Dai Huabin is the young master of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
As a fellow member of the Star Luo Empire, and also living near Star Luo City, he was naturally aware of the Cao Clan's terrifying strength.
Even his father, White Tiger Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger, and his elder brother Dai Yueheng, treated Cao Yu with utmost respect, let alone him.
Moreover, Cao Yu's act of deposing two princes had truly startled him, and from that moment on, he knew that Cao Yu was not someone to be trifled with.
Cao Yu nodded in response.
Seeing this, Dai Huabin didn't dare to say anything more, smiled slightly, and walked towards Yan Shaozhe.
Watching his retreating figure, Cao Yu couldn't help but think to himself.
"This guy used to bully Yuhao a lot when they were kids, and he almost crippled Huo Yun'er."
"This boy has the makings of a werewolf!"
If Yuhao hadn't been eliminated in the round of 16 yesterday, he might have actually fought Dai Huabin today.
The next second, a sound interrupted his thoughts.
" Dai Huabin's team, number one in the draw." After Yan Shaozhe finished drawing lots, Du Weilun read them out.
On his way back to his team, Dai Huabin smiled respectfully at Cao Yu again before leaving.
This world only respects the strong.
The weak are treated with indifference.
This seems to be an ironclad rule in every world, including Cao Yu's original world, which is why he deeply understands its principles.
Therefore, he doesn't become complacent because of others' respect for him; he just focuses on doing his job well.
In the semifinals, Cao Yu and his two teammates faced opponents who seemed very confident.
" Zhou Sichen, Class 10, a master of Power Attack System Battle Soul Master."
"Class 10, Freshmen, Long Xiangyue, Agility Attack System Battle Soul Master."
"Class 10, Freshmen, Cao Jinxuan, Control System Battle Soul Master."
"The competition begins." After both sides introduced themselves, the semi-final officially began with an announcement from the proctor.
Cao Yu and his two companions remained stationary, releasing their Martial Soul without moving, allowing the three opponents to charge towards them.
The next second, the three people gradually formed a straight line from their scattered points.
It seems to be imitating the fighting style of the previous Xie Huanyue team.
Zhou Sichen, a Power Attack System Battle Soul Master, led the way, while the other two hid behind him.
A long, serpentine formation, like a sharp sword, surged forward with unstoppable force.
Zhou Sichen was holding a book, and two Hundred-Year Soul Ring rose from beneath his feet.
As the pages flipped rapidly, two enormous creatures suddenly sprang out of the book.
This is his special Tool Martial Soul Treasure Tome.
His Soul Skill transformed into two enormous creatures, a stinky bear and a fierce tiger.
"Goodness, this could be a whole episode of Boonie Bears!"
Cao Yu suddenly felt that this guy named Zhou Sichen had the potential to make animated films.
Meanwhile, Cao Jinxuan, Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master who had been hiding behind him, also rushed out. His Martial Soul summoned a large white bell, which truly lived up to its name as the Golden Bell Shield, but it was a pity that it was white.
The props team needs more money to change the special effects.
Cao Jinxuan was a relative of Cao Yu, but he had never heard of him in the family.
I don't know where he's from.
As for Long Xiangyue at the end, he was holding a boomerang, and he looked quite cool.
With the help of the three opponents, plus the help of the stinky bear and the fierce tiger, Cao Yu and his companions seemed to be facing five opponents at this moment.
Cao Wei finally understood why they, despite not being particularly strong, had managed to advance to the quarterfinals.
They're playing a summoner strategy and using sheer numbers; it's utterly unethical.
Those watching from the high platform seemed to be holding their breath for Cao Yu and his team.
Seeing that Cao Yu and his group hadn't made a move yet, they all assumed they were about to lose.
But the next second shocked everyone.
"Smack!"
The stinky bear and the fierce tiger were directly scattered by Cao Yu's " Great Might Heavenly Dragon Dharma Manifestation Fist ".
Their essence was merely the manifestation of Zhou Sichen's Soul Power; they had no physical form and therefore could not withstand Cao Yu's hammer blows.
If the two people were at the same level, it might be a bit difficult, but it's still achievable.
Despite seemingly having a larger number of people, Zhou Sichen's side was completely defeated by Cao Yu and his two companions in less than a minute.
" Wang Dong's team, another victory!" As the proctor shouted again, a burst of enthusiastic cheers erupted from the platform.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there were still many familiar faces on the platform, some of whom were freshmen who were no longer able to participate in the competition.
For example, Cao Yu's beautiful classmate Luo Yan, and Huo Yuhao and his friends.
"Finally, we've made it to the finals!" Zhou Yi looked at the three people below the stage, feeling even more gratified.
It made everyone in the class proud.
Luo Yan, who was standing to the side, was a little disappointed that she couldn't fight alongside Cao Yu, but she was still very happy to see that Brother Yu was able to advance to the finals.
"As expected of Brother Yu, he's really amazing." Luo Yan stared intently at Cao Yu's face, unwilling to look away.
Huo Yuhao on the other side was equally excited. As expected of his older brother, his strength was exceptional.
Cao Yu and his group did not linger, but as soon as they stepped out of the assessment area...
There were already quite a few freshmen from Class 1 waiting at the door, and then a group of people suddenly rushed up and lifted him high.
Before he could react, they threw him upwards with all their might. Cao Yu flew into the air and then fell back down, where he was caught by the others.
" Brother Yu is the strongest!"
" Brother Yu's strength is overwhelming!"
Cao Yu suddenly felt that some people were being mischievous, and his buttocks were being touched several times.
This resulted in a significant loss of profit...
I didn't see who it was.
"Alright, alright, put me down already. This is nothing! You're already so happy before we even won the championship."
Most of the students here are female, and they reluctantly put Cao Yu down.
As for Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao?
Unfortunately, these female trainees only like Brother Yu.
"We can celebrate like this after Brother Yu wins the championship," a few girls said, pouting.
Wang Dong said with some resentment, "Are you treating people differently?"
"No, little brother Wang Dong, I'll definitely do it next time!"
"Be good, listen to me and don't make a fuss," Luo Yan and several female students said in unison.
Wang Dong pointed at them, pretended to be angry, snorted, and then ignored them.
Xiao Xiao, meanwhile, affectionately clung to Cao Yu's arm, looking at her "love rivals" with a smug expression.
That arrogant look in his eyes seemed to say, "See? Brother Yu is mine, and none of you can take him from me."
This moment seemed to ignite a fierce battle.
The female students all turned their anger towards Xiao Xiao.
Especially Luo Yan, who didn't hold back at all and went straight up to hug Cao Yu's other arm.
Xiao Xiao glared at Cao Yu a few times.
Seeing his troubled expression, she then turned her gaze to Luo Yan.
Their eyes met, a spark ignited with the smell of gunpowder.
Cao Yu was suddenly at a loss; Luo Yan refused to let go, and Xiao Xiao was also a little angry.
Is this what they call Asura "?
He actually experienced it first.
My head hurts.
