Chapter 112 Individual Competition, Obtaining the Soul-Devouring Blade
Chapter 112 Individual Competition, Obtaining the Soul-Devouring Blade
As a knockout match for the top 16, it is natural that a team will not be eliminated by just holding a team battle. Instead, there will be individual competitions afterwards.
If the team scores are tied after the individual matches, there is an overtime two, two, three mode to decide the final victory or defeat.
This is also the reason why Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng are dissatisfied with Huo Yuhao.
If the Douling Team has one less disabled member, Shrek Academy will have to face one more strong enemy in the individual competition instead of the reserve. Doesn’t this increase their workload?
There were limitations on what she could do, and without the help of the Ultimate Ice to suppress her, Ma Xiaotao naturally reacted the most to this incident.
On the other hand, Dai Yueheng did not say anything, perhaps to save Huo Yuhao’s face and to win him over. He even comforted and supported Huo Yuhao after Ma Xiaotao left.
As to whether Dai Yuheng really thought so in his heart, it is unknown.
Huo Yuhao felt that Dai Yueheng just wanted to save trouble. After all, the Dai family didn’t care about their reputation, but cared more about efficiency. In the original novel, Dai Yueheng was the most ruthless.
Back to the game.
After a day’s rest, the individual knockout competition started on time on the third day.
Huo Yuhao had nothing to do in the individual competition and could only be a spectator at the side.
If Wang Dong hadn’t pulled him back, Huo Yuhao would have even wanted to use the time he spent watching the game to meditate.
Under Wang Yan’s arrangement, Dai Yueheng was the first to appear. Ma Xiaotao was placed last.
Wang Yan still did not let Ma Xiaotao go. After Ma Xiaotao suppressed her anger and came out of the hotel room, Wang Yan started scolding her.
Ma Xiaotao originally wanted to refute, but Wang Yan brought up Huo Yuhao’s command ability. Huo Yuhao relied on his knowledge of the plot and made several tactical arrangements that were completely recognized by others.
Instead, it further highlights Ma Xiaotao’s incompetence as team leader.
When Dai Yuheng walked onto the stage on behalf of Shrek Academy, the captain of the Douling Team, Gu Zhujian, also walked slowly towards the stage.
“Thank you for showing mercy in the last game.”
Unlike the tense situation that Dai Yaoheng had imagined, the Lone Bamboo Sword did not have the murderous intent that he had imagined.
You must know that the outcome of this personal battle basically determines whether the team can continue in this Soul Master Competition.
However, since the opponent took the initiative to show goodwill, Dai Yuheng would not refuse and nodded silently.
After the last team match, Gu Zhu Jian originally thought that under the coverage of Shrek’s powerful soul skills, the team might suffer heavy casualties.
There is even a possibility that some people might be seriously injured and their future might be affected.
As a result, when they got off the stage, they found that almost all the members were still alive and well. Although they were injured, they were only superficial wounds that could be recovered with a healing soul skill.
Judging from the team members’ reactions, several meteor showers deflected when they were about to hit them, so they did not suffer serious damage.
Originally, Gu Zhu Jian went on stage intending to admit defeat directly.
After all, Shrek had enough energy to control his attack in such a situation. It can only be said that the gap between the two sides may be greater than Gu Zhu Jian imagined.
However, feeling the momentum of Dai Yuheng in front of him, Gu Zhu Jian changed his words temporarily and just thanked Shrek for showing mercy.
“Guzhu Sword, please teach me!”
Summoning his martial spirit, he swung the Solitary Bamboo Sword towards Dai Yueheng.
He didn’t use any soul skills, just a simple slash, but it made Dai Yuheng feel like he was facing a formidable enemy.
Dai Yuheng could have used his soul skills to break it with force, but he knew that if he did so, although he would win the game, he might be inferior in some aspects.
“Zheng——!”
With the White Tiger Martial Spirit possessing his body, sharp claws popped out, and Dai Yueheng also rushed towards Dugu Jian.
The two did not use any spirit skills, but fought with pure skill and strength.
At the same time, both sides also discussed the battle.
The fight ended with Dai Yueheng’s tiger claws tightly grasping Gu Zhujian’s neck. “Your skills are indeed good. If you and I were at the same level, I would have to spend a lot of effort to defeat you. Unfortunately, I am a Soul Emperor, and you are a Soul King. Moreover, your martial soul still lacks a powerful attack that can win in one blow. Even if you are also a Soul Emperor, you will still be the one to die in a life-and-death duel. If I wanted to kill you, you would be a corpse now.”
The game was very short, but although it looked simple and straightforward, the danger contained in it was felt by players on both sides.
Both sides just fought without using soul power, and even did not use soul skills. At the same time, they even gave up the most basic soul power to protect their bodies.
Therefore, as long as the attack hits the opponent, it will definitely end in blood. At this time, as long as Dai Yuheng’s tiger claw moves forward even a little bit, the head of Guzhu Sword will be separated from its body.
Gu Zhujian showed a bitter smile on his face: “Thank you, Brother Dai, for showing mercy.”
Dugu Jian knew that he was still a little timid when fighting, and was still considering whether to stop when attacking, but Dai Yuheng never showed mercy and every move he made was ruthless.
Add to that a Soul Emperor, a Soul King, a Beast Martial Soul, and a Weapon Martial Soul, and the Lone Bamboo Sword couldn’t even leave many wounds on Dai Yuheng’s body.
Looking at myself, my clothes were torn by the tiger’s claws and the blood was so scary.
Even though his name contains the words “bamboo sword”, he is not as fearless as the other two. He still lacks the determination to do whatever it takes.
After taking a healing pill to suppress his injuries, Gu Zhu Jian shouted to the referee: “As the captain of the Douling Team, I declare that the Douling Team admits defeat.”
“Brother Dai, see you again if we are lucky enough!”
Gu Zhujian waved his hand and walked down from the arena.
After this battle, Shrek Academy became famous again. The two Soul Emperors, Dai Yueheng and Ma Xiaotao, left a deep impression on the audience.
In the next round of the quarterfinals, Shrek Academy was lucky enough to draw a good lot. They were the weakest team among the top eight. In fact, they were old acquaintances, the Zhengtian Academy team that had once caused great trouble to Huo Yuhao and his team.
The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition has come to this point and is nearing its end, and the end also means the arrival of the final.
At this point, Huo Yuhao basically has no room to play unless it is a team battle.
After all, Erhuan’s cultivation is there.
But from another perspective, even in such a fierce competition, Huo Yuhao, the second ring, never missed the team battle, and sometimes even when Xu Sanshi was about to play, he would squeeze Bei Bei out.
“Bang, bang, bang.” There were knocks on the door, waking Huo Yuhao from his meditation.
It was Wang Yan who was standing outside the door. Seeing Huo Yuhao’s eyes still shining with golden light because his soul power had not yet been completely restrained, Wang Yan was slightly stunned.
“Sorry to bother you while you’re practicing.” Wang Yan said apologetically.
When Huo Yuhao saw that it was Wang Yan, he also thought about what Wang Yan wanted to talk to him about, but he still stepped aside and said, “Teacher Wang, come in and sit down.”
Wang Yan said: “No. How about this, Yuhao, come with me.”
After closing the door, Wang Yan called Huo Yuhao to the desk in the room and said in a deep voice, “Look.”
On Wang Yan’s desk, lying quietly was a carving knife with simple patterns, and next to the carving knife was a ring that had been broken into two pieces.
“Teacher Wang, this is…” Huo Yuhao asked in deliberate surprise.
Wang Yan said: “My storage ring is also a fourth-level soul guide. However, I didn’t expect that it could not withstand the power of the Soul Devouring Fierce Blade.”
“When I got this Soul Devouring Fierce Knife earlier, I felt a fierce aura from the knife constantly impacting my storage ring, but I didn’t feel much at the time.”
“As a result, when I woke up this morning, I found that the ring was broken and completely damaged. The carving knife is constantly emitting a fierce aura. As long as I touch it with my hand, I can feel the cold air flowing into my body. I need to circulate my soul power for at least half a day to drive it away.”
The price of a level 4 storage soul guide is not cheap! It was damaged like this, it would be strange if Wang Yan didn’t feel bad.
but……
Huo Yuhao doesn’t have any very powerful storage soul guide!
