Chapter 649 Shrek Seven Devils vs. Canghui Academy
The members of Canghui Academy looked on with schadenfreude as they watched this scene.
Although the Shrek Seven Devils and the three elemental academies ultimately failed to fight due to the referee's intervention, it was somewhat disappointing.
But the Shrek Seven Devils were actually quite happy to see that they were disliked.
After watching Huo Wu and the others leave, Dai Mubai turned back to look at the captain of Canghui Academy, and gave a cold, sneer:
"Aren't you disappointed that we didn't fight?"
The captain of Canghui Academy was in his early twenties, but he looked older than his age, appearing to be a middle-aged man in his thirties.
Faced with Dai Mubai's cold sneer, the captain of the Canghui Academy team remained noncommittal, only snorting coldly and not even glancing at him. He led his team members straight past the Shrek Seven Devils and strode confidently into the arena.
Dai Mubai's eyes flashed with an eerie light, his gaze cold and stern with a hint of disdain. "Heh, once we're on the stage, I'll show you little white dogs what's what."
The old referee who had just intervened to stop the conflict was still watching from the sidelines. Although both sides were filled with hatred and resentment, they dared not vent it in front of him.
Everything will have to wait until the game begins.
…………
Canghui Academy and Shrek Seven Devils stepped onto the arena one after the other, and the cheers from the crowd immediately erupted.
Of course, these cheers weren't just for the two teams; there were also many other voices trying to fuel the fire.
After that incident, although Canghui Academy retained its qualification to continue participating in the competition, its reputation was greatly impacted, leading to resistance from many young soul masters.
After all, no one wants to be secretly ambushed and killed while they are cultivating well, which is an absolute taboo in the Elite Soul Master Competition.
After watching the public trial of Shi Nian and understanding the background, many viewers naturally disliked Canghui Academy. Those who originally supported Canghui Academy turned against it.
As for the Shrek Seven Devils, they were too ruthless in previous competitions, which also gave them a bad reputation, leading to their rejection by most of the participating academy teams.
The viewers who supported those teams naturally stood on the opposite side of the Shrek Seven Devils.
Regardless of how much the audience turns from fans to haters or how much they don't support them, both teams are still quite strong in this Elite Soul Master Tournament and are worth paying attention to.
Overall, Canghui Academy's performance was decent. After nineteen rounds of preliminary matches, they ranked among the top mid-tier, similar to the equally strong Lanba Academy, with a record of twelve wins and six losses in eighteen matches.
The only matches they lost were against the Spirit Hall's second team and the five elemental academies; they won all the other matches, including against Blue Tyrant Academy led by Liu Erlong.
The Shrek Seven Devils achieved far better results than Canghui Academy, ranking among the top tier with a record of 17 wins and 1 loss in 18 matches, only losing to Chihuo Academy once.
As one of the highlights of the twentieth round of the qualifiers, the match between the Shrek Seven Devils team and the Canghui Academy team was undoubtedly arranged at the main center Soul Arena.
"The eleventh match of the twentieth round of the qualifiers is about to begin. Please welcome the players from both sides to the field."
"First up is the Shrek Seven Devils team, representing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, led by captain Dai Mubai."
"Next up is the Canghui Academy team, captain."
Amidst continuous cheers, the host's enthusiastic and slightly guiding introduction, and professional commentary, the Shrek Seven Devils team and the Canghui Academy team, each with eleven contestants, quickly stepped onto the competition stage.
The two stood facing each other, ten meters apart, glaring angrily at one another.
The competition hadn't even officially started, but the tension was already palpable, as if it could explode at any moment.
"Both teams salute in greeting; non-participants leave the ring!"
The referee in charge of the match was still the Soul Emperor referee, who was about sixty years old. The old referee came to the middle of the two teams and, without any hesitation, immediately began to preside over the match according to the procedure.
Despite their mutual dislike and even hatred, under the watchful eye of the old referee, the Shrek Seven Devils and the Canghui Academy members still followed the rules, bowed respectfully, and introduced themselves.
Subsequently, all the substitute players who were not participating in the game left the field.
Yes, both sides fielded their full-strength lineups in this match.
…………
Inside the exclusive rest area for the participating academies, the three Elemental Academy teams that had recently clashed with the Shrek Seven Devils and nearly came to blows have returned.
"Oh? The Shrek Seven Devils are actually going into battle with their full strength lineup?"
The commentator's booming voice, transmitted clearly through a special channel, reached the rest area. After listening, Huo Wushuang couldn't help but frown.
"Back when they faced Blazing Fire Academy, they didn't even send out their full strength. Now, to deal with Azure Radiance Academy, they're going to send out their entire main force?"
"Are you looking down on our Blazing Fire Academy?"
Huo Wu was whispering to Shui Bing'er, hand in hand, when she heard this. She looked up at her brother, her clear and straightforward voice full of indifference:
"What does it matter? They're just a bunch of chickens and dogs. Even if they field their full strength lineup, we can still easily subdue them."
Huo Wushuang paused slightly, a look of embarrassment on his face, before bursting into laughter:
"That's true. With you personally taking action, no matter how the Shrek Seven Devils put together their lineup, it will be useless. They are bound to lose."
Faced with her brother's flattery, Huo Wu just smiled lightly, not taking it to heart, and turned back to continue whispering secrets between the sisters with Shui Bing'er.
…………
On the main battle stage.
The competition has progressed to the point where participants have one minute to activate their Martial Soul and release their Soul Rings.
As the saying goes, laymen watch the show, and what the audience likes to see most is undoubtedly the dazzling scene of all the Soul Masters releasing their Martial Souls and Soul Rings together before the competition officially begins.
The appearance of each spirit ring, the different effects produced by different martial spirits, and the dazzling brilliance always fully stir the emotions of the audience.
The seven students from Canghui Academy acted swiftly.
As soon as the referee announced the release of martial spirits, the seven quickly gathered together, with their captain standing at the front, forming an odd formation.
They had used this formation in their match against the Spirit Hall's second team, and had practiced it for many years. It was flexible and versatile, capable of both defense and offense, making it the best choice for organizing formations before the official start of a match.
As the bizarre formation took shape, all seven members of the Canghui Academy team raised their right hands, and light condensed in their palms, revealing gems of various shapes.
These gems are their martial souls, an extremely rare yet highly adaptable special martial soul.
The gems in the palms of the seven members of the Canghui Academy team are all different colors and have different appearances.
There are round ones, rhomboid ones, triangular ones, and teardrop-shaped ones, and each one is a color from the seven colors of the rainbow.
The moment the seven gems appeared simultaneously, a layer of colorful light emanated from the seven students of Canghui Academy, completely enveloping their bodies.
Of the seven of them, only the captain was a Soul Master with a strength of level 40 or above; the others were only around level 30.
Moreover, even the spirit rings are not the best combination for him; all three spirit rings are yellow.
The Shrek Seven Devils team is clearly much better than Canghui Academy in terms of personnel.
With three Soul Masters above level 40 and four Soul Venerables above level 30, the Shrek Seven Devils team completely suppressed the Canghui Academy team in terms of Soul Power level right from the start of the competition.
The Shrek Seven Devils team's formation is a standard 2-3-2.
Two powerful offensive Soul Masters, Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng, positioned themselves horizontally at the front of the group, one on the left and one on the right.
Behind them were Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Ma Hongjun. Tang San was in the center, in charge of controlling the situation and issuing orders. Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun were on his left and right, launching attacks on the flanks or retreating to defend.
At the very back are Oscar and Ning Rongrong, two support-type Soul Masters.
At this moment, the Shrek Seven Devils released their martial souls and soul rings, and the field was filled with dazzling soul light.
Dai Mubai, Yu Tianheng, Xiao Wu, and Ma Hongjun, the four Beast Martial Soul Masters, have already completed Martial Soul Possession, transforming into a humanoid white tiger, a humanoid blue dragon, a humanoid rabbit, and a round humanoid chicken.
As both sides released their martial spirits and spirit rings, the commentator's voice suddenly rose to a high pitch, demonstrating the art of speaking to the fullest and showcasing what professionalism truly means.
Without needing any data, simply by looking at the martial spirits and spirit rings released by both teams, he could describe in great detail the martial spirit abilities, spirit rings, spirit skills, and so on of everyone.
The commentator's commentary has no personal bias; his bias only changes according to the audience's wishes.
But his introduction undoubtedly brought the atmosphere to its peak.
The audience's enthusiasm was at an all-time high.
"The eleventh match of the twentieth round of the preliminary rounds, Heaven Dou Royal Academy versus Canghui Academy, shall begin!"
The one-minute time limit for releasing martial spirits ended, and the old referee suddenly brought his raised hand down, officially starting the match.
As soon as the referee finished speaking, the Canghui Academy team took the lead.
There was no friendly exchange, nor any exchange of harsh words. The hatred between the two sides had already been formed, and the conflict was irreconcilable. Only the defeat, bloodshed, or even the death of the other side could wash it away.
Of course, killing is not allowed on the competition stage, so you can only bleed your opponent.
At this moment, Canghui Academy finally revealed its true colors, abandoning its pretense and pretense.
They started by hiding their trump card for a full nineteen rounds of the competition.
The captain of the Canghui Academy team suddenly relaxed his back and took a slight step back, retreating one meter in an instant, just inside the hexagonal formation formed by the other six members.
As he retreated, the other six people simultaneously took a step forward, and the originally dense hexagonal shape immediately expanded by one circle.
Strangely, although their formation had expanded, the resulting hexagon remained perfectly intact.
The captain of Canghui Academy retreated to the exact center of the hexagonal formation.
The secret weapon that he had painstakingly practiced for many years was finally used in the twentieth round of the qualifiers.
Tang San, on the other side, kept his eyes fixed on Canghui Academy's changing formation, his gaze filled with vigilance, but he did not make any rash moves.
He kept in mind the master's instructions before the competition: he could not treat Canghui Academy with ordinary eyes, as they definitely had their own trump cards.
As the already strange formation of Canghui Academy changed once again, becoming even more bizarre, Tang San's eyes turned purple. Relying on his Purple Demon Eyes' extraordinary observational abilities, he didn't miss a single detail.
"concentrated."
Suddenly, he let out a low shout, confirming that Canghui Academy's change of formation was brewing some kind of ultimate move.
The Shrek Academy team members were stunned for a moment, somewhat puzzled as to why Tang San would issue this command.
Before they could react, their waists tightened, and six purplish-black Blue Silver Grasses with strange ring-shaped bamboo nodes quietly wrapped around their bodies.
Immediately afterwards, a pulling force came, and the Blue Silver Grass led them toward Tang San.
"Third Brother, why shrink the formation? Why not just charge in and finish them off? The enemy is a bunch of weaklings. Look, one of them doesn't even have a standard spirit ring setup."
Ma Hongjun looked puzzled, but his temper flared and he couldn't contain himself, so he was the first to ask the question.
The other team members also looked at Tang San with confusion.
Xiao Wu, who is usually the most impatient, was unusually quiet this time. This was mainly because she had been jolted by Huo Wu's soul power attack and hadn't recovered yet.
Tang San didn't speak, but the purple light in his eyes intensified as he stared intently at the Canghui Academy opposite him. Meanwhile, the soul power within his body had quietly risen to its peak.
At that moment, he suddenly noticed that the captain of the Canghui Academy team opposite him was smiling.
The other six members of the Canghui Academy team did the same, all of them grinning from ear to ear.
The other person's smile looked incredibly strange, as if they had been constipated for days and were suddenly relieved, experiencing the pleasure of a rapid bowel movement.
It's not surprising that Canghui Academy reacted this way; they had been holding back for far too long.
Their trump card was developed through years of joint training under Shi Nian's personal instruction.
During the match against the Spirit Hall's second team, Canghui Academy considered whether to use this trump card, but decided against it due to tactical arrangements.
As for why they didn't use it when facing the Five Elements Academy later, it was because their teacher, Shi Nian, had been arrested, and they had no heart for the competition.
So, I've kept it until now.
And this is the moment they have been waiting for.
With a strange smile, the captain of the Canghui Academy team, who was the core of the formation, slowly raised his right hand and held the round silver gem in his palm high.
The other six team members did the same, their movements mirroring their captain's, all six simultaneously raising the gems in their hands.
Immediately afterwards, the spirit rings on all seven people lit up at the same time.
The captain of the Canghui Academy team has his fourth spirit ring lit up, making him the only one with a fourth spirit ring in the Canghui Academy team.
The other six team members were lighting up their third spirit rings.
