Chapter 214 Seven Treasures Battle the Strange Beast

To defeat an opponent five, six, or even seven times in a row will inevitably nail the name of the opposing academy to the pillar of shame in the competition.

Although the two teams have their own grudges, they are not at the point of life or death, and they should give each other some face.

If the fight goes too far, it's bound to cause resentment.

The gun is easy to hide, and the dark arrow is hard to prevent.

Although the other party wouldn't dare to make a move during the Soul Master Competition, everyone still has a long road ahead.

Meng Shu is, after all, a senior figure in the Soul Master world. Offending him could lead to retaliation, which would be disastrous.

Feng Xiaotian and the others turned their gazes toward Wu Qi.

They were not afraid of Meng Shu's retaliation.

How many more years can a person with one foot in the grave live?
Moreover, Meng Shu should fear them. After all, Meng Shu cannot protect Meng Yiran forever.

If she offends them, Meng Yiran will have no way to survive in the future.

Sun Buyu's reminder made some sense, but the crowd wouldn't fully heed it.

Wu Qi said in a deep voice, "Xiaotian will go first, followed by Changkong, then Wushuang, and then it's up to you."

"I don't want to see Wushuang play in this match, understand?"

Feng Xiaotian laughed heartily, "If I take the stage first, I'm afraid Changkong won't need to fight."

The Beast Academy team only has three Soul Masters; the rest are all Soul Venerables.

With this kind of team configuration, they'll basically be eliminated in the first round if they make it to the finals, so there's nothing to worry about.

Of course, the opponent may not give you the chance to win seven games in one go. If things don't go well, you can always admit defeat, right?

On the other side, in the rest room of the Beast Squad.

Upon learning that their opponent was the Qibao team, Meng Yiran said indignantly, "Let me face off against Wu Qi. I want to see if he's as good as the rumors say."

“No, you must not!” Meng Shu advised.

As the financial backers behind the Beast Academy, the decisions of the Peerless Dragon and Snake couple can greatly influence the academy's tactics and strategies.

Who is Wu Qi? He is a prodigy recognized even by the imperial family. Meng Yiran is only a Soul Venerable. If she were to fight Wu Qi one-on-one, she would only suffer the consequences.

The team leader from the Beast Academy hurriedly said, "Senior Dragon Lord, with the strength of the Seven Treasures Team, if the first to appear is a Soul King level expert, they are very likely to try to defeat all seven opponents at once."

"For the honor of the college, please allow me to concede defeat at the appropriate time."

After being defeated four times in a row, even if Feng Xiaotian or Wu Qi had the strength to fight again, after they conceded defeat, no one thought that the other side could definitely defeat five times in a row.

After all, the match is over, and the subsequent results are just speculation.

……

Early the next morning.

Each team left the rest area and went to the audience seats in front of the arena.

With no outside audience members, the seating area felt very spacious.

It is worth mentioning that the person representing the royal family today was neither Xue Ye nor Xue Qinghe, but Prince Xue Xing.

Their attitude toward the qualifiers can be seen from the selection of royal representatives.

It's important to know that apart from the Qibao team, none of the other teams in the entire qualifiers had a Soul King.

In one-on-one matches, individual skill is especially important. How could a team with two Soul Kings possibly lose a match?

Now that the results are already known, the viewing experience of the qualifying rounds will inevitably be greatly reduced.

All participating teams sat in the same audience section, creating a tense atmosphere due to the rivalries between them. The first match of the day was between Shrek Academy and Barak Academy.

In the original timeline, Xiao Wu possessed the Acacia Heartbreak Red Herb and, through the power of this immortal herb, easily defeated her opponent by cheating.

With Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong's sharp eyesight, how could they not see that they were cheating?
To reiterate, both Ning Fengzhi and the Heaven Dou Empire were paying attention to the Shrek Academy team, and since Yu Xiaogang had produced the Pope's decree from the Spirit Hall, Salas didn't dare to openly oppose them. That's why he turned a blind eye and let them pass through.

Now, if they cheat in any way, they will definitely be eliminated.

The Barak Academy team is far stronger than the Beast Academy team.

The final score of the match was 5 to 7.

Although the two sides seemed evenly matched, Wu Qi knew that Tang San and Dai Mubai had not yet made their appearance.

Yu Tianheng, the fifth player to appear, accomplished the feat of defeating three opponents in a row, ending the match.

If Shrek's order of appearance were reversed, Team Barak would only lose even more miserably.

Of course, the grudge between Barak Academy and Shrek Academy is the former one. Now that Flander and Ma Hongjun are gone, Tang San and his group don't need to inherit their grudges.

Tang San ultimately did not participate in this match, and Wu Qi did not know whether Tang San's strength had improved during this month-long rest period.

……

About half an hour later, it was the turn of the Seven Treasures Team to compete against the Beast Academy Team.

During the pre-match etiquette ceremony, both teams stepped onto the ring and shook hands.

Meng Yiran, as the vice-captain of the Beast Team, stood at the front of the team and took the initiative to approach Wu Qi, saying with a provocative look, "Wu Qi, do you dare to fight me in the first match?"

Wu Qi shrugged. "Provocation won't work on me. We'll just take the field one by one according to the pre-match plan."

"If you have enough strength to defeat those who came before me, you will naturally be able to wait for my appearance."

Meng Yiran was about to berate the other party when she was stopped by the captain of the Beast Academy team. "Yiran, you mustn't be impolite. This is the competition venue, and the royal family and the Spirit Hall are watching."

Meng Yiran glared at the other person fiercely, but had no choice but to give up.

After the etiquette ceremony, the other members of each team left the stage, leaving only the first player to take the stage.

Before leaving, Wu Qi patted Feng Xiaotian on the shoulder and said softly, "Xiaotian, it's up to you now. Remember, the arena has expanded, so don't get too entangled with your opponent to avoid depleting your energy."

A smile appeared on Feng Xiaotian's lips. "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I won't give Changkong a chance to appear."

After all the players from both sides left the field, the referee immediately announced the start of the match.

Below the arena, a teacher from the Beast Academy approached Meng Yiran with a wry smile.

“Yiran, based on the results of yesterday’s discussion with Senior Long Gong, the Seven Treasures Team is likely to try to defeat us five or even six times. You should not encounter Wu Qi.”

"We will concede defeat at the appropriate time in this match."

The Beast Academy is, after all, their own business. No matter how willful Meng Yiran is, she can't ruin their reputation.

She glared at Wu Qi resentfully, but then acquiesced to the team leader's suggestion.

The first member of the Beast Academy team to take the stage was a Soul Master, who faced off against Feng Xiaotian, a Soul King.

This person had a clear goal: he would not confront Feng Xiaotian head-on, but instead planned to dodge constantly to wear down Feng Xiaotian's physical strength and soul power, thus creating an opportunity for his teammates to eliminate the opponent.

Unfortunately, Feng Xiaotian is an agility-type Soul Master, while this person is only a defense-type Soul Master.

As soon as the match began, Feng Xiaotian sprouted wings from his back and instantly appeared in front of the man.

In just one exchange, he threw him out of the ring.

Qibao team leads 1-0.
