Huo Yuhao, Reserve Team Captain

No sooner had Xuan Zi finished speaking than a chaotic battle erupted.

The twenty-four core trainees moved almost simultaneously!

Huo Yuhao didn't hit hard, so Xu Sanshi is only a little dazed and doesn't have any other injuries.

His good friend Bei Bei immediately came over, and the two naturally formed a team.

And Xu Sanshi, this "simp," naturally didn't forget to drag Jiang Nannan into it.

Jiang Nannan frowned slightly, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes.

She hated Xu Sanshi for bothering her all the time, but at this moment, she didn't refuse to join the team for personal reasons.

These three people alone are already quite powerful.

Everyone else naturally regarded them as their biggest rivals.

Seven or eight people surrounded them at the same time, unleashing a barrage of various Soul Skill!

However, the three of them cooperated surprisingly well, with Bei Bei taking the lead in attack, Xu Sanshi defending, and Jiang Nannan providing support.

In a short period of time, the three of them had actually gained a firm advantage!

Meanwhile, in another corner of the battlefield, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao, two second-year students, were completely ignored.

To others, they were just little kids in lower grades—what threat could they possibly pose?

So the two of them stood quietly in the corner, watching the fierce fighting around them.

However, Wang Dong wasn't there to watch the spectacle.

As a member of the Tang Sect, and with Bei Bei as his Martial Brother, he naturally couldn't stand idly by.

He had been secretly observing the battle, waiting for his opportunity.

Finally...

Bei Bei and her two companions were struggling under the combined attack and were on the verge of being overwhelmed.

Just then, Wang Dong made his move!

He and Xiao Xiao silently circled behind those people, and took advantage of the moment when they were attacking with all their might and were caught off guard to strike at the same time!

The Light Goddess Butterfly suddenly burst forth with light!

The Gravity Field of the Three-Life Soul-Suppressing Cauldron suddenly pressed down!

Their sudden arrival interrupted the group's offensive.

Bei Bei and her two companions seized the opportunity and eliminated two of them, thus averting the crisis.

The entire chaotic battle lasted for half an hour.

Finally, after Xu Sanshi unleashed the Black Tortoise Power, he defeated the last three stubborn opponents.

The Soul Fighting Arena finally fell silent.

There are now only six people left on the field.

The six people are Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, and... He Caitou.

The first five people were the five who had formed a temporary team.

As for the final Soul Engineer He Caitou, he was unfamiliar with the others and did not launch a blind attack at the beginning.

Everyone else went to attack Bei Bei and the others, leaving him behind.

He just stood there in the corner, and nobody paid any attention to him the whole time.

He himself never expected that he would win so easily.

In the stands, Xuan Zi watched this scene, and the corner of his mouth twitched involuntarily.

How did someone who barely participated manage to make it into the top six?

But he himself announced the rules of the competition, so he had no choice but to accept the result.

But...

He squinted his cloudy old eyes and stared at He Caitou for a long while.

After making preparations, I'll go find Qian Duoduo to learn more about He Caitou. If he's not capable enough, then I'll kick him out of the team.

After the selection process, the seven participants learned that they would be competing as Reserve Team in the upcoming Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament.

They were all naturally very excited to be able to participate in such a grand occasion.

Only Huo Yuhao remained calm, his handsome face showing no sign of excitement or agitation.

Because he wasn't just there to compete.

Three days later.

Xuan Zi gathered everyone together again in the Soul Fighting District.

However, when they arrived, several other people had already been there.

These people included both men and women, and they were noticeably older than the group.

Huo Yuhao glanced at them and immediately knew who the main players were. He spotted Ma Xiaotao among them.

A short while later, Xuan Zi appeared.

He was still the same disheveled man, clutching a chicken leg in his hand, munching on it as he walked, his mouth dripping with oil.

Only when he reached the crowd did he raise his head and scan the men on both sides.

"In just over ten days, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament will begin."

"You are the main and Reserve Team for this competition, respectively. This is a good opportunity to introduce you to each other."

After Xuan Zi finished speaking, both sides looked at each other, and many of them had a hint of curiosity in their eyes.

Then, as if remembering something, Xuan Zi spoke up again, "Oh, right."

"Huo Yuhao, the captain of the reserve team, is Reserve Team, but he will also play in matches, just like a regular player."

Upon hearing this, the Reserve Team didn't react much.

However, several members of the regular team immediately started discussing among themselves.

Normally, Reserve Team are just there to watch the games and broaden their horizons.

Reserve Team will only be given a chance to experience the game if they encounter a weaker team.

But that's not what Xuan Zi meant at the moment. He was clearly saying that Huo Yuhao, as Reserve Team, has the same status as a regular member!

There seems to be a thick information barrier between the Shrek Academy's Inner Court and Outer Court, resulting in almost no information being shared between the two.

Perhaps this is also related to the fact that many students in the Inner Court have to go out to train and carry out Supervisory Mission. They are not in the academy most of the time, so they naturally know very little about what is happening in the Outer Court.

In short, Huo Yuhao has already made a great name for himself in the Outer Court, and he's even registered with the Sea God Pavilion.

But at this moment, these students in the Inner Court still seemed to know him very little.

Some people had never even heard of him.

"Xuan Zi."

A clear female voice rang out.

The one who spoke was a short-haired woman with ordinary looks and sharp eyes.

Her name is Xi Xi, and she is an Inner Court student and one of the selected team members.

"Isn't it against regulations to give students from Outer Court the same treatment as regular team members?"

Upon hearing this, another team member, Chen Zifeng, immediately chimed in.

"Yes, Xuan Zi, there's no room for carelessness in a competition. If you're not strong enough, going up there will only drag the whole team down."

Xuan Zi snorted.

He didn't answer, but looked at Huo Yuhao instead.

"Yuhao, please introduce yourself."

Huo Yuhao remained calm as he stepped forward, his gaze slowly sweeping over the selected players.

He spoke calmly, "Huo Yuhao, second-year student of the Outer Court, level 52 Control-type Battle Soul King."

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the Inner Court students all changed.

The initial skepticism was instantly replaced by shock.

They looked at Huo Yuhao with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

Level 52?!

Soul King?!

A second-year student in the Outer Court? That means they're only eleven or twelve years old!

This boy, seven or eight years younger than them, was actually Soul King?

Even Ma Xiaotao, who needed Huo Yuhao's help to suppress the Evil Fire, showed a hint of surprise in her eyes at this moment.

When I helped him suppress the Evil Fire, he was still Soul Ancestor.

How long has it been? He's already broken through?

Xi Xi and Chen Zifeng, who had spoken earlier, were both momentarily dazed.

They are also Soul King.

Xi Xi is level 56 and Chen Zifeng is level 57, both with higher Soul Power than Huo Yuhao.

But they are several years older than Huo Yuhao!

When they were Huo Yuhao's age, they were still struggling at the Soul Elder realm.

But this boy before me, only eleven or twelve years old, is already Soul King.

What does this mean?

This means that when Huo Yuhao reaches their age, he'll probably be Soul Saint?

These people, who have always been called geniuses, are now experiencing, for the first time, being completely outmatched in terms of talent.
