Chapter 394 A Miraculous Treasure Reaching the Heavens, Tiger Breaks the Dragon (Part 2)

Outside the venue, Zhu Zhuqing was completely mesmerized, her gaze fixed on Dai Mubai. When she saw the wildness in those wicked eyes, she could hardly contain her excitement.

Unlike Xiao Wu, who would rush to Tang San's aid immediately if he were injured, Zhu Zhuqing would not. Although she remained indifferent to Dai Mubai, in her heart, the owner of those evil eyes was destined to be her man from the year she was born.

Seeing her man display his prowess on the battlefield, she would never try to stop him. If she could, she would fight alongside him. If she could only be a spectator, she would remain a spectator. She wouldn't worry about Dai Mubai's victory or defeat. If he won, she would heal his wounds; if he died, she would go with him. Her man was a strong man, and when Zhu Zhuqing truly understood Dai Mubai's character, she had already decided that she would never let her tears influence him.

The golden light turned white again, and orbs of light began to emanate around Dai Mubai's body.

The blue-purple light receded and transformed back into blue. The bolts of lightning coalesced, transforming into a small blue dragon about one meter long.

The fourth soul skill of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger is the White Tiger Meteor Shower.

Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus's fourth soul skill, Blue Dot Divine Dragon Swift.

This is the final clash that will determine the winner; there are no fancy moves, only a contest of all strength.

In the VIP section, Emperor Xueye had already stood up, his expression solemn. With the emperor rising, how could anyone else remain seated? All the teachers and students of the academy were now standing to watch the final result of the match. Regardless of victory or defeat, the imposing presence of these two figures would be etched deep into their hearts.

The third soul skill is about to collapse, and the key to victory lies in launching the fourth soul skill based on it at this last moment.

Yu Tianxin knew, and Dai Mubai knew too. Therefore, they made the same choice. At this moment, they launched their final attack, and at this moment, they decided the outcome of the match.

When the White Tiger's Blazing Light Wave faced the Thunderous Might, Dai Mubai concentrated his soul power, and his opponent unleashed a barrage of attacks. But now, when the White Tiger's Meteor Shower faced the Blue Lightning Divine Dragon's Swiftness, the opposite was true.

Countless white meteors surged forth, turning completely golden as they flew through the air.

The little blue dragon bared its teeth and brandished its claws as it faced the shooting star that would decide its fate.

The violent collision caused the arena to groan, and large clumps of dirt were hurled into the air by the powerful explosion. In the instant the collision began, no one knew whether the dragon would destroy the meteor, or the meteor would destroy the dragon. The outcome would be revealed in a few breaths.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom...

Countless roars obscured the figures of the two imposing men in the dust, and a mushroom cloud formed from condensed earth rose into the air above the arena. The intense shockwave from the powerful soul energy forced the team members from various academies closest to the arena to activate their own soul energy to withstand it.

The flags of the Heavenly Dou Empire fluttered loudly outside the arena in the face of this enormous impact.

It's over. It's all over.

When the dust settles, when all the splendor vanishes, when the dragon and the tiger disappear simultaneously, it's all over.

Two men remained standing. Two wounded men, neither of them falling. They stood there, staring at their opponent. They did not move.

Yu Tianxin smiled, and Dai Mubai smiled too. Although their smiles looked stiff, they were full of sincerity.

"You're strong. Stronger than I imagined. Is this your true strength? I've lost." Though unwilling, she had to admit it. Yu Tianxin calmly uttered these words.

Dai Mubai said calmly, "No, you didn't lose. Although you lost this match, your spirit didn't lose to me. I look forward to our next encounter."

"Okay." The last word slipped from Yu Tianxin's lips. The next moment, he finally lost all control of his body and crashed to the ground like a mountain of gold or a jade pillar. The dragon scales on his arms shattered at the same instant, and blood splattered everywhere.

Dai Mubai remained standing, his back ramrod straight, and slowly turned around with difficulty. His gaze first fell on Grandmaster, then on Tang San, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and their group of companions. He seemed to be saying to everyone, "I won, Shrek Academy won."

His wicked gaze finally settled on that voluptuous and beautiful figure. Dai Mubai saw her smiling face, and his icy demeanor seemed to melt away. The next moment, the melted iceberg had transformed into a phantom image that magnified before his eyes.

His vision blurred, as if through a layer of mist. Dai Mubai desperately tried to open his eyes wide to see the figure magnified before him. But simultaneously, dozens of jets of blood shot out from his body. His tall, strong body slowly collapsed, landing right in the arms of the rapidly approaching phantom.

Blood stained both of their bodies, but Zhu Zhuqing didn't cry. She was smiling, though her smile was anything but beautiful.

Holding her man tighter, she helped him straighten his back again, because she knew that her man would never yield on the battlefield.

And so, she carried almost his entire weight as she walked out of the arena, step by step.

Shrek Academy vs. Thunder Academy. Shrek Academy wins. Twelve consecutive wins.

Although the competition is over, the brutal scene from before remains unforgettable for everyone. There could be no true winner in this competition, as both participants are still young. They have plenty of time. Their real contest should be about who can reach that ultimate peak first.

After the day's competition ended, Tang San carried Xiao Wu, who had regained consciousness, while Zhu Zhuqing supported Dai Mubai's body. The Shrek Academy group was preparing to return to their camp. It's worth noting that Zhu Zhuqing refused the others' offers of help, insisting on supporting Dai Mubai alone. Although she didn't cry or say anything, her exceptionally beautiful eyes were already red.

"Tang San." A person blocked the way for the Shrek Academy students to return.

Ma Hongjun frowned. "What's going on? Why does someone always come to stop us?"

This time, it wasn't Huo Wu who came, but the man who often came over with a grin, trying to get close to her. Feng Xiaotian, captain of the Shenfeng Academy team.

Tang San, carrying Xiao Wu, pushed his way through the crowd to stand before Feng Xiaotian. He was much more at ease with this man than with Huo Wu. "What is it?"

At the beginning of the qualifying rounds, Feng Xiaotian often came to Shrek Academy. But he never showed up again after that.

Feng Xiaotian took a deep breath, suppressing the emotions that could erupt within him at any moment. "The draw has just ended. Tomorrow, we will be opponents."

"Oh?" Tang San stared at Feng Xiaotian. Just as Grandmaster had predicted, Shrek Academy's luck wasn't good. After facing Thunder Academy, they would face another strong opponent, and it was very likely that this would be the strongest opponent in the competition besides Shrek Academy.

Feng Xiaotian stared at Tang San, his eyes no longer holding the playful glint of before. "Tang San, you just fought against Thunder today. I don't want to take advantage of you. Tomorrow, I'll be the first to go. I hope you're the first too. Let's decide who the final champion of the qualifying rounds is between the two of us. If I lose, Shenfeng Academy will concede."

Tang San was taken aback. He could clearly detect a hint of murderous intent in Feng Xiaotian's tone. He didn't understand why the guy who used to always have a smile on his face had suddenly become so serious. But at this moment, Feng Xiaotian gave off a somewhat oppressive feeling.

All eyes of the Shrek Academy students were focused on Tang San, and no one spoke.

Tang San shook his head. "I'm sorry, I can't agree." A single match would be a decisive victory, and it wouldn't be a loss for Shrek Academy. Dai Mubai was seriously injured and obviously couldn't participate in tomorrow's match. This would be a huge loss for Shrek Academy. But Tang San still didn't agree.

"You don't dare?" Feng Xiaotian's eyes instantly turned into a provocation.

"We are a team, and I cannot decide my teammates' choices based on my own will. I can only represent myself, not the entire Shrek Academy team," Tang San said calmly.

Feng Xiaotian's temper suddenly turned volatile. "Tang San, you're a coward. I just want to fight you fair and square, like Dai Mubai and Yu Tianxin did today."

Seeing Feng Xiaotian's eyes gradually turn red, Tang San didn't know why he was like this, but he didn't ask.

"Agree to him, mistress. We believe you," Dai Mubai's weak voice rang out. "Give him a fight between men. If I'm not mistaken, his request is related to that Fire Dance."

In terms of romantic success, probably no one in the entire Shrek Academy can compare to Dai Mubai. His insight is incredibly sharp; his observations over the past few days have allowed him to discern Feng Xiaotian's feelings for Huo Wu. And Feng Xiaotian hasn't appeared since the day Huo Wu came to see Tang San. Connecting all this, Feng Xiaotian's actions today become easily explainable.
