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

Chapter 289 Shrek Academy VS Holy Spirit Sect (3 words)

Zheng Zhan was somewhat embarrassed.

He was known as the Unbreakable Douluo, and his greatest skill was defense. However, ever since he took on the position of chief referee, everything seemed to go wrong for him, as if the referee profession was cursed.

Could there really be some kind of curse?

Zheng Zhan felt a chill run down his spine.

Regardless, Ade's recent death was indeed partly due to his failure to protect him in time.

Zheng Zhan paused for two seconds, then said, "Regardless of the circumstances, his accidental death during the match is a fact. Your actions just now were indeed a violation of the rules by ambushing your opponent, so you will still be judged as the loser in this match. If your Mingyu Sect can participate in team battles in the future, then you can play again."

"Heh." Captain Mingyuzong sneered twice.

With Bei Bei, a Soul Saint, around, how can the remaining members of the Mingyu Sect defeat him and start a team battle?

"No need, Mingyu Sect concedes defeat." The Mingyu Sect captain's voice was somewhat cold when he said this.

Shrek Academy only has Bei Bei left. With Mingyu Sect conceding defeat, it's equivalent to Bei Bei achieving a seven-kill streak and directly winning all the points.

Wang Yan clenched his fist in the audience. Shrek Academy had enough points now. As long as they played steadily in the upcoming battle against the Holy Spirit Sect, they could still fight their way out of the next round based on points.

On the platform, looking at the captain of the Mingyu Sect, who was completely shrouded in black robes, and Bei Bei on the other side, the Grand Preceptor suddenly chuckled: "Interesting, very interesting. Xiao Feng, bring that captain of the Mingyu Sect directly to me later. I think she must really want to avenge her brother."

"Since they are siblings, I suppose she also possesses the Vampire Bat Martial Soul?" Xu Tianran said with a faint smile.

"No, that's not the case." The Grand Preceptor shook his head. "Although she only made that one move, her martial spirit might be stronger than Ade's vampire bat."

A glint of light flashed in Xu Tianran's eyes, and he smiled and said, "Then congratulations to the Grand Preceptor for gaining such a good disciple."

With the captain of the Mingyu Sect valuing her younger brother so much, and with the National Preceptor's guidance, he will undoubtedly become a powerful weapon against Shrek Academy in the future.

After the battle between Shrek Academy and Mingyu Sect, two more matches were played, and it was the turn of the Hall of Light and Mingyu Sect to fight.

Surprisingly, the captain of Mingyu Sect didn't even fight this time, and directly announced his defeat.

As a result, Mingyu Sect is basically doomed to fail to qualify.

Wang Dong'er guessed what Captain Ming Yuzong was thinking.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. The captain of Mingyu Sect clearly knew that he could not defeat the Hall of Light, and since the Hall of Light was the only team that had been able to overpower Shrek Academy so far, it would be better to send the Hall of Light directly to the next round.

Mingyu Sect directly conceded defeat to the Hall of Light, while Shrek Academy's situation turned red again.

They are all team members with Soul Saint cultivation, so why don't they admit defeat to Shrek Academy?

At the beginning, Mingyu Sect and Shrek Academy had no conflict!

Or, if the order of Shrek Academy and the Hall of Light were reversed, and the Hall of Light fought Mingyu Sect at the beginning, would Mingyu Sect then admit defeat to Shrek Academy later?
But no matter how much they gained favor, they couldn't change the situation. The fact was that the Temple of Light won the game without lifting a finger, taking all twelve points, while Shrek Academy still had to face the formidable enemy, the Holy Spirit Sect.

"Damn it, why don't we just stop fighting and let the Holy Spirit Sect and the Hall of Light fight each other!" He Caitou clenched his fist. "The Holy Spirit Sect is not weak and will definitely be able to wear down the Hall of Light's fighting force. The Holy Spirit Sect will also suffer casualties. A draw would be the best outcome for us, and we would have an advantage in the later matches."

Upon hearing He Caitou's words, Beibei and Wang Yan both fell into deep thought, then looked up at the same time, but gave completely different answers.

"no!"

"There's still time, let me think about it."

The first sentence was said by Beibei, and the second sentence was said by the king.

Upon hearing that Wang Yan wanted to consider He Caitou's thoughts, Bei Bei said, "Teacher Wang, I hid my strength as you asked before, but what did I get in return? We were defeated by the Hall of Light twice. The first time, we could say that we had a small margin of safety, but the second time we failed because of my hesitation. If I hadn't hidden my strength at that time, the outcome would have been uncertain."

Wang Yan was speechless for a moment. He told you to conserve your strength for the finals, not to hesitate about whether to use it. If you hesitated, you would have lost.

However, Wang Yan did not expect that Bei Bei's dilemma was not the Eight Spider Lances, but her second martial soul.

Only Bei Bei herself knew about the existence of her second martial soul; no one else was aware of it.

"Furthermore, Teacher Wang Yan, you said you were observing your opponents, but you didn't remind me that Mingyu Sect has such opponents."

"I'm just one person, and I can't observe every match," Wang Yan explained.

Beibei didn't elaborate on the topic, but instead said, "In short, we can't just surrender without playing a single game; we need to at least get a few more points."

"Only in this way can we maximize our chances of qualifying."

“The other party might be an evil spirit master…” Wang Yan hesitated, “What if they have some strange methods…”

"Don't worry, Teacher Wang. Don't forget who my great-grandfather was. Evil spirit masters are no match for me!"

“Uh…” Wang Yan opened his mouth, but still didn’t speak. “You must be careful in everything you do. You must pay attention to the other party’s methods. Once you realize something is wrong, you must admit defeat immediately! The Death Messenger incident must not happen again.” Wang Yan said earnestly.

Beibei nodded emphatically.

Wang Yan felt a little relieved, but couldn't help looking around again.

Where did Elder Xuan go?
in the afternoon.

As the round-robin tournament draws to a close, the first group of the "group of death" will see Shrek Academy face off against the Holy Spirit Sect.

Like the Mingyu Sect, the captain of the Holy Spirit Sect also did not make a move.

Nine people from the Holy Spirit Sect came to the rest area. In addition to the seven team members who participated in the competition, there were two team leaders, who looked like a man and a woman.

What puzzled Beibei was that the man and woman leading the Holy Spirit Sect seemed to have a faint sense of familiarity, but she couldn't quite put her finger on where it came from.

The sense of familiarity was so faint, so faint, that Beibei thought it was just her imagination.

"Grand Preceptor, which team do you think will win this match, the Holy Spirit Sect or Shrek Academy?"

On the platform, Xu Tianran turned his head and asked.

The Imperial Advisor chuckled lightly: "Does Your Highness believe that the Holy Sect's forces are inferior to a force that merely fills up with three Soul Masters?"

Xu Tianran nodded slightly and said, "Then we'll wait and see."

In this match between the Holy Spirit Sect team and the Shrek Academy team, Xu Tianran himself did not favor the Holy Spirit Sect team.

Although he had a close relationship with the Holy Spirit Cult, he did not like this evil soul master sect, and the two sides were merely using each other, not true allies.

The reason for including the Holy Spirit Sect team was to use them to clear obstacles for the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

However, even without intervening, it would be easy for the Holy Spirit Church to send a team to participate.

The Holy Spirit Cult has a history of similar tactics in the Soul Fighting Tournament.

However, if the Holy Spirit Sect team really wins against Shrek Academy, there will still be some public pressure.

After all, facing Bei Bei, a Soul Saint, the members of the Holy Spirit Sect team would definitely have to use some of their hidden abilities.

Originally, only the participating teams and some discerning spectators had doubts about the Holy Spirit Sect in the previous battles, but if they exposed too much in this battle against Shrek Academy, then even the ignorant ordinary people would have doubts.

Xu Tianran was merely using the Holy Spirit Cult; he had no intention of causing too much harm to the Sun Moon Empire because of the Holy Spirit Cult.

"Holy Spirit Sect Team, Shrek Academy Team, both teams' players, enter the waiting area." Zheng Zhan's voice came through the amplified soul tool.

These days, he doesn't personally referee all the matches; he only takes the stage for those matches where the overall strength is high and ordinary referees can't handle them.

Of all these competitions, only the ones involving Shrek Academy were ones that he failed to control well.

Zheng Zhan felt a little melancholy, wondering what would happen in this match.

He gets annoyed whenever he hears the words "referee" or "Shrek Academy".

"Individual elimination match, first round, players from both teams take the court."

On the Holy Spirit Sect's side, a short young man named Jili appeared. His eyes were dark green and, upon closer inspection, were constantly changing, which was quite eerie.

On Shrek Academy's side, the first to appear was not Beibei, but He Caitou.

Wang Yan had been watching several battles of the Holy Spirit Sect team. So far, he had not seen any Soul King level figures among the Holy Spirit Sect team members, and in team battles, like the Mingyu Sect team, not all of them participated.

To be on the safe side, he specifically instructed Beibei not to be the first to appear. Otherwise, if Beibei was worn down by the Holy Spirit Sect, what would happen if the others encountered the captain of the Holy Spirit Sect?
The person who appeared was Jili, whom Wang Yan had observed before. His martial soul was a kind of martial soul called Brain Eater.

Brain-eating beasts once appeared in the south of Douluo Continent. They lived by sucking the brains of various creatures, whether human, animal, or spirit beast, and were among the most vicious spirit beasts.

Because of the immense influence of the Brain-Eating Beasts, the Star Luo Empire had to organize special forces to hunt down these soul beasts, almost driving them to extinction.

Wang Yan never imagined that there would be humans who possessed a martial soul like the Brain-Eating Beast.

Recalling what Wang Yan had once said, He Caitou stared intently at Jili.

The brain-eating beast is not only incredibly strong, but also has amazing defense and speed. Its most powerful killing move is its tongue, which it launches with tremendous force.

However, brain-eating beasts are not good at ranged attacks, so when hunting brain-eating beasts, the Star Luo Empire usually suppresses and kills them from a distance.

As it happens, He Caitou, as a Soul Master, is best at long-range combat.
