Dai Mubai gritted his teeth and said, "Dai Weisi, how can you say it's been a long time? Weren't you very eager for me to die?"
At this point, the spectators finally noticed that Dai Weisi and Dai Mubai looked very similar. Could they be brothers?
Tang San also noticed the other person on the opposing side, who had a head of golden hair draped over his shoulders and a lazy expression on his face. His appearance was at least seventy percent similar to Dai Mubai's, and he was even a bit taller than Dai Mubai.
Right behind him walked a tall young woman, almost as tall as Dai Weisi. This young woman looked extremely similar to someone Tang San had seen before: Zhu Zhuqing, the fiancée Dai Mubai had mentioned.
Dai Weisi said with some surprise, "Well, well, our playboy has turned over a new leaf, but that girl Zhu Zhuqing isn't with you. It seems she's still sensible and knows she can't stand against us."
"Whether Zhu Zhuqing is with me or not, what business is it of yours?" Dai Mubai loathed this. Zhu Zhuqing not being with him was already a tragedy, and he hadn't expected it to be brought up.
The referee walked to the center of the two teams. "Prepare for the match. You may release your martial souls. The rules of the match are as before; the losers will be directly eliminated, and the winners will advance to the top six. The Shrek Advanced Soul Master Academy Team versus the Star Luo Royal Advanced Soul Master Academy. Get ready."
The gazes of Dai Mubai, Dai Weisi, and Zhu Zhuyun collided fiercely in midair. This was the first stop of Dai Mubai's confrontation with fate.
As expected of a seeded team from the Star Luo Empire, apart from Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun, whose soul power both exceeded Level 46, the soul power of the other five members was also above Level 40.
Aside from the Spirit Hall Academy and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team, which had shocked the entire audience, they were currently the team with the most Level 40 soul masters among the entering squads. Moreover, the strength of Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun was exceptionally formidable, and they even possessed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.
What shocked Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun wasn't Dai Mubai's four soul rings of two yellows and two purples, but Tang San's soul ring configuration of two yellows, one purple, and one black.
Whether it was because they had consumed some kind of herb that devoured talent, most of the members of Shrek Academy had actually reached Level 40 Soul Ancestor. Even those who hadn't reached Level 40 had attained the level of high-tier Soul Elders at Level 39.
"Start." With the referee's command, such a high-profile competition finally commenced.
However, Zhu Zhuqing had also arrived at the match venue to witness this decisive battle of Dai Mubai's fate. She hoped Dai Mubai could win the match, as this was, after all, the first step in her own battle.
Dai Weisi took the lead, an overbearing aura surging forth as he unleashed the White Tiger Vajra Transformation. He wanted to suppress Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, and Lin Ying all by himself.
Although his soul power was the strongest in the entire arena, his choice at this moment was also correct because his martial soul's aura was far more overbearing than Dai Mubai's. As Dai Weisi charged forward, Zhu Zhuyun also rushed behind him straight toward Tang San.
Because the talent and that black soul ring displayed by Tang San had already made him the biggest threat in the eyes of the Star Luo Empire Team, they wanted to eliminate him at the very first opportunity.
Tang San acted as if he hadn't seen Zhu Zhuyun's arrival. Faced with Zhu Zhuyun's continuous fierce attacks, he merely relied on the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to evade them. Yet Tang San couldn't keep dodging like this forever; at this crucial moment, the ultimate simpering sycophant Li Pei stepped out to block the attack directed at Tang San.
Yet the gap in soul power between Li Pei and Zhu Zhuyun was simply too vast. Even with the assistance of Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, because of the difference of a full major rank, Li Pei still couldn't defeat her.
On the other hand, Dai Weisi, who was charging with full dominance toward the center of Shrek Academy, was met not by Dai Mubai, but by Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu's eyes radiated a pink light-this was her second spirit skill, Charm. Dai Weisi snorted coldly, bolstering his own mental strength to ignore Xiao Wu's charm skill. Leaving Xiao Wu behind, Dai Weisi accelerated his body, his target still being Dai Mubai.
Watching Dai Weisi dodge past, Xiao Wu felt extremely disgruntled. Was Sister Xiao Wu really so unworthy of your attention? She directly used the Teleportation spirit skill to appear right in front of Dai Weisi, employing her fourth spirit skill, the Invincible Golden Body, to slam directly into Dai Weisi's body.
Yet Dai Weisi didn't panic in the least, directly employing the White Tiger Protection Barrier and the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, attempting to rely on his advantage in soul power to bounce Xiao Wu away. However, facing Xiao Wu's fourth spirit skill, the Invincible Golden Body, it had utterly no effect, and Xiao Wu directly wrapped herself tightly around Dai Weisi's body.
Her long hair coiled around Dai Weisi's neck as Xiao Wu slipped around to his back. Because the time limit for the Invincible Golden Body had expired, Dai Weisi's formidable soul power caused Xiao Wu to black out, directly blasting her out of the arena bounds.
Watching Xiao Wu leave the field, Tang San was filled with intense fury. This Dai Weisi actually dared to harm his beloved Xiao Wu; he simply deserved to die. Yet it seemed he still had some history with Dai Mubai. If he helped Dai Mubai kill him, would the Star Luo Empire...?
Although Xiao Wu was out of the match, the plan still had to proceed. "Seven Monsters Riot," a steady voice roared from Tang San's lips. He had been accumulating his power all along, thrusting his left fist downward to slam a blue-silver radiance into the ground.
Tang San's fourth spirit skill, the mutating ability of the Blue Silver Cage, triggered the Blue Silver Thorn Array. Flames of the Phoenix and Phoenix Wings Soaring, two major spirit skills, manifested from Ma Hongjun, his plump body gliding through the air enveloped in flames. The Blue Silver Thorn Array also vanished the exact instant Ma Hongjun was about to plummet, and the spot where Ma Hongjun landed happened to be right where Dai Weisi and the others were clustered.
The powerful fiery impact threw Dai Weisi and the others into chaos, and at that moment, Dai Mubai's fourth spirit skill, the White Tiger Meteor Shower, descended from the skies.
Yet this was far from over; every single offensive spirit skill capable of being used by Shrek Academy rained down upon the currently stunned seven members of the Star Luo Empire.
Dai Mubai lunged at Dai Weisi, his final heavy claw strike sending Dai Weisi flying, the sound of Dai Weisi's bones shattering echoing across the entire arena. Yet, even under such an assault, someone still managed to survive-and that person was Zhu Zhuyun.
Regardless of the current condition of the Shrek Seven Devils, there were still seven people standing on the competition stage, whereas only she remained for the Star Luo Royal Academy. Yet Zhu Zhuyun had no intention of giving up, because if she lost at this moment, it meant Dai Mubai had defeated Dai Weisi.
If Dai Mubai truly won, that would spell real trouble. After all, Dai Mubai's nominal fiancée was her younger sister, Zhu Zhuqing. And the current Zhu Zhuqing had grown incomparably powerful; if a Dai Mubai who had won against them joined forces with the formidable Zhu Zhuqing, defeat was certain for them.
Yet now, a six-versus-one held no suspense. Still, Zhu Zhuyun fiercely lunged toward the three people in front of her, but she stopped dead after charging less than five meters because she was bound by blood-red vines of Blue Silver Grass, rendering her unable to move.
Just like that, the Star Luo Royal Team was defeated, but their true ending had only just begun.
Late on the night following the conclusion of the match, Dai Weisi had no idea what kind of attack he suffered; his entire body felt drained of strength as he slumped limply on his bed, though he was not yet dead.
