Chapter 205 For the first time, Tang San feels strange! (Fifth update!)
"Excuse me?!"
Hearing Lin Ye's words, the leader teacher of Canghui College couldn't help but glanced at Lin Ye strangely.
But although he felt a little weird in his heart, seeing Lin Ye's gorgeous clothes and handsome appearance, and when he said this, he was very confident.
It is estimated that either the strength is very strong, or the background is very strong. The leader teacher of Canghui College agreed after thinking about it.
"Okay! Then I will give you a face! Since these two boys insulted our Canghui Academy, then I will only look for these two boys, but if the rest of them are unwilling, then don't blame me!"
"Then thank you sir!"
Lin Ye smiled lightly at the team leader of Canghui Academy and cupped his fists.
"My name is Ye Zhiqiu, and I am the director of the Foreign Affairs Department of Canghui College. I wonder who this young master is?"
Seeing Lin Ye showing face so much, Ye Zhiqiu also cupped his hands at Lin Ye and asked.
"My name is Lin Ye, and I don't have any background, so I don't need to introduce it!"
Lin Ye smiled faintly.
But Ye Zhiqiu didn't believe Lin Ye's words.
Because since Lin Ye said that he was friends with the other children in front of him, it proved that Lin Ye must also be a soul master, and if he could become friends with these children with top-notch cultivation and soul ring configuration, Lin Ye must be the same kind of person.
Looking at Lin Ye's clothes and conversation, it was obviously more extraordinary, so Ye Zhiqiu knew that Lin Ye was definitely not without background, on the contrary, he might have a great background.
Otherwise, how could it be possible to have extraordinary cultivation and top-level soul rings!
Cultivation is related to talent, and soul ring is related to background. Without sufficient background, it is impossible to get the best configuration of soul ring. He himself is an example!
"Boss Dai, what should we do now!"
On the side, listening to the conversation between Lin Ye and Ye Zhiqiu, Ma Hongjun was so frightened that he almost cried.
Facing a soul king, Ma Hongjun didn't think it would be difficult if everyone went up together.
But if he and Dai Mubai were the only two, how could it be possible to win the fight, this is at least two big realms apart!
But regarding Ma Hongjun's question, Dai Mubai also had a gloomy expression.
"Today, to save face for this young master, I'm only looking for these two fellows among you who insulted our Canghui Academy, and the rest of you should step aside!"
After chatting with Lin Ye, Ye Zhiqiu said to Tang San and the others.
But after hearing Ye Zhiqiu's words, everyone remained silent.
"Tang San, Xiao Wu, Rongrong, this matter was caused by the two of them, no matter what you do, since they caused it, they will solve it themselves, Oscar, and you too, you all get out of the way .”
Seeing that everyone, including Tang San, was silent, Lin Ye couldn't help frowning.
"I'm sorry, Lin Ye, Mubai is my brother, and I, Tang San, never abandon brothers!"
Tang San shook his head and said firmly.
"Brother Lin Ye, Boss Dai and Fatty didn't cause trouble on purpose. This is part of the practice plan that our dean made for us. Soul masters who don't dare to cause trouble are not good soul masters, so I can't abandon Boss Dai. And Fatty!"
Oscar also shook his head, refused, and explained.
But hearing Oscar's words, Lin Ye's heart twitched a few times.
What kind of cultivation is this called? If you cause trouble outside, and now you are covered by someone, of course it’s fine.
But if you leave the Soul Master Academy in the future and do this again, you may have your head wrung out!
What kind of cultivation is this, Lin Ye simply can't understand.
It is also seeking to fight, can't fighting spirit?If you insist on causing trouble outside, what if you can't afford to provoke it!
Regarding Flender, Lin Ye was speechless.
What are these teachings? It's simply misleading!
You should act low-key outside, don't cause trouble, and don't be afraid of trouble.
But to take the initiative to cause trouble, this is obviously a wrong concept, I am afraid that the students taught will not die!
Because of what Tang San and Oscar said, everyone in Shrek Academy chose to be with Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun.
"Master Lin Ye, you can't blame me for this!"
Seeing that Tang San and the others were standing with Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, Ye Zhiqiu couldn't help but turned to look at Lin Ye, and said.
"I see, since they want to fight you, let them go, don't worry about me."
Lin Ye could not interfere with the choices of everyone in Shrek Academy.
Since he wanted to accompany Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun to find a fight, then he couldn't help it.
"Young master, can you let these master soul masters go out to fight? I am a small business here, so I can't afford it!"
When Lin Ye finished speaking, the shopkeeper of the hotel also ran to Lin Ye's side, begging and authentic.
"Director Ye, go out and fight!"
Hearing what the shopkeeper said, Lin Ye couldn't help saying something to Ye Zhiqiu.
"Okay, our Canghui Academy is not a villain, but I just don't know if they are willing to..."
Ye Zhiqiu said something, then turned to look at Tang San and the others.
"Of course we do!"
Xiao Wu was the first to speak out
After deciding to go out to fight, a group of people left the hotel and went to the open space in front of the hotel, preparing to compete here.
Lin Ye also came out with Zhu Zhuqing, ready to watch the battle, and other guests in the hotel also came out to watch the show.
"I said, you guys are really beyond your control. That young master gave you a chance. You just need to let those two people who insulted our Canghui Academy come out, but in the end you insisted on fighting with me. beat."
"Before we fight, let's make a bet first. If I lose, we won't pursue your affairs, but if you lose, then you have to call your college a trash college."
"I'm not too much, right? After all, you said the same thing about our Canghui Academy before, do you dare to accept this bet?"
Looking at Tang San and the others in the open space outside the hotel, Ye Zhiqiu sneered.
Hearing Ye Zhiqiu's words, Tang San and the others couldn't help but look at each other.
But in fact, only Tang San and Dai Mubai made eye contact with each other, both of them were very confident people, and when they heard Ye Zhiqiu made a bet, they didn't believe they would lose either.
"Okay! We promise you!"
Dai Mubai took a step forward, said coldly.
"Okay! Let's start then!"
Ye Zhiqiu said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
Hearing Ye Zhiqiu's words, a group of people from Shrek Academy first looked at each other a few times, then Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu rushed towards Ye Zhiqiu at the same time.
And Ma Hongjun wandered around, waiting for an opportunity to attack. As for Tang San and Ning Rongrong, one provided control and the other provided assistance. As for Oscar, it was currently useless.
"Second soul skill, White Tiger Lie Wave!"
"The first soul skill, waist bow!"
"The first soul skill, Phoenix Firewire!"
"The first soul skill, Coil!"
When Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu rushed in front of Ye Zhiqiu, the two attacked Ye Zhiqiu at the same time.
Dai Mubai spat out a white ball of energy light and shot it at Ye Zhiqiu suddenly, while Xiao Wu flew up, and after a coquettish shout, kicked Ye Zhiqiu's head.
As for Ma Hongjun and Tang San.
After Ma Hongjun found the position, he opened his mouth and spit out a crimson pillar of fire as thick as an arm, shooting at Ye Zhiqiu, while Tang San slammed his hand on the ground, summoning countless blue silver grass, entangled towards Ye Zhiqiu.
"Hmph! Bug carving trick!"
Facing the attacks from the Shrek crowd, Ye Zhiqiu showed a trace of disdain.
Regarding Xiao Wu's attack, Ye Zhiqiu directly retracted his head into the turtle shell, dodging Xiao Wu's flying kick.
As for Dai Mubai, he also aimed the white tiger's fierce light wave at his head, because Ye Zhiqiu's shrinking shell shot directly into the air.
And Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Firewire was the same, it didn't hit the head, it just hit the shell of the tortoise, causing no damage at all.
Only Tang San's blue silver grass wrapped around Ye Zhiqiu's body, but the poisonous sting still failed to break through Ye Zhiqiu's defense.
"Second Soul Skill, Cold Water Frozen!"
In front of Tang San's Blue Silver Grass restraint, Ye Zhiqiu sneered directly, activated the second spirit ability,
Bitter cold air suddenly spread out from his body, instantly freezing the blue silver grass on his body into ice cubes and then shattering into pieces.
"The third soul skill, Profound Water Surging!"
"The fourth soul skill, Breath of Ice"
After evading the crowd's attack and shattering the blue silver grass on his body, Ye Zhiqiu suddenly stuck his head out of the turtle shell, opened his mouth, and spit out a stream of dark blue water full of cold, sweeping forward.
The sudden strong jet of water instantly knocked Dai Mubai into the air, as did Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun, and finally Tang San and Oscar, except that Ning Rongrong and Ye Zhiqiu recognized the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda without injury, The rest of the people were directly wounded by Ye Zhiqiu.
The impact of Xuanshui turbulence plus the freezing power of the breath of ice.
A combination of soul skills directly defeated all the students of Shrek Academy except Ning Rongrong.
Everyone was wounded and frostbitten by the impact of the water flow and the cold energy inside, and completely lost their ability to fight. Only Ning Rongrong, who is an auxiliary system soul master and has no fighting ability, was left behind.
"You should be willing to admit defeat!"
After defeating everyone in Shrek Academy, Ye Zhiqiu slowly walked over, and said with a sneer to Dai Mubai and Tang San who had fallen to the ground and couldn't get up.
But even though they agreed to the bet before, both of them thought that they would not lose.
Now that they lost, they had to scold Shrek Academy for rubbish, neither of them could say it out.
But seeing that Tang San and Dai Mubai didn't fulfill their promise, Ye Zhiqiu's face turned gloomy.
He didn't want to offend Lin Ye, but these little things are so ignorant!
When Ye Zhiqiu had a cold face, hesitating whether he should teach Tang San and Dai Mubai a lesson.
While Tang San secretly used Xuantian Kungfu to alleviate the frostbite in his body, he slowly raised the sleeve arrow on his right hand, preparing to aim at Ye Zhiqiu's eyes.
Dean Flender is the teacher's friend, and also the Soul Master Academy that Tang San joined, just like my teacher, I can't insult my teacher, hidden weapons are part of my strength anyway, now I haven't lost yet...
Tang San pretended to endure frostbite on the surface, but behind his back, the hand hiding the sleeve arrow was slowly raised.
But because of the frostbite caused by the breath of ice, the speed of lifting was a bit slow for a while.
"That is……"
On the side, Lin Ye noticed Tang San's strangeness.
Because there was a fight with Tang San when he was a child, Lin Ye knew that Tang San had hidden a hidden weapon called Xiujian in his sleeve.
After discovering Tang San's strangeness, Lin Ye activated the external spirit bone Double Eyes, and found out Tang San's small movements, which made Lin Ye's face darken immediately.
Ye Zhiqiu gave him face, originally only intending to hold Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun accountable, but Tang San insisted on getting involved, and now he actually wanted to kill Ye Zhiqiu!
It was obviously Shrek Academy's fault, and he mediated from it. It was Shrek Academy who didn't give face, and now they want to kill people because they don't want to fulfill the bet.
For Tang San, Lin Ye felt very strange for the first time.
Ye Zhiqiu made this bet to save him face.
If Ye Zhiqiu was killed by Tang San like this, Lin Ye couldn't accept it at all.
Seeing that Tang San wanted to kill Ye Zhiqiu, it was too late now.
And if you stop drinking, although it can stop Tang San, it will magnify the matter, and Lin Ye doesn't want to magnify the matter now.
So seeing that Tang San was about to make a move, Lin Ye thought for a while, picked up a stone, and flicked it at Tang San.
The stone whizzed in the air, and instantly hit the numb tendon of Tang San's right hand.
Tang San's raised right hand fell down again feebly.
It is normal to have an understanding of the various meridians of the body after practicing the body-building exercises such as the Dragon Elephant Prajna Kung Fu.
Well, how should I put it, the protagonist and Tang San will confront each other, this is a beginning.
Anyway, after reading the original book several times, the test of Shrek Academy and the classic quotations from Flender are outrageous!
And at the beginning of this chapter, the protagonist will gradually realize Tang San's true face.
How should Tang San say it? It feels a bit double-standard, at least when Star Dou Great Forest beat Canghui Academy, Canghui Academy actually had no obvious fault, it was just a little high-profile, but it doesn't matter.
But when Dai Mubai caused trouble, it was Shrek Academy who felt justice in the end, anyway, looking carefully, it didn't feel right at all.
