Chapter 234 234. Strategic abandonment?
"it's over!"

Accompanied by a dull knocking sound, sharp spikes emerged from the ice dungeon and directly pierced Jiang Yan's feet.

The sole of her foot was pierced and she was shaking with pain. She couldn't even stand steadily, let alone continue fighting.

"I, I give up. Quickly take back my spirit skills." Jiang Yan shouted loudly.

Zhu Chunqing waved the staff in his hand and lightly pointed it in the direction of Jiang Yan. The next moment, the ice dungeon under Jiang Yan's feet, along with the spikes, turned into a ripple of energy and disappeared into the world.

After doing all this, Zhu Chunqing seemed to have been drained of all his strength. He fell backwards and sat slumped on the fighting stage.

Xu Yunhan turned around and winked in the direction of the rest area. The next moment, Xiao Xiao and Ning Tian passed the waiting area and went directly to the fighting arena to help Zhu Chunqing down.

In this match, um... Zhu Chunqing won fairly smoothly. Rather than saying that she suppressed the opponent by intelligence, it would be better to say that she attacked by reducing the dimension.

"You can't have your cake and eat it too" has almost become a law in the world of soul masters. Who would have thought that the five elemental attributes of wind, fire, ice, thunder and earth would appear in one person at the same time, and have some knowledge of all of them, integrating attack, defense, control and assistance into one.

Sad, this is really sad. Looking at other fantasy worlds, even if most cultivators cannot control multiple elements at the same time, at least they can do their best, and attacking and defending at the same time is the norm.

Zhu Chunqing merely changed the form of the ice dungeon and Jiang Yan was tricked. It is conceivable how weak the soul master system is.

After Tang San became a god, until the great god circle was established, the soul master world was divided into five major schools: strong attack, agile attack, defense, control, and auxiliary.

Thirty thousand years, a full thirty thousand years, Douluo World was in Tang San's hands, and the soul master system did not develop at all, even he himself had practiced the "Xuan Tian Gong" for thirty thousand years.

After the three of them got off the fighting arena, Xu Yunhan quickly stepped forward, patted Zhu Chunqing on the shoulder, and said with appreciation: "Xiao Zhuzhu, you did a great job. Don't feel pressured. This is just a game. Just play your best. Your main task now is to strengthen your control over the five elements. There is no need to care too much about the outcome of the game."

"In my eyes, you are a hundred times stronger than Huo Yuhao. He cannot control five elemental attributes at the same time."

"Okay, go down and have a rest. Keep your mind calm."

The following matches were somewhat dull. The Tianhe Sect team only had one Soul King, Jiang Yan. Fang Zhan, who replaced Zhu Chunqing, accomplished the feat of defeating six opponents alone without much effort.

According to the rules of the Soul Master Competition, a victory in a team competition only awarded 5.5 points, and it was obviously impossible to turn defeat into victory. The Eternal Palace team directly advanced to the next round.

……

After a long competition, the Soul Master Competition finally reached the third round of preliminaries. There are a total of forty-five teams participating in this round, and thirty-two teams will enter the round-robin tournament.

For a strong team, even if they lose to another strong team in this round, they can still advance to the round-robin stage based on their previous points advantage.

After the second round of competition, representatives of each team, led by staff, came to the room where the draw ceremony was held.

There was an iron box in the center of the room. There were 45 lots in the box. In addition to one empty lot, there were 22 lots with different numbers. The two teams that drew the same number would be the opponents in the next game. Forty-five players from different teams lined up in a row and drew lots from the box one by one. Every time a lot was drawn, the staff of the Sun-Moon Empire would record it and shout out the lot number loudly to show that the competition was open, fair, and just.

"Shrek Academy Team, number seventeen."

"Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy Team, number three."

"Team Dio Academy, number six."

"Dou Ling Team, number 14."

"Xingluo Royal Academy Team, number 21."

"Snow Demon Sect Team, number eight."

"Team Changshengdian, huh? Number seventeen!"

As soon as these words came out, the representatives of the major teams were shocked. They met, the two favorites to win the championship actually met in advance. Everyone present knew that the Shrek team was able to successfully defend the title in the last Soul Master Competition because of Xu Yunhan's efforts to turn the tide. He beat the members of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Team with his sword and frightened them.

This can be considered a civil war within Shrek Academy, right? It's going to be a good show!

After hearing the result, Beibei, who came to draw lots, was stunned for a moment. When he came to his senses, he was no longer in the mood to pay attention to the match schedule of other teams. He walked out of the room and hurried back to Mingyue Hotel.

……

"This is the situation. The Changshengdian team is a tough nut to crack, and Yuhao's injury hasn't healed yet, so it's not easy to defeat them. With the points from the first two rounds, even if our Shrek team gives up this game, it will be enough for us to advance to the next round. What do you think?" Beibei leaned against the wall, looked at the six people in front of him, and spoke slowly.

Tang Ya said with a bad face: "The points of the Changshengdian team are enough to advance to the next round. Even if they give up strategically, they have to give up. The ten thousand years of glory of our Shrek Academy was built with the blood and flesh of our ancestors. Even if we die on the field, we must never retreat."

“If our Shrek team voluntarily gives up and the news gets out, people will think that we gave up strategically, but those who don’t will think that it’s us, the Shrek Academy, who are afraid of the Changsheng Palace.”

Tang Ya has changed. She doesn't know when, her humility disappeared, and was replaced by endless arrogance.

Now that things have come to this, giving up is obviously not a good idea, but they are unwilling to play this meaningless game, so they began to think about how to solve the current dilemma.

After an unknown amount of time, Huo Yuhao set his sights on Dai Huabin. “Dai Huabin, you have a pretty good relationship with Princess Jiujiu, right? You should be able to ask her to persuade Xu Yunhan. The three empires and Shrek Academy are allies, and the ambitions of the Sun-Moon Empire are obvious. We should work together to resist foreign enemies.”

"If the two teams fight to the death on the field, it will only make the enemies happy and the relatives sad. It's not that we don't want to give up strategically, but the eternal glory of Shrek Academy does not allow us to do so. For the sake of the alliance between Shrek Academy and the three empires, we ask the Changshengdian team to give up this game."
