The moment the Clear Sky Hammer was released, a deep black glow burst from Tang San's left palm, sweeping forth with majestic pressure!
The Clear Sky Hammer appeared like a miniature version of a smith's forging hammer. However, its obsidian surface pulsed with ancient radiance. Coiled around the cylindrical hammer head were shimmering, rune-like light patterns, as if infused with divine will!
As it manifested, Tang San's right hand sank under the immense weight. Even his soul power rippled chaotically—this hammer, despite its size, was overwhelmingly burdensome. Its sheer aura hinted at its terrifying strength and difficulty of control!
"Clear Sky Hammer!"
The moment it emerged, Flender and Zhao Wuji's pupils constricted sharply. The expressions on their faces turned to astonishment and disbelief.
Since Tang San had entered Shrek Academy, he had only ever summoned the Blue Silver Grass martial spirit. None of them had suspected that he possessed a twin spirit.
And that second martial spirit turned out to be—the Clear Sky Hammer, the pride of the Clear Sky Clan, one of the Three Great Sects of the Heaven Dou Empire!
This revelation confirmed Tang San's identity as a direct bloodline of the Clear Sky Sect!
"It really is twin spirits… but to think the second is the Clear Sky Hammer!"
Standing to the side, Yu Xiaogang, hailed as the greatest theorist among soul masters, had long speculated based on Tang San's innate full soul power that a second spirit was hidden.
Blue Silver Grass, in isolation, could never produce full innate soul power.
But even so, Yu Xiaogang hadn't dared to imagine that Tang San's second spirit would be the divine-grade Clear Sky Hammer!
Yuchen, on the other hand—as a transmigrator—was already aware of this truth. As such, his expression remained composed, unshaken by the unfolding revelation.
"Third Brother, you're actually from the Clear Sky Sect? Why didn't we ever hear about this before?"
"Innate full soul power and twin spirits? That's monstrous talent!"
"Yeah! Though not quite as freakish as Brother Chen, you're still leagues ahead of us!"
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun stood beside Tang San, their eyes fixed on the black hammer radiating destructive might. Though shocked, their surprise wasn't overwhelming.
After all, Shrek Academy wasn't short on elite bloodlines.
Ning Rongrong was the heiress of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, Yuchen was the sole successor of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
So Tang San's identity as a Clear Sky heir merely completed the trinity of Heaven Dou's three great clans.
Of course, in their minds, no one's talent could yet rival Yuchen's—he was an unfathomable peak they could only gaze up at.
"Clear Sky Sect?" Tang San's brows furrowed as he heard them.
Though he knew the sect's name, he had never personally interacted with it. His confusion deepened at the weight the others gave to that legacy.
Regardless, Tang San shook off his hesitation. Gripping the Clear Sky Hammer tightly in his left hand, he surged toward Yuchen!
"The Clear Sky Hammer is the strongest weapon spirit! Brother Chen is holding back his full power—this is our best chance!"
"I have sausages!"
Oscar nodded and promptly activated his first spirit skill—Recovery Big Sausage, conjuring a plump energy-restoring food item with soul power.
"Glug!"
"Let's go!"
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun swallowed Oscar's recovery sausage. As their stamina surged, their bodies lit up with spirit rings. With Tang San leading, they all charged Yuchen together!
"We'll handle them!"
From beside Yuchen, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing also activated their spirits, ready to intercept the trio's assault.
"You two go for Oscar. Leave the rest to me."
Yuchen stepped forward calmly, signaling to them without turning his gaze. As agility-types, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing would be at a disadvantage against Dai Mubai's power-type offense and Tang San's hammer.
"Alright, I trust you, Brother Chen!"
With that, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing redirected toward Oscar.
"Seven Treasures Turn Out!" Ning Rongrong raised her scepter.
"First: Strength!"
"Second: Agility!"
As she chanted, her auxiliary spirit glowed, bestowing enhancements on her allies.
"Not good! They're after Oscar!"
Ma Hongjun's expression twisted in alarm, but Dai Mubai responded coldly:
"It's too late to save him. If we defeat Brother Chen, we'll win regardless!"
The trio surged forward.
"Interesting."
Yuchen's lips curled faintly. His soul power erupted—and behind him, a mountain-sized tortoise began to manifest!
Its shell bore countless ancient snake patterns. A ferocious, mythical aura erupted from its form—the ultimate defense spirit, Xuanwu!
Boom!
Ma Hongjun's flames and Dai Mubai's attacks slammed into the tortoise's shell but failed to penetrate.
**"My attack was completely nullified?!"
"This...this is impossible!"**
Tang San's eyes narrowed. Gritting his teeth, he channeled soul power into the hammer and swung with both hands.
Boom—Boom!
The Clear Sky Hammer smashed down onto the tortoise shell, producing violent waves of spiritual energy that exploded outward!
This was the number-one offensive weapon spirit facing the supreme defensive mythic spirit—a clash of ultimate force and indomitable defense!
But despite the Clear Sky Hammer's famed strength, Tang San's unfamiliarity with wielding it left openings.
The Xuanwu shell stood unmoved.
The backlash split Tang San's palms—the tiger's mouth of his hand torn, dripping with blood!
Yuchen, however, remained untouched.
"Hiss—"
"Even the Clear Sky Hammer... can't break through!"
Flender and Yu Xiaogang's expressions turned grave as they stared at Yuchen's third martial spirit.
They couldn't believe it. The invincible hammer of legend—neutralized.
"A third spirit? And all of them this terrifying?!"
Dai Mubai and the others gasped, their minds shaken. Even Tang San and Ning Rongrong, heirs to legendary bloodlines, were stunned speechless.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's coordination overwhelmed Oscar—he was subdued swiftly.
The outcome was clear: Yuchen's team had won.
Swish!
Without a word, Yuchen extended his hand. A gentle green radiance flowed from his palm, wrapping Tang San's injured hands.
Wonderful Hand Rejuvenation!
The healing light sealed the wounds visibly—restoring Tang San's tiger's mouth in moments!
And in that quiet aftermath, as the Clear Sky Hammer faded and spirits retracted...
Boom!
A fissure tore open in the serene sky above—an ominous crack marking the arrival of something far greater.
