Unrivaled Tang Sect: The Dragon King Guards the World!

Chapter 52: Take It Away

As soon as the draw was over, the seven people from Changning College rushed onto the competition stage at an extremely fast speed. Although they had not yet completely retreated to their battle positions, they had already quickly formed a cone formation, and the one standing in the front was the arrogant and domineering captain.

After Ye Qian'an chattered for a while, Gu Yuena and the other two nodded repeatedly, and then they followed each other onto the competition stage together.

At this moment, the referee saw that only three people from Shrek Academy came on stage, and a puzzled look appeared on his face. He said loudly: "This is a team battle. Please ask the rest of your team members to come on stage quickly, otherwise they will be considered to have forfeited."

The captain of Changning Academy smiled even more contemptuously when he heard the referee's words. He laughed loudly, "The Shrek Academy is really no good now. They are so nervous that they make such low-level mistakes. It's a pity for the reputation of the number one academy in the continent. Although our Changning Academy is not the number one in the continent, it is also a good experience to be able to beat the number one today."

Gu Yuena didn't even look at the people from Changning College, and said in a faint voice: "You don't really think you are very strong? No matter how many ants there are, they are just ants after all. It is easy to crush you to death." As she spoke, she took Huo Yuhao, Ling Luochen and the other two to the side of the competition stage.

The referee was stunned and couldn't help asking, "Are you really only three people participating in the competition?"

"Remember to protect them." Ling Luochen nodded and said, then walked away slowly.

Ling Luochen had already retreated to the edge of the venue. She stood in front, Huo Yuhao stood behind her, and Gu Yuena stood beside them. At this moment, Ling Luochen, who already had a cold expression, looked even colder, as if he could freeze the air around him.

The opponent finally retreated to the edge of the competition stage. The referee raised his right hand and said, "Both sides are ready, the game begins!"

As his right hand fell instantly, the seven people from Changning College quickly released their martial spirits. Except for the captain who was a Soul King, the other six were all Soul Sect-level players. Moreover, the soul rings of their captain had the best ratio of two yellow, two purple and one black.

Ling Luochen also released her martial spirit, also two yellow, two purple, and one black, while Huo Yuhao behind her had two white spirit rings, and Gu Yuena had four golden spirit rings. Gu Yuena's fourth golden spirit ring shone, and the Heaven Devouring Earth Domain was activated instantly. Instantly, the elemental power in the field began to transform into ice attributes, and also rolled towards the people of Changning College. Huo Yuhao also immediately released the Ultimate Ice to increase the power of Ling Luochen.

Ling Luochen raised her right hand, and with the kindness of the first soul ring, the ice staff appeared in her hand. The air around her became colder, and feeling the bonus of the extreme ice attribute, she directly activated her fifth soul ring.

The seven people from Changning College on the opposite side felt something was wrong just after they released their martial spirits, because they all felt the temperature drop sharply, and then saw a circle of ice-blue light instantly expand on the opposite side.

"Shrek Academy is just a madman, everyone be careful!" Captain Changning cursed softly and immediately released his soul skills, preparing to resist carefully.

In his opinion, a soul skill that covers such a large area must not be too powerful. After they hold on, it is time to counterattack, but is it really as easy as they think? You must know that Gu Yuena has used the Heaven-Devouring and Earth-Devouring Domain to completely transform the competition field into an ice battlefield. The ability of ice attributes will be greatly enhanced. What awaits them is only the freezing.

Soon, everyone at Changning College saw a scene that stunned them. In his sight, the referee, who was quickly retreating from the center of the competition venue, suddenly froze and turned into an ice sculpture in an instant, maintaining a backward posture without moving.

Before the people from Changning College could react, they all felt the extreme coldness one after another. The extreme coldness made everyone feel cold, and then their vision blurred. In just a moment, they were frozen into eight ice sculptures, and even half of the soul shield was frozen, clearly separated from the position where Gu Yuena and the other two were standing.

Huo Yuhao's heart twitched secretly, thinking to himself, why does this need my help? Looking at the iceberg in front of him, these students of Changning College would be frozen for at least a few days.

The audience and the teams from various colleges were all stunned. The ice broke and the referee came out. However, his body shivered several times and he wanted to say something but swallowed it back.

Gu Yuena looked at the seven people frozen in Changning College, and recalled her arrogant words to Ye Qian'an when they drew lots just now, and she was furious. A huge green wind blade condensed in front of her, and the wind blade exuded a sharp breath, as if it was a sharp blade that could cut through everything in the world. The air around the wind blade was cut and twisted, making a sharp whistling sound.

Huo Yuhao was shocked when he saw this. He quickly stepped forward and said, “Sister Nana, isn’t this too much? They have already been punished.”

Ling Luochen also frowned slightly and said, "It's enough to teach them a lesson. There's no need to kill them all. After all, this is just a game."

Gu Yuena looked at the two of them, and after a moment of silence, she still released the wind blade in her hand. The green wind blade crossed the field, bringing with it a sharp whistling sound, and slashed straight at the iceberg. The iceberg broke into pieces, and the seven people trapped in the ice also flew straight out of the field as the iceberg broke.

"Don't thank me. I helped you get them out so you don't waste time. This can be considered a lesson." Gu Yuena snorted coldly.

There was an uproar in the audience, who were so shocked by Gu Yuena's domineering behavior that they were speechless. The members of the various college teams looked at each other, and their awe for Shrek Academy increased a little more.

The referee was also stunned at this time. He opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. After a while, he came to his senses, cleared his throat, and said loudly: "Shrek Academy wins."

“Boom——” The whole audience was in an uproar.

Huo Yuhao and Ling Luochen looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly, but they still breathed a sigh of relief. They knew Gu Yuena's temper, and once Ye Qian'an was involved, it would be difficult for her to change her decision.

The students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy all had stiff expressions on their faces. It was as if they had lost the ability to think. Looking at the iceberg just now, they all wondered in their hearts, is this still a ten thousand year soul skill?
When Gu Yuena, Ling Luochen and Huo Yuhao walked off the stage, the other people from Shrek Academy looked at each other in bewilderment. It was because Gu Yuena almost threw dust at them after the captain of the other team said something shamelessly about Ye Qian'an.

Xiaoxiao, Wang Dong and Jiang Nannan's eyes changed when they looked at Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena. What kind of domineering and protective iceberg queen is this?

When Gu Yuena came to him, Ye Qian gently held her hand and whispered, "Don't be so impulsive next time."

Gu Yuena raised her chin slightly, with a hint of stubbornness in her eyes: "They shouldn't offend you."

Gu Yuena's words warmed Ye Qian'an's heart. He also knew his important position in Gu Yuena's heart. At this time, the audience around the stadium were still immersed in the shocking scene just now, and discussions were heard one after another.

The students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy could not calm down for a long time. They began to re-examine the gap between themselves and Shrek Academy, while the representative teams of other academies were also secretly pondering how to deal with Shrek Academy if they met it in the next game.

As usual, the Shrek Academy team did not stay for too long. After the game, they quickly left the venue and returned to the hotel. The round-robin tournament had entered the fourth round and had entered the middle stage. The first group where Shrek Academy was located had only eight teams in total, and each team had to participate in seven games to complete a round.

In the next three games, Shrek Academy did not encounter any opponents that could pose a threat to them. Ye Qian'an and Gu Yuena simply did not participate in the following games. All the games were handed over to the seven members of the reserve team. Through two single elimination games and one team battle, they defeated their opponents and finally advanced to the next round as the first in the group with a record of seven wins. Also advancing from the first group with them was Zhengtian Academy, whose fingers were crushed by Ye Qian'an.

Since there were nine teams in other groups, they were given three days of rest after the Shrek Academy competition. Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yuheng have fully recovered from their injuries.

In the past few days, Xiao Xiao broke through the bottleneck of level 30, and now only lacked a third soul ring. Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong relied on the continuous practice of the power of Haodong. The soul power of each of them increased by one level in a short period of time, and they also perfected the following martial soul fusion skills. With everyone's injuries healed, the Shrek Academy team also returned to its peak state. "The matchup list for the knockout stage has been released." Wang Yan frowned slightly and said in a solemn voice.

"The academy we are facing in the th and th round is an old rival, the first academy of the Dou Ling Empire, the Dou Ling Royal Academy."

Hearing the words "Douling Royal Academy", Ma Xiaotao frowned, Dai Yueheng's expression became serious, and Ling Luochen narrowed his eyes slightly, looking ahead thoughtfully.

Ma Xiaotao frowned and asked, "We ran into them so early?"

Xiao Xiao asked curiously: "Is this Dou Ling Royal Academy strong?"

Ma Xiaotao asked, "Do you think the top four from last year were strong?"

Wang Yan said: "This year's Douling Royal Academy has five Soul Kings and two Soul Masters in its regular team. They are very strong, and almost all of their players have soul guides. And they can use them skillfully in the competition."

"I am most experienced in fighting Soul Kings. One against one, I will definitely win. One against two, I will crush them. One against three, it will be easy. One against four, I can win. One against five, I have the advantage. The record can be checked." Ye Qian'an stood up, his voice sonorous and powerful.

When everyone heard Ye Qian'an's words, they were stunned at first, and then different expressions appeared on their faces.

Ma Xiaotao raised the corners of her mouth slightly, with a hint of admiration in her eyes: "You are quite confident, but this Douling Royal Academy is not so easy to deal with."

Dai Yuheng also nodded: "Yes, their overall strength is very strong, and they work well together. We can't take it lightly."

Ling Luochen looked at Ye Qian thoughtfully: "Do you have any specific strategy? After all, facing such a powerful opponent, confidence alone is not enough."

Ye Qian glanced at everyone present and said calmly, "I have more than just confidence. If the competition didn't prohibit malicious killing, I would only need one move to destroy the team."

As soon as Ye Qian'an said this, the whole place fell silent. Everyone looked at him in shock, their eyes full of disbelief.

Wang Yan nodded thoughtfully. Old Xuan had told him that Ye Qian'an possessed a soul bone. That soul bone was attached to the right palm of the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear. He couldn't tell how strong its attack power was.

"Okay, Qi'an, sit down first. I will explain to you the rules of the knockout stage." Wang Yan said.

"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition has been developing for tens of thousands of years, and the rules of the competition have been constantly changing..."

"Teacher Wang, what if I get injured or exhausted in the team battle and can't participate in the individual competition?"

Wang Yan said: "Every academy that comes to participate in the competition brings a reserve team, just like you are originally a reserve team. Once the regular players encounter the situation you described, the reserve team must step up."

“Now, I will arrange the players for tomorrow’s game. Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, Ling Luochen, Ye Qian, Xu Sanshi, Huo Yuhao, and Wang Dong. The seven of you will participate in the team battle. Ling Luochen and Huo Yuhao will be the main controllers, and the others will attack head-on. Use your overall strength to defeat the opponent. As a rotation lineup, Nana, Beibei, Xiaoxiao, Nannan, and Caitou must also be ready to join the battle at any time.”

The return of two Soul Emperors and a Soul King has made Wang Yan full of confidence in victory. They only need four more wins in the knockout rounds to secure the final championship, and they have at least two martial soul fusion skills.

At this moment, suddenly, the door of the conference room was knocked, and a pleasant female voice came from outside the door: "Sorry to bother you, I'm from the Starlight Auction House."

Wang Yan couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this familiar voice. He saw a woman in a black dress standing outside the door. She looked to be about 28 or 29 years old, which was the age when a woman had a mature charm but still had a youthful aura.

Qingya's eyes fell directly on Wang Yan. She smiled slightly and saluted Wang Yan, saying, "Hello, Teacher Wang. I'm sorry to bother you all."

When Wang Yan saw that it was her, his eyes seemed to soften a little, and he asked in a deep voice: "What do you want? And how did you find this place?"

Qingya said apologetically: "Last time when you purchased the items, you paid with the Shrek Academy account, so we naturally guessed your background..." As she spoke, she took out a stack of invitations and placed them on the table, then bowed again with a smile and said, "I won't bother you anymore." As she spoke, she slowly backed away, walked out of the room, and closed the door.

Looking at the stack of exquisite gold-stamped invitations, Wang Yan narrowed his eyes and said, "Thirteen invitations, not one less, and they were able to ignore the official blockade of the hotel by the Xing Luo Empire and send the invitations here. What a generous act."

Dai Yuheng took an invitation, looked at it, and said, "It is indeed a top auction. The auctioneer is right. Auctions of this level only happen once or twice a year. Mr. Wang, what do you think?"

Ye Qian'an glanced at Gu Yuena, only to see her beautiful eyes slightly closed. After a while, she nodded. The person they had forged before also received two invitations. To be on the safe side, Di Tian was also on standby at any time.

At this time, Wang Yan looked around at all the students and saw a gleam of hope in almost everyone's eyes.

"Okay. Everyone has been participating in the competition, so you should relax. However, watch more and talk less, and avoid all troubles as much as possible. Tomorrow's competition is crucial and cannot be affected in any way. Return to the hotel and rest immediately after the auction."

"Long live Teacher Wang!" Xiao Xiao was the first to jump up. Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong and the others also had excited looks on their faces.

Wang Yan laughed and scolded, "Put your minds back on track. I need to plan the tactics for tomorrow's game."

It didn't take too long to arrange the tactics for the game, and then everyone went back to their rooms to practice. After dinner, they changed into ordinary clothes and came to the Starlight Auction House with the invitation of the Starlight Auction House. As usual, Ye Qian and Gu Yuena declined to go with everyone on the grounds of practice. After everyone left, the two of them left quietly.
