Chapter 239: Barak Making His Presence Felt? I'll Weary You Out!_1

Evening, after dinner.

"Listen up, everyone, the draw for tomorrow's match is out!"

Ye Feng said this with a relaxed demeanor.

"Oh, that was fast? Which academy is our Dou Huang Battle Team facing? It's not that trashy Shrek Academy right away, is it?! It would be interesting if we were matched with them in the first fight!"

"Haha, I want to bump into Shrek Academy too!"

After Yu Tianheng's voice faded, Dugu Yan's voice quickly followed.

Then, the rest of the Dou Huang Battle Team began to chime in.

To them, Shrek Academy seemed like a fun opponent!

For some reason, they were especially eager to see the Master's face filled with anger.

Last time at Tian Dou Royal Academy, the other team had been jumping around too.

In the end, they were slapped in the face so hard they almost couldn't recognize their own mothers!

"Shrek will definitely be fought, just not now. This time, our Tian Dou Royal Academy Douluo Team will have its first match against Balak Academy!"

Ye Feng spoke at this moment.

He remembered that in the original plot, Shrek Academy was supposed to battle Balak Academy.

Now, Balak Academy was arranged for them.

How interesting.

Let's start the cutting with Balak Academy then!

Ye Feng thought to himself.

"Balak Academy? Isn't that from a small kingdom? I didn't expect them to make it to the qualifiers!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng had a look of complete surprise on his face.

He remembered that Balak Academy was in Soto City.

There was a kingdom controlling it.

That kingdom was Barak.

He truly hadn't expected that they would have advanced too!

As a scion of a major family, Yu Tianheng didn't really pay much attention to these kingdom affairs normally.

After all, their family could sometimes wipe out a kingdom in an instant.

"Of course, the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament is divided into the preliminary, the qualifier, and the finals. The Tiandou Empire has six preliminary zones, including Tiandou City's division and four affiliated kingdoms, plus one for the other territories. Tiandou City has five qualifying spots, the affiliated kingdoms and duchies have two spots each, for a total of fifteen spots in the qualifiers," Ye Feng explained.

Since Barak Kingdom was one of the four major kingdoms affiliated with the Tiandou Empire, they naturally qualified to send participants to the qualifiers.

Ye Feng also remembered an interesting story; apparently, Shrek once fought for the spot from Barak Kingdom, but due to the nobility's obstruction, they ultimately failed to qualify, causing Qin Ming to lose his chance to participate in the Continental Senior Soul Master Competition.

But this wasn't surprising.

Back then, Shrek Academy wasn't anything more than a wild chicken school by today's standards.

So it was understandable that they lacked the qualification to compete.

"I see."

The crowd nodded in understanding.

"Instructor Ye, how do you plan to arrange everyone?" Ye Lingling asked at this moment.

"I think the instructor will definitely raise a finger this time."

Right then, Dugu Yan mimicked Ye Feng's action and raised a finger.

It had to be said, she copied his gesture quite well.

"No no no, we can't do it like that anymore."

Ye Feng shook his head.

"We can't do it like that anymore??"

Everyone showed a look of doubt upon hearing this.

Why can't we do it that way?

"Because the rules for this qualifier are completely different from the preliminary ones," Ye Feng said.

"Ah? Different? How so?"

All the team members looked curious as they asked.

They hadn't really looked into these rules before.

"This time, each side sends seven members to participate, with each fighter battling until defeated. The winner keeps facing the next challenger until one side's seven members are all beaten, marking the end of the match," Ye Feng explained to them.

Since these rules had just come out, it was understandable that no one knew them. As their captain and team leader, it was his responsibility to make it clear to them.

"Does that mean it's one-on-one and not a team fight?" the crowd seemed to understand as they heard this.

"Mhm, exactly!" Ye Feng nodded at this moment.

"That's going to be a much bigger challenge with one-on-one duels!"

"Indeed! But I love it!!"

The members of the Dou Huang Battle Team all revealed their fierce fighting spirit.

"Even though you all are strong and have grown a lot from this month's special training, I still have some words for you: no matter what kind of opponent you face, never ever let your guard down, got it?" Ye Feng said.

One-on-one battles did give them an advantage, but since they were up against the strongest candidates selected through multiple rounds from duchies and empires, they couldn't afford to be complacent.

"Alright!!!" Yu Tianheng was brimming with fighting spirit!!

One-on-one fighting was his favorite kind of match.

"Then Instructor, will you participate with us in the qualifiers as you did in the preliminaries?" Dugu Yan asked at that moment.

"Mm-hm, I'll join in the match with everyone, since we should all have some fun, right?" Ye Feng said with a smile.

He had participated in the preliminaries, so naturally, he would join in the qualifiers.

After all, he was also a member of the team.

He couldn't just sit out the matches because he was too strong!
