After hearing Huo Wu's assessment, Qi Ling agreed. Although admitting defeat was unpleasant, knowingly forcing a fight when you know you can't win was reckless.
"Alright, since that's the case, and we're free today, let's watch other people's matches," Qi Ling said with a smile. " Yu Feng, I'm sorry, but you'll have to wait until next time to play."
"As for you," Qi Ling looked at Huo Wu, "Please pour me a cup of tea first."
Although he had Huo Wu as his maid, Qi Ling himself wasn't someone who needed to be waited on. He preferred to do everything himself, so he mostly just had Huo Wu watch the matches with him.
The same thing happened for the next few days, and surprisingly, Godwind Academy and Blazing Fire Academy adopted the same strategy, choosing to surrender when facing the Qilin Team.
Qi Ling Qi Ling was quite surprised that Feng Xiaotian would surrender. She had thought that someone with his personality would never surrender without a fight. It seemed that he had changed a lot for the sake of the team.
Moreover, Qi Ling glanced at Huo Wu, who was sitting to the side chatting with Luna. Logically speaking, wasn't Feng Xiaotian Huo Wu with Huo Wu to the point of madness? How Huo Wu he hadn't caused any trouble for Huo Wu even though she'd been here for so long?
Qi Ling simply stopped thinking about things she couldn't understand. And tomorrow, something that interested Qi Ling finally arrived: they would face off against another team from a single-attribute academy.
This time, the Qilin Team was assigned to the Thunder Team, whose strength was beyond question. Even among single-attribute academies, they were among the top teams. What was also remarkable was that they did not choose to surrender.
Whatever their reasons, since they haven't chosen to withdraw, Qi Ling has to treat them well.
More importantly, their captain, Yu Tianxin, is one of the collateral disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. He, along with Yu Tianba, whom Qi Ling defeated earlier, and the original Yu Tianheng, are all prized disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
With the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, hailed as the number one Beast Martial Soul in the world, one can imagine the fighting style of this team. As the strongest team besides Shrek and Qilin Team, Qi Ling also gave them enough attention.
" Luna, you'll be playing in tomorrow's match," Qi Ling said.
"Huh? Let Luna play? Why?" The one who asked the question was none other than Huo Wu, who was a maid. These past few days, she seemed to have completely regarded herself as a member of the Qilin Team. Not only was she the first to arrive every day, but she also didn't feel uncomfortable at all.
"Isn't Luna's Soul Power only level 37? Why send her out?" Huo Wu continued to ask Qi Ling. " Thunder Academy is not a weak team, Qi Ling, please reconsider."
Qi Ling said helplessly, "Hey Miss Huo Wu, you don't seem to be on our team, do you? Why are you so concerned about our appearance schedule?"
"I... I'm worried about Luna, isn't that okay?" Huo Wu said, hugging Luna tightly.
Tuoliya then added, "Yes, Lord Qi Ling, Thunder Team, let Dugu Yan and I go together."
It has to be said that because of her lovely appearance and gentle personality, anyone who meets her will inevitably fall in love with her.
However, because of this, it seems everyone has forgotten that Luna's Martial Soul is top-tier, far surpassing the quality of everyone present except for Qi Ling.
Now, it's about time for her to show her skills.
" Luna, what do you think?" Qi Ling asked Luna.
Luna smiled and said, "Mr. Qi Ling, please let me go. I also want to prove myself as a true Soul Master."
"Okay, then let you have a good fight today! Otherwise, after not letting you play for so long, they seem to have forgotten that you are our trump card," Qi Ling said with a smile.
"Also, since this is going to be our first appearance, it has to be spectacular! Xiao Die, Xiao Meng, you two will be on stage together tomorrow!"
Everyone was surprised to hear that Hua Yimeng and Hua Yidie were also going to perform, including Huo Wu, because she had always been curious about what skills these two twins, who had never performed before, possessed.
"Yay! Sister, it's finally our turn to play!" Hua Yidie exclaimed happily upon hearing that she could finally go on stage. "I thought we wouldn't be involved in the preliminaries!"
Hua Yimeng shook her head and said, "The fact that it has nothing to do with us just proves that things are going very smoothly, doesn't it?"
Huo Wu secretly asked Qi Ling, " Qi Ling, why are they being chosen for this match? Are the two of them a good match with Luna?"
Qi Ling laughed and said, "What? Are you trying to spy on us again?"
Huo Wu blushed slightly, but said generously, "What is it? Just tell me! They're about to go on stage anyway, you can't hide it from me. I'm just worried about Luna."
"The reason we're not letting them play is simple," Qi Ling said with a smile, "Because there are no opponents worthy of their participation."
The next day arrived quickly. Today's matches were again scheduled as the final segment of the third round, and everyone was eagerly anticipating whether Qi Ling would make another appearance against the formidable Qilin Team Thunder Team.
The Shrek Team's match ended early in the first part. When they finished packing up and arrived at the spectator area, they were surprised to find that Qi Ling was there as well.
"Big brother, aren't you playing today?" Tang San asked, quite surprised.
"No, we have a better candidate today," Qi Ling said with a smile.
Upon hearing Qi Ling's words, everyone immediately checked the members of the Qilin Team present and then discovered that Luna was among them.
"Oh? Brother Qi, does this mean Luna is finally having her first match today?" Xiao Wu said excitedly. "That's great! We can finally see just how amazing Luna is!"
"Then you'd better hold on tight, Luna's performance might just surprise you," Qi Ling said. "Besides, this match shouldn't last too long."
When it was finally the turn of the Thunder Team and the Qilin Team to play, the entire audience fell silent, their eyes filled with anticipation, as if gathering strength before unleashing their passion.
The first team to take the stage was the Thunder Team, with their captain, Yu Tianxin, leading the way. As a level 44 Power Attack System Soul Master, he possessed extremely high self-esteem, which was one of the reasons for his strength.
That's why he didn't choose to forfeit when facing the Qilin Team; instead, he planned to give it his all, hoping that a victory would secure their qualification.
The Thunder Team consists of three Power Attack System, two Agility Attack System, one Control System, and one Support System Soul Master, making them a team focused on offense, which allows them to unleash tremendous combat power.
" The Thunder Team members have all taken the stage. Now, let's welcome the long-awaited Qilin Team!" As the host's voice rang out, the audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers.
