Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul is actually Bibi Dong.

Chapter 124 Yu Xiaogang is getting anxious

Su Mo didn't know if Zhu Zhuqing had taken his advice to heart, but the next day, Su Mo didn't see Zhu Zhuqing among the Shrek team in the audience.

The first event on the second day was the battle between the Tianshui Team and the Chihuo Team.

"Now, please welcome the members of Team Tianshui and Team Chihuo to the stage!"

With the host's introduction, the members of both teams quickly took to the stage.

"What's going on?"

"Isn't that Feng Xiaotian from the Kamikaze Squad?"

"..."

However, when the members of the Blazing Fire team took to the stage, everyone present was surprised.

They saw Feng Xiaotian from the Shenfeng team appear in the Chihuo team's uniform. Although he had changed into the Chihuo team's uniform, they recognized him as Feng Xiaotian at first glance.

Upon closer inspection, everyone was surprised to find that, in addition to Feng Xiaotian, there were three other members of the Blazing Fire team who were also former members of the Divine Wind team. Now, they had all changed their appearances and appeared on the arena wearing the Blazing Fire team uniforms.

"So these two teams have teamed up after all!"

Su Mo was somewhat surprised to see this.

In the original story, these two teams joined forces because they wanted to defeat the Shrek team. Unexpectedly, even after the Shrek team has been eliminated, the Blazing Fire team and the Divine Wind team have still teamed up.

Unlike the original story, here the members of the Kamikaze team have joined the Blazing Fire team, and they've even changed into their team uniforms.

Unlike in the original work, although they joined forces, the Blazing Fire team still wore their own team uniforms, and to show that the team was a brand new team, they even changed the team name to Shin Kamikaze Team.

After a moment's thought, Su Mo understood the difference.

Because this time, members of the Kamikaze team joined the Blazing Fire team. The representative of the Kamikaze team is Feng Xiaotian, who is a simp for Huo Wu, so he doesn't care about the team's name or what uniforms they wear.

"What's going on?"

"Host? What's going on? Why are members of the Kamikaze Squadron in the Blazing Squadron?"

"..."

Upon discovering this situation, everyone began to question the host of the Spirit Hall.

Seeing this, the host raised his hand to signal everyone to quiet down before explaining, "As you can see from the situation with the Blazing Fire Team, they've applied to change members!"

"The tournament rules allow for member changes. Feng Xiaotian and the others from the Kamikaze Team joined Blazing Fire Academy after leaving the Kamikaze Team!"

"That's what they said!"

"Since they are members of the Blazing Fire team, they can naturally substitute and play!"

"If the competition rules allow it, then there's no reason for our Spirit Hall not to!"

"This is clearly a loophole in the competition rules. I believe that after this competition, new rules will be introduced for the next Soul Master Competition to close this loophole!"

"But that's a matter for later. What we present to everyone now is still the Blazing Fire Team!"

The host calmly explained.

"hateful!"

"The Blazing Fire Team and the Kamikaze Team are exploiting a loophole in the tournament rules!"

"That's shameless..."

"But that's really how the rules are..."

"..."

After hearing the host's explanation, although some people were unwilling to accept it, it was indeed the truth, and they couldn't refute it, so they could only accept it.

Since the Spirit Hall, as the host, offered three spirit bones as a reward, and no one objected, they naturally couldn't object any further.

Therefore, everyone had no choice but to accept this outcome.

Then the new Blazing Fire team began to compete against the Skywater team.

The result was undoubtedly a victory for the new Blazing Fire team.

After all, after the reorganization, all of them were Soul Masters, and their overall strength was much stronger than that of the Tianshui team.

The attributes of the Blazing Fire Team and the Skywater Team are originally mutually restraining, with water restraining fire and fire restraining water.

However, after the Blazing Blaze team joined the Kamikaze team, the combination of wind and fire did indeed significantly enhance their power.

Therefore, the Tianshui team was ultimately defeated by the Chihuo team.

"This is troublesome. This reorganized Blazing Fire team is very strong. Defeating them won't be easy!"

After watching the match between the Tianshui team and the Chihuo team, the team leader of the Tiandou Royal team said to Su Mo and the others with concern.

He was very confident that Su Mo and his team had defeated the Longkui team, so he was now thinking about the matches to come.

"Yes, the Blazing Fire team is clearly much stronger now!"

"We'll definitely be facing them next!"

"..."

Upon hearing the team leader's words, the Stone Mill Brothers chimed in agreement.

"It's nothing, it just takes a little more effort!"

"If we can't even defeat them, how can we possibly fight the Spirit Hall team!"

Su Mo stepped forward and spoke.

Su Mo was truly speechless about her team leader, who was always saying discouraging things and deliberately undermining the team members' confidence.

Su Mo even began to suspect that he might be an undercover agent sent by the Spirit Hall.

It seems that the lack of fighting spirit that Yu Tianheng and the others showed when facing the Spirit Hall team in the original work was largely due to their team leader.

"Yes, yes, Su Mo is right!"

"If we're afraid of even the Blazing Fire Team, what's the point of fighting the Spirit Hall Team!"

"..."

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan quickly echoed his sentiments.

After the Tianshui team lost to the Blazing Fire team, it was the Spirit Hall team's turn to take the stage.

This time, the Spirit Hall team defeated their opponents very easily. They were a team that had a bye in the previous round and had managed to get second place in the ranking competition in the Star Luo Empire.

Fortunately, Su Mo and his team were not to be outdone, and they defeated the Long Kui team relatively easily, advancing to the next round.

The top three teams were also determined after Su Mo and his team won.

These are the Spirit Hall team, the Heaven Dou Royal team, and the reorganized Blazing Fire team.

"The top three teams have emerged. All three teams should get some rest; the next round of matches will begin tomorrow!"

"The next round will consist of individual and team competitions. The winning team in the individual competition will directly advance to the final!"

"The remaining two teams will engage in a team battle. The winner will advance to the final, while the loser will become the third-place winner of this year's Soul Master Tournament!"

"I hope you can perform well tomorrow and strive to advance to the finals the day after tomorrow!"

After the host finished speaking, the event was adjourned.

"Su Mo, I don't think I see Zhu Qing!"

"Could she have actually listened to your advice and joined the Spirit Hall?"

As they left the arena, Ning Rongrong carefully observed the Shrek team's situation and whispered to Su Mo.

"I don't know, Tang San and the others don't seem to think so!"

"However, Zhu Zhuqing didn't come today. It's possible she really went to the Spirit Hall, but Tang San and the others don't know it yet!"

Su Mo glanced back at the expressions of Yu Xiaogang and the others, then shook his head.

He really didn't know whether Zhu Zhuqing had truly chosen to betray the organization and join the Spirit Hall.

Anyway, you can't tell from the expressions of Yu Xiaogang and the others.

Su Mo had only mentioned it casually yesterday, but now she was starting to get curious.

Because if Zhu Zhuqing really listened to him and joined the Spirit Hall...

Then Yu Xiaogang's Shrek team will lose one more member.

Moreover, he is an important member who can use the Martial Soul Fusion Technique with Dai Mubai.

Su Mo was very curious to see the expressions on Yu Xiaogang's and Dai Mubai's faces if Zhu Zhuqing really left.

However, he couldn't possibly keep an eye on them; he could only wait and see how Yu Xiaogang and the others reacted tomorrow.

At this time, after everyone left the arena, the team leader of the Blazing Fire team secretly met with the team leader of the Spirit Hall team.

"Great, congratulations to your Blazing Fire team for making it into the top three!"

The team leader of the Spirit Hall team congratulated the team leader of the Blazing Fire team, but there was a hint of disdain in his tone.

"Don't worry, tomorrow our Blazing Fire team will cooperate with your Spirit Hall team to target the Heaven Dou Royal team!"

"When we're fighting against the heavens, we go all out; when we're facing you, we hold back, so you can win more easily!"

The team leader of the Blazing Fire team ignored the other person's tone and continued speaking to himself.

This is what they agreed upon.

The Spirit Hall facilitated the Blazing Fire Team, allowing Feng Xiaotian and others to join. In return, the Blazing Fire Team cooperated with the Spirit Hall to target the Heaven Dou Team in the top three individual competitions.

As for the final, regardless of whether the Blazing Fire Team or the Heavenly Fighting Team makes it to the final, it will all depend on their own abilities!

"No need for all that trouble. For tomorrow's individual matches, your Blazing Fire team can simply concede defeat!"

After hearing what the leader of the Blazing Fire team said, the team leader of the Spirit Hall team smiled and changed his previous decision.

Originally, as agreed beforehand, the strategy was to be more targeted towards the Tiandou Royal Team.

But afterwards he thought about it and realized that it would be too obvious to be noticed.

So he decided to let the Blazing Fire team forfeit in the individual competition.

In any case, in the individual competition, their Spirit Hall team is not afraid of anyone. The only thing he felt was a threat to their Spirit Hall team was Su Mo and Ning Rongrong's Spirit Fusion Skill.

But he wasn't worried at all about the individual competition.

In the individual competition, their Spirit Hall team has three Soul Kings, so there is no way they can lose.

That's why he changed his mind and decided to let the Blazing Fire team just admit defeat.

After losing to them in the individual competition, the Tiandou Royal Team will have to fight a team battle against the Blazing Fire Team. Regardless of who wins in the end, it will be a good thing for them.

If the Heavenly Dou Royal Team wins, there will definitely be a fierce battle, and then they will have achieved their goal of exhausting the Heavenly Dou Royal Team's energy.

He was even happier when the Blazing Fire team won.

Because the Blazing Fire team didn't pose any threat to him.

Even if they win, it will be like the Heavenly Dou Royal Team, a fierce battle followed by a heavy blow that will severely deplete their energy and negatively impact their chances of winning the finals the day after tomorrow.

In his view, if the Blazing Fire team gives up in the individual competition, the smartest thing for the Heavenly Dou Royal team to do is also to give up and directly engage in the team competition with the Blazing Fire team.

Otherwise, after expending a lot of soul power in the battle with their Spirit Hall team, they would suffer a great loss if they then fought the Blazing Fire team in a group battle.

There is only a half-day rest period between individual and team competitions.

"no problem!"

"Then it's settled!"

When the leader of the Blazing Fire Team heard the Spirit Hall's idea, he was first taken aback, then overjoyed, and quickly agreed.

In this way, their Blazing Fire Team wouldn't be noticed for having a deal with the Spirit Hall.

Otherwise, targeting the Heavenly Dou Royal Team in the individual competition would most likely be noticed by others.

A dirty deal was struck.

……

"master!"

"Dai Mubai, something terrible has happened!"

"Zhu Zhuqing has left!"

After the Shrek team members returned, Jiang Zhu quickly discovered a letter left by Zhu Zhuqing. After reading the first few sentences, Jiang Zhu's expression changed, and she immediately found the other members of the Shrek team.

"What?"

"Zhu Zhuqing has left?"

"..."

Yu Xiaogang, Flander, Dai Mubai, and Tang San were all surprised to learn that Zhu Zhuqing had left.

They knew that Zhu Zhuqing hadn't gone to watch the game with them today, but they all assumed that Zhu Zhuqing was just in a bad mood and never thought that Zhu Zhuqing would leave without saying goodbye.

Ignoring the presence of the dean and teachers, Dai Mubai stepped forward and snatched the letter from Jiang Zhu's hand to read it.

Zhu Zhuqing's departure had the greatest impact on him.

Flander and Yu Xiaogang were aware of the connection, so they didn't blame Dai Mubai for his actions.

"Damn it, that woman actually left!"

After reading the contents of the letter, Dai Mubai's face immediately turned furious.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't say much in the letter she left. She only said that she had decided to leave Shrek Academy and go find a way to break free from her fate. She didn't explain where she was going, but just told Shrek not to look for her.

"Let me see!"

Flander then took the letter from Dai Mubai and began to read it.

"It seems that girl is really gone!"

"Why……"

After reading it, Flander sighed.

After Yu Xiaogang and the others finished reading, they were all at a loss for words.

Everyone already knows about Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai's identities, as well as their family rivalry.

Therefore, no one could blame Zhu Zhuqing for leaving.

Zhu Zhuqing left because she saw no hope.

"Leaving alone, she has even less chance of finding a way to escape her fate!"

"Flander, let's go find Zhu Zhuqing. If we find her, I'm confident I can persuade her to stay!"

However, Yu Xiaogang was clearly unwilling to see Zhu Zhuqing leave, and immediately spoke to Flander and the others.

He didn't value Zhu Zhuqing's individual abilities, but Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai together were a trump card for the team.

Moreover, in his opinion, Zhu Zhuqing's decision was indeed too foolish. Only by staying in the Shrek Academy team, achieving results in the next Soul Master Competition, and gaining enough fame, could she and Dai Mubai have the confidence to return to the Star Luo Empire.

Although the chances of standing out from the competition were slim by then, it was still better than running away.

"Okay, I'll go find her now!"

Upon hearing this, Flander was the first to go out and search.

The others also went out to look for Zhu Zhuqing.
