The top eight have been determined. One contestant, however, is too injured to participate in the next round, and his opponent was originally supposed to be Long Yue. This means Long Yue will receive a bye in the next round and directly advance to the semifinals.

However, no one believed that Long Yue had gained any advantage. In fact, the reason why the two previous contestants fought so fiercely was clearly because they knew that their next opponent was Long Yue, whom they had no chance of defeating. They figured they might as well go all out and try to secure a place in the top eight.

The news and publications were filled with reports about it.

Of course, many more headlines are things like "Shrek, go back!"

However, there is no doubt that this indirectly acknowledges the strength of the Shrek Academy students.

Vice Dean Tang Bingyao congratulated Elder Cai and stated that the Federation would provide special rewards to those who performed exceptionally well in this competition. Of course, all of this would have to wait until they returned to Douluo Continent.

The next match will be the quarterfinals!

Koyu's opponent is Yuan En Yehui.

But she calmly withdrew from the competition...

Long Yue and Lin San also advanced to the semifinals.

In the semi-finals, Lin San didn't give up like Yuan En Ye Hui, but instead chose to challenge Long Yue. The result was predictable; he lost, even though he displayed even greater strength than when he fought Xie Xie, and the amplification from his One-Word Battle Armor caused Long Yue some trouble. Ultimately, however, he still lost. Throughout the entire match, Long Yue never used his Battle Armor.

In the semifinals as well, Gu You also easily ended the match.

The final matchups have been determined.

This match was officially hailed as the "Battle of the Two Dragon Kings".

After a day of rest, it will be held on the morning of the second day.

This match is also hailed as the most important contest of this tournament. In many betting markets, the odds are evenly matched between the two players.

In the hotel,

"Dragon King versus Dragon King, that's really interesting," Gu Yue joked to Gu You.

"No! It's not Dragon King versus Dragon King." Gu You shook his head.

"What is that?" Gu Yue asked curiously.

"Dragon God versus Dragon King..."

Yuan Enhui cultivated silently in her room. She had always been diligent, and even her exceptional talent had never hindered her efforts. Only she knew that her cultivation speed was actually not fast. Although her two top-tier martial souls were powerful, they were not subordinate to each other and even repelled each other. She had to perfectly harmonize their relationship in order to allow her cultivation to continue to improve.

She has always worked very hard because she needs to become strong. Only with sufficient strength can she accomplish that thing, that thing that haunts her dreams.

Xu Xiaoyan was asleep, lying on the edge of the bed. Le Zhengyu, however, was awake. He turned to his side, looking at Xu Xiaoyan lying on the edge of the bed with tenderness in his eyes.

Since the day he was injured, she had been taking care of him. The two of them didn't say much to each other, and everything seemed very natural and casual. But it was this naturalness and casualness that made Yue Zhengyu feel very warm.

He was born into a strictly hierarchical family where the purity of bloodlines and even which branch of the family one belonged to were strictly stratified. He was fortunate; he was the future heir of the main branch, the young master of the family. From childhood, he grew up amidst countless acts of care and envy, and of course, even more so, jealousy. But he never cared. He always felt, "I am who I am; I am the representative of the Holy Angel Family."

It wasn't until he arrived at Shrek Academy that he began to understand that he wasn't the strongest among his peers. While the Holy Angel Martial Soul was powerful, he hadn't yet reached its full potential. He still had a long way to go to become a true powerhouse.

When he was in the family, he was always surrounded by admirers. When he was only ten years old, the family even found some girls of similar social standing to play with him, so that he could find the one he liked the most.

But at that time, he was at his most rebellious, and the more opportunities were presented to him, the less he liked them. He especially disliked girls who deliberately acted in order to get close to him. Some pretended to be aloof, some pretended to be gentle, and some were gentle and refined. In his eyes, it was all just acting.

Therefore, he proposed to study at Shrek Academy in order to break free from the constraints of his family. He wanted to see the outside world and what kind of beautiful fireworks there were.

He changed the fireworks, and luckily, he encountered...

Gu Yue lay flat on the bed, not asleep, but just staring quietly at the ceiling. She didn't want to cultivate, and she didn't even know why.

She was feeling a little anxious; tomorrow was the final, and he would be facing Long Yue.

"Sigh—" Gu Yue sighed softly. Perhaps this was fate. Where did his bloodline come from? It seemed that there was a will of heaven in the dark.

So what if it's fate! A glint of silver light flashed in Gu Yue's eyes. Even if fate prevents us from moving forward, I will destroy that fate.

She sat up abruptly. Suddenly, the conversation between the two of them that day echoed in her mind.

……

early morning.

Outside the hotel, a Soul Guide car was already waiting. Today was the final of the individual competition, and to avoid unnecessary trouble and to allow Gu You to arrive at the venue as soon as possible, the organizers had specially sent a car to pick him up.

This match is hailed as the ultimate showdown between Monster Academy and Shrek Academy. Therefore, all the contestants from both academies are allowed to enter the waiting area to watch the competition.

Eight people boarded the vehicle, and the Soul Guided Car started moving, heading straight for the Star Luo Grand Stadium, surrounded by escort vehicles in front and behind.

Today, not only was the Xingluo Stadium packed with people, but the area outside the stadium was also completely jammed. Every good spot with a view of the large screen outside the stadium was occupied. Many people arrived a day in advance to secure such a location. There were even tents.

The people of the Star Luo Empire were absolutely going all out to watch this match up close.

Everyone wanted to be among the first to witness this epic battle.

Inside the stadium, it was already packed with people. On the dais, Emperor Dai Tianling of the Empire, Dean Enci of Monster Academy, Tang Bingyao, head of the Douluo Continent delegation, and Cai Yue'er, Dean of the Shrek Academy's outer court, were all seated there early in the morning.

Cai Yue'er was originally unwilling to come to the podium, but she couldn't resist the warm invitation from the Star Luo Empire.

Undoubtedly, this was driven by political motives, and Mr. Cai ultimately chose to come.

The weather is lovely today… (End of Chapter)
