Chapter 156 Everything is going according to plan
An Lengye and Fei Yuyan were breathing heavily, their bodies even trembling slightly.

Normally, once a martial soul combination skill is released, it cannot be controlled again. This is similar to fusing multiple different chemical substances to produce new changes. However, their martial soul combination skill is quite special. After being stacked, it not only produces a special "chemical reaction," but also allows for continued control when the two have sufficient tacit understanding, forming a powerful skill that integrates control, defense, and attack.

However, this skill also places a huge burden on the two of them once it is used!
Moreover, the energy released by He Caitou's outburst just now was already close to the limit of their control. At this moment, An Lengye and Fei Yuyan not only had their mental energy greatly depleted, but their soul power was also almost exhausted. If Jiang Nannan and He Caitou could continue to attack, then they would have no choice but to admit defeat.

As the dust settled back onto the ground, the situation of He Caitou and his group gradually became clearer.

A glint flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and he felt a slight sense of relief: Sacrificing teammates is acceptable, but it shouldn't be taken too far. Hey, this level is just right.

Although the battle was brief, it was just as intense, and the audience on the sidelines were all watching Shrek's side with bated breath.

As their vision gradually cleared, they saw that He Caitou's tall figure had somehow reappeared in front of Jiang Nannan, blocking her way. He had one arm around Jiang Nannan's waist, and the other hand held a huge shield behind him.

By this time, the shield was already tattered and torn, and his back was covered in tattered clothes, all marked with burns and frost, and even emitting wisps of smoke. Blood dripped from his lips, as if he had been injured by the powerful energy burst just now.

Jiang Nannan stared blankly at He Caitou, who was holding her in his arms. She, who usually loathed men, surprisingly didn't kick him away. She herself was also badly injured; her dark green competition uniform had been reduced to rags, revealing patches of skin covered in frost and charred black.

Although she looked miserable, she was in much better shape than He Caitou, because she only had superficial injuries, while He Caitou had blocked the impact of the explosion.

"Are you alright?" Jiang Nannan asked, looking at He Caitou's charcoal-black face, in a question that sounded like a nonsensical literary exercise.

He Caitou grinned and said in a hoarse voice, "You're still alive. I'm glad you're alright."

After saying that, his tall body collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Nannan was startled. As He Caitou lost consciousness, his entire body lost its support and pressed her down.

"We concede defeat in this match." A figure swept onto the field, Huo Yuhao's voice flat and even.

After Huo Yuhao grabbed He Caitou's arm and hoisted him onto his back, Xu Sanshi finally realized what was happening and rushed to the stage to help Jiang Nannan up as well.

"Nannan, Nannan, how badly are you injured? Holy crap, so many burns and frostbite? Those two girls from Qianling Academy are too ruthless!" Xu Sanshi's eyes turned red as he looked at the mess on Jiang Nannan's body.

"I'm alright, that's good?" Jiang Nannan murmured unconsciously, completely unaware that the person who helped her up was the playboy she hated the most. Her gaze was fixed on He Caitou the whole time.

In the explosion, she had intended to use her invincible golden body in conjunction with the defensive soul tool Wang Yan had provided to withstand the impact. However, less than three seconds later, He Caitou grabbed her waist and pulled her back beneath him. Then, taking advantage of the moment Jiang Nannan blocked the first wave of impact, He Caitou pulled out a massive shield from his storage soul tool and held it behind him, absorbing the entire shockwave from the subsequent explosions. His eventual unconsciousness was simply due to excessive consumption of soul power and complete exhaustion. With his strong physique, although he suffered some shockwave injuries, thanks to Jiang Nannan's invincible golden body and the shield's cushioning, they weren't particularly serious.

After the shockwave was blocked by He Caitou, Jiang Nannan mainly had to endure the damage caused by the ice and fire attributes contained in that skill. Although her soul power was also exhausted in the process of resisting, she was mostly injured by flesh and skin. After applying some ointment and resting for a couple of days, she would be fine.

Although they lost the first match, the result was even better than Huo Yuhao had expected. Although it seemed tragic, the injuries suffered by the two of them were not serious.

Huo Yuhao secretly glanced at Xu Sanshi, a subtle and strange expression on his face.

Very good. Although the teammate was not actually sacrificed, the effect was just as good. Someone is already showing signs of becoming "all-powerful".

"The first match, a two-on-two battle, has been won by Thousand Spirits Advanced Soul Master Academy. Both sides, please send out your teams for the second match," the referee announced loudly.

The surrounding audience was in an uproar, all staring in disbelief at Shrek Academy's decision to concede defeat.

This is Shrek Academy, a tradition passed down for thousands of years!

Even though it's only one of three matches, the invincible Shrek Academy actually had to admit defeat!?

It's incredible!
In the stands, Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo held hands tightly, their faces full of worry: "How could this happen? They actually lost the first match?"

Looking at the chaotic arena, Xie Huanyue said with lingering fear, "Given the power of that martial soul combination skill, it's a miracle they didn't lose any limbs. Their loss is not unjust."

Dai Huabin remained silent, his face terribly grim, his fingernails digging into his flesh. He believed that if he and Zhu Lu were to fight, given the power of the Netherworld White Tiger, the outcome would be uncertain. The infuriating thing was that he didn't even get a chance to participate!
In the waiting area of ​​Shrek Academy, although everyone was mentally prepared for the result of the first match, when defeat actually came, everyone still felt a tightness in their chest, as if a big stone had been stuffed into their heart, and a heavy pressure quietly grew.

Huo Yuhao gave Bei Bei a serious look, then patted Xu Sanshi heavily on the shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Although we lost the first match, this is not unexpected. After all, we had already expected this result. The second match is the most important. Qianling Academy will definitely press their advantage and go all out, because as long as they win the second match, they will win."

"According to Teacher Wang's deduction, in order to secure victory in this two-on-two match, they will definitely send out the two strongest players among their remaining members. In other words, their players will definitely be Captain Shen Ce and the strongest of the four defensive-type battle spirit masters, a typical offensive and defensive combination, just like yours."

Seeing my teammates sacrificed, please add this to your favorites and recommend it!
