Yu Tianheng

It was another day of spirit battles. The Shrek group arrived at the Great Soul Arena. Even after all these days, Zhao Zilong had not participated in team spirit battles, yet Shrek Battle Team had still ended most of its team battles in victory.

Zhao Zilong's absence instead gave Zhu Zhuqing the chance to participate in team spirit battles. With Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, they had a reliable safeguard in team battles. Even when facing powerful opponents, the Hell White Tiger's fusion could defeat them.

The seven-person team lineup had basically stabilized. Ma Hongjun, on the other hand, participated in team spirit battles less often. He was only sent out when they were certain their opponents did not have much Soul Power.

However, today, Shrek Battle Team encountered Berserk Team once again.

The last time Tang San had led Shrek Battle Team against them, Berserk Team had won in the end, but they had still suffered terribly and needed a full month to recover from their injuries.

Now that they had encountered Shrek Battle Team again, both sides were filled with hostility.

Shrek also knew this. After Master Yu Xiaogang learned that their opponent was Berserk Team, his expression became extremely grave. At the same time, he very much wanted to win this spirit battle.

Dai Mubai looked at him and asked, "Master, are you sure Zi Long doesn't need to fight? If he goes on, our chances of winning will be much greater. Didn't you say he was our trump card? Wouldn't this be the perfect time to let him fight?"

Meng Yiran also said, "Yes, Master! They already know Tang San's hidden weapon techniques. They'll definitely be on guard, so Tang San's hidden weapons will probably find it hard to produce any unexpected results again. Besides, after the last spirit battle against Berserk Team, they'll definitely take us seriously."

Tang San's face darkened as he listened. After all, he had been the one directing them last time, yet they had still lost. Tang San desperately wanted to wash away the humiliation of that defeat, but he also truly did not want Zhao Zilong to join the battle. If Zhao Zilong fought and they won, it would feel as if Tang San had merely ridden on Zhao Zilong's coattails, something the proud Tang San found hard to accept.

"No. This time is different from last time. We won't need to rely on Xiao San's hidden weapons for a sneak attack. Even in a direct confrontation, you have over a fifty percent chance of winning."

Yu Xiaogang immediately refused. He knew that if Zhao Zilong came, everyone in Shrek would surely listen to Zhao Zilong. Yu Xiaogang was deliberately keeping Zhao Zilong out of sight so Tang San could establish his authority within Shrek Battle Team and make all the members recognize Tang San's tactical command. Then, even when Zhao Zilong returned, Tang San would still remain the core of the entire team.

Yu Xiaogang continued, "This time, Mubai, as a level thirty-eight Soul Elder, can directly hold back Crazy Rhino. Furthermore, Mubai and Zhuqing's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the Hell White Tiger, is powerful enough to rival a high-level Soul Ancestor. Therefore, as long as the tactics are proper, we will certainly be able to defeat Berserk Team."

Dai Mubai nodded in agreement upon hearing that. The Hell White Tiger he shared with Zhu Zhuqing was one of their greatest trump cards, possessing tremendous power. Dai Mubai believed that once Zhu Zhuqing reached the Soul Elder rank, their Martial Soul Fusion Skill could even contend against a Soul King.

Seeing that Dai Mubai and the others agreed, Yu Xiaogang continued, "However, even with Mubai on the field, Berserk Team's Soul Power is still higher than ours. Therefore, we still need proper tactical arrangements. Xiao San, you will arrange the tactics."

"Yes, Teacher." Tang San nodded.

A trace of dissatisfaction flashed through Meng Yiran's eyes. Yu Xiaogang's favoritism toward Tang San was far too obvious. The rest of Shrek Battle Team had actually noticed it as well, but none of them found it appropriate to say anything. After all, Tang San's tactical arrangements were indeed correct. Compared to Zhao Zilong's simple and forceful approach, Tang San's strategies required much closer coordination from them to carry out.

Soon, the team battle began: Shrek Battle Team versus Berserk Team.

"We meet again, Shrek Battle Team." Berserk Team's captain, Crazy Rhino, looked at Shrek Battle Team with anger in his eyes. Then he turned to Tang San. "Kid, we won't let your Poison Needles injure us again this time."

Dai Mubai stepped forward and said coldly to Crazy Rhino, "Don't worry. This time, we'll defeat you head-on and wash away the humiliation of Shrek Battle Team."

The host shouted, "All right! Today's team spirit battle is Shrek Battle Team versus Berserk Team! This is the second clash between these two teams. The last time Shrek Battle Team faced Berserk Team, Berserk Team narrowly claimed victory. What will the result be this time? All right, both teams, activate your Martial Souls. The spirit battle is about to begin!"

Very soon, both sides activated their Martial Souls.

Crazy Rhino looked at the members of Shrek. Ever since they had nearly lost to this team last time, Berserk Team had studied them. Every one of them possessed a top-tier Spirit Ring Configuration, and they no longer dared to underestimate them. He said coldly, "I've read your team's information. You should have another Soul Elder, right? Why isn't he fighting?"

Dai Mubai replied disdainfully, "He is Shrek Battle Team's trump card. There's no need for him to take the field against a mere Berserk Team like yours."

Hearing Dai Mubai's words, Crazy Rhino immediately flew into a rage. "Arrogant! In that case, you can have another taste of defeat!"

The battle between the two teams began.

With the experience of their previous fight, both sides were far more cautious this time.

However, with Dai Mubai joining them this time, Shrek Battle Team's strength had clearly risen by several levels. In the end, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing's Hell White Tiger defeated Berserk Team's Berserk state, securing victory.

Shrek Battle Team defeated Berserk Team and avenged their previous loss, bringing Shrek Battle Team's reputation to another peak.

Meanwhile, Zhao Zilong continued participating in one-on-one and two-on-two spirit battles every day.

However, today, he encountered an unexpected opponent. Looking at the name displayed on the spirit battle screen, he saw: Blue Silver Emperor versus Yu Tianheng.

This matchup surprised Zhao Zilong. He had not expected to encounter Yu Tianheng here, and in a one-on-one duel at that. Since Yu Tianheng had appeared here, Imperial Fighting Team must have arrived as well.

Elsewhere, in Imperial Fighting Team's lounge, Imperial Fighting Team had been in Suotuo City for several days and had maintained a flawless record of victories.

At that moment, Imperial Fighting Team's leader, Qin Yin, placed Zhao Zilong's information before Yu Tianheng. "Tian Heng, take a look. This is your opponent for the next match. In just over a month at Suotuo City's Great Soul Arena, he has achieved fifty-one consecutive victories in one-on-one individual spirit battles and fifty-one consecutive victories in two-on-two spirit battles. He is the Spirit Master who obtained a Silver Spirit Badge in the shortest time since the Great Soul Arena was established. Suotuo City's Great Soul Arena has offered a reward of ten thousand Gold Soul Coins and hopes we can defeat him."
