Seven Treasures Battles Beast Spirit
To One Through Five, One Through Six, or even One Through Seven will inevitably nail the name of the opposing academy to the Pillar of Shame in the competition.
Although the two Battle Team have their own grudges, it's not to the point of life or death, so they have to give each other some face.
If the fight goes too far, it's bound to cause resentment.
An open attack is easy to dodge, but a hidden arrow is hard to defend against.
Although the other party wouldn't dare to make a move during the Spirit Master Competition, everyone still has a long road ahead of them.
Meng Shu is, after all, a senior figure in the Spirit Master world. Offending him could lead to retaliation, which would be disastrous.
Feng Xiaotian and the others turned their gazes toward Wu Qi.
They were not afraid of Meng Shu's retaliation.
How many years does a person with one foot in the grave have left to live?
Moreover, Meng Shu should fear them. After all, Meng Shu cannot protect Meng Yiran forever.
If she offends them, Meng Yiran will have no way to survive in the future.
Sun Buyu's reminder made some sense, but the crowd wouldn't fully heed it.
Wu Qi said in a deep voice, "Xiaotian will go first, followed by Chang Kong, then Wushuang, and then it's up to you."
"I don't want to see Wushuang play in this match, understand?"
Feng Xiaotian laughed heartily, "Since I'm going to be the first to step up, I'm afraid Chang Kong won't need to fight."
The Beast Spirit Academy Team only has three Soul Ancestor; the rest are all Soul Elder.
With this kind of team configuration, they'll basically be eliminated in the first round if they make it to the Finals; there's nothing to worry about.
Of course, the opponent might not give them the chance to win One Through Seven. If things go wrong, they can always admit defeat, right?
On the other side, in the Rest Room of Beast Team.
Upon learning that their opponent was the Seven Treasures Team, Meng Yiran said indignantly, "Let me face off against Wu Qi. I'd like to see if he's as good as the rumors say."
"No, you mustn't!" Meng Shu advised.
As the financial backers behind the Beast Spirit Academy, the decisions of the Peerless Dragon Serpent Couple can greatly influence the academy's tactics and strategies.
Who is Wu Qi? He is a prodigy recognized even by the imperial Imperial Family. Meng Yiran only Soul Elder. If she were to fight Wu Qi one-on-one, she would only be asking for trouble.
The Leading Teacher from the Beast Spirit Academy hurriedly said, "Senior Dragon Duke Lord, with the strength of the Seven Treasures Team, if the first to appear is Soul King powerhouse, they are very likely to defeat One Through Seven."
"For the honor of the academy, please allow me to concede at the appropriate time."
After being defeated four times in a row, even if Feng Xiaotian or Wu Qi had the strength to fight again, after they conceded defeat, no one believed that the other side could definitely defeat One Through Five.
After all, the match is over, and the subsequent results are just speculation.
Early the next morning.
Each Battle Team left the rest area and went to the audience seats in front of the Arena.
With no outside spectators, the stands felt very spacious.
It is worth mentioning that the person representing the Imperial Family today was neither Xue Ye nor Xue Qinghe, but Prince Xue Xing.
Their attitude towards the Preliminary Round can be seen from the choice of the Imperial Family representatives.
It's important to know that apart from the Seven Treasures Team, none of the other Battle Team in the entire Preliminary Round had Soul King.
In one-on-one matches, individual skill is paramount. How could a Battle Team with two Soul King possibly lose?
Now that the results are already known, the viewing experience of the Qualifying Round will inevitably be greatly reduced.
All the participating teams sat in the same audience seats, and the Battle Team with rivalries against each other created a highly competitive atmosphere.
The first match of the day is between the Shrek Academy and Barak Academy.
In the Original Space-Time, Xiao Wu possessed the Lovesick Heartbreak Red and, through the power of this Immortal Herb, easily defeated her opponent by cheating.
With Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong's sharp eyesight, how could they not see that they were cheating?
To reiterate, Original Space-Time Ning Fengzhi and the Heaven Dou Empire were paying attention to the Shrek Team, and since Yu Xiaogang had produced the Papal Order from the Spirit Hall, Salas didn't dare to openly oppose them. That's why he turned a blind eye and let them pass through.
Now, if they cheat in any way, they will definitely be eliminated.
The Barak Academy Team is far stronger than the Beast Spirit Academy.
The final score of the match was 5 to 7.
Although the two sides seemed evenly matched, Wu Qi knew that Tang San and Dai Mubai had not yet made their appearance.
Yu Tianheng, the fifth player to appear, accomplished a remarkable feat of defeating three opponents in a row, ending the match.
If Shrek's order of appearance were reversed, Barak Team would have lost even more miserably.
Of course, the grudge between the Barak Academy and Shrek Academy is the former one. Now that Flender and Ma Hongjun are gone, Tang San and his group don't need to inherit their grudges.
Tang San ultimately did not participate in this match, and Wu Qi did not know whether Tang San's strength had improved during this month-long rest period.
About half an hour later, it was the turn of the Seven Treasures Team to compete against the Beast Spirit Academy Team.
During the pre-match etiquette ceremony, both teams stepped onto the Arena and shook hands.
Meng Yiran, as the Vice-Captain of the Beast Team, stood at the front of the team and approached Wu Qi, saying provocatively, "Wu Qi, do you dare to fight me in the first match?"
Wu Qi shrugged. "Provocation won't work on me. We'll just take the field one by one according to the pre-match plan."
"If you are strong enough to defeat those who came before me, you will naturally be able to wait for my appearance."
Meng Yiran was about to berate the other party when the Team Captain of the Beast Spirit Academy Team stopped her, "Yiran, don't be impolite. This is the competition venue, and the Imperial Family and the Spirit Hall are watching."
Meng Yiran glared fiercely at the other person, but had no choice but to give up.
After the etiquette ceremony, the other members of each Battle Team left the stage, leaving only the first player to take the stage.
Before leaving, Wu Qi patted Feng Xiaotian on the shoulder and said softly, "Xiaotian, it's up to you now. Remember, the Arena has expanded, so don't get too entangled with your opponent to avoid depleting your energy."
A smile appeared on Feng Xiaotian's lips. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I won't give Chang Kong a chance to appear."
After all the players from both sides left the field, the referee immediately announced the start of the match.
Below the Arena, a teacher from the Beast Spirit Academy approached Meng Yiran with a wry smile.
"Still, based on the discussion with Senior Dragon Duke yesterday, the Seven Treasures Team is likely planning to take us One Through Five, or even One Through Six. You probably won't encounter Wu Qi."
"We will concede defeat at the appropriate time in this match."
The Beast Spirit Academy is, after all, their own business. No matter how willful Meng Yiran, she can't ruin their reputation.
She glared at Wu Qi resentfully, but then acquiesced to the Leading Teacher's suggestion.
The first member of the Beast Spirit Academy Team to take the stage was a Soul Elder, who faced off against Feng Xiaotian, a Soul King Rank.
This person had a clear goal: he wouldn't confront Feng Xiaotian head-on, but instead planned to constantly dodge, thereby depleting Feng Xiaotian's physical and Soul Power and creating an opportunity for his teammates to eliminate the opponent.
Unfortunately, Feng Xiaotian was Agility Attack-Type Spirit Master, while this person was only Defense-Type Spirit Master.
As soon as the match began, Feng Xiaotian sprouted wings from his back and instantly appeared in front of the man.
In just one exchange, he threw him out of the Arena.
Qibao team leads 1-0.
