Chapter 298: Shrimp And Pork Heart?
Imagine, the rulers of two forces are talking, and suddenly they are interrupted by someone’s subordinate.
What is this?
Not to mention, the subordinate dared to curse Sect Leader Ling directly without the ruler’s agreement, bypassing her. Isn’t this indirectly saying that Spirit Hall is the one who has the final say?
Sect Leader Ling’s move truly dealt a harsh blow to Bibi Dong and indirectly harmed Moon Pass and Ghostly.
“Good grief! Who the hell is this? With just a few simple words, he shut up the majestic Pope of Spirit Hall…”
“I just heard them say that this young man is the recently rising Ghost Gate Sect Master, Sect Leader Ling!”
“The sect master of Ghost Gate? Indeed impressive. His guile is even more terrifying than those old monsters…”
The accompanying distinguished guests from the Star Luo Empire side also showed surprised expressions.
Only now did they realize that the person boasting shamelessly here was actually the legendary sect master of Ghost Gate.
They all watched the bickering between Spirit Hall and Ghost Gate like it was a good show.
No one intervened, because they all knew one reason.
When two tigers fight, one is sure to get hurt!
In the current continent, among the sect forces, aside from the already retired Haotian Sect, the most prominent are Spirit Hall and the newly emerged Ghost Gate.
Everyone wanted to see what would happen when Spirit Hall and Ghost Gate exploded into war…
“You two, go receive your punishment on your own. I’m not dead yet; it’s not your turn to point fingers here…”
In the end, Bibi Dong said coldly to Moon Pass and Ghostly.
These two had to be punished; if not, wouldn’t it indirectly admit that she, as Pope, was just an empty title?
The Pope hadn’t spoken, so what reason did subordinates have to speak… and moreover, to boast shamelessly to a sect master on the same level as the Pope.
Such rule-breaking behavior, in the eyes of other onlookers, was just dragging down Spirit Hall’s image.
“Yes…”
Moon Pass and Ghostly said dejectedly, led down by two Red Robe Bishops to receive their punishment on their own.
“Good grief, this kid is indeed formidable. Without any effort, with just two sentences, he played two Titled Douluo in the palm of his hand…”
“This kid is truly terrifying. We’d better stay away from him to avoid being calculated…”
Sect Leader Ling’s performance was seen by everyone. At this moment, no one dared to underestimate him anymore.
Seeing that Moon Pass and Ghostly had been taken away, Sect Leader Ling was overjoyed inside.
Regardless of whether these two were actually punished or not, it didn’t matter. What mattered was that he had won this verbal war.
The joy from this victory was hard to suppress, to the point that Sect Leader Ling’s face was beaming with a happy smile.
This made Bibi Dong increasingly furious, wishing she could summon her Martial Soul True Body and beat this kid to death.
She had never seen such a shameless person; he was simply the king of trash talk.
If not for her status, Bibi Dong would have cursed him out. This shameless guy was too infuriating.
“Heh heh, Sect Master! Brilliant…”
Even Dugu Bo was extremely impressed. How had he not thought of this move?
It could only be said that Sect Leader Ling’s ability to adapt to circumstances was too strong. This time, Spirit Hall’s aura had weakened considerably. Everyone present was itching with hatred but had no way to deal with Sect Leader Ling.
“Keep a low profile, keep a low profile! Watch carefully, learn well…”
Sect Leader Ling laughed smugly. When it came to verbal skills, he had never lost to anyone.
Back in the day, he had relied on this mouth of his to swindle and deceive his way to where he was today.
It had to be said that Sect Leader Ling’s words had infuriated Bibi Dong enough, even making Qian Renxue on the side want to laugh.
Qian Renxue had been present the whole time, but due to her status, she hadn’t approached here.
As the person in charge of the accompanying team for this Heaven Dou Competition Area, she could also be on this stage.
The Star Luo royal family side also had a person in charge, but it wasn’t the Crown Prince; it was a Titled Douluo.
Qian Renxue had never seen Bibi Dong this angry before. She always had that icy expression, never showing any other face even to Qian Renxue.
Today, she finally saw Bibi Dong with such a furious expression, as if discovering a new continent.
It was strange too; this mother-daughter pair were like enemies. Whenever one got angry, the other was delighted.
The match below was almost over! Shrek Academy versus Divine Wind Academy. Divine Wind Academy directly withdrew, so… Shrek Academy didn’t expose their final killing move.
Meanwhile, a team from Spirit Hall and the Star Luo royal family had also fought to a near end. Spirit Hall had almost crushed that team out of the competition.
In this match, the most exciting part wasn’t the match below, but the conversation among these big shots on the VIP seating.
“Mm! As expected of Spirit Hall’s most outstanding Golden Generation team. Indeed formidable…”
Seeing the end, Sect Leader Ling said admiringly. Everyone thought he was softening and starting to praise Spirit Hall’s team.
Unexpectedly, his last sentence was even more biting.
“What a pity! All flash and no substance, flashy, pretty but without any practical things…”
Shrimp roe on a pig’s heart?
Ask yourself, what’s the most direct way to strike at a team?
Simple: directly praise their soul skills as pretty and colorful.
What does that imply? It’s simple—praising your soul skills as pretty means that’s your only feature.
When people praise a team, they mostly praise the team’s strength, coordination, tactics, and so on.
This guy, on the other hand, just praises your soul skills as pretty! Beyond pretty soul skills, they’re useless, all flash and no substance.
Among soul masters, the most direct recognition is strength, not how good-looking the soul skills are. Praising soul skills as good-looking means your soul skills aren’t powerful.
“Haha, indeed quite pretty!”
Dugu Bo laughed in agreement, making it seem like the two were just talking to each other.
But everyone could hear it!
“It seems Sect Leader Ling’s anticipated Shrek Academy is even more outstanding?
I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s match, to see if it’s really as Sect Leader Ling said!”
Bibi Dong said with an ugly expression. Her proud Golden Generation was so worthless in Sect Leader Ling’s eyes.
One could imagine, next… if this team failed, what would be their fate?
This Pope’s fury wouldn’t be so easily appeased!
What was lost wasn’t just their faces, but Spirit Hall’s face.
Tomorrow’s match hadn’t even started, and things were already tense with gunpowder everywhere.
“Don’t worry! You’ll definitely be surprised!”
Sect Leader Ling laughed meaningfully. He never worried that Shrek Academy would lose, because of Tang San.
For others, Sect Leader Ling might not be at ease, but for Tang San, he was 100% confident.
What a joke—the son of the plane would lose? Except for losing to the cheating Sect Leader Ling, Tang San had never lost to anyone.
Not to mention, Shrek Seven Devils still had a big move hidden. Wait until tomorrow… when that big move comes out, it would definitely be enough to deter the whole audience.
“Your Excellency the Pope! See you tomorrow. Hope you have a wonderful night. Bye-bye…”
Seeing Shrek Academy below preparing to leave, Sect Leader Ling gave Bibi Dong a meaningful greeting, then left the VIP seating with Dugu Bo.
