Death Group?
God-level... or above?
Are you kidding me?
This was Zhang Lexuan's first thought. God-level was one thing, but something above god-level meant Wang Qingya's parents were Deity?
Is this even possible?!
To be honest, for a moment, Zhang Lexuan thought her boyfriend had lost his mind and was talking nonsense. Deity aren't something you can just find anywhere.
However, seeing Zhou Huan's confident expression and the way he used telepathy, Zhang Lexuan no longer had any doubts.
She just always felt that ever since she met Zhou Huan, those ridiculous things kept happening one after another. Putting aside everything else, Zhou Huan himself was not normal. Looking at the known history of the Douluo Continent, where has there ever been an eighteen-year-old Titled Douluo Dual Soul Cores?
But her boyfriend actually did it.
So, it's quite normal for Deity to appear around him... right?
There was nothing Zhang Lexuan could do but tell herself that it all made sense; whatever strange things happened to Zhou Huan seemed quite reasonable.
Yes, that's right, I found an amazing boyfriend.
Zhou Huan, of course, had no idea that his girlfriend had thought so much in such a short time. Seeing her dazed expression, he found it somewhat amusing and continued to transmit his voice, "Don't be so surprised. He's just a god. Your boyfriend will become a god someday, and so will you, Sister Lexuan. We should be like Uncle Wang and Aunt Ling, a carefree couple of immortals."
Zhang Lexuan nodded subconsciously, then said, "Whether I become a god or not, as long as I can stay with you for the rest of my life, that's enough."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Huan lowered his head and gently kissed Zhang Lexuan's pretty face, saying, "Not just a lifetime, but forever, an eternity without the end of time."
However, it was broad daylight and they were outside. Although Zhou Huan had sealed off the entire lakeside pavilion, Zhang Lexuan still felt her cheeks burning from the sudden kiss. She immediately buried her head in Zhou Huan's chest and said nothing.
Seeing the shy Zhang Lexuan, Zhou Huan didn't continue to be "outrageous." He simply held the beautiful girl tightly, savoring the wonderful moment.
In fact, this is the kind of life Zhou Huan truly desires; fighting and killing are ultimately not what he likes.
Zhou Huan wasn't some hot-blooded youth who loved conquering the world, nor did he have any grand ambitions to unify Douluo or become the sole ruler.
However, for the sake of long-term planning and to truly control his own destiny in this fantasy world, there are some things he has to fight for and some things he has to do.
Two more days have passed in the blink of an eye.
The second round of Elimination Match has officially ended. As expected, like Shrek, Tang Sect also successfully defeated their opponents and entered the third round of Elimination Match. However, their opponents were obviously much weaker than Ming Yu Sect.
One of the basic requirements for entering this Soul Master Competition is that participating teams must have at least five Soul Ancestor.
Teams like Ming Yu Sect, with two Soul Emperors and five Soul Kings, could be considered top contenders for the championship. However, they were unfortunately eliminated in the second round of the Elimination Match while trying to test Shrek.
On the seventh day of the Soul Master Competition, all twenty-one matches of the third round of Elimination Match were completed within that day.
The 21 winning teams will naturally advance to the next round of the Group Stage.
However, since there are four groups with eight teams in each group, the remaining eleven teams were selected from the twenty-one teams that failed in the third round of Elimination Match, based on their match points.
However, none of this had anything to do with Shrek, because in the third round of Elimination Match, Zhou Huan didn't even need to lift a finger; Wang Qiu'er and Wen Xiaoshuai easily led their team to victory.
Because this time their opponents were only four Soul Kings and three Soul Ancestor.
Therefore, even Little Fire Dragon Wu Feng and Fengchu Zhou Sichen had a chance to go on stage and enjoy themselves in this competition.
Zhou Huan was basically just watching the show from the sidelines.
Zhou Huan let them participate in the team competition, which was originally unnecessary.
It's simply a matter of each person going on stage to play one or two matches during the Individual Elimination Tournament, then conceding defeat, which then allows the team matches to begin.
After the three rounds of Elimination Match in the preliminary rounds, the group stage will begin.
However, when the Shrek Team received the Group Stage draw and saw their opponent list, many people immediately became furious.
In the Shrek Team's meeting room, Little Fire Dragon Wu Feng was the first to speak up, "The Sun Moon Empire is too shameless! How could they put together such a group! They're treating us like idiots! This is the group of death!"
Zhou Huan glanced at the race schedule and shook his head speechlessly.
Shrek Academy was assigned to the first group, but the same group also included Tang Sect, Snow Demon Sect, Heavenly Dragon Gate, and four other sects that were slightly weaker.
What does this mean?
Anyone with eyes can see that Shrek, Tang Sect, Snow Demon Sect, and Heavenly Dragon Gate all have the strength to advance to the top eight, but now they've all been grouped together.
It's important to understand that only the top two teams from the Group Stage can advance to the Top 8 match.
But now, the Sun Moon Empire clearly intends to eliminate two strong teams first.
Looking at the second group where the Sun Moon Team is located, apart from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, the other seven teams are from sects or academies that most people have never even heard of.
You might say there are hidden sects among them, but no matter how hidden they are, there will always be people who know about them. Besides, after the first three rounds of Elimination Match, you can at least see some of their strength.
It's quite obvious that in the second group, only the Sun Moon Team is a truly strong team.
The fourth group, which included the Holy Spirit Sect, was in a similar situation.
However, Zhou Huan didn't think that the Holy Spirit Cult was afraid of strong teams. Rather, Zhong Liwu wanted to win the championship more easily, so that the Holy Spirit Cult could gradually come to the forefront.
As for what Xiao Hongchen's Sun Moon Team was thinking, Zhou Huan wasn't sure; it was probably Xu Tianran's arrangement for a more secure outcome.
After all, Xiao Hongchen wasn't afraid of Shrek or Tang Sect; he still wanted to avenge his previous humiliation.
Regardless of what others think, the Group Stage schedule has been finalized and cannot be changed.
Since the Group Stage is arranged by the organizers, namely the Sun Moon Empire, the participating teams have no say in the matter.
In fact, these strong teams didn't perform at their full potential in the preliminaries. You could call them strong, but I could also call them weak.
This kind of thing is impossible to unravel.
Those who understand will understand, but most viewers won't care about that.
Therefore, no matter how angry Wu Feng and the others were, they couldn't change the outcome.
Therefore, Zhou Huan said, "We'll meet force with force and water with earth. We'll defeat all our opponents, but in the end we'll still run into the Sun Moon Team and the Holy Spirit Cult. Then we'll just deal with them decisively."
Ning Tian added, "The captain is right. We have the strength, so we're not afraid of their tricks. I thought the Sun Moon Empire wasn't going to cause any trouble in the third round of the Elimination Match, but I didn't expect them to pull something in the Group Stage."
At this moment, Fengchu Zhou Sichen suddenly chimed in, "With the captain and Deputy Captain here, the championship is already in our grasp. What are the little Sun Moon Team and the Holy Spirit Cult compared to this!"
Cao Wolong chimed in, "Agreed +1."
The rest of the group. "..."
Zhou Huan shook his head helplessly and said, "Alright, that concludes today's meeting. Everyone, get some rest and prepare for tomorrow's first Group Stage. The Body Sect isn't so easy to deal with."
Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned solemn. "Yes, Captain."
