CH 135: Cang Hui dogs

CH 135

(Ali's POV)

"they're much stronger than the emperor battle team." Yu Xiaogang kept on explaining as a serious expression took over his face :"they are your most powerful opponents in this tournament.

Especially one person, the Pope's second disciple. It is rumored that she has the strongest talent in all of Martial Soul Hall.

Not only is his martial soul told to be extremely powerful, he has twin martial souls. He will be your biggest obstacle."

While I tried desperately to not smirk, everyone but San'ge had a surprised face at the news. I had already him about my years in the Martial Soul Hall after all.

Oscar scratched his head with a bewildered look :"damn, who would've known that we would have to go against such a monster..."

But Fatty being Fatty, snorted as he slammed his chest a few times :"who cares if he's such a genius? We definitely won't lose, after all, we have boss Ali with us!"

His words caused my lips to twitch from his disrespect to my real identity as I rolled my eyes at him.

Yu Xiaogang :"alright, enough. The finals will be elimination rounds. The first round will be a bye for the three seed teams.

In the second round, the two best qualifier teams will be in a bye. The same rules apply to the third round as well.

After the third round, only the best 6 teams we remain. In the fourth round, each team will draw lot to determine the opponents. The top 3 will battle in both teamfight and eliminations."

Fatty scratched his head with an awkward, confused face :"why are there so many rules in this tournament?"

I snorted with a smirk as I cracked my neck :"as long as we win each and every round, there ain't a need to worry about any of these rules."

And to confirm my words, Yu Xiaogang nodded :"that's right, you just need to win every fight.

Only 3 of you will battle in the preliminary rounds. Rongrong won't battle, I have special training for her."

Even San'ge was surprised this time :"only three of us can battle?"

Yu Xiaogang :"if you expose your strength too early in the competition, the path afterwards will be difficult."

"I understand, master." San'ge said before I interrupted :"whoa whoa whoa. Hold on a damn second.

I don't care if the others don't want to fight, but I will definitely be fighting in each round. It's the only reason why I want to join this competition after all."

They already knew about my stubborn mindset and that I wouldn't change my mind after deciding on something, so Yu Xiaogang nodded after a second :"sigh, alright.

I am sure that I won't be able to change your mind, so you can fight. Xiao San, you will be in charge of the strategies."

Tang San :"Tai Long and Huang Yuan are both from storm attack branch. They can be our vanguard.

Jing Ling is from the keen attack branch. He's skeleton martial soul will be unpredictable to opponents.

Jiang Zhu's healing sceptre is not as powerful as Xiao Ao's or Rongrong's. But she is one of the best in support branch."

Dai Mubai :"Tai Long and his friends haven't reached level 40 yet, but they are the best candidates to hide our true strength. That's why they were picked by master. Who will battle tomorrow?"

Tang San :"since Xiao Ali said that he will fight in every round, it will be him, Xiao Wu and me."

Just as he finished speaking, the ever so greedy voice of Flender was heard :"little devils. For the Continental Soul Master School Elite Tournament, I designed a new batch of cool and dashing uniforms for you."

(Nobody's POV)

They all got up and walked towards the box that Flender had brought as Ma Hongjun kneeled beside it :"I hope it's not the last one we had."

Ali couldn't ignore the weird and uncomfortable feeling as he raised his eyebrow :"why? I haven't seen the design of our clothes for the Continental Soul Master School Elite Tournament, but why do you say it as if it was really bad??"

Flender snorted as he straightened his back with a proud look :"we will be the champions! We need to be strong and cool looking!"

"Could it be..." Tang San, Xiao Wu and Zhuqing said while Ali just looked at them with confusion.

But after they opened the box and Oscar wore the clothes, his confusion turned into a frown :"you've got to be kidding me..."

Oscar turned around as they all looked at the shit green outfit with frowns :"this is even more hideous than our previous outfits."

But it seems like Flender liked the outfits quite a bit as he fixed his glasses with a smug face :"so? Aren't they cool?"

Ning Rongrong grimaced at the outfit as she stomped her foot :"This uniform is so ugly, it's like... Dean, don't you have a sense of aesthetic?!"

Dai Mubai pointed at the commercial on the back of the outfit as he shook his head :"and the product placement is so embarrassing."

Flender smiled awkwardly as he tried to explain :"that is for our school budget." But Ali was having none of it as he smiled angrily while his eye kept twitching :"dean, you're delusional if you actually think that I will wear this shit.

If I wear this ugly thing, my name won't be Ali! There ain't no way in hell that I will wear this ugly shit that you seem to have brought up from the sewers!

You better change it! Cause if you don't, you better believe me when I say that I will ask Erlong to beat the shit out of you."

A shiver ran down flender's back before he gulped :"I have other works to do. Try out your new uniforms!"

And he took a run for it while Ali shouted at me :"where are you going, you bastard?! I told you to change it!!"

But there wasn't a sign of him stopping. Ma Hongjun dropped on the ground with the uniform on his stomach :"brother San, boss Ali, I don't want to wear it."

Tang San awkwardly turned to his master :"master..." But he just covered his face with his free hand awkwardly :"consider this an ordeal for your minds."

Zhuqing grimaced as she turned to Ali and pulled on the hem of his shirt :"Ali... This outfit is really ugly, I really don't want to wear it..."

Ali snorted with an angry face as he gritted out :"fuck no, I'm definitely not wearing that, and I'm definitely not going to let you wear that... Abomination..."

-

Finally, the day that the Continental Soul Master School Elite Tournament would have begun had come.

The streets were lively with both normal people and soul masters as all of them walked to the place where the tournament was going to begin.

"Wow! So many people!" Ning Rongrong awed as she looked at all the people passing by one after the other.

But Oscar quickly pulled her back behind the big ass pilar that they were hiding behind as he grimaced at her outfit.

All of them were frowning at their looks, except Ali and Zhuqing who weren't wearing the hideous clothes.

(Ali's clothes image:)

Ali was especially satisfied with his clothes as he kept looking at his handsome self with a satisfied grin :"thanks, Erlong.

If not for you, this asshole of a dean would have forced me and Zhuqing to wear that ugly ass outfit."

Erlong snorted with her arms folded under her tatas <why does this word sound so hilarious ?> :"Hmph, as if I would let you two wear those hideous clothes.

Zhuqing is such a beautiful girl, it would be such a bad thing to let her wear such an ugly thing, wouldn't it? But I have to say, I quite like your new outfit."

Ali snorted proudly as he folded his arms against the soft, high quality fabric of the clothes as he smiled :"of course. I did choose an outfit that would suit me after all. And I like these kinds of designs, so it's a plus."

"What school are they from?" A mocking voice came as they turned to see people that were walking talking about them :"did they come out from the sewer or something?"

The group turned towards them with frowns as they continued on walking :"there is even an the advertisement on their backs! Nothing is too weird nowadays!"

"Shhh, shut it, they are soul masters. But they do have a fat guy with them. He is round like a ball hahaha."

The teachers moved quickly and left the kids alone, who then moved on a little later, although sneakily.

After sneaking around a bit, but walking normally when a few people passed by while laughing, Ma Hongjun said with a depressed look :"I don't want to wear this uniform anymore. This is ruining my image!"

This time, even Ali felt bad. So he walked to him and squatted down to Ma Hongjun who was holding his head in his hands with a sympathetic look :"we will talk to that asshole of a dean later on. At least the advertisement on your backs can be removed. Hopefully."

All of them nodded with hopeful looks before Flender and the others walked towards them :"why do you have to choose a place so remote out here?"

But he immediately stopped acting so smiley when they all turned to him with fire in their eyes :"pull yourselves together. We are here to be the champion!"

"Champion?" But an unpleasant voice came after he finished talking :"even losers want to be a champion?"

When the Shrek folk looked to see who talked, they saw a bunch of people walking down the stairs with arrogant faces.

From their uniforms, Ali recognized them. The ever so foolish people of the Cang Hui school which they had beaten a few times.

Ali made a confused face as he cleaned his ear with his pinky :"hey, is it just me, to did you guys also hear a dog barking?"

Ma Hongjun laughed loudly as he held his stomach :"no, boss Ali, I also heard it! And from the sound of it, the dog seems to be rabid!"

Ali also laughed without a shame as they both ridiculed them :"yeah, but why are they here? I didn't know that they allowed dogs here, moreso rabid ones!"

The said rabid dog growled with an angry face as they walked down :"how dare you call me a dog."

As they walked down and stood in front of them with arrogant looks, as if they hadn't gotten their asses handed to them a few times already, Oscar whispered to Ma Hongjun and Ali :"aren't they from the Cang Hui school? Why are they picking a fight with us?"

Ali rolled his eyes with a disgusted face :"why else, isn't it just because they are morons? Haven't you seen that yourself in the past?"

"What do you think you're doing?" A slightly old voice came before the Cang Hui students made way to let the Shrek fold see who talked.

From a few stairs high, a guy with a face that didn't seem to scream friendly and an arrogant aura looked down on them.

Ma Hongjun circled his hand around Ali's shoulder with a ridiculing face :"oh? The dogs' master is here."

And Ali snorted in reply with a disgusted smile :"yeah, and he deserves to be their master considering how ugly he is."

But it seems that the old dude was much more calm headed than the dogs as he turned around and started walking :"let's go."

And the dogs didn't object as they obediently followed after him while Ma Hongjun laughed :"haha, they became good boys when their master is here."

Ali snorted with a smirk :"yeah, guess they at least act obediently when their master is around. It seems that they're trained well."
