In the afternoon, it was time for the match between Shrek Team and Tianshui Academy.
Because Shrek had failed to appear in two consecutive matches, their popularity was very low. On the contrary, the all-female Tianshui Academy caused an eruption of cheers the moment they entered.
After all, Tianshui Academy only accepted female students, and after awakening their martial souls, the girls' appearances were never bad. It could be said to be a holy land longed for by male soul masters across the continent.
Amid waves of cheers, Shui Bing'er led the Tianshui Team as they slowly stepped onto the arena.
At this moment, the Shrek Seven Monsters had not yet come onstage. It looked like they were planning to give the audience a surprise—but even if they did not appear, the spectators would not find it surprising.
Because Shrek Academy had already broken a record in the history of the Soul Master Tournament: two consecutive forfeits.
"Xuewu, are you ready?"
Shui Bing'er turned her head to look at Xuewu, who stood beside her, tall and graceful. Her expression was serious; she knew very well that the Shrek Seven Monsters were extremely strong.
Tianshui Team only had three Soul Elders, so trying to win was practically impossible—unless Shrek forfeited once again.
But that was obviously impossible.
Therefore, in order to catch them off guard, Shui Bing'er planned to use her martial soul fusion skill with Xuewu right from the start, directly blasting Shrek Team with a big move.
If the first strike failed or the effect was too poor, they would immediately forfeit. After all, they had already seen the Shrek Seven Monsters' personalities in previous matches.
Lustful, sleazy, disgusting, arrogant.
Especially that one-eyed fat man—his martial soul was a bald-feathered fire chicken. In earlier competitions, he had intentionally or unintentionally violated the privacy of female students.
Once or twice might be accidental, but doing it every time could only mean one thing—that one-eyed fat man was doing it on purpose. With those mung-bean-sized eyes, he did not look like anything good.
"Mm. When the time comes, we'll directly release the martial soul fusion skill."
Xuewu's face was cold, showing no sign of panic, but there was a trace of heaviness in her eyes. They could only place their hopes on the fusion skill.
A Level-60 Soul Emperor posed too great a threat, and on Tianshui Academy's side, only she and Shui Bing'er's martial soul fusion skill could rival a Soul Emperor.
If they could catch Shrek off guard, even if they could not fantasize about instantly defeating the leader Tang San, as long as they could temporarily injure the others, they might still have a chance.
"When the time comes, Yue'er will be responsible for cover. You all must also pay attention to your safety—those people's hands aren't clean."
As if thinking of Ma Hongjun, the one-eyed fat man, Shui Bing'er said this to her younger sister Shui Yue'er.
She was clearly worried about that fat pig's hands being dishonest, after all, her teammates were all beautiful girls.
She did not want one-eyed fat pig Ma Hongjun's salty pig hands touching them.
"Don't worry, Sister. We won't get entangled with that fatty. If things get tricky, your little sister will be the first to run."
Shui Yue'er said with a laugh, clearly trying not to put too much pressure on her sister.
"Mm. I don't care about maintaining a winning streak. As long as you're all safe, that's enough. If things go bad, surrender immediately."
Tianshui Academy viewed this quite openly. The outcome of a single match would not affect their academy's standing.
As long as they could enter the promotion stage and participate in the later finals, they would have completed Tianshui Academy's mission.
As for the championship—this year's contestants were even more outrageous than before. There was even a Soul Sage in Tiandou Team One. Tianshui Academy did not even dare to dream of the championship.
After waiting for a while, the Shrek Seven Monsters finally arrived late, their expressions calm, their gazes contemptuous as they looked at Tianshui Academy.
"Hey, how about you just surrender now? Otherwise, Fatty here will give you a good, loving lesson."
Ma Hongjun blinked his one remaining eye, leering lasciviously at the Tianshui Team—his eyes practically glued to them.
Feeling that their side was guaranteed to win, he naturally became a bit carried away, and his filthy mouth once again could not be controlled.
The Tianshui Team members showed displeasure upon hearing Ma Hongjun's humiliating words. Shui Yue'er, especially unwilling to back down, immediately looked at Ma Hongjun with disdain and mocked him:
"You look like a pig, how do you even have the face to shout here? Anyone who didn't know better would think some family's pig went crazy and ran out."
"Your team being strong has nothing to do with you. You mung-bean-eyed thing—more pig than a pig—lying-down-and-winning mutt, ptui."
Her words instantly made the surrounding audience burst into laughter, their gazes turning toward Ma Hongjun as a single term surfaced in their minds:
Pig King!
Among the crowd, there were even troublemakers who directly shouted it out.
"Pig King isn't a lying-down-and-winning dog—he's a lying-down-and-winning pig!"
At once, another wave of laughter erupted.
Even Tiandou Team One, who were watching the show from the stands, could not stop laughing.
"Shui Yue'er really knows how to curse."
Dugu Yan looked at Shui Yue'er on the stage with great interest, instantly feeling that she was a talent who absolutely had to be recruited into Dugu Yan's little squad.
"I just wonder if they can actually win."
Ning Rongrong was rather concerned about how Tianshui Academy could possibly fight the Shrek Seven Monsters, considering that Tang San was a Soul Emperor and there were three Soul Kings.
"No need to worry. I just sensed through the Green-Linked Silver Ring Snake that the Shrek Seven Monsters look imposing, but in reality, they're all injured. That fat pig—whether he can even beat a Soul Elder right now is uncertain."
Dugu Yan had already used her martial soul's keen perception to probe and discover that the Shrek Seven Monsters were not in good condition, which was why she was not worried about Tianshui Academy.
"Oh right, I remember the Pope wanted us to recruit the Four Element Academies. Has the Tianshui Academy headmaster agreed?"
The quiet Zhu Zhuqing asked curiously. When the Soul Master Tournament began, Dugu Bo had already approached the heads of the Four Element Academies, asking them to submit to the Poison Douluo.
"They've already agreed. Except for Thunder Academy, which is backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, the other three Element Academies have all agreed to follow my grandfather."
Dugu Yan said.
The four academies were all shrewd. Otherwise, later on, they would not have merged the four academies together. Tianshui, Blazing Fire, and Divine Wind Academies had already shown signs of wavering.
Thunder Academy had the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect behind it and directly refused the Poison Douluo's invitation. After all, the Poison Douluo was publicly acknowledged as the weakest Titled Douluo, and they themselves had a Titled Douluo backing them.
But Dugu Bo did not care. He had never intended to bring Thunder Academy in anyway. In the end, the plan was to merge the three Element Academies with Tiandou Royal Academy, with Dugu Bo serving as the dean.
They would establish a new Soul Master Academy, preparing that once the Spirit Hall unified the continent, this newly formed academy would serve as a reserve institution for Spirit Hall's Tiandou Advanced Academy.
So now it seemed that Tianshui, Blazing Fire, and Divine Wind Academies were already on their side. However, because they joined too late, they did not receive assistance from the Pope, and their overall strength was still somewhat weak.
Back on the stage, Ma Hongjun listened to the crowd's wild heckling. His face turned red with rage, making him look even more like a pig.
But before the match started, Ma Hongjun could only forcibly suppress his anger, waiting for the referee to announce the start.
He intended to thoroughly teach this Shui Yue'er a lesson.
To shut her mouth—beating her until Ma Hongjun himself was satisfied, and to see whether she would still be so sharp-tongued after his "lesson."
Before long, the time arrived. The referee stepped between the two teams.
"Both sides ready—the soul duel begins!"
