Wang Dong'er's eyes sharpened, her feet moved, and she instantly performed the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step.
Her figure left several afterimages in place, and she narrowly brushed past the edge.
Boom—!
That terrifying Spirit Power slammed into the wall behind her, blowing a huge hole directly through the entire wall!
Rubble splashed, dust filled the air, and the entire restaurant trembled violently. The chandelier on the ceiling teetered, and shards crashed to the floor.
Seeing his palm strike miss, Shen Ce frowned slightly.
This movement technique was much more exquisite than he had imagined.
However, before he could strike again, Wang Dong'er had already exchanged glances with Xiao Xiao, Xu Xiaoyan, and Xi'er.
No words were needed; the four of them moved simultaneously!
Xiao Xiao flipped her wrist, the nine phoenix auspicious flute appearing in her palm, and she placed it to her lips and blew gently.
Woo—!
The melodious flute sound echoed in the hall, carrying a strange rhythm.
However, as the flute sound spread, an invisible force instantly enveloped the entire battlefield.
Nine Phoenix Court Audience Domain!
Shen Ce felt his body sink, as if an invisible mountain were pressing on his shoulders. His movements became a few degrees slower in that instant.
"A Domain?"
A flash of surprise crossed Shen Ce's eyes.
A little girl with four rings actually mastered a Domain?
Although this Domain was still very immature and its impact on him was negligible, this talent was already terrifying enough.
However, the real killing move was still to come.
Xu Xiaoyan lightly waved the Star Staff in her hand, chanting under her breath.
"Stars in the sky, bright and clear, forever brilliant, long-lasting peace."
Star Soul Chain!
Several golden chains shot out from her fingertips like Spirit snakes, winding towards Shen Ce in Binding!
Shen Ce subconsciously tried to dodge, but found that under the influence of Xiao Xiao's Domain, his movements were a moment slower.
In that split second, the golden chains had already wrapped around his limbs!
"What?!"
Shen Ce's pupils shrank suddenly.
He, a dignified Titled Douluo, was actually bound by a control Spirit Ability of a four-ringed little girl?!
He struggled desperately, the Spirit Power within him surging wildly, trying to break the chains.
However, the toughness of the chains far exceeded his imagination. Although cracks appeared under the impact of his Spirit Power, he was actually unable to break free in a short time!
"This is impossible!"
A storm of shock rose in Shen Ce's heart.
Although he was at the bottom tier among Titled Douluo, a Titled Douluo was still a Titled Douluo!
How could a four-ringed control system Spirit Master possibly control him?!
Yet, the facts were right before his eyes.
And this moment was enough for Wang Dong'er and Xi'er.
"Take action!"
Wang Dong'er shouted low, and the light wings on her back burst open!
Beneath her feet, four Spirit Rings suddenly lit up—purple, black, black, black!
One purple and three black!
Tang Ya stood to the side, and seeing the four Spirit Rings beneath Wang Dong'er's feet, she was completely stunned.
One purple and three black?
Four Spirit Rings, and three are ten-thousand-year ones?!
Her mind went blank, her mouth opened, but she couldn't utter a single word.
And Shen Ce was equally shocked.
He had seen many Genius figures, and he had even witnessed those monsters from the Shrek Academy Inner Court, but a girl who didn't look very old actually had three ten-thousand-year rings among her four?
This was simply unheard of!
However, Wang Dong'er didn't give him any time to react.
The fourth Spirit Ring suddenly lit up!
Golden Butterfly Moon Wheel Heavenly Dance!
Wang Dong'er's figure began to spin in mid-air, and the golden light wings on her back rapidly closed as she spun, transforming into a high-speed rotating golden moon wheel that enveloped her entire person!
The moon wheel spun at high speed, emitting a piercing whistling sound. At the same time, countless tiny golden specks of light split from the moon wheel, turning into miniature Golden Splendor Moon Butterflies that swarmed toward Shen Ce in an overwhelming wave!
Wherever those golden butterflies passed, the air seemed to be scorched, leaving behind golden trails with a burning aura, enveloping Shen Ce entirely!
"Fourth Soul Skill, Phantom Reincarnation Slash!"
Xi'er's cool voice rang out at the same time.
Thick black smoke instantly erupted from the pitch-black scythe in her hand. The black smoke was like substance, condensing into a massive black light blade on the scythe.
The edge of the light blade emitted a heart-palpitating dark aura.
Xi'er's figure turned into a dark afterimage, and the scythe in her hand carried a momentum that could tear through everything as it slashed down fiercely toward Shen Ce!
Gold and black, two terrifying attacks, one from the left and one from the right, landed on Shen Ce simultaneously!
Boom—!!!
A massive explosion thundered in the restaurant hall, and the entire floor vibrated violently.
Golden flames and black shadows intertwined, swallowing Shen Ce whole.
Bei Bei happened to rush in from the door at that moment, and seeing this scene, he was completely stunned in place.
His eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, looking at the scene before him with utter disbelief.
Four Four-Ring Soul Ancestors... facing a Titled Douluo, instead of choosing to flee, they chose to go head-to-head?
Bei Bei's mouth twitched twice, and a deep sense of absurdity couldn't help but rise in his heart.
The dust gradually cleared.
Shen Ce's figure reappeared in everyone's sight.
His fine clothes were now in tatters, his body covered in burn and cut marks, a trace of blood hung from the corner of his mouth, and his hair was somewhat disheveled. He looked quite miserable.
His eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.
He... a dignified Titled Douluo, was actually injured by four four-ringed little girls?
Although the injuries weren't severe, they were still injuries! And... if he wanted to recover fully, it would likely take at least half a month, or even a month!
Shen Ce took a deep breath, suppressing the storm in his heart.
He looked at the four girls before him, his gaze becoming incredibly solemn.
These four little girls were far more terrifying than he had imagined.
Their talent was even more monstrous than those so-called monsters in the Shrek Academy Inner Court.
If they were allowed to grow up...
Shen Ce's gaze turned cold.
A grudge had already been formed today. If he let them leave, there would surely be endless trouble in the future!
"Good, very good."
Shen Ce gritted his teeth, his voice carrying a hint of coldness.
"The four of you have successfully enraged me."
The aura on his body suddenly surged!
A pressure even more terrifying than before erupted from within him!
Buzz—!
Behind Shen Ce, a massive phantom appeared. It was a giant python, entirely pitch-black, with its triangular snake head held high and its crimson eyes full of coldness and brutality.
The Titled Douluo's Spirit, the Black Nether Python!
Simultaneously, nine Spirit Rings slowly rose from beneath his feet: two yellow, two purple, and five black!
Wang Dong'er and the other three also felt that terrifying pressure, and their expressions became serious.
Wang Dong'er bit her lip, feeling a bit anxious in her heart.
Big Dad, Second Dad, why haven't you come yet?
She had sent messages to Da Ming and Tai Tan an hour ago. Given the speed of a Limit Douluo and a Super Douluo, they should have arrived by now.
Yet, not a single shadow could be seen.
What Wang Dong'er didn't know was that Da Ming and Tai Tan were currently being blocked by Tang San's Divine Sense and hadn't seen her messages at all.
"Whatever."
Wang Dong'er took a deep breath, suppressing the unease in her heart.
"Stall him first!"
The four of them coordinated tacitly once again.
Xiao Xiao's Domain expanded to its full extent, Slowness effects surging toward Shen Ce wave after wave. Although Xu Xiaoyan's Star Soul Chain could no longer trap Shen Ce like the first time, every interference caused his movements to pause briefly.
Wang Dong'er and Xi'er moved on the left and right, continuously attacking and maneuvering, using the exquisite footwork of the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Step to contend with Shen Ce.
However, a Titled Douluo was, after all, a Titled Douluo.
Even if Shen Ce was among the weakest of Titled Douluo, his Spirit Power reserves, attack power, and defensive capabilities far exceeded the scope of a Four-Ring Soul Ancestor.
As time passed, the Spirit Power of Wang Dong'er's group began to deplete rapidly.
Although their Spirit Ring configurations were Heaven-Defying and their Spirit Power reserves far exceeded Spirit Masters of the same level, they were still too far behind compared to a Titled Douluo.
"Huff... huff..."
Wang Dong'er gasped for air, her forehead covered in sweat, and the light wings on her back had dimmed considerably.
Xi'er was also pale, her scythe swinging slower and slower.
Xiao Xiao and Xu Xiaoyan's Spirit Power was also nearly exhausted; the range of the Domain was constantly shrinking, and the frequency of the Star Soul Chain releases was getting lower and lower.
Seeing their exhausted appearance, the anger in Shen Ce's heart grew even more.
He, a dignified Titled Douluo, had actually been stalled for so long by four four-ringed little girls!
If this were to get out, where would he put his face?
Although his own aura was somewhat unstable due to the consumption, compared to Wang Dong'er's group, his condition was much better.
"It's over."
Shen Ce said coldly, raising his hand to condense a violent burst of Spirit Power, blasting it toward Wang Dong'er and the others!
This strike condensed most of his remaining Spirit Power, with enough power to severely injure four Spirit Ancestors!
Just at this critical moment, a gentle voice rang out.
"Teacher Zang Xin!"
When Wang Dong'er heard this voice, a look of joy appeared on her face. Her teacher was reliable after all!
"If I hadn't come, the four of you would likely have been beaten into pigs' heads."
Zang Xin walked in, looked at Shen Ce, and his lips curled up slightly.
"You, a dignified Titled Douluo, bullying a few four-ringed children—if this gets out, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Looking at Zang Xin, Shen Ce's face instantly turned ugly. The aura released by the Zang Xin before him was quite terrifying, even more so than Xuan Zi's!
"Who are you, Your Excellency?"
Shen Ce asked in a deep voice.
"Who I am isn't important. What's important is that you did something wrong yet chose to make things difficult for a few children. I am quite dissatisfied with that. And as their teacher, I am naturally unwilling to let my students be mistreated."
"So... next, I will seek justice for them."
