By the time the individual matches reached this point, Shrek Academy had already seized an overwhelming advantage.
One could even say that they had laid a solid foundation for the upcoming two-two-three battle format.
After all, so many members of the Sun Moon Team were already dead—when it came to the later matches, they simply had no one left worth sending out!
The Sun Moon Team's lead instructor narrowed his eyes, his expression turning grim to the extreme. He called over Meng Hongchen, who had been tending to Xiao Hongchen.
"Xiao Meng, the next match is yours. We'll be relying on you. For the academy's honor—go all out," the instructor said in a deep voice.
A strange glint flashed through Meng Hongchen's eyes as she gave a slight nod.
"Don't worry, Teacher. I may not be able to decide the entire battle, but I will definitely turn the tide. I won't let Shrek Academy enjoy this too much."
"Mm… I'm counting on you."The instructor actually bowed slightly toward Meng Hongchen.
Off to the side, Xiao Hongchen curled his lips, feeling utterly frustrated.
In his view, he should have been the one to turn the situation around.
Although his sister's abilities were special and could indeed produce unexpected effects, they were also heavily restricted under certain conditions.
"Damn it. If it were me, Huo Yuhao would definitely lose!"
After such a long match, Xiao Hongchen was convinced that Huo Yuhao's soul power had to be severely depleted.
If he were the one going up next, he was certain he could wash away this humiliation!
On the competition platform, Huo Yuhao and Mi Jia had each retreated to opposite edges.
Tian Sha Douluo's rigid face showed no expression at all. He waved his hand and shouted loudly:
"Begin!"
At this point in the competition, two people had already died due to his misjudgment. The fact that Tian Sha Douluo hadn't mentally collapsed yet was impressive enough.
Thankfully, he was a Titled Douluo.
Had he merely been a Soul Douluo, he might have been escorted straight to the Sun Moon Empire today as "compensation."
The moment the match began, a rapid series of metallic clanking sounds rang out as numerous soul tools attached themselves to Mi Jia's body.
Unlike the other Sun Moon Team members before him, Mi Jia's soul tools lacked excessive cannon barrels. Instead, most of them were concentrated on his legs and back.
Clearly visible were two blue metallic long boots that clasped around his calves and feet. On his back were two metal tubes.
Each tube was only about three inches long, but their diameter exceeded six inches.
The connections to his back were spherical, allowing the tubes to freely change direction.
Aside from these, four metal wing-like plates extended from each side beneath his ribs. They were clearly not flight-type soul tools, appearing instead to be used for balance and directional adjustment.
Additionally, each of Mi Jia's arms bore a thick cannon barrel, and on his chest sat a massive spherical device resembling a charge-accumulating soul tool.
That was his entire loadout.
Against Huo Yuhao, he intended to unleash his full power from the very start!
Light flared from his boots. With a single sliding step, Mi Jia instantly shifted several meters sideways, moving at astonishing speed. Though he couldn't match Chen An—the former Flashbird Martial Soul user—his speed was not far behind.
At the same time, Mi Jia's back-mounted propulsion soul tools released faint bursts of light—not intense, but enough to sharply increase his speed.
The wing plates under his ribs adjusted automatically, stabilizing his body during the lateral glide.
Mi Jia raised his hand, and the cannon on his right arm fired toward Huo Yuhao!
An orange-red, oval-shaped energy sphere shot through the air at high speed, flying in an irregular trajectory straight at Huo Yuhao.
What was even more bizarre was that the orb produced no sound at all—no whistling, no shriek.
Huo Yuhao recognized it instantly.
It was a trigger-based timed soul-guidance cannon developed by the Sun Moon Empire.
In simple terms, once it made contact, it would detonate—essentially a high-tech landmine.
For close-combat soul masters, it was a devastating weapon.
However, Huo Yuhao merely sneered.
His soul bone manifested. His hand transformed into a dragon claw as he reached out through the void, accurately grasping the orange-red energy sphere!
In the next instant, the sphere froze eerily in midair, its glow growing brighter and brighter.
Then—
It exploded.
A terrifying blast formed an orange-red explosion over a meter and a half in diameter on the competition platform. The extreme heat and shockwave distorted the air within a three-meter radius.
Seeing Huo Yuhao take the explosion head-on, Mi Jia's face lit up with excitement.
"Huo Yuhao—must be seriously injured now!"
That level of power was more than enough to instantly kill a Soul King!
Unfortunately for him, Huo Yuhao's strength had long surpassed that level.
As the smoke from the explosion dispersed, Huo Yuhao's figure reappeared.
Not only was he completely uninjured—
Even his clothes were untouched.
"T-This… how is this possible?!"Mi Jia's face turned pale. He almost cursed out loud.
What the hell is this thing?
Is this guy even human?!
Even Ma Rulong, a Soul Emperor, would've been severely injured if he took that head-on!
But Mi Jia quickly forced himself to calm down.
So what if the first shot failed?
Could he really block the second one too?
The cannon on his other arm flared.
As he attacked, Mi Jia continued moving at high speed, maintaining the maximum possible distance from Huo Yuhao.
Yet once again—
Huo Yuhao neither dodged nor retreated!
A cold smile crept onto Mi Jia's face.
"I refuse to believe you're really this invincible!"
"Brothers, I, Mi Jia, will avenge you!"
A violent roar echoed across the platform as another orange-red explosion burst forth, completely engulfing Huo Yuhao.
But just moments later—
Huo Yuhao's figure emerged once again.
Still unscathed.
Still untouchable.
Pure, overwhelming dominance.
"Good!" Even Elder Xuan couldn't help but shout, his eyes filled with unmistakable admiration.
This kind of absolute, crushing supremacy—
It was exhilarating.
Worthy of the title strongest genius!
The battle on the platform continued. Watching Huo Yuhao block two consecutive attacks with ease, Mi Jia gradually descended into madness.
He directly activated the most powerful soul tool on his chest!
He intended to pour all of his soul power into it and unleash his strongest strike!
However, just as the shell fired from the chest-mounted cannon—
Huo Yuhao's attack arrived instantly!
Mi Jia truly lived up to his reputation as an elite of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. Sensing danger, a soul-guidance barrier lit up around his body.
As a fifth-level soul engineer, he naturally deployed a fifth-level soul-guidance shield.
This kind of defense could withstand any attack below the Soul Emperor level!
Yet in front of Huo Yuhao—
It didn't last even a second.
In the next instant, Huo Yuhao's attack struck Mi Jia squarely in the chest, instantly destroying the core of the soul tool there.
The shell that had just been fired jammed brutally into his own chest!
Mi Jia's vision went black as his will completely collapsed.
"…It's over."
