Douluo Huo Yuhao: My Clone is Too Self-Disciplined

Fang Yuan unleashed his full aura, and the others from Shrek Academy were not to be outdone. Although the preliminary team was almost completely wiped out, and even Dai Yueheng had died in the Star Luo Empire, the main team still had three Soul Saints and three Soul Emperors.

Besides Fang Yuan, the other two Soul Saints, Ye Yunshang and Ma Xiaotao, also followed behind with their auras fully unleashed.

After all, anyone who can cultivate to the Soul Saint level at this age must be a proud and ambitious person.
Those are all unparalleled geniuses.

It's perfectly normal to have a temper.

Ye Yunshang was wearing a long purple dress, looking very noble and elegant. Her long black hair reached her waist, making her a truly gentle and beautiful woman.

It also exudes a youthful vibe.

As for Ma Xiaotao, she had fiery red hair with black accents and smoky makeup. Although she was very beautiful, she also had a somewhat sinister look.

It is clear that he has been completely corrupted and has become a demonic soul master.

However, with the suppression of her seventh ice-attribute 100,000-year soul ring, the blood fire within her body was still relatively balanced, at least it wouldn't devour her body.

As long as you don't release your martial soul, there won't be too many problems if you're just using your soul power.

As a level 74 Soul Saint, even without releasing his Martial Soul and Soul Skills, his strength is still somewhat greater than that of an ordinary Soul Emperor.

With Fang Yuan present, Ma Xiaotao wouldn't be exposed. That's what Shrek Academy thought, which is why they dared to send Ma Xiaotao out so boldly.

Besides, even if things don't go well, there's always Taotie Douluo to back them up. After all, Taotie Douluo is a Limit Douluo, so there's no situation he can't handle.

Unfortunately, no one knows what Xuanzi was really thinking.

Shrek Academy, as the protagonist and the uncrowned champion of every Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, ignited the entire competition stage with their arrival.

The entire venue erupted in cheers, demonstrating Shrek Academy's immense prestige in the Douluo Continent.

"Shrek, Shrek!"

"Shrek, Shrek!"

"Shrek, Shrek!"

……

Everyone was chanting Shrek Academy's name as if they were seeing a superstar. And indeed, Shrek Academy was a superstar in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition.

It's practically the secret to generating traffic.

Everyone at Shrek Academy was excited because they were all chanting Shrek Academy's name, and they were all shouting their own academy's name. They were all proud of Shrek Academy from the bottom of their hearts.

However, Fang Yuan didn't feel anything about it. He just felt that human joys and sorrows were not shared, and even found it a bit noisy.

After all, he had no feelings for Shrek Academy and couldn't resonate with these things.

"quiet!"

After the entire competition venue had been noisy for a while, a sound was transmitted through various means of transmission to all areas of the square, and could even be clearly heard outside.

A man in a golden robe holding a megaphone stood atop the city wall of Xingluo Imperial City, looking at the competition arena, the participating teams, and all the spectators, and uttered those two words in a powerful and resounding voice.

The one qualified to speak out in the city was naturally the Star Luo Emperor, Xu Jiawei, who hosted this opening ceremony.

As the head of a country, he should be the one to deliver the opening address at such a prestigious event, as it represents an unparalleled honor.

An emperor's reign could only be held once every twenty years, and some emperors could even only be emperors once in their entire lives.

He was able to rise to power early, which is why he got this opportunity. Who knows if he will have the chance to host the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament here as an emperor next time.

Therefore, in order not to leave any regrets, Xu Jiawei can be said to be very enthusiastic.

"Hello everyone, welcome to the Star Luo Empire to participate in and watch this highly anticipated competition."

"It is an honor that this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament is hosted by the Star Luo Empire. I am very fortunate to have this honor during my reign. I am deeply happy."

"This year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament has gathered countless young prodigies. It is you who have come to these two continents and the four great empires, representing your respective academies, to win glory for your academies and for your country."

"I have high expectations for your performance, and I hope that you can give full play to your strength in this competition and show the whole continent your youth, vitality, passion and spirit of young men."

"I hereby declare that the Continental Elite Advanced Soul Master Tournament is now officially open."

As soon as Xu Jiawei finished speaking, the previously silent square immediately erupted in excitement.

The people of the Star Luo Empire had already stood up, cheering loudly and shouting Xu Jiawei's title.

People from other countries also applauded, after all, Xu Jiawei's words were very well said, without any national differences.

As for the protagonists who came to participate in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition, they were also stirred up by Xu Jiawei's speech. What a spirited young man!

They are eager to show their prowess at the competition.

After so much hard training, and just in time for this Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, how can I not show off a bit?
What's the point of cultivation? Besides gaining immense power, isn't the ultimate goal just to show off?
If it weren't for showing off, who would be motivated to cultivate so diligently? After all, even the King of Scrolls isn't made this way. Some people would rather take drugs to improve their strength to participate in this competition, isn't it all for this once-in-twenty-years competition to show off?
This one job can be brag about for a lifetime; some people are willing to do anything to show off.

Laughing at the World: Why did you tag me? (The author below.)

On the Star Luo Imperial City, Xu Jiawei stopped speaking and then handed everything over to the host.

After all, his only responsibility was to give an opening speech and then watch the show. As for giving orders, it was impossible for him, as the ruler of a country, to do such things.

Actually, he didn't want to stay here to watch. If it weren't for the fact that the first match was against Shrek Academy, he would have left long ago.

The Continental Elite Advanced Soul Master Tournament is divided into elimination rounds, round-robin rounds, and the finals.

The first round is an elimination tournament, which basically eliminates half of the teams. In short, once you lose, you lose; there are no second chances.

While luck plays a significant role, ability is the most important factor. But who can say that luck isn't a part of ability?

Luck is certainly a part of ability.

Therefore, the first round of elimination matches was completely fair and just, especially with so many eyes watching.

In the knockout stage, teams from two different colleges are matched up to fight each other. The winners advance and the losers are eliminated. It's that simple.

After all, the competition venue is only so big, and the time is only one month. There can only be that many matches a day. If we don't send out more people, a month is simply not enough.

After the knockout stage comes the round-robin tournament, which uses a points system. Each college will then have multiple matches, as the round-robin tournament covers three different events.

These are individual competitions, team competitions, and the 2-2-3 strategy.

Individual competitions, as the name suggests, are individual battles. Each side sends out seven people to take turns fighting until all members of one side are incapacitated, at which point the winner is determined. Team battles, needless to say, are the most common tactic: teamwork, with the winner advancing.

The 2-2-3 strategy is quite interesting. It involves sending out seven people, and then having them compete in pairs or groups of three.

This tactic is also the only one that relies on luck.

After all, nobody knows who will be playing. With a 2-2-3 strategy, even if a team has a leader with incredible battle tokens, they might only win one round and lose the other two.

This combat mode is highly unstable and has the highest degree of variability.

Of course, this is also the most exciting tactic besides team battles, because the unknown is the most interesting.

During the round-robin tournament, the team leaders of each team draw numbered balls to determine the venue and format of the matches, and then match teams according to the corresponding numbers.

Because it is one of three randomly selected modes, the time will be much shorter than a simple team battle.

Sometimes, when teams are evenly matched, a single match can last for several hours.
It's mainly a waste of time.

Therefore, the organizers do not require that all three matches be played to determine a winner.

After the round-robin tournament ends, the remaining teams will be determined based on their respective points rankings.

Only sixteen teams will be selected to advance to the final sixteen.

Then came the exciting championship battle, from the round of 16 to the quarterfinals, from the quarterfinals to the semifinals, and finally the grand final.

Finally, a champion will be chosen, and their fame will spread throughout the entire Douluo Star.

This is the entire process of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, which takes one month.

As for Shrek Academy.

Shrek Academy is always in the starting lineup for every Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament. It's no exaggeration to say that this tournament is essentially designed for Shrek Academy.

Because Shrek Academy is the champion every year, and according to the rules, the first elimination match of each year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament is always started by the previous year's champion.

Therefore, Shrek Academy doesn't need to draw lots at all; they just need to wait for the referee to assign them opponents.

The referee took out a special soul guide box and then pulled out a slip of paper from it, which clearly read: Di'ao Advanced Soul Master Academy.

When the referee saw this, his palms were sweating profusely.

He never expected that his luck would be so bad, drawing the Imperial Advanced Soul Master Academy right from the start.

The Imperial Advanced Soul Master Academy was third in the previous competition. If they fail to even make it through the elimination rounds this time, they will lose all face.

Although this has nothing to do with him, there's no guarantee that the Imperial Advanced Soul Master Academy won't retaliate against him!

Everyone knows just how prestigious the name Shrek Academy is; it represents invincibility.

Therefore, it's safe to say that Di'ao Advanced Soul Master Academy is destined to lose this first elimination match.

The prestigious first academy of the Heavenly Soul Empire, the second-best advanced soul master academy with a history of ten thousand years, was actually eliminated in the first round of this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament.

This is an utter disgrace!

However, this also proves that they did not engage in any fraudulent activities, and everything was fair, just, and transparent.

So even if they were eliminated in the first round, the Imperial Advanced Soul Master Academy had nowhere to seek justice.

So although he was very nervous, the referee was actually secretly pleased.

After all, the very first and most anticipated opening match was so exciting; it was truly exhilarating.

Both Shrek Academy and Di'ao Advanced Soul Master Academy are among the most powerful academies in Douluo Continent. If these two academies were to clash in advance, the losing side would be immediately eliminated.

Two achievements will immediately appear at this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament.

First win and first loss.

It's really interesting.

"The first match will be between Shrek Academy and Di'ao Advanced Soul Master Academy." The referee raised the note in his hand to show that there was absolutely no cheating, and then continued, "Please have the contestants from both academies assemble at the arena immediately."

The moment the referee finished speaking, the entire stadium was stunned!
"hiss!"

Horror!
……

The entire square gasped in shock; the temperature seemed to drop dramatically in an instant.

After all, the first elimination match was between the top seed from the previous tournament and the third seed from the current tournament, which was incredibly exciting, and everyone was already very impatient.

When Shrek Academy heard that their opponent was Di'ao Advanced Soul Master Academy, no one showed any particular expression on their faces. After all, in their eyes, Di'ao Advanced Soul Master Academy was nothing special; it was just an ordinary academy.

It has nothing to do with the strong teams they need to pay attention to.

Although Shrek Academy was like this, the leader of the Di'ao Advanced Soul Master Academy was completely stunned when he heard the news. He stood there frozen, unable to even breathe.

The sadness is so great.

How can he still breathe?

Unexpectedly, his first time leading a team resulted in a humiliating first-round exit.

Although their team has a Soul Emperor-level expert, there is only one, and even the weakest one is a Soul Master.

Compared to Shrek Academy—no, compared to Shrek Academy, he couldn't even begin to compare—he didn't even want to make any strategic plans at the moment, because they were utterly meaningless.

Facing Shrek Academy is tantamount to a death sentence.

However, as the team leader, he couldn't very well send his own team members to deliver such a desperate message.

Losing is acceptable, but it must be a graceful defeat.

"Classmates, don't worry too much. Although Shrek Academy is strong, it's not impossible to defeat them. Jiang Peng, you can do it."

Jiang Peng: Me, fighting Shrek Academy? Really?
