Douluo: I started with Blue Silver Grass, and I counterattacked and defeated the gods

Chapter 79: Team Battle with Shrek Academy

Although he killed Cheng Gang, the guardian of the Xing Luo Empire, Zhou Ke returned to the Xinghuang Hotel very calmly.

It was as if nothing had happened.

He was not worried at all that someone would link Cheng Gang's disappearance to him.

After all, who would connect the beginning and end of a Titled Douluo with a weak Four-Ring Soul Sect like him?

On the second day, the individual competition for the top 8 started.

As expected, the teams that won the team battle yesterday entered the quarterfinals.

There was not even a single case of someone turning defeat into victory in an individual battle.

In the subsequent round of eight to four, Sun Moon Academy once again easily defeated its opponent.

In the semi-finals of the top four to the top two, their opponent is Xingluo Royal Academy.

Princess Jiujiu, who presided over the auction that day, also temporarily used the substitute position that Xingluo Academy had reserved and joined the competition.

All members are Soul Kings, plus powerful Star Crown Martial Souls and special soul skills that consume star power.

It still caused some trouble to Sun and Moon Academy.

This forced Ma Rulong to use another seventh-level soul guide that could concentrate its power.

Zhou Ke did not participate in the above-mentioned games. He watched the games in the rest area with the Hong Chen brothers and sisters who had been sitting on the bench.

Like them, Ma Xiaotao, who advanced to the semi-finals of Shrek Academy, also did not appear again, just like Zhou Ke.

However, during the game, she still entered the waiting area to support the team. After all, there were only four players in Shrek Academy including her.

And just like that, the final battle arrived.

The team battles, individual battles, and two-two-three tactics that determine which college is the champion of this tournament will all take place on this day.

However, the weather was not very good that day. At noon, the sky was still dark, as if the whole world was covered by frosted glass.

Cool raindrops fell from time to time, and the swirling cold wind made people subconsciously tighten their clothes.

But even so, it could not dampen the excitement of the people who came to watch the game.

The cheers that continued to resound seemed to be able to disperse the gloomy clouds in the sky.

In the imperial city, the expression of Xu Jiawei, the Emperor of Xingluo who came to watch the battles every day, was no longer as gentle as usual, but rather very tense.

Whether it was the Queen, the attendants, or the Prime Minister, they all vaguely sensed that the Emperor was in a bad mood these days, but they didn't know why.

Only his sister Xu Jiujiu knew why her brother's mood changed from happy in the previous two days to gloomy and worried.

Cheng Gang is missing, and no one knows whether he is alive or dead, and no one knows where he is.

The sudden disappearance of a Titled Douluo would not make Xu Jiawei so worried.

He is now worried that Cheng Gang’s disappearance is related to the hundred thousand year soul bone, especially to his series of arrangements against the Sun Moon Empire.

If Cheng Gang had died at the hands of those sects, he could still accept such an outcome.

If this guy went to the Sun-Moon Empire and snatched soul bones regardless of everything.

The thought of him causing trouble in Mingdu with the title of Star Luo Empire's Protector of the Nation Douluo made me feel a little sad.

Xu Jiawei felt a slight pain between his eyebrows.

Although anyone with a normal mind would not do such a stupid thing, but knowing Cheng Gang's past, he knew that this greedy guy might really do it.

This turn of events made Xu Jiawei feel like he had shot himself in the foot.

He has sent three Nation Protectors to Mingdu, the capital of the Sun-Moon Empire, to try to stop the undesirable event from happening, or at least minimize its impact.

To be honest, when he learned that he was missing, even he, a well-mannered emperor who had been on the throne for many years, couldn't help but swear.

Now that things have come to this, what else can be done?

After sighing softly in his heart, he changed his expression and smiled at the person coming from his right.

The man looked to be in his early thirties, with deep eye sockets and deep blue pupils filled with iron-blooded determination.

In the army of the Xing Luo Empire, there is the White Tiger Duke Dai Hao, whose majesty even surpasses that of the emperor.

After the proper etiquette between the monarch and his subjects.

Xu Jiawei said with a smile:

"Yueheng and Huabin are both in the Shrek Academy team. My dear brother, you have always been able to foresee things. Have you ever anticipated this rare scene?"

Dai Hao shook his head and said:

"I was also extremely surprised when I heard the news. I did not expect Shrek Academy to play such a trick this time."

Xu Jiawei chuckled twice and changed the subject:
"Come to think of it, the last time you and I watched a game in Xingluo City, we were still young. Now that I think about it, twenty years have passed!"

Dai Hao, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes, echoed:
"Yes!"

While the emperor and his ministers were reminiscing about the past, all members of the two teams, Sun Moon Royal Academy and Shrek Academy, had already arrived at their respective waiting areas.

Xu Jiawei nodded towards Dai Hao.

Dai Hao immediately shouted in a deep voice towards the noisy audience:

"quiet!"

The sonorous and powerful shout, with the blessing of soul power, spread throughout the whole place. After hearing his voice, the guards responsible for maintaining order also raised their weapons in unison, and the shouts of killing shook the earth.

The scene was stunned at once.

After Xu Jiawei stopped shouting, a gentle voice was transmitted through his soul power.

After some inspiring words, he announced the start of the final.

The audience seats, which should have been boiling with excitement again, became strangely quiet, and everyone stared intently at the competition stage.

Xu Jiawei also temporarily forgot about his worries and focused on the competition. He whispered:

"Brother, which of them do you think will win this first team battle?"

Dai Hao thought for a while, then gave the two sons who were looking at him in the battle zone a slightly encouraging look, and then he said:
"I don't know much about them, but Shrek Academy only has four regular players this time. I'm afraid it will be difficult for them to win the team battle, right?"

"Then my dear brother may make a wrong prediction again this time. On the contrary, I am more optimistic about Shrek Academy. Let us wait and see!"

The reason why he is optimistic about Shrek is because of the existence of Ma Xiaotao.

The power of the Evil Fire Phoenix was not well known to the Duke of White Tiger, who had lost his inheritance. How could the Emperor of Xing Luo not know it?

Moreover, he possessed the cultivation level of a Titled Douluo and his martial soul was the Star Crown. He could clearly feel the extremely violent aura from Ma Xiaotao.

According to records, the Evil Fire Phoenix Soul Master in this state is the most unstable, but it is also the strongest time.

As they were talking, players from both teams came on stage.

On the Shrek Academy side, those who appeared were Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, Ling Luochen, Ye Xiaosheng, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, and Ning Tian.

It has strong attack, control, agile attack, defense and assistance.

The players from Sun and Moon Royal Academy were Ma Rulong, Zhou Ke, Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, Micah, Chen Fei, and Xiao Xiafeng.

Both sides put the strong attack type in the front, the agile attack type on the side, and the control and auxiliary types at the end.

Even the mature and steady Ma Rulong could hardly contain his excitement under such circumstances.

Among the seven people, except for the indifferent Zhou Ke, all of them used serious expressions to hide their inner excitement, nervousness and other emotions.

The situation at Shrek Academy is pretty much the same.

Maybe it was because of his poor mental quality or because the temperature around Ma Xiaotao was too high, but Zhou Ke even saw beads of sweat on the forehead of the guy named Ye Xiaosheng.

Since the round of 16, the referee of every game has been replaced by the National Douluo Huang Jinxu.

After confirming that both parties had taken their positions, he said in a low voice:
"Game start!"

In an instant, dozens of surging soul power fluctuations swept across the entire competition stage.

Both parties, with their attention stretched to the extreme, completed the spirit possession in the first possible moment.

After the six soul rings appeared, Ma Xiaotao's pupils were engulfed by dark red flames with black energy.

She jumped up first, and her second and third soul rings flashed at the same time.

A pair of dazzling huge flaming wings and phoenix tail stretched out behind her.

After fully activating his martial soul and adding the two soul skills that amplify the power of fire, Phoenix Rising from the Ashes and Phoenix Wings Soaring in the Sky.

The dark red flame seemed to be born from the void and spread out like mercury.

In just a moment, she turned the entire competition stage into a world of fire.

The water vapor in the air was completely evaporated on the spot, and as the temperature rose sharply, a large amount of white smoke rose into the sky.

Then, the last black ring in the soul rings on Ma Xiaotao's side lit up.

The sound of the phoenix's cry was so loud that it almost pierced the eardrums.

The already huge fire wings turned into a size that covered half of the competition stage.

After fully opening, large ripples visible to the naked eye spread out.

Dark red fireballs with a diameter of more than one meter condensed out.

Wrapped in terrifying high temperatures and energy, they transformed into miniature fire phoenixes amid a series of air explosions.

Their flight paths suddenly changed from being straight to an erratic pattern.

fast!
It's just too fast.

It took Ma Xiaotao less than three seconds to unleash this powerful attack.

On Sun and Moon's side, in such a short time, there was no time to use the soul guides that could threaten the Soul Emperor.

However, they did not need to stop this as it had been expected.

Micah, who was holding a fluorescent defensive soul guide, suddenly withdrew his large shield.

It was revealed that there was a man standing beside him, carrying a huge cannon with a muzzle as wide as half a person.

An improved version of the seventh-level Thunder Cannon.

Rich dark blue plasma burst out from the muzzle.

The direction he was pointing to was not Ma Xiaotao in the air.

Moreover, after activating the three body-strengthening soul skills of White Tiger Body Barrier, White Tiger Vajra Transformation and White Tiger Demon God Transformation, Dai Yueheng was about to sprint to the front of the Sun and Moon Team with a burst of energy.
