Dear Audience, Did You Find a Little Elation in This Performance?

"First match of the individual elimination round: Shrek Academy wins!"

The referee's booming announcement rang across the arena in Star Luo Plaza.

Ma Yingjun, who had fallen near the edge of the platform, rubbed his dazed head and trudged back to the contestants' seats. He reported bitterly to his Captain, "Boss, he's definitely a Psychic Soul Master. He fights exactly like Huo Yuhao. He's so strange I can't find a single opening. There's no way to counter him."

The Yunluo Academy Captain's face grew grave. He took a deep breath and said, "Shang Yue, you're up! Finish it quickly. Don't let him get in your head."

"Can't do that." Huo Xiaohei grinned brazenly, a ruby gleam shifting in his eyes. "I, Huo Xiaohei, have never been weaker than anyone!"

In the Shrek spectator section, Huo Yuhao watched his clone's wild antics onstage. His temples throbbed, and his hands quietly curled into fists.

Ning Tian hurriedly tugged his sleeve and tried to soothe him, her voice stiff. "Yuhao, calm down. Don't be angry..."

"It's fine," Huo Yuhao said without expression.
