Manager Ao has reached an agreement with the Shrek Academy and left.

Looking at the middle-aged man inside, laughing happily and determined to get the agreed-upon 10,000 Gold Soul Coin, already discussing how to spend them, Manager Ao shook his head.

The Soul Fighting Arena is willing to pay an extra 10,000 Gold Soul Coin as a reward.

However, this is contingent on the Shrek Team winning this Soul Fighting and making a fortune for the Soul Fighting Arena.

They agreed without even looking at the opponent's information?

Manager Ao shook his head, not placing too much hope on the Shrek Academy.

It seems we still need to lower the odds for those two teams to the lowest possible level.

And who should be the opponent for the other team?

The captain of the Heaven Dou Second Team is already Soul Ancestor, so in theory he should be able to Battle Soul Ancestor teams that are at a higher level.

Thinking this, Manager Ao's figure gradually disappeared into the distance.

···························

Inside the room, after Manager Ao left, both Flender and Yu Xiaogang were discussing the distribution of the 10,000 Gold Soul Coin.

They believed in the strength of the Shrek Team and did not think their monster students would lose.

Flender believed that the students who won prize money through consecutive victories in the Soul Fighting Arena were not short of money, and were even richer than the academy, so he did not want to distribute the 10,000 prize money.

Yu Xiaogang, who comes from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, regards money as dirt and does not want to take advantage of the students. He suggests a reward of 10,000 Gold Soul Coin, with 1,000 for each of the seven students and the remaining 3,000 for the training program.

However, since Yu Xiaogang had already announced the allocation plan, and the students all nodded in agreement, Flender couldn't say anything more.

After discussing the distribution of the prize money, the Shrek Academy students finally had the time to look at the opponent information left behind by the protagonist, Ao.

The white cloth was edged with gold embroidery, and the Soto Great Soul Arena's logo was embroidered on both sides, with a team's information neatly recorded on it.

Everyone looked down, and even the proud Dai Mubai couldn't help but gasp.

Everyone felt a chill run down their spine.

According to the rules of team Soul Fighting, each team can have a maximum of ten people and a minimum of seven people. During Soul Fighting, the number of participants on both sides is determined by the number of participants from the side with fewer members.

The team appearing in the information is different from the Shrek Team; they have eight members, as detailed below.

Captain: Li Bai, Martial Soul: Seven Star Longyuan Phoenix Cry Sword, Level 41 Power Battle Soul Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and Two Purple.

Vice Captain: Xiao Qiao, Martial Soul: Light and Dark Swan, Level 39 Power Attack System Battle Soul Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and One Purple.

Team member: Shi Mo, Martial Soul: Black Tortoise, Level 38 Defensive Battle Soul Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and One Purple.

Team member: Shi Mo, Martial Soul: Black Tortoise, Level 37 Defensive Battle Soul Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and One Purple.

Team member: Yufeng, Martial Soul: Wind Chime Bird, Level 36 Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and One Purple.

Team member: Osler, Martial Soul: Ghost Leopard, Level 36 Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and One Purple.

Team member: Ye Lingling, Martial Soul: Nine-Heart Begonia, Level 35 Support-type Weapon Soul Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and One Purple.

Team member: Ning Rongrong, Martial Soul: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Level 31 Support-type Weapon Soul Master. Soul Ring: Two Yellow and One Purple.

The Shrek team, who had been full of confidence just moments before, fell silent.

"The captain of this team is already Soul Ancestor, the strength of the Silver Soul Fighter is simply too exaggerated. We were only two matches away from getting the Silver Soul Badge." Dai Mubai sighed with a deep breath.

Flender adjusted his crystal monocle and said, "Xiao Gang, you shouldn't have agreed to this Soul Fighting."

Meanwhile, Flender silently calculated how many Soul Coins he would lose if he broke his winning streak and had to start over!

Yu Xiaogang was not discouraged and calmly said, "Pressure is the driving force. If you back down in the face of difficulties, you will never become a true strongman. Flender, where has your youthful vigor gone?"

and...

"Although this team is of a higher level, we still have a chance to win."

"Their vice-captain's Martial Soul is Swan Martial Soul, and the captain's Seven Star Longyuan Phoenix Cry Sword Martial Soul is unheard of. It's probably some kind of Mutated Martial Soul, and it must have some kind of flaw."

"Of course, this team also has a Soul Master from Upper Three Sects, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but this Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master is only level thirty-one."

"It's uncertain whether Ning Rongrong will play. If she does, keep an eye on Ning Rongrong."

Yu Xiaogang was unfamiliar with the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, a rare Martial Soul, but he was familiar with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul.

Listening to Yu Xiaogang Yu Xiaogang's introduction, the students of the Shrek Academy gradually cheered up.

They also subconsciously overlooked the fact that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, Xiao Wu's Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul, and Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul were all relatively useless or flawed Martial Soul Martial Soul.

···························

The Soul Fighting battle competition began that evening.

In the previous one-on-one and two-on-two matches, Shrek Academy did not participate, and their opponents voluntarily conceded defeat.

This was a little trick played by the Soul Fighting Arena to ensure that the Shrek Team team could participate in the competition at their peak.

Although Tang San sensed that his opponent was somewhat powerful this time, his expression remained calm.

Since arriving in this world, from awakening his Martial Soul to beginning his cultivation, Tang San has gained a certain understanding of the combat power of Soul Master and Soul Beast in this world.

His Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is not actually very strong in combat.

In previous Soul Fighting, Tang San always relied on the combat techniques and skills he learned in his previous life, supplemented by the control of his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

Furthermore, the use of Hidden Weapon is not prohibited in the Soul Fighting Arena. If the opponent is really strong, Tang San would not mind using his signature skills, poison and Hidden Weapon, to teach the opponent a lesson.

However, before Shrek Team and Heaven Dou First Team took to the field, there was a match between Heaven Dou Second Team and a team with a Soul Ancestor Silver Soul Fighter.

Tang San looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar silver-haired youth on the stage, his pupils involuntarily contracting slightly.

Have you already reached the Soul Ancestor?

Although Kai had skipped grades and left Nuoding Academy a long time ago, Tang San would occasionally hear news about him in Nuoding City because Kai would take time to return to Holy Soul Village every year.

However, most of those news reports were about Kai repairing roads in the village, or Kai sponsoring the village children to come to the city to learn a trade, and one of the children became an apprentice in a blacksmith shop.

Tang San disdained to listen to such nonsense.

He felt a vague sense of dissatisfaction. Why did Kai always do these messy things, wasting time and energy, yet his Soul Power Level was higher than his?

Of course, if Kai knew what Tang San was thinking, he would definitely spit on him. Holy Soul Village was his hometown that raised him, so what's wrong with spending some money to help him out? All the money he spent didn't even exceed one hundred Gold Soul Coin, which is less than the tuition fee for one semester at the Shrek Academy.

He got it after playing one Soul Fighting match.

These are things I do casually when I go back to the village to visit relatives every year; they don't take up much time or effort.

The result of this competition was as expected.

Kai, clad in a dark blue Azure Dragon Demonic Armor, single-handedly cut down seven people on the opposite side of the stage.

As always, its power is unreasonable.

Even Tang San couldn't help but show a hint of envy in his eyes.

Although his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is now developing towards the control type, the actual effect does not satisfy Tang San.

His Hidden Weapon are even less effective!

Each time, it can only delay the opponent slightly. If it is a strong Power Attack System, it can break free from Blue Silver Grass's restraints. Even though Blue Silver Grass has been strengthened with resilience, it is still grass after all!

"He actually became Soul Ancestor?" Yu Xiaogang, who was standing to the side, also recognized this Innate Full Soul Power had entered Nuoding Academy with Tang San but had refused his invitation to become his disciple.

Looking at the menacingly powerful broadsword being wielded with such ferocity, Yu Xiaogang's expression shifted slightly. Indeed, a pure offensive Martial Soul was more suitable for combat.

The mistress's Blue Silver Grass was ultimately lacking, even after her own guidance...

Unfortunately, Xiao San's Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul cannot be used.

Why is this Kai so short-sighted as to refuse to become my disciple? If he had become my disciple, he would have received better Soul Ring planning and training, and his achievements would certainly not be limited to what he is now.

Yu Xiaogang watched Kai leave after dispelling his Martial Soul, feeling somewhat regretful that this genius didn't appreciate kindness.

"Do you know this armor?" Flender, who was standing nearby, asked in confusion after hearing Yu Xiaogang's words.

As a money-grubber, Flender is also a regular at the Suotuo Spirit Arena, coming from time to time to watch the matches and place bets.

Kai had previously selected various city Soul Fighting Arena, including the Suotuo Spirit Arena.

Therefore, when Manager Ao saw that this jinx had returned and even changed his Soul Fighting Badge to Silver Soul Badge, he felt as if the sky was about to fall.

The fans of the Unbeaten Demonic Armor will definitely place bets like crazy; he's going to lose a fortune!

The only consolation was that Kai agreed to a challenge against opponents of higher levels, and all the opponents he was matched with were Soul Ancestor, which at least reduced the number of people betting on Kai.

Yu Xiaogang briefly recounted what had happened between him and Kai, Flender listened with a sigh.

If Yu Xiaogang can successfully recruit Kai at the Nuoding Academy, then Shrek Academy will undoubtedly gain another top-tier genius.

Flender said enviously, "You're quite lucky. You went to that small place, Nuoding City, but you managed to run into Xiao San, Xiao Wu, and this genius named Kai one after another."

Innate Full Soul Power!

Such encounters are rare and precious, yet Yu Xiaogang encountered three of them at once.

Unfortunately, one of them slipped through the net.

Thinking of this, Flender gave Yu Xiaogang a disappointed look; he could miss an opportunity presented to him...

································

The match between Shrek Team and Heaven Dou First Team has begun.

The players from both sides take the field.

A beautiful host in a white dress began introducing the two teams.

As a veteran host, Doudou is extremely skilled at engaging the audience's emotions.

Meanwhile, Flender, unwilling to spend the money in the VIP box, led Yu Xiaogang, Zhao Wuji, and others as team leaders, standing at the team's entrance to watch the match up close.

The three were initially worried about the safety of the Shrek Team, since life and death on the arena were uncertain, especially given the huge difference in Soul Power between them and their opponents. The Shrek Team students were very likely to be injured or even killed.

Flender had secretly regretted agreeing to the match.

However, as the Dean Shrek Academy, which only accepts monsters, he was too embarrassed to suggest that the students withdraw from the competition.

"Huh?!?" Suddenly, Flender's eyes widened as he looked at the other side.

As if in disbelief, he pushed up his crystal monocle.

His expression changed abruptly, then gradually relaxed, his tense emotions seeming to ease considerably. "It seems I don't need to worry anymore this time. Wuji, look over there, who's that?"
