Douluo Continent: I got the Sharingan at the start!
Chapter 269 The show is about to begin!
Meng Hongchen rolled her eyes and said, "I looked at their list of participants, and the strongest one is only a Soul Emperor."
"Don't be careless about dreams; sometimes, rank doesn't tell the whole story."
"Moreover, although their top-tier strength is far inferior to ours, they have a total of four Soul Emperors."
Xiao Hongchen said somewhat seriously.
Back at Shrek Academy, he often witnessed what it meant to challenge someone of a higher level.
He originally thought he was already very strong, but compared to other Shrek Academy students of the same level, his strength was actually not that great; he could only be said to be ranked near the top.
What he didn't know was that the inner disciples of Shrek Academy were the most outstanding geniuses on the continent.
Therefore, strength is inevitable.
Meng Hongchen snorted lightly: "Hmph, as long as the two of us go on stage, Shrek Academy will surely lose."
"It's a pity, I wonder how Hanyu's group is doing, they seem to be in the second group."
Xiao Hongchen shook his head slightly and said, "Instead of worrying about Hanyu, you should worry about us."
"I've seen it. Their group is nowhere near as strong as Han Yu's group."
"On the contrary, we not only have to fight Shrek, but also the Holy Spirit Cult."
Meng Hongchen said, "All we need to do is defeat Shrek Academy."
"When we encounter those Holy Spirit Cult guys, we can just admit defeat."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Hongchen nodded.
Those guys from the Holy Spirit Cult are the type to kill without hesitation.
Moreover, their methods of killing are incredibly cruel. If you've already advanced, there's no need to fight them to the death.
The rest area next to the competition stage of the All-Continent Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition has been renovated in just two days.
Only the original VIP lounge area was retained.
The rest area has been redecorated, with the original wooden benches replaced by comfortable sofas.
After all, this place only needs to accommodate eight teams at the same time each day.
It will never feel crowded again.
When Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen arrived at the competition venue with the Sun and Moon team, they immediately saw the Shrek team members already sitting in the rest area.
Beibei's face was a little pale, and she sat in the first seat.
The rest of the Shrek crew sat around him, their expressions perfectly calm.
Just then, one of the Shrek Academy students stood up and strode towards the Sun and Moon Team.
Xiao Hongchen narrowed his eyes and stopped in his tracks.
It was Xu Sanshi who walked over. He went straight to Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen and said, "We lost as the reserve team in the last competition, which is why we couldn't fight against you in the final match."
Xiao Hongchen sneered and said, "Oh, from what you're saying, you seem to think you've already won today's match?"
Xu Sanshi sighed and said, "No, that's not it. What I'm trying to say is that we're on the same team as the Holy Spirit Cult. I think it would be better if you surrendered and we defeated the Holy Spirit Cult, and then we could advance together. Wouldn't that be a great thing?"
Xiao Hongchen snorted coldly and said, "Admit defeat?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"We are not spineless cowards."
"Moreover, your team's strength is not enough to make us admit defeat."
Xiao Hongchen glanced at the Shrek team members and said with a hint of disdain.
He didn't even consider four Soul Emperors a threat.
In his opinion, if anyone should admit defeat, it should be Shrek Academy.
Xu Sanshi's expression remained unchanged, but he had a compassionate look on his face. "I have already advised you. There are no limits to how much you can fight in this competition. If anything unexpected happens, don't blame me for not giving you a heads-up."
"You..." Xiao Hongchen was furious and about to explode.
Xu Sanshi had already turned and left.
Meng Hongchen grabbed her brother's arm. "Don't fall for it. He's just trying to provoke you."
Xiao Hongchen quickly calmed down, but his eyes were terrifyingly cold. "Hmph, they actually dare to threaten me. I'll let them know why the flowers are so red."
Xu Sanshi had already returned to the Shrek team and sat down next to Bei Bei.
Beibei quietly opened her closed eyes and whispered:
"Sanshi, there's no need to do this. It won't do us any good."
Xu Sanshi lowered his head, chuckled, and said:
"Anyway, it can't hurt, right? Besides, I think Xiao Hongchen is quite arrogant. I only said a few words and he got really angry."
"Being mentally unstable before the competition can also be beneficial for us."
Upon hearing this, Beibei shook her head but didn't say anything more.
After all, on the surface, Shrek Academy is indeed weaker than the Sun and Moon Team. Although Xu Sanshi's actions did not have a significant effect, they were still beneficial to Shrek Academy.
At this moment, all eight teams in the first group that participated this morning have arrived.
The team members all looked serious, and a tense atmosphere permeated the entire competition venue.
On the platform, Ju Zi pushed Regent Xu Tianran to the main seat, straightened his clothes, and then gently sat down beside him.
Xu Tianran pulled one of her hands and placed it on his leg, patting it gently.
Orange smiled slightly, looking like a little bird nestled against someone.
"Today's first round is a match between the Sun and Moon Team and Shrek Academy. It should be very interesting," Xu Tianran said with a smile.
Orange smiled and said, "Really? Then our Sun and Moon team will definitely be victorious."
Xu Tianran turned to look at the Mingde Hall Master not far from him and asked, "What does the Hongchen Hall Master think?"
Jing Hongchen frowned slightly and said, "It's hard to say. This is just a round-robin tournament. For both sides, even if they lose this match, they won't be eliminated."
It's hard to say whether both sides will go all out.
However, if you go all out, the outcome of the match is still hard to predict.
The final winner will be determined in the team competition.
For teams of similar strength, the individual elimination rounds are merely a process of weakening the opponent's strength and enhancing their own momentum and advantage.
This sets the stage for the team competition.
Xu Tianran smiled and said, "Didn't the Red Dust Hall Master give our Sun and Moon Team any tactics?"
Jing Hongchen smiled slightly and said, "If a fledgling eagle doesn't take off on its own, its wings will always remain soft."
Let them do it themselves.
Over the past few years, my grandson and granddaughter have put in a lot of effort so that they can defeat the Shrek Academy students in this competition.
I'm actually really looking forward to this match, although I don't want them to go all out at this point.
Xu Tianran said, "After hearing what the Hall Master of the Red Dust said, I am even more interested in this battle. Let's wait and see."
At this moment, the referee had already entered the arena. After announcing the rules of the round-robin tournament, he concluded: "The first match of the first group of the round-robin tournament is between the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team and the Shrek Academy team. Both teams' players, please proceed to the waiting area."
The first team members in the individual competition took to the stage.
The two teams stood up almost simultaneously, their eyes meeting, instantly sparking intense reactions.
On the Snow Demon Sect's side, Han Yu opened her slightly closed eyes and murmured:
"The show is about to begin."
Yuan Gungun chuckled and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Don't worry, boss, your sister-in-law and the others will definitely defeat Shrek Academy."
Han Yu glanced at them, then turned her gaze to Ning Tian, Qiu'er, and the others on the competition stage, before whispering:
"Meng Hongchen and her group are very strong, but the Shrek Academy students are not weak either. This match is quite interesting."
Han Yu emphasized the words "Dream of the Mortal World" a little more, and Yuan Gun Gun immediately understood what Han Yu meant.
He chuckled and said, "Boss, which team do you think will win?"
Han Yu smiled slightly: "The Sun and Moon team has a better chance of winning."
As she spoke, Han Yu's gaze was already fixed on the competition stage.
At this point, both teams had entered the field.
The members of both teams have already entered the waiting area.
On the Sun and Moon team's side, Xiao Hongchen made a gesture to a young man, who immediately jumped up and went straight onto the competition stage.
This person is tall with very broad shoulders.
His gaze was calm, giving people a very composed feeling.
He was quite handsome. His hands were particularly large.
Long, slender fingers.
Just by standing there, he exudes an aura of considerable strength.
Shrek Academy, on the other hand, sent He Caitou.
Beibei said, "Caitou, I'm counting on you for this match."
He Caitou chuckled and said, "Captain, don't worry, leave it to me. I'll blow their heads off one by one."
Beibei nodded slightly.
He Caitou walked to the center of the playing platform, glanced at the referee, and nodded.
The referee said in a deep voice, "Both sides, state your names."
"Shrek Academy, and Cai Tou."
"Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Xiao Ping."
The referee said in a deep voice, "Both sides step back. Prepare for the match. During the match, obey my commands. If anyone dares to attack after I announce the result, then I have the right to determine their guilt."
No one dared to ignore the referee's words; he was an eighth-level Soul Master.
He Caitou and Xiao Ping both agreed and retreated towards the edge of their respective playing areas.
This was the first match of the individual elimination rounds. The two sides exchanged a glance, and their eyes immediately blazed with fighting spirit.
Reaching the edge of the competition platform, He Caitou turned around and stared intently into the distance.
He stepped forward with his left foot, making a sprinting motion.
On the other side, Xiao Ping's eyes were sharp, like a leopard poised to pounce.
With his right hand raised high, the referee looked at both sides before suddenly lowering it to announce the start of the match.
The moment the referee waved his hand, Xiao Ping moved. His soul-guided thrusters suddenly lit up, and like a leopard, he charged towards He Caitou with lightning speed.
That's right, he is a melee soul master.
As his body charged forward, Xiao Ping suddenly held a long spear in his hand.
His spear had sharp points at both ends.
As it surged forward, a bright light began to appear.
Three of his spirit rings lit up alternately, greatly increasing his spirit power.
As He Caitou took a sprinting step, he moved the instant his opponent launched his attack.
He certainly wouldn't use the Soul Guidance Turret tactic, like Zhou Xinghao, who immediately fell into a disadvantageous position.
With a raise of his right hand, a soul-guided cannon appeared on his right arm, and a ball of silver light shot out instantly.
It flew no more than twenty meters before exploding, turning into a silver net of light that enveloped Xiao Ping, who was rushing towards it.
Although Xiao Ping's eyes were filled with a bloodthirsty desire, he still remained calm amidst this bloodlust. A white light suddenly shone from his chest, and his forward-moving body came to an abrupt stop. Then, a strong wave of soul power emanated from his entire body.
As the armor clanged around him, he was pushed back out.
Don't underestimate this forward and reverse movement; when rushing forward at high speed, suddenly push in the opposite direction.
The sheer force of its impact is something most people cannot withstand.
However, it was precisely by using this reverse force that he managed to avoid being covered by the silver net at the last possible moment.
Just as the net of light was closing, he was about to charge forward again, but at that moment, a powerful explosion suddenly rang out. The silvery-white shockwave exploded indiscriminately at the point where the net of light was closing, causing Xiao Ping, who was about to charge forward, to suddenly stop, his body involuntarily pausing for a moment.
The referee's eyes lit up, he nodded slightly, and muttered to himself, "This Shrek Academy kid is not bad, a combination of a trap net and a shock bomb."
It combines control, resistance, and lethality.
A very creative soul tool.
This buys you time, and if your opponent reacts too slowly, you can defeat them directly.
As soon as He Caitou launched the decoy stun grenade, he immediately sprang into action.
A very standard Soul Master movement, quickly moving laterally in one direction along the edge of the arena, while a heavy cannon appeared on his shoulder.
A barrage of explosive projectiles poured forth, hurtling towards the enemy. Meanwhile, a flying soul tool deployed behind him.
The explosive projectile rises into the air as it is launched.
Xiao Ping was knocked back by the shockwave, followed by another wave of explosive grenades, which also demonstrated his strength.
At least a dozen points of light from soul-guided propulsion devices appeared on his palms, feet, legs, and back. These soul-guided propulsion devices of varying sizes, along with the flight soul-guided device that also opened on his back, allowed him to control his body and fly diagonally in an instant.
It shot into the air at incredible speed, dodging the explosive bullets while rapidly approaching He Caitou.
He pointed the spear forward, and a blinding white beam of light shot out from the tip, heading straight for He Caitou.
He Caitou had been observing his opponent. Xiao Ping's soul-guided thrusters were all hidden in that suit of armor. The armor only covered some of his most important parts; it wasn't a full-body suit of armor, but it made him more agile.
Now that he's airborne, his agility becomes even more apparent. With his numerous soul-guided thrusters, he can perform actions that defy the laws of nature.
While in mid-air, He Caitou suddenly shifted three feet to the side, narrowly avoiding the ray of light.
Its wings spread out downwards, and it hovered in mid-air.
The weapon on his shoulder had changed. It had been replaced with a very strangely designed heavy cannon.
The heavy cannon was cylindrical at the back, carried on the shoulder, but its front was rectangular, with three rows of eighteen muzzles. A sudden burst of intense blue-purple light illuminated it. (End of Chapter)
