On the stage, Zheng Zhan watched in a daze as Wang Xiaolei was first blasted into ice shards, then the ice shards turned into wisps of white smoke, and finally dissipated in the wind.

It wasn't that Zheng Zhan was following Xu Tianran's secret orders and completely disregarding the lives of the Holy Spirit Cult players; it was mainly because Zhou Huan acted too quickly and too secretly.

Who would have thought that Zhou Huan simply grabbed the opponent's bone whip and flicked it back, and the opponent was gone in the next second.

Before this, Zhou Huan had never used lethal force. Even when facing the Sun Moon Team, he only crippled Zhou Xinghao, but never killed his opponent.

It is evident that Zhou Huan, or rather Shrek, is determined to kill these Evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult.

Although it was a dereliction of duty for a referee to fail to prevent the death of a competitor, Zheng Zhan didn't feel any displeasure after a brief moment of surprise. This was mainly because at least eight or ten competitors had died in this competition because of the Holy Spirit Cult.

Now that it's their turn, they've brought this upon themselves; they've reaped what they sowed.

Zheng Zhan immediately announced, "In the first match of the Individual Elimination Tournament, Shrek wins! Now, please welcome the Holy Spirit Sect to send their next contestant to the stage for the second match."

Zheng Zhan didn't mention a word about Wang Xiaolei, whose body had been completely destroyed.

There's not much to say, since the Holy Spirit Cult contestants said in the first round of the Soul Master Competition Elimination Match it's normal for people to die in the competition, and if you're capable, you can kill them too.

This is simply the cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is inevitable.

Immediately afterwards, a short young man stepped out from the Holy Spirit Cult.

Zheng Zhan didn't waste any words and continued, "Both sides, please state your names."

"Shrek, Zhou Huan."

"Holy Spirit Sect, Jili."

"The match begins!"

Suddenly, the Holy Spirit Cult contestant Jili's aura changed, and six Soul Ring— two yellow, two purple, and two black—flashed into existence, revealing him to be yet another Soul Emperor!

In less than two seconds, the short-statured Jili rapidly expanded, and its entire body was covered with a thick layer of gray-blue scales.

Of course, this isn't the most outrageous one.

Most outrageously, Jili's head had transformed into a large, triangular head, while a long, purplish-black tongue hissed and contracted incessantly like a venomous snake.

Combined with his sharp, dark green eyes, he looked like a humanoid monster resembling a chameleon.

However, Zhou Huan knew that this Evil Soul Master named Jili did not have a chameleon Martial Soul, but a kind of Evil Martial Soul called the Brain Eater Beast.

Brain Eater Beast, as the name suggests, are evil Martial Soul that specialize in devouring brain marrow to rapidly cultivate.

The brain marrow it devours can belong to an ordinary person or Soul Master.

As for Jili, this Soul Emperor who is not yet twenty years old, coupled with his sinister aura, it's easy to guess how he acquired his Soul Emperor cultivation.

Zhou Huan felt that purifying such Evil Soul Master was more in line with his consistent environmentalist principles.

Having activated its Martial Soul and prepared for battle, Jili certainly lived up to Zhou Huan's expectations. Its gaping maw emitted bursts of emerald green corrosive energy, and its long, purplish-black tongue, exceeding one meter in length, charged straight at Zhou Huan!

Zhou Huan immediately wanted to complain, "Do you think you're Sadako? Sticking your tongue out so long. Besides, Sadako is much prettier than this triangular-headed monster of yours."

Uh... seems like I've revealed some kind of otaku/nerd vibe.

But none of that mattered. Zhou Huan formed two swords with his fingers and slashed at the long, purplish-black tongue!

A streak of blue-white icy air streaked past at lightning speed--

The tongue broke off, the ice melted, and then shattered into ice shards.

"Ah--!"

Jili, whose long tongue had been cut in half, immediately let out a miserable scream.

However, his suffering wouldn't last long, because at the same time the purplish-black tongue was cleaved into several pieces, a white figure, like a ghost, flashed behind him without warning, followed by a snow-white hand slapping his back.

"Bang--!"

After a deafening explosion of ice, Jili, still in the state of the Brain-Eating Beast Spirit, exploded.

The ground was covered in ice shards again.

Instantly, the hundreds of thousands of spectators in the stadium erupted in cheers!

If Wang Xiaolei's previous battles were quite impressive, with him unleashing several Soul Skills, then now it's like this: Jili took the stage, Jili activated his Martial Soul, Jili attacked, Jili... died!

There was absolutely no chance of resistance; it was an instant kill!

It makes it seem like this Evil Soul Master from the Holy Spirit Sect was just handed over for free, but you're supposed to be a Soul Emperor, for goodness' sake!

Of course, if it were any other contestant who died, the audience might have had different opinions and emotions, but since it was Evil Soul Master who died, everyone could only applaud and cheer.

After all, the people of the Sun Moon Empire disliked Evil Soul Master even more than Shrek.

Because at least Shrek wouldn't kill them for no reason, but Evil Soul Master would.

Under the competition stage, in the VIP area, Zhong Liwu's fists were clenched so tightly they were cracking.

At this moment, a voluptuous red-clothed young woman approached Zhong Liwu and whispered, "This Shrek Disciple is unbelievably strong. Is the Extreme Ice really that powerful?"

Zhong Liwu thought for a moment, but did not answer the red-clothed young woman. Instead, he said, "Next, let Yan Feng go on."

Upon hearing this, the red-clothed young woman was taken aback at first, then said, "Yan Feng is your Disciple, what if..."

However, before the red-clothed young woman could finish speaking, Zhong Liwu interrupted, "There's no 'what if.' If he can't even handle a Soul King Disciple from Shrek, what use is he!"

After hearing this, the red-clothed young woman didn't say anything more, but instead disappeared from the VIP area in a flash.

On the competition stage, Zheng Zhan was no longer shocked by Zhou Huan's performance. He felt that he was gradually getting used to the Shrek captain's outrageous fighting power.

Zheng Zhan calmly announced, " In the Individual Elimination Tournament, the second match, Shrek wins! Now, please welcome the Holy Spirit Sect to send their next contestant to the stage to begin the third match."

When Zheng Zhan uttered those familiar words, he suddenly felt as if he were saying, "Please send the next contestant from the Holy Spirit Sect to face their doom."

It's absurd, but that's the feeling Zheng Zhan had.

There is no rest time in the Individual Elimination Tournament, especially since one member of the Holy Spirit Cult is completely destroyed and the other is shattered into ice shards. It's the kind of competition where there's no way to win even if you want to. So now, even the time for the loser to leave the stage is saved.

So, just as Zheng Zhan announced that the third match was about to begin, a seemingly unremarkable young man in black stepped out from the Holy Spirit Cult.

Why do I say he lacks distinctive features?

Unlike many other Holy Spirit Cult members who have strange appearances, this young man in black looks more like an ordinary Soul Master.

The only difference was that the chilling aura emanating from him was almost overflowing.

On the stage, Zheng Zhan saw that the Holy Spirit Cult's contestants were in position, and neither side seemed inclined to engage in any verbal sparring, so he continued, "Both sides, state your names."

"Shrek, Zhou Huan."

"Holy Spirit Sect, Yan Feng."

"The match begins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Feng took a step forward, and seven Soul Ring —yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black—slowly rose from beneath his feet!

Seven Rings, Soul Sage!

He appeared on the competition stage once again.

While the audience has seen Soul Sage before, the sheer Soul Sage in this tournament is absurd.

What's even more outrageous is that two Soul Sages have already been defeated by Zhou Huan.

So now, facing a Soul Sage, an Evil Soul Master, can this Shrek captain continue his legendary career?

At this moment, hundreds of thousands of spectators in the stadium were filled with excitement, their eyes shining with anticipation.
