Chapter 177: 2 Poisoned, 2 Electrocuted, the Battle's Outcome
"This is extremely cold ice poison and extremely hot fire poison."
After feeling it firsthand, Tang San finally understood what was happening.
"But how can a Jade Phosphorous Serpent Spirit Master possess both toxins?"
"There's only one possibility."
As the thought surfaced, Tang San could not help but give a bitter smile.
He had not expected that this Jade Phosphorous Serpent female Spirit Master would be so lucky, lucky enough to find those 2 immortal items, and even lucky enough to consume them successfully without exploding and dying.
No wonder even Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Flame could not burn away this Azure Phosphorus Poison.
"As a disciple of the Tang Clan, I've always been the one poisoning others. I never imagined I'd be the one poisoned. I'm truly ashamed."
"I'm sorry, everyone. This battle has to end here."
With a silent apology in his heart, Tang San had no choice but to abandon the fight. He sat down cross legged on the spot and used all his strength to circulate the Mysterious Heaven Skill, resisting the ice and fire toxins that had already invaded his body.
After consuming the 2 immortal herbs, Dugu Yan had successfully obtained this terrifying ice and fire toxin, something that was practically unstoppable against ordinary opponents. The only reason Tang San could resist at all was because the amount that entered his body was limited, and because Mysterious Heaven Skill was neutral and balanced, giving him some resistance.
Even so, no matter how hard he fought, he could not force the toxins out. The blue and red light on his body continued to alternate, and he could only delay the spread.
Ma Hongjun, who had been directly engulfed by the poisonous fog, had no strength to resist. With a dull thud, he collapsed to the ground and fell unconscious.
With a single move, Dugu Yan had taken down 2 of the Shrek Seven Devils, including the strongest, Tang San. The remaining 5 immediately changed expression. Even Yu Xiaogang, watching from the side, was stunned.
"Oh, Yanzi's side is settled." Yu Tianheng had clearly noticed the rear as well. He laughed at once and lit up his 4th Spirit Ring. "Then I'll finish things here too."
Yu Tianheng's 4th Spirit Skill, Thunderous Strike, allowed him to release lightning in all directions centered on himself, forming a wide range attack with a paralyzing effect.
The first 3 Spirit Skills of the Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul were all carefully selected by the clan to best suit each disciple. Only upon reaching the 4th Spirit Skill were disciples allowed to choose based on personal preference.
Yu Tianheng chose Thunderous Strike for a very simple reason, the team's needs.
In team battles, the Shi brothers had to protect Ye Lingling and could not fight at the front. That meant Yu Tianheng often had to face multiple enemies at once. To handle being surrounded, he naturally needed a burst type skill with a wide area of effect.
Now, under the amplification of Thunderous Fury, the power of Thunderous Strike reached an astonishing level. Lightning erupted in a blinding flash. Even with multiple enhancements on his body, Dai Mubai could not endure it at all. He was electrocuted on the spot, his body convulsing as he collapsed to the ground.
Xiao Wu's expression changed. She used her teleportation technique again, but it was useless. The moment she appeared elsewhere, lightning still met her.
Teleportation was indeed powerful, but it was only a 1,000 year Spirit Skill. No matter how strong it was, it had limits. Her maximum teleport distance was only 5 meters.
In the exchange earlier, Yu Tianheng had already figured out that limit. That was why he used this Spirit Skill in such a targeted way.
Thunderous Strike covered a 10 meter radius around Yu Tianheng. He had deliberately positioned himself close enough to Xiao Wu so that even if she teleported, she would still remain within that range.
So no matter where Xiao Wu appeared, she was still struck by lightning.
Just like that, Xiao Wu was electrocuted as well and collapsed to the ground.
Two of the Shrek Seven Devils were support types, leaving only 5 combatants. Now 4 of those 5 had been taken out in one sweep, leaving only Zhu Zhuqing standing.
Even alone, Zhu Zhuqing's will was stubborn. She was not afraid of hardship, and she still wanted to fight.
Even if she could not win, she would still fight.
But at that moment, Yu Xiaogang's voice rang out from afar. "Alright, that's enough. Stop."
Hearing her teacher's command, Zhu Zhuqing froze, then could only stop.
And so, this so called fair 3v7 match came to an end.
Yu Tianlin was still somewhat disappointed by the result. By his original estimate, although the Shrek Seven Devils were no match for the 3 members of the Royal Fighting Team, they had a large advantage in numbers. They should have had a chance to break through to Ye Lingling and pressure her, or at least force her to use her trump card, the Rasengan.
But that never happened. The Shrek Seven Devils were cleanly suppressed by the 3 members of the Royal Fighting Team. From beginning to end, Ye Lingling only provided healing support and never made a move.
Although Tang San held back heavily, not using hidden weapons or the Eight Spider Lances, Dugu Yan did the same. She did not use her head Spirit Bone, nor her terrifying 4th Spirit Skill.
It only proved how frightening the immortal herbs truly were. In the original trajectory, they lost a 7v7 against the Tang San Team. Now, they had won a 3v7 instead.
With the battle over, Dugu Yan went to help Tang San and Ma Hongjun detoxify. Yu Tianheng walked up to Yu Xiaogang and said apologetically, "Sorry, Second Uncle. Did we go a bit too far?"
"It's fine." Yu Xiaogang shook his head. "I'm the one who proposed the spar. Results like this are normal in a fight. Besides, that little girl Dugu has already gone to detoxify Xiao San and the others. As long as there are no aftereffects, it's fine."
"It's good for them to suffer a crushing defeat. It will push them to train even harder."
"Is that so?" After hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Yu Tianheng nodded. "I'm glad you don't blame me, Second Uncle."
"There's nothing to blame." Yu Xiaogang patted Yu Tianheng's shoulder. "So many years have passed. I never thought that little crybaby would grow to this point, and even find such reliable companions. That's good."
"Second Uncle…" Yu Tianheng was about to say more when Yu Xiaogang interrupted him. "We'll talk later. I'm going to check their condition first."
Even though Yu Xiaogang said it was good for the Seven Devils to suffer a crushing defeat, he was still worried when he saw them actually injured.
Among the Shrek Seven Devils, 3 were unharmed, 2 were poisoned, and 2 were electrocuted. The poisoned ones would be fine as long as they received treatment in time. As for the electric shocks, they were not severe. Their Spirit Power had protected them. They only needed a few recovery sausages and 1 or 2 days of rest.
Although the Shrek Seven Devils lost this battle, it was still intense, and some were hurt. Yu Xiaogang was not completely rigid, so he directly canceled their weighted run for the day and allowed them to rest.
