Douluo: Traveling Through the Universe, Reversing Time and Space

Chapter 167: Battle Spirit Royal Academy, the bad tactics
Shi Yu's performance had already attracted much attention and received a lot of attention. After this battle, the attention on him reached an unprecedented level.
There was a lot of discussion at the scene, and everyone was amazed at Shi Yu's performance.
After the match, Shi Yu's performance spread like wildfire throughout the city, becoming a hot topic of discussion among people.
He was mentioned more times than all the other contestants combined, even several times more.
Some of the spirit master families and forces in Xingluo City are trying to contact Shi Yu and recruit him.
After asking around, they could only give up helplessly because the royal family had already extended an olive branch to Shi Yu, and it was no longer their turn to recruit him.
The Xingluo Royal Family also revealed the news that Shi Yu had become an honorary priest of the Xingluo Royal Family.
This was to completely cut off the thoughts of those who wanted to recruit Shi Yu's forces and tell them that Shi Yu was already a member of the royal family.
Many people still know the difference between honorary offerings and offerings.
Strictly speaking, Shi Yu is not a member of the Xingluo royal family, but they have a good relationship.
But this also made them not dare to have too much contact with Shi Yu.
The Xingluo Imperial Family's attitude was clear: if they forced contact, they would be poaching from the Xingluo Imperial Family, something they would not tolerate.
With the royal family helping to fend off those who wanted to recruit him, Shi Yu was happy to have some peace and quiet.
On his days off, he would spend his time in the house studying magic, trying to fuse as many magic circles as possible with his Eight Spider Lance Soul Bone.
After defeating Zhengtian Academy, the next two academies they faced were relatively easy to deal with.
They were also lucky enough to get group battles and individual battles, and didn't have to use their least favorite two-two-three strategy.
Before we knew it, the group stage of the competition had entered its mid-to-late stages.
Shrek Academy's current rivals are only Douling Royal Academy and Di'ao Academy.
These are also the two most difficult academies to deal with. Douling Royal Academy is the strongest academy in the Douling Empire, and its strength is naturally unquestionable.
The strength of the Diao Academy is even stronger, and the presence of a Soul Emperor makes it even more difficult to deal with.
The worst thing for Shi Yu and the others was that Ma Xiaotao's recovery wasn't as good as expected. It would be best if she could play normally after the two matches.
Dai Yuheng and He Caitou had also regained consciousness a long time ago, but their conditions were worse, so they could basically be disregarded for this competition.
"Shrek, Shrek!" As the Shrek Academy students arrived at the rest area, the audience cheered excitedly.
Today's match is truly exciting. Shrek Academy versus the strongest academy in the Battle Spirit Empire. This battle is bound to be a head-to-head battle, incredibly intense.
The audience was extremely excited, while the players from both schools were quite nervous, each believing the other to be difficult to handle.
With the previous example of Zhengtian Academy being defeated by a single opponent, Douling Royal Academy was very reluctant to be drawn into a single match, as it was the most disadvantageous way to play.
At that time, Yu's teleportation ability was simply outrageous. In one-on-one combat, he was basically invincible. They had no good countermeasures.
If the opponent also defeated them seven times, it would be a huge loss of face.
Shrek Academy was worried about drawing the 223 strategy, which was the most disadvantageous way of playing for them.
You have to know that Douling Royal Academy has five Soul Kings. If they use a 223 battle strategy, then two of them will have to face the other two Soul Kings.
These two people refer to the two people besides Shi Yu. Shi Yu is confident that he can defeat the other two Soul Kings, but the others may not be so sure.
If they lose the second game, there's no need for them to compete in the third game.
If they wanted to achieve victory in the 223 strategy, they had to win the first two rounds. If they couldn't, they could declare defeat.
Shi Yu, as the captain, went on stage to draw lots.
The result made him feel not very good, as he drew the 223 tactics which he least wanted to draw.
The Douling Royal Academy was all beaming with joy. This was the situation they were most eager to see, and they all felt that the results could be announced.
"There's nothing I can do," Shi Yu said helplessly after returning.
Huo Yuhao, Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao all looked grave. How could they win?
"In order to win, I have no choice but to fight," Ma Xiaotao said as she stood up.
She also came along, thinking of fighting at the critical moment.
"If you attack now, it will easily aggravate your injury and worsen your condition, which may affect your performance later," Zhang Lexuan advised.
Ma Xiaotao's injuries will be almost fully recovered after five or six days of rest, and she will be able to perform her normal actions again.
But it's not good enough now. It's easy to make the injury worse, which will take longer to be able to shoot normally.
"There's nothing I can do about it. If I don't take action, we'll probably lose this match. Shrek Academy can't afford to lose easily. Let's talk about it later," Ma Xiaotao said.
Xuan Lao was silent, wanting to dissuade him, but considering the honor of Shrek Academy, he remained silent, his inner remorse becoming even heavier.
It's all my fault for not being able to protect these participating children.
Shi Yu saw Ma Xiaotao's determined expression and did not try to persuade her any further.
"Then Senior Xiaotao, you and Sister Nannan will play together in the second game. We can tactically give up the first game, and I will play in the third game," Shi Yu thought for a moment.
And briefly explained his reasons.
The opponent may assume that they will play the first game, which leads to two possibilities.
Either they wanted to fight hard and send out their two strongest Soul Kings to fight, or they used their two weakest Soul Masters to fight against themselves.
In the second case, they are bound to lose the first game, and the first case is also a high probability event.
They might assume they lost the first game, and then they would definitely send out a winning lineup for the second game, which would be two Soul Kings.

It should be inevitable to let Ma Xiaotao and Jiang Nannan win together.
Ma Xiaotao was, after all, a Soul Emperor, and one about to break through to the Soul Saint stage. If he attacked despite his injuries, the two Soul Kings would be unable to cope.
This would mean a third match, in which he would either easily crush a Soul King and two Soul Masters, or face three Soul Kings.
Whatever the situation, he was somewhat confident.
"This should be the safest arrangement," Ma Xiaotao agreed.
Zhang Lexuan and Elder Xuan also nodded. Huo Yuhao and the others had no objection to Shi Yu's arrangement.
The referee began to let the students from both teams come on the field.
Two people came out from Douling Royal Academy, and one person came out from Shrek Academy.
Xiao Xiao nervously walked onto the competition stage. She was the only one from Shrek Academy competing in the first match.
This two-two-three strategy requires a maximum of two, two, or three players, but there is no requirement for this number of players to compete.
