Douluo: The Peerless King Dong'er's Restarted Life

Chapter 267 Shrek Academy's High Spirits (3 words)

On the second day of the first round of the competition, Shrek Academy finally got to show off.

Their opponents were a sect team called the Heavenly Armor Sect.

On Shrek Academy's side, Wang Yan only hid Bei Bei, and the rest of the regular players plus substitute Zhou Sichen took to the field.

Shrek Academy originally had two stronger substitutes from the senior year, but unfortunately they died in the mouths of soul beasts when Xuanzi led the soul hunt, so they could only let Zhou Sichen, the strongest of the substitutes, take the field.

After all, they can tactically concede defeat in the later round-robin matches, but it would be much less impressive if they lost in the earlier knockout matches.

How could the top academy on the continent lose in the knockout stage?

Therefore, Wang Yan can only hide Bei Bei at most, and the other regular team members must play.

The referee was a Soul Saint-level Soul Master who had been waiting in the center of the arena for a long time. With the shouts of the old master of ceremonies on the podium, the Shrek Academy and Tianjia Sect teams entered the waiting area.

Upon hearing the name Shrek Academy, most of the audience booed.

Although most people didn't have a good impression of Shrek Academy because they belonged to the Sun Moon Empire, some people still remembered the previous Soul Battle Tournament held in Star Luo City, even though it had been five years. The boos were a result of Shrek Academy's cheating.

Some of the students from those college teams who had participated in the previous competition also came here and became team leaders for their respective colleges.

Those who had left Shrek Academy to join other schools have also come here.

They were once just spectators at the Soul Fighting Tournament, but now they've become part of the competition.

However, Wang Yan, Bei Bei, and the others had clearly forgotten these people long ago; they had never remembered their names or appearances.

But as long as those people scanned the area where Shrek Academy was located, they could notice familiar faces such as Wang Yan, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou.

Through word of mouth, Shrek Academy's "great achievements" in the previous competition gradually became known.

The Tianjia Sect, which had already entered the waiting zone, was unaware of these things. Although they were a reclusive sect, they had long heard of Shrek Academy, the number one academy on the continent.

As the team leader, Han Zhanhu immediately instructed Tianjia Sect to try to win a few points in the elimination rounds, and then use their trump cards in the team battles to deal with Shrek Academy.

"Next, the first player from each side will take the stage in the individual elimination round."

As soon as the old master of ceremonies finished speaking, a tall and strong young man jumped onto the stage from the Tianjia Sect, while Dai Huabin appeared from the Shrek Academy side.

"Shrek Academy, Tang Sect, Dai Huabin."

"Han Yu from the Heavenly Armor Sect." Han Yu glanced at Dai Huabin with some surprise.

With both Shrek Academy and Tang Sect present, are they representing the academy or the sect?

The referee was also a little confused, but didn't ask any further questions. Anyway, the registration form said Shrek Academy, so he could say whatever he wanted.

After both sides announced their names, the referee briefly explained the rules of the competition, emphasizing that no intentional killing was allowed, and then asked the two to step back to the edge of the competition platform.

Dai Huabin's expression remained calm, but his heart was surging with excitement.

Representing Shrek Academy in the battle, representing Tang Sect in the battle!
His older brother, Dai Yueheng, was older than him when he represented Shrek Academy in the competition!
He was also at the Soul Emperor level.

A surge of fighting spirit erupted from Dai Huabin, whose sinister eyes fixed on Han Yu. The moment to show off was finally about to arrive!

"Game start!"

As soon as the referee's voice fell, Dai Huabin pounced forward like a tiger, his six spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—appearing, his White Tiger Martial Spirit possessing him.

Han Yu was startled, but he did not panic. Instead, he calmly released his martial soul, and hexagonal armor plates flew out of his body and then combined in front of him to form a hexagonal shield. The five soul rings in the best ratio also appeared.

These sects are called sects, but they are basically large families. There are very few sects like the Body Sect that are not truly based on bloodline inheritance.

The Heavenly Armor Sect's family-inherited martial spirit is the Heavenly Armor Shield.

The two charged at each other. Dai Huabin slammed his tiger paw forward, while Han Yu thrust his Heavenly Armor Shield forward with all his might as well.

The difference between a Soul Emperor and a Soul King caused Han Yu to slide backward the moment he collided with Dai Huabin. His feet left heavy marks on the metal arena, and even the defensive Heavenly Armor Shield bore the grooves caused by Dai Huabin's tiger claws.

Upon seeing this, Xu Sanshi, who was in the waiting area, sneered and said, "It seems that the shield of the Heavenly Armor Sect is not very good. It doesn't even have one-tenth of my defensive power."

Wang Yan glanced at Xu Sanshi but didn't say anything. He had a feeling that Bei Bei and the others were getting a little arrogant. Although they could now possess considerable power without relying on He Caitou's cigars to cheat, Xu Sanshi's contempt was too strong; it was a genuine disdain from the bottom of his heart.

Born into Shrek Academy and possessing a martial soul that has now evolved into the Xuanwu Shield, Xu Sanshi certainly has the right to underestimate his opponents. However, in a competition, such underestimation could very well cost him dearly.

On the competition stage, the battle continued. After the initial probing, Dai Huabin no longer hesitated and immediately unleashed his second soul skill, White Tiger Blazing Light Wave. A beam of white light instantly shot out from Dai Huabin's wide-open tiger's mouth.

Han Yu had already noticed Dai Huabin's actions, and his first and second spirit rings lit up one after the other.

Although there is a gap between Soul King and Soul Emperor, Han Yu was confident that Dai Huabin's second soul skill could not completely break through his Heavenly Armor Shield's defense.

The surface of the Heavenly Armor Shield suddenly became as smooth as a mirror. When the White Tiger's Blazing Light Wave arrived, the armor plates emitted strange fluctuations. Then, at the same time as the White Tiger's Blazing Light Wave, they reflected a large number of tiny white lights, thus dissipating the impact of the White Tiger's Blazing Light Wave.

Then, sixteen hexagonal armor plates shot out from the edge of the Heavenly Armor Shield, sweeping towards Dai Huabin. The edges of each armor plate gleamed with a chilling light, clearly as sharp as blades.

Han Yu's first soul skill can reflect long-range energy attacks, which is perfect for dealing with Dai Huabin's White Tiger Blazing Light Wave, while the flying armor plates are the effect of his second soul skill.

However, facing Han Yu's armor plate attack, Dai Huabin neither dodged nor avoided, but directly released his first soul skill, White Tiger Protective Barrier, to deflect the armor plates.

Seeing that his White Tiger Blazing Light Wave had no effect, Dai Huabin immediately changed tactics and began to fight Han Yu hand-to-hand with a reckless style, completely defeating Han Yu.

Next, Dai Huabin defeated another Soul Master from the Tianjia Sect, and Zhu Lu, who had already become a Soul King, took the stage. The Tianjia Sect also fielded another Soul Master.

After Zhu Lu won two matches, she substituted Xie Huanyue, who was still at the Soul King level, and he also won against two Soul Masters from the Tianjia Sect.

Among the Shrek Academy team, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou were members who had experienced or even personally participated in the previous Soul Fighting Tournament, while the remaining four had not experienced the baptism of the tournament. Therefore, Wang Yan made this arrangement.

The reason Wang Yan dared to arrange the training in this way was because a hidden Xuanzi had secretly informed him of the individual strength of the Tianjia Sect.

The captain of Tianjia Sect and Dai Huabin's first opponent, Han Yu, were both Soul Kings, while the rest were all Soul Masters. It can be said that in the Mingdu Tournament, where the overall strength has improved significantly compared to the previous tournament, Tianjia Sect is one of the weakest teams.

With six members of the Tianjia Sect eliminated, Captain Han Jianli immediately stood up and announced that they had conceded defeat in the individual elimination rounds, and both teams quickly moved on to the team competition.

Seeing that the Heavenly Armor Sect still had the idea of ​​continuing the team battle, Wang Yan narrowed his eyes.

What trump cards does the Heavenly Armor Sect possess that make them dare to challenge Shrek Academy instead of submitting to Shrek Academy's power?

Since Beibei wasn't going to compete, Xu Sanshi led everyone onto the competition stage.

Xu Sanshi and Dai Huabin stood at the front of the group, He Caitou and Zhu Lu stood on the flanks, Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan stood in the back row, and Xie Huanyue was responsible for protecting them.

Meanwhile, the Tianjia Sect set up an arc-shaped enveloping formation.

Although they looked pale from injuries sustained in the previous individual elimination rounds, they showed no signs of dejection, which infuriated Xu Sanshi.

Why do these people, who are less capable than them, still have such unrealistic fantasies?
Do they really think they can create miracles?

"The match begins!" The referee waved his right hand, and Xu Sanshi immediately released his evolved special martial soul, the Xuanwu Shield, with six soul rings appearing.

He Caitou also had six spirit rings appear, and his body instantly became a spirit tool fortress.

Besides Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, and Xie Huanyue, who have already played, Cao Jinxuan, the team's main controller, is also a Soul King, as is Zhou Sichen, who is a substitute.

With a team of at least four Soul Kings and three Soul Emperors, Shrek Academy's release of their Martial Souls immediately drew far fewer boos.

The seven people on the competition stage were quite satisfied with the reaction of the onlookers.

This is the kind of treatment Shrek students deserve!
However, in the brief moment they were stunned, the seven members of the Heavenly Armor Sect had already begun to take action.

Instead of charging forward, they shouted in unison, and the Heavenly Armor Shield Martial Souls they released were thrown out, disintegrating in mid-air.

"This is a seven-in-one?!" Wang Yan exclaimed, but quickly realized, "No, it's not a spirit fusion skill, it's just a spirit combination skill."

Despite this, Wang Yan's expression remained quite unpleasant.

On the competition stage, the seven Heavenly Armor Shields, transformed into countless hexagonal armor plates, began to converge towards the center, forming a giant Heavenly Armor Shield. At the same time, the armor plates began to turn bright red, and their surfaces became as smooth as mirrors.

Behind the massive Heavenly Armor Shield, the disciples of the Heavenly Armor Sect all had their fourth soul rings lit up, releasing intense soul power fluctuations.
