In Douluo Continent, I am the mastermind behind the scenes.

Chapter 85. Shrek Team vs. Spirit Hall Team!

Tang Ya spent most of her time managing the Tang Clan's businesses, with very little time for cultivation, let alone practicing soul skills or even engaging in combat training.

Tang Ya is clearly "high-scoring but low-ability". The inheritance of the Grasp of Nature greatly enhances her affinity with plants and her control over the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul. With this ability, it would not be difficult for her to condense a Blue Silver Puppet and have it perform a pole dance in front of everyone.

However, her weakness lies in her lack of practical combat experience. She lacks mastery of various control skills, has poor distance control, and extremely poor mental resilience. She can only bully younger players, not high-level matches.

Having no other choice, Huo Yuhao devised this plan. Since they were suicide squad members, they should serve the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy to the death. Even though the cultivation levels of the three Soul Kings had been forcibly increased, surely they could buy some time?

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Huo Yuhao used the charge effect of the first soul skill of the Twin Dragon Daggers, Blood Demon Shadow, to get behind Ye Xian, and thrust the dagger in his hand straight at her left shoulder.

Click...

With a cracking sound, Huo Yuhao struck his target and immediately withdrew his dagger, preparing to stab Ye Xian in the other shoulder to completely incapacitate her.

However... thanks to the effects of the Undying Begonia Heart, Ye Xian's left shoulder injury healed completely in just a few breaths. She immediately turned around, grabbed Huo Yuhao's sleeve, and punched him in the face with a fist the size of a sandbag.

Huo Yuhao felt as if his skull was about to break; the other person's strength was even greater than when Ma Xiaotao had beaten him.

My lord, times have changed.

Throughout the entire Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, apart from Ye Xian's teachers, it was difficult for anyone else to gain the upper hand in terms of martial arts.

Due to the characteristics of the Undying Begonia Heart Martial Soul, after repeated limb regenerations, it has long since forgotten what pain feels like.

Seeing that he couldn't gain any advantage, Huo Yuhao, with a headache, had no choice but to resort to homosexuality to survive, using his Ghost Shadow Step to run towards Chen Yu.

He ran, she chased, and he couldn't escape!

Perhaps overconfident in her close combat abilities, Ye Xian had long forgotten Ju Zi's warning and chased after Huo Yuhao without any hesitation.

Just then, Huo Yuhao suddenly turned around. Having completed his spirit transformation, the first blue-gold spirit ring beneath his feet slowly lit up.

"First Soul Skill: Soul Impact!"

A massive surge of spiritual energy struck Ye Xian's mind, and the next moment, Ye Xian's eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Huo Yuhao kicked Ye Xian off the Soul Fighting Platform.

"Is this... the aura of intellectual degradation?"

Seeing this, Qin Yi shook his head. How could such a steady girl suddenly give in at a time like this? If Huo Yuhao is going to run, then let him run. Couldn't you have taken this opportunity to ambush Chen Yu, Xu Sanshi, and Bei Bei? If all else fails, you could have helped your teammates eliminate the three assassins first. Why did you have to choose the wrong answer when there were so many correct answers available?

Let's shift our focus back to the competition field.

With the full cooperation of the three assassins, Huo Yuhao eliminated Hu Huan (Flame Lord), Hu Xi (Moon Blade), and Yang Xing (Soul-Breaking Spear) in succession. The three assassins completed their mission and went offstage to rest.

At this point, only Qian Xunhuan, Qian Chongxin, and Leng Chen (Golden Crocodile King) remained in the Spirit Hall team, and the scales of victory began to tip in favor of the Shrek team.

Huo Yuhao was in high spirits. The chaos and rampant spread of power and inheritances meant nothing to affect his status as the chosen one of this era. After this battle, as the MVP of the competition, he would lead the Tang Sect to once again reach the pinnacle of the Douluo Continent.

But... will reality really turn out as Huo Yuhao wishes? Will the Spirit Hall team, possessing two divine-level martial souls, only become a backdrop for Shrek Academy once again?

Obviously not!

Throughout the entire process, Qian Xunhuan, Qian Chongxin, and Leng Chen only used the power of their martial souls. On the other hand, the Shrek Academy team used the Black Rhino Armor, the Dragon Slayer Blade, and Life Return respectively, exerting all their strength to barely hold off the three formidable opponents.

At this moment, Qian Chongxin no longer held back. She raised her slender arm, and the light and dark sides of the light and dark domains began to merge. In an instant, Xu Sanshi, Bei Bei, and Chen Yu felt a burning sensation in their throats, and pools of blood gushed from their mouths as they collapsed into pools of blood.

Although everyone hates Shrek Academy and Tang Sect, at this moment, most people hope that the Shrek team can win this game.

But... sigh! From the very beginning, the Spirit Hall team had the ability to overturn the table. They possess a god-level spirit, most likely an inheritance, and are also Soul Kings. How could they possibly fight a group of Soul Masters to a standstill?

What is more hopeless than despair is hope.

The Spirit Hall team wanted to give Huo Yuhao plenty of hope, only to crush that hope themselves.

"Ten thousand years ago, on the Soul Master Competition field, the Shrek Academy team used the Seven-in-One Fusion Technique to defeat the Spirit Hall team, who were of a higher level."

"Ten thousand years from now, my Spirit Hall team refuses to be a backdrop for your Shrek Academy team's battle against an opponent of a higher level!"

Holding two long swords, Qian Chongxin approached Huo Yuhao step by step. In her state of intertwined light and darkness, her martial soul was not the Angel of Light and Darkness, but... the Gray-Winged Angel, which lies between light and darkness.

As Qian Chongxin drew closer, Huo Yuhao's gaze deepened. Impressive! Absolutely amazing! If she were allowed to continue cultivating, she would definitely become a formidable enemy of the Tang Sect, even stronger than Kong Deming, the Silver Moon Douluo of his previous life.

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao no longer held back and directly mobilized the wisp of divine sense brought by his rebirth, striking directly at Qian Chongxin's head.

The next moment, Huo Yuhao and Qian Chongxin fell backward at the same time.

Qian Xunhuan rushed forward to check on Qian Chongxin's injuries, only to find that... her little aunt had lost vital signs.

Chizuru Kaoru... is dead!

Without hesitation, Qian Xunhuan summoned the Rakshasa Demon Scythe and strode toward Huo Yuhao. She had only taken two steps when she was stopped by the referee.

"Quarterfinals, Junior Group Match 1: Spirit Hall Team wins!"

Upon hearing the referee's announcement, Qian Xunhuan neither cried nor made a fuss. Together with Leng Chen, she carried Qian Chongxin's body off the Soul Fighting Platform.

War... how can there be no deaths?

Even without Qian Chongxin, there is still Qian Xunhuan. Even without Qian Xunhuan, there is still Qian Suli. Even without Qian Suli, there is still Ye... Qian Guyi. The spirit of the Spirit Hall will live on forever, and the Angel Family will never be enslaved!
