The Princess Carry Exit! The Entire Arena Cried Out for Romance, Next Opponent: Qianling Academy

Wang Dong'er nestled in his arms, her light blue hair brushing against his shoulder.

She was at her physical limit and her consciousness was fading, but she still managed a soft laugh.

I won't be a burden to you.

After saying this, Wang Dong'er tilted her head and fell asleep in Dai Huabin's arms.

The entire venue fell silent for a second.

Then a shout that was even more exaggerated than before erupted from the stands.

"Incredible! Incredible! Incredible!"

Shrek is so romantic!

"She carried him off the stage in a princess carry after the match; I've read that scene in storybooks!"

On the contestant's bench, Xiao Xiao immediately covered her face:

"Here we go again..."

Cui Yajie rested her chin on her hand, her tone tinged with a hint of sourness:

"Why does he hug people so naturally?"

Ning Tian watched this scene expressionlessly, saying nothing, but tapped the armrest of the chair twice with his left hand.

Zhu Lu remained seated.

She watched Dai Huabin carry Wang Dong'er off the stage, a slight smile playing on her lips, before turning to look at Di Lingxi beside her.

Di Lingxi felt a little sleepy from the bright sun. She tilted her head and yawned, her long golden hair drooping down and covering half of her face.

She was never really interested in fighting, but when she saw Dai Huabin carrying Wang Dong'er over, she immediately perked up.

"Huabin?"

"Yes, she's asleep."

Dai Huabin placed Wang Dong'er on a bench in the athletes' area and took off his coat to cover her.

Zhu Lu walked over, squatted down, reached out to feel Wang Dong'er's forehead temperature, and then checked the wound on her arm. Only after confirming that it was okay did she stand up.

"She's exhausted too much of her Soul Power; she just needs to rest for a while."

Dai Huabin nodded.

On the other side of the arena, the referee was waiting for the Yunluo Team to send out their next player.

Situ Yu was helped to the edge of the ring by his teammates. After a few seconds of silence, he turned to face the referee's table.

We abstain.

None of the Cloud Luo Academy's remaining four team members objected. Their captain had been eliminated; going up would only be suicide.

"The entire Yunluo Advanced Soul Engineer Academy has forfeited; Shrek Academy wins!"

The moment the referee announced the result, the entire stadium erupted in applause.

Dai Yueheng leaned over from the back row and patted Dai Huabin on the shoulder.

"You hold me so easily."

Dai Huabin ignored him.

Dai Yueheng leaned close to his ear and whispered:

"I'm telling you, Lulu was smiling the whole time you were holding Dong'er."

That means Lulu doesn't mind.

"It's scary if you don't mind, bro."

Dai Yueheng took the dried meat and left, shaking his head as he went.

"Even the Empress is so magnanimous, how can you possibly make Zhu Lu angry in the future?"

Wang Dong'er was fast asleep on the bench, breathing evenly. The fierce expression on her face was gone, replaced by a childlike innocence befitting her age.

Dai Huabin looked at her for a while.

To be honest, after these three matches today, he really started to look at Wang Dong'er with new respect.

The ability to switch between the Light Goddess Butterfly and the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul level 36 requires both talent and hard work.

In the original novel, Wang Dong'er's growth rate was extremely astonishing.

In this current timeline, she seems to be working even harder than in the original story.

Perhaps it's because there's now another target to chase.

Xiao Xiao got up from the chair and walked to Dai Huabin's side.

"If they face a strong team in the next round, Dong'er definitely won't have enough time to recover her form."

"She doesn't need to go."

Dai Huabin stretched his shoulders. "We'll see how things go for the next match. You and Yajie should start preparing."

Xiao Xiao responded, glanced at the sleeping Wang Dong'er, and then at Dai Huabin.

"Squad leader."

"What's wrong, Xiao Xiao?"

"What... what are your thoughts about Dong'er?"

That's a very direct question.

Dai Huabin paused for a moment, then looked at Zhu Lu, who was wiping Di Lingxi's hands.

Zhu Lu felt his gaze, looked up at him, and then very naturally turned back to continue wiping.

How could she possibly see the special connection Huabin had with Wang Dong'er? Not only Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie wouldn't be able to escape either.

Take your time.

Dai Huabin gave a vague answer.

Xiao Xiao pouted, "When you men say 'take it slow,' it means you already have an idea."

"You're so young, yet you know so much."

"I may be young, but I'm not blind," Xiao Xiao snorted and sat back down in her seat.

Dai Huabin shook his head and said nothing more.

His attention returned to the ring.

The other matches of the second Round-Robin Tournament are still underway, and the morning schedule is packed.

He noticed that Meng Hongchen was watching them from the opposite viewing area.

For a fleeting moment, all eyes turned to each other. Meng Hongchen didn't look away; instead, she nodded slightly, as if to greet them.

Dai Huabin nodded slightly in response.

Then, as he looked away, his peripheral vision swept in another direction, where a woman in a gold dress was getting up and leaving from the far corner of the VIP section.

It was indeed Xu Jiujiu.

Before leaving, she glanced at Wang Dong'er, who was fast asleep on the bench, her lips moved slightly, and then she left through the side door with her attendants.

Dai Huabin rubbed his temples.

It's only the Round-Robin Tournament, and Wang Dong'er might not be fully recovered even by tomorrow.

Grandmaster also mentioned, the strength of the opponents will gradually increase, Individual Knockout Tournament format will not appear in every match.

In the knockout stage, teamwork becomes the key.

Fortunately, both I and the Reserve Team are strong. And I still have an absolute trump card!

His gaze shifted to Snow Empress. Snow Empress sensed Dai Huabin's gaze, raised her head slightly, and her sky-blue eyes swept over him very lightly before lowering back down.

This is the absolute trump card!

Meanwhile, the Main Team on the other side was completely relaxed.

Ma Xiaotao was eating sunflower seeds with her legs crossed, Wu Ming was studying the snack guide for Star Luo City, and Dai Yueheng finished the last piece of jerky. The Shrek Team really didn't take the Round-Robin Tournament seriously.

On the other side, Han Ruoruo sat at the very back, her long golden hair tied up in a high bun, a Shaking Gold Rope silently turning around her fingertips, her profile calm.

Zhang Lexuan walked over and sat down in the empty seat next to Dai Huabin.

"Huabin, did you always know that Dong'er has dual Martial Soul?"

Dai Huabin wasn't lying, "Yes, I found out about Dong'er's identity by accident before..."

Zhang Lexuan pondered for a moment, "I didn't expect Dong'er to be a member of the Clear Sky Sect."

Clear Sky Sect.

That once rivaled the Spirit Hall as the number one sect in the world.

Zhang Lexuan felt that Wang Dong'er's background was probably much more complicated than it appeared on the surface.

However, this has little to do with her.

Zhang Lexuan then changed the subject, saying:

"Huabin, the next competition is a seven-on-seven team event..."

After saying that, she handed the signed slip to Dai Huabin.

Dai Huabin glanced down at the slip of paper. It read "Qianling Advanced Soul Master Academy".
