But, Chao Tian-Xiang clearly was not willing to give up. Eyes turning, already carefully calculating, one hand lightly stroking the hair on her head. Chao Tian-Xiang"s face revealed a smiling expression,"Brother Zhao, in the present kind of circ.u.mstances, I see we both somewhat hate to part with this Thousand Year Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent. So it would be better to do it like this: we handle it according to the Spirit Master realm"s established customs, letting these two children decide on their own who this spirit ring belongs to. What do you think?"
"Oh? Spirit Master realm"s established customs? Please explain it clearly, senior."
Zhao Wuji was not affected. He had never before considered himself a person of the Spirit Master realm and behaved only according to his own preferences, otherwise he would not have landed his infamy.
Chao Tian-Xiang said:
"It"s very simple, since they both need this spirit ring, and in the course of capturing this Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent, both sides also used strength. Since right now everyone is unwilling to give up their claim, then, we"ll use strength to decide who this Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent belongs to. Isn"t that most suitable? If this disciple of yours prevails over my granddaughter, this old woman will say nothing further, and we will leave immediately. And conversely, we would ask brother Zhao to give over this thousand year Phoenix Tail Crest Serpent."
Zhao Wuji spread both hands, a.s.suming a helpless appearance,
"I"m sorry. Big sister Chao, I fear I"m unable to go along with your wishes."
Chao Tian-Xiang"s expression changed, slightly angrily saying:
"Zhao Wuji, I already conceded, what do you still want? Bullying me when my old fellow isn"t present? Humph!"
Zhao Wuji said with an apologetic smile:
"No, of course not, it"s like this, this disciple of mine isn"t a Battle Spirit Master, he is only an auxiliary system Spirit Master, that"s all. Even more a food system Spirit Master. How could he compete against your granddaughter?"
Hearing Zhao Wuji"s words, Chao Tian-Xiang was shocked once again,
"What did you say? He is a food system Spirit Master?"
The words "food system Spirit Master" made her immediately see Oscar in a new light.
Just like what Shrek Academy"s dean Flender said, as a food system Spirit Master, and with innate full spirit power, Oscar absolutely was a genius among geniuses. Perhaps in the entire Continent since the beginning of history, one still would not find a food system Spirit Master with cultivation faster than his.
Chao Tian-Xiang looked toward Oscar with a pleasant countenance,
"Young man, are you really a food system Spirit Master? From which school are you?"
Oscar shook his head, saying:
"I am not part of a school. The dean said that my spirit just became like this due to variation."
Genius food system Spirit Master, without background, variation spirit, these several bits summed together made Chao Tian-Xiang"s heart tighten up. If her school was able to unearth an outstanding food system Spirit Master like this, then, in the future having him a.s.sist her granddaughter, wouldn"t it be too perfect?
However, without waiting for Chao Tian-Xiang to try to recruit him, another voice suddenly interjected.
"Teacher Zhao, it would be better to let me subst.i.tute for him in this." I pipe up.
She quickly counters with. "But you have 4 sprit rings don"t you my grandaughter only has 2."
I just smile. "Your right I"m a 12 year old rank 42 spirit ancestor. however to make things fair I"ll only use 1 ring. if that isn"t good enough I can only go bare handed." I say goading her.
Her grandaughter quickly pipes up ignoring the shocked look on her grandmother"s face about my age.
"I can easily beat you if you only use 1 ring I accept." she shouts her staff glowing and her rings lighting up.
I just smile at her and wave for her to come at me.
already being angered about having to deal with people who she thinks are stealing her prey she rushes forward aiming a staff strike towards my head. A quick poke with a needle and she"s out fast asleep on the ground mid swing.
The grandmother quickly rushes over to check on her.
"I"ve only put her to sleep don"t worry." I tell her.
Sighing in relief the elderly lady picks her up before looking at us all. "Alright you win just consider it this ladies bad luck." she mutters.
"if any of you need a school you are welcome to come find us." She says tossing out a card to us.
I take it and put it inside my pocket as it would be rude to decline the gesture.
With one more bitter look she quickly hops off into the woods.
Oscar quickly made his way over to the snake before killing it off and starting to absorb the purple ring.
Soon after he finished he was both sad and happy.
"So what"s the new ability you gained." mubai asked curiously.
"Let"s not talk about this right now." Oscar waved with embarra.s.sment.
"Ah come on just get it over with."
"Fine but you can"t laugh." he said waving his fist.
"I your father have a little mushroom." With a poof a little winged mushroom popped into existence.
Everyone broke out laughing.
"Shut up i won"t feed you guys anymore." he said crossing his arms in anger.
"Alright alright well tell us what"s your little mushroom do." joked mubai.
with a proud look he replied. "it let"s you fly for five minutes."
most of the people scrambled for one except me I still prefer to fly on my own or at least where my feet are on the ground like in a ship.
After everyone had fun flying we all left the forest with no more unfortunate events. My shadows however were having a harsh time running and trying to survive colossus 100000 year old beasts I couldn"t kill as my needles couldn"t even get past the skin. Plus they were friends of Xiao wu and I didn"t want to really kill them only slow them down.
They managed to evade after a while by using shadows and soon went back to slaughter mode. even gaining some spirit bones which were stored in a new 4th ring of the devour skill.
