Under countless heated gazes, Dai Yu remained calm, his hands in his pockets,

as he led Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong toward the Seventh Arena.

Today's opponents had already been announced.

Red Team: Class One · Dai Yu, Wang Dong, Huo Yuhao

Blue Team: Class Three · Wei Xiaodong, Lan Susu, Lan Luoluo

Dai Yu raised an eyebrow.

His memory...

Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo seemed to be sisters who had once been teammates with him.

There seemed to have been someone called Huang Chutian, right?

Where had this Wei Xiaodong come from?

"Wei Xiaodong?

Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo?"

Wang Dong furrowed her delicate brows.

"I've heard of that Wei Xiaodong. He has a Food-type Martial Soul,

and can make Recovery Sausages and Detoxifying Sausages.

He's quite famous among the new students.

Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo are twin sisters, and both their Martial Souls are hair... They seem to be from the Control System?"

Huo Yuhao grew nervous as well.

"Food System plus two Controllers... This lineup..."

"What's there to fear?"

Dai Yu smiled faintly. "Yuhao, can your Spiritual Detection Share cover the entire arena?"

Huo Yuhao froze for a moment, then nodded firmly. "Yes!"

"Then that's enough."

Dai Yu looked at Wang Dong. "In a moment, you don't need to worry about anything. Just attack with all your strength."

"Huh?" Wang Dong was startled. "What about their control..."

"Leave it to me."

The corners of Dai Yu's lips lifted slightly, and a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.

"Let them control me."

"I'd like to see whether their hair is tougher, or my Extreme Fire is more overbearing."

The gong rang.

The third round officially began!

"Spiritual Detection Share, activate!"

Huo Yuhao released his Soul Skill at the first opportunity, and golden spiritual fluctuations instantly enveloped the entire arena.

Wang Dong let out a delicate shout. The Light Goddess Butterfly's wings unfolded behind her,

casting down dazzling halos as she transformed into an arrow of light and shot straight toward the Blue Team's formation!

"Lan Luoluo!

Hold her down!"

Lan Susu shouted, and the sisters simultaneously activated their Martial Souls.

Their full heads of dark hair grew wildly, transforming into a web of countless strands that wove together and descended toward Wang Dong.

But at that moment—

a platinum-colored figure suddenly appeared in front of the two sisters!

Dai Yu!

"What?!

How did he get here?!"

Lan Susu's pupils contracted sharply. Their control web had clearly sealed off every route!

"In the face of absolute speed, your web... is too slow."

Dai Yu chuckled, reached out with his right hand, and grabbed the strands flying toward him.

Lan Susu's heart leaped.

"We've got him! Luoluo, strangle him!"

The sisters exerted their strength simultaneously. The strands instantly tightened, trying to wrap Dai Yu into a cocoon.

But in the next second—

the Red Mark between Dai Yu's brows suddenly split open!

Flame Pupil, manifest!

His golden-red vertical pupils seemed to contain a volcano on the verge of eruption.

"Extreme Fire, burn!"

Boom—!!!

Golden-red flames erupted from Dai Yu's palm and spread wildly along the strands!

Wherever the flames passed, the tough hair that Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo were so proud of melted and crumbled instantly, as if ice had encountered fire!

"Ah!!"

The sisters cried out in alarm at the same time. They felt an unbearably scorching heat travel along the strands, nearly making them faint on the spot.

"Surrender, or continue."

Dai Yu withdrew the flames and spoke indifferently.

The sisters exchanged a glance, their faces full of bitterness.

"We... surrender."

On the other side, Wei Xiaodong had yet to understand what was happening

when he saw a Great Hammer flashing with golden light already smashing toward him.

"Bang!"

The Great Hammer stopped abruptly an inch from the tip of his nose, while the forceful wind scraped his cheeks painfully.

Wang Dong withdrew the Clear Sky Hammer and curled her lips.

"Surrender. You can't even release your Soul Skill."

Wei Xiaodong nearly burst into tears.

What Soul Skill could he release?

He had just taken out a sausage when that Huo Yuhao had used Mental Interference, making his hand tremble.

He had just wanted to throw it to his teammates, but they had already surrendered...

"I... I surrender too..."

The referee raised his hand.

"Seventh Arena, Red Team wins!"

The entire arena erupted in enthusiastic cheers once again.

"Another complete crushing!"

"Three matches, and altogether they didn't even take the time it takes to burn a cup of tea!"

"Dai Yu is too strong!

That Wang Dong isn't weak either, and there's also that Huo Yuhao... Although he hasn't attacked directly, he seems to have been supporting them the whole time?"

"This team is invincible, isn't it?"

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host, on completing the third-round battle! ] [ Suppression Rating: A+ Rank (clean and decisive, without using your full strength) ] [ Rewards obtained: ] [ 1. Gold Soul Coins ×3,000 ] [ 2. Mysterious Water Pill ×1 ] [ 3. Spiritual Power Cultivation Progress +10% ]

Another Mysterious Water Pill?

Dai Yu sighed inwardly.

The first Mysterious Water Pill had the best effect.

The effects of the later Mysterious Water Pills would grow increasingly weaker.

Still, it was better than having none.

Let's see what rewards came later.

Dai Yu withdrew his Martial Soul and clapped his hands.

Three matches.

Three consecutive crushing victories.

Next, as long as he won tomorrow's fourth round, he would safely enter the Top Thirty-Two.

And after entering the Top Thirty-Two would come the real hard battle.

"Let's go. Time to return and cultivate."

Dai Yu called for the other two to leave.

When passing the Viewing Stand, he paused slightly. His gaze briefly met that cloudy yet profound gaze in the corner.

Mu En nodded slightly.

A trace of imperceptible approval flashed through those cloudy old eyes.

Dai Yu also gave a slight nod, then left with the other two in large strides.

"This boy..."

Mu En leaned back in his reclining chair, the corners of his lips curving into a faint smile.

"Not only is his talent monstrous, but his temperament is even more steady."

"It seems Shrek Academy's future... has hope."

Not far away, Qian Duoduo was grinning so broadly that he could barely close his mouth. He wished he could rush down right then and hug Dai Yu, kissing him twice.

"Good grandson!

Well done!

Grandpa has prepared something good for you tomorrow!"

Dai Yu turned around and waved with a smile.

Something good?

That was great.

He happened to need more resources to break through to Rank 30.

That night.

Dorm 108.

Dai Yu sat cross-legged on his bed, cultivating with his eyes closed.

Across from him, Wang Dong was already fast asleep, her breathing even, with an occasional faint snore.

Moonlight spilled through the window, coating her delicate little face in a layer of silver radiance.

Dai Yu opened his eyes and glanced at her, the corners of his lips lifting slightly.

This little girl had such an adorable sleeping posture.

But...

Dai Yu withdrew his gaze and sank his consciousness into his Sea of Consciousness.

"Old Man Yao."

"Hmm?"

An aged voice rang out.

Old Man Yao's illusory figure appeared, sitting cross-legged in the air above the Sea of Consciousness as he stroked his beard and smiled.

"Boy, your performance today was pretty good."

"But don't get too pleased with yourself.

With your current strength, you can indeed be considered a top-tier genius in this world.

But..."

Old Man Yao paused, his gaze deep.

"I can sense that this world's waters are deeper than you imagine."

"Titled Douluo, Limit Douluo, and even the gods spoken of in legends..."

"With your current strength, you would still be ants before those people."

Dai Yu nodded, his expression serious.

"I know."

"That's why I've been working hard."

Dai Yu took the Soul Soothing Pill from his system space and held it out before Old Man Yao.

"Old man, this is for you."
