Douluo's Soul Power increases by two levels every year

Chapter 149 Requesting Battle

Feeling annoyed by Huo Wu, Han Feng and Dai Mubai lost their appetite and went straight back to the academy.

When the two returned to the academy, Grandmaster was discussing tomorrow's competition with everyone. Han Feng and Dai Mubai, not finding Tang San and the others upon their return, understood and headed towards Grandmaster's office.

"Tomorrow you will face Blazing Fire Academy, which also boasts a fourteen-game winning streak. Blazing Fire Academy is very strong, so don't underestimate them!" Before Han Feng and Dai Mubai even entered the office, they could already hear the master's serious and rigid voice coming from inside the door.

Masters are always like this, afraid that everyone will become arrogant. No matter which academy they are facing, they will carefully analyze the strengths and weaknesses of that academy, summarize one point, and remind everyone not to be careless. Then, based on the strengths and weaknesses of that academy, they will make appropriate personnel adjustments in order to achieve the best results.

It can only be said that he is a master; every aspect is meticulously calculated!

"Based on Blazing Academy's previous performance, they have now exposed three Soul Masters: Captain Huo Wushuang, and team members Huo Wu and Huo Linfei!"

"Huo Wushuang is an offensive Soul Master, Huo Wu is a control Soul Master, and Huo Linfei is an agile Soul Master. In addition, all the students of Blazing Fire Academy have martial souls related to fire, so even support Soul Masters have a certain offensive capability. Offense is Blazing Fire Academy's strongest weapon! So I plan to let Xiao San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Qing go on stage while hiding Mu Bai and the others! Ma Hongjun, are you okay?"

As expected, after analyzing Blazing Academy, the master decided on the personnel to be sent into battle.

Upon hearing the master's words, Ma Hongjun readily replied, "It's alright!"

Ma Hongjun was fine, of course. Although he had the Phoenix Martial Soul, it was still a fire attack. Using fire against fire, the effect was naturally not as significant as that of Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

Upon hearing this, Han Feng and Dai Mubai, who were outside the door, gently knocked on the master's office door and entered.

The arrival of the two surprised everyone.

Han Feng looked around and, seeing that Ning Rongrong wasn't among them, breathed a sigh of relief—he was now unsure how to face her.

That's so embarrassing!

Dai Mubai noticed Han Feng's subtle movements, smiled slightly, and said nothing. He simply clasped his hands in a fist salute to the Grandmaster and said, "Grandmaster! In tomorrow's match, let Fengzi and me play!"

"Boss Dai?" Ma Hongjun was stunned upon hearing this and looked at Dai Mubai in confusion.

Dai Mubai and Han Feng haven't participated in any competitions for over ten days. Dai Mubai is doing alright, as he still comes to watch Shrek Academy's matches. Han Feng, on the other hand, is nowhere to be found every day. He's either cultivating or shopping, living a very carefree life!

Admittedly, Ma Hongjun was quite envious of them. He found these ordinary matches boring after a while, and it was much easier to just coast along!

Tang San breathed a sigh of relief.

Tang San was thinking more deeply than Ma Hongjun. In the past few days, Tang San had also begun to feel that Grandmaster's approach was flawed. Han Feng and Dai Mubai had increasingly lost their sense of urgency for the competition, which was clearly not Grandmaster's original intention.

Now that Dai Mubai and Han Feng have volunteered for the battle, Tang San hopes that Grandmaster will agree.

"Can!"

Tang San was originally planning to speak up for the two of them, but before he could even open his mouth, Master nodded in agreement!

The problem that Tang San could see, Grandmaster could also see. In fact, Flander and the others also knew that they couldn't keep suppressing Han Feng and Dai Mubai, and they also wanted to let the two of them take the stage occasionally.

But I was worried that they might harbor resentment. Ning Rongrong and Oscar were support-type Soul Masters, which was fine since they weren't particularly enthusiastic about fighting. But they were two powerful Soul Masters with strong blood and exceptional talent. After participating in the competition, they had only been on the field once, so it was understandable that they might have some thoughts.

Now that Dai Mubai and Han Feng have brought it up themselves, it's exactly what they wanted. How could the master refuse?

Actually, the masters are overthinking it...

Han Feng and Dai Mubai had no resentment at all. After watching a few matches, they understood that there were no worthwhile matches to play in the early stages of the qualifiers. Going on the field was just a waste of time, and it was better to focus on training!

Upon hearing that the master had agreed, Han Feng and Dai Mubai were both overjoyed: "Thank you, Master!"

"It's alright!" The master gave a stiff smile, raised his hand, and continued, "But since both of you have gone on stage, the third one naturally doesn't need to. How about this: let Ma Hongjun and you go on stage!"

The master had full confidence in Han Feng and Dai Mubai's strength, and this confidence came from Liu Erlong. According to Liu Erlong, Han Feng and Dai Mubai, when they went all out, were not even weaker than high-level Soul Kings. With two high-level Soul Kings on the field, what tactics were needed? Just bring five accessories!

Thinking of this, the master looked at Tang San and the others and asked, "Do you have any objections?"

The four members of Tailong shook their heads first. Not only did they have no objection, but they were also very fortunate. After all, with two big shots, Han Feng and Dai Mubai, on the field, they could avoid being knocked out of the field by unknown splash damage!

Xiao Wu wanted to object, but Tang San pulled her back, so she could only glare at Han Feng and Dai Mubai resentfully.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Dai Mubai, and seeing the smile in his eyes, her pretty face flushed. Naturally, she had no objection.

Only Ma Hongjun spoke up in a simple-minded manner: "I only have one request. Could you please wait until my martial spirit has been activated before ending the match?"

Ma Hongjun's words elicited strange expressions from everyone.

Blazing Fire Academy is not the vice-captain of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. It would definitely be difficult to kill Blazing Fire Academy in an instant. But for some reason, everyone felt that Han Feng and Dai Mubai's indifferent expressions meant that this was exactly what they were planning!

"Ahem!" The master coughed and said in a strange tone, "Since no one has any objections, then tomorrow's match will feature Han Feng, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and four substitutes!"

After the lineup for tomorrow's match was decided, everyone dispersed. Ma Hongjun sidled up to Dai Mubai and whispered, "Boss Dai, why did you guys suddenly decide to go on stage this time? Did you guys make some weird bet again? What's it for this time? Dancing or streaking!?"

Upon hearing the word "gambling game," Dai Mubai rolled his eyes!

Dai Mubai rarely won his bets with Han Feng, and each time he lost extremely frustratingly. Whenever he thought about it, Dai Mubai felt extremely regretful!

"No!" Dai Mubai glared at Ma Hongjun, annoyed, and mumbled, "I just accidentally stepped in dog poop on my way back today, which ruined my appetite, so I went to Blazing Fire Academy to vent my anger!"

"There's dog poop in Tiandou City?" Ma Hongjun, clearly unaware of Dai Mubai's implied meaning, asked in surprise.

"Yes! Not just any! There are three more! And you'll see them tomorrow!" Dai Mubai sneered, stating with certainty.

This time, even if Ma Hongjun was slow-witted, he understood Dai Mubai's meaning. He immediately laughed and said, "Take it out on Blazing Fire Academy! Hehe..."

Dai Mubai chuckled and looked at Han Feng, only to find that Han Feng had already walked up to Zhu Zhuqing's side at some point.

Han Feng scratched his head, grinned sheepishly, and asked Zhu Zhuqing, "Zhuqing, have you seen Rongrong?"

Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly, glanced at Han Feng with surprise, and then shook her head: "No! Didn't you take Rongrong out?"

"Uh..." Han Feng was speechless for a moment, then said, "Alright then! If you see Rongrong, please tell her to forget everything that happened today!"

"Oh...oh!" Even with Zhu Zhuqing's calm demeanor, she couldn't understand what had possessed Han Feng. She simply nodded in agreement.

After Han Feng left, Zhu Zhuqing approached Dai Mubai and questioned him, "What have you done now?"

Dai Mubai quickly raised his hands, grinning, "I swear! I really was helping Rongrong this time! There was just a... little accident along the way! But overall, it's definitely what Rongrong wanted to see!"

Zhu Zhuqing extended her delicate fingers and lifted Dai Mubai's chin, giving him a deep look. Her ears flushed slightly, and she let out a soft snort: "Hmph! Fine! I'll believe you for now!"

Meanwhile, while Shrek Academy was assigning participants for tomorrow's competition, Blazing Fire Academy was also making preparations for tomorrow's match.

After meeting Han Feng, Huo Wushuang felt somewhat resentful: "Sister, if Han Feng and Dai Mubai really do play tomorrow, what will happen to us..."

Huo Wu snorted coldly: "If they really take to the field, it suits me just fine! My Huo Wu Radiant Sun isn't suitable for use in Heaven Dou City, otherwise, why would I have let them go then!?"

Seeing his younger sister's impulsive behavior, Huo Wushuang gave a wry smile.

I should have known better than to spoil her like that before!

"If Tang San were to fight, we'd have the advantage of our martial souls, and we'd be invincible!" Huo Wu saw the wry smile on Huo Wushuang's face and knew that Huo Wushuang was blaming her for being willful again, so she said, "But if Han Feng and Dai Mubai were to fight, I'd immediately unleash Fire Dance Radiant Sun! You protect me, and I refuse to believe that Fire Dance Radiant Sun, charged to its limit, can't defeat them!"

Hearing Huo Wu say this, Huo Wushuang had no choice but to nod: "Then let's do as you say!"
