Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

However, no one noticed that while they were summoning the Dark Infernal Tiger, Du Bai, who was positioned at the back of the Shrek Squad, had a subtle ripple of white around him. Something seemed to be stirring in the air.

The Dark Infernal Tiger let out an earth-shattering roar and used its enormous body to enshroud the five Infernal Tigers. This Dark Infernal Tiger exuded an aura at the peak of the ninth order, and it seemed to have energy even more powerful than that. The darkness element frantically dispelled the ice element in the air.

But at that moment, the ninth-order Infernal Tiger positioned at the center in order to perform the Dark Infernal Tiger combination technique, suddenly felt a chill throughout its body. Although it had dispelled most of the cold, a sharp pain shot through its shoulder. In this state of pain, another cold wave entered its heart, causing it to palpitate.

The Dark Infernal Tiger, just about to take form, suddenly lost the crucial support of its main summoner’s power. Its enormous body wavered, and the four eighth-order Dark Infernal Tigers felt as if they had misapplied their strength. The coordination that had never once failed thus broke down, and the Dark Infernal Tiger exploded into a large cloud of black mist, rippling in the air. The five Infernal Tigers suffered the backlash, and all of them grunted simultaneously. The ninth-order Infernal Tiger spat out a mouthful of blood, its face full of disbelief.

The gigantic Dark Infernal Tiger, which had initially filled the human audience with dread, vanished into thin air. It was like a black... paper tiger!

At that instant, Wu Bingji's second ice spear shot out like lightning, with unstoppable momentum and an icy aura.

The ninth-order Dark Infernal Tiger didn't dare to be careless. The black flames wrapping around it flared up even more intensely as it forcibly dissolved the remaining ice elemental energy within itself at all costs. It was burning its life force, causing its bloodline to erupt to the extreme.

It had faced that spear once, and it understood perfectly well how terrifying it was. As it had ninth-order cultivation and a high-tier bloodline, it could also ignite its bloodline, just like Wu Bingji had done that day. In a desperate attempt, it swept at the ice spear with its claws.

Boom——

The ice spear exploded, but not because it had collided with the ninth-order Infernal Tiger. Instead, it exploded when it was still fifteen meters away.

Four beams of cold light shot out from the exploding ice spear and almost instantly vanished.

The four eighth-order Infernal Tigers didn't even have time to react. Under secondary acceleration, the four icicles had already pierced through their eyes and penetrated their brains.

Yes, this second ice spear did not target the ninth-order Infernal Tiger. It was a feint to mask its actual target.

With peak ninth-order spiritual power, as well as the control over ice granted by a peak ninth-order cultivation, how could Wu Bingji’s power be the same as before?

Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Four heads exploded like fireworks. The four eighth-order Infernal Tigers died simultaneously under the terrifying icicle penetration and detonation. With that, the Shrek Squad added four more demon kills to their headshot record.

The ninth-order Infernal Tiger burning its life force for a full-strength attack, found its strike landing in space. It even saw the mocking expression on the opponent's face. In a moment, blood rushed to its head. It let out a frenzied roar and charged at Wu Bingji, ignoring the collapsing Darkness Domain.

What awaited it were several thick ice walls rising from the ground.

When the seventh ice wall shattered, the ninth-order Infernal Tiger's burning bloodline power finally ended, and its aura rapidly declined. An ice spear descended from the sky with a graceful parabolic trajectory, pinning it harshly to the ground.

The announcer opened his mouth, but no words came out! Having watched the entire match from the stands, he wanted to say he had guessed correctly. The battle was indeed resolved within six minutes. However, the winning side was opposite to what he had predicted.

Who could have imagined that the Shrek Squad, which had struggled in their previous battle, would crush an objectively stronger opponent in this fifth match in under five minutes? From start to finish, only Wu Bingji had taken action. Despite being only of the eighth order in cultivation, he unleashed the mighty strength of a peak ninth-order. His mastery of the ice spear and icicle reached an astonishing level.

The headshot maniac once again completed a headshot, this time on the Infernal Tigers.

The sharp-eyed spectators focused on the golden patterns on the ground and Du Bai, who held the array disc.

Through five team battles, the one who seemed the least combative appeared to be the real reason for this victory.

They weren't mistaken, but the spectators did not know that besides the Spirit Fusion Array, misfortune was also a crucial factor in deciding this battle.

Misfortune struck when the Dark Infernal Tiger was forming, causing the ninth-order Infernal Tiger to misapply its strength, leading to the Dark Infernal Tiger’s instant collapse. Their most potent technique didn't even get a chance to be fully executed, resulting in their swift defeat.

The sixth-order Celestial Fox Transformation, the Three-Tailed Celestial Fox, was no longer useless on the battlefield; in this fight, it had played a critical role.

The ease of this victory was so ridiculous that even the Shrek Squad found it hard to believe.

Wu Bingji's first reaction after killing the ninth-order Infernal Tiger was to look back at Tang San. He could hardly believe they had won just like that.

Tang San gave him a slight nod.

Wu Bingji had combined the hidden weapon techniques of the Tang Sect with his elemental control and had already achieved mastery.

The Spirit Fusion Array seemed powerful, but it was mainly because the opponent wasn't strong enough. No matter how great the Spirit Fusion Array was, it couldn't elevate their power to the god level. So, it seemed highly effective now, but as their cultivation improved, the effectiveness of the array would diminish. It would have been different if today's opponents had included a peak ninth-order expert. Moreover, it was Du Bai's ability to bestow misfortune that prevented the opponent from using their most powerful move. Without that, it would undoubtedly have been a tough battle. This seemingly easy victory was actually due to multiple factors.

Of course, a win was a win, and this was the Shrek Squad's fifth.

Cheers erupted from the human spectator area. Once again, humans had won, defeating a stronger opponent and showcasing even greater strength. How could they not be overjoyed? They truly saw hope for humanity!

As they left the battlefield, the Bloodthirsty Demon Ape was already waiting there. Its expression was more solemn than ever. Nodding to the five members of the Shrek Squad, it said, "Please follow me."

With that, it made a gesture of invitation and led the way inside.

Tang San and his team followed behind it, not returning to the rest area as usual but heading deeper into the Great Beast Fighting Arena.

"Where are you taking us?" Wu Bingji couldn't help but ask.

The Bloodthirsty Demon Ape stopped and said in a deep voice, "The arena master wants to meet you."

Wu Bingji was about to say something more, but Tang San stopped him and said, "Alright."

The Bloodthirsty Demon Ape continued forward, with Tang San and the others following behind. Wu Bingji gave Tang San a questioning look, his expression clearly showing some concern. Tang San gently shook his head, signaling him to stay calm.

They walked for a considerable time, passing through a wide passageway. The area ahead suddenly opened up, revealing a luxurious hall. After passing through a corridor adorned with obviously valuable paintings, they finally stopped before an archway with double doors.

The Bloodthirsty Demon Ape signaled for them to wait a moment, then entered ahead.

A moment later, it returned and gestured for Tang San and the others to follow.

Led by the Bloodthirsty Demon Ape, the five entered a lavishly decorated room.
