The preliminary rounds of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament had ended.
The teams that advanced to the promotion rounds were:
First: Heaven Dou Academy: 27 battles, 27 victories.
Second: Godwind Academy: 27 battles, 26 victories and 1 defeat. They had forfeited when facing Heaven Dou Academy's second team.
Third: Thunderclap Academy: 27 battles, 25 victories and 2 defeats.
Fourth: Shrek Academy: 27 battles, 24 victories and 3 defeats.
Fifth: Skywater Academy: 27 battles, 23 victories and 4 defeats.
"Shrek Academy advanced without immortal herbs? How is that possible?" Lin Ya stared blankly at the list of advancing teams.

Come to think of it, it was his own fault.
Shrek Academy was far weaker than in the original timeline, but the problem was that the other academies had declined by a lot as well.
Skywater Academy: Shui Binger and Shui Yue'er had been poached by him, leaving only Xue Wu and Yu Hairou, two Soul Ancestors.
Blazing Fire Academy had it even worse. Both Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu, their two main forces, had been poached by him. The entire academy had only one Soul Ancestor, so naturally they could not compare to Dai Mubai, who had a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

The promotion rounds were still held at the Royal Hunting Grounds, and the participating teams were still those same teams from five years ago.
The only difference was that Botanical Academy had somehow failed
