"One Spirit King, five Spirit Ancestors, and more than ten Spirit Grandmasters and Spirit Elders. Hmm, if this were during a Soul Master Competition, this lineup would be quite strong, but unfortunately, we are no longer who we were back then!"
"Speaking of the Soul Master Competition, it seems to be starting again next year. It's said that Teacher has already made arrangements for students to participate before going out to sea. It's a pity we followed Teacher out to sea, otherwise, maybe this time we would have had a chance to win the championship and make up for the regret."
"What's a Soul Master Competition champion? Being able to go out to sea with Teacher for experience is the best thing, okay?"
"Sisters, don't make a move, let me spray them to death!"
Shui Yue'er, clad in a long, sky-blue robe, emerged from the cabin, stepped onto the railing in front of her, pointed at the sky, and huffed.
The ink on Shui Yue'er's face had faded to a wheat color after several days of skin regeneration from the Sea Spirit Fluid; it should turn white in a few more days, but her body's skin color recovery was a bit slower.
"They're all beautiful girls! I smell the virginal scent of maidens!"
"Leader, I like this little girl, how about you reward her to me?"
"Spray me to death? Hehehe, if you fall into my hands, I'll make you spray all your water dry!"
"Hmph, besides Teacher, who else is worthy of doing that?"
Shui Yue'er leaped, and five spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, black, black—appeared on her. A verdant blue ring condensed in front of her, and the surging tides within it, accompanied by faintly Dragon-transformed dolphins, instantly burst forth, directly blasting the pirate of the four-ring Spirit Ancestor Realm with no power to retaliate. He was sent flying, crashing into the waves like an iron ball.
The tidal water column pivoted, turning to spray the Sea Demon pirate ship. In an instant, it blasted a huge dent into the Sea Demon's hull.
At the same time, Gu Qingbo, Shen Liuyu, and Qiu Ruoshui, who had just acquired their fifth Spirit Ability, also made their moves.
Ice Crocodile Charge, Lotus Spear Soul Sever, Shark Drill Ship Breaker.
In just a few minutes, the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang that came to rob gained no money or beauty, and lost more than half of their pirate members. They were severely injured by powerful Spirit Abilities and fell into the ocean, barely clinging to life.
Even more terrifying, the entire Sea Demon, under the bombardment of these Spirit King powerhouses, quickly shattered, took on water, and sank, disappearing from the surface of the sea right before the eyes of the pirate gang leader, Haider.
Haider was stunned. He had seen the exterior of this Peach Garden cruise ship in Vast Sea City before, but it was still under renovation at the time. He had specifically inquired about the owner of the cruise ship, and it was said that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, an auxiliary Sect, had prepared it for a mainland guest's long voyage.
When the Peach Garden sailed into the vicinity of the Demon Whale Sea Area, they had observed the Peach Garden through telescopes, noticing that there were very few people on the cruise ship, and it didn't even carry a guard team. They thought the mainlanders lacked sailing experience, which sparked their malicious intent.
After all, such a large ship as the Peach Garden, not to mention the treasures on board, even just seizing the ship itself would be worthwhile.
They estimated that the strongest among these girls would at most be at the fortieth-something level! A fortieth-something level Spirit Ancestor at that age was already considered a favored daughter of heaven among sea Spirit Masters, and even on Sea God Island, there weren't many.
But a fortieth-something level Spirit Ancestor would still not be their opponent! The chances of success in their attack were very high.
But who would have thought that these inexperienced girls, who looked to be around twenty years old, were all Spirit King powerhouses! And their combat power was much stronger than that of normal Spirit Kings.
Even he, the Sea Demon leader, a Spirit King of the fiftieth-something level, was like a plaything in their hands, being tossed around without any power to retaliate. Finally, with a plop, he knelt on the deck at the edge of the Peach Garden:
"Surrender, we surrender, please don't fight anymore, noble and young Spirit King sirs, please spare our lives!"
"You pirates are too shameless, aren't you? You rob when you want to rob, and surrender when you want to surrender?"
"I haven't even had enough fun yet!"
Shui Yue'er rubbed her fists, looking at the few remaining Spirit Master pirates on the Sea Demon begging for mercy, feeling a bit unsatisfied:
"Teacher was right, the same thing, but different strengths lead to vastly different outcomes. The perspective on things also changes drastically."
If their strength was low and they couldn't defeat these pirates, what would await them? It would probably be all their treasures being plundered, and even they themselves would be raised as playthings.
But at this moment, Shui Yue'er looked at these pirates with only playful mockery, a source of amusement after days of drifting on the ocean, and dolls to test the strength of her Spirit Abilities.
Spirit Abilities of over twenty thousand years were indeed extraordinary. Although her spirit power was only at levels fifty-one to fifty-two, the power unleashed was no less than a Spirit Emperor's sixth Spirit Ability!
"It's certainly impossible to spare you. You dead pirates are as detestable as the bandits who rule the mountains on land."
"Teacher, what do you think is the best way to punish them?"
Shui Yue'er shouted towards the upper deck of the Peach Garden
"Just throw them into the Demon Whale Sea Area to feed the fish."
On the top deck, the person was unseen, only their voice was heard, a faint one.
Upon hearing this, Haider and the other pirates were terrified. They scrambled and crawled, begging for mercy towards the upper deck:
"Teacher, don't throw us to feed the fish. I can give all my gold and silver treasures to Teacher. Please, Teacher, spare my life!"
"We will never dare again!"
"Don't call me Teacher, I don't have students like you. Kneeling so skillfully, you must have done this often, haven't you? Bullying and robbing the weak, kneeling and begging for mercy when encountering the strong."
Su Ran continued to fish, not showing himself, only a faint, indifferent voice came:
"Throw them down to feed the fish."
The previous Spirit Master battle had severely injured and knocked many pirate gang members into the ocean, attracting numerous bloodthirsty great white sharks. They directly bit their bodies apart. Fierce great white sharks revealed their backs, slicing through the water like heavy blades, sniffing for food with blood pressure.
"Yes, Teacher!"
"Get out of here!"
Dugu Yan and Shui Yue'er didn't hesitate at all, kicking the remaining pirates into the ocean one by one.
Haider turned pale with fright:
"I am the leader of the Purple Pearl Pirate Gang! If the Grand Leader knows you dare to treat members of our Purple Pearl Pirate Gang like this, our Grand Leader will not let you off!"
"Our Purple Pearl Grand Leader is a Spirit Saint powerhouse!"
"Wow!"
Biu~
There wasn't even a splash, just swallowed by the waves.
The weaker pirates were directly torn apart by the great white sharks as food. Haider, the stronger leader, immediately activated his Spirit and began his escape, but he was surrounded by great white sharks. His body was covered in blood, making him a target for the great white sharks to chase and brutalize.
"This Taoyuan Teacher… is indeed so cruel, cannot be provoked…"
The Mara Sisters were amazed by Shui Yue'er's power, and at the same time, greatly marveled at Taoyuan Teacher's ruthlessness.
Spirit Master Shui Yue'er really didn't lie to them!
…
On the upper deck, Su Ran remained unmoved. This Purple Pearl Pirate Gang was indeed a large pirate gang in the Western Sea, but he was not afraid.
Instead, many great white sharks and black Sea Demons had gathered around now. These were all rare sea products, and he only wanted to catch a few.
[Blood Bright Bait]
This was a precious bait obtained from the System, with a very strong bloody smell, capable of enhancing the Spirit Beast's blood Qi and lifespan. Su Ran had been reluctant to use it before, but seeing this scene of a faint sea of blood, with the pirates' blood successfully used as chum, Su Ran finally put the Blood Bright Bait on the hook.
Buzz—
However, a scene that puzzled Su Ran occurred. As soon as the Blood Bright Bait was cast, the great white sharks and black Sea Demons on the sea surface not only did not fight for the bait, but scattered in all directions at an extremely fast speed, as if… they were fleeing for their lives!
Su Ran's eyes immediately narrowed, sensing that something was wrong.
Soon, the float sank, and Su Ran felt a huge force emerging from under the sea. It was so immense that he couldn't bear it, his body taking several steps forward, almost reaching the edge of the deck, and then the entire Peach Garden tilted at a thirty-degree angle.
Su Ran quickly leaped into the air, leaving the Peach Garden, his body suspended in mid-air, and urgently said to Shui Bing'er:
"Children, run!"
"Teacher has hooked a top-tier big one."
"If you don't run now, you'll be eaten by sharks too!"
"Bing'er, have the captain take you away from here at the fastest speed, quickly!"
