Douluo Continent: The creation of Jixia Academy made Bibi Dong drool with envy.

Chapter 77 The Elusive Zhuang Zhou!
The clamor and frenzy within the Heavenly Battle Arena did not cease with the end of any particular match.

The selection trials for the Tian Dou region of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament are still in full swing.

Intense battles, clashes of martial spirits, and deafening cheers and shouts form the main theme of this glorious battlefield.

Time slipped away quietly amidst the sweat and dreams of countless Soul Masters.

The brutal elimination system is like a merciless sieve, eliminating those academy teams that are not strong enough or have bad luck one by one.

Those who survive to the end are either true elites or... monsters with overwhelming strength!

And on this star-studded field.

The most dazzling, the most eye-catching, and also the most...despairing existences are undoubtedly the two teams from Jixia Academy—the King Team and the Xiaochu Team!

Both the King's Team led by Jing and the Xiaochu Team led by Dugu Yan demonstrated terrifying strength and...suffocating dominance far beyond their age group and even far beyond most veteran Soul Masters.

The Kings team goes without saying.

Jing, Hua Mulan, Dongfang Yao, Pei Qinhu, Gongsun Li, Ji Xiaoman, and Cai Wenji—each of these seven individuals, taken individually, would be outstanding among their peers.

When the seven of them joined forces, it was as if divine soldiers had descended from the heavens, and they were invincible.

They often don't even need to deploy their entire team; just two or three people working together can easily crush any opponent with overwhelming force.

The fluid teamwork, the unbelievable use of soul skills, and the almost monstrous combat awareness left all the spectators in awe and made all the opponents... intimidated before the battle even began.

While the Xiaochu team is slightly inferior to the Wangzhe team in terms of overall strength and individual talent of its members.

But after undergoing Sima Yi's hellish, devilish training...

These boys and girls, who were originally considered geniuses, have already undergone a complete transformation! They may not have the dazzling brilliance of the Kings team, but they have gained a kind of... resilience and ruthlessness honed in blood and fire.

Their teamwork became more seamless, their tactics more cunning, and their eyes more...cold.

They also displayed overwhelming strength when facing weaker teams from ordinary academies.

Towards the end of the selection process, a strange phenomenon emerged—

Whenever an academy is drawn to face a team from Jixia Academy, their teachers and players will very discreetly... collectively raise their hands in surrender before the match begins.
Are you kidding me? !

Are you going up there to get tortured?!

Didn't you see how those stubborn teams were swiftly and decisively defeated, leaving them crying for their parents?

Even their martial spirit was almost traumatized by the attack?!

Rather than going up there and making a fool of themselves, it's better to conserve their strength and compete with other normal college teams for that... precious third place.

That's right.

Third place!
Because everyone knew perfectly well that the champion and runner-up of this year's Tiandou Division had already been reserved by the two superhuman teams from Jixia Academy.
All these ordinary students could hope for was that last spot in the finals.

In this atmosphere of near-pre-arranged results, the selection competition for the Tiandou region gradually drew to a close.

Besides the two most dazzling suns of Jixia Academy.

Shrek Academy's performance was... commendable.

Thanks to Captain Tang Yin's almost tyrannical individual strength and the support of the other team members, they actually managed to overcome numerous obstacles and narrowly win all the way, ultimately... successfully making it into the list of those who would advance to the finals.

Although the process was full of hardship and...bloodshed.

But for the audience of Tian Dou City, all they remember is that blue-haired youth, Tang Yin, who was like a god of death on the field, leading his team forward single-handedly.

As for the other members of Shrek Academy?

Well... I'd say it's not too bad.

At least... I didn't hold anyone back.

It's not good at all.

……finally.

Amidst the anticipation and complex emotions of many, the Tiandou Regional Selection Tournament has officially come to a close.

The teams that have advanced to the finals have also been determined.

The top three teams in the Tiandou division have been determined.

Jixia Kings Team!

Jixia Xiaochu Team!
And... the New Shrek Academy team!
This result was both expected and... seemed to carry a touch of fateful coincidence.

Next, these teams, representing the highest level in the Heaven Dou region, will travel to the venue for the Continental Soul Master Tournament Finals, along with top teams selected from the other two empires and the Spirit Hall.

Wuhun City!!!
A city filled with glory, strife, intrigue, and endless crisis.

Jixia Academy, Dean's Quiet Room.

Yan Boshan was not at all surprised by the result of the Tiandou Division.

The combined strength of the Kings Team and the Valiant Team is enough to crush everything.

Shrek Academy's advancement was entirely due to Tang San... no, now he should be called Tang Yin.

It was just the last bit of protagonist's halo that the flawed chosen one of destiny unleashed in the face of despair.

But it doesn't matter.

What he needs to consider now is his safety on his way to Wuhun City.

The Spirit Hall, and Pope Bibi Dong, who has completely severed ties with Yu Xiaogang and become even more insane and unpredictable…

They will absolutely not allow the two teams from Jixia Academy to shine in the Tiandou Division.

They even stole the spotlight from the team, but they just stood by and did nothing!
The gun is easy to hide, and the dark arrow is hard to prevent.

Bibi Dong, that madwoman, has never played by the rules.

Although Yan Boshan was confident that with the current strength of Jixia Academy and his many hidden trump cards, he was not afraid at all even if Bibi Dong came out in full force.

But... there's no need.

Before the final battle, he didn't want to reveal too much of his strength too early, nor did he want his students to be put in unnecessary danger.

"It seems that this trip to Wuhun City will require... a few more layers of insurance."

A glint of light flashed in Yan Boshan's eyes.

This time, not only Zhuge Liang and Sima Yi, the two team leaders, must accompany the team throughout the entire process to ensure the safety and stability of both teams.

He also decided…

Please introduce one of the three sages of Jixia Academy, the one who seems to be immersed in dreams all day, detached from worldly affairs.

In reality, their strength is unfathomable, and they may even possess some ability to foresee or resolve crises…

Zhuang Zhou.

He secretly followed the team, acting as their final protector.

With Zhuangzi's elusive and dreamlike butterfly dream power, he could handle most unexpected situations, and even... turn the tide at crucial moments.

"In that case... there's absolutely no chance of anything going wrong."

Yan Boshan smiled slightly, having already made up his mind.

Wuhun City... Bibi Dong...

I'd like to see just how many surprises you can bring me!
