Group Stage's First Battle: Wen Shuai Takes the Field!

The following morning, led by Zhou Huan and Zhang Lexuan, the Shrek team once again stepped into the East Suburb Arena.

When they arrived at the Waiting Area, the stadium was still packed with spectators.

After all, this is Shrek's first Group Stage.

The audience of the Sun Moon Empire naturally wouldn't idolize Shrek, but that doesn't mean they can't like certain characters, such as the Golden Goddess Wang Qiu'er.

Who wouldn't like a beautiful, cool, and strong girl like this?

Even the title "Golden Goddess" was given by hundreds of thousands of viewers.

In many people's eyes, Shrek is Shrek, and the Golden Goddess is the Golden Goddess. Just because the goddess originated from Shrek doesn't mean she'll always be a member of Shrek. Perhaps she's currently forced into this situation? Is she compelled to fight because she's part of Shrek?

That's right, this is the kind of idol worship behavior some people exhibit, and it's unavoidable even in a fantasy world like Douluo Continent.

In response, Zhou Huan could only sigh, "Beauty is justice!"

However, this wasn't entirely without its advantages; at least when Shrek appeared, there were far fewer boos.

Yes, this kind of poor spectator behavior also exists in the Sun Moon Empire.

You might wonder, if most people in the Sun Moon Empire dislike Shrek, why would they come to watch the competition?

This is actually quite normal; there are plenty of cases where people watch and criticize simultaneously, it's nothing new.

Of course, this had no impact on Zhou Huan, since he had seen many similar things in his previous life.

However, to Zhou Huan's surprise, Xu Tianran and Ju Zi were there again in the VIP area. Were these two really die-hard Shrek fans? They came to every Shrek game.

This time, however, only Jing Hongchen stood behind Xu Tianran; Zhong Liwu did not come.

Zhou Huan thought to himself that he had recently taken down one of their Third Elder and seven Soul Sages, and he wondered what the Holy Spirit Cult was up to now.

Just as Zhou Huan was pondering these random thoughts, the Snow Demon Sect (the pseudonym of the Body Sect in the competition) also entered the arena.

Without a doubt, the team was led by Long Aotian and Vina.

Today, Vina unusually tied her long hair into a ponytail, it seems she's about to leave the game.

It's worth mentioning that Zhou Huan had misremembered. He originally thought that among the younger generation, only Xiao Xiao possessed a natural Twin Martial Souls. However, after meeting Vina, he realized that Vina also had Twin Martial Souls.

In particular, her Brain Martial Soul has reached the Second Silver Awakening, making her a rare genius in the Body Sect.

As for Long Aotian, Zhou Huan hadn't seen him for quite some time.

During his time in Mingdu, Vina did meet him once, but Long Aotian did not appear.

Upon seeing him today, Zhou Huan discovered that Brother Long had become the same steady, mature, and somewhat aloof Long Aotian.

Just from his eyes, Zhou Huan could tell that Long Aotian was no longer the passionate and carefree Brother Long he once was.

On the other side, in the Waiting Area of the Body Sect, Long Aotian seemed to have noticed Zhou Huan's gaze and looked over as well. When he saw Zhou Huan, he nodded slightly with a serious expression.

Zhou Huan could only respond with a smile.

At this moment, the referee on the platform spoke with a heavy voice, "Silence!"

The voice wasn't loud, but it carried an overwhelming pressure that dominated the entire area.

He's Titled Douluo!

However, it was only around level 92, which wasn't much to Zhou Huan.

After the room quieted down, the referee continued, "I, Zheng Zhan, am one of the referees for the Group Stage. I now declare the All Continent Youth Soul Master Elite Competition, Group 1, Match 1: Shrek Academy vs. Snow Demon Sect, officially open!"

"Next, we'll begin with the Individual Elimination Tournament. Please send your teams to the stage!"

In the Shrek Waiting Area, Zhou Huan looked at Wen Xiaoshuai: "Old Wen, you go first in this match."

Upon hearing this, Wen Xiaoshuai's eyes immediately flashed with fighting spirit. He nodded and then walked directly onto the competition stage.

Zhou Fengchu, standing behind him, didn't forget to shout, "Wen Shuai, take them down with one swipe! Don't hold back!"

Those confident and domineering words made it seem like Shrek had sent out a Titled Douluo!

Even Wen Xiaoshuai, who was walking onto the stage, couldn't help but twitch. Such a high-profile and insightful quote was really too much for someone as socially awkward as him to bear.

Also, what the heck is "Wen Shuai"? I'm not going to war to become a marshal!

Before Wen Xiaoshuai could even begin to complain, a tall, muscular young man in a white team uniform stepped forward from the Body Sect. He looked to be over 1.9 meters tall.

Even Wen Xiaoshuai, who is 1.83 meters tall and of standard height, appears rather "petite" next to him.

In fact, Wen Xiaoshuai, who possesses the Earth Battle Bear Martial Soul, is actually quite muscular and cannot possibly be petite.

The two of them standing on the stage together simply create a direct visual contrast at first glance.

Even Zhou Huan couldn't help but sigh, "The food at the Body Sect is really good. Not only did they raise a nearly two-meter-tall Long Aotian, but also such a strong young man."

Of course, this was just a joke Zhou Huan was secretly making in his mind.

After all, it's the Body Sect, which focuses on physical training; it's normal for them to be tall and strong.

At this moment, the two combatants on the stage were already in position, Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan immediately announced, "Both sides, state your names!"

"Shrek, Wen Xiaoshuai."

"Snow Demon Sect, Wang Yanfeng."

"The match begins!"

As soon as Zheng Zhan finished speaking, Wen Xiaoshuai and Wang Yanfeng immediately activated their Martial Soul!

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black!

Both of them had six identical Soul Ring rising from their feet!

The battle between the two Soul Emperor is about to begin!

Wang Yanfeng's Soul Ring remained unchanged, but his aura suddenly surged, and his hands instantly grew larger, emitting a blue light!

Without pausing, Wang Yanfeng launched a direct attack on Wen Xiaoshuai.

At the same time, Wen Xiaoshuai immediately activated his Earth Battle Bear Martial Soul. As his First Soul Ring lit up, his Explosive Bear Claw was activated, fearlessly meeting Wang Yanfeng's azure palm!

"BOOM--!!!"

The bear's paw collided with the blue paw, producing a loud booming sound!

Immediately, both of them retreated five meters.

Clearly, the attack was a draw, and neither side gained an advantage.

But the more this happened, the stronger Wen Xiaoshuai's fighting spirit became, especially as he recalled the unique characteristics of the Body Sect Zhou Huan had explained to him before.

The Disciple of the Body Sect do not use Soul Skill lightly, but they are good at using combat techniques, which combine Soul Power with their Body Martial Soul to unleash powerful combat strength.

The pair of hands that were emitting a blue light just now were clearly in that situation.

That's exciting! A worthy opponent!

Just as Wen Xiaoshuai was thinking this, Wang Yanfeng on the other side was also secretly shocked. He didn't expect that this Soul Emperor from Shrek was no less powerful than him!

A head-on attack against a head-on attack—it's a battle where the brave prevail!

Immediately, the two charged at each other again, and the Explosive Bear Claw and the Azure Light Palm clashed once more!

On the arena, the azure light and the bear shadows clashed and fought, occasionally accompanied by tearing and roaring sounds!

It can be described as a display of the violent aesthetics of strength and muscle!

After exchanging blows for about three minutes, Wang Yanfeng's fourth Soul Ring suddenly flashed, and with a "boom--!" sound, he actually clasped his hands together and slammed them down!

A shockwave of cyan Soul Power suddenly erupted, instantly breaking through Wen Xiaoshuai.

That was all; Wen Xiaoshuai was only forced to retreat more than ten meters and did not suffer any serious injuries.

At this moment, Wang Yanfeng suddenly leaped up, and a pair of giant hands radiating a strong blue light descended from the sky, as if he were going to slap the opponent to death.

However, Wen Xiaoshuai was not afraid at all when he saw this. In fact, he thought this angle was perfect. Immediately, his fourth Soul Ring lit up, and his Earth Battle Bear Martial Soul opened its mouth wide and roared!

A beam of yellowish-white light, half a foot wide, shot out from the mouth of the Earth Battle Bear, heading straight for the descending giant palm of blue light!

"BOOM--!!!"

After the loud explosion, the blue light dissipated, the giant hand vanished, and Wen Xiaoshuai's Battle Bear Sky Cannon ceased its attack.

However, Wang Yanfeng was clearly not having such a good time.

He looked at his own palms, which were his Body Martial Soul, and found them injured. He hadn't expected the opponent's attack to be so strong, not only breaking his giant palm combat technique but also injuring him.

However, before he could think any further, he saw Wen Xiaoshuai leap into the air just like he had a few seconds before. At the same time, his fifth Soul Ring flashed with black light, and he clenched his fists, actually condensing a red Great Hammer that was three meters wide in the air!

The next second, the Great Hammer slammed down hard on Wang Yanfeng's face!!!

Upon seeing this, Wang Yanfeng immediately activated his sixth Soul Ring, and his palms once again erupted with intense azure light, as if they had transformed into bronze iron palms, which he slapped at the oncoming red Great Hammer!

"Boom--!!"

The entire arena seemed to tremble after the red and blue lights collided!

The red iron hammer and the bronze iron palm appear to be evenly matched, with no clear winner. However, a person with profound cultivation would immediately notice that the bronze iron palm has begun to show cracks!

At this moment, Wen Xiaoshuai did not continue to exert force to shatter Wang Yanfeng's bronze iron palm. Instead, he loosened his grip, completely ignoring the red iron hammer, and in a flash, he passed the bronze iron palm and arrived behind Wang Yanfeng.

Immediately, Wen Xiaoshuai's left hand suddenly swelled up, unleashing a Great Strength Vajra Palm strike!

You have to understand, this was a palm strike from the Great Strength Vajra Bear Left Arm Bone!

If you were hit at such close range and caught completely off guard, you would be crippled even if you didn't die!

Zheng Zhan, the Unbreakable Douluo, clearly saw the terror of this attack. Without saying a word, he flashed away and pulled away Wang Yanfeng, who looked somewhat frightened.

In that brief moment, he truly felt a threat to his Life, but it was too late to dodge.

Who would have thought that the opponent would suddenly abandon their seemingly advantageous attack? Weren't they just exchanging blows and having a great time? Why the sudden change of tactics? Didn't you prefer brute force and direct attacks?

However, no matter what Wang Yanfeng thought, he had already lost.

Zheng Zhan immediately announced, " In the Individual Elimination Tournament, match one, Shrek wins!"
