Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 167 Tang Clan's Competition

Looking at the many skewers of meat still uneaten in her hand, Zhang Lexuan smiled wryly and said, "Take it easy, we still have a lot left to eat!"

Lin Chen then stopped buying.

"Why did you buy so many? We can't let them go to waste!" Zhang Lexuan said, and Lin Chen had no choice but to go on a rampage showing off the skewers he had bought earlier.

The two strolled around until late at night before returning to their hotel to rest.

That night, Lin Chen and Zhang Lexuan both slept exceptionally well.

……

The Continental Elite Youth Soul Master Tournament has entered its second round, and the competition is becoming increasingly fierce. The remaining eighty-four teams are battling it out in pairs. After the first day of competition, twenty-one teams have already successfully advanced. And as long as they advance from this round of elimination matches, it means that they have one foot in the round-robin stage.

The Tang Clan's match was scheduled for the afternoon of the following day. They didn't go to the match venue in the morning, choosing instead to rest at the hotel. The Shrek Academy members, however, took turns observing their opponents.

After lunch and a short rest, the Tang Clan members set off for the competition venue when it was almost time.

The rest area was noticeably quieter, no longer feeling crowded, but the number of spectators continued to increase, as they thoroughly enjoyed the intense elimination matches over the past few days.

Huo Yuhao had already devised the tactics yesterday, so there wasn't much to instruct today. In the VIP lounge, his attention was focused on several teams he had been monitoring. To his surprise, even now, he still couldn't be completely certain which team truly represented the Body Sect.

The team he had originally targeted was eliminated in yesterday afternoon's match. How could the Body Sect make such a basic mistake? Therefore, he had to find a new target.

The Holy Spirit Sect members didn't come this afternoon; they competed this morning and have already advanced. Although the Tang Clan members didn't see the competition, they could guess that it wouldn't be too long.

That's another person killed!

On the contrary, the Shrek Academy team, having already qualified, came to the VIP lounge to watch the match this afternoon. Undoubtedly, they were there specifically for the Tang Sect game.

As soon as Huo Yuhao sat down, he felt Wang Qiu'er's calm yet somewhat cold gaze look at him.

He smiled and nodded at her, but Wang Qiu'er immediately turned her head away in a cold response. Huo Yuhao couldn't help but touch his nose, feeling like he'd been given the cold shoulder.

On the contrary, Wu Feng and Dai Huabin kept their eyes fixed on the Tang Clan, their expressions were very unfriendly, and one could even see a strong desire to fight in their eyes.

Huo Yuhao shook his head helplessly. Was it really necessary? We all came from the same academy.

"Alright, we're here to watch the game, stop looking like you want to fight all the time." Just then, Lin Chen's voice rang out.

Only then did Dai Huabin and the others, whose eyes gleamed with fighting spirit, settle down and sit down obediently.

The afternoon's matches progressed to the fifth game, and it was finally Tang Clan's turn to fight.

"Tang Clan versus Iron Sword Clan. Both teams, enter the waiting area. The first individual match participants, come to the stage." With the referee's call, the Tang Clan members stood up one after another. Wang Dong'er pushed Huo Yuhao at the front, and together with their companions, they entered the waiting area.

Bei Bei also came. As a member of the Tang Clan, he was the one who most wanted the Tang Clan to improve, so naturally he came to the competition to contribute to the Tang Clan.

Xu Sanshi leaped up and onto the metal-paved competition platform, striding to the center of the platform.

The Iron Sword Sect was a completely unfamiliar name to the Tang Clan, but their ability to pass the first round of elimination matches must mean they had something special about them.

The girl who came up from the Iron Sword Sect was tall and slender with delicate features and long black hair that was draped behind her head. She was both gentle and heroic.

Upon seeing that his opponent was actually a girl, Xu Sanshi's eyes widened instantly, and he subconsciously swallowed.

This guy is still incorrigible; he seems unable to move when he sees a beautiful woman.

"snort!"

Jiang Nannan, sitting below the stage, let out a cold snort, and Xu Sanshi on the stage instantly withdrew his gaze from the Iron Sword Sect girl.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Sanshi defeated Wang Chengxi of the Iron Sword Sect with absolute strength, and Wang Chengxi even had twin martial souls.

Xu Sanshi turned around with a swagger, held up two fingers to his own waiting area to indicate victory, then turned back to the opponents with a flourish and shouted, "Next!"

The referee couldn't take it anymore and yelled, "What are you shouting for? Do you think you're me, carrying around a voice transmission soul tool? Let me tell you, inside this soul tool shield, no one's voice can get out except mine."

Are you the referee and I'm the referee? Do you think I'm invisible? You've already shown off all that, so don't I lose face?

"Next match, please send someone from the Iron Sword Sect!" the referee announced.

The Iron Sword Sect's second member to enter the arena quickly followed, this time a young man. His face was clearly filled with anger, and he immediately demanded of Xu Sanshi, "What did you do to our senior sister?"

Xu Sanshi said earnestly, "To prevent her from hurting herself, I'm letting her sleep for a while. Don't worry, she'll definitely wake up in a day at most."

The young man from the Iron Sword Sect was taken aback for a moment, then said, "He only woke up after a whole day? What are we going to do in the team battle later? Senior Sister is our captain, without her, we..."

Xu Sanshi: Are you out of your mind? I knocked her out because I didn't want her to participate in the team battle! Can't you see how obvious that is?

The spectators below the stage looked at the young man from the Iron Sword Sect with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot.

"Dude, are you here to put on a show for me?"

"Acting? Acting my ass! I'll fight you to the death!" The young man from the Iron Sword Sect seemed to have realized what was happening and suddenly charged at Xu Sanshi.

Unfortunately, he was stopped by the referee the next moment.

Faced with such a cute and even naive young man, Xu Sanshi would never show any mercy.

The battle began quickly, and the second young man from the fourth-ring Soul Sect to step onto the stage only lasted for less than two minutes before falling to Xu Sanshi's shield.

Even Wang Chengxi, the genius girl from the Iron Sword Sect and captain, lost, let alone little Karami.

After the second match, as agreed beforehand, Xu Sanshi conceded defeat, stepped down from the stage, and gave the third match to his partner.

The Iron Sword Sect's strength seemed to be mainly concentrated on Wang Chengxi. For the Tang Sect, the following matches were like cutting melons and vegetables, encountering virtually no resistance. As for the final team battle, it was an even more crushing victory.

Among them, He Caitou, Huo Yuhao, and Wang Dong'er didn't even have to lift a finger; Xu Sanshi, along with Jiang Nannan, Xiao Xiao, and Nana, finished the battle.
