Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 364 The Shrekians like compromise
“I can give you ten ten-thousand-year soul bones. But ten-thousand-year soul bones are too precious. Why don’t you give up the ten-thousand-year soul bones and we’ll give you a few more ten-thousand-year soul bones?” Cai Meier frowned.

Even at Shrek Academy, a 100,000-year-old soul bone is an extremely precious item.

"Dean Cai, please leave. I don't see any sincerity in you. Shrek Academy should focus on preparing for the individual elimination rounds." After saying this, Huo Yuhao closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

When Huo Yuhao asked for a 100,000-year-old soul bone, he knew the other party wouldn't agree.

However, the Shrekians prefer compromise.

If I ask for a 100,000-year soul bone, the other party won't agree at first. But if I say that I want Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy to have a single elimination tournament, and severely eliminate Shrek Academy and deal a heavy blow to Shrek's reputation, the other party is very likely to agree to take out the 100,000-year soul bone.

For an elder like Cai Meier, maintaining Shrek Academy's eternal glory is extremely important. Although Tang Sect can also maintain Shrek Academy's eternal glory, having another team capable of maintaining that glory enter the top four would reduce variables and greatly increase Shrek Academy's chances of maintaining its eternal glory.

Cai Meier hesitated. In fact, if they could play in a team competition, Shrek Academy would definitely win, since team competitions were Shrek Academy's strength.

However, the 100,000-year-old soul bone made her somewhat hesitant. As a high-ranking elder, she did have a 100,000-year-old soul bone that was not currently in use because soul bones could be passed down.

However, this 100,000-year-old soul bone was actually left by her for her child. She and Yan Shaozhe are husband and wife. Although they do not have children at present, they will definitely have children in the future.

After a moment's thought, she decided to take out the 100,000-year-old soul bone in order to protect Shrek Academy's millennia-old glory. She was willing to pay a certain price as long as Shrek Academy could win the competition.

"Everything is for the sake of maintaining the glory of ten thousand years. As long as the Shrek Academy can defeat the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy in the team competition, the other teams are not a threat. Maybe the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy can even meet in the finals. Then my efforts today will have paid off." Her mind was churning with thoughts.

Thinking of this, Cai Meier looked at Huo Yuhao again and said, "Okay, I agree to your request."

She then took out ten ten-thousand-year soul bones and one hundred-thousand-year soul bone from her storage soul tool. She reluctantly handed these soul bones to Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao accepted the soul bones with a smile, then turned to Xiao Hongchen beside him and said, "Xiao Hongchen, go and tell the referee that our Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy have reached an agreement that both sides will forgo the individual elimination rounds and directly proceed to the team competition, with the outcome determined by the team competition."

In his view, even in a team competition, as long as Tang San doesn't personally step in to fight, victory is assured.

Xiao Hongchen had no objections; he nodded and said, "Okay."

Then he quickly set off in his flying soul tool to find the referee.

Anyway, Yuhao is extremely strong, and the other members of the Sun and Moon team are also quite strong. When they play the team competition later, they can give Shrek Academy a good beating.

Moreover, Shrek Academy offered this opportunity to participate in the team competition, and the opposing team even paid the price of a soul bone. It can be said that Shrek Academy lost this round.

However, Cai Meier had a smile on her face at this moment. She felt that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was bound to lose. After all, in the current Shrek team, those who were injured had all recovered from their injuries. The Shrek team was now in its prime.

This is actually related to the urgent request Shrek Academy made for the help of the Immortal Healer Douluo. As a revered figure of the Star Luo Empire, the Immortal Healer Douluo naturally wouldn't refuse Shrek Academy's request.

After all, the Star Luo Royal Family still needs to rely on the strong individuals of Shrek Academy to resist any potential future wars.

Cai Meier looked at Huo Yuhao and transmitted her voice, "Huo Yuhao, I'll be leaving now. I also need to communicate with the referee."

However, as you've seen, Shrek Academy's foundation in spirit bones is extraordinary, and the gates of Shrek Academy will always be open to outstanding geniuses like you.

Although she had been warned by Kong Deming before, Cai Meier was still somewhat unwilling to give up. After all, Huo Yuhao, a genius with both a physical martial soul and an ultimate ice martial soul, could be considered a natural-born Shrek student.

After saying these words, Cai Meier quickly flew away from the waiting area of ​​the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and headed towards the competition stage. Soon, she overtook Xiao Hongchen, who had set off earlier, and arrived at the competition stage ahead of him.

Then, after Xiao Hongchen arrived, she and Xiao Hongchen went to the referee and explained that Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy had reached an agreement to give up the individual elimination rounds and directly hold a team competition, with the team competition determining the final winner.

The referee was somewhat surprised and dared not agree to the matter directly. So he went to the chief referee, Zheng Zhan, and reported the matter to him, letting him make the decision.

Zheng Zhan was also a bit dumbfounded. As an older level nine soul master, he had seen many scenes, but he had never seen anything like this before.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded: "Okay, since we agree, let's start the team competition."

The referee, relieved to receive Zheng Zhan's affirmative answer, returned to the competition stage and announced loudly: "Since both Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy have agreed to forfeit the individual elimination rounds, please have Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy each send seven players to the arena to begin the team competition."

Upon hearing this, the audience in the stands looked surprised and began to discuss why Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy would make such an unusual decision. After all, it was obvious to everyone that Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy had a huge advantage in the individual elimination rounds.

On the high platform, Xu Tianran also looked surprised. He looked at Jing Hongchen beside him and asked, "Dean Jing, is this your intention?"

Jing Hongchen shook his head and slowly said, "This is naturally not what I meant."

"Your Highness, this was probably a decision Yuhao made on the spur of the moment. After all, he's the captain. However, I hope you can trust Yuhao; he must have had a reason for making this decision."

"In my guess, this might be for strategic reasons. After all, as you know, Shrek Academy team has always been very good at team competitions."

However, defeating Shrek Academy in their strongest area would undoubtedly further dampen Shrek Academy's arrogance and enhance the reputation of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

Xu Tianran nodded, feeling that Jing Hongchen's words made sense; otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy would take such an unusual action.
