Douluo Continent: Now that everyone's been reborn, who's still going to be a simp?

"Your Holiness, what should we do next?"

Bibi Dong gave a cold smile.

"If you encounter Shrek Academy in the competition, you don't need to show any mercy to Tang San. If you can take care of him, that would be even better."

"Your Holiness, we know what to do."

Bibi Dong harbored murderous intent towards Tang San.

Although the competition has rules against causing death.

But swords have no eyes, especially in the fierce finals, where everyone will give it their all, and who can guarantee that no accidents will happen?

If Tang San dies in the Soul Master Competition, Tang Hao will definitely seek revenge on the Spirit Hall, which is what Bibi Dong wants to see.

Bibi Dong's soul power has reached level ninety-nine, and she needs a strong person to verify her strength.

If she could kill Tang Hao with her own hands, she could further solidify her position in the Spirit Hall and gain the support of more elders.

Of course, with Yu Xiaogang, Ning Fengzhi, Dugu Bo, and others around, killing Tang San wouldn't be so easy.

Bibi Dong continued:

"This is a secret mission, but don't put too much pressure on yourselves. Even if we fail to kill Tang San, severely injuring him would be good enough."

"Yes!"

"There's one more thing I need to remind you: if you really encounter Shrek Academy, don't be careless. Although they are only ranked fifth in the Heaven Dou Academy region, that doesn't represent their full strength. With the theoretical master Yu Xiaogang around, anything is possible."

"understand!"

Bibi Dong's words further fueled Xie Yue and Hu Liena's fighting spirit, and both of them wanted to meet Tang San as soon as possible.

Yan remained calm throughout. He understood Tang San and the people from Shrek Academy, and he was confident that he could defeat them.

The three then left the Papal Palace together.

As we walked along the road, we discussed it together.

Xie Yue suggested:

"Tomorrow, let's see which academy we're drawn as our opponents. If the opponents aren't strong, the three of us can hold off on playing and not reveal our strength too early."

"it is good."

Yan answered casually.

Hu Liena continued:

"After the second round of the competition, only ten teams will remain, which will be the top ten teams in this Soul Master Competition. Therefore, starting from the third round, we will all have to take the stage."

"Yes, Nana is right."

As Xie Yue spoke, he looked at Yan beside him and suggested:

"Brother Yan, if we really run into the Shrek Academy team, you hold off the others while Nana and I use our Spirit Fusion Technique to deal with Tang San, and then we'll take him down without anyone noticing. How about that?"

"it is good."

Yan answered without hesitation, seemingly not wanting to compete with the two of them for the credit.

Xie Yue's suggestion seemed reasonable. When he and Hu Liena joined forces to unleash their bewitching charm, a pink mist would spread throughout the area. No one knew what would happen inside that mist, and accidents were to be expected under such circumstances.

However, Yan knew that the two of them couldn't kill Tang San.

Because Tang San is a treacherous person, his methods of poisoning are extremely unpredictable and will be beyond their expectations.

Yan also knew that even if he told the siblings now, they still wouldn't be able to defend against Tang San's spider venom.

In the end, he had to take action himself.

He had already prepared for a one-against-seven situation.

~~~~~~~

After a day's rest, the second round of the competition continued.

In this round of competition, the top-ranked teams from both Empire regions received a bye.

Therefore, eight spots will be contested by three seeded teams and thirteen other teams to join the two teams that received a bye in the next round of the competition.

Yan and her teammates arrived at the rest area.

A short while later, Lin Zhendong also arrived.

"The draw results are in. Your opponents are the Sirius Academy of the Star Luo Empire, and you will be playing in the first group."

Upon learning that their opponent was Sirius Academy, everyone smiled knowingly.

Sirius Academy's overall strength is not strong. In the Star Luo Empire region, it is not even among the top five. The entire team only has two Battle Soul Masters above level 40.

Even the substitute players in the Spirit Hall Academy team have reached level 40 or above in spirit power.

Xie Yue asked:

"Teacher Lin, the three of us don't need to play against the Sirius Academy team, right?"

Lin Zhendong nodded and looked at his teammates.

"Then let Sun Chuantao lead the team. To ensure everything goes smoothly, Li Kai, Zhang Ping, and Xu Yu will all play. Don't underestimate the opponent just because they are weak."

"understand!"

Half an hour later, the first group's competition officially began.

There is only one venue for the finals, and all matches will be held here.

Located in the center of Wuhun City, the massive arena has a diameter of 100 meters and is entirely constructed of granite, reinforced by huge soul tools on all sides.

Only a wealthy and powerful organization like the Spirit Hall would spend so much resources to build such a competition venue.

The venue can only accommodate a small number of spectators. Most of them are social elites from the two great empires and soul masters from Wuhun City. Commoners are not qualified to come here to watch the battle.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the fourteen members of the Spirit Hall Academy team and the Sirius Academy team slowly walked onto the arena.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 73: The Spirit Hall Team's Crushing Victory

73.

When they saw the lineup of the Spirit Hall Academy team, everyone was stunned.

The rumored "Three Heroes of the Spirit Hall," namely the three young spirit masters who received the Purple Record Medal, were not present in this team.

Tang San stared intently at the people on the field, thinking to himself:

"This is already the second round of the competition. Even if the opponent is weak, we can't be so careless, can we? None of those three Soul Kings are going up. Do they really trust their teammates that much? This is a competition where losing one match means going home."

Around the arena, students from other academies shared the same question as Tang San.

However, as the host announced, the fourteen Soul Masters on the field released their respective Martial Souls and Soul Rings, and they realized that they had worried too much.

On the Sirius Academy team's side, there are only two four-ring Battle Soul Masters, while the other five are all three-ring Battle Soul Venerables.

On the Spirit Hall Academy team's side, all of them were four-ringed Soul Masters, and each of them had two yellow and two purple Soul Rings.

The two teams on the stage were vastly different in strength, and the outcome seemed predetermined the moment their martial spirits and spirit rings were released.

The Spirit Hall Academy team didn't even have time to exert their full strength before the match was over.

The students from the other academies were stunned by what they saw.

Just as rumored, no academy can rival the Spirit Hall Academy; every academy that encounters them will lose, and in a crushing defeat.

The people at Shrek Academy were incredulous.

Oscar sighed:

"The students at the Spirit Hall Academy are just too good. Even the substitute players have a spirit power of over level 40. With a team like that, it would be strange if they had any rivals!"

"Yeah, how are the other teams supposed to compete?"

Ma Hongjun was indignant and resentful.

Dugu Bo whispered in Tang San's ear:

"Little monster, this is the strength of the Spirit Hall Academy team. You should know that those three Soul Kings haven't even appeared yet. No academy can overcome them to win the final championship unless a miracle happens."

Tang San's lips involuntarily twitched slightly.

"A miracle? Then let's create it."

"You want to create it? Little monsters, I'm not trying to discourage you, but when those three Soul Kings take the stage, you'll see what a disparity in strength really means."

"Really? Then I'd love to see them on the field soon."

No matter what kind of opponent he faces, Tang San is very confident.

He believed that Shrek Academy's Seven-in-One Fusion Skill would cause considerable trouble for Spirit Hall Academy, and might even defeat them.

Moreover, he has another trump card: his highly venomous spider venom, which ordinary soul masters simply cannot withstand.

Yan, Xie Yue, and Hu Liena greeted their teammates as they came down from the ring.
