Zhongli Wu sat in the audience, watching the Spirit Contract Team with a gloomy expression.

His heart felt like it was bleeding. Behind every Evil Soul Master was an immense investment of resources and effort, and now they were all falling. It was as if all those efforts had vanished in vain.

Zhongli Wu was burning with rage and secretly vowed, "The moment our Holy Spirit Cult's grand plan, carried out by the Holy Emperor's decree, begins, I will not let the Spirit Contract Pagoda go!"

However, this also raised a question in Zhongli Wu's mind: why did their Holy Spirit Team's captain, the Evil Eye Holy Son selected by the Holy Spirit Cult in recent years, refuse to admit defeat?

For their plan, whether they win or lose this tournament is irrelevant. As long as the plan begins, the continent will be theirs. Why bother about winning a tournament?

These members of the Holy Spirit Team are all promising talents of their Holy Spirit Cult, especially Yan Feng, who is currently on the field. Yan Feng is Yan Feng's personal disciple and also holds the position of Holy Son.

It can't be that the Evil Eye Holy Son has a grudge against the Spirit Contract Pagoda, so regardless of the sacrifices involved, the competition must continue until he can take the stage, right?

With such resentment, he should have chosen to play in the first three matches; why would he wait until the very end?

However, perhaps because Zhongli Wu was used to being crazy, he forgot something important.

That is, without proper guidance, people are capable of doing anything irrational to satisfy their resentment.

As Yan Feng's Bone Dragon Martial Soul was torn to pieces by Gu Qiuxi, Zheng Zhan declared Gu Qiuxi the victor.

Gu Qiuxi smiled and waved to the audience, then walked to her seat, indicating that she was conceding defeat in the next round and handing over the stage for the final individual competition to Wang Dong'er.

Wang Dong'er walked onto the field with steady and composed steps, each step carrying a firm strength, and her appearance immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Her long, flowing, light blue wavy hair swayed gently with her steps, casting dreamlike shadows, while her light blue pupils shone with a firm and calm light.

Although she was only fifteen, whether it was because she had been caressed by Xu or because she had drunk a lot of papaya milk, her figure already showed a maturity and beauty beyond her years.

With her tall figure and slender limbs, every movement she made was full of elegance and power. She exuded a heroic spirit and confidence, like a female warrior descending to earth.

Now, both her temperament and figure completely surpass the original character of the same age, and her image is closer to that of Wang Qiu'er, the Auspicious Beast form.

It can only be said that Wang Dong'er has made a lot of efforts in order to win the position of Xu Xingyu's main wife.

It was at this moment that the last member of the Holy Spirit Team slowly walked onto the stage; he was the captain of the Holy Spirit Team.

As he stepped onto the stage, he slowly removed his black robe, and the audience gasped when they saw his face.

His deathly pale face was exceptionally terrifying and eerie—his double pupils were purplish-black, and there was a purplish-black demonic eye between his brows, also with double pupils, which, combined with his dark blue short hair, gave off an extremely ominous feeling.

However, the Shrek Team and the members of the Spirit Contract Team who had previously studied at the Shrek Academy were speechless with shock when they saw him.

They recognized the person in front of them—it was Huo Yuhao had been missing for a long time.

Tang Ya froze the moment she saw Huo Yuhao, muttering repeatedly, "Little Yuhao? How could it be Little Yuhao?"

Huo Yuhao, the second disciple of her Tang Sect after Bei Bei, who was once regarded as a younger brother by her, has actually become Evil Soul Master!

When she first learned that Huo Yuhao might be abducted by the Holy Spirit Cult, she thought he would be brainwashed and turned into Evil Soul Master, just like most of the other members of the Holy Spirit Cult.

Therefore, she secretly vowed to save the boy who had been taken away by the Holy Spirit Cult and bring him back to the Tang Sect.

But now, seeing that the other person was clear-headed and showed no signs of brainwashing, she was no longer sure what she wanted to do.

At this moment, her heart was filled with complex emotions—anger, sadness, and shock intertwined, making it difficult to calm down.

Bei Bei, sitting in the audience, wasn't in a much better mood either. Compared to his girlfriend Tang Ya, his more mature thinking allowed him to see that she had willingly fallen into depravity.

After meeting Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei could actually see that Huo Yuhao carried a lot of burdens in his heart. Although he was very well-behaved, he was also prone to extremes.

Originally, Bei Bei wanted to use a long period of time to provide psychological guidance to Huo Yuhao.

No one expected that the Holy Spirit Cult would invade Shrek City at that time, and Huo Yuhao would disappear in that great battle.

Unlike Tang Ya, who harbored a sliver of hope, after learning of Huo Yuhao's disappearance, he had already considered the possibility that Huo Yuhao might have succumbed to his hidden desire for revenge.

Therefore, in Bei Bei's mind, the best-case scenario for Huo Yuhao's fate was that Huo Yuhao had died in the attack by the Holy Spirit Cult. The second best-case scenario was that he was captured by the Holy Spirit Cult, refused to submit to the cult, and was eventually brainwashed. The worst-case scenario was that he voluntarily joined the Holy Spirit Cult.

Fortunately, the former, as Huo Yuhao's Grandmaster, would avenge him and burn incense for him at certain times each year.

The second scenario is to capture Huo Yuhao and see if the brainwashing can be reversed. If not, then for the sake of the former Yuhao, he will suppress his grief and execute him personally.

The last scenario is that he, as the Grandmaster of the Tang Sect, executed Huo Yuhao, who had betrayed the Tang Sect.

Now it seems the worst-case scenario has occurred. After this match, as the opponent's former Grandmaster, he will have to pay a friendly visit to greet them.

However, upon seeing Wang Dong'er on stage, and recalling the other Holy Spirit Team members who had died in the competition due to various "unfortunate" reasons, she suddenly realized that she might not even have time to visit them before they were already gone.

That way, she could save herself some trouble later. The matter of executing her former junior brother still troubled Bei Bei.

If Xuanzu were still alive, what would he do in this situation?

After both teams confirmed their lineups, Zheng Zhan, the referee for the testimony competition, raised one hand and shouted loudly, "Individual Competition, Match 7: Wang Dong'er from the Spirit Contract Team versus Huo Yuhao from the Holy Spirit Team! The match begins!!!"

As the whistle blew, the final match between the Spirit Contract Pagoda and the Holy Spirit Cult in this Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament was finally about to begin.

Who will ultimately emerge victorious in this individual competition?
