An abstract trainer who taught Charmander the Incinerate move

Chapter 235 Titled Battle Master, Tang Long's Rise (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Who?!"

Zhao Taiji's massive bear-like body jolted violently, instantly springing up from the prayer mat!

The languidness in its copper bell-like bear eyes vanished, and a terrifying aura of a Soul Saint erupted like a volcano awakening, as it warily scanned every corner of the stone chamber!
Inside the stone chamber, there was no one but itself, and no signs of intrusion!

The newcomer was able to conceal his figure and aura so perfectly, as if he had become one with the shadows. This was something no ordinary person could do!
Zhao Taiji's Adam's apple bobbed, and he subconsciously swallowed, a fine layer of cold sweat beading on his forehead.

In its early years, relying on its powerful [Martial Arts Bear Master] martial spirit and its fiery and straightforward personality, it offended many forces and powerful figures when it roamed the Doujing Continent.

The Power Clan's Thunderous Ape Clan, who spend all their time playing on slides; the Elephant Clan's Thick-skinned, Tyrannical Bronze Elephant Clan; and all sorts of other enemies that it can barely remember...

Its brain worked at lightning speed, filtering out potential enemies one by one, and its heart sank little by little.

Who exactly are these newcomers? Their strength is so unfathomable; they must be up to no good!
Just when Zhao Taiji was at his most tense and at his wit's end...

"No need to look anymore, I'm right in front of you."

The hoarse voice rang out again, tinged with obvious impatience.

Zhao Taiji was startled and lowered his head as instructed, his huge bear eyes widening instantly!

Before its enormous bear paws stood a mysterious figure draped in a wide black robe!

The reason I didn't notice it at all earlier is because... this guy is just too short!
It only reached up to its knees, and standing in front of its massive body, it was like an inconspicuous stone, perfectly blending into the shadows. No wonder it had ignored it several times when its gaze swept over it!

Zhao Taiji: "..."

Before it could recover from this extreme contrast, the short, mysterious man in black robes spoke, his voice still hoarse, yet carrying an air of domineering arrogance.

"Don't just stand there like an idiot, Zhao Taiji. I'm not here for anything else today, I just don't like you and came here specifically to teach you a lesson. Get ready to get beaten up, I'm in a hurry."

"Wh...what?!"

Zhao Taiji was stunned for a moment, then an indescribable rage instantly overwhelmed all its reason!

It is a seven-ring Soul Saint, the vice dean of the Giant Hanging Academy. In this Noxus province, and even in the entire Doujing Continent, how many people dare to show off in front of it?
This short, stocky creature, barely reaching its knees, dared to speak to it in such a tone? And even threatened to teach it a lesson?!
"You fucking want to die!!!"

Zhao Taiji let out a deafening roar, and the terrifying pressure of the Soul Saint level crushed down on the black-robed figure like a tsunami!

Damn you shorty, I'll slap you so hard you'll be turned into a pancake!

However, just as its paw was about to strike—

Buzz—! ! ! !

An indescribable, terrifying pressure, like a primordial beast that had been dormant for millennia suddenly awakening, erupted with a deafening roar centered on the short, black-robed figure!
Click——!
The stone chamber's floor, walls, and ceiling were instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks!
The air seemed to freeze, and time seemed to stand still!
Zhao Taiji’s overwhelming aura was like a firefly compared to the bright moon in the face of this pressure, and was instantly crushed!
Its massive paw froze in mid-air, its huge face filled with utter horror and disbelief, its pupils contracting wildly with fear!
Behind the black-robed figure, nine dazzling soul rings, seemingly bearing the laws of heaven and earth, slowly emerged and pulsed like demonic suns rising from the deepest hell!
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, red!

The first seven spirit rings were similar in color to Zhao Taiji's, but the last spirit ring completely overturned Zhao Taiji's understanding!

The ninth spirit ring... that was actually... a 100,000-year-old red spirit ring that exuded an aura that sent shivers down one's spine!

This short, black-robed figure was none other than a titled Dou Jing, standing at the pinnacle of the Dou Jing Continent!
Under this earth-shattering pressure, Zhao Taiji felt as insignificant as a small boat in a raging storm, and even breathing became extremely difficult. How could he dare to have the slightest thought of fighting?
All the anger was instantly extinguished by the cold fear, leaving only boundless awe and horror!

The figure in black robes seemed quite pleased with Zhao Taiji's reaction. A small paw emerged from the wide sleeves of the robe and slowly lifted the hood.

Beneath the hood was none other than Tang Ritian, the pink-haired old man who spent his days drinking in the blacksmith's shop in Shengjing Village!

In its claws, it held a giant hammer that was taller and thicker than its entire body, with its head covered in mysterious patterns!

The mere existence of that giant hammer exuded a terrifying aura that could destroy everything and rage across the world!
"Pink...pink...giant hammer...titled battle spirit..."

Zhao Taiji's teeth were chattering as he blurted out a title so terrifying it froze his soul.

"【Sun God Fighting Spirit】...Tang...Tang Sun God?!!"

It recognized him! This was none other than one of the most legendary and powerful titled Dou Jing on the Dou Jing Continent!

Tang Ritian, the Steel Demon Supreme, possesses the world's number one weapon spirit, the Sun Hammer, and is known for his unparalleled attack power!

It’s over! Completely finished!
Zhao Taiji felt a heat in his crotch, and a warm current flowed down uncontrollably.

The opponent is not only a peerless expert at the titled Battle Master level, but also has a natural counter in terms of martial soul attribute!

That hammer blow deals four times the damage! How can it possibly withstand that?! Even if it had a hundred lives, it wouldn't be enough to survive!

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty! Spare me! Spare me!"

Zhao Taiji instantly cowered, his massive bear-like body collapsing to his knees with a thud, kowtowing repeatedly, his voice trembling with sobs.

"I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness! I don't know where I offended you, Your Majesty. Please be merciful and just let me go!"

Just as Zhao Taiji was terrified and begging for mercy—

Swish!
A figure appeared silently between Zhao Taiji and Tang Ritian as if by teleportation.

The newcomer was also wearing a long robe, but the style was more luxurious. He was tall and slender, giving off a sense of composure and wisdom.

Most notably, seven dazzling soul rings also shimmered behind it, demonstrating its powerful strength at the peak of the Soul Saint realm!

Its head is that of an owl with sharp eyes that seem to see through everything.

This spirit is none other than the dean of the Giant Hanging Academy, whose martial soul is the owl night hawk, Bigdock!
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger."

Dean Bigdick's voice was calm and steady, carrying a hint of an attempt to mediate the conflict.

"I am Bigdick, the dean of this academy. Vice Dean Zhao is straightforward and may have offended you before, but I think there must have been some misunderstanding. The Giant Hanging Academy and Your Majesty seem to have no enmity, so why make such a fuss?"

It attempted to reason with people and ease the tense situation.

However, Tang Ritian merely glanced at Bigdick with his dead fish eyes, slightly raised the Sun Hammer in his hand, and spoke in a cold tone devoid of any emotion.

"Misunderstanding? I said I'd beat it up, so I'll beat it up. If you say another word, I'll beat you up too."

Dean Bigdick's sharp, owl-like eyes froze instantly.

With a swift, effortless sidestep, it vanished into a corner of the stone chamber, perfectly concealing itself in the shadows as if it had never been there. "Your Majesty, please proceed. I was merely passing by."

Bigdick's voice drifted from the corner, perfectly illustrating the saying "a wise man submits to circumstances."

Zhao Taiji: "???"

Seeing the dean cower in fear, the glimmer of hope that had just risen in its heart was instantly shattered, plunging it into utter despair.

The next moment, Tang Ritian moved!
It didn't even use its terrifying Sun Hammer Martial Soul; it simply slammed the giant hammer onto the ground.

Boom! The entire stone chamber trembled violently once again.

Then, its small, pink figure vanished like a ghost!

Zhao Taiji only felt a blur before his eyes, and an irresistible force slammed into its soft belly!

"vomit--!"

Zhao Taiji's enormous bear eyes bulged out instantly, and the acid in his stomach mixed with the previous wine gushed out violently!

Immediately afterwards, a barrage of attacks followed!

Tang Ritian's attacks were completely unpredictable, yet they were faster than the limits of visual perception, and their power was outrageously great!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Thud! Smack!
"Ouch——!"

"Hmph! Ahhhhhh—!"

"Ooh ooh ooh ooh—!"

Zhao Taiji's screams grew more and more shrill as it tried to block and circulate its soul power to defend itself, but all resistance was futile in the face of Tang Ritian's absolute strength and speed!
Its massive body was like a giant, broken sandbag, being beaten so badly it flew through the air, crashing into the stone wall and bouncing back, only to be met with an even more ferocious beating!
In just a few breaths, the once majestic Soul Saint Zhao Taiji was now bruised and swollen, lying on the ground, his bones feeling like they had been broken, with only the strength to twitch and no strength left to even groan.

Tang Ritian flicked his little paws, as if he had just swatted away a fly.

It strolled over to the dying Zhao Taiji, kicked its massive bear head, and spoke in its usual nonchalant tone.

“Hey, stop playing dead. Listen up, that green worm you taught a lesson to today is called Tang Snake, and she’s my daughter.”

"Wha...what?!"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Taiji felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His massive bear body trembled violently, and he instantly understood why this wicked star had suddenly come knocking on his door!
It struggled to lift its head, its face filled with terror and regret, and hurriedly explained incoherently.

"So...so you're His Majesty's daughter! A misunderstanding! A huge misunderstanding! I didn't know you were your daughter, and I offended you greatly during the test! I deserve to die! I..."

It assumed that Tang Ritian had come to confront it because it had attacked Tang She.

However, Tang Ritian abruptly interrupted it, a clear hint of resentment and displeasure flashing in the dead fish's eyes, as it angrily cursed:
"Bullshit! Who said that to you?! I just thought you were being too lenient! Like tickling me! Listen to me!"

It leaned closer to Zhao Taiji, its voice low but carrying a chilling undertone.

“From now on, in this Giant Duck Academy, you keep a close eye on that little female snake! Kill her! Be as ruthless as you can! Understand?! If I find out you dare to go easy on her, or let her live too comfortably…”

Tang Ritian patted the Sun Hammer stuck in the ground, and a cold light flashed on the hammerhead.

"I'll come here myself and kill you two old bastards!"

Zhao Taiji and Dean Bigdick in the corner exchanged bewildered glances, completely unable to comprehend the thought process of this oddball with the title of "Fighting Spirit".

There are fathers who ask others to torture their daughters to death? What kind of grudge could that be?
But looking at the terrifying Sun Hammer and Tang Ritian's dead fish eyes that were not at all joking, a strong will to survive instantly took over!

"I understand! I understand! I absolutely understand!"

Ignoring the excruciating pain all over his body, Zhao Taiji nodded his bear head like a chicken pecking at rice.

Dean Bigdick also quickly emerged from the shadows and bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty, rest assured! I, Bigdick, in the name of the Dean, guarantee that from this day forward, I will give Miss Tang She... uh, special care! I will make sure she experiences the hardships of the path to growth!"

"Hmph, that's pretty much it."

Tang Ritian seemed satisfied. He snorted, picked up the Ritian Hammer from the ground, and casually slung it over his shoulder.

It didn't even bother to look at Zhao Taiji sprawled on the ground and Bigdick, who was smiling obsequiously beside him. With a flicker, it vanished silently from the stone chamber like a ghost, as if it had never existed.

Only the two deans of the Giant Hanging Academy remained, staring at each other amidst the mess and the lingering terrifying pressure, cold sweat pouring down their faces.

[Cut! - The second act of "Battle Spirit Continent" comes to an end!]

Having absorbed the thrilling combat experience from the God King's Secret Realm with Zhao Taiji, Tang Snake slowly coiled up in the shadows, its snake eyes seemingly swirling with countless lights and shadows.

It savors every struggle and choice it made under the oppressive power of the sage, a struggle that brought it close to death.

Although its soul power level remained unchanged at level 27, it could clearly feel that its understanding and application of the Silver Grass Martial Soul had reached a completely new level!

It suddenly realized that only in a true life-or-death struggle could it maximize its combat potential and complete the fastest transformation!

Master Xiao Gang's decision to send it to the Giant Hanger Academy was indeed a brilliant move with profound implications!

Now it has further developed its martial soul power, and it is not afraid at all even when facing that blue-skinned dog!

However, when its gaze fell upon Mo Zhen not far away, an overwhelming sense of resentment instantly overwhelmed its understanding.

There stood a large, orange-red figure—Tang Long—slumped undignifiedly amidst a pile of empty wooden barrels, frantically stuffing various tree fruits into its seemingly bottomless mouth with its two claws.

Lingyu fruit, Leba fruit, Luozi fruit... were swallowed whole like flowing water. Its huge belly heaved violently with each swallow, making it look exactly like a glutton cursed by hunger for thousands of years!

What surprised Tang She was that, although this fat dragon was a good-for-nothing who did nothing but eat and sleep all day, the life energy emanating from its body was becoming more and more powerful every day!
Not long ago, Tang She could clearly sense that the energy levels of the two sides were roughly equal, and he even had a slight advantage thanks to the profoundness of the Xuan Tian Gong.

But now, the energy contained within that fat dragon is showing signs of surpassing it!

How can this be? !
Tang She's astonishing wisdom was running wildly, and he felt utterly absurd and bewildered.

It possesses the inheritance of the Divine King's Secret Realm and cultivates the unique Xuan Tian Gong secret technique, which allows it to absorb the soul power of heaven and earth at a speed that is ten times or even nine times faster than ordinary elves!
And what did that fat dragon do?
Besides showing off its food like an idiot, it just lies sprawled out and sleeps soundly. How can it possibly be progressing faster than me in my cultivation?
The tricks involved here are definitely not as simple as they seem on the surface!
Its cold, vertical pupils stared intently at Tang Long's obese body, which trembled with each chew, trying to see through its hidden secrets.

But even if it wanted to break through the snake's skin, it would never have imagined that behind the other party's seemingly foolish and gluttonous behavior, they were actually carrying out an extremely profound and ancient task—refining medicine!
