Chapter 197: The first match, against the
New Kamikaze Academy of Thunder Academy, was against Longkui Academy. As the referee announced the start of the match, Huo Wu and Feng Xiaotian were the first to strike.
Feng Xiaotian, with his astonishing wind control technique, whipped up a fierce gust of wind, a sharp gust that whistled through the air, its sound mingling with the heart-wrenching howls of wolves and ghosts. With
Feng Xiaotian's soul power now at level 48, the gust of wind he unleashed was naturally incredibly powerful. The members of Longkui Academy couldn't even open their eyes under the force of the gust, forcing them to raise their hands to shield themselves from Feng Xiaotian's level 8 gale.
"Wushuang, Huoyun, I leave it to you."
"Hehe, leave it to me, Flame Jet!"
Huo Wushuang raised his lips, gathering soul power in his hands before his chest, transforming it into a massive fireball. Then, he unleashed a punch. Huoyun, standing beside him, followed suit, soul power blasting out of his body as the two punched.
The wind fanned the flames. The two men's fire-attributed spirit powers, fueled by a force eight gale, transformed into a sea of blazing flames, bearing down on Longkui Academy like a surging wave.
"What?"
"Run!"
"We surrender..."
Before they could utter the word "surrender," the sea of inferno engulfed the Longkui Academy members. Ultimately, to save their lives and avoid being incinerated, they leaped from the fighting arena, conceding defeat and ending the match.
And just like that, in just half a minute, the New Shinfeng Academy had won their first match.
With only three men, they defeated Longkui Academy, a team boasting three Soul Masters. It was clear that the New Shinfeng Academy was truly formidable.
Dai Weis dared to say that the New Shinfeng Academy's overall combat power might be far greater than that of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
After the match, Huo Wu and Feng Xiaotian smiled at Dai Weis, as if to say, "Isn't it surprising? Isn't it exciting?"
Dai Weis smiled back. Needless to say, he really wanted to spar with this New Shinfeng Academy team.
After the New Divine Wind competition concluded, the remaining matches were uninteresting, so Dai Weis simply returned to the hotel to practice alone, preparing for the next battle.
Two days passed in a flash, and Dai Weis's spirit power improved by another point.
During these two days, the first round of the finals concluded flawlessly. None of the three seeded teams participated, leaving only thirty academy teams to compete.
After the first round, fifteen academies were eliminated, leaving Spirit City in disgrace, each returning to their own homes.
Elimination permits were granted, though, according to previous rules, eliminated academies could remain to watch the upcoming matches and learn from the strongest, without any compulsion.
However, this year's Spirit Master Competition was different from previous years. All eliminated academies, including students and teachers, were forcibly expelled from Spirit City.
This made many realize that something major was about to happen in Spirit City. To prevent the conflict between the elites from spreading to others, the teachers and students of the advanced Spirit Master academies immediately left Spirit City.
Today, the second round of the finals officially began. The top-ranked academies of the Heaven Dou and Star Luo empires received a bye, leaving sixteen academies, including the top three seeded teams, to compete.
This meant Star Luo Royal Academy's first match of the second round was imminent.
Dai Weis and Zhu Zhuqing were waiting for the referee's draw, preparing for their first match.
While Zhu Zhuqing was nervous, Dai Weis was amused. With his current strength, he could easily defeat even the Spirit Hall team alone, let alone any other academy.
Looking at the nervous Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Weis waved his hand. With a cry of "Ah," Zhu Zhuqing was swept into his embrace. Her soft, jade-like body sank into Dai Weis's lap, allowing his large hands to caress her slender waist.
Zhu Zhuqing blushed and said coquettishly, "You scared me, Brother Weis! You're so mean."
"Haha, do you like me playing tricks on you?"
"Hehe, I do." Zhu Zhuqing reached out her arms and wrapped them around Dai Weis's, smiling, "I like everything about Brother Weis, because Zhuqing is your wife."
"How sweet." Ruffling the kitten's hair, Dai Weis smiled, "Zhuqing, don't be nervous. I'm here. The final championship will definitely be ours!"
"I'm not nervous. I'm just thinking we should conserve our strength as much as possible." Zhu Zhuqing pondered, "I think Brother Weis, you shouldn't play this round. You should stay hidden as our trump card. This round, I and my sister will be enough."
"Hmm... makes sense." Dai Weis nodded slightly. Aside from the Spirit Hall team, the other academies didn't have any Soul Kings. With Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing's strength, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat them. It would be better
to train the newcomers. Having made up his mind, Dai Weis looked at Bai Chenxiang and the others nearby. Just then, the draw was over, and the referee began to announce the results.
"Second round of the finals, match one: Botanical Academy vs. Black Tiger Academy!"
"Match two: Tianshui Academy vs. Flame Demon Academy!"
"Match three: Star Luo Royal Academy vs. Thunder Academy!"
"…"
"It's Thunder Academy!"
Dai Weis exclaimed, looking in the direction of Thunder Academy. Thunder Academy's Yu Tianxin was a level 43 offensive-type Battle Soul Master. With his Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon spirit, his strength was no less than Feng Xiaotian's.
While he was a bit surprised to be facing a Thunder Academy opponent, Dai Weis wasn't the least bit flustered. They were just Soul Masters, while his wife was a Soul Emperor.
After a moment of reflection, Dai Weis decided to conceal his strength in this match, leaving full command to Zhu Zhuyun.
The seven players who were leaving the stage were: Zhu Zhuyun, Zhu Zhuqing, Dong Hui, Ning Tianyu, Bai Chenxiang, Yang Zhen, and Niu Tian.
Since they were already here, they should at least be given a chance to play.
The first two matches concluded quickly, and before the third began, Dai Weis encouraged, "Zhuyun, Zhuqing, keep going! Zhuyun, command is now yours. Don't embarrass Star Luo Royal Academy.
If you lose, prepare to be out of bed for a week, and I'll definitely reward you handsomely!"
Zhu Zhuyun blushed and glared at Dai Weis angrily. Then, with a slight nod, she led Zhu Zhuqing and the others onto the fighting stage.
"I declare: The third match of the second round of the finals officially begins! You have one minute to activate your spirits!"
"Hah!"
Yu Tianxin roared, a thunderous dragon roar emanating from the depths of his throat. The shadow of a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon appeared behind him, the dragon's roar terrifying.
"Yu Tianxin, a level 43 Power Attack-type Battle Soul Sect, please advise."
As Yu Tianxin unleashed his spirit, Zhu Zhuyun and the others followed suit, transforming the two sisters into two adorable kittens, one large and one small.
However, what shocked Yu Tianxin and everyone else more than Zhu Zhuyun's appearance was the sight of six spirit rings descending from her head. This beautiful girl was actually a Spirit Emperor!
Enjoying the surprised glances of those around her, Zhu Zhuyun chuckled and said, "Zhu Zhuyun, a Level 62 Agility Attack-type Battle Spirit Emperor. Please teach me!"
