Just as Qian Yu came over, Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "As expected of Elder Qian Yu, you've easily won the hearts of two women!"
After spending so many days together, they found that Qian Yu's character was not as irascible and terrifying in battle...
Ningtian, full of gossip, chimed in, "If I remember correctly, didn't Elder Qian Yu become partners with Wang Dong'er at the Sea God Love Matching Festival? I was so envious at that time!"
Next to him, Ling Luoshang let out a cold "hmm."
If it weren't for Qian Yu saying he already had someone he liked, perhaps she would have chosen Qian Yu too!
Dai Yaoheng looked as if he had discovered a new continent, surprised, "What? Ling Luoshang, you couldn't have fallen for Elder Qian Yu at the Sea God Love Matching Festival as well, could you?"
A few shades of red quietly crept onto Ling Luoshang's cool cheeks as she retorted, "That's still better than liking you."
Dai Yaoheng taunted, "Tsk, so your poker face really did fall for someone."
Qian Yu glanced sideways at them...
Immediately, Ling Luoshang and Dai Yaoheng quieted down...
Only then did Qian Yu turn his gaze to Wu Feng's face...
Wu Feng, who was talking to Ningtian, felt Qian Yu's sharp gaze and subconsciously took two steps back, forcing a smile, "Elder Qian Yu... why are you looking at me like that?"
This Elder Qian Yu was someone who controlled the entire Sun-Moon Empire!
He wasn't thinking about how to dispose of her now, was he?
Qian Yu saw the fear on her face, flicked her forehead with his finger, and said indifferently, "It's nothing. I just thought you did well today."
Wu Feng was stunned, "Eh?"
Elder Qian Yu must have noticed her yesterday, but now this was...
That's right, it must be to let her guard down and then silence her!
Thinking this, Wu Feng's gaze towards Qian Yu became even more wary...
Seeing that Wu Feng had probably overthought again, Qian Yu didn't explain any further, "Let's go!"
Dai Yaoheng and the others immediately followed, and once again strong cheers erupted from the audience...
"Long live Shrek Academy! Long live Shrek Academy!!!"
"This captain of Shrek Academy is simply inhuman! Able to crush a Soul Fusion Skill without even releasing his Martial Soul!"
"Looks like this year's champion is none other than them!"
"Don't forget about Tang Sect! That team has also been hiding its abilities! Neither are easy opponents to deal with!"
Once the people from Shrek returned to the spectator seats, the elder on stage spoke up again, "The next match will be Tang Sect against Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy!"
"What? Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy? This will be an interesting match to watch!"
"I wonder if the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy can make Tang Sect reveal their true strength!"
"This match is definitely going to be exciting, a must-watch!"
...
Over at Tang Sect!
With beautiful eyes, Tang Ya looked at Huo Yuhao beside her and frowned, "Yuhao, do we really have to do this? Isn't it a bit improper?"
Jiang Nannan muttered, "Although this plan allows us to avoid an early encounter with Shrek Academy, it kind of insults the other party!"
Xu Sanshi said irritably, "The opponent is the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, they don't need our respect at all! Plus, the two academies have always been like fire and water!"
Bei Bei took a moment to weigh his words, then spoke, "Let's do as Yuhao says then. Moreover, it's a personal escape match; just taking one hit from the opponent and admitting defeat won't cause them too much loss of face!"
Ma Xiaotao reminded, "It's our turn now, let's go on stage first!"
Everyone nodded and walked to the combat platform with unchanged expressions...
Both Tang Sect and the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy began sizing each other up...
Only to see Xiao Hongchen smiling and saying, "You must be the captain of Tang Sect's team, Huo Yuhao, right?"
Huo Yuhao also replied with a light smile, "Yes, I am the captain of Tang Sect."
Seeing Huo Yuhao's admission, Xiao Hongchen's eyes flashed with dark light, and he said with a smile, "It seems that someone like you can be chosen as the team captain. Has this so-called Tang Sect really run out of people?"
Xu Sanshi angrily said, "You..."
Bei Bei quickly pulled Xu Sanshi back, soothing him, "Keep cool, San Shi. He's just trying to provoke us. There will be plenty of opportunities for revenge later!"
Despite his mild appearance, Bei Bei's heart was even more scheming than anyone else's!
Tang Ya covered her mouth and laughed, "Yes, Xu Sanshi, don't forget what Yuhao said before."
Xu Sanshi's eyes glinted craftily as he looked menacingly at the members from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy!
Huo Yuhao said calmly, "The feeling is mutual. I also didn't expect the famous Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy to be only this much. Quite disappointing at heart!"
Meng Hongchen next to Xiao Hongchen said angrily, "Damn it!"
However, Xiao Hongchen smoothly defused the situation with a smile, "Then let's cut the crap! Let's begin."
The elder nodded and announced, "Please send out one member from each team!"
As soon as his words fell, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy sent out an ordinary-looking agile-attack class Soul Master...
On the Tang Sect side, Huo Yuhao turned to Xu Sanshi and said, "Senior Brother Xu, it's up to you now!"
Tang Ya clenched her fists and exclaimed, "Xu Sanshi, you have to smack their faces hard!"
Bei Bei chimed in, "Yeah! Don't hold back! Just insult them thoroughly!"
Xu Sanshi, patting his chest, confidently walked out and declared, "Don't worry, I guarantee I'll make them explode with rage!"
It was all thanks to Yuhao's strategy that they were about to give the other side a thorough face-massage...
When both parties stood firm, the elder spoke again, "Please release your Martial Souls and Soul Rings!"
Xu Sanshi was the first to release the Xuanming Turtle, with seven soul rings slowly rising under his feet...
Two yellow, two purple, three black!
The agile-attack class Soul Master opposite him then released the Eagle Martial Spirit!
Six soul rings rose beneath his feet...
Two yellow, two purple, two black!
Upon seeing that Xu Sanshi's Martial Soul was a turtle, the agile-attack class Soul Master thought to himself, "Seems like he's defensive. I just need to delay the time!"
"The battle begins," said the elder, stepping back a few steps...
Xu Sanshi unhurriedly took out a level 6 soul tool from his storage soul tool and then silently aimed the muzzle at the agile-attack class Soul Master from the other side!
After infusing Soul Power, he pressed the button...
A volley of dense missiles flew towards the opponent...
The agile-attack class Soul Master snorted coldly. "Hmph!"
The third soul ring beneath his feet lit up, Third Soul Skill! Eagle Claw Rend!
The pair of eagle claws on his Eagle Martial Spirit glowed, and then he swung them crosswise, unleashing a rending attack that effortlessly sliced through the missiles...
The agile-attack class Soul Master said disdainfully, "You think with this you can hurt me?"
But Xu Sanshi put away the soul tool, scratching his head with an embarrassed smile, "Well, that's my attack done. I'll take my leave first!"
Having said this, he instantly ran to the edge of the platform and jumped off...
Watching this scene, the agile-attack class Soul Master from the opposing side was utterly confused, "???? Taking your leave first? This is the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, you know!"
Mid-jump, Xu Sanshi's lips curved into a strange smile. Then, the fourth soul ring beneath his feet shone...
Fourth Soul Skill, Xuánmíng Swap!
In an instant, the positions of the two switched, and the agile-attack class Soul Master found himself falling off the stage!
Looking down at him from the platform, Xu Sanshi sneered, "Sorry about that! You just stay down there!"
