The seven members of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy Second Team entered to flowers, music, applause, and lights, stealing the spotlight for a time.

Even their attire was extravagantly luxurious—specially designed and tailored high-end clothing that maintained a unified style while highlighting each individual's traits.

Walking at the front was a tall, slender young man, his blond hair impeccably groomed.

He wore a finely tailored blue fitted uniform decorated with white stars, along with a red-and-white cape.

When the Blond Youth looked at Shui Bing'er and the others, it was as though he were inspecting his own servants.

"So this is the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy Second Team..." Yu Hairou curled her lip at the dazzling golden display. "Why do they look less like they're here to compete and more like they're here to walk the red carpet?"

Shui Yue'er deeply agreed. "Exactly. Spotlights, symphonic music, roses... Are they here to fight or enter a beauty pageant?"

"They're nobles, after all. They care about appearances," Xue Wu said blandly. "For nobles, movements must be quick and poses must be handsome."

The moment they saw Shui Bing'er and the others, greed gleamed in the eyes of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy Second Team members.

"Those are from Skywater Academy?"

The speaker was a sturdy young man whose carefully styled hair looked exceptionally fluffy.

"Damn it, seven absolute beauties. Even all the women I've played with put together can't compare!"

The tall thin guy beside him chimed in, "I heard Skywater Academy takes anyone they can get, even commoners. No matter how pretty they are, they're still just commoners."

As he spoke, the tall, thin guy shouted toward Skywater Academy, "You're all so beautiful, so why come compete? Out here in the wind and sun, how exhausting. If you're short on money, big brother has plenty. I can give it to you bit by bit."

After saying that, he started chuckling to himself.

The Blond Youth at the front slowly strolled over, drawing a few steps closer to Shui Bing'er and the others.

Even his walking posture was meticulously refined, from his bearing to the distance of every step.

"Ladies," the Blond Youth began, "what's so good about staying at a commoner academy? What future could you possibly have in a place like that? Why not let This Young Master provide for all your food, clothing, and daily needs? Wealth and glory are far better than suffering here, aren't they?"

The people behind him laughed along, their laughter frivolous as they jeered, "The captain has good taste."

After speaking, the Blond Youth's gaze fell openly upon Shui Bing'er. "You really are lovely. Skin like ice and bones like jade must have been invented to describe someone like you. How about this? Don't leave after the match. This Young Master can get you all official positions in the Heaven Dou Empire, so you won't have to bleed and cry in a tournament arena. What do you say?"

Shui Bing'er and the others could not even be bothered to respond. They merely looked at the host, wondering why this fool had not announced the start of the match yet.

What Shui Bing'er and the others did not know was that the host was only human. He had to wait for these spoiled young masters to finish showing off before announcing the match, or he would offend them.

Seeing Shui Bing'er's questioning gaze turn toward him, the host suddenly felt a chill run through his heart and could only announce, "Contestants, take your positions!"

When the Blond Youth and the others saw that Skywater Academy was ignoring them, they immediately flew into a rage.

"Hmph! Just wait and see how you die!"

The Blond Youth threw down that threat, and both sides released their Martial Souls.

Hehe, commoners. Let me show you my magnificent Martial Soul and superior rank.

After all, how many resources could commoners possibly have...

The Blond Youth was thinking this when, in the next instant, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!

Across from them stood twenty-four Soul Rings in perfect uniformity: two yellow and two purple each!

Six people, six Soul Ancestors.

The audience erupted.

"They're all Soul Ancestors? Where did Skywater Academy find so many geniuses?"

"They all look like they're only twenty! How has Skywater Academy produced so many monsters in recent years?"

"If even the team members are this impressive, then the captain..."

Everyone's eyes turned to Shui Bing'er, then they froze.

Because Shui Bing'er had not released her Martial Soul at all.

What an arrogant move!

In the VIP section, Xue Ye could not help but smile, nearly laughing aloud.

These were the talents of his Heaven Dou Empire!

Beside Xue Ye sat Salas, the Platinum Bishop of Spirit Hall. For the moment, however, his heart remained completely calm.

They were merely Soul Ancestors. Spirit Hall's three...

Thinking this, Salas glanced at Shui Bing'er again.

For some reason, this unassuming captain of the Skywater Team always made him feel that something was off.

Regardless of how everyone else reacted, the Blond Youth and his companions had turned livid.

Everyone on the other side was a Soul Ancestor. How were they supposed to fight this?!

But the match had to begin eventually. Xue Wu and the others were utterly speechless. They had never imagined that after those three Shrek beetles, they would encounter such bizarre people again!

Thus, the moment the referee announced the start, everyone except Shui Bing'er charged forward.

The tall, thin guy no longer dared to act arrogant. Trembling, he looked at the Blond Youth, his gaze conveying only one meaning: "Captain, what do we do now?"

The Blond Youth gritted his teeth and swiftly glanced at Shui Bing'er. After confirming that she was merely standing there without any intention of acting, he decisively said:

"Don't be afraid. Look, their captain isn't making a move, and their support Spirit Master has charged at us. What a joke. A support Spirit Master dares to confront us head-on?"

"So no matter what, it's seven against five in a team battle. The advantage is ours! Charge!"

With that, the Blond Youth was the first to attack Xue Wu!

His subordinates charged after him as well!

Xue Wu backhanded him with a slap!

Frost Soul Palm!

The Blond Youth, sent flying, felt his head buzzing.

No, sister, aren't you a support type? You slapped a power-attack type like me flying? Is that okay? That is not okay.

After more than a year of training, coupled with their advancement to Soul Ancestors, Xue Wu and the others had already mastered Frost Soul Palm to the point where they could use it as they pleased. Any casual slap could unleash the power of Frost Soul Palm.

And so, every member of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy Second Team was slapped senseless, utterly aggrieved as they suffered enormous blows to both body and mind.

The Blond Youth even cried, "Please, please stop! I... I'll give you a noble title, I'll give you a noble title, okay? I'll do anything for you, even play the flute! Please! I'll willingly do anything!"

"Do you want me to eat shit? I'll eat your shit!"

But Xue Wu and the others showed no mercy, adding several more slaps as punishment before sending them flying out of the arena with one final slap.

"No way? One palm strike?"

"What was that? Did they activate their Soul Rings? I didn't see them activate their Soul Rings!"

"They slapped people flying without using Soul Skills? Without Soul Skills? Even support Spirit Masters can do that? What the hell?"

"A Self-Created Soul Skill? A Self-Created Soul Skill this powerful?"

The audience was profoundly shocked.

The host was stunned as well, but he still maintained his professionalism and announced, "The Skywater Academy representative team wins!"

Deafening applause and cheers erupted from the audience. Everyone was either delighted or wary.

Within the Blue Tyrant Team, Tang San trembled with rage from head to toe.

Although the Asura God had been slain by Meng Chen, Tang San had still seized the chance to escape.

Now, seeing Skywater Academy's members display such overwhelming power again, he was so furious that he could not speak, consumed by rage!!!

Xiao Wu softly consoled him, "Third Brother... don't be angry. We'll teach them a harsh lesson later."

"You don't understand!"

Tang San roared.

Xiao Wu's face turned deathly pale.

Liu Erlong stood at the doorway, looking at Tang San and Xiao Wu inside the room.

"Little San, what's wrong?"

Liu Erlong looked at Tang San and asked in confusion.

When Liu Erlong questioned him, Tang San decided in his fury to stop concealing the news of Yu Xiao Gang's death. "Teacher Erlong... Teacher is dead. They killed him!"

"What?!"

The news struck like a bolt from the blue.

Liu Erlong muttered, "What you said... is it true?"

Tang San dropped to his knees. "I'm sorry, Teacher Erlong. I was only afraid you would be heartbroken, so I kept it from you!"

Afterward, Tang San told her how Yu Xiao Gang had died.

Liu Erlong listened in a daze.

She had always thought Yu Xiao Gang was merely avoiding her. She had never expected to hear news of his death instead.

Liu Erlong was initially blank-faced, then became utterly furious!

She was so enraged that she even activated Martial Soul Possession!

Everything in the lounge was hurled into the air! The sounds of bottles and jars shattering rang out continuously, clattering everywhere!

"Skywater... Academy!"
