Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 127 Shrek Academy is so arrogant!
Upon hearing that the first round would be an elimination tournament, everyone's expressions became noticeably serious. If Shrek Academy were to be eliminated in the first round of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, it would be a huge joke.

Even Huo Yuhao's face became more serious at this moment. Although he was confident in his own strength, he was not sure if any unexpected problems would arise after the plot changed.

Wang Yan showed no sign of worry, and smiled slightly, saying, "What are you all doing? Are you nervous? There's absolutely no need to be nervous. Once the competition starts, you'll find that your opponents are much weaker than you imagined."

"Huh?" Xiao Xiao and Ning Tian looked surprised.

Huo Yuhao chuckled and interjected, "Teacher Wang is right. Don't forget, Shrek Academy's students are the elite of the elite, basically invincible among their peers. I don't believe that other academies have twelve-year-old quasi-Soul Kings."

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's words, Wang Yan's expression shifted. He had only said that to comfort the children, but upon hearing the words "quasi-Soul King," Wang Yan realized that although Huo Yuhao was nominally a Soul Master, even disregarding his Soul Master strength, he was a genuine Soul King-level Soul Master in terms of Soul Power alone!
Thinking of the words from the Sea God Pavilion Master, Wang Yan suddenly became curious: Just how much strength did Huo Yuhao hide?
"Yuhao, what are your thoughts on this first match?" Wang Yan couldn't help but ask tentatively.

Huo Yuhao suddenly smiled mysteriously and said, "If our first opponent doesn't have anyone at the Soul King level or above, then I can go on stage by myself."

"You're all alone?!" Ling Luochen couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Wang Yan also said in surprise, "Yuhao, I admit that your strength is indeed far beyond that of ordinary Soul Masters, and even ordinary Soul Kings may not be your match. But this is the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament. Every team that comes to participate must have been selected through a rigorous process. Even if the average Soul Master level is not high, the combat power will increase exponentially when the seven of them work together. You must not underestimate your opponent."

Huo Yuhao smiled confidently: "Teacher Wang, don't forget, the academy didn't just send us this time! You may not know, but my senior brother He Caitou is also a genuine Soul Master level Soul Master, and his Soul Skills are like cheat codes for us contestants!"

Wang Dong'er, who was standing next to her, asked curiously, "But Teacher Wang has already submitted the number of applicants today."

"That's easy, just add his name, right?" Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Yan and smiled. "Teacher Wang, if I remember correctly, our academy has special privileges when participating in competitions, right?"

Wang Yan looked at Huo Yuhao in surprise. He had only learned about Shrek Academy's privileges after receiving the mission and had done some research. How did Huo Yuhao know? Did he also have prior knowledge of this?
“That’s right, Yuhao is right. Our Shrek Academy is the number one academy on the continent, and we are always the champions of the competition. Therefore, no matter when our academy’s students arrive, they can still be added to the registration list.”

"However, there is a limit: the final number of participants cannot exceed 14, which is one team of regular players plus one team of reserve players."

Huo Yuhao nodded with a smile: "That's right. We've only signed up 10 people so far, so there are still four vacancies. Teacher Wang, could you please add He Caitou, Jiang Nannan, and Wu Feng's names to the list later?"

After a moment's thought, Wang Yan asked, "Why not add Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu? They both have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill. With their current cultivation levels, the fused Netherworld White Tiger will have the attack power of a Soul King for a short time. If used well, it might be a surprise weapon."

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Because I don't like Dai Huabin, it affects my mood during the game."

Wang Yan: "." Hiss—you really don't hide it at all! You're even making a fuss about it so openly!
However, given Huo Yuhao's strength and the words from the Sea God Pavilion Master, Wang Yan really didn't dare to risk affecting Huo Yuhao's "competition mood" by forcibly adding Dai Huabin.
Wang Yan's face twitched slightly, and after a long while, he continued to ask, "Then why add Wu Feng?"

Huo Yuhao said with a sincere expression, "Because we're in the same class and have a good relationship."

Damn it!
Wang Yan almost couldn't help but swear!

His face darkened, and he said again, "What about Jiang Nannan? Don't tell me she's on good terms with you."

Huo Yuhao smiled and shook his head, secretly glancing at Xu Sanshi before answering, "No, that's not it. I just know her, and we're on good terms. But I let her join the team because she's useful. You'll see when the time comes."

After staring at Huo Yuhao for a long time and seeing the serious look in his eyes, Wang Yan reluctantly nodded: "Okay, I promise you, but if you mess up in the first match, I will definitely report to the Sea God Pavilion and explain everything after we return to the academy!"

Huo Yuhao nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay."

"Alright, since that's the case, everyone should go back and rest first. I'll go and bring He Caitou and the others in."

Because there were so many participants, the core disciples who came to watch the competition couldn't stay in the hotel reserved for the participants like they did. Instead, they stayed at the "Starry Sky Hotel" next door under the guidance of other teachers.

At this time, it wasn't just the Shrek Academy team that was having a meeting; almost all the participating academies were mobilizing their staff, including the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, which was staying on the same floor as Shrek Academy.

In the conference room, two old men sat at the top, and a total of fourteen students sat on both sides. The student on the left was obviously older, while the one on the right was slightly younger. Obviously, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy also sent a regular team and a reserve team for five years.

The elderly man on the left at the head of the table had a straight nose and square mouth, a dignified appearance, and broad shoulders that gave him a very solid presence. He said in a deep voice, "According to our observation, Shrek Academy only sent ten people this time. Moreover, only three of them look to be around twenty years old; the others are all younger and should be the reserve team for five years from now."

"We've used our infiltrators within the Star Luo Empire and have received accurate information. When they registered, only three of them were nineteen years old; the other seven were under fifteen. This means that Shrek Academy didn't send any of its seven regular team members to participate this time. Of the seven members in the reserve team from the last competition, only two showed up. Do you know what that means?"

The tall, short-haired old man on the right of the head of the table glared and slammed his fist on the table, shouting, "This is blatant contempt! Shrek Academy is so arrogant!"

Please throw your tickets in my face! I'm begging for recommendations and favorites!
