A few more days passed, and the final match of the preliminaries arrived—Skywater Team versus Shrek Academy.
In the massive spirit arena, the clash between Skywater Academy and Shrek Academy drew the attention of every spectator who had yet to leave.
So far, both teams had maintained flawless records. No matter the outcome of this match, they would both advance to the subsequent rounds.
But a battle between two powerful teams was not something one got to see whenever they pleased. Maintaining an undefeated record through twenty-seven rounds was exceedingly rare even in past preliminaries, let alone having two such teams in the same year.
As soon as the battle began, Tang San of Shrek Academy unleashed his soul skill—Blue Silver Entanglement—straight at Skywater Team's support position.
He knew full well that the most important member of any team was its support-type soul master. Only by taking out the support-type soul master first could they maximize their chances of victory.
But knowing that did not mean others were unaware of it. Shui Bing'er immediately stepped in front of the soul skill, and with a soul skill from her Ice Phoenix martial soul, she froze Tang San's Blue Silver Vines.
From the corner of Skywater Team's side, Xiao Yu raised his brows slightly as he looked at Shui Bing'er's martial soul, which was somewhat different from before.
During this period, through her contact with him, Shui Bing'er's martial soul had increasingly been influenced by his power. It had now undergone some sort of transformation, azure veins flowing across her martial soul as its strength changed beyond recognition.
Even from so far away, Xiao Yu could sense a certain connection between himself and the Ice Phoenix martial soul. He had no idea whether that was a good thing or a bad thing.
