Douluo Continent: I am the Ice Archer, my ice power is invincible.

Chapter 65 You Scoundrel, You're Asking for Trouble Again

On the way back to the barracks, Tang San and his group remained silent.

They all knew very well that if Shrek Academy had faced Tianshui Academy today, they might have lost the game just like Thunder Academy.

Xiao Han is really too difficult to deal with, not to mention he has teammates like Shui Bing'er who are also quite strong.

Dai Mubai whispered in Tang San's ear:

"Hey, have you ever thought about what would happen if we ran into Tianshui College?"

Tang San's face darkened.

Of course he had thought about that question.

"In one-on-one battles, Xiao Ao's flight assistance is useless. Apart from Fatty, none of us have the ability to fly. We're fine against other opponents, but we'll be particularly passive against Xiao Han and Shui Bing'er."

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm worried about. Both Xiao Han and Shui Bing'er's skills have freezing and restrictive effects. If they launch an attack from the air to the ground, it will be impossible to defend against, which is the most troublesome thing."

"That's right. Their advantage is even more obvious than that of the Soul Masters with the ability to fly at Shenfeng Academy."

Tang San and Dai Mubai both realized that if they encountered Tianshui Academy in the qualifying rounds, it would be difficult for them to win.

"Boss Dai, you don't need to worry too much. The finals are still about the teamwork of seven players. Rongrong and Xiao Ao's support skills will come in handy, so we won't be at a disadvantage against them."

"Yes, that's right."

The two regained their confidence.

Back at the barracks, Yu Xiaogang gathered the group together.

"The draw results are in. Your opponent tomorrow is none other than Thunder Academy, the team that lost today."

Hearing this result, Tang San and the others were quite excited.

Ma Hongjun said:

"Finally, we've met a team that's a bit challenging. Let's go all out tomorrow."

Dai Mubai and Tang San exchanged a smile, and Dai Mubai said confidently:

"Thunder Academy is in trouble; they're going to lose two games in a row."

Yu Xiaogang reminded him:

"Don't underestimate them, everyone. You all saw how the seven members of the Thunder Team performed today. They're actually quite strong, especially Captain Yu Tianxin and Vice Captain Lei Dong. It's just that they encountered a powerful opponent."

"Yes, Master."

Next, Yu Xiaogang arranged the order of appearance for tomorrow.

The qualifying rounds continued on the second day.

Today, Tianshui Academy's opponent is Shenfeng Academy.

Shenfeng Academy also had no defeats in the qualifying rounds and was regarded by everyone as a strong team that could rival Tianshui Academy.

However, to everyone's surprise, Kamikaze Academy withdrew directly.

They believed that even if they tried their best, they could not defeat Tianshui Academy, so there was no need to fight.

The match between Thunder Academy and Shrek Academy became another heavyweight showdown today, and was scheduled to be the final event.

To everyone's surprise, Shrek Academy defeated Thunder Academy with ease, and Tang San didn't even have to make an appearance.

In this match, Xiao Wu was injured while trying to defeat Lei Dong.

To avenge Xiao Wu, Tang San signaled Dai Mubai, who was next in the match, to use a vicious attack, severely injuring Lei Dong and potentially preventing him from participating in the finals.

This act of retaliation made everyone even more disgusted with those members of the Shrek team.

After the competition, a draw was held.

Lin Zhiruo returned to the barracks and brought the news to everyone.

"Tomorrow your opponent is Shrek Academy. They had a remarkable performance against Thunder Academy today, and their strongest player, Tang San, hasn't even played yet. What are your thoughts on tomorrow's match?"

Xiao Han stepped forward and said:

"Those Shrek academy students call themselves monsters. Although they have some strength, most of them are wicked, especially that little punk and the hypocritical Yu Xiaogang. You all saw it today; Lei Dong was severely injured by them. To avoid everyone being ambushed by them, let me go first."

Shuiyue smiled and teased:

"Junior brother, are you trying to sweep all seven opponents in one go again?"

"I do have this idea, but I'm afraid they'll concede defeat and withdraw from the competition prematurely."

Shui Bing'er said:

"It's clear that Shrek Academy is ambitious, and they're intentionally hiding their strength. I think they already consider Tianshui Academy as one of the most threatening opponents in the finals, and they probably won't forfeit tomorrow."

Xiao Han grinned.

"It's good that they didn't forfeit; let's teach them a lesson."

Lin Zhiruo took over the conversation.

"Xiao Han, you must not underestimate your opponents. Shrek Academy was able to easily defeat Thunder Academy today not only because of their own considerable strength, but also because of Yu Xiaogang's strategic deployment. I have observed them carefully, and the Soul Masters of the Shrek team are all at the Soul Grandmaster level, and their abilities are diverse, making them even more difficult to deal with than Thunder Academy."

"Mom, don't worry. Besides me, we also have Bing'er and our senior sisters. Victory will definitely be ours."

"I trust you, but I'm just reminding you not to be careless."

"Okay, I understand."

Subsequently, Lin Zhiruo arranged the lineup, with Xiao Han appearing first, followed by Shui Bing'er, Yu Hairou, and others.

the other side.

While Tang San and his friends were still basking in the joy of defeating Thunder Academy, Yu Xiaogang suddenly brought bad news.

"Kids, the draw results are in. Your opponents tomorrow are Tianshui Academy."

"Tianshui Academy?"

Upon hearing these four words, the expressions of the group immediately turned serious.

Yu Xiaogang continued:

"You've all seen the strength of Tianshui Academy; they were the best performing team in the one-on-one qualifying matches. Therefore, I suggest you forfeit tomorrow's match."

Tang San stepped forward.

"No! Teacher, we can't give up. Tianshui Academy is a potential opponent for us in the finals, and we've already withdrawn from the preliminaries. So, we haven't played against them yet. I think we should go into battle, get used to it beforehand, and learn from our experience."

Dai Mubai echoed:

"Master, I agree with Xiao San's point of view. Tianshui Academy may be one of the biggest obstacles on our road to the championship, just like Spirit Hall Academy. Although they have an advantage, this is only the qualifying round. We cannot bring out the full strength of the team. Even if we lose the game, we can accept it."

Ma Hongjun was also very dissatisfied.

"Yes, Master, we encountered Tianshui Academy twice, and we gave up before the match even started. That made us look too cowardly."

"Master, let us fight."

Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Tai Long also wanted to participate in the battle.

Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly.

"I understand your concerns. But I'll say it again: sometimes, giving up is a good strategy."

"Teacher, I know that by conceding defeat twice in a row, they will gain a psychological advantage and look down on us, making them pay the price for their arrogance. But we still want to fight."

Seeing that Tang San and his companions were so resolute, Yu Xiaogang said nothing more.

"Alright then, you'll be going to battle tomorrow. The order of appearance is: Tailong, Jingling, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiaowu, Mubai, and Xiaosan will be the last to appear."

"clear!"

They are about to face the biggest challenge since the start of the Soul Master Competition, and Tang San and his companions are all looking forward to it.
