Dragon God Team vs. Zheng Tian Team
Gu Yunxiao shook his head and smiled, saying nothing, and continued watching the battle on the Competition Platform.
The seven women also quieted down and continued watching the game.
The Yunluo Team's players weren't very strong, and they were completely defeated by the Shrek Team's clever tactics and Bei Bei's explosive performance on stage at the end.
Shrek Team won and took the points.
When their favorite Team won, the entire stadium erupted in cheers once again.
After a short break, the second round of the Round-Robin Tournament began.
"The second round of the Round-Robin Tournament will be between the Dragon God Team from Group Two and the Zheng Tian Team!" The referee looked at the match list in his hand and couldn't help but be a little surprised.
Not only was he surprised, but the audience was also surprised.
As far as they knew, the strongest teams in the second group were the Dragon God Team and the Zheng Tian Team.
Logically speaking, we shouldn't have run into each other so soon.
But it doesn't matter if we run into each other, this match will be interesting to watch.
"Hehe, we can see the Dragon God Team on stage again!"
"I wonder if their captain, Gu Yunxiao, will play. He probably will, since their opponent is the formidable Zheng Tian Team."
"Who cares? The more intense the fight, the better!"
"I've placed bets on both sides: 20,000 Gold Soul Coin for the Dragon God Team and 50,000 Gold Soul Coin for the Zheng Tian Team."
"..."
The audience was buzzing with excitement, eagerly anticipating the match.
"Both team captains, please come to the stage to draw lots," the referee's voice announced.
In the rest area, Gu Yunxiao and another figure stood up almost simultaneously, becoming the focus of the entire Star Luo Plaza.
The two walked towards the Competition Platform, their expressions both calm.
"Dream, is this my brother-in-law? He's almost more handsome than me." In the rest area of Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy Team, Xiao Hongchen chuckled and teased.
Upon hearing this, the others raised an eyebrow, appearing calm but actually listening intently.
"Brother, what are you saying!"
Meng Hongchen blushed, and said in shame and indignation, "I only had a meal with Yunxiao, there was absolutely nothing... that didn't happen!"
"Oh my, you don't look like anything's wrong. I can tell something's happened."
"Elder brother!"
"Hehe, I'm just teasing you. I want to see what this kid is capable of. Not just anyone can be my brother-in-law, Xiao Hongchen."
Xiao Hongchen stared intently at Gu Yunxiao's retreating figure.
"... Brother, actually you're not only not as good-looking as Yunxiao, you're also not as tall as Yunxiao," Meng Hongchen suddenly said.
That really hurt!
Xiao Hongchen's face darkened.
Meng Hongchen covered her mouth and chuckled, ignoring Xiao Hongchen and staring at Gu Yunxiao's figure with a bright light in her eyes.
Elder Ma and Ma Rulong, who were standing nearby, were all suppressing their laughter.
As the saying goes, lies don't hurt, but the truth is the sharpest knife.
Meng Hongchen's knife pierced Xiao Hongchen's heart.
Meanwhile, the draw had already begun on the Competition Platform, and several colorful orbs of light were scattered around Gu Yunxiao and Ye Wuqing.
Both of them drew lots casually, as if it were a natural process.
"Dragon God Team vs. Zheng Tian Team, a team competition, both Team please prepare!"
The stadium erupted in cheers after the referee's whistle blew.
Team competition!
This is much more entertaining than individual competitions and the Two-Two-Three Battle Format.
Especially given that both Team are quite strong, who knows what kind of exciting team battle will unfold?
Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Gu Yunxiao and Ye Wuqing led their respective Team onto the Competition Platform, facing off against each other.
Xiao Xiao did not play for the Dragon God Team.
Round-Robin Tournament began, Gu Yunxiao would cover the bottom, and the seven people would take turns resting in the rest area, starting with Xiao Xiao, who had the weakest cultivation.
"They're on! They're on! It's Gu Yunxiao!"
"Finally, we'll get to see him make a move. I wonder just how strong this captain of the Dragon God Team really is?"
"There's definitely Soul King among them, but I wonder if he's stronger than Ye Wuqing Ye Wuqing, considering he's much younger."
Who do you think will win this match?
"..."
The level of attention everyone was paying to this match was even more exaggerated than the previous two matches of the Shrek Team, with everyone showing anticipation.
Not only the spectators, but also the Team in the rest area were watching intently.
They know quite a bit about the Zheng Tian Team.
Only the Dragon God Team, especially their captain Gu Yunxiao, had very limited information.
"The academy's decision to conceal Gu Yunxiao's strength was undoubtedly the right one." Wang Yan secretly rejoiced as he observed the reactions of those around him.
Although some high-ranking members of major powers know some of Gu Yunxiao's situation, most high-level Soul Master Academy are still unaware of it.
We're all competitors, and nobody wants their opponent to know more about them.
It's similar to the saying, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"Please share your names!"
"That's what the referee said."
"Zheng Tian Team, Ye Wuqing." Ye Wuqing lives up to his name, appearing truly ruthless, but in reality, his eyes are extremely arrogant.
"Zheng Tian Team, Tang Xiaolei." Tang Xiaolei has a tall and upright figure, but his muscles are not particularly muscular.
"Zheng Tian Team, Yu Mengdi," the blonde, golden-eyed woman said, her gaze occasionally falling on Gu Yunxiao.
"Zheng Tian Team..."
Then, the other four people gave their names.
Yan'er, Blood Wolf, Shangguan Can, Yang Yifan.
"Dragon God Team, Gu Yunxiao."
Gu Yunxiao's expression remained calm, and his voice was composed.
However, his gaze lingered on Yu Mengdi for a moment, as if he were thinking about something.
Yu Mengdi also noticed this glance.
"He actually looked at me..." Yu Mengdi was taken aback, feeling inexplicably happy, but she still pretended to be aloof.
You can fake your expression, but you can't fake your eyes.
Her gaze towards Gu Yunxiao subtly changed, and she began to steal glances at him more and more frequently.
"Dragon God Team, Jiang Nannan," Jiang Nannan announced her name.
"Dragon God Team: Nan Qiuqiu, Tang Ya, Wang Dong'er, Ning Tian, and Wu Feng." The five members of the team, including Nan Qiuqiu, announced their names without any fear in their eyes.
With Gu Yunxiao around, they were very confident.
"Both sides step back."
The referee gestured for both Team to retreat, and once they were in their designated positions, he immediately announced, "The match begins!"
The referee then immediately disappeared.
"Martial Soul Possession!"
Apart from Gu Yunxiao, the two Team almost immediately Martial Soul Possession, releasing different fluctuations of Soul Power with varying levels of intensity.
Ye Wuqing's Martial Soul is the Golden Leaf, a level 58 Power Attack System Battle Soul King, with Soul Ring Configuration.
Tang Xiaolei's Martial Soul is the Purple Splendor Bow, a level 52 Power Attack System Battle Soul King, with Soul Ring Configuration, and no Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
Yu Mengdi's Martial Soul is Two-Winged Angel, a level 53 Power Attack System Battle Soul King, with Soul Ring Configuration of two yellow, two purple, and one black.
The other four were Soul Ancestor Masters, all with standard Soul Ring Configuration.
On the Dragon God Team's side, everyone has already witnessed the Martial Soul of Jiang Nannan and the other six members, Nan Qiuqiu and Wang Dong'er's Soul Ring Configuration are still as amazing as ever.
"Gu Yunxiao doesn't use his Martial Soul? So confident!"
"I actually hope he uses his Martial Soul. If he can contend with the Zheng Tian Team without using his Martial Soul, then his strength must be terrifying!"
