Upon hearing Qi Ling and Luna's Huo Wu, Qi Ling suddenly became even more perfect in her eyes. It turned out that he was not only a battle maniac, but also such an excellent leader.
Dugu Yan threw herself at Qi Ling, excitedly saying, "Darling, you're absolutely right! I love you so much! Let's have a baby right now!"
"Stop messing around, stop messing around, you!" Qi Ling helplessly pulled Dugu Yan off her. This girl was becoming less and less Divine Wind in front of her, even though she was usually very aloof in public.
"What I just said wasn't just for Luna. All of you need to remember that the outcome of the match is far less important than each and every one of you! And if you get injured, you must tell me immediately, understand?"
"Understood!" everyone in the Qilin Team said, their hearts filled with emotion and a sense of belonging. Sure enough, as long as Qi Ling was there, this team would have a strong sense of unity!
"Let's head back now. Treating Luna's injuries is the priority. As for the battle information, someone from the academy will let us know," Qi Ling said finally. " Huo Wu, what's next...?"
"Huh? I don't want to have your baby..." Huo Wu said Huo Wu, lost in thought.
Qi Ling: "..."
Huo Wu: "..."
"Ugh! How embarrassing!" Huo Wu yelled, then ran away as fast as she could.
The matches that followed went very smoothly, with both Shrek and Qilin Team continuing their winning streaks. Discussions about the two teams grew increasingly frequent, and some even felt that this year would be the year the Heaven Dou Empire had the best chance of winning.
As for other strong teams such as Skywater, Blazing Fire, and Divine Wind, they also achieved good results. Apart from having their own wins and losses against each other, they all won against other teams.
Surprisingly, Elephant Armor Academy and Thunder Academy, both single-attribute academies, were eliminated from the top tier early on.
It's understandable that Elephant Armor Academy would do this, since a team like theirs is easy to target. But the fact that Thunder Academy would do this is truly surprising.
It is speculated that the Thunder Team suffered a major setback during their match against Luna, which led to their poor performance and even left their captain with psychological trauma.
Today, all the preliminary rounds have been completed in twenty-five rounds, with only two days of matches remaining. Coincidentally, the Qilin Team's opponents on these two days will be Skywater Academy and Shrek Academy, respectively.
After today's draw results, the opponent of the Qilin Team has also been determined. It is the last single-attribute academy, Skywater Academy.
Speaking of the Skywater Academy, it's quite an interesting academy, because they seem to have been holding back their strength all along; at least Qi Ling has never seen their captain make an appearance.
Skywater Academy, despite not having its full roster, achieved a record of 24 wins and 1 loss. They not only defeated all other single-attribute academies but also nearly defeated Shrek. In the end, it was Zhu Zhuqing who turned the tide and maintained their winning streak.
The reason why Skywater Academy is so strong is not only because they have versatile tactics, but also because of their outstanding strength. In Qi Ling's memory, their current strength far surpasses that of before.
Not only do they have four Soul Ancestor, two of whom have reached level 43, but even so, their captain has not yet appeared. It seems that they are the strongest team besides the Qilin Team and Shrek.
Just after the referee announced the match lineup, Xue Wu, the vice-captain of the Skywater Academy, suddenly walked onto the stage and addressed the audience, saying, "Everyone, please wait a moment."
The teams that were originally planning to leave stopped in surprise at Xue Wu's sudden action. Many of them thought about their opponents tomorrow and assumed that what she wanted to say was related to the Qilin Team.
Sure enough, Xue Wu continued, "Everyone, tomorrow's match will be between our Skywater Academy and the Qilin Team. To be honest, the Qilin Team is probably the strongest team in everyone's eyes right now, and its captain Qi Ling, should also be considered the number one player."
"We know our chances of winning against such a team are slim, but we still want to experience the Qilin Team's prowess firsthand! So in tomorrow's match, Skywater Academy will field all of our key players and be in top form to face the Qilin Team."
"The reason we're doing this is for only one purpose: we hope that Captain Qi Ling can play in tomorrow's match. Please don't let us down."
Everyone was startled by Xue Wu's words and couldn't help but look in the direction of the Qilin Team, because Xue Wu's words were undoubtedly a challenge to Qi Ling, which was the first time anyone had dared to do such a thing.
Meanwhile, everyone was waiting for Qi Ling Qi Ling's response, wanting to see if she would grant the wishes of this group of beauties.
Qi Ling smiled slightly, walked out of the lounge, and shouted loudly, "Okay! See you tomorrow!"
The audience erupted in cheers, for tomorrow they would be witnessing a spectacular match, and what they loved most was this kind of intense, action-packed battle.
On one side is the undefeated legend Qi Ling, and on the other is the Skywater Academy, which has used every means possible. Who will ultimately emerge victorious? People can't help but wish that time would pass quickly and that tomorrow would come soon.
Having agreed to appear tomorrow, Qi Ling led the Qilin Team away. Just as they reached the exit, Huo Wu from the Blazing Fire Academy suddenly chased after them.
" Qi Ling, wait!" Huo Wu called out to Qi Ling, "You'll be personally participating in your match tomorrow, is that true?"
"Yes, I already promised them, I can't go back on my word," Qi Ling said matter-of-factly.
"Then you must be careful, Qi Ling. Shui Bing'er, the captain of the Skywater Academy, is no ordinary person. She is the undisputed number one genius in our single-attribute academy!" Huo Wu said.
"Oh? The number one genius? That's amazing!" Qi Ling exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, that's right. She's only seventeen years old this year, but her Soul Power Level has already reached level forty-seven, which is the highest among everyone. Moreover, her Martial Soul, the Ice Crystal Phoenix, is a very special Beast Martial Soul. You must be careful!" Huo Wu said.
Qi Ling was astonished. Shui Bing'er's Soul Power Level was actually as high as level 47? This was not only higher than her own, but also surpassed Dugu Yan and Tuoliya. She could be considered the number one Soul Power user in the world.
It seems that Skywater Academy is indeed quite different now; I need to be careful.
