Chapter 3249 Restraint_1

Inside the Friendship Match Arena!

The abyssal creatures, with their faces obscured and wearing gray hats, entered very inconspicuously...

Then, they found seats at the very back and sat down...

Listening to the piercing cheers of the surrounding Soul Masters and civilians, they couldn't help but reveal a wicked smile!

"Hehehe, there are so many humans here, I can hardly wait to start feasting!"

"Hmm, most of these humans are Soul Masters, and devouring them would offer a much greater increase than ordinary humans!!"

"Fools, why have we come here? This place has at least three Hyper Douluo level beings, if we really start a fight, we will surely have no place to be buried!!"

"Rest assured, we're just here to see the human society that the Abyssal Emperor spoke of; naturally, we wouldn't hunt in such a place. But from what we see now, this is nothing at all"

Their conversation naturally caught the attention of the nearby audience...

However, upon realizing they were all humans, they didn't pay much attention and assumed they were just talking nonsense due to excitement, and started shouting again with fervor...

"I just knew that Shenfeng Academy would be the strongest among the Elemental Academies, to defeat Thunder Academy so easily!!"

"That's right, my biggest bet is on the students of Shenfeng Academy, every one of them is so outstanding, and they win the matches with ease!!"

"The match between Shenfeng Academy and Thunder Academy is already old news, are you even watching the game!?"

"Exactly, fake fans, drag them out, drag them out!!!"

"Really, to be sitting here in the stands and yet not know which academies are fighting against each other, what's the point of even watching the match!"

As the atmosphere in the entire arena became more intense, the deacon in charge of hosting the match also said loudly, "It seems that the audience indeed has high expectations for this Friendship Match, so I declare, next up, it will be Skywater Academy versus Blazing Fire Academy!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of the teachers and students on Skywater Academy's side all revealed joy...

This was undoubtedly the best draw for them!!

Gu Qingbo licked his lips, excitedly saying, "To actually draw Blazing Fire Academy, it seems our luck isn't bad!"

Yu Hairou nodded and echoed, "That's right, water overpowers fire, no matter how strong their individual powers are, they can't defy this rule. Skywater Academy is bound to win this time!!"

Snow Dance then spoke in a deep voice, "Although we have a very high chance of winning against Blazing Fire Academy, we must not be careless because details determine success or failure!!"

Shui Bing'er nodded slightly, "That's correct, Snow Dance makes a good point. Even if we have the advantage in our Martial Souls, if we lose the victory due to carelessness, it would be a loss not worth the risk!"

Qiu Ruoshui patted her on the shoulder, proudly saying, "Bing'er, rest assured, although that's said, we will definitely give our all in the match. After all, if we lose, Skywater Academy will lose all its dignity!!"

This was not just a battle between the three of them, but also a contest between academies!

In contrast, over at Blazing Fire Academy, everyone was frowning and looked extremely troubled...

For no other reason than Skywater Academy being the complete counter to Blazing Fire Academy, the chance of victory was slim to none!!

Therefore, they were all cursing and complaining, "Damn it, how did we draw Skywater Academy? Our luck really sucks!"

"Yeah, facing those guys from Skywater Academy, our Martial Souls and soul skills will be greatly weakened, it's impossible to win!"

"The match hasn't even started yet, don't talk like that. Even with attribute suppression, if individual strength is strong enough, we can still turn the tide of battle!"

"Eh, I'm not holding out much hope. Those of you in the match, just do your best. Even if we lose, it's nothing to be ashamed of!!"

Huo Wushuang glanced at everyone, coldly saying, "Do you guys really want to willingly lose to the people of Skywater Academy? What if there's an attribute suppression? I simply refuse to believe this superstition; I will win this match!"

Huo Wu then reminded in a low voice, "Brother, aren't your words a bit too confident? Facing Skywater Academy, we're at a disadvantage at every turn, and it's very difficult to win."

Clearly, she didn't believe there was any chance of victory in this matchup either!

The only thing they could do was to avoid losing too badly!!

Huo Wushuang took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the emotions in his heart, "Sister, how can you speak like that too? If we give up on ourselves, then what's the point of competing? Wouldn't it be better to just forfeit?"

Huo Wu didn't know how to rebut, "This..."

Seeing her reaction, Huo Wushuang once again said, "Regardless, we have to try our hardest!!"

"Let's go, it's time to take the stage!!"

As expected, as the voice of the Spirit Hall Executives echoed once more, the competing students from Skywater Academy and Blazing Fire Academy ascended onto the stage for the showdown...

Their gazes toward each other were filled with intense battle spirit...

...

Ning Fengzhi shook his head and sighed, "Skywater Academy versus Blazing Fire Academy, who would have thought such a low probability would come to pass, eh!"

He could even already predict which academy would win!

Gu Rong also gave a slight nod, affirming Ning Fengzhi's words, "Indeed, this is a match without any suspense!"

But the next second, he suddenly perceived a strange aura...

He immediately cast his gaze toward the audience stands below, as if searching for something...

However, nothing seemed amiss amidst the dense crowd of figures...

Ning Fengzhi noticed the change in his expression and asked with curiosity, "Uncle Bone, what's wrong? Your expression just now seemed a bit off!"

Gu Rong responded somberly, "I just sensed an extremely strange aura, neither that of a Soul Master nor a soul beast!"

"It was as if nothing happened when I looked toward the audience seats!"

Ning Fengzhi speculated, "Could it be an illusion?"

Gu Rong firmly denied, "No...no, I've never felt this kind of aura before. I'm absolutely certain it was not a mistake!"

Thinking this, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but cast a glance toward the expressionless Bi Bidong, thinking to himself, "Could it be that all this is related to the Martial Soul Hall?"

Most likely, this was also the reason why she specifically chose Martial Soul City as the venue for the competition!

However, the purpose of doing so was still not clear; it was best to watch silently and see how things unfold!!

Gu Rong seemed to have realized something too and whispered at a volume only the two of them could hear, "Feng Zhi, could this be..."

Ning Fengzhi interrupted without hesitation, "Uncle Bone, let's continue watching the match!"

It's best to understand these matters tacitly; it's not good to reveal too much!!
