“Follow the plan in the match. Try your utmost, and if you can’t do it, put your own safety first.”
“Yes.”
“Then good, depart.”
Grandmaster swung his hand to everyone.
At this moment, a voice suddenly blocked them,
“Wait a moment.”
Grandmaster looked distracted, gazing in the direction of that voice,
“Flender, you still have something to add?”
Today, Flender’s expression was extraordinarily grave.
Ever since the Shrek Seven Devils had let him earn enough profit to fill both pots and jars in this tournament, he’d always had a smile on his face. But right now his smile was gone.
Walking in front of the devils, he first arranged the lapels of Dai Mubai who stood in front, afterwards turning to all seven:
“Children. For you, this the final fight of your graduation. Honestly, to have fostered talents like you, I feel very fortunate. And also extremely proud. There is no lack of banquets under Heaven, Shrek Academy is unable to always help you grow. Your future path, is all up to you to walk by yourselves.”
“I said before that I won’t let you graduate unless you were the final champions. That’s just a joke, no need to take it seriously. What I want to tell you right now is that, no matter the outcome, you are all my pride, and also all my children. I won’t let any one of you become casualties in the last moment of the tournament. The championship isn’t important. What’s important, is you yourselves. I don’t want a victorious result, but rather your safe return. Well, I’ve said enough.”
Ma Hongjun said:
“Teacher, how come your eyes are red?”
“Ah? It’s dust.”
Flender immediately turned around. Grandmaster was the director of the Shrek Academy team, but as dean, he had clearly seen the effort these children had made each day. Of course he knew that the great effort of the Shrek Seven Devils in this tournament wasn’t all to temper themselves, but even more to bring this great glory to Shrek Academy before graduating.
Just like he said, each of the Shrek Seven Devils was like his own child. Before these ultimate finals, on the verge of confronting that kind of power, Flender couldn’t keep from expressing his true feelings.
In his heart, money was admittedly important, but no amount of gold could be exchanged for these seven little monsters in front of him.
Tang San smiled faintly,
“Dean Flender, others would hold a pep talk for the competing students, but aren’t you making us feel discouraged? Don’t worry. We’d all hate to die. Even more, there’s still those three spirit bones to make us drool with desire.”
Part 3 (TL by Bagelson)
Grandmaster patted Flender’s shoulder, his ordinarily languid gaze abruptly becoming severe,
“Let’s go.”
Striding forward with heads high, the Shrek Seven Devils left the residence. On the street, a lot of Spirit Masters silently watched them from the sides of the road. Even though the spirit power of these children perhaps wasn’t much, with their age, challenging the Spirit Hall Academy team, all of it made these Spirit Masters waiting for the battle secretly admire them.
In front of Supreme Pontiff Palace, Tang San suddenly discovered that with each step he climbed, his feet become incomparably firm. He had never thirsted for victory like now. He knew that, if they lost the match today, he would definitely regret it for a lifetime.
The sunlight brought a golden radiance to Supreme Pontiff Palace. Everyone’s gazes became serious, watching the Shrek Seven Devils walk step by step over the stones, the atmosphere seemingly thickening.
The Supreme Pontiff, Ning Fengzhi, and the three Title Douluo spectating yesterday were already seated, the three spirit bone prizes laying in a red brocade tray to the side, releasing a faint halo of light.
The Spirit Hall Academy team stood there silently, an intense murderous spirit pressing towards the Shrek Seven Devils just like knives. Under the effect of this enormous pressure, the Shrek Seven Devils’ pace up the hill clearly slowed a bit. The match still hadn’t started, but both sides were already crossing swords.
“The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament finals are about to begin, both sides prepare. The match will start in a quarter of an hour.”
Both sides returned to their positions, the Shrek Seven Devils circling around Grandmaster. Tang San stretched his hand into the Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse, taking out seven rolled up dark green leaves. He ate one, and handed over one to each of the others.
Foundation building Dragon Zoysia leaf, taking it would not only increase healing speed, provoking rapid spirit power recover, but at the same time could also make people’s mind even more focused. Eating it right now before the match was in order to maintain peak condition even longer in the fight.
“Little San.”
Dai Mubai looked at Tang San.
Tang San gave him a firm nod,
“Don’t worry. No issues on my side. For the rest, I’ll leave it to you.”
Grandmaster took the lead to raise his right fist, and the each of the Shrek Seven Devils equally raised their hands. Eight hands piled together, at the same time as a gargantuan shout,
“Certain victory!”
Yes, certain victory. This was their only belief.
On the other side, the Spirit Hall Academy team suddenly heard the shout on the Shrek Academ side, and team captain Xie Yue couldn’t help curling his lips, sneering,
“Certain victory? We’ll let them have a look at true strength today. The gap in spirit power is an impassable gulf. Even the lowest ranked Spirit Master among us is on the same level as their captain. I want to see their basis for certain victory.”
Sweeping an ice cold gaze across his companions, Xie Yue said coldly:
“The Lord Supreme Pontiff is watching, the elders are also watching. We must not only gain victory in this match, but still a complete victory. Don’t give them any chances. I’ll deal with that Tang San. Who are we?”
“Cham——pions——”
An even more intense bellow echoed from the Spirit Hall Academy team.
Both sides’ refusal to yield made the Spirit Masters watching below the hill feel like their blood was boiling, who hadn’t been young? Who hadn’t been hot-blooded? To them, the outcome of this match wasn’t important, what was important was to be able to see a brilliant fight.
A quarter of an hour wasn’t long, and very soon the members of both sides walked into the plaza at the prompting of the referee. Perhaps it was in order to oppose needle with needle and spear with spear against Shrek Academy, but today the Spirit Hall Academy team had changed to fiery red uniforms embroidered with golden thread, clearly of excellent quality.
Compared to them, Shrek Academy’s snot green, and moreover covered with countless advertising logos, uniforms were ridiculous.
However, nobody would laugh at them. Capable of taking this step forward, capable of entering the finals of the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, nobody would sneer at their strength.
“Prepare for the match, both sides can release spirits.”
The cardinal referee announced as soon as both sides were in position.
The fourteen members of both sides looked face to face. Nobody said a word, but the collision of auras made the smell of gunpowder in the air rise to the limit in an instant. At this moment, even respected powers like Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong had their gazes completely focused on this match.
The seven Spirit Hall Academy members moved practically simultaneously, surging spirit power erupting from their bodies in a flash.
Of Xie Yue’s trio standing furthest ahead, each had a glittering two yellow, two purple, and one black ideal spirit ring configuration. The other four behind them also had two yellow and two purple optimal allocations. The expression in each person’s eyes became extremely persistent. One of the male students standing furthest in
the rear swiftly retreated a step, a glorious golden scepter in his hands. Most certainly, he possessed a support model tool spirit.
At the same time as they released their spirits, the Shrek Seven Devils’ side simultaneously started to release theirs. The seven stood in order, Tang San and Dai Mubai furthest in front, and behind them separately stood Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun and Xiao Wu, with Ning Rongrong and Oscar in the last line, assuming a two-three-two formation.
Entirely different from the last match, this time Shrek Academy didn’t use the seven fusion ability, but rather extremely normally released their spirits simultaneously.
Seven people, all with four spirit rings. Of course, drawing the most attention was still Tang San with the ten thousand year spirit ring.
Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong’s brows wrinkled slightly, unconsciously turning to look in Grandmaster’s direction, thinking in her heart, ‘Xiao Gang, you really changed formation again.’
Grandmaster didn’t look at her, only concentrating his attention to watch the circumstances in the ring. His expression was no longer calm. Regarding this match, he also didn’t hold absolute certainty.
“Match start.”
As he declared the start of this Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament’s final finals, the cardinal speedily withdrew, vacating the ring.
The first of the Spirit Hall team to move wasn’t the team captain Xie Yue furthest in front, but rather his little sister Hu Liena.
Stepping lightly and gracefully, Hu Liena only seemed to turn her body, but had already reached furthest in front. A faint smile floated onto her face, and along with the release of her spirit, she seemed to become beautiful, and a great fuzzy tail still sprouted behind her.
Faint red light appeared from her body, light flashing in the pupils of her eyes. Looking at Tang San, her movements were exactly the same as the time she dealt with Heaven Dou Imperial Academy team’s Yu Tian-Heng. That unique charm made people unable to think of pulling their eyes away from her.
But somewhat startling to Hu Liena was that, confronted with the release of her spirit, the Shrek Seven Devils remained unmoved. Apart from Tang San and Xiao Wu, the other five swiftly closed their eyes and used their fingers to stop up their ears, completely isolating themselves from sight and hearing.
Even the best charm ability needed a trigger; hearing, sight, taste, smell, touch, sensation. They were released through one of the six, and right now, the venues Hu Liena could influence the Shrek Seven Devils lacked sight and hearing. The smooth movements of the Shrek Seven Devils undoubtedly made her charm lose effect.
Xiao Wu suddenly stepped forward, giving Hu Liena a smile, her second spirit ring flashing with pink light. Her eyes were already completely pink. Soft Bones Demon Rabbit’s second spirit ability, Charm, launched.
Using charm against charm, the one with the greatest spirit power would hold the advantage.
Xiao Wu and Hu Liena groaned practically simultaneously. Hu Liena only swayed once, but Xiao Wu too three steps back, her face deathly pale, two streaks of blood flowing down like little snakes from her nose, clearly it was her loss. In spirit power and mental strength, there was still a large gap between her and Hu Liena.
Even though Xiao Wu was injured, she had undoubtedly broken Hu Liena’s initiative. Face changing slightly, Hu Liena immediately moved.
And at this moment, standing furthest ahead in the team, Tang San also put his hand behind his back to catch the pink ray of light Oscar flung at him, stepping forward with large strides, heading straight for the seven on the other side. At the same time, six strands of Blue Silver Grass rushed out of his right hand, each twisting around the waists of his seven companions. Blue Silver Grass control, was already in full swing.
Hu Liena looked coldly at the advancing Tang San, her five spirit ring flickering extremely rhythmically once. First that black fifth spirit ring, then the fourth, third, second, all the way to the final yellow first spirit ring. As each spirit ring pulsed, the pink light around her would become even more intense. Behind her, Xie Yue also moved at this moment.
Xie Yue’s Moon Blade wasn’t one, but rather two. Two entirely blood red, half moon shaped crescents, his hands each holding a moon blade. Along with his body moving now, he extended both hands, and unexpectedly full body tackled his little sister from behind.
At this moment, two yellow lights simultaneously shot out from the scepter in the hands of the Spirit Hall Academy team’s support type Spirit Master, the golden light glittering, and swiftly merging with Xie Yue and Hu Liena.
A curtain of red light suddenly appeared, spread. The instant Xie Yue and Hu Liena collided, that red light wrapped the two of them within.
And at the same time, that red light also erupted in a flash, spreading like a red sphere, covering close to half the stage.

Chapter 127: Shrek Seven Devils’ Complete Strength
Part 1 (TL by Bagelson)
The Shrek Seven Devils were completely enveloped, and right now, there was still a thirteen meter distance from Tang San to them.
The red light screen didn’t need time to rise like last time, under the assistance of their comrade, in just an instant, the light strengthened to its peak. Xie Yue and Hu Liena’s spirit fusion ability, Charm Demon, launched.
The Spirit Hall Academy team of course knew that the Shrek Seven Devils had already seen this ability, but they had enough confidence in themselves. Spirit fusion abilities and fusion abilities were two completely different concepts, the spirit fusion ability didn’t have any weakness, and their powers were moreover entirely different. Just as Grandmaster said, the spirit fusion ability used by two Spirit Kings could absolutely compare to the might of a seventieth ranked Spirit Sage for a short while.
Red light flickering, two people changing into one, long hair floating, whether male or female seemingly undistinguishable.
Hair already turned red, this figure formed from Xie Yue and Hu Liena danced quietly. Two Moon Blades more than doubled in size flickered with a flowing rainbow kind of luster at the ends of the spread arms. Along with that surge of red light intensifying, this silhouette instantly disappeared in a thick red fog coming from behind, and the Shrek Seven Devils were also completely enveloped in the thick fog.
The Spirit Hall Academy team didn’t have a control type Spirit Master in the true sense of the word, but their control capability was unprecedentedly powerful. The cause of this was all because of this spirit fusion ability, Charm Demon.
The greatest characteristic of this spirit fusion ability was control. Within the range the Charm Demon could control, everyone’s senses were reduced by fifty percent, spirit power suppressed by fifty percent, and all movements delayed by fifty percent.
It could be said to force the opponents into an impasse in an instant. That thick red fog was mixed with ruthless energy and psychedelic special capabilities. Aside from the three types of negative conditions, most dreadful was that within this red fog, only Xie Yue and Hu Liena, using the spirit fusion ability, co
uld see things. Suddenly losing vision would undoubtedly put people’s minds in chaos, and would moreover be comprehensively weakened. How many opponents even of the same level as Xie Yue and the others had fallen to this spirit fusion ability was unknown. This spirit ability was enough to compare to the seventh spirit ability of common Spirit Masters.
Watching the Shrek Seven Devils being swallowed by the red fog without the seven fusion ability, the other Spirit Hall Academy team members couldn’t help revealing cold smiles. And Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong’s expression also became a bit gentler.
Ning Fengzhi’s brows tightened. He didn’t understand whether the situation in front of him was Grandmaster’s plan. If it was, then why would Grandmaster do it? Entering deep within the spirit fusion ability, that wasn’t a good thing in any way. How could they still fight while comprehensively weakened? None of the Shrek Seven Devils showed any intention of interrupting the opponents’ spirit fusion ability.
Grandmaster’s gaze shifted to Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong who was focused on the match, secretly thinking, ‘You can’t see why I let them do this. The weak defeating the strong requires extraordinary methods. What about a spirit fusion ability? Even if it’s control, it’s only weakening control, not a comprehensive amplification.’
Entering the pink range, the Shrek Seven Devils clearly felt their bodies growing heavier, their perception immediately slowing, even raising a hand or moving a leg seemed to be obstructed by invisible barriers, becoming a lot more difficult.
But none of them panicked. The instant before the red fog hit them, besides Tang San, the Battle Spirit Masters among the other six immediately crowded around Ning Rongrong and Oscar. And Oscar was still as if nothing had happened, still manufacturing his sausages.
Dangdang, two crisp sounds echoed in the red mist. At the same time came a neither male nor female exclamation of surprise.
