Spirit City's Finest Gather! Tang San, King of Showboating, Makes a Dazzling Entrance!
Outside Spirit City, there is a Great Soul Arena.
The frenzied shouts came in waves, like scalding tides.
The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, the Continental Team Advancement Tournament, has officially begun!
Thirty-three top teams from the two great empires and various border regions have gathered here.
The rules of the round-robin points competition are simple and straightforward: win a game and you get 3 points, draw a game and you get 1 point, and lose a game and you get zero points.
Only the top three teams in the final standings are qualified to step onto the final championship stage, which symbolizes the highest honor.
As for the Spirit Hall Academy, Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and Star Luo Royal Academy, as the three seeded teams, they enjoy the privilege of a bye in the first round.
The first round: thirty-three to sixteen.
Even though the Shrek Team lost their Captain Tang San,
But with their newly acquired teammates, Yu Tianheng's powerful Thunder and Osler's unpredictable speed, they still swept all the way.
Shrek secured their first victory cleanly and decisively, followed by a winning streak, and successfully advanced to the round of 16.
However, the revelry was not yet over.
The second round of the round of 16 to 8 has begun in full swing.
The atmosphere inside the preparation area of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was rather peculiar.
"Hasn't A-Qing come back yet?"
Xiao Wu rubbed her slightly sore neck, tilted her head, and mumbled something under her breath.
"It's already the second round of the competition, and he, as the Captain, hasn't even shown up yet."
Zhu Zhuqing was dressed in a sleek black leather outfit. Although her cold and beautiful eyes were calm, they also carried a hint of concern.
Ning Rongrong, with her legs crossed, chuckled as she fiddled with her slender fingers, "Xiao Wu, don't worry about it. A-Qing will be fine."
Dugu Yan also looked at Dugu Bo: "Grandpa, did you sense it?"
Dugu Bo shook his head helplessly.
"Don't ask me, he hasn't entered the city yet."
"However, before he left, he instructed that the first two rounds of easy targets were just for you girls to handle."
"Tch, what a boastful tone, but... I like it!"
Dugu Yan licked her lips alluringly, a hint of amusement flashing in her emerald green snake eyes.
"Alright, since the Captain's not here, I'll lead the team today and finish this quickly!"
Bai Chenxiang and Ye Lingling exchanged a smile, their beautiful eyes filled with trust in each other.
With their superb tactical teamwork, the Imperial Fighting Team swept through match after match, effortlessly securing a spot in the top eight.
Meanwhile, the Shrek Team, thanks to the explosive output of Yu Tianheng and Dai Mubai, also managed to defeat their opponents and advance to the quarterfinals!
Day 6.
The quarterfinals have officially begun!
Both the Spirit Hall Platinum Team and the Heaven Dou Royal Team won easily.
The referee's booming voice echoed throughout the arena, "The final match of the quarterfinals will be between Shrek Academy Team and Star Luo Royal Academy Team!"
Upon hearing this, the entire audience erupted in deafening screams!
In the viewing area of the Star Luo Royal Academy, two extremely conspicuous figures slowly stood up.
The leader was burly and had a face that resembled Dai Mubai's by about 70%, but his brows revealed a cold and cruel nature.
It was none other than the First Prince of Xingluo, the level 48 Evil-Eyed White Tiger Martial Soul, the Battle Soul Master, Davis!
Beside him, a woman with a hot figure and alluring eyes slightly raised her chin; she was Zhu Zhuqing's older Elder Sister, Zhu Zhuyun!
The cruel rules of the Star Luo Empire are known throughout the world.
In royal power struggles, the victor becomes king, while the loser is not only stripped of all inheritance rights but also has their life and death in the hands of others!
For Dai Mubai, this battle was not just a competition, but a fateful showdown concerning his dignity and survival.
"My dear brother, I never imagined that you, after escaping to the Heaven Dou Empire, would still be able to achieve this level of success."
Dai Weisi looked down at the Shrek team, a cruel and mocking smile playing on his lips.
"It's a pity that stray dogs can never escape the fate of being trampled underfoot by their masters."
"Dai Weisi!"
Dai Mubai clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, his eyes bloodshot as he stared intently at Dai Weisi, his teeth grinding together.
Zhu Zhuyun's gaze, however, bypassed Shrek's team and landed on the high platform viewing area of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
There, Zhu Zhuqing sat quietly in the spot belonging to the Imperial Fighting Team.
Her delicate, pretty face held no tenderness, only a cold indifference that seemed to see through everything.
The royal shackles that once kept her awake at night Entanglement her family's fate like a nightmare.
Now, in her eyes, it has long since turned to ashes.
She didn't even bother to glance at Zhu Zhuyun.
He simply picked up his teacup leisurely and took a small sip.
"Damn it... how dare they ignore me?"
Zhu Zhuyun's fingernails, hidden in her sleeve, suddenly tightened, and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.
She couldn't understand why her younger sister, whom she had always suppressed since childhood, now looked at her with the eyes of someone looking at an ant!
The fighting spirit raged wildly in the air as the Shrek team members took to the stage one after another.
Dai Mubai, Yu Tianheng, Osler, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Shi Mo, Shi Mo.
Shrek Team's formation looked particularly bulky and awkward.
The atmosphere was extremely tense as they faced the perfectly coordinated and powerful Star Luo Royal Team.
Yu Xiaogang sat on the preparation bench, his fists clenched, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
"Damn it... if the Xiao San were here..."
The referee prepares to wave the flag to announce the start of the match.
"Wait, I want to join the war!"
A clear, cool voice, brimming with supreme confidence, suddenly resounded at the entrance of the stadium, like a thunderclap from a clear sky.
Look, everyone!
At the entrance of the Great Soul Arena, a tall and slender figure walked slowly against the sunlight.
It's Tang San!
At the crucial moment of the quarterfinals, Tang San returned!
Yu Xiaogang stood up excitedly. "The Xiao San!"
Tang San stepped onto the arena step by step, his gaze sweeping across the entire arena.
"Sorry, I was delayed on the way."
He slightly raised his chin, his voice carrying an arrogant and domineering aura that resonated throughout the entire area through his Soul Power.
Ning Rongrong couldn't help but roll her eyes and put the fruit plate she was holding on the table.
"Tsk tsk, that entrance, those lines... anyone who didn't know better would think he was a god descended to earth to save the world."
"If A-Qing saw him like this, she'd probably laugh so hard she'd spit out her food for three days straight."
Xiao Wu blinked her big eyes and muttered softly, "What a pretentious act."
"But A-Qing said, the higher you stand, the harder you fall."
"The happier he laughs now, the uglier he'll probably cry later."
Tang San naturally couldn't hear their taunts.
He skillfully took over the position of Shi Mo and took command of the team.
He glanced coldly at Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun opposite him, a confident smile playing on his lips.
Just as his gaze inadvertently swept over the spectator stands of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, his brows furrowed slightly.
The Imperial Fighting Team members are all here.
Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong... each one was radiant and exuded a powerful aura.
But the most central Captain's seat was empty!
Lin Qingmo is not here?
A hint of doubt flashed in Tang San's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by boundless arrogance.
"Isn't he here? Did he run away? Or is he simply too afraid to face me?"
Tang San sneered inwardly.
In his view, his strength had undergone a tremendous transformation since his return.
"In that case, let's start by targeting the Star Luo Royal Academy!"
Tang San suddenly raised his hand and summoned the Clear Sky Hammer.
"Shrek Team, listen to my command! Crush them!"
