Douluo Continent, Huo Yuhao, the villain from a parallel world

As the entire audience was stunned, the referee had already returned to the playing area.

Looking at Xixi and Xu Sanshi lying on the ground, the outcome of this battle was already decided.

Chapter 153 I really want to poison them.

"In the knockout stage, the first match of the 2-2-3 strategy, Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy faced Shrek Academy, and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy emerged victorious."

"Please send out the next team to compete," the referee announced loudly from the center of the playing platform.

The referee's voice snapped the still-shocked audience out of their daze.

Shrek Academy has actually lost!

"Losing one game is normal. They didn't lose all of them. They'll definitely win back the next one."

"That's right, Shrek Academy is the number one academy on the continent. Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy has always been their defeated opponent, and they will definitely not be a match for Shrek this time either."

"Tch, they didn't know anything and were eliminated by others, yet they dared to say they would win later, what a joke!"

The spectators in the stands whispered among themselves. Some thought Shrek Academy was doomed to lose the match, but many more believed Shrek would win.

In an instant, the entire Xingluo Square became noisy again.

Xu Jiawei on the high platform was also somewhat disappointed, after all, he wanted to see Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy both suffer heavy losses.

That way, their team might be able to win the championship in this tournament.

But Shrek Academy's defeat was so bizarre; they basically collapsed to the ground without any real fighting.

"The poison of Meng Hongchen is so potent. If we encounter them again later, it will be difficult to find any other solution besides a quick battle."

Because Xu Jiawei himself couldn't actually figure out what Meng Hongchen's martial spirit was.

Because the Crimson-Eyed Ice Toad martial spirit is so rare, few people, except for scholars who specialize in studying martial spirits, would pay attention to it.

Xu Jiawei already had a good understanding of martial spirits, but no matter what, he was an emperor with too many things to do, and it was impossible for him to study them in depth like a scholar.

Thinking of this, Xu Jiawei shook his head helplessly.

He thought he could take advantage of the chaos, but he never expected that the strength of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy would far exceed his expectations.

At least in its current state, Shrek Academy is definitely not capable of achieving a mutually destructive outcome with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

The most likely scenario now is that Shrek Academy will lose the game quickly, without much tension.

Shrek Academy lost a match, and everyone in the rest area looked grim.

"Beibei, you and Chen Zifeng go up and bring Xu Sanshi and Xixi down," Wang Yan said to the two in a deep voice.

"Yes." The two nodded immediately.

Soon, they arrived at the competition stage and helped Xu Sanshi and Xixi, who had fallen to the ground, up.

The two men's expressions were far from pleasant at this moment.

His face was ashen, but his lips were deathly pale, and his body was slightly feverish.

After all, the poison of the Crimson-Eyed Ice Toad is not an ordinary cold poison, but a unique toxin formed by the power of ice and fire.

"Quickly, give them the antidote!" Bei Bei glared angrily at Meng Hongchen.

Meng Hongchen sneered, "Why should I detoxify them? If I'm not as skilled, then I'll just have to stay poisoned."

"If you people from Shrek Academy have a way to help them detoxify, then please do so."

"You!" Upon hearing this, Beibei's eyes blazed with fury, and she was ready to attack immediately.

Fortunately, Chen Zifeng remained calm and stopped Bei Bei from taking action. He then looked at the referee and said, "We are using the 2-2-3 formation. If they lose this match, they will no longer be able to play."

"So it's reasonable to ask the opponent for help in detoxifying, and I believe Your Honor will uphold justice, right?"

The referee nodded slightly upon hearing this. Now that Xu Sanshi and Xixi had both lost, they did indeed need to be helped to detoxify.

They organize competitions and are actually prohibited from harming opponents, but sometimes the battles are too intense and there is no time to stop them, resulting in casualties, and there is nothing they can do about it.

But that's clearly not the case now.

The referee cannot stand by and watch Xu Sanshi and Xixi be poisoned to death.

“Meng Hongchen, you need to help them detoxify, otherwise it will be a violation of the competition rules.”

The referee spoke directly to Meng Hongchen.

Meng Hongchen rolled her eyes, then looked at Bei Bei and Chen Zifeng with disdain.

If it weren't for the rules, she really would have poisoned Xu Sanshi and Xixi to death.

In any case, the Shrek Academy group didn't hold back at all when they made their move, so if anything unexpected happened, they would either die or be seriously injured.

Crouching down, Meng Hongchen patted Xixi and Xu Sanshi, and a wisp of white mist merged into her body.

Xi Xi and Xu Sanshi's expressions improved instantly, though of course it was impossible for them to wake up so quickly.

After this matter was settled, the referee quickly cleared the area, and the playing field was empty again.

Meng Hongchen returned to the rest area and rushed to Huo Yuhao's side, hugging his hand.

"Hehe, how did I do, senior brother?" Meng Hongchen's tone carried a hint of boasting.

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "You did a great job. You really angered those Shrek students."

"Heh, who told that Shrek student to spew nonsense and even dare to flirt with me? I'm already being generous to the organizers by not poisoning him to death."

Meng Hongchen still gets a little angry when she mentions this.

"By the way, I must thank you for the soul tool you gave me, otherwise it would have been quite difficult to poison Xixi so quickly."

Meng Hongchen then expressed her gratitude to Huo Yuhao.

Before Huo Yuhao could reply, Old Ma came over.

"Yuhao, in the next match, you and Xiao Xiafeng will go together. Let's finish this quickly and win this match, then we'll defeat Shrek Academy."

When he said this, Mr. Ma was also somewhat agitated.

When he was young, Master Ma participated in a major competition, but was defeated by Shrek Academy.

He served as the team leader almost every year after that, but he still lost to Shrek every time.

Now that the hope of defeating Shrek Academy was right in front of him, he couldn't help but get excited.

To be on the safe side, he sent Huo Yuhao, the strongest among them, directly.

He had complete faith in Huo Yuhao's ability to win the match, so even his teammates only assigned Huo Yuhao Xiao Xiafeng, a food-type martial soul.

"Okay, I'll go on stage now."

Huo Yuhao had no objections to Elder Ma's arrangements.

Anyway, he had no good feelings towards the Shrek Academy students, so he might as well go up and teach them a lesson.

Xiao Xiafeng stood up at this moment, walked to Huo Yuhao's side, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Then I'll have to rely on you to carry me, Yuhao."

"If you make a few more steamed buns for Yuhao, it will be your contribution."

Other members of the starting team also joked at this point.

Chapter 154 Huo Yuhao Makes His Debut

Compared to the relaxed atmosphere at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, the atmosphere at Shrek Academy was much more somber.

Having already lost one match, they were pushed to the brink; if they lost another, the round-robin tournament would be over.

And the glory of Shrek Academy, which has lasted for thousands of years, will be destroyed by their hands.

Wang Yan, the team leader, was also under immense pressure. He never imagined that his first time leading a team to participate in a competition would result in such an event.

"We must make sure we don't make any mistakes in the second game."

Clenching his fists, Wang Yan turned his gaze to the people in the rest area.

Xixi, who was a regular player, has already lost. The remaining four regular players are Chen Zifeng, Yao Haoxuan, Ling Luochen, and Gongyang Mo.

Both Yao Haoxuan and Gongyang Mo possess support-type martial souls, which can play a significant role in team battles.

However, they become very weak in two-on-two matches, which are prone to turning into one-on-one battles.

Because sometimes even if a person receives powerful assistance, it is still difficult for them to be a match for two powerful Soul Masters of the same level.

In a two-on-two match, if one of the players is not capable of fighting, they will be at a significant disadvantage.

Therefore, sending a purely support-oriented Soul Master is definitely not an option.

Of the remaining two, Chen Zifeng is undoubtedly an offensive type, but Ling Luochen is a control type, which makes Wang Yan hesitate.

It's unclear whether Ling Luochen can guarantee the team's victory.

"Sigh, if only some of them could use soul tools."

Wang Yan couldn't help but think the same thing at this moment.

If one has a soul tool to protect them, even a support soul master can exert combat power and provide buffs to their teammates.

That would make it much easier for Shrek to fight.

"Teacher Wang, please let me play! I will do my best to win this match for the college!"

Just as Wang Yan was struggling with his decision, Bei Bei suddenly stepped forward, his eyes red and his tone extremely firm.

"Are you sure? The people sent by the Sun and Moon Team are probably not weak." Wang Yan couldn't help but ask.

Then I looked at the other three members of the main team.

I noticed that all three of them looked conflicted, as if they wanted to go on stage but were hesitant to do so.

Without a doubt, having served as regular members of the Inner Academy for so long, the belief that Shrek Academy's glory is above all else has long been ingrained in their hearts.

However, precisely because of this, they were somewhat hesitant to engage in battle.

Because if they really lose this game, wouldn't they be the ones to lose Shrek's glory?

They dared not even imagine what kind of criticism they would face after returning to Shrek Academy.

They themselves also find it hard to get over the internal conflict, unable to accept that Shrek's glory was lost because of their own actions.
