Chapter 376 The King of Flowers Reigns Supreme Among All Beauties (Part 2)

Finally, it was Shrek Academy's turn to appear. "Come on!" Dai Mubai was the first to extend his right hand, followed by Tang San, Xiao Wu, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing... The eleven of them put their hands together and shouted, "Go for it!"

Encouraged by the confident gazes of the crowd, Xiao Wu slowly walked into the competition venue.

Shrek Academy's opponent in the first round came from the Kingdom of Barak, a royal academy, much like the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's status within the Heaven Dou Empire. Their name, like that of their kingdom, was Barak Academy.

The first person to appear from Barak Academy was a tall young man, who looked to be in his early twenties, wearing a black school uniform with gold trim. When he saw Xiao Wu, he couldn't help but pause in surprise.

There were two reasons that stunned him: one was Xiao Wu's appearance, and the other was naturally the bizarre school uniform of Shrek Academy.

The Shrek Academy uniforms are no longer just marked with "GG" marks; they can be found on almost every corner of the uniforms. In Heaven Dou City, Shrek Academy is extremely famous.

However, the Barak Academy from the Kingdom of Barak naturally couldn't possibly know these things.

Upon seeing Xiao Wu's dingy green school uniform covered in various logos, the tall young man burst out laughing. If Xiao Wu weren't a pretty girl, he would definitely have made some sarcastic remarks.

"Little sister, how old are you? Shrek Academy must be short of people, sending you up here to fill in? I'm a bit rough; I might hurt you. I think you should go down. Find someone stronger. This isn't a place for you," the tall young man said earnestly.

Although Xiao Wu's figure is already similar to that of an adult woman, some important parts are still budding. Moreover, the childishness on her face is clearly not something someone over twenty should possess. In team battles, with many people mixed together, no one would notice these things, but in this one-on-one match, the appearances of both sides naturally stand out.

Xiao Wu frowned. The tall young man's voice was loud enough for most of the students from the various academies outside the competition venue to hear.

Oscar looked at Ma Hongjun beside him with some confusion and said, "Fatty, why are you covering your eyes?"

Ma Hongjun sincerely said, "Because I couldn't bear to watch anymore. If they underestimate Xiao Wu like this, the brothers from Barak Academy are probably going to be in trouble. Have you forgotten Xiao Wu's terrifying series of throws back then? I think it was called something like the Eight-Stage Throw. Oh, right, you weren't there that time. It's a pity you didn't see what happened. I really couldn't bear to watch."

While Ma Hongjun and Oscar were talking, the match had already started with the referee's announcement.

Xiao Wu didn't make the first move. Instead, she winked at the tall young man opposite her. "Big brother, I think you're right. This really isn't a place I should be."

Although she said that, her body had already begun to change. Her martial spirit was quietly released, with three spirit rings, two yellow and one purple, swirling up.

The tall young man from Barak Academy should have noticed Xiao Wu's spirit rings and become wary, but as Ma Hongjun said, he seriously underestimated her. Moreover, he was extremely confident in his own strength. Within the entire Barak Academy team, he was not only the captain but also the strongest, with spirit power exceeding level forty. Unfortunately for him, he encountered Xiao Wu.

The moment Xiao Wu released her martial soul, her soul skill was also released simultaneously: her second soul ring skill, Charm, was activated.

A yellow halo flashed, and Xiao Wu's eyes simultaneously turned an alluring pink. The tall young man was momentarily stunned, becoming somewhat dazed. Just then, Xiao Wu moved.

According to the competition rules, the two sides started the official competition at a distance of 20 meters. Xiao Wu's long legs bounced up powerfully, and almost in an instant, she closed the distance between the two to 10 meters.

The tall young man's soul power was superior to Xiao Wu's, and his dazed state didn't last long. He subconsciously realized something was wrong and, while his vision was still blurry, he quickly activated his martial soul and slapped his face hard with both hands to clear his mind.

His reaction was indeed quick; by the time Xiao Wu was about five meters away from him, he had fully regained his senses. How could he not be astonished by the three enlarged spirit rings before him and the incredible speed of Xiao Wu's body?

Almost instinctively, he raised his hands and unleashed his first soul skill at Xiao Wu in front of him.

However, just as the other's soul skill was activated, he was stunned again, because the opponent who was originally in front of him had disappeared.

Xiao Wu appeared behind the tall young man with her back to him. As she swung her scorpion braid, the tall young man, still in surprise, felt a tightness around his neck.

Xiao Wu didn't even turn around. As her braids wrapped around her opponent's neck, she braced herself with her left foot on the ground and lifted her right foot back, directly striking the tall young man's waist. First Soul Skill, Waist Bow, activated.

Pulling her braid back and thrusting her waist, the sudden burst of power suffocated the tall young man. The next moment, Xiao Wu flung him into the air.

From the very beginning of the match until now, it has only been a few moments: the charm skill was activated, Xiao Wu dashed forward, the teleportation skill was activated, the soft technique was applied to the body, and the opponent was thrown off balance. The whole process was as smooth as flowing water, without the slightest delay.

That is precisely why she did not give her opponent any chance to fight back.

From behind to in front and slightly above, Xiao Wu's braids had already quietly detached as she flung them away from her opponent. At this moment, she leaped high into the air to face her opponent's out-of-control body.

By this point, the outcome of the battle was no longer in doubt.

Soul Masters' Soul Skills all require a short period of charging. Once a person loses their balance and their body is locked by the opponent's Soul Power, it becomes impossible to use Soul Skills.

Whether it's Xiao Wu's charm skill or the soul power she outputs after her scorpion braid wraps around her opponent's neck, both produce this effect.

"Goodbye." Xiao Wu grabbed the tall young man by the back of his collar with one hand, raised her left knee, and slammed it heavily into his waist with powerful soul force. At the same time, she activated her waist bow skill, twisted her body, and performed a simple throw, slamming the tall young man heavily to the ground.

boom--

The tall figure crashed heavily to the ground, and many people had already closed their eyes. Xiao Wu descended from the sky, her feet landing directly between the tall young man's chest and abdomen.

Under the immense force of the impact, the tall young man, who was already disoriented from the fall, suddenly contracted his body, and the intense pain caused him to scream out in agony.

With a swift movement, Xiao Wu's toe struck her opponent's chin. Simultaneously, she spun around, executing a graceful rotation while stepping on his chest, and lightly tapped his temple with her other foot. The tall young man was plunged into darkness, completely unconscious.

The Third Ring Road versus the Fourth Ring Road: a complete victory.

After a brief moment of stillness, the air suddenly became scorching hot, filled with gasps and exclamations of surprise. Not only were the visiting Soul Master academies speechless, but even the members of the Four Elements Academy, who had previously fought against Shrek Academy, were utterly astonished.

From the start to the end of the competition, it was actually only a very short time.

Xiao Wu, relying on her own strength, gave her opponent no chance to fight back. A Soul Master of level 40 was perfectly defeated by her after only unleashing his first Soul Skill. From beginning to end, Xiao Wu was the one in control of the battle.

At this moment, his unconscious body was still twitching on the ground.

Due to the severe injuries to his chest and abdomen from being trampled, even while unconscious, something continued to gush from his mouth, accompanied by blood and filth. Although it wasn't considered a serious injury, it would be very difficult for him to participate in tomorrow's competition.

Xiao Wu gave a harmless smile, glanced at the other members of the Barak Academy team, and said softly, "Next."

Those three simple words were like igniting a powder keg. Immediately, seven or eight people from Barak Academy rushed up and charged towards Xiao Wu menacingly.

"What are you doing?" The referee appeared in time, but he only used words to stop the opponents.

"Want a group battle?" The other six members of the Shrek Seven Devils stepped onto the arena almost immediately. Xiao Wu didn't retreat an inch, simply watching the opponent approach quietly.

Actually, she didn't want to inflict such a severe blow on her opponent. However, when she discovered that her opponent's strength exceeded level forty, she had no choice but to go all out. Furthermore, once her waist bow was activated, the power was not entirely under her control. To completely incapacitate her opponent, she had no other option. After all, she was a melee Soul Master, not someone who could simply unleash Soul Skills.

"Looking for death?" Before the two teams could even get close, a clear, cold voice resounded throughout the arena. Her voice didn't sound particularly loud, but it was heard by tens of thousands of people in the stadium.

Neither team member could see clearly when another person appeared in the center of the field, but as soon as she appeared, an overwhelming aura swept towards the Barak Academy side like a tidal wave.
