In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 222 You Love Me, I Love You, Sweet Honey of Mixue Ice City

"Looks like Bai Ran isn't doing so well."

Inside the White Tiger Duke's mansion, he listened to the news reported by his subordinates.

Dai Huabin managed a weak smile.

revenge?

It seems extremely difficult now.

Being able to annoy the other party is the limit of what Dai Huabin can do right now.

As for taking further action against Bai Ran?

It will probably require some careful planning.

Dai Huabin: Even if all the experts in the manor were to come out, there wouldn't be much confidence in succeeding.

……

Before we knew it, the second day of the round-robin tournament had arrived.

The first match will be between Shrek Academy and Yunluo Advanced Soul Master Academy of the Star Luo Empire.

Although Shrek Academy did not show particularly strong dominance in the elimination rounds a few days ago, and even fought back and forth with a lower-level academy like Tianling Academy.

However, as a former powerhouse, Shrek Academy remains very popular.

Even though this was supposed to be the home ground of Yunluo's advanced soul masters, most of the audience members were still shouting the name "Shrek".

Perhaps only the Star Luo National Team, led by Princess Jiu Jiu, can suppress Shrek Academy in terms of popularity.

There is a 15-minute commercial break before the match.

Most of them are well-known brands in the Star Luo Empire, or famous brands that span the entire continent.

However, to everyone's surprise, today's advertising time is a little different.

Unlike the dull advertising slogans of the past few days.

Before today's round-robin matches began, a song was played in the stadium.

Then several mascots dressed as snowmen came on stage and danced.

"You love me, I love you, Mixue Ice Cream is so sweet..."

The lyrics are simple, but the melody is quite catchy.

For a moment, many spectators in Xingluo Square began to hum along.

On the imperial city wall, Xu Jiawei looked at Xu Jiujiu with a dark expression: "What have you done?"

Xu Jiujiu: "Hehe~"

I never imagined that the melody of this song would be so captivating.

That's clearly not how it came from that novice boss.

"My dear sister, how much of a kickback did you take from them?"

Seeing the situation on the field, Xu Jiawei couldn't help but frown.

Which incredibly powerful capitalist is it that's resorting to such underhanded tactics in the Soul Fighting Tournament?

"A kickback? Does such a thing exist?"

Xu Jiujiu scratched his head.

She said that if she had to count, it would be at most two glasses of lemonade and two servings of ice cream, and she even paid for them.

……

Outside Xingluo Square, Hajibai still hadn't managed to snag a ticket.

Bai Ran: I just don't understand, are these tickets really that hard to buy? It's like I can only watch the game from the sidelines every time.

Listening to the songs in the square, and the snowmen dancing on the field.

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, Mixue Ice Cream should become a hit in Xingluo City.

Speaking of which, I wonder if there will be some bandwagoners.

It doesn't matter, it's just the price of a cup of tea for a few copper soul coins anyway.

Even if other vendors really followed suit.

They probably won't even need Bai Ran to suppress them; they'll just starve to death on their own.

Bai Ran: Can Xiao Shenzi manage all this by herself? Should we find her another helper?
Well, let's just take it one step at a time. After all, even if the holiday job costs less, it still costs 1000 gold coins a month.

These all represent costs.

The preparation area at the back.

I saw the advertisement playing on stage, especially the familiar Mixue Ice Cream.

Wang Yan, representing the Shrek Academy team, couldn't help but glance at Huo Yuhao again and said, "Yuhao, you bought your lemonade at that Mixue Ice Cream shop yesterday, right?"

"Yes, Teacher Wang Yan."

Huo Yuhao was momentarily stunned as he looked at the advertisement on the stage.

To be honest, His Highness Jiu Jiu's efficiency is too fast. He just mentioned it yesterday, and today he's already taking action.

The aspect of benevolence and righteousness.

All I can say is that she's quite a figure, after all.

"Huh? That shop is actually not far from Xingluo Square."

I'll have someone go buy a few glasses of lemonade.

"By the way, Yuhao, I haven't asked you yet how much a cup of lemonade costs at that shop."

Wang Yan has tasted many good things, so he enjoyed a cup of tea with fresh lemon that tasted good, just like yesterday.

It might cost one or two gold soul coins per cup.

Moreover, during the Soul Fighting Tournament, prices in Star Luo City were ridiculously high.

It might cost three or four gold soul coins per cup, who knows?

"Four bronze soul coins."

"Four bronze soul coins?"

Wang Yan, who had just taken out a bag of gold soul coins and was about to have his servant run an errand, quickly took the bag back.

Not only did Wang Yan not believe it, but even the customers who went to Mixue Ice Cream after hearing the advertisement and were ready to try it out also did not believe it.

Ah, a cup of tea that costs four copper soul coins, I'm afraid it won't even cover the advertising costs.

"Uh... let's put the lemonade thing aside for now and continue explaining the round-robin tournament rules to you."

Unlike the previous single seven-on-seven team battles, the round-robin tournament selects one of three random modes by drawing lots.

Each event is a single-elimination tournament, represented by yellow balls.

The second and third team matches are represented by blue balls.

Finally, there's the seven-on-seven team battle, represented by red balls.

Compared to the seven-on-seven team leader, Wang Yan would prefer that these children be able to draw the second, second, or third team battles.

Because of the age of the substitute players, their average soul power level is much lower than that of the regular players, so they have no advantage at all in the singles elimination rounds.

Secondly, the substitute players have just formed a team, and the team members are clearly not yet well-integrated.

This was demonstrated in the previous knockout round.

The teamwork shown by Huo Yuhao and his seven teammates is currently not comparable to that of the official team members from other academies.

As for the two-team battles, they mainly refer to two 2v2 matches and one 3v3 match, with a best-of-three format.

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong's Martial Soul Fusion Skill will almost certainly secure a point for the academy.

The remaining two, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, were not inner court disciples, but they were the two most talented in the outer court.

Furthermore, the two often spar, and their teamwork is quite good, so taking the other point shouldn't be a big problem.

Unfortunately, things did not go as Wang Yan had imagined.

When the commercial break ended, both players entered the field, and under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the referee drew the yellow ball.

This was the last personal battle Wang Yan wanted to encounter.

If Huo Yuhao's "lie" of having six 100,000-year soul rings had not been exposed.

In this match, the audience might even get a chance to witness a long-awaited seven-game winning streak.

But now, Shrek Academy, which only fields substitute players, is happy as long as they can win.

Even if we lose, at least we shouldn't lose in a bad way.

Huo Yuhao: I will dedicate this championship to Wang Dong.
