Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Chapter 496: Chapter 495: Time Crocodile and Red-crowned Crane Demon



Hearing his words, Tang San couldn\'t help but feel stirred, the eldest brother makes sense! Since coming to the Ancestral Court, the cultivation of his companions had improved considerably, but they hadn\'t participated in any real combat. It was clear they were not yet fit to take part in the Ancestral Court Elite Competition, their cultivation base still lacking, but watching the battles was also a good opportunity. They could witness the top-notch competition among the younger generation of the year. All these were top-level clashes between bloodlines, not only from the Monsters but also from the Spirit Monster Race. Such opportunities were indeed rare!

"I think it\'s possible, I\'ll go to the Spirit Rhinoceros Commerce to get tickets. They should be able to get them. After today\'s competition ends, I\'ll take care of this matter. Then you can go and watch the matches. The subsequent competitions shouldn\'t last too long, half a day should be about right, you can continue your cultivation with the time left."

"Really? That\'s great." Cheng Zicheng jubilantly said, "Are there any matches with the Immortal Phoenix Tribe? I want to see them. Lately, I\'ve been climbing the Holy Mountain of the Undying Great Demon Emperor and it really feels different. That kind of oppression at the bloodline level is especially painful, but it seems to have a strong stimulating effect on my bloodline too. I really want to see what this race is like in combat."

Tang San said, "Although I haven\'t encountered them yet, there must be. All the powerful races are participating."

"That\'s great, then I\'ll leave the ticket to you," Cheng Zicheng said, all smiles.

Tang San turned his head to look at Du Bai, and said, "Brother Du Bai, I\'m afraid you can\'t go to watch the competition, there are rules that people of the Heavenly Fox Clan can\'t be involved in the Ancestral Court Elite Competition, to prevent affecting the fairness of the competition. Not even as spectators. And since you\'re human, the fact that you have Heavenly Fox lineage absolutely cannot be revealed, you better keep climbing the mountain."

The color drained from Du Bai\'s face, "I\'m left out again? This isn\'t fair."

Gu Li put an arm around his shoulder, hehe laughing, "There is never something absolutely fair in this world. Just bear with it, kid."

"Hmph!" Du Bai snorted with pretended indifference, but did not say anything more.

After having breakfast and bidding farewell to his companions, Tang San hurriedly headed to the Ancestral Court Square again. Today was the day of the doubles match, and combinations of three or five were to battle once more. He just didn\'t know what kind of opponents they\'d face today.

He arrived at the arena early again, but he didn\'t have to wait long, as Pretty Girl had already arrived.

Upon meeting, they exchanged a smile and together they went to the waiting area, waiting for their match to start. For the doubles competition, they were the first group, basically starting off with them. It was better to compete first; after the competition, they could return to their cultivation earlier.

Tang San found that although yesterday\'s battle was tough, after a hard fight, once he dealt with the fire poison problem and continued cultivation, the effects were noticeably better than usual. This might be the benefit of stimulating potential through combat.

Yet, he had no idea what kind of opponents they would encounter today.

"The Sunflower Spirit Clan was really strong yesterday. If it were a one-on-one situation, it would be difficult for me to handle," Pretty Girl said to Tang San.

Tang San nodded and said, "Its scorching sun fire can even melt space cracks. If you encounter the Sunflower Spirit Clan, make sure not to give the opponent a chance to fully bloom, attack decisively right from the start, and suppress the opponent until they\'re defeated. This might be the best way to handle them. I didn\'t know that yesterday, and nearly suffered a big loss."

"Go for an overwhelming attack through a burst of aggression? Makes sense," Pretty Girl\'s eyes lit up.

Tang San said, "But we still need to be careful. The Sunflower Spirit Clan definitely knows their weakness, so they\'ll surely have measures to counter it. However, your teleportation ability allows you to close in on the opponent quickly. When you encounter them, just go all out with a rapid close-range burst, and finishing them off in one go would be ideal."

"Got it," Pretty Girl nodded thoughtfully.

The audience had already taken their seats, and the fighters were almost all present. The competition was about to begin.

Tang San and Pretty Girl\'s match, astonishingly, was the first one scheduled.

This meant that before entering the final rounds, they would be the first to compete. Tang San actually disliked this; it was too conspicuous. Their human-like appearance made it more so. Pretty Girl was slightly better off since the Peacock Demon Clan also looked quite similar to humans, but it was different for him. He had yet to fully display his bloodline power in combat, and being mysterious had its advantages. Being in the first round and under scrutiny made it easier for others to focus and analyze him.

However, since they were here, they had to face it.

Tang San and Pretty Girl ascended the number one platform together. Across from them, their two opponents also took the stage.

Monsters! That was Tang San\'s immediate judgment, and then his expression became somewhat odd. Because, from a racial perspective, the opponents before him were indeed familiar. One of them was a tall figure, roughly over two meters with scales on the forehead, protrusions on the back, extending down to a large tail. He was unmistakably from the relatively rare Time Crocodile Clan.

Encountering an opponent from this clan, Tang San was genuinely delighted! To participate in the Ancestral Court Elite Competition, one must be at least level 9, and devouring its bloodline would greatly benefit the enhancement of his own Time Crocodile bloodline intensity. Although Senior Brother Gu Li now had the bloodline essence, cultivation enhancement would still take time. But if he devoured a sufficient Bloodline Brand from this Time Crocodile opponent, it would be no problem to elevate the intensity of his Time Crocodile Bloodline Brand to the peak of level 8. Furthermore, if he made a breakthrough to level 9 within a short period, it was possible to promote the Time Crocodile Brand directly to level 9.

Appearing alongside this Time Crocodile was a formidable opponent with wings on the back, evidently a member of the Sword Saint Big Demon Emperor lineage, the Red-crowned Crane Demon.

Tang San had encountered a Red-crowned Crane Demon opponent back in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena in Jiali City. With swordsmanship that was a legacy of the Sword Saint, the Red-crowned Crane Demon was not easy to handle on the battlefield. But certainly, the one he had faced before couldn\'t compare to this true elite who represented the Red-crowned Crane lineage in the Ancestral Court Elite Competition. This one had to be a direct inheritor of the true elite.

This pair of combinations, one skilled in Time Control and the other a swordsmanship expert. Their cooperation could already be imagined. Tang San himself possessed the Time Variation Seal, and almost instantly came up with the enemy\'s likely team strategy.

Tang San turned to Pretty Girl and said, "The inheritance of the Sword Saint Big Demon Emperor combined with Time Variation. Time attributes will affect you somewhat, I\'ll deal with the Time Crocodile, and you face the Red-crowned Crane Demon. After I deal with the Time Crocodile, I\'ll come help you."

Pretty Girl nodded. Tang San\'s arrangement was still based on the strategy of fighting separately. One-on-one. With their teleportation ability, they could fully manage to divide the battlefield.

It wasn\'t that Tang San didn\'t want to cooperate with Pretty Girl, but rather that it wasn\'t the time to do so yet. They couldn\'t allow stronger opponents to learn about their capabilities too early.

"The match begins." Just at this moment, the referee officially announced the beginning of the match.

Instantly, a sharp light gleamed in the eyes of the Red-crowned Crane Demon opponent. In that moment, its body seemed to vanish, and the only thing that remained was that sword beam in the world, as if it was the sword, and the sword was it. Once the sword beam was released, it seemed as though the entire platform was lit by that bright sword light. The extremely sharp aura was slicing through the air around Tang San and Pretty Girl.
