196 Chapter 195 The Advancement Round ends (2 in 1)

Not long after, their meal was served joyfully.

All the girls were captivated by Lin Manshan's mighty performance today, and they all clipped a lot of dishes into their bowls, and the atmosphere was quite pleasant.

On the other hand, in the Shrek Academy barracks, the atmosphere was described as deadly dull.

Inside the bedroom, Xiao Wu who was smashed three times has basically been healed under the treatment of Jiang Zhu, and is sitting beside Tang San's bed with red and swollen eyes, carrying hot porridge to feed Tang San whose gaze is a little dull, and with the help of Jiang Zhu's healing spirit skills as well as the medicinal power of Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng in his body, he has also woken up. However, the trauma of the tendons and bones throughout his body hasn't healed yet, the whole person still can't move, and can only lie flat on the bed.

Outside the bedroom, Liu Erlong's lingering anger had not yet subsided, and she sat on the side of Yu Xiaogang with a face full of indignation, and on the other side was Flender, whose face was somewhat haggard. He swept a glance at the team members across the room who had no fighting spirit as they lowered their heads to pick their food, turned his head to look at Yu Xiaogang, and sighed.

"Xiaogang, let's forfeit the next advancement matches."

For the remaining three advancement matches, they would be facing the Blazing, Godwind, and Thunder Element Academies, each of them was a veteran-strong team. With the current injuries of Tang San, Dai Mubai, and Tai Long, it would definitely be impossible for them to heal up and take the stage in the next three days. With the main team members out, it was impossible to be their opponent. Continuing to fight would only make the team's morale lower and lower.

If the team did not make timely adjustments during this time, it might even affect the finals later on.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was silent for a moment.

Seeing that Yu Xiaogang did not speak, Flender continued, "It's decided."

After saying that, he slowly stood up, "I should also go and draw lots, just in time to talk to the organising committee."

This Yu Xiaogang really didn't want to take the blame at all. Obviously, it was his poor decision-making that led to the current situation, but as a result, he didn't even say a word. Looking at Flender, who walked out of the door alone, Ning Rongrong swept her eyes at Yu Xiaogang with her spare light, and couldn't help but complain inwardly.

In addition, Lin Manshan was really strong. After breaking out in a fight of that level with Tang San, he still had the strength left over to defeat Dai Mubai and the other five members of the team after fighting for so long.

"Alright, everyone, there's no need to be frustrated!" Qin Ming, who was sitting on the other side of the table, put down his chopsticks and spoke in a gentle tone.

"A loss in the promotion match is a loss, there's no need to be too concerned. Failure is the mother of success, and how is today's experience not a kind of tempering? If we lose in a solo match now, we can rely on the team to win back in the finals later, that's what we're really good at, right?"

"Hurry up and eat, everyone should go back to their rooms to practice first after eating, and rest early tonight, we have all worked hard in these recent days of continuous fighting. The next arrangement, I will discuss it out with Dean Flender at night, and inform everyone about it together tomorrow."

"Yes!" The group's minds slowed down a little and they nodded slightly.

If it wasn't for his background, what was Yu Xiaogang worth? With a quick glance at Qin Ming and Yu Xiaogang, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but comment darkly. If the roles were swapped, she felt that Qin Ming would definitely do an excellent job than Yu Xiaogang.

After eating, each of them went back to their rooms.

After a night without words, the next day, the advancement matches continued.

Due to Shrek Academy announcing last night that they would forfeit the next matches, the first match in the morning was changed to Skywalker Battle Team versus Thunder Academy. With the loud announcement from the host, Thunder Academy had Yu Tianxin be the first to enter the ring, while on the side of Skywalker Academy was Zhu Zhuyun.

"The match begins!" Seeing the two taking their positions, the host immediately announced the start of the match.

"Fifth Spirit Skill, Hell Possession!" Zhu Zhuyun did not hesitate to activate her strongest status increase skill.

At the same time, Yu Tianxin on the other side also used his own augmentation spirit skill at the first opportunity, "Third Spirit Skill, Thunder's Fury!"

The upright figure, armed with blue thunder, directly launched a charge.

Zhu Zhuyun did not hesitate to meet him, and when the distance was close, "Fourth Spirit Skill, Hell Shadow Split!" The fiery figure flashed, and two doppelgangers immediately appeared on each side, rushing towards Yu Tianxin in a closed circle.

Seeing this, Yu Tianxin immediately opened his hands, "Second Spirit Skill, Thunderous Thunder!" The overall surroundings were instantly enveloped by thunder, which rapidly flickered and spread in all directions, the ground was cracked and snapped, and pieces of scorched marks appeared.

"First Spirit Skill, Hell Surge!" Zhu Zhuyun didn't care, as she launched the first spirit skill, the four doppelgangers also released the first spirit skill at the same time.

Immediately, he saw five flashes of black light, and in the next second, five purple sharp blades were placed on Yu Tianxin's neck.

"I admit defeat!" Yu Tianxin announced helplessly.

What's the situation, why does my thunder feel like it didn't hit her? With questions in mind, Yu Tianxin turned around and went down the ring.

In the state of Hell Possession, with added resistance, added evasion and her own strength that is still one big realm higher, how do you think it would go? Lin Manshan raised an eyebrow, and then he saw that Thunder Academy had sent a Spirit Ancestor with Thunder Eagle Martial Soul and the ability to fly onto the ring.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuyun didn't hesitate to admit defeat and step down.

Shui Bing'er went up to the ring, and a few minutes later, the only Spirit Master of the Thunder Academy who possessed the ability to fly abruptly crashed subsequently. Then Shui Bing'er stepped off the ring directly, then Lin Manshan switched on the training match mode and began to dispatch the weaker teammates on his team to the ring.

Although Thunder Academy was confused, they were happy to see it and began to line up their team.

The two sides just played a friendly match in harmony.

"So why did the Yu Xiaogang master and disciple mess with Lin Manshan in the first place? I can see Lin Manshan is quite friendly to people who haven't messed with him. Yu Tianxin is also a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and no one else has taken their anger out on him before." Someone in the spectator area immediately voiced out.

"People with sick brains don't need any special reason to do things because they will brainstorm their own reasons to convince themselves." The teammate next to him slanted a glance at him, "For example, if he goes to your house and gets caught stealing chickens, he'll blame your house for having a shorter wall and a chicken coop that wasn't closed properly."

"It's just forcing yourself to convince yourself!"

"Some people's brain circuits are just so bizarre..."

"."

Amid the crowd's murmurs, the match ended very harmoniously.

After a break at noon, the match continued in the afternoon and didn't end until the sun went down in the evening.

The night was silent, and a new day began.

In the afternoon, Skywalker Academy faced Blazing Academy.

Huo Wu was the first to go into the ring with great excitement and bumped into Shui Bing'er.

"Fourth Spirit Skill, Brilliant Sun." Huo Wu opened the round with a direct grand move, splitting six small fireballs that flew towards Shui Bing'er. The latter spread her wings and directly ascended into the sky, being chased by the fireballs in the process, "Fourth Spirit Skill, Ice Cone."

Because she had broken through to the Mustard Seed Realm due to absorbing the head spirit bone, Purple Haze pupil easily saw and predicted the trajectory of the fireballs, and an ice cone shot off one after another.

Immediately after, "First Spirit Skill, Ice Bind!" Six blue lights landed on the ground and quickly surrounded the Huo Wu along the ground.

"Third Spirit Skill, Fire Ring of Resistance!" The compressed two-metre-high wall of fire instantly spread.

The blue light on the ground was directly repelled, but not disintegrated.

In the sky, Shui Bing'er seized the opening, and her hands consecutively condensed ice cones and she flung them at Huo Wu, who was in the centre of the firewall.

The surrounding blue light on the ground also attacked again.

Seeing this, Huo Wu also knew that she could not escape, and while dodging the ice cones from the sky, she conceded defeat.

Afterwards, the Huo Yun and Huo Yu brothers were sent to the ring one after another, but they were all defeated by Shui Bing'er, who had stronger hard power and faster flight speed.

Seeing that the Blazing Academy had no more flying spirit masters, Shui Bing'er retired from the ring.

Zhu Zhuqing took the stage and faced Huo Wushuang.

"Fourth Spirit Skill, Hell Possession. Second Spirit Skill, Hell Hundred Claws!" The 10,000-year fourth spirit ring lit up, and Zhu Zhuqing turned on her augmentative spirit skill at the first opportunity, then her ten fingers sprouted claws that were as sharp as blades, and she flickered forward as a phantom shadow.

On the other side, Huo Wushuang had already turned on the third spirit skill to augment himself, with sharp claws appearing on both hands, his body grew bigger, and his whole body was wrapped in golden-red scales burning with blazing flames. Blazing light converged in the centre of his palms, sparks bursting out in all directions.

Facing the charging Zhu Zhuqing, he directly swung his right arm in a sweeping motion.

It only swept into a phantom.

The next moment, "Shh!" Five claw marks suddenly surfaced on the waist, and flesh colour emerged, Huo Wushuang's body also involuntarily bowed forward slightly, afterwards, one could see Huo Wushuang's back was facing Zhu Zhuqing's figure, her willow waist was twisted in an extremely exaggerated arc, and her claws clawed at Huo Wushuang, who had only just taken half a step backwards, and was instantly slashed again and leaned forward, with visible claw marks on his back.

Followed by a succession of black shadow flashes, Huo Wushuang's body tumbled seven times, covered in claw marks, and he simply couldn't make an effective counter.

"Damn, this speed, this body flexibility, how did she practice?"

"Moreover, the attack power is quite high! Huo Wushuang's defence can't block it at all."

"Why do I feel that this sister even kept her hand? There are so many claw marks on Huo Wushuang's body, but it only reveals skin without any blood."

"Both are Agility Attack System Spirit Masters, how can the gap be so big?"

"Are you cursing me for not being able to do it?"

"." On the spectator stand, the participants were dumbfounded by what they saw, especially the Agility Attack System Spirit Master.

"Admit defeat, I admit defeat!" Huo Wushuang said in a very stifled whisper.

Zhu Zhuqing immediately stopped her movements and walked towards the outer arena.

'How could Zhu Zhuqing be so strong now?'

Although they had already announced that they would forfeit the matches, after a day of recuperation, the Shrek members who had adjusted their condition still chose to go to the arena to watch the matches, and Dai Mubai, who still wore a bandage on his chest, was also among the group. Looking at Zhu Zhuqing, his expression could be described as extremely complex.

But soon, it gradually turned gloomy again.

'Just wait for me, when I defeat Star Luo Imperial Academy in the finals and defeat Dai Weisi, I'll have the qualifications to inherit the throne. When I ascend the throne and become the emperor, sooner or later I will avenge this revenge one day.' Between his thoughts, his gaze was fixed on Zhu Zhuqing's fiery and beautiful back, the light in his eyes flickered, 'Sooner or later one day I will take you bitch back and play with you recklessly like a slave.'

With a slight downward glance, his spare gaze swept, 'There's also Lin Manshan, humph, even if he's strong, he'll have to grow up before he can do something to me. With such a high profile, sooner or later, he will be killed by the Martial Spirit Hall or the Clear Sky Clan. There's also Dugu Bo, such a threat, the two major forces will definitely not let him go. At that time, using a large army to force the Imperial Family of the Heaven Dou Empire to deport the three daughters of the Zhu Family back to the Star Luo Empire, is that not just a matter of words?'

Thinking of this, a hint of sinister evil could not help but flash through his eyes.

"Eh?" Lin Manshan, who was sitting on the other side, seemed to feel something, and his gaze quickly swept.

'This kind of mood fluctuation, Dai Mubai, you're looking for death.' Inwardly, he was suddenly flabbergasted, and his gaze was slightly cold.

On the other side, seeing Lin Manshan look over, Dai Mubai hurriedly skimmed his head to look elsewhere.

Only then did Lin Manshan take back his gaze and sweep a glance at the Shrek seats, Tang San wasn't there, he should still be lying on the bed. Xiao Wu was also not there and should be accompanying Tang San.

In between his thoughts, Zhu Zhuqing returned to her seat and sat next to Lin Manshan, sticking very close. When Lin Manshan turned his head, he caught a glimpse of Zhu Zhuqing's hair, which was a bit dishevelled because of the battle, and subconsciously reached out to help ruffle it.

Zhu Zhuqing turned her head and smiled gently.

Dai Mubai, who had turned back, happened to see this scene, and his hands were immediately squeezed tight, inwardly cursing, 'This pair of dogs!'

The match continued, the two teams played a training match very silently, and a little bit of time passed.

In the evening, the teams dispersed separately.

Another night passed, and the last match was played the next afternoon when Skywalker Academy faced off against Godwind Academy.

This time, Lin Manshan sent Dugu Yan to the ring. As for Godwind Academy, it was Feng Xiaotian who took the field.

"Could it be that Dugu Yan can also fly?" As they watched the two enter, the crowd speculated.

Not long after, the facts confirmed the crowd's guesses. With the host announcing the start of the match, Dugu Yan began to possess her martial soul, two small horns grew on both sides of her forehead, her pupils turned into vertical pupils, a few turquoise scales surfaced on her cheeks near her ears, and a faint mist gathered and surrounded her body, and then the whole person floated up like a cloud, slowly rising into the sky.

Then it was as if she had become a cloud suspended in mid-air, her body posture was graceful, just like a magical girl.

"Damn, she can really fly!"

"There are no wings, how can she fly?"

The participants were dumbstruck.

"Could this be a higher level of martial soul possession?" Watching Dugu Yan's body change, some people expressed a different opinion.

This kind of body change and flying ability was definitely based on the comprehension of the Martial Soul True Body skill. Ning Fengzhi's eyes looked towards Lin Manshan, surprise flickering in his eyes.

'Lin Manshan is already working on the Martial Soul? This is the result of his research.'

'Then perhaps the research on strengthening martial souls isn't too far away.'

Between his thoughts, he turned his head and exchanged a glance with Sword Douluo, and the latter's pupils brightened for a moment as well.

On the other side, Feng Xiaotian, who had already spread his wings and flown into the sky, also stared blankly for a moment, "This can be done?" The corner of his mouth could not help but pull slightly.

Afterwards, he saw Dugu Yan's body fluttering like a bird gliding with the wind as she swiftly drifted over.

"Damn, so fast! And seems so nimble!" The participants voiced their astonishment as they looked dumbfounded.

"So big!" There was also someone who focused on something strange and new, and the knot in his throat surged, it was none other than Ma Hongjun.

"Puh!" Then got elbowed by Flender on his old waist.

When he turned back, it was Flender who had a hateful expression on his face, his voice was low, "Can't you see who's sitting opposite you?"

At those words, Ma Hongjun's face suddenly turned pale.

He hastily lowered his head, rolled his eyes and glanced over, Dugu Bo and Lin Manshan both looked over, and his face instantly turned deathly white.

This idiot Ma Hongjun. The surrounding teammates were also in a cold sweat for him.

After glancing at him, they returned to their proper forms and continued to watch the match.

"First Spirit Skill, Wind Blade Burst!" Feng Xiaotian flung his right hand, and ten wind blades were flung out.

However, Dugu Yan's figure seemed like a fluttering goose feather, easily dodging several of them, and in the middle of the process, she casually threw a few punches and blasted a few more with her hand.

"???? Isn't Dugu Yan a control system spirit master?" The faces of the spectators were instantly filled with question marks.

"Second spirit skill, Double Wolf Body Enhancement. Fourth Spirit Skill," He shouted in a low voice, Feng Xiaotian's body bloomed with green light, and his aura soared, at the same time, an illusory wolf-shaped shadow appeared from behind his back, and three sharp blades of about a foot and a half in length were flicked out between the finger bones of both hands and then, green light up to about ten feet long suddenly erupted out of the sharp blades, as Feng Xiaotian raised his right hand to his chest, with the light blades in front of him.

"Stormwind Demon Wolf's Thirty Six Successive Chops!" The entire person instantly turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Dugu Yan.

"Self-created spirit skill! Feng Xiaotian actually knows a self-created spirit skill as well!?" The participants were taken aback again.

In the next moment, their faces froze, their mouths opened as if there was something stuck in their throats, not daring to close them, and they paused where they were.

"Fourth Spirit Skill, Medusa's Eyes." Two greyish-white beams of light suddenly erupted from Dugu Yan's eyes, directly colliding into the flying Feng Xiaotian.

The latter's body which was covered in a green light was little by little infiltrated by grey-white, and his entire body suddenly froze, falling down in an arc.

A spiritual-type spirit skill that was released by someone who was one large realm higher than him, so Feng Xiaotian didn't even have the possibility of resisting it.

"Spiritual type control spirit skill," Academy instructors present who knew their way around felt a chill in their hearts, including Yu Xiaogang, when dealing with spiritual type spirit skills, only those with equal or exceeding spiritual power could counteract it.

Dugu Yan is already in the Spirit King realm.

There were only a handful of participants who had that capability, and his disciple Tang San wouldn't necessarily be able to block it.

How could we play if we could be controlled by a single glare? The spectating participants were also watching with numbness in their scalps.

On the other side, Dugu Yan flew downwards, pulling Feng Xiaotian's already petrified arm and bringing him safely to the ground.

"We admit defeat!" The off-court instructor made a statement on behalf of Feng Xiaotian, who couldn't speak.
