Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 289 The Semifinals Arrive

After rescuing Jiang Nannan from the most dangerous siege, Xu Sanshi grinned, and the dark light shone again as the Xuanming Replacement was activated.

The next instant, Dai Yueheng, with her flowing short golden hair, bulging muscles, and black horizontal lines on her skin, appeared in the core area of ​​the Douling team.

"Drink!"

Dai Yueheng unleashed his fourth soul skill with great brilliance, unleashing a terrifying White Tiger Meteor Shower that burst forth with countless fist-sized golden orbs of light centered on his body.

These meteors each possess one-tenth of their own soul power, making them extremely powerful area-of-effect attacks, perfect for dealing with the Douling Academy members who were still somewhat unsteady on their feet.

Golden meteors rained down on the crowd, instantly throwing the bewildered Douling Academy students into disarray, making it impossible for them to mount an effective counterattack.

The reason is simple: the single shot fired from that thunderous cannon had almost completely drained the soul power from these people's bodies.

The two Soul Kings had just managed to unleash two Soul Skills, only to have them forcibly interrupted by Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Zhen.

The students from Douling Academy are currently completely powerless to resist!

In an instant, even the four Soul Kings of Douling Academy were blasted into the air by Dai Yueheng's White Tiger Meteor Shower. The sounds of explosions and cries of surrender rose and fell, completely ending Douling Academy's foolish idea of ​​taking revenge on Jiang Nannan.

To be honest, Chen Ping didn't intend to rely on Xu Sanshi and Jiang Nannan so much in the game.

In his tactical plan, using these two as surprise troops once each to help the team overcome a difficult situation was already an unexpected bonus.

The problem is that this Douling Academy really treats people like fools.

Zhengtian Academy has already used the shield-stabbing tactic once, and it was countered by Shrek Academy. It's one thing for Douling Academy to use similar tactics against other academies, but they insist on using it against Shrek Academy.

If Chen Ping didn't use Jiang Nannan and Xu Sanshi to trick them, he would be letting down the boss's Thunder Cannon, which could drain the soul power of all the students in the Douling Battle Team.

No disaster is greater than underestimating the enemy; underestimating the enemy can lead to the loss of our treasure.

Everyone knows the old sayings are true, but how many people can truly understand and apply these well-worn truths?
It's obvious that the Douling Academy, which simply chose to reinforce its own shell, doesn't understand the underlying principles, just like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.

They arrogantly and presumptuously devised a tactic that would easily defeat Shrek Academy, but the end result was that the Shrek Academy members turned the tables and easily defeated them.

"Hehe, Nan Nan, how was my quick thinking about saving the day? Hehe."

For Xu Sanshi, being able to claim credit from Jiang Nannan seemed more worthy of celebration than easily winning the match.

The rest of the Shrek Academy members felt it was all too real. They had just won against Douling Academy, one of the top four teams from the previous season, so easily?

It wasn't until the referee spat out the two Soul Masters from the mouths of the Fighting Spirit Academy, deactivated their Martial Soul True Forms, and announced the result of the match that the Shrek Academy members finally believed that they had indeed won, and won quite easily.

However, these are probably the few games that Shrek will be able to win easily in the end.

After a day of rest, there's not much to say about facing the individual elimination match against the Douling team.

Even in order to conceal Ma Xiaotao's strength and to prevent the evil fire within Ma Xiaotao from reigniting too quickly, Wang Yan only allowed Dai Yueheng to participate, and the Shrek team easily advanced to the quarterfinals.

Yao Haoxuan, who was once heavily armed and had achieved a record of defeating seven opponents single-handedly, has lost the audience's attention due to his increasingly infrequent appearances. Yao Haoxuan was actually quite happy with this situation, after all, he was a rare control and support type Soul Master even in Shrek Academy. The reason he fought so hard in the previous battles was simply because the reserve team members, who were at the highest level of four rings, couldn't hold on any longer.

Now that there are powerful figures blocking his way, Yao Haoxuan has no desire to risk his life.

At this time, he would sit backstage with Ma Xiaotao every day to watch the battle, and he would chuckle as he watched over Ma Xiaotao and Beibei, the two patients, to prevent them from sneaking onto the battle arena.

"I'm going to talk to Elder Xuan and ask him to bring Yuhao to me."

Ma Xiaotao couldn't take it anymore and jumped up.

She and Dai Yueheng returned on the same day, but Dai Yueheng has already played several matches, while she has only managed to unleash one Phoenix Fireline!

The reason she was so eager to have Huo Yuhao come was mainly because only with Huo Yuhao present could someone continuously suppress her evil fire, allowing her to fight spirits with unrestrained energy.

Upon hearing this, Chen Ping merely glanced at the girl with a playful expression.

Ma Xiaotao was immediately disheartened. It was obvious that what she had just said was meant for Chen Ping.

Despite the loud words she spoke earlier, she wouldn't dare to actually say them to Elder Xuan. Currently, Chen Ping is the only one in the entire Shrek team who can command Elder Xuan.

Unless Chen Ping speaks up, who would make Elder Xuan travel all that way just to bring someone over?

"Alright, Senior Xiaotao, just sit still. The main reason we're not letting you make your appearance now is to hide your soul skills."

"If you maintain your current form, you can at least play five rounds of matches at full strength. We'll arrange for you to play after the semifinals. That's enough."

Chen Ping rejected her request, so Ma Xiaotao could only angrily drink two sips of honeysuckle tea to cool her down, puff out her cheeks, and turn her head away from Chen Ping.

There was nothing she could do; she owed this kid her life. Otherwise, given her temper, she would have done it long ago.
Well, even if she really throws a tantrum, if Chen Ping doesn't intend to indulge her, it seems she really doesn't have any good solutions.
In addition to the individual match against Douling Academy, Shrek Academy also has an individual match against their old rival, Zhengtian Academy.

The result can be imagined.

With three more regular players, Shrek was simply no match for them, and they could only watch as Shrek advanced to the semifinals.

The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament is nearing its end.

And the epilogue also signifies the arrival of the climax.

Ma Xiaotao, who had not made a move until now, and Bei Bei, who had been recuperating from her injuries, were finally able to appear on the Soul Battle Stage after releasing their bloodline power.

Shrek's fighting strength has reached its peak at this moment.

Unlike the previous semifinals, there was no grouping or opponent determination process. All four teams were in the same pool, and they immediately faced off after the draw.

This is not only a test of each college's ability to perform under pressure, but also a test of their information gathering and sustained operational capabilities.

Therefore, this strategic meeting before the semi-finals lasted for nearly three hours, from lunch to dinner, and only ended when the sun was slowly setting.
