Facing Tang San's hidden weapon attack, Oscar didn't move at all. Six flying swords had somehow returned to his side, and their sharp sword light completely blocked over a dozen hidden weapon attacks.
Ten explosions rang out almost simultaneously, and ten cold glows were completely blocked by Oscar. Tang San's hidden weapons didn't cause any harm to Oscar.
Tang San was secretly surprised. He knew that what he had shot were ten Bone-Piercing Nails. Among small hidden weapons, Bone-Piercing Nails were considered quite heavy. Coupled with his internal energy propulsion and the penetrating nature of the nails, they still couldn't harm Oscar even a little?
Such powerful attack power, and he didn't even use any Spirit Skills. Dai Mubai saying he had no flaws wasn't without reason.
However, Tang San didn't get discouraged. He turned his body, and another dozen cold glows were thrown toward Oscar.
"No flaws, huh?" A cold glint flashed in Tang San's eyes. In his view, so-called no flaws actually meant the whole body was flaws. Only by breaking one point could he find his opportunity.
And the premise was that he needed to be able to break through, otherwise everything would just be empty talk.
While retreating, Tang San's hands danced like butterflies before him, sometimes flicking, sometimesflicking, one cold glow after another shot from his hands, specifically targeting Oscar's vital points.
Willow Leaf Daggers, Flying Locust Stones, Gold Coin Daggers, Bone-Piercing Nails—all kinds of hidden weapons bloomed under Tang San's "rain of flowers" technique. Some flew straight, some diagonally, somecircled around to behind, but their ultimate target was always the same: Oscar's body.
Facing Tang San's hedgehog-like hidden weapon attack, Oscar didn't choose to dodge, not even moving his feet an inch. The six flying swords around him suddenly erupted with even more intense sword energy, and the six swords shot out abruptly.
In just the blink of an eye, the sounds of metal collisions rang out one after another. When the sounds disappeared, Oscar's figure still stood tall there. Within a meter around him, countless iron hidden weapons had been completely cut and scattered all over the ground.
Seeing this scene, Tang San's pupils also contracted, and he admired Oscar's methods even more.
After coming to this world for twelve years, this was the first time he had encountered a Spirit Master as powerful as Oscar, one so proficient in using his Martial Soul.
"This is the genius Spirit Master who reached level forty-seven at fourteen? Truly formidable!" Tang San couldn't help but mutter to himself: "But what I'm best at isn't just throwing hidden weapons, but mechanical-type hidden weapons!"
In an instant, Tang San suddenly raised both hands, his muscles contracting. A buzzing sound immediately came from Tang San's cuffs, and a flurry of gleaming steel needles sprayed out from his cuff position, carrying a thick mist, heading straight for Oscar's face.
The distance between him and Oscar wasn't too far. The moment Oscar released it, a mist carrying the fragrance of tea instantly spread out. However, Oscar wasn't worried about poisoning at all because he was already immune to all poisons.
Facing Tang San's hidden weapon attack again, Oscar skillfully manipulated five flying swords to form a sword formation in front of him, not giving Tang San any chance to attack him.
At the same time, he controlled the Frost Moon Sword to directly kill Tang San. Oscar understood that although Tang San's hidden weapons were quite powerful, they posed no threat to him, so Oscar decided to stop playing around.
The Frost Moon Sword arrived in an instant. This time, Tang San simply couldn't dodge. As expected, countless Blue Silver Grass tried to block it, but his Blue Silver Grass was simply too fragile and couldn't block the Frost Moon Sword's blade at all, instantly being torn to shreds.
Just as the Frost Moon Sword was about to pierce Tang San's body, Tang San's left hand suddenly erupted with a burst of Spirit Power light, and a small black hammer had somehow appeared in his hand.
The small black hammer didn't look remarkable, but it seemed extremely heavy. Tang San swung the hammer forcefully, and this seemingly insignificant small hammer actually knocked away the incoming Frost Moon Sword!
Seeing this, Oscar feigned surprise and slightly frowned: "Twin Spirit Souls?"
Hearing Oscar's doubt, Tang San instantly realized he had been careless. Was the secret of his Twin Spirit Souls about to be exposed like this?
But in the heat of the moment, he had no better way to dodge or defend against Oscar's Frost Moon Sword, which was why he couldn't resist using his second Spirit Soul.
Although the Frost Moon Sword was knocked away, Oscar didn't stop his attack. The five flying swords that formed the sword array blocked Tang San's mechanical-type hidden weapons and once again charged toward Tang San.
At this moment, Tang had already consumed a large amount of Spirit Power, and almost all of his means had been used up, but he still couldn't bring any pressure to Oscar, not even touching the opponent's skin.
Even though Tang San was an extremely proud person, at this moment, he had to admit Oscar's strength, a strength so great that it made him feel not the slightest bit of resistance.
Thinking of this, Tang San without hesitation withdrew his second Spirit Soul, pretending it was just a weapon, and then hea large amount of urged Blue Silver Grass to wrap around him, trying to resist Oscar's attack for a while.
He had just glanced with the corner of his eye and saw that the sausage had one-fifth left left. As long as he persisted for a few more minutes, this sausage would burn out.
At this moment, Tang San desperately wanted to enter this Shrek Academy. He wanted to study and compete alongside super geniuses like Oscar! So no matter what, he would not easily admit defeat.
However, Oscar had no intention of continuing to play. The five flying swords instantly broke through the Blue Silver Grass and positioned themselves at Tang San's neck, chest, face, and knees. Just as Tang San had thrown hidden weapons at Oscar before, they aimed at vital positions.
Under such a deadly threat, Tang San stopped his movements and looked at the incense that was almost burned out, slightly sighing.
"We... lost..."
Ning Rongrong looked at this scene and was a little unhappy, but he couldn't say anything because Oscar's strength was simply too great. Even she could see that Oscar had been sparring with Tang San all along, actively taking Tang San's attacks.
However, although Tang San's attack methods were fancy, they seemed to have no effect on Oscar.
This also made Ning Rongrong think of something Grandpa Sword had said: "In the face of absolute strength, any skill is illusory!"
"So... so powerful..." Ning Rongrong couldn't help but exclaim.
Oscar glanced lightly at Tang San, then waved his hand to withdraw his Spirit Soul, and the flying swords that had surrounded him also dispersed as Spirit Power light.
Oscar's voice sounded lightly: "You three are not bad, but you still lack cooperation too much. However, your combat ability is quite good. Although you haven't officially passed my assessment, you have qualified to enter Shrek Academy. Congratulations."
Hearing this, Tang San and Ning Rongrong were first stunned, then both felt a surge of joy in their hearts. Ning Rongrong still asked in disbelief: "P-Passed?"
Oscar nodded: "But don't get too excited yet. Our Shrek Academy isn't that easy to get into. After this, you'll have to undergo the most rigorous training until you become qualified Spirit Masters."
Getting confirmation again, Tang San also couldn't suppress his excitement. This was the kind of Shrek Academy that was worth joining!
But soon his excitement disappeared because Xiao Wu was still unconscious in the center of the Dou Soul Platform.
Tang San quickly took two steps at a time to Xiao Wu's side and held her in his arms: "Xiao Wu! Xiao Wu! Are you okay?! We passed!!"
Looking at the anxious Tang San, Oscar said softly: "She's fine, she was just counter-attacked by her own second Spirit Skill's spiritual power."
As he spoke, Oscar took out a super recovery sausage from his Spirit Device and threw it to Tang San: "Have her eat this. She'll be fine after two days of rest."
Tang San took the sausage, hesitated slightly, then fed it to Xiao Wu. As soon as the sausage entered her mouth, it turned into pure energy that flowed into her body. Xiao Wu's originally pale face quickly improved. After a while, Xiao Wu drowsily opened her eyes.
"Brother? I... what happened to me? My head hurts so much..." Xiao Wu said drowsily in Tang San's arms, holding her head.
Seeing Xiao Wu wake up, Tang San immediately stuffed her into his chest: "It's okay... it's okay, it's my fault, I didn't protect you well..."
Oscar looked at this so-called brother-sister act with an expressionless face, sighed inwardly, then said to Zhu Zhuqing on the high platform: "Zhuqing, take Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong to the girls' dormitory later."
After speaking, Oscar turned to Dai Mubai and said: "Mubai, you take Tang San."
Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing agreed, and after Xiao Wu recovered, they took them to the dormitory.
Meanwhile, Oscar and Dugu Yan were still here responsible for the assessment, because besides the original members of the Shrek Seven Devils, there were also applicants who could reach the fourth round, though most couldn't pass the practical assessment.
On the way to the dormitory, Tang San couldn't help but ask Dai Mubai: "Senior Dai, how old are you now?"
Hearing this, Dai Mubai smiled: "What? Feeling pressured after experiencing Oscar's strength? I advise you not to have such thoughts. After all, he's a monster, there's no need to compare ourselves to a monster."
Hearing this, Tang San nodded: "I think only by comparing with people like this can there be real meaning."
Looking at Tang San's serious expression, Dai Mubai didn't intend to joke anymore and replied: "I'm fifteen years old, with Spirit Power level thirty-nine. My talent can't compare to Oscar's. His existence completely overturned our previous understanding of Spirit Masters, but it's precisely because of him that I, and the other people of our Shrek Academy, can have today's achievements."
Hearing this, Tang San became even more curious about Oscar. Although Dai Mubai was also exceptionally talented, reaching level thirty-nine at fifteen, compared to Oscar, Tang San felt that others didn't seem important anymore.
He had already experienced Oscar's strength, but if it was about overturning the previous understanding of Spirit Masters? Tang San didn't feel that at all.
So Tang San once again asked his question: "Senior, what do you mean by that? Senior Oscar's strength is indeed the most top-notch I've ever seen, but your words are a bit too exaggerated, aren't they?"
Looking at Tang San's disbelieving expression, Dai Mubai still smiled: "It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, I can tell you slowly."
Tang San replied seriously: "I'm all ears."
Regarding Oscar, Tang San at this moment truly wanted to learn about the achievements of a genius at this level.
As a reborn person, this was the first time Tang San had such intense curiosity for someone of the same age.
There was no other reason, mainly because Oscar was only fourteen years old, yet his Spirit Power level reached the terrifying forty-seventh rank. This kind of talent completely overturned all of Teacher Yu Xiaogang's cultivation theories, making the knowledge Tang San had learned from Yu Xiaogang over the past few years seem insufficient.
Most importantly, Oscar's strength was equally terrifying. He defeated three opponents without even using any Spirit Skills.
The most crucial point was that even when Tang San used all his trump cards, he couldn't even touch the corner of Oscar's clothes, and couldn't even make the opponent move a single step before he was completely defeated.
And Dai Mubai wasn't surprised by Tang San's reaction either, because Brother Oscar was also an unimaginable existence to him.
Over these three years, Dai Mubai had truly changed a lot, which could be seen from his willingness to address Oscar as Brother Oscar.
Nowadays, Oscar had absolute say in Shrek Academy, and even some decisions made by Flander and others would still be discussed with Oscar.
In Flander's eyes, the fourteen-year-old Oscar was no longer just a child, but someone like them.
Dai Mubai explained: "You personally experienced Brother Oscar's strength today, but do you know? Brother Oscar's Spirit Soul is not the Frost Moon Sword. The Frost Moon Sword is actually his teacher's Spirit Soul, while his own Spirit Soul is the ultimate food-type Sausage."
Dai Mubai's words once again shocked Tang San. What did it mean that Senior Oscar's Spirit Soul wasn't his own, but his teacher's?
Tang San's own teacher was called Grandmaster, a person who knew everything about Spirit Master theoretical knowledge, but he had never heard of anyone being able to use their teacher's Spirit Soul.
And what did it mean that Senior Oscar's Spirit Soul was a food-type Spirit Soul? Then what was that sharp sword that could directly cut him in half just now? Did I, Tang San, see things wrong?
Looking at Tang San's somewhat dazed expression, Dai Mubai continued to explain: "Don't be anxious first, I'll explain it to you slowly."
Tang San nodded somewhat blankly, even he was a bit stunned after hearing Dai Mubai's previous words.
He only heard Dai Mubai continue: "Brother Oscar's Spirit Soul is food-type, and he is also an innate full Spirit Power food-type super genius. The reason he can have his teacher's Spirit Soul is because of the effect of one of his special Spirit Skills. I can't tell you the specifics now, I must get Brother Oscar's permission to tell you."
"But you only need to know that although Brother Oscar is himself a food-type Spirit Master, his combat ability surpasses any type of Spirit Master of the same level, and even his own auxiliary ability is an unmatched existence."
"The sausage you just fed to your girlfriend was Oscar's first Spirit Skill—Super Recovery Big Sausage!"
Hearing this, Tang San finally gained a rough understanding of what Oscar truly was, but Dai Mubai's last sentence made Tang San blush a little.
Tang San explained with a cough, "Uh, Senior, Xiao Wu isn't my girlfriend. She's my sister."
Hearing this, Dai Mubai looked at Tang San in surprise, then just gave a faint smile: "A sister, ah, a sister is much better than a girlfriend."
Dai Mubai couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "A girlfriend is much harder to deal with than a sister..."
There's so much I could write in these few chapters, but you all say I'm padding the story. Actually, I've already omitted a lot of things; what I've written is all content that sets up for later developments. It's really not padding, brothers!
By the way, do you want to see Tang San being tortured or trained? Personally, I prefer training him, since too many fanfictions just torture him, and it gets boring to keep torturing him.
