Chapter 71 - Chapter 71: Shrek is the Villain

The eight people from Canghui Academy had also taken their seats, two tables away from Shrek. Tang San caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye: the middle-aged man, clearly a teacher, whispered a few words into the ear of a young man.

Soon, that young man stood up from his seat and walked towards Tang San's table. His path was clearly aimed at Dai Mubai.

A hint of disdain flashed in Dai Mubai's Evil Eyes. Tang San could see it, so he naturally wasn't unaware, but he didn't even glance at the other party. Just then, the waiter happened to serve the first dish to their table.

The young man from Canghui Academy suddenly quickened his pace. Amidst the waiter's surprised cry, he deliberately bumped into the waiter, and the dish was about to spill over Dai Mubai's head.

"Don't waste food," Tang San said indifferently. His left hand shot out like lightning, steadying the waiter's body. His right hand extended, perfectly catching the plate. He used his Controlling Crane Catching Dragon, managing to keep the food from spilling a single drop, and lightly placed the plate on the table. At the same time, his left hand had already pulled the waiter aside.

The young man from Canghui Academy was stunned for a moment. Due to the waiter's body blocking his view, he hadn't clearly seen Tang San's movements. However, a sly smile quickly appeared on his face. "My apologies."

Though he said so, he continued to walk forward, appearing as if he was merely passing by Dai Mubai. But one of his feet subtly swept out, aiming directly at a chair leg beneath Dai Mubai.

It was just an ordinary wooden chair. If one of its legs were to be kicked off, Dai Mubai naturally wouldn't be able to sit steadily. Moreover, the young man's kicking motion was extremely concealed; his upper body remained still. Unless one paid special attention, it would be impossible to notice his movement.

Just as the young man kicked out, Dai Mubai moved.

Do tigers have good tempers?

The answer is, of course, no.

Having been annoyed by Zhu Zhuqing these past few days, Dai Mubai had long been holding back his frustration. Faced with the other party's provocation, how could he let such an opportunity slip by?

With a dull thud, the young man from Canghui Academy felt as if his foot had kicked an iron plate. His entire calf went numb from the shock. Immediately after, Dai Mubai's palm slapped out.

The young man's expression changed drastically as he raised both hands to block Dai Mubai's hand, but who knew that his hands were completely vibrated open by the spirit power attached to Dai Mubai's palm? That palm still landed solidly on his chest.

The young man, though tall, was sent flying backward by Dai Mubai's palm, his body arching like a weightless scarecrow. He knocked over two tables in succession and flew towards the group from Canghui Academy.

The middle-aged man from Canghui Academy hastily stood up, raised both hands, and caught the young man by the shoulders, bringing him down. The young man's face turned pale, and with a "wah" sound, he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, looking much weaker.

Dai Mubai straightened his body, stretching his back as if from the earlier palm strike. "My apologies, I misjudged."

The true colors of the Evil Eyes White Tiger were revealed. The disdain and scorn on his face, coupled with intense arrogance, made him seem annoying even to his own people, let alone outsiders. For example, Yun Chuan, who was already hidden in the shadows.

After booking the room, he had intended to rest. But then he suddenly remembered that there seemed to be such a scene in the original novel, so he quietly lurked in the shadows to observe everyone. As a result, he witnessed Dai Mubai and the others initiating the provocation, followed by an infinitely arrogant demeanor… Isn't this a standard villain's appearance?

When he read novels in his previous life, he vaguely felt something was off. Now, after observing it firsthand, he realized that Shrek was indeed the villain!

Sometimes, when looking at things from an objective perspective, it's easy to draw conclusions.

Shrek's education methods are indeed problematic!

The restaurant erupted in an uproar. Diners near the tables of Shrek Academy and Canghui Academy quickly stood up and moved aside to avoid being caught in the crossfire. However, most people did not immediately leave the restaurant but instead watched the scene with excitement. One must know that normally, to watch a Spirit Master duel, one had to go to the Great Spirit Arena, which cost a considerable price. Being able to watch for free now, ordinary people who also possessed Spirit would naturally become excited. Moreover, in this place, Spirit Masters frequently appeared.

How could the group from Canghui Academy endure it any longer? The remaining six students stood up in unison, glaring angrily at Shrek Academy's table. They wanted to rush over but were stopped by the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man helped the injured young man sit down on a chair, then sternly asked Dai Mubai, "Which academy are you children from?"

Dai Mubai's Evil Eyes flashed with light. "Are you asking for names? You're not worthy." Saying that, he sat back down in his seat. Fatty moved quickly, especially when eating. He had already started and was saying while eating, "Hmm, the taste is alright, just a bit undercooked. It'll do."

The teacher from Canghui Academy's face had turned a livid green with anger. "What a bunch of arrogant brats! Teach them a lesson."

The students of Canghui Academy had been waiting for him to speak. Except for the one injured by Dai Mubai and the only female student, the other five immediately rushed towards Tang San's table.

"A fight? I like it." Xiao Wu excitedly jumped up from her seat and unhesitatingly went to meet them.

Xiao Wu moved, and Tang San naturally didn't stand idly by; he also stood up. A faint purple hue had already covered his eyes.

Neither side directly activated their Spirit. The five opposing youths saw that the one coming to meet them was actually a particularly delicate-looking young girl. Although she didn't look old, Xiao Wu was already about 1.7 meters tall, blinking her cute big eyes, approaching with a harmless look, which immediately caused their momentum to falter. They hesitated.

Oscar stood beside Tang San and whispered, "Why aren't you going up? Don't let Xiao Wu get hurt."

Oscar had never seen Xiao Wu truly fight before, so he naturally didn't know her strength. And since the opponents came from a high-level Spirit Master Academy, they should at least have a spirit power level of twenty or above, and there were five of them.

Tang San did not step forward. He smiled slightly and said, "You've also been fooled by Xiao Wu's appearance. These guys are going to have a bad time."

Through years of continuous cultivation, Tang San's Purple Demon Eye had truly entered the Minute Realm. What he could see was naturally more than before.

Purple Demon Eye is divided into four levels: Overview, Minute, Mustard Seed, and Vast. In the Overview realm, it can greatly enhance vision and clearly grasp the existence of every detail. After entering the Minute realm, according to Tang San's original memory and the records in the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, the effect of Purple Demon Eye should be to see more clearly and grasp richer details. The Minute realm of Purple Demon Eye can slow down everything in front of him and react to his nerves, allowing him to react in the shortest possible time.

When Tang San's Purple Demon Eye truly entered the Minute realm, he discovered that in this World, the Purple Demon Eye had undergone some slight mutation. In addition to its original abilities, he could also discern the amount of spirit power a Spirit Master possessed. However, there was a prerequisite: he could only see the spirit power of Spirit Masters whose spirit power was lower than his own; for those stronger than him, the Purple Demon Eye could not perceive it.

Although he didn't know why this was the case, for Tang San, this was undoubtedly a very good ability. At least it could help him determine whether an opponent's spirit power was stronger than his own. At this moment, relying on his Purple Demon Eye, he could clearly see the spirit power of six of the seven students from Canghui Academy, except for the female student and the teacher, whom he could not see through.

The young man who had provoked Dai Mubai earlier and was repelled had a spirit power of level twenty-seven. However, the five people in front of them now had not exceeded level twenty-five. Tang San was very clear about Xiao Wu's combat experience, and she possessed level twenty-nine spirit power. In a situation where she had the advantage, Tang San was certain that Xiao Wu would not suffer a loss. Moreover, he was standing by her side.

The five youths' forward steps halted, but that didn't mean Xiao Wu would stop. Xiao Wu blinked her large eyes and smiled, "Hello, big brothers."

The five youths were all stunned simultaneously and couldn't help but look at each other. Being blocked by such a cute-looking young girl, their aggressive demeanor immediately froze, and they hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to do. And just as they were looking at each other, Xiao Wu moved.

Her foot seemed to slip, and her entire body lunged forward, falling towards one of the youths. That youth subconsciously raised his hand to try and support Xiao Wu, but then he suddenly saw a dark, shiny braid flying out of nowhere. Before he could react, his neck was already firmly entangled by Xiao Wu's scorpion braid. Xiao Wu's forward-lunging posture also happened to stop at this moment; her body curled up and leaped, turning her back to the youth and jumping up, her feet directly kicking towards his chest.

Having one's neck entangled already made one prone to panic. Seeing Xiao Wu's feet kick out, the youth hurriedly raised his hands to block. But how could he know that Xiao Wu's feet were not meant for attacking but merely as pivot points? Almost instantly, his entire body was sent flying by Xiao Wu's forward handspring.

Even Tang San had suffered a loss the first time he encountered Xiao Wu's soft techniques, let alone these academy students who were formally trained but had little practical combat experience. Xiao Wu's movements were extremely fast; her feet did not pause at all. Using the momentum of her forward handspring, she threw one person, and her feet landed on another.

At this moment, the remaining four youths had not fully reacted. The youth facing Xiao Wu's second wave of attack quickly raised his hands to block Xiao Wu's attack, but was Xiao Wu's soft technique that easy to block?

Although his arms did indeed block Xiao Wu's feet, this student from Canghui Academy was surprised to find that there was no power attached to Xiao Wu's feet at all; they were as soft as noodles. Her feet slipped and had already drilled under his arms, accurately clamping onto his neck. Next, Xiao Wu's forward-flipping body defied inertia and changed to a backward flip, and the second person was thrown out.
