Chapter 526: You Missed the Excitement

They used to think Tang San was the odd one out, so they didn't expect Mei Gongzi to have the same extraordinary abilities. In other words... it wasn't something only Tang San could achieve. There were other geniuses in this world, and Tang San and Mei Gongzi were human too! If they could do it, why couldn't the Shrek Squad? Why couldn’t other people do it too?

With a flicker of silver light, Mei Gongzi appeared in front of Tang San out of thin air.

They exchanged smiles, he gave her a thumbs up, and Mei Gongzi, feeling a bit proud, lifted her chin slightly before bursting into laughter. Her gaze became even gentler as she looked at him.

Everyone had witnessed her power just now, but only she knew that it was her Big Brother Asura's guidance that set her on the right path. Without learning the Mysterious Circles of Heaven, she couldn't have understood the profound meaning of space and the relationship between herself and space, so how could she truly integrate with space? Now, she was a true love child of space; since space was everywhere, so was she.

The Mysterious Circles of Heaven had allowed her to reach this enlightenment, elevating her understanding to another level.

It was only now, as she executed the technique in a perfectly natural manner, that she realized the Mysterious Circles of Heaven was not just a defensive technique, but also a foundational technique for cultivating other space-related ones. This "little trick" as Asura called it, was incredibly powerful. What a precious divine technique it was, and yet he had taught it to her without reservation!

At that moment, Big Cat, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, exhaled deeply and slowly opened his eyes.

"Thank you," he said, looking at Tang San and nodding in gratitude.

"How are you?" Tang San asked.

Big Cat replied, "I've gained control for now. It's a very peculiar power. It feels like I've suddenly gained a lot, but it’s going to be difficult to rein in."

Tang San said, "When you use this power in the future, you must remember to always stay true to your heart. Never let your inner killing intent disturb you. Always bear in mind the conviction that strengthened your will when you first gained access to this power. That way, you can control it and make it a power you can wield."

Big Cat stood up, looking at Tang San in surprise. "You seem to know an awful lot about this ability. Have you seen it before?"

Tang San smiled slightly and said, "You can call it the God-Killing Domain. Under its influence, all your abilities will be enhanced, and it will also intimidate your opponents. It's similar to the Bloodstained Domain used by the Dark Devil Monarch, but purer, untainted by resentment and other such emotions. It won't backfire, but you must be careful not to let the killing intent blind you."

"God-Killing Domain? That's a good name." Big Cat's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but praise it. "You know... I often feel like you can do anything and know everything...."

"Uh-huh." Mei Gongzi nodded in agreement. She felt the same way.

Tang San laughed and said, "Then you can consider me an all-knowing, omnipotent god. And your god of fortune, too. Anyway, let’s go. Our matches are over; we can head back."

Big Cat was a bit surprised. "Did I meditate that long? Mei Gongzi's match is over too?"

Tang San laughed. "You missed an exciting match. If you get to fight her in the future, you'll see."

Big Cat also grinned. "Let's hope the lots don’t pit us against each other too soon."

"Hard to say, now that we’re in the finals. With the three of us taking up three of the sixteen spots, the chances of fighting each other aren't low. We'll see how it goes. Hopefully, we won't end up facing each other in the first round. After that, we'll leave it to fate."

They were not all that likely to meet each other in the first round, but in the second round, with only eight people remaining, they might need some... luck to avoid each other. The best scenario, of course, would be for them to only meet in the semifinals. This way, two of them could make it to the finals, which would be the ideal outcome.

Of course, the opponents in the finals would undoubtedly be stronger.

While Mei Gongzi's match was happening, Tang San went to watch some of the other matches. There were indeed some very strong contestants, and Mei Gongzi wasn't the only one with a divine weapon.

At this moment, several figures entered the waiting area and immediately scanned the entire area. Since there were only a few contestants left, the waiting area appeared quite empty. Their gazes quickly locked onto Tang San and the other two, and they immediately strode toward them.

It was clear that they were focused on Mei Gongzi.

Mei Gongzi looked at Tang San, who smiled slightly and said, "Let's go."

Before those emperors’ envoys could approach, a silver light flashed around Mei Gongzi, Tang San and Big Cat, and in the next moment, they disappeared.

Mei Gongzi's control over space had become increasingly refined, and now, she could teleport with others no problem. Although she couldn't teleport over long distances just yet, she could do it instantaneously.

The moment they popped up outside the competition venue, Big Cat said, "I'll go ahead! I need to stabilize this God-Killing Domain. You two take your time!"

As he spoke, he sprinted off and quickly disappeared from Tang San and Mei Gongzi's sight.

He wasn't an idiot, and he could naturally tell Tang San's feelings for Mei Gongzi. It had been obvious since Tang San chose her over him for the duo competition. Moreover, Mei Gongzi's ability to continuously defeat strong opponents and advance to the finals made Big Cat hold her in even higher regard. Such a powerful woman was rare.

Seeing Big Cat leave, Mei Gongzi looked at Tang San and said, "Big Brother Asura, thank you."

Tang San smiled and said, "I swore to serve you, so there's no need to thank me. You are my master, after all."

Mei Gongzi's cheeks turned slightly red. "What master? You know you can't just make blood oaths like that."

Tang San replied helplessly, "If I didn't, would your father let me go? Besides, I did it willingly. I would never betray you anyway."

Mei Gongzi laughed. "Then if I become the city lord in the future, I'll make you the deputy city lord."

"That won’t be necessary. Just let me be your personal guard... to protect you closely," replied Tang San.

Mei Gongzi clearly didn't catch his implication. "Wouldn't that be too much trouble for you? That sounds unfair."

Tang San smiled, "There's no trouble at all. Where are you going now? Back to your place?"

Mei Gongzi was about to say something when a familiar voice came from behind. "Yes, we’re going back."

They turned around to see none other than the Peacock Great Demon King.

Tang San felt a bit helpless. Why is he here again?

The Peacock Great Demon King's expression looked somewhat complicated as he approached them. He nodded at Tang San, then raised his hand, enveloping himself and Mei Gongzi in silver light, and they disappeared.

With Mei Gongzi gone, Tang San felt a sudden sense of loss.

She just left like that! Oh well, it is what it is. There's still the doubles competition tomorrow.

The individual competition had already entered the finals, and tomorrow's doubles match would determine whether they could advance from their group. If they advanced, this would be enough for Mei Gongzi to make a name for herself, making it easier to gain the Ancestral Court's recognition. It would be best if they could win a championship, of course. At that point, if the Ancestral Court wanted to target the Peacock Demon clan, they would have to consider whether they might be facing a future Demon Emperor.

From what Tang San had observed of the Demon Emperors he had encountered, it was unlikely that they would interfere with Mei Gongzi's growth unless it was absolutely necessary. After all, there was a subtle competition between the demon and nymph races. Having more Demon Emperors than Nymph Emperors would naturally be advantageous for the former. The Solstice Empire might end up having to bow to the Empyrean Dominion.
