Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Tang San's Moment to Shine!
The spider soul master was visibly relieved as she watched the Shrek team members exit the arena, especially when the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda soul master left. However, she was puzzled to see Tang San was the only one who remained. She couldn't understand why they would leave a seemingly weaker member on the battlefield.
Tang San had just consumed his second mushroom sausage and was floating in the air when she called out to him, "Aren't you going to leave the battlefield?"
With a calm smile, Tang San replied, "Even though I'm alone, who can say that the final victor won't be us?"
The audience erupted in noise. The Shrek team's explosive speed had left them in awe, and now the standoff between the two sides was both thrilling and frustrating, eliciting cheers and jeers alike. The jeers were mostly directed at Tang San, who continued to evade.
Ignoring the audience, Tang San focused entirely on observing the Kuang Zhan team. His eyes glowed with purple light as he activated his Purple Demon Eye.
When Dai Mubai and the others left, Tang San noticed the Kuang Zhan members shivering, their aura waning and soul power fluctuations diminishing. He didn't know their auxiliary states were fading but saw it as a sign that the frenzy was ending, boosting his confidence.
The frenzied Kuang Zhan members roared below, while the spider soul master kept her eyes on Tang San. Both sides were waiting for the other to show signs of weakness.
Tang San's patience paid off. After his third mushroom sausage, just as he was about to give up, the Kuang Zhan members shook collectively. Except for the spider woman, their eyes cleared, their chaotic expressions fading, and their soul power plummeted.
Kuang Xi, in particular, felt the pain return with a vengeance, overwhelming him. Tang San was pleased but remained cautious, not wanting to be deceived by overconfidence.
The spider woman's expression shifted as her body trembled, though not as much as her companions. Her soul power was significantly depleted, leaving her visibly weakened.
As the mushroom sausage's speed boost ended, Tang San descended gracefully. Thanks to Oscar's recovery sausage, his strength was restored, and his soul power was back to about 40%.
"Just as I thought, you can't sustain that speed indefinitely," the spider woman commented calmly, ignoring her comrades' pale faces and pain-induced shivers as she focused on Tang San.
Tang San smiled serenely, "Neither could you sustain your state for long. I presume your auxiliary soul master could only use that skill once, even if conscious."
"So what? Do you think you can win now?" she retorted. "Don't forget, you're alone against six of us. And you're just a Spirit Grandmaster. How will you stand against us?"
Tang San glanced toward Xiao Wu before responding with a smile, "But in truth, only you have combat capability now."
"I don't know how you remained conscious to command your team in that state, but you, too, must bear the negative effects. Even with some soul power left, you're not in peak condition."
"So this battle is between you and me, isn't it?"
Kuang Xi, fully aware now, felt excruciating pain as his martial spirit's effects faded, leaving him furious. Seeing Tang San, the source of his suffering, Kuang Xi angrily ripped out the embedded needles, declaring, "Who says I'm powerless? Even with physical strength, I can crush you!"
His fury wasn't diminished by his depleted soul power. Never had he felt such rage, his formidable power neutralized by Tang San's unknown weapon, putting his team at a disadvantage.
With a roar, he charged at Tang San. The spider woman did not intervene, confident in Kuang Xi's physical prowess to topple even a strong bull.
Her ability to stay conscious during the frenzy was due to her millennium soul ring's unique effects, reducing negative impacts by 50%. This allowed her to endure the frenzy's enhancements while only partially suffering its drawbacks.
Having expended her soul power and emerged from the frenzy, she was left with a mere 30% of her strength.
As Kuang Xi charged, Tang San refrained from using his Blue Silver Grass, reserving his soul power for the spider woman. Without soul power, Kuang Xi was like a toothless tiger, not requiring Tang San's full strength.
As Kuang Xi lunged with open arms, Tang San advanced instead of retreating, employing his Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to glide forward lightly.
His movements were elusive, and Kuang Xi couldn't pin down Tang San's true position. Sidestepping, Tang San slipped to Kuang Xi's side, extending his left foot under Kuang Xi's, and struck with his elbow from behind.
Though Tang San's build wasn't as robust as Kuang Xi's, his strength was comparable, surprising his formidable opponent.
