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

Chapter 212 Eight to Four, Encountering Zheng Tian Again!

Watching the members of the Douling team walk off the stage dejectedly, Huo Yuhao shook his head slightly and walked off the stage.

The difference between an ordinary person and a genius is like the difference between dust on the ground and stars in the sky, leaving one feeling utterly helpless. The difference between an ordinary genius and a prodigy is like the difference between stars and the moon, equally leaving one feeling powerless.

Huo Yuhao knew that if Gu Zhujian couldn't shake off the shadow of today, then he, the so-called number one genius of Douling Academy, would only slowly fade into obscurity and disappear from everyone's sight.

Huo Yuhao single-handedly ended this individual elimination round, and at the same time, he also sent Shrek Academy into the top eight of this competition.

Watching Huo Yuhao walk calmly towards the waiting area, Ma Xiaotao's eyes were filled with pride and another strange emotion. When Huo Yuhao calmly announced on the field that his Soul Master level had reached the High-level Soul King, Ma Xiaotao suddenly had a clear realization: the little boy who used to play with a toy gun by the Sea God Lake had really grown up. He could stand on his own and was capable of protecting himself.

After this battle, Shrek Academy's reputation soared once again. Especially Huo Yuhao; it's likely that over 80% of the spectators who came to watch the match became his die-hard fans. He was a Soul King! A twelve-year-old high-level Soul King—besides Huo Yuhao, they had never heard of anyone else possessing such an outrageous level of cultivation at such a young age!
As the saying goes, the layman sees the spectacle, the expert sees the details. For those who already had a deeper understanding of the world of Soul Masters, the shock they felt was even more profound. For example, there was Xu Jiawei, the Star Luo Emperor; Du Busi, the Sect Master of the Body Sect; the other academies Shrek Academy might encounter later; and the spies from various large and small forces secretly watching all of this!

In the next quarterfinals, Shrek Academy was lucky enough to draw a very favorable opponent: the weakest team in the quarterfinals, an old rival they had faced once before – Zheng Tian Academy!
That morning, in Shrek's private meeting room, everyone was having breakfast and chatting casually about the upcoming quarterfinals.

Xu Sanshi took a big bite of his steak and said between chews, "Hey, do you guys think Zhengtian Academy will just give up today? In the last competition, I saw that their captain, that ice-faced guy named Ye Wuqing, seems to have had his defenses broken by Senior Sister Ma, right?"

“Yeah! I’ve been thinking about this too. It’s not just Ye Wuqing, but also that Angel Soul Master named Yu Mengdi. She seems to be the second strongest in Zheng Tian Academy? Yu Hao’s cannon shot before, tsk tsk, it made her face turn pale. She probably has some psychological trauma from it, right?” Bei Bei chuckled.

Wang Yan looked relaxed and said slowly, "Xiao Tao and the other two have now recovered to their peak condition, and with Yu Hao also advancing to Soul King, our overall strength absolutely crushes them. As for whether they will give up directly, I think it's impossible."

Xiao Xiao looked at Wang Yan curiously: "Teacher Wang, why do you say that? Judging from the comparison of the strength of both sides, Zheng Tian Academy is far behind us. Whether it's team battles or individual battles, we have an absolute advantage. Unless there's a miracle, no matter how hard they struggle, it will be difficult for them to defeat us, right?"

“That’s right. Besides, their two strongest Soul Masters’ confidence has probably been destroyed by Senior Sister Xiao Tao and Yu Hao. How could they possibly have a chance against us again?” Wang Dong’er also chimed in with a laugh.

Wang Yan slowly shook his head and said seriously, "When we clashed with Zheng Tian Academy before, we used a 2-2-3 formation. This kind of competition has a clear advantage for the side with stronger individual strength. But the current elimination round is different. First, there is a team battle, and then there is an individual battle. In the team battle format, the reasonable combination and tacit cooperation of the Soul Masters, as well as the tactical arrangement, are more important. The advantage of individuals will be reduced."

"More importantly, at this stage, the loss of one side means the end of this competition. Although Ye Wuqing was severely defeated by Xiao Tao before, he is, after all, the most outstanding student of Zhengtian Academy, and his mentality should not be that fragile. If their team leader is not stupid, he certainly will not just admit defeat like this. Avoiding the fight will only be more damaging to Ye Wuqing's mentality!"

"So even if they are not as strong as us overall, they will definitely fight to see who can win."

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly in agreement: "That's right, I also think they can't possibly give up the chance to fight it out in a team battle. After all, in this kind of battle, once the tactics are countered, even if you're strong, you're not guaranteed to win. There are too many variables." Chen Zifeng waved his arm vigorously and said excitedly, "They absolutely mustn't give up! I finally recovered from my injury and came back to play. I've been holding back for so long, it's time for me to show my skills, right?"

Ma Xiaotao suddenly burst out laughing, "Haha, I almost forgot you're still a regular member of our team. Let's go, if they want to give it their all, I'll teach them a lesson today and make them wake up!"

Starry Sky Square was already packed with people. Meanwhile, on the city wall, His Majesty the Emperor appeared on time, eagerly anticipating whether Shrek Academy would bring any new surprises today.

Huo Yuhao remained at the forefront, drawing all eyes to the field as he calmly led the Shrek Academy members toward the waiting area.

The members of the Zhengtian Academy team had been waiting in their own waiting area. When they saw the Shrek Academy team appear, their expressions became even more serious.

Huo Yuhao glanced sideways and saw their captain, Ye Wuqing, standing in the first position without hesitation. His face was somewhat pale, and his clenched fists were so tight that even the knuckles were slightly white. Clearly, he was not as calm as he appeared on the surface.

Huo Yuhao's lips curled up, and he suddenly whispered to Ma Xiaotao beside him, "Sister Xiaotao, you're too fierce. Look, you've really given her psychological trauma."

Ma Xiaotao pursed her lips and suddenly replied, "Is he really that fierce? Okay then, I'll try to be gentler in the future."

Huo Yuhao turned around in surprise and saw Ma Xiaotao's pretty face with her eyebrows slightly furrowed as she pondered. A strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

"The quarterfinals are about to begin. The two teams facing off are Shrek Academy and Heavenly Soul Empire's Zheng Tian Academy. Please bring your players to the stage!" the referee announced loudly.

"Shrek! Shrek!"

"Huo Yuhao! Huo Yuhao! One more shot! One more shot!"

On the Zhengtian Academy side, Ye Wuqing led the way, with a male and a female team member on each side behind him. One of them was none other than the Angel Soul Master Yu Mengdi.

Hearing the shouts from the audience, Yu Mengdi couldn't help but twitch her lips and subconsciously turned her gaze to Huo Yuhao across from her.

We've met again! Guess what will happen this time? There's a surprise!
