Douluo Continent: The Twin Sons of the Styx River, Shaking the World and Destroying the Heavens

Chapter 83 Absolute Defense
Both sides need to ensure their own safety, so neither of them is going to put on an act anymore and is directly threatening themselves.

Your Majesty, could you please find someone else to be the referee next time? This is something I can't handle.

Neither Shrek Academy nor Sun Moon Academy can afford to have problems; it's best if neither side takes sides, right?

"The final match is between the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy team and Shrek Academy. Now I will announce the rules for the final match."

"The finals consist of a team competition, an individual elimination round, and a 2-2-3 strategy match. It will be a best-of-three series. In the team competition, each side will field seven players. After the team battle, both sides will have one opportunity to substitute players, but only this one. In the subsequent individual elimination round and 2-2-3 strategy match, each side can only field the same seven players, and no substitutions are allowed. The side that wins both matches will be the champion. Both sides are free to play their own game. The safety of both teams' players is the responsibility of this referee. If this referee discovers a situation that could result in a fatality, they will intervene in the match, and the team that benefits will be eliminated. Both sides will have five minutes to prepare before the team battle begins."

Both sides were in the waiting area, chatting for a bit and sharing some ideas about today's final match.

She stood silently, her gaze fixed on Dai Hao, as cold as frost, a chill seemingly frozen from the depths of the River Styx. When she swept over him, even the surrounding air seemed to freeze. Her eyes, deep and unfathomable, like undying stars in the eternal night, radiated a light that kept people at a distance. She spoke no words, simply observing silently, but that icy scrutiny was more intimidating than any words.

A hint of indifference lingered between her brows, as if everything before her was irrelevant, merely a fleeting passerby in her eyes. Her gaze held no superfluous emotion, only a calm scrutiny and judgment.

She then stopped paying attention to the matter and her face returned to its original gentle expression.

"Little sister A-Die, what's wrong?"

Following Xia Die's gaze, Meng Hongchen saw Duke Baihu on the city wall, his face cold and hard as he surveyed the entire arena.

Along with her was a duchess whose face looked very unwell.

Meng Hongchen smoothed her cascading silver hair and said in a calm tone, "The eldest son of the White Tiger Duke, Dai Yueheng, and the youngest son, Dai Huabin, will both represent Shrek Academy in the competition. As the future hope of the White Tiger Duke's mansion, the White Tiger Duke and Duchess have traveled a long way to watch the competition. It seems that he has high hopes for Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin."

"Wouldn't that be even better? It's a pity we're not team members. We really want to give Dai Yueheng and Dai Huabin a good beating right in front of him. His expression would be priceless!" Xiao Hongchen said coldly, his hands in his pockets.

“That makes sense. I’ve been wanting to teach these people from the Star Luo Empire who are openly and secretly targeting us a lesson for a long time. After your team battle is over and the individual competition starts, I’ll definitely take them down!” Meng Hongchen said calmly.

"Alright, Brother Ma and the others will go first."

"Okay, Ah Die, we must give Shrek a good beating."

"Will do……"

Shrek Academy.

Filled with nervous excitement, Dai Yueheng, chosen as the team leader, stood before the crowd. Looking up at his revered father, Duke Baihu, atop the city wall, his eyes blazed with anticipation, his fists clenched, clearly ready to display his prowess before his father. Although Duke Baihu only glanced at Dai Yueheng, that single look ignited a fierce fighting spirit within him, a spirit that had always looked up to Duke Baihu as a role model. He secretly vowed to perform well and show his father the results of his years of hard work!
He will surely lead the Shrek team to defeat the Sun-Moon Royal Team, win the championship, and spread the prestige of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion!

Dai Huabin, who was also encouraged by Dai Hao, couldn't help but hold Zhu Lu's hand tightly. His fierce eyes surged with a huge fighting spirit, and he wished he could go on the field now and sweep the Sun and Moon Royal Team out of the competition!

"Father, I've finally waited for this day! The Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament is where I will prove to you that I, Dai Huabin, am a chosen one worthy of the title of Duke of the White Tiger!" Dai Huabin roared inwardly. The position of Duke of the White Tiger, second only to the emperor and wielding immense power in the imperial army, was the goal he had aspired to pursue since his youth!

Now, he has been booked as the next Shrek Seven Devils, and as a substitute player of the Shrek team, he occupies a position that only regular players are qualified for. He represents Shrek Academy to fight against the Sun and Moon Royal Team and defend the eternal glory of Shrek!

The achievements made before are certainly worthy of recognition, but only by shining brightly on the field and showing amazing strength and talent can it be more convincing!
Dai Huabin held his head high, his heart filled with fighting spirit, and was also ready to show his skills!
Meanwhile, on their way to the competition, they ran into Xia Die and her friends, and sparks flew between them even before they took the stage.

Before Shrek could speak, Xiao Hongchen spoke first. Since he wouldn't be playing in the arena anyway, only in individual battles, he first mocked Shrek.

"Yo, yo, yo, isn't this the supposedly invincible Shrek Academy? Look at their murderous aura, I thought some evil spirit master had been released."

"You are right, right, Ah Die? Speaking of which, I just don't understand. Some people are good for nothing, but they just won't admit that they are good for nothing."

Faced with the Sun and Moon faction's initial offensive, how could Shrek possibly tolerate such humiliation?

"Damn it, once the match starts, I'm going to kill you all!"

But he was weak and powerless, did nothing all day but kick Shrek and his gang in the head. How could he say something like that to their face?
"Oh, can I understand it this way: you're admitting to killing someone in public?" Xiao Hongchen retorted directly.

"Don't tell me, I never said that. When we get on stage, I'll be the first to tear your stinking mouth apart, and then we'll see if you're still so arrogant."

"If you want to stop me, then wait for the individual competition. I don't need to play in team battles, but the premise is that your Shrek Academy can hold out until then. Don't let it get to the point where you can't even get a chance to play in the individual competition."

"You sharp-tongued brat, you're asking for it. Whether we make it to the individual competition is none of your business. All you need to know is how I beat down the team behind you."

"Oh dear, I'm so scared, but I wish you good luck."

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen went straight back, and the rest of the people had no intention of talking to them and went directly to the arena.

Ma Xiaotao snorted coldly and led her team onto the field. When Ma Xiaotao saw Xia Die at the front, her eyes were filled with apprehension.

"Hey, I'm telling you, with such great talent, why are you staying in that useless place, Sun Moon Academy? Why not join Shrek Academy?"

Upon hearing Ma Xiaotao's words, the expressions of the others changed drastically.

"No, this Shrek guy, I recognize all the individual words in what you said, but I just don't understand them when put together," Ma Rulong said.

But Xia Die spoke up, saying, "My lord, I'm sorry, your academy is not suitable for me, and your actions are beyond reproach."

!!!

The words, "I cannot comment," resonated like a thunderclap in everyone's hearts, and they were filled with utter anger.

Ma Xiaotao looked at Xia Die in front of her and was surprised that she was rejected so directly, and that her behavior was beyond reproach.

"you."

"Oh dear, don't get so agitated. Getting angry is bad for your health. Our little Adie didn't say anything wrong."

Ma Rulong said to Ma Xiaotao.

Ma Xiaotao snorted coldly, then led her team back a hundred meters away and said to Ma Rulong.

"You little brat, you'll see how powerful this old lady is in a minute."

Tian Sha Douluo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and muttered to himself, "It's that little brat again. Shrek Academy made me protect people, and now Sun Moon Academy wants me to protect people too."

He had witnessed Ma Xiaotao's actions firsthand; at the Douling Royal Academy, she had almost killed someone.

/077 The formations on both sides are arranged.

The Sun and Moon formation was simple, with Xia Die and Di Qiu'er at the front, followed by Ma Rulong, Gu Yuena, and Lin Xi.

Behind Gu Yuena was Xiao Xiafeng, and at the very back was... Polycia.

On Shrek Academy's side, it was no different from the Sun and Moon Royal Team. At the front were Dai Yueheng and Xu Sanshi, followed by Ma Xiaotao, then Tang Lin and Agya, and finally Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu.

The Heavenly Fiend Douluo exchanged glances with both the Sun Moon and Shrek Seven Devils, then said in a deep voice, "The match begins."

Both sides released their martial spirits immediately, and their strengths were immediately apparent.

Shrek Academy has one Soul Saint, one Soul Emperor, two Soul Kings, one Soul Sect Master, one Soul Venerable, and one Soul Master.

Levels 20 to 70 are all included.

April is relatively simple, with only four Soul Emperors and three Soul Kings.

Xu Sanshi had a smug look on his face.

But upon closer inspection, everyone at the Sun Moon Empire Soul Master Academy was covered by an invincible protective shield.

Lin Xi immediately went to the front and released a soul tool, which was also a shield. However, it looked to be only the size of an ordinary plate. A flash of light appeared on the metal shield, and a layer of yellow halo spread out, transforming into a light shield with a diameter of two meters. It not only protected him but also the others behind the Sun and Moon Team.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see why the Sun Moon Team did this. The reason is very simple. It is obviously to prepare for Xu Sanshi's Xuan Ming replacement.

They were all prepared, having learned from the previous battle between Shrek Academy and Yunluo Soul Master Academy.

"I rely on."

Ma Xiaotao spread her wings and said, "Ignore it for now, let's eliminate that Xia Die first."

Ma Xiaotao's fiery phoenix flew in mid-air, yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black.

At this moment, a beam of white light shot into the sky, forming a white crescent moon in the air. Then, it instantly transformed into countless beams of white light, pouring towards the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

This is Dai Yueheng's fourth soul skill, White Tiger Meteor Shower.
