Flender said, while taking Xiao Wu's pulse, his brows furrowed, and he gasped. Xiao Wu's injuries were very serious, but fortunately, there was no life-threatening danger, though the internal injuries were a bit troublesome.
Tang San said helplessly, "We don't know either. That person was wearing a mask like us and used a fake name. There's no way to identify him!"
Flender's gaze was solemn as he asked, "What about his Spirit? What is his Spirit? As long as we know his Spirit, we might be able to find his true identity in the future."
Tang San said, "I'm not sure about that person's Spirit, because he didn't reveal any spirit ring or use any Spirit Ability. But it should be a silver-white longsword. I've just never seen a Spirit like that, and I don't know what that Spirit is called!"
Flender nodded and said, "The name doesn't matter. As long as you remember what it looks like, draw his Spirit when you go back!"
"Okay, Dean, how is Xiao Wu doing?" Tang San asked worriedly, seeing Flender examining Xiao Wu.
At this moment, Tang San hated himself immensely. If he could possess powerful strength, what would the Great Spirit Arena amount to? He would have unhesitatingly stepped onto the stage and directly annihilated Hand Chopping Sword, who had injured Xiao Wu. Tang San had never craved strength as much as he did now.
Flender released Xiao Wu's pulse-taking hand, sighed softly, and said, "Xiao Wu's external injuries are not serious; she'll recover in no time. The key is that Xiao Wu's internal organs were injured!"
Tang San said angrily, "It's all that beast's fault! Xiao Wu was clearly unconscious, why did he still attack!"
Seeing that Flender's judgment was the same as his, Tang San was furious. Recalling the scene of the Soul Arena at that time, if the opponent hadn't launched a second attack, Xiao Wu would at most have suffered some superficial injuries and wouldn't have had her internal organs damaged. Tang San not only hated Hand Chopping Sword but also resented the referee of the Great Spirit Arena. He didn't know what that referee was doing, to make such a low-level mistake. Tang San secretly vowed that when he gained strength in the future, he would not only kill Hand Chopping Sword but also kill that referee. After coming to Douluo Continent, Tang San had never encountered such a great setback, feeling both angry and helpless.
"Oh? What's the specific situation? Tell me!" Flender asked, puzzled.
Upon hearing this, Tang San recounted the entire process of the Soul Arena match.
Flender shook his head, sighed heavily, and said, "The referee didn't announce the winner at the time, and the opponent's actions weren't against the rules. We can't pursue the referee's dereliction of duty with the Great Spirit Arena!"
Tang San gritted his teeth and blamed himself, "It's all my fault, I didn't protect Xiao Wu well!"
Flender gently patted Tang San's shoulder and said, "Don't be too sad. No one could have imagined something would happen to Xiao Wu!"
Tang San nodded and said, "Then, Dean, how should Xiao Wu's internal injuries be treated now?"
Flender frowned and said, "Xiao Wu's internal injuries will probably require a healing Spirit Master!"
"Dean, then I'll leave Xiao Wu's matter to you!" Tang San said respectfully. Although Tang San really wanted to help, he truly didn't understand this kind of thing and could only entrust it to Flender.
"This... Alright..." Flender's mouth twitched, but he finally agreed. One must know that inviting a Spirit Master skilled in healing is not an easy task. On Douluo Continent, healing Spirits themselves are rare, and auxiliary Spirit Masters cultivate slowly. Lacking offensive means, they are very likely to perish before they can grow. Healing Spirit Masters who can successfully grow are extremely rare, and to ask for their help, the price is bound to be very expensive. More importantly, Flender was also poor, otherwise Shrek Academy wouldn't be so shabby. Fortunately, he had earned some money recently from the Soul Arena, but this time he estimated it would all be used up. The thought of having to bleed money made Flender's heart ache, but if he didn't step up for this matter, it would likely dishearten the students, as participating in the Soul Arena was a task assigned by the Academy to the students.
Now that a student had an accident, how could Shrek Academy stand by idly?
Tang San asked, puzzled, "Dean, is this matter very difficult?"
Having not experienced this kind of thing, Tang San completely didn't understand the situation, but Tang San's observation skills were good; he could tell that Flender's expression was not good.
Before Flender could speak, Ma Hongjun quickly interjected, "Tang San, the cost of inviting a healing Spirit Master is very high..."
Before Ma Hongjun could finish, Flender interrupted him and said apologetically, "Hongjun, stop. As the head of Shrek Academy, I have a responsibility to treat the students!"
Seeing the master and disciple acting in concert, Tang San immediately understood. After all that, they were just feigning poverty. Tang San said righteously, "Dean, I will pay for the healing Spirit Master. As long as Xiao Wu is cured, I am willing to pay any amount, even if it means losing everything, I will have no regrets! Please trouble the Dean to invite someone!"
"This... sigh... Alright!" Flender looked troubled, reluctantly agreeing, but his heart was overflowing with joy. The small amount of money he had recently earned was finally saved. Flender secretly glanced at Ma Hongjun, a hint of admiration appearing in his eyes. When it mattered most, his disciple was reliable; it wasn't in vain that he doted on him so much.
The relationship between Flender and Ma Hongjun was very deep. Ma Hongjun had followed Flender since he awakened his Spirit. Due to the inherent flaw in Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Spirit, a strange evil fire would occasionally appear in his body. Flender had worried a lot about this and had also visited healing Spirit Masters, which was why Ma Hongjun understood the situation so well.
Flender glanced at the other students and noticed that one person was missing from the team. He immediately asked, "Oh, where's Zhuqing? Where did Zhuqing go?"
Ning Rongrong stepped forward and said, "Dean, after the Soul Arena match, Zhuqing left in a hurry. She didn't say where she was going, but she told us to go back first and that she would return on her own!"
Flender nodded and said, "Alright then, Mubai, Hongjun, you two take Little Ao and Rongrong back to the inn first, and check if Zhuqing has returned!"
After Flender finished his instructions, he didn't hesitate further. If he didn't have to pay, he at least had to put in the effort. Flender led the way, and Tang San followed behind him, carrying Xiao Wu.
Dai Mubai, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and Ning Rongrong exchanged glances and also departed from the Great Spirit Arena.
"Boss Dai, Zhuqing isn't here today, why don't we go out and have some fun?" Ma Hongjun suggested with a grin.
