Douluo: Twin Origins, Suppressing the World

Chapter 143 A Clay Chicken and a Clay Dog, Making a Scene

All the lottery results and rankings were released quickly.

Shrek Academy, just like in the original story, is the first to appear, and their opponent is Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy, an extremely ordinary soul master academy with no outstanding features.

When the people from Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy received this result, all the team members were pale and their eyes were filled with terror.

That expression was exactly the same as the one the Shrek Academy members had when they saw Ling Shuang in the Star Luo Royal Academy team.

Shrek Academy did an excellent job of keeping their information secret. Apart from Ling Shuang, who knew the original plot and saw through the clues, no one else knew about the official team's annihilation.

Otherwise, if Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy knew that it was facing only some reserve team members who were at most Soul Masters, it probably wouldn't be under so much pressure before the battle even started.

As is well known, almost all competitive events are highly susceptible to pressure.

Some people who are originally very strong may make mistakes due to excessive psychological pressure and lose to someone weaker than themselves.

Why did Shrek Academy send these people?

"Aren't these all from the outer courtyard?"

After a long while, Xu Jiujiu frowned slightly as he watched the Shrek Academy students walk onto the competition stage.

Her investigation into Ling Shuang also included information about these people, which is why she was so surprised.

Even if the opposing academy is weak, they shouldn't be completely without any of their regular players, right?
This is an elimination tournament, and if something goes wrong, there won't be another chance!

"Perhaps this is the only way." Ling Shuang crossed her arms, her words carrying a hidden meaning.

Under his gaze, Wang Yan, the leader of Shrek Academy, had a calm expression on his face, but his forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

It's not that they don't want to be on the official team, it's that they simply can't make it!

"Hmm?" Xu Jiujiu sensed the hidden meaning in Ling Shuang's words and her heart stirred.

Following Ling Shuang's gaze, the princess also noticed Wang Yan's subtle details, enhanced by her soul power.

So nervous?

Xu Jiujiu, being exceptionally intelligent, immediately made a guess upon noticing the unusual behavior of the Shrek Academy team leader:
Could it be that Shrek Academy didn't refrain from sending out its regular players because of overconfidence, but rather because some unforeseen event prevented them from doing so, leaving them with only these reserve players?

This guess had been lingering in her mind for a long time, making it seem all the more likely to her.

"Young Master Ling, please excuse me," Xu Jiujiu said softly to Ling Shuang.

"Princess, please make yourself at home. I'll take care of things here." Ling Shuang could tell at a glance that the princess was suspicious of why Shrek Academy hadn't sent any official team members.

After saying goodbye to Ling Shuang, he didn't linger for a long time before turning around and leaving, his figure disappearing into the corridor.

She wanted people to investigate thoroughly what happened to the Shrek Academy team on their way to Star Luo City, in order to verify her suspicions!
Not long after Xu Jiujiu left, a deafening roar of exclamations erupted in the arena.

Just like in the original story, Shrek Academy used Huo Yuhao's trick of simulating soul skills to create a mystery.

The appearance of six 100,000-year spirit rings extinguished the fighting spirit of the already under immense pressure Tianling Advanced Spirit Master Academy team.

However, since Wang Dong did not participate in this competition and did not have any spirit fusion skill with Huo Yuhao, he did not use the Golden Road to defeat his opponent as in the original work, but relied on another method...

Looking at the scene on the field, Ling Shuang's expression turned strange.

Others might not have noticed, but Ling Shuang, who was curious about how Huo Yuhao would maintain his facade of coolness after losing the Golden Path Martial Soul Fusion Skill, saw it clearly.

Despite being deliberately blocked by the other Shrek Academy members, Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin actually held hands!

Seeing this, Ling Shuang was thankful that she didn't have water in her mouth, otherwise she would most likely have spat it out. Ling Shuang knew all too well the feud between Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin, and she truly couldn't imagine how those two could have gone this far!

No, that's not right!

Ling Shuang suddenly remembered another question.

As he watched the massive three-eyed white tiger slap the students from Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy off the stage, his lips twitched slightly.

How did these two people discover that they had a Martial Soul Fusion Technique?
If Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin were to suddenly engage in intimate behavior and discover their Martial Soul Fusion Skill, that would be quite amusing!
Ling Shuang, who had initially shown little interest in the competition, suddenly became quite interested.

In reality, Huo Yuhao, who appears calm on the competition stage, is not at peace inside.

After defeating the Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy team and the Three-Eyed White Tiger disappeared, he abruptly withdrew his hand.

He was utterly disgusted at that moment.

If it weren't for winning this championship, he wouldn't have endured the disgust and used the Martial Soul Fusion Technique with Dai Huabin.

After Ling Shuang dropped out of school, Shrek Academy became extra attentive to Huo Yuhao, who was ostensibly the most talented student.

Having suffered bullying since childhood and with his mother already deceased, Huo Yuhao was already starved for love. He was deeply moved by the care shown to him by Shrek Academy.

Just like in the original story, he regarded Shrek Academy as his home and valued the so-called eternal glory of Shrek Academy extremely highly.

But all in all, Shrek did achieve his goal of bluffing people.

All the academy teams had solemn expressions.

Although everyone secretly thought that six 100,000-year spirit rings were a bit far-fetched, their preconceived notions about Shrek Academy prevented them from being too firm in their doubts.

So much so that Shrek and his friends' idea of ​​playing tricks actually had a pretty good effect.

"Captain Ling, is this true...?"

The girl with dark purple hair and a few freckles on her face watched the Shrek Academy team leave the field and couldn't help but ask Ling Shuang for her opinion.

The rest of the Star Luo Royal Academy team all looked at Ling Shuang simultaneously.

Clearly, through the incident with Huang Heyun, Ling Shuang has become the de facto captain of the Star Luo Royal Academy team. That's why they subconsciously turn their attention to Ling Shuang when they encounter uncertain situations.

Ling Shuang crossed her arms and calmly withdrew her gaze: "Just a bunch of idiots, all for show."

really!

Upon hearing Ling Shuang's words, the Star Luo Royal Academy team members, whose resolve had been wavering, immediately calmed down.

They didn't ask why, they just inexplicably believed that Ling Shuang must have seen through the problem.

The pressure decreased sharply.

At the same time, the voice came through the broadcast soul tool again:
"The next match will be between Xingluo Royal Academy and Zhouxi Academy. Please bring your teams into the arena!"

"Let's go."

Ling Shuang stretched lazily and took the lead.

The members of the Star Luo Royal Academy team followed suit, their faces filled with excitement.

We'll see Captain Ling make his move soon!
