Osqin, who had hurried forward a couple of steps, caught Ma Hongjun just before he completely lost consciousness, sparing him the awkward situation of still having to let his head make intimate contact with the ground even after winning a spirit battle.
Looking at Ma Hongjun's completely pale, chubby face, Osqin shook his head and couldn't help sighing,"Tut tut, is this the difference between a genius and a mediocre talent? Anyone who dares to mock a genius had better be prepared to get slapped in the face on the spot!
Little fatty, this is a textbook example of someone who rises to the occasion. During training, no matter how hard you tried, you couldn't use Phoenix Spreads Its Wings, yet you actually pulled it off at a moment like this. Seems you really won't know how high you can reach unless you push yourself hard enough."
After the referee on the arena announced the final victory decision, Osqin quickly helped Ma Hongjun off the stage. This little fatty's weight was no joke, and they also needed to quickly find a healing-type spirit master from the Grand Spirit Arena to check his physical condition.
Below the spirit battle platform, the other Shrek Academy students who had not yet fought had already gathered together. What surprised Osqin was that behind the students, he saw Flander and the others, who had been gone for a full week.
As the two of them came down, Shao Xin, the food-type Spirit Sage, naturally took Ma Hongjun—still unconscious—from Osqin's hands. After carefully checking Ma Hongjun's physical condition, Shao Xin finally spoke:
"There's nothing serious. It's just spirit power exhaustion. Once he wakes up, I'll give him a sugar pellet and have him meditate for a while, and he'll be fine."
"Since that's the case, Flander and Teacher Shao, take Hongjun back to the inn to rest first. He won't be participating in tonight's team spirit battle.
Xiao Ao's spirit power consumption earlier should also be quite high—hurry up and recover. The rest of you should also prepare well for your own spirit battles and don't be careless."
After confirming that Ma Hongjun's condition truly wasn't a problem, Grandmaster decisively wrapped up the situation on site and made the necessary arrangements.
Back in the rest room, after eating a recovery sausage, Osqin didn't immediately begin restoring his expended spirit power. Instead, he replayed the just-finished two-versus-two spirit battle in his mind.
"That win was really quite lucky. That boomerang Spirit Elder was eliminated entirely because he failed to fully bring out his own strength.
Although Fatty and I relied on a short burst of speed to create something like a sneak-attack opportunity, if that guy had been more decisive and added the explosive effect of his second spirit ability to the boomerang attacking me, then the result of that exchange would probably have been mutual destruction. I really underestimated how much his third spirit ability amplified the boomerang's attack power.
And that nine-ring saber Spirit Elder—blocking a single attack of his cost me thirty percent of my spirit power. That attack power was completely beyond the scope of the Spirit Elder rank. Moreover, when he wielded the nine-ring saber, there was clearly a specific pattern to his movements. He was definitely not the type who relied purely on spirit abilities to fight.
If Fatty hadn't been forced into a corner and suddenly broken through his limits, then wanting to defeat him would probably have left us with only one option: a war of attrition.
Thinking about it this way, could those two guys be seed players cultivated by Canghui Academy, prepared for next year's Continental Advanced Spirit Master Elite Tournament?
Tsk, you really can't underestimate the foundations of those academies that have established their own reputations across the continent.
All in all, I really hope Ma Hongjun breaks through to the Spirit Elder rank as soon as possible. Although the Iron Spirit Battle tier of the Grand Spirit Arena is a mixed bag, there's no shortage of experts. With just the two of us at our current strength, fighting is honestly far too exhausting."
After sincerely wishing that Ma Hongjun would soon break through to Spirit Elder, Osqin gathered his thoughts and began meditating to recover his consumed spirit power. There was still a team battle ahead—having just over fifty percent spirit power left was far from enough to give him any sense of security.
About forty minutes later, Osqin was woken from his meditative state by Oscar.
"Let's go. Boss Dai and the others have already finished their fight.It's time to head to the team battle rest room—we still need to discuss tactics."
"Mm." After responding briefly, Osqin directly hung himself onto Oscar, letting Oscar drag him along. Having just come out of meditation, Osqin's brain hadn't started functioning properly yet, and he didn't want to think about anything related to team spirit battles.
Pulling his younger brother along, Oscar wove through the Grand Spirit Arena for a full three minutes before finally arriving at the rest room exclusively for team spirit battle participants.
Since it was already close to the start time of the team battles, quite a few teams had gathered in the rest room, making it rather noisy.
Upon reaching the doorway, Osqin immediately spotted the uniformly dressed Shrek team members. However, it seemed they were being picked on.
A muscular brute nearly two meters tall stood arrogantly blocking the Shrek team's resting area. Although Osqin, still standing at the entrance, couldn't hear what he was saying, judging by his expression, he was definitely mocking the Shrek Academy students.
"Sigh, another one looking to get his face slapped. Isn't it better to just stay put? What kind of mindset makes someone insist on trash-talking before a match?" Watching this scene, Osqin's gaze toward the big man unconsciously took on a trace of pity.
The dispute didn't last long. A senior Grand Spirit Arena staff member wearing a tailcoat soon appeared in the rest room. No one knew what he said with a stern face, but the troublemaking brute left the Shrek team's resting area obediently, wearing a fawning smile.
The eyes hidden beneath his spirit tool face mask narrowed slightly. Osqin felt that the scene he had just witnessed seemed familiar."Have I seen this scene before? Or have I read a textual description of something like this?"
"Brother, do you know what our opponent tonight is called?" Unable to recall the specifics, Osqin decided to use more information to jog his memory.
"That, I do know. Our opponent tonight is the Mad Battle Team."
"The Mad Battle Team, huh? You go join everyone first. I suddenly remembered something—I'll head over in a bit."
After briefly instructing Oscar, Osqin quickly headed toward the betting and wagering area of the Grand Spirit Arena. He had remembered now—this Mad Battle Team was the opponent Shrek Seven Devils faced in their first team spirit battle at the Grand Spirit Arena in his memories.
However, Osqin couldn't clearly recall what exactly happened in that team battle. He only had a vague impression that the Mad Battle Team seemed to possess some kind of trump card.
Now, Osqin planned to check the betting area to see if he could obtain more information about the Mad Battle Team. Normally, a place like that would certainly have people who made a living selling intelligence.
Five minutes later, several sheets of paper detailing the Mad Battle Team's information were now in Osqin's hands.
"Tsk tsk, no matter the era, useful intelligence always brings huge profits to well-prepared merchants," Osqin muttered. To obtain these shoddy scraps of paper, he had paid a full five silver spirit coins.
"No way—this information benefits the whole team. How can I shoulder the cost alone?"
After quickly scanning the contents, Osqin indeed found what he was looking for:
"Mad Battle Team: a Spirit Elder–rank team with seven consecutive victories. If they achieve ten consecutive wins, they can advance directly from Iron Spirit Battle rank to Bronze Spirit Battle rank. All members have spirit power above level thirty-five.
Although their officially registered name at the Grand Spirit Arena is the Mad Battle Team, spectators who understand this team prefer to call them the Mad Rhinoceros Team.
On one hand, this is because the team captain's martial spirit is a rhinoceros;
on the other hand, whenever a battle falls into a stalemate, the Mad Battle Team enters a frenzied state. Under the influence of this state, the Mad Battle Team becomes like a truly enraged rhinoceros—once they start, they will not stop until they achieve complete victory. Their opponents are often left either dead or crippled.
According to observations, this frenzied state is very likely caused by the third spirit ability of the team's auxiliary-type spirit master."
