Douluo Continent: Rebuilding the Clear Sky Sect

Chapter 77 The Pledge of Allegiance

Upon receiving this news, Tang Fei's expression immediately turned strange.

He had considered facing Shrek Academy; on the contrary, with neither team being a seeded team, the closer the match got, the greater the probability of them meeting.

Tang Fei hadn't expected that he would run into Shrek Academy in the very first match of all thirty-three teams.

Scarface looked grim. Shrek Academy was quite strong, and he was quite surprised to encounter their opponent right away.

Most importantly, it is no longer a secret that Tang San possesses twin martial souls; his other martial soul is actually the Clear Sky Hammer.

Now, the competition between the two teams has become a battle between disciples of the Haotian Sect.

This is the last thing Scarface wants to see.

"Since the situation has already happened, there's no point in dwelling on it. Let's figure out how to fight them instead." Tang Fei was quite open-minded.

After all, there can only be one champion. The battle between Hammer Academy and Shrek Academy will inevitably come to a conclusion sooner or later; it's just that it will happen a little earlier.

Scarface nodded and said, "I've also obtained the personnel information for the Shrek team."

"Tang San, a level 41 control-type Soul Master, has twin martial souls. His main martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, and his other martial soul is Clear Sky Hammer."

"Dai Mubai, a level 42 offensive-type Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul: Evil-Eyed White Tiger."

"Oscar, Level 38 Food-type Soul Master, Martial Soul: Sausage."

"Ma Hongjun, Level 39 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul: Evil Fire Phoenix."

"Zhu Zhuqing, a level 38 agility-attack type Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul: Netherworld Cat."

"Ning Rongrong, Level 37 Support-type Soul Master, Martial Soul: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."

"Jiangzhu, a level 35 healing-type Soul Master, Martial Soul: Healing Scepter."

"Huang Yuan, Level 35 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul: Lone Wolf."

"Jing Ling, a level 35 agility-attack type Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul: Skull."

There were nine people in total. Apart from Xiao Wu, who was persuaded to leave, Tai Long was also pulled into Hammer Academy by Tang Fei. That was the configuration of Shrek Academy.

To Tang Fei's surprise, even without the aid of immortal-grade items, the Shrek Seven Devils had all cultivated so quickly in this life. Apart from Tang San and Dai Mubai, who were both Soul Masters, the others, even if they weren't Soul Masters, were very close to level 40.

It seems that geniuses are geniuses; they don't fall too far behind just by relying on their own efforts.

Keep in mind that the Shrek Seven Devils are only teenagers.

"On the surface, Shrek Academy is not as strong as us. They only have two Soul Masters, while we have as many as three. And you are even more so." Scarface said, giving Tang Fei a strange look.

He then added, "However, while that may be the case on the surface, the enemy's combat strength is actually far beyond what is expected."

"Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing possess the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Netherworld White Tiger. Once unleashed, they will likely possess power approaching that of a Soul Emperor in a short period of time!"

"And then there's Tang San. His control methods are incredibly powerful. Although Blue Silver Grass is a useless martial soul, he uses it with unparalleled skill... What's most difficult to defend against is his hidden weapons."

Tang Fei nodded. In fact, even without Scarface's information, he already had a very detailed understanding of the Shrek Seven Devils.

In the original work, everything is described in great detail.

In this timeline, without their ascension to immortality, they are even weaker than in the original story.

Overall, there are only two things worth noting about the Shrek team.

One of them is the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Netherworld White Tiger.

The second is Tang San.

Tang San's Eight Spider Lances contain a deadly poison. Using his Bat Wing Reincarnation technique to shoot out fragments of the Eight Spider Lances would be his most terrifying trump card.

Tang Fei chose to take the "Looking Through Autumn Water Dew" to avoid encountering Tang San.

night.

A cardinal from the Spirit Hall arrived at the rest area of ​​Hammer Academy.

"In your next battle against the Shrek Academy team, you must do your best to cripple Tang San."

After meeting with the person in charge of Smartisan Academy, he stated his purpose directly.

Scarface cursed inwardly, but hesitated, saying, "In a Soul Master competition, we should certainly go all out, but wouldn't it be against the rules to target a specific person?"

"Rules?" The cardinal chuckled. "With His Holiness the Pope backing you up, what rules are you afraid of?"

"Besides, the Spirit Hall has more seats on the judging panel than the two great empires combined. So what if they see through it?"

Scarface and Tang Fei exchanged a glance, and both felt a chill run down their spines.

Sending the Hammer Team to deal with Tang San is forcing them to pledge their loyalty.

Scarface took a deep breath and feigned agreement, saying, "Your Excellency, we know what to do."

The latest novel is first published here!

The cardinal nodded, offering a reminder: "If you want to join the Spirit Hall, you must be absolutely resolute!"

After saying that, he quietly left.

After confirming that he was really far away, Scarface cast a questioning look at Tang Fei, "What should we do about this?"

"Hmm...it must be that the Spirit Hall isn't trusting me enough and is doubting me," Tang Fei pondered.

Hammer Academy is backed by Yuexuan, and Tang Yuehua is a member of the Haotian Sect. The Spirit Hall should be able to find out this.

The reason they didn't attack Tang Yuehua was not only because of the influence of the Heaven Dou royal family, but also because Tang Yuehua herself was actually very weak and didn't usually interfere in the affairs of the Soul Master world.

In Tiandou City, although Salas had personally investigated, he remained skeptical of Hammer Academy's defection, considering that Tang Yuehua was behind Hammer Academy and he couldn't ascertain whether it had the support of the Haotian Sect.

Therefore, the Spirit Hall came up with this plan to have Hammer Academy cripple Tang San.

Tang San is a direct disciple of the Clear Sky Sect. If Hammer Academy were to cripple him, it would demonstrate that it has no connection with the Clear Sky Sect.

Even if there is a connection, it is enough to sever all ties!

Tang Fei gritted his teeth in anger.

The Spirit Hall's strategy was truly insidious; they actually used such a method to prove their identity.

If Hammer Academy pretends to be no match for Shrek Academy, or throws the game, then the championship battle will be in danger again.

How to choose?

"I think it's time to talk to Shrek Academy."

Scarface stood up and said with a serious expression, "The Spirit Hall is targeting them, and I believe they can sense it."

"What are you going to do?"

"Let's negotiate a private duel with Shrek Academy!" Scarface sneered, his eyes narrowing. "Since the Spirit Hall is forcing us to do this, then don't blame us for not following the tournament rules."

"You absolutely cannot cripple a disciple of the Haotian Sect on the field. Otherwise, how will you maintain your standing in the Haotian Sect in the future?"

"In that case, let's have a private duel with Shrek Academy, a kind of spirit battle. The loser can simply forfeit and abandon the competition!"

After thinking about it, even though Shrek Academy didn't get the immortal item, they still let Tang San become the Soul Master; otherwise, there wouldn't be much to see.
