From Su Ming's tone, he could sense that Su Ming was mocking him, but he couldn't do anything about it since he really hadn't anticipated this outcome.
Seeing this, Su Ming shook his head. He knew that Tang San had no better hidden weapon than the hidden arrow right now; after all, the conditions didn't allow for anything more. Even though he could forge, he had no materials!
Then, Su Ming coldly said, "Since you have no moves left, get ready to take my attack. I haven't even struck yet!"
"I told you, you have touched my bottom line this time. I will give you a good beating!"
Tang San's expression was heavy. Although Su Ming was stronger than him now, he didn't believe Su Ming could hurt him. After all, Su Ming's soul skills were primarily focused on control and defense, not attack!
However, the outcome was often unexpected!
"Take this! Let me show you my newly created soul skill!"
"What!!"
Tang San was taken aback. Is there really someone who can create soul skills so recklessly?
Su Ming clasped his hands together and shouted, "Wood Escape: Insertion Technique!"
Suddenly, many wooden spikes erupted from the wooden wall, shooting toward Tang San!
"Tang San, I want to see if you can remain completely unscathed. This attack is somewhat similar to your earlier one, except these are wooden spikes. Don't underestimate them; they're very sharp!"
Beside them, Xiao Wu was shocked. Her brother Su Ming had unleashed a new Wood Escape technique, which bore some resemblance to Tang San's earlier attack. While Tang San's was a "Rain of Hidden Weapons," Su Ming's was a "Rain of Wooden Spikes!"
It was uncertain if this was a spur-of-the-moment creation by Su Ming or if this technique was part of the Wood Escape all along!
Regardless, her brother Su Ming was impressive. This time, Tang San was in for a beating, and he deserved it; after all, who told him to provoke her brother?
However, seeing her brother Su Ming angry made her somewhat happy. Especially when she heard the words "You have touched my bottom line," her heart raced uncontrollably.
Tang San hurriedly activated his Purple Extreme Demon Eye and Ghost Shadow Mysterious Steps. He definitely didn't want to be pierced by those wooden spikes; with his physical body, he would surely be impaled, as he had no defensive soul skills!
However, there were simply too many wooden spikes launched by Su Ming. Tang San couldn't evade them all and could only dodge as best as he could, gradually accumulating various wounds from the wooden spikes!
Moreover, this Insertion Technique consumed nearly half of Su Ming's soul power, so the number of wooden spikes was indeed considerable!
Then, seizing the opportunity, Su Ming executed the Wood Escape: Four Pillars Prison beneath Tang San's feet!
Suddenly, four wooden walls grew rapidly around Tang San, completely enclosing him within!
Just as Tang San was about to surrender, Su Ming wouldn't give him that chance!
In the past, their battles had been more like sparring, but ever since Tang San got his hidden weapons, he seemed to think too highly of himself, believing he could bully Su Ming. He even knew that Xiao Wu was now his sister, yet still wanted to recognize her as his sister!
If he and Xiao Wu were just siblings, it wouldn't matter, but anyone with eyes could see their close relationship was a bit more than mere "brother and sister," so Tang San was just asking for a beating!
Besides, it wasn't like he didn't know that Tang San recognizing Xiao Wu as his sister likely had ulterior motives. Since he had already taken Xiao Wu for himself, he wouldn't allow Tang San to meddle anymore!
Then, with a firm grip of his right hand, the Four Pillars Prison began to contract inward rapidly, binding Tang San until only his head was exposed!
It wasn't that Su Ming didn't want to directly use the Silent Binding Technique to restrain Tang San; it was mainly because he couldn't catch him, so he could only trap Tang San first and then adapt!
After binding Tang San, Su Ming still hadn't vented his anger; he gradually increased the pressure, tightening the bindings around Tang San!
Until he felt it was about time, and saw Tang San's face turning a bit blue, he finally loosened his grip!
"Cough cough cough!"
Once released, Tang San greedily gasped for fresh air. He could clearly feel that Su Ming was serious just now!
Before, when Su Ming used the Four Pillars Prison, he had merely confined him, but now he had transformed it into a binding that nearly suffocated him, which was truly a bit frightening!
As far as he knew, ordinary soul masters couldn't achieve such a transformation unless they had an exceptionally strong control over their soul power and skills, as his teacher had said!
Seeing that Tang San had almost recovered, Su Ming coldly said, "Tang San, I hope this is the first and last time!"
"You should know what kind of person I am after a year of interaction. I don't care much about other matters, only about myself and the people I care about. Besides, I haven't revealed your secret, so I consider my character to be decent. I hope you won't touch my bottom line again!"
"As long as you don't cross my line, we'll still be friends. You have quite a talent, and I really don't want to be your enemy, I mean it!"
After saying this, Su Ming took Xiao Wu's hand and left, leaning slightly against her. He wasn't trying to take advantage; he had just used too much soul power in that battle and felt a bit weak.
Su Ming leaned against Xiao Wu, who only blushed slightly and didn't feel anything was wrong. In fact, she thought Su Ming looked very manly during that moment, incredibly handsome!
Meanwhile, Tang San remained alone in the back mountain, lost in thought.
He understood Su Ming's words clearly and knew that in the past year, Su Ming had indeed never wronged him. Whether in their previous battles or this one, he was the one who had instigated them.
Honestly, he didn't know why he had done this. Maybe he felt that since Su Ming only had a level seven innate soul power while he had level ten innate soul power and a twin martial soul, he should be able to defeat Su Ming!
But in reality, he had lost every time he battled Su Ming!
This time, he also knew that Su Ming and Xiao Wu's relationship was special, but he didn't understand why it made him feel uncomfortable. Additionally, after a year, he had forged quite a few hidden weapons, and his confidence had swelled somewhat!
Who was he? In his previous life, he was from the Tang Sect. With hidden weapons in hand, he thought defeating Su Ming should be incredibly easy, but he was mistaken!
This matter was indeed his fault, so he didn't think Su Ming had done anything wrong in their earlier confrontation, as they had agreed on the battle beforehand.
So, after some self-soothing in the back mountain, Tang San finally managed to calm the restlessness in his heart!
