"Tch, you? I bet you're the one who's ruined some girl's life again, and people are cursing you behind your back, aren't they?" Yu Feng leaned against the crystal window, looking quite relaxed
. "Birdman, you talk like you're some kind of gentleman? Last time, who was it that spied on someone changing clothes at the Moon Pavilion and got caught?" Oslo mocked.
Upon hearing this, Yu Feng immediately flew into a rage and said, "You're talking nonsense! Leopard, I challenge you to a duel!"
"Alright, you two, quiet down. The competition starts this afternoon, and you don't even know how to conserve your energy." Yu Tianheng interrupted their conversation.
Yu Feng smiled and said, "Captain, do we need to conserve our energy? What teams in this small city of Soto are worth our attention?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng frowned. "Yu Feng, be careful, I'm no longer the captain. Please call me vice-captain."
"Yes, yes, yes, Captain, you're right." Yu Feng replied with a smile.
In the past two years, Dugu Yan's soul power had advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching level forty-nine, a full ten levels higher than Yu Tianheng.
Yu Tianheng had resigned from his captaincy long ago. However, the members of Huang Dou still maintained a good relationship and addressed him as 'captain.'
Yet, Yu Tianheng's pride, coupled with his upbringing instilled in him a strong sense of hierarchy, made him unwilling to accept this title.
For the first few months, Yu Tianheng frequently challenged Dugu Yan, attempting to rightfully reclaim his captaincy.
However, as time passed, Yu Tianheng discovered that his soul power level was increasingly inferior to Dugu Yan's. She seemed to be on drugs, impossible for him to catch up with.
Gradually, Yu Tianheng gave up.
He even felt a sense of inferiority when facing Dugu Yan, no longer daring to pursue her.
Just then, the door to the room opened, and two people entered.
"Teacher, Captain,"
the team members all performed the same action, standing up and respectfully bowing to the two.
Everyone held Qin Ming in high esteem, after all, he was the second youngest Soul Emperor in the history of the Spirit Hall.
And Dugu Yan
, in the past two years, had repeatedly redefined everyone's understanding of genius.
Being with her, they felt an invisible pressure. Especially when looking directly into her green eyes, they felt an eerie charm.
"You've met your match this time,"
Qin Ming said, walking to the sofa and sitting down. A flash of light appeared in his hand, and he spread a piece of cloth on the table.
Oslo leaned closer and exclaimed in surprise, "Eh! White Tiger Martial Soul, Netherworld Cat? Could they be members of the Star Luo Dai and Zhu families? Their Martial Soul Fusion Techniques are indeed troublesome."
"And that's not all,"
Yu Feng said, pointing to a name, "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, although it only has two rings, it can already provide a 30% amplification effect."
At this moment, Oslo continued reading and chuckled.
"Blue Silver Grass? Hmm, reaching level 30 is indeed not easy, hahaha."
Qin Ming snorted coldly. "Hmph, Osro, if you go on stage with that kind of mentality, I can guarantee you'll suffer a huge setback immediately."
Hearing this, Osro immediately straightened his body, head held high, and said, "Reporting, teacher, I have a plan to defeat the Shrek team without breaking a sweat!"
Qin Ming leaned back on the sofa, glanced at him, and said teasingly, "Oh, then tell me."
Osro smiled obsequiously, "Since Shrek has achieved a twenty-seven-game winning streak, they must have something special about them. However, they have a very obvious weakness: they have two support Soul Masters."
Qin Ming nodded, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes as he looked at Osro.
The Shrek team's past achievements were indeed impressive, but Qin Ming knew that they mostly won through individual strength.
For example, this contestant called Netherworld Cat, in the match against the Berserker team, faced three berserk Soul Masters alone. She actually defeated the enemy in just one minute, which was simply unbelievable.
However, Shrek Academy's team composition was indeed somewhat lacking.
First, they lacked a defensive-type Soul Master.
Second, Soul Masters with food-type Martial Souls had an advantage in supplying supplies during long marches, not in arena battles.
"This little Ao, who usually only knows how to joke around, actually has such insights?" Qin Ming thought to himself.
At this moment, a glint flashed in Oslo's eyes, and he continued, "Let's abandon Lingling and take out the two support players on the other side immediately. That way, it'll be five against four, giving us the advantage!"
His words were followed by a brief silence in the room.
"Bang!"
Dugu Yan walked to the door and kicked it.
Then, with another "bang," the door slammed shut.
"Shimo, Shimo, hold him down!"
"Yufeng, block the windows, don't let Oslo escape!"
"Awooo~"
"Awooo~"
"Awooo~"
A series of pig-like screams echoed from inside the room.
In the center of the Soto Grand Arena, the main arena.
"Pfft~!"
Ning Rongrong looked at a black-clad youth from the opposing team and couldn't help but laugh.
At this moment, the rest of the Shrek Academy members also noticed the bruised and swollen Oslo.
Oslo looked rather disheveled, his face swollen high, his nose crooked to one side, and covered in a dark bruise. His eyes were swollen shut, almost completely obscuring the pupils, with only a faint glimmer of light shining through.
"Hahaha! Another pig-headed guy on the other side?" Ma Hongjun clutched his stomach, laughing loudly.
"Alright, everyone, get serious. This might be a trick by the other side, deliberately trying to make us underestimate them," Zhu Zhuqing said in a deep voice.
However, her slightly pursed lips and arched eyebrows suggested she was holding back a lot of pain.
As soon as Zhu Zhuqing finished speaking, the Shrek team quickly regained their composure.
Over the past month, everyone had witnessed Zhu Zhuqing's strength.
Especially her victory over Dai Mubai, whose spirit power was at level 35, in an internal battle, a three-level leap, which made her a potential contender for the top spot at Shrek Academy.
With the host's command, both teams unleashed their spirit powers.
In the Shrek Academy team, Dai Mubai stood at the front, acting as a meat shield.
Behind him, Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, and Ma Hongjun stood in a line, protecting the two support-type spirit masters at the back.
The Royal Fighting Team's formation was somewhat strange, with five Soul Masters standing in a row, Ye Lingling at the back. However, she was far from the team, almost at the edge of the fighting arena.
"What are they up to?" Ma Hongjun scratched his head, puzzled.
At this moment, Tang San narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "They probably want to take advantage of their Soul Power level to take us all down in one charge. Zhu Zhuqing, you go and deal with their support Soul Masters first."
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Tang San and then nodded.
Her intuition told her that the other side might have some kind of conspiracy, but she couldn't immediately figure out what the problem was.
"The match begins!"
As soon as the host finished speaking, Zhu Zhuqing's first Soul Ring lit up, and she had already overtaken Dai Mubai.
"Holy crap! Birdwoman, she's faster than you!" Oslo exclaimed in surprise as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing's figure.
"Don't yell, I saw it!" Yu Feng soared into the air and quickly attacked the rear of Shrek Academy.
