!" Ye Zhi-Qiu and his students yelled out in shock and disbelief.
While the students of Shrek let out sounds of being impressed and awe.
Oscar turned towards Tang San and asked.
"Hey Tang San, is it really that impressive for Xiao Yan to crack that teacher's shell?"
Tang San nodded and said.
"Yes. That's teacher's spirit is the black tortoise right? It could be said that it is just below the potential power as senior Dai Mubai's white tiger spirit. You must have heard about the four sacred beasts right?"
Oscar's eyes lit up in realization, he nodded, and said.
"A legend long past. The four divine beasts, said that guards the four corners of the world. They are the Azure Dragon of the East, the Vermilion Bird of the South, the White Tiger of the West, and the Black Tortoise of the North. It said that they rule over the animals related to their species. Isn't it just a myth? Also, isn't that teacher's spirit quiet different to the one related to that story?"
Tang San nodded and explained even further.
"Yeah. That's why I said his spirit is below senior Dai Mubai's. It could be said that it is also the closest to what the real Black Tortoise is like. So you can easily imagine other people's as Xiao Yan's spirit can crack something that has the closest relation to the divine beast Black Tortoise, which said to have a indestructible defense."
Oscar turned back towards Xiao Yan and Ye Zhi-Qiu's fight, muttering.
"Well shit."
Tang San nodded, feeling the same way.
Gritting his teeth, Ye Zhi-Qiu tried to gain back his equilibrium. His eyes staring at Xiao Yan's excited eyes, he shouted.
"How?!"
Hearing Ye Zhi-Qiu's voice filled with confusion and disbelief, had put a grin on Xiao Yan's face.
"How? You ask? Well..." Xiao Yan paused, he put more strength in his spirit, which caused the shell of Ye Zhi-Qiu to create more cracks, he continued.
"Well, that would be telling ain't it?" The truth is, Xiao Yan's Heavy Xuan Ruler is more heavy than anyone realizes.
When Xiao Yan's spirit power had reached 10, his Heavy Xuan Ruler had only weighed 10kg. But when his spirit power had reached 20? Instead of adding a extra 10, it multiplied into 10!
Xiao Yan had to deactivated his spirit the second he called for it. It had weighed 100kg! Something only those of Spirit Ancestor or higher could carry!
It was only thanks to grandmaster's help, telling Xiao Yan that it was his spirit and he would be the one to always control it.
Hence, Xiao Yan could only feel a fraction of it while the others feel it's true weight of 100kg.
That was when he had a spirit rank of 20, now that he has achieved thirtieth rank, what does the others feel? 100kg multiplied by ten, what's the result?
1,000kg of weight. That was what Ye Zhi-Qiu is currently under.
More cracks appeared on Ye Zhi-Qiu's shell as Xiao Yan's Heavy Xuan Ruler continued to bring it down. Though the latter also used his heavenly flame to form a single small green lotus.
The lotus was then sent underneath Ye Zhi-Qiu's feet, which he felt and had quickly looked down in confusion.
Probably because he was still feeling the backlash of his shell having cracked, Ye Zhi-Qiu hadn't felt the amount of spirit power hidden inside that small green lotus.
Ye Zhi-Qiu was even further confused as Xiao Yan had jumped back off.
Suddenly, a bad feeling started to surface in his mind. But Ye Zhi-Qiu was too late as Xiao Yan snapped his fingers and said.
"Explode."
*BOOM!* A small volcanic eruption, which gushed green molten flames, below Ye Zhi-Qiu's feet. Causing the man to be sent up high into the sky.
"FUUUUUCCCKKKK!!!" Ye Zhi-Qiu's angry voice was heard up high as he cursed.
This was one of the abilities of the Green Lotus Core Flame, volcanic eruption. As it was born beneath the earth, it of course have the ability to cause volcanic eruption.
"Teacher!" The students of Blue Sunshine Academy shouted in concern as they all stared at their teacher being flown up high into the sky.
They further watched in horror as Xiao Yan jumped high, and like it was a game of baseball, he then smacked their teacher away like a fly!
"TEACHER!!" As they shouted, the students then ran towards the direction to where their teacher had gone.
Xiao Yan then got back down, of course in a superhero landing, and faced his friends.
"Well? Who won the bet?" Xiao Yan asked with a raised eyebrow. He just knew that they would bet on how long he would beat the shit of out the teacher.
Ma Hongjun, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Xun Er all shown victorious smiles and gave Xiao Yan a thumbs up. While the others had gloomy expressions.
Xiao Yan smiled and shook his head. He immediately deactivated his spirit and head back inside along with his friends.
While also hiding his two trembling and numb hands, Xiao Yan thought with a grimace.
'As I thought, it really isn't easy to disregard twenty spirit power of gap between us. His defense had almost broken my hands from how hard it was.' Glancing at his friends, Xiao Yan let out a sigh. He circulated his spirit power and inner strength to stop and heal his hands.
Unknown to Xiao Yan, Zhao Wuji, who was watching the entire thing, had let a snort and shook his head. Returning to eat his meal while thinking.
'Looks like I didn't have to intervene, that boy's as monstrous as ever.'
Zhao Wuji's eyes narrowed.
'You as well don't have to intervene as well.'
Atop the hotel the Shrek students and Zhao Wuji are currently staying at, strangely, the entire roof was completely covered in ice and frost. A person wearing completely black stood in the middle of that frozen roof tiles and let out a snort.
"The young master is just like his father and surrogate grandfather, troublesome bastards." The person's voice was that of a male with a cold tone.
A moment later, he disappeared in a flurry of snow.
