Douluo's main body is respected

Chapter 94 Chain Reaction
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San and couldn't help but sigh: "Xiao San, just now on the stage, Yang Xiong had already announced his defeat, and the opponent was about to retract his spirit skills, and some were even ready to attack. Why didn't you give up? Was it because of Xiao Wu or was it because you just didn't want to admit defeat?"

Tang San was silent for a while before speaking: "Teacher, they hurt Xiao Wu, I will not let them go."

Yu Xiaogang's expression grew serious. "Xiao San, this is a ring match, a fighting spirit competition. It's normal for both sides to suffer some injuries. Given your current state in the ring, you really can't block Huo Wu's final spirit skill. This is the full force of three spirit masters. Even if you were at your peak, you might not be able to stop it."

"You're not the only one on the stage. There are also two relatively fragile auxiliary spirit masters. Even Dai Mubai tried to persuade you in the end, but why did you insist on going your own way?"

Tang San said: "Teacher, I understand all the principles you said, but I just can't bear to see Xiao Wu get hurt. Every time I see Xiao Wu get hurt, I want to kill her."

"By the way, what was the final result in the ring?"

Yu Xiaogang said, "You all suffered serious injuries this time. Although you, Mu Bai, Xiao Wu, and Tai Long have recovered, you will have to miss at least two days of competition. Among the five of you, only Yang Xiong managed to hold on and was not injured."

Tang San was a little surprised: "How is this possible? I remember that the five of us were on the ring at that time. Although Yang Xiong was close to the edge of the ring, Huo Wu's spirit skills covered the entire ring."

Yu Xiaogang sighed, "I'm not sure about that. Yang Xiong's defense is even stronger than we imagined. I'm afraid his defense is even stronger than Hu Yanli of the Elephant Armor Sect."

……

The two communicated for a long time before Yu Xiaogang left the room.

Flanders quickly found Yu Xiaogang and asked, "Xiaogang, how was your communication with Xiaosan? Did Xiaosan say anything?"

Yu Xiaogang shook his head: "Flender, you should know Xiao San's character. He is very strong-willed, and he and Xiao Wu have a deep relationship. We should support him more, otherwise our team will lose its cohesion."

Flanders' face showed a trace of solemnity. "Xiaogang, what are you talking about? There are seven people on the stage. The other team members don't have the physical strength of Tang San. Yang Xiong had clearly received my instructions and agreed to surrender, but Tang San insisted on his own way and withstood the opponent's spirit skills. Now four people have been injured."

"If Yang Xiong hadn't decisively pushed Oscar and Ning Rongrong off the stage, six people would have been injured. Especially since Oscar and Ning Rongrong were only assisting, their injuries would have been even more serious. Moreover, Yang Xiong actually contacted you before asking me for instructions, but you just didn't pay attention to his condition."

Yu Xiaogang was silent for a while before speaking, "Flender, I'm really sorry about this. At the time, my mind was completely focused on Xiao San and I didn't pay attention to the others. I didn't expect Huo Wu's soul skill to be so powerful. I just trusted Xiao San's decision at the time."

Flanders shook his head: "Xiao Gang, I know Xiao San is your apprentice and you have invested a lot of effort in Xiao San, but you are the leader of the entire team now and you should consider the whole team."

"This is just a competition, just an ordinary match. Injuries between both sides are normal. We can't let the entire team be put on the defensive just because Xiao Wu was injured, or even ignore the dangers of all the team members."

……

Seeing Rand and Yu Xiaogang arguing about some things on the ring, Liu Erlong suddenly spoke up.

"Boss Fu, aren't you making a big deal out of nothing? I actually think that Tang San and Xiao Wu are very loyal and righteous, and they're responsible for their actions. Especially since every time Xiao Wu gets hurt, Tang San always risks his life to protect her. That's what true manliness is."

Flanders couldn't help but shake his head: "When Tang San loses his composure every time in this situation, he loses his judgment on the stage. This is quite fatal for the core of a team and it is easy for him to make wrong decisions."

Liu Erlong said, "Isn't it just a Soul Master Competition? The little monsters are still young and may not be mentally mature enough. Anyway, we are just treating this Soul Master Competition as a training exercise. The next Soul Master Competition will be the time for the little monsters to truly rise."

Flanders turned to look at Yu Xiaogang: "Xiaogang, do you feel the same way? You really don't take this Soul Master Competition that seriously?"

Yu Xiaogang looked extremely serious at this moment: "Since we are on the stage, we must pursue victory. We must pursue victory in every match. I support Xiaosan on this point."

Flanders couldn't help but shook his head when he saw the expressions of Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong. He now didn't know how to view this Soul Master Competition.

Compared to the entanglement of Flanders and others, Yang Xiong was much more relaxed. He simply held Ning Rongrong's hand and strolled around the academy. After such a long time, the two of them were already recognized as the golden boy and jade girl in the academy. Others were not surprised, and no one even came to disturb the young couple.

But before Yang Xiong could get too happy, an extremely serious figure appeared in front of him. It was Jian Douluo.

When Yang Xiong saw Jian Douluo, his scalp suddenly went numb. When he first came to Tiandou Royal Academy, Jian Gu Douluo beat Yang Xiong badly, but he has been a little better recently. The two of them did not give Yang Xiong any combat guidance.

Ning Rongrong was extremely happy: "Grandpa Jian, why are you here? Didn't you meet Dad and Grandpa Bone today?"

Jian Douluo then revealed a hint of fondness: "I heard that you were in danger in the arena, and I was really worried so I came to see you."

Ning Rongrong smiled and said, "I'm not in any danger. Little Bear immediately let me off the stage." Jian Douluo, who had always been rude to Yang Xiong, gave Yang Xiong a rare friendly look. "Yang Xiong, you performed well this time. At least you didn't damage the dignity of our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. But remember, Rongrong's safety still comes first in the arena. As for winning or losing, or winning the championship, it's just a child's quarrel and not that important."

Yang Xiong then bravely said, "Thank you, Elder Jian Douluo, for your guidance. I will definitely keep it in mind."

The next day, the competition was re-drawn. At this moment, Yu Xiaogang, Flanders and others all looked unhappy.

The opponent's name is Flame Glory Academy. It is only second-rate among all the teams, with average performance. There is only one Soul Master in the team.

However, compared to the opposing Flame Glory Academy, the Shrek team was in a more miserable state. Four of the seven main players were injured, and Tang San and the other four would have to miss at least two games.

Yang Xiong quickly spoke up, "Master, Dean Flanders, I suggest we just concede this match. With our current lineup, we're probably not going to win."

Yu Xiaogang said sternly, "Are you scared? You are also the elites of Shrek, don't you want to show off yourselves?"

When everyone heard what Yu Xiaogang said, they looked at each other in confusion. Everyone wanted to go on stage and show themselves, but they couldn't overestimate their abilities.

Now there are only seven people left in Shrek: Yang Xiong, Ning Rongrong, Oscar, Zhu Zhuqing, Qin Shuang, Jiangzhu, and Ma Hongjun, four of whom were originally substitutes.

In the current lineup, the highest is Yang Xiong at level 38, while Ning Rongrong and Oscar are at level 36, Zhu Zhuqing and Qin Shuang are at level 34, and Ma Hongjun is only at level 33. However, Jiangzhu is at level 35.

You should know that a normal high-level soul master academy team generally has a soul master, and the others are generally above level 37, and the substitutes are all above level 35.

In particular, this lineup is very unbalanced, with three supports, while other teams generally only have one support with no offensive ability. Having two support soul masters is already relatively extreme.

That is to say, in the arena, four combat soul masters have to fight against the six combat soul masters on the opposite side. If the opponent targets their own support, it will probably be difficult to take care of it.

Especially in the last game, due to various wrong decisions made by captain Dai Mubai and vice-captain Tang San, they were basically in a passive position throughout the whole game, and it happened that both of them were injured this time.

Yu Xiaogang looked at everyone carefully, and finally his gaze fell on Yang Xiong: "Yang Xiong, this time you are here as a strong attacker. With your offensive power, you should be able to break the opponent's formation. Then we may be able to achieve unexpected results."

Yang Xiong said helplessly, "Master, you must be mistaken. Teams need to be aligned. I've been coordinating with others as a defensive spirit master all year. If I were suddenly asked to play as an offensive spirit master, I'm afraid my coordination with others wouldn't be smooth and it would be easy for someone to exploit my weaknesses."

"Besides, we have three supports. If the opponent can arrange two or even three to contain me, our supports will become sitting ducks."

"Besides, if Tang San doesn't play, the entire team will be without a control-type spirit master, which is equivalent to the entire team being without a brain, and will be at a huge disadvantage in battle."

When the other team members heard what Yang Xiong said, they all agreed, but Yu Xiaogang looked a little unhappy.

In order to train Tang San, Yu Xiaogang has basically regarded Tang San as the tactical core over the years. Most of the tactics are developed based on Tang San. Tang San is the only control-type soul master in the entire team. Even the three major education committees have suggested adding a control-type substitute, but it was rejected by Yu Xiaogang.

As a result, the team is now seriously deformed and there is no need for them to play at all. We can't expect Yang Xiong to fight seven alone. You know, each team has a dedicated defensive soul master and relevant tacit cooperation.

Over the past year, Oscar and Ning Rongrong had privately felt a bit unfair for Yang Xiong. Normally, Yang Xiong's attack power was stronger than Tang San and Dai Mubai, but he was arranged to be a defensive soul master. You know, defensive soul masters don't have any outstanding performances on the ring, at least not as dazzling as offensive soul masters.

However, Yang Xiong seemed unusually casual. After all, he was only contributing a little, and the most important thing was to protect his girlfriend and brother.

At least Yang Xiong has never thought of doing anything to turn the tide. The better he performs at this time, the more likely he will be targeted by the Spirit Hall in the future. It would be better for him to practice with peace of mind and wait for the opportunity.

Yu Xiaogang suddenly coughed dryly at this moment: "Little monsters, I recently received a piece of news. This time the finals of the competition may be held in Wuhun City. The prize for the champion is beyond everyone's imagination. It is three top-level soul bones."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Soul bones are known as the treasures of the Blood River and are extremely rare in the soul master world. Only one soul bone has appeared in the entire soul master competition so far.

It is said that since Huyan Li showed his head soul bone, Huyan Zhen has been staying with him every day, as if he was afraid that his grandson would be in danger, and gradually the soul bone became more attractive to soul masters.

You must know that Hu Yuanzhen is a top Soul Douluo at level 88, and the leader of the Elephant Armor Sect, one of the four lower sects. His strength and status are very high, but even so, he is still worried about Hu Yanli's safety.
