Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 178 Battle Against the Sun and Moon!

It's already quite an achievement to win this match without Lin Chen and Wang Qiu'er playing.

After watching a few more matches, Lin Chen and Zhang Lexuan returned to the hotel.

As for those who went on stage earlier, they have already been escorted back by Ma Xiaotao and Wang Qiu'er.

Many people are now speculating about what it would be like if the Tang Sect were to face the Shrek Academy team.

However, it's too early to say that now, because in the round-robin tournament, Tang Sect and Shrek Academy will meet in the final match.

Shrek Academy's schedule is quite favorable; they will face the Sun and Moon team in the penultimate round. Before that, there aren't many strong opponents.

Originally, Mingyu Sect was likely to become a stumbling block, but it was crippled by Tang Sect.

Inside a house...

"Don't worry, Master. Even if we encounter them in the quarterfinals, we will definitely kill them!" said the leading youth. The girl standing next to him was Tang Ya, who had been captured by Lin Chen that day.

Speaking of this, Lin Chen also regretted not leaving something on Tang Ya, which would have saved him some effort in the competition.

"Well, Xiao Lei, if you can lead the team to victory, I will bestow upon you the title of Holy Son," Zhongli Wu said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiaolei's eyes lit up, and he quickly expressed his gratitude.

The benefits of becoming a Holy Son are obvious. Not only does it mean receiving strong support and resources from the Holy Church, but he may even become the next leader. Moreover, the current Blue Silver Saintess is so beautiful that if he could cultivate with her, it would be a wonderful thing for him.

Zhongli Wu waved his hand, dismissing the Holy Spirit Cult members.

Wang Xiaolei walked into the darkness, a cruel smile playing on his lips. He said, "Lin Chen, you just wait. After I kill you, I will refine your soul for a thousand years to atone for the heinous crimes you committed against my Wang family!"

At night, Huo Yuhao, He Caitou, and Wang Dong'er walked down the street.

As the competition continues, the Tang Sect's strength has gradually become apparent in the Continental Elite Youth Soul Master Tournament, attracting attention from all sides, and their treatment has risen accordingly. However, they will undoubtedly also become the subject of study for their opponents.

Huo Yuhao wasn't worried about Tang Sect's upcoming matches. Tang Sect's draw was initially very unfavorable, facing strong opponents in the first two matches. Any casualties would have made the later matches extremely difficult. But they had overcome those two challenges and won both. Even Huo Yuhao, the temporary captain, was astonished by Tang Sect's hidden strength. He could clearly sense that none of his teammates had fully utilized their abilities; everyone was holding back.

In this situation, even if they encounter the Holy Spirit Sect, so what? Can they necessarily threaten the Tang Sect? Huo Yuhao now only hopes that Bei Bei can recover as soon as possible. To be honest, he would rather be the main control Soul Master of the team than the captain.

Among the Shrek Seven Devils, he ranked sixth. His five senior brothers and sisters were all older than him, so it was somewhat awkward for him to give orders.

Huo Yuhao's biggest worry right now is the Shrek Academy team. The Mingyu Sect has already been defeated by them and is no longer a threat, but the Sun Moon team still maintains its formidable strength. If the Shrek Academy team wants to advance from the round-robin stage, they must make a significant impact in their battle against the Sun Moon team.

Although Lin Chen was there to support them, Xiao Hongchen must have known about Lin Chen's strength and would definitely have some countermeasures.

It all comes down to whether Lin Chen's Seven Kill Sword is stronger or Xiao Hongchen's soul tool is more powerful.

They finally arrived at the Qingse Hotel. Huo Yuhao's somewhat dazed state of mind immediately returned to normal, and his arrogant look reappeared in his eyes. He slightly raised his head and leaned indifferently against the back of his wheelchair.

The people who were there to greet them were already waiting outside the hotel. When they saw the three of them appear, they quickly came to greet them.

"You've arrived."

"Hmm." Huo Yuhao hummed in response. "What's going on today?"

……

Inside the penthouse, the Shrek team was discussing tactics.

"Everyone did a great job in today's competition. The academy will reward you when you get back," Zhang Lexuan said.

"Thank you, Senior Sister."

In the following days, Shrek played three more games.

After the All-Continent Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament entered the round-robin stage, Shrek Academy ranked second in the group with a record of three wins. After encountering strong opponents in the last two matches, Tang Sect defeated their opponents in the next four matches. With their strong strength, they made it through the rounds one after another and ranked first in the group with a record of six wins. They have basically stepped into the top eight.

In this group, besides the Tang Sect, there is another team that has maintained a perfect record, namely the Shrek Academy team.

In the first five round-robin matches, they played steadily and, with their considerable strength, defeated their opponents one after another under the leadership of Wang Qiu'er. Even the Mingyu Sect, which had been crippled by the Tang Sect, was defeated by them.

On that day, the two absolute mainstays of Mingyu Sect—Cain and Xue Bing—were unfrozen and returned to normal.

What the Tang Clan members didn't know was that after the Mingyu Sect was basically eliminated, Captain Cain, who possessed a powerful martial soul—the Three-Headed Dark Gold Bat King—disappeared.

Did they go back to the road to hell?

The Tangmen team, who had just finished the sixth round of the competition relatively easily, surprisingly did not leave early today. Instead, they sat in the VIP lounge, and everyone's expression seemed somewhat solemn.

Because the next match is the absolute highlight of today's competition. The two most rivalry-filled teams in the history of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament are about to clash.

On one side is the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team, led by the siblings Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, who have won four and lost one of the first five round-robin matches; on the other side is the Shrek Academy team, led by the Golden Goddess Wang Qiu'er.

However, Wang Qiu'er is only on the surface; Shrek Academy's true trump card lies with Lin Chen.

For both sides, this is not only a battle to qualify, but also a battle for survival and glory.

There is simply too much hatred between the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy.

In this round-robin tournament, the Sun and Moon team has already lost to the Tang Sect once. If they lose this match, then even if they don't play the last match, the Shrek team will still advance alongside the Tang Sect.

If they win, the final round of the tournament will be a fierce battle between Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. If Tang Sect wins, they will advance along with the Sun Moon Team; if Tang Sect loses to Shrek Team, they will have to compete against both Shrek Team and Sun Moon Team based on their head-to-head records.

Either way, it would be perfect for the Sun and Moon team.
