Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament part 8

"Xiao Wu, help me a bit."

Tang San used a quiet voice that only the people next to him could hear. Xiao Wu was inwardly alarmed, discovering that Tang San's uniform was already soaked through with sweat, and his face was even paler than Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai. Hastily she pulled on Tang San's arm, using her strength to support his weight.

Even though Tang San had eaten Oscar's big recovery sausage, his consumption had really been too large. The weak feeling of spirit power exhaustion constantly attacked his mind. If not for his unwillingness to let the opponents and the audience notice, he would have been unable to endure long ago. This match would seem to have been under Shrek Academy's complete control from start to finish, but for the sake of this victory, Tang San had still spent too much.

Now that the fight was already over, Tang San even found it somewhat difficult to walk, and had no choice but to draw support from Xiao Wu.

After the seven stepped down from the stage, JoyBoy instantly appeared in front of Tang San, Dau Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing and gave them a pat on their back while politely saying 'Well done' with his usual smile.

When his hand made contact with their backs, he sent his spirit power with two times vitality boost to help them recover. The three felt a warm flow enter their bodies, immediately rousing their spirits, restoring colour to their faces and making them feel refreshed.

After that, he repeated the same process with Xiao Wu and Oscar and helped them recover. Then he gave a polite nod to Jing Ling and Huang Yuan and returned back to his position. After that, Dai Mubai asked every Shrek Academy student to stand in a circle.

Altogether twelve people stood together in a ring, Dai Mubai took the lead to extend his right hand, immediately followed by Tang San, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, Jiang Zhu, Ma Hongjun, Ning Rongrong, Tai Long and finally JoyBoy.

Twelve gazes focused on the same spot. The smiles on their faces grew as they shouted

"Shrek will win!"

Passing this fight, the four new substitute members finally felt like a true part of the team, and at the same time they also truly recognized the power of the Shrek original students. Further adding that they knew the Shrek original student's ages, they had a heartfelt admiration for these eight junior brothers and sisters.

Quickly changing into their own clothes, the Shrek Academy twelve students took advantage of the spectators still not having come out to swiftly leave the Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena. In the space of a breath they had returned to the Academy.

However, the Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena didn't calm just because they left. The mood in the arena had already become incomparably boiling, and cheers of 'Shrek' continued even until the end of the other four matches.

Shrek Academy was of course not the only team to take two successive victories, but the opponents they had defeated one after another was the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy second team symbolizing the Heaven Dou Empire, and the Elephant Armored Academy subordinate to one of the seven great schools, Elephant Armored School.

Their powerful opponents and Shrek Academy's offbeat clothing, no doubt made them the focus of the entire audience.

In the stands, Flender also hadn't expected them to cause such a big sensation. But, with his meticulous mind, he had already begun to calculate how to gain the most benefit from the uproar.

In the VIP seats, Heaven Elephant Hu Yan Zhen had already calmed down, and sat there as placid as water. Platinum bishop Salas at his side seemed to have a somewhat pondering appearance.

After returning to his room, JoyBoy cleaned himself, sat down on his bed and summoned his martial spirit to communicate with it. He tried to communicate with it for some time but got no response from it. Even the sense of hunger it was giving him earlier had disappeared. So, he decided to cultivate without using his clones, in order to let his body adjust to his current cultivation rank and have proper control over his abilities.

One week passed very quickly. JoyBoy increased his cultivation to rank fifty five, one day ago. He tried to communicate with his martial spirit but, the only response he got was the similar sense of hunger/desire for battle from earlier.

The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament qualifiers also smoothly completed six rounds of matches. In that time there were three academies that got six successive victories, and Shrek Academy was among them.

Besides the trouble with the Elephant Armored Academy in the second round, the next four opponents were easy wins. From the Shrek main team, only JoyBoy, Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Xiao Wu appeared. JoyBoy had participated in all four matches and the spirit power strength he showed was of Spirit Ancestor, just like in his first match.

JoyBoy noticed that every time he participated in battle, the sense of desire for battle he got from his martial spirit reduced a little.

In every match JoyBoy participated in the past week, he would always fight just two opponents, that too in such a way that it would appear like he won after facing some difficulties. Their opponents also didn't reveal any Spirit Masters over the fortieth rank, so it was easier for JoyBoy to act in such a manner.

The other two academies that earned six consecutive victories were the Thunderclap Academy and the Godwind Academy.

Today was the eighth day of the competition, and also the start of the seventh round of matches. Shrek Academy's opponent, Othello Academy had only obtained two victories, and it was also because of the weak opponent that this time they didn't fight in the central ring. Because the fight in the central ring was the highlight of the day's matches, a collision between two powerful teams at the same time as them, the Elephant Armored Academy and the Thunderclap Academy.

JoyBoy was standing in a corner and observing everything. He noticed that almost everyone in his team was just taking it easy and had no care about their opponents, so he advised them

"Everyone, even though our opponents in this fight aren't strong, we still can't be careless. A lion still needs to use all his strength to chase its food. If by chance we encounter a team with hidden strength, it's very possible we'll stumble into a ditch."

Just at this moment, Grandmaster walked in from outside

"Little JoyBoy is right, it's very possible some academies will hide their strength. However, not this time. Your opponents have already forfeited."

"Ah? Forfeited?"

The whole Shrek Academy team couldn't help looking at Grandmaster in astonishment.

Grandmaster smiled faintly, saying

"The strength you've showed off has made some academies with insufficient strength forfeit, this is quite ordinary. No need to be so astonished. You can also just use this chance to go watch the match between Thunderclap Academy and Elephant Armored Academy. These two teams are both capable of threatening you. Know yourself and know your enemy, only then can you be ever victorious. Let's go, I'll take you to the competitor's stand."

Not needing to compete meant a day of rest. In such a high density round robin system as the qualifiers, this was undoubtedly an extraordinary benefit for the Shrek Academy. Everyone immediately cheered, following Grandmaster towards the lobby outside.

At this moment, they encountered a group of people entering from outside. Moon white uniforms, those familiar 'blue sunshine' characters, as well as that gloomy old man Shi Nian in the lead. It was the Blue Sunshine Academy team. The gazes of both teams met in midair, and JoyBoy felt like he could see sparks flying from the eyes of almost everyone.

The Shrek Academy didn't have any good impression of the Blue Sunshine Academy, and Grandmaster didn't even give them a glance, directly leading the Shrek Academy group away. Shi Nian stopped walking a moment, a strange color flashing in his eyes which was noticed by JoyBoy. Shi Nian turned his head and glared at his own team, stopping some who wanted to move. Both sides crossed and passed.

While Ma Hongjun and Tai Long were becoming angry and complaining about the Blue Sunshine Academy students, Grandmaster calmly said

"Alright, you all keep calm. They're not opponents that should concern you. Over these past few days of competition, I've made some investigations into all the competing teams. Among these teams, only five are capable of threatening you. Only these five might have some hidden strength.

Of these five, you've already faced the Elephant Armored Academy. Considered a difficult victory. They also have the smallest chance of still having hidden strength. After all, Hu Yan Li's spirit bone has already been revealed. I've heard the Elephant Armored School master Heavenly Elephant Hu Yan Zhen has been together with these clan disciples every day, perhaps he's concerned about Hu Yan Li.

Besides the Elephant Armored Academy School, the other four academies that might threaten you are the Thunderclap Academy, Godwind Academy, Skywater Academy, and the Blazing Academy.

From their names, you should also have discovered that these for academies each represent four formidable capabilities. Thunder, wind, water, and fire. Add the Elephant Armored Academy representing the defensive strength of earth. In the Heaven Dou Empire academy scene they're collectively known as the five great elemental academies. Each academy has a certain degree of backing.

The Elephant Armored Academy's backing is the most direct, it was founded by the Elephant Armored School. The other four academies equally have unconventional backgrounds.

Behind the Thunderclap Academy is actually the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan, only their support is comparatively indirect, only some branch family disciples enter there, directly related disciples are fostered within the clan. Only Yu Tian-Heng entered the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. But even the branch families of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan have great strength. You can't look down on the strength of this Thunderclap Academy.

I don't know what the backgrounds of the Godwind Academy, Skywater Academy, and Blazing Academy are, but I can sense that these three academies also has deep backgrounds. They each have their own characteristics, and they're each very difficult for you to deal with.

The advancement quota from the qualifiers is only five. Therefore, you must plan for passing the qualifiers, then, one of these five academies will inevitably wash out. The five elemental academies have a close relationship, and if my guess is correct, they will inevitably move. Therefore, in the later matches you will encounter stronger and stronger opponents. Your hold your fate in your own hands. If you want to advance to the finals without trouble, then the best way is to obtain victory in each match in the qualifiers, entering the next stage with a total win record."

"Yes."

The Shrek Academy team agreed loudly.
