In the end, for the sake of his reputation as a Grandmaster and his future, Yu Xiaogang could only look at Tang San with a serious expression and say, "Little San, you must be careful. You absolutely cannot let anyone discover your self-created soul skills. Otherwise, given the ignorance of the world, it will only worsen people's perception of Shrek Academy."
After saying this, Yu Xiaogang also looked at Dai Mubai. "Mubai, from now on, it's up to the two of you."
Dai Mubai nodded without saying much.
However, his gaze was heavy as he looked in Zhu Zhuqing's direction. Seeing his fiancée so gently serving another man, and noticing the increasingly profound aura around her, Dai Mubai could even imagine how his fiancée might be ravished by that bastard Xiao Yu until she was rolling her eyes in bed.
Just the thought of it made Dai Mubai feel nauseous and uncomfortable.
After adjusting his mindset, Shrek Academy once again began their fight for a higher ranking.
In the next match, Shrek Academy faced Heaven Dou Academy.
Without any surprise, in the face of Heaven Dou Academy's freezing frost, even though the poison on Tang San's Blue Silver Grass could corrode ice, it couldn't deal significant damage to Heaven Dou Academy's members.
In the end, under the combined martial soul skill of Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu, the members of Shrek Academy were frozen into ice sculptures.
Although they lost to Heaven Dou Academy, Tang San and the others were not disheartened. Instead, they became even more eager for the next match.
Moreover, this match wasn't a complete loss for Shrek Academy. At the very least, the fact that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass could release poison had already served as a warning to the audience. This would make it easier to explain any tricks Tang San might use with his Blue Silver Grass in future matches.
After being defeated by Heaven Dou Academy, Shrek Academy's members initially planned to leave immediately. However, upon hearing that the next match would be Blue Tyrant Academy versus Canghui Academy, they decided to stay and watch after some discussion.
As the match began, something shocking happened.
This time, the one stepping onto the stage for Blue Tyrant Academy was not Dugu Yan, but the team captain, Xiao Yu.
"What the hell? What's going on? Xiao Yu is actually stepping onto the stage? Is Canghui Academy that strong? Did they really force Xiao Yu to come out? Is it really necessary for Xiao Yu to fight against Canghui Academy?!"
Oscar, looking at Xiao Yu standing alone on the stage, was visibly shocked.
As for Oscar's words, Yu Xiaogang and the others were equally stunned.
In their eyes, Canghui Academy was only maintaining an undefeated record because they hadn't faced any strong teams. It was inevitable that they would lose once they faced powerful teams like Heaven Dou Academy or Blazing Academy.
Even Yu Xiaogang himself believed that Canghui Academy wasn't a formidable academy.
Why was Blue Tyrant Academy changing their strategy now?
Why were they abandoning Dugu Yan, who had single-handedly defeated over twenty academy teams, and sending out their captain, Xiao Yu, instead?
It wasn't just Shrek Academy's members who were surprised. Even the big shots in the audience were baffled.
They couldn't understand what Blue Tyrant Academy was doing.
Huo Wu from Blazing Academy, seeing this, was so angry that her chest heaved up and down. Her delicate face, already flushed, turned even redder with anger.
"What is Blue Tyrant Academy doing? Is a small academy like Canghui Academy really stronger than our Blazing Academy? They even sent out their captain?"
Huo Wu, looking at Xiao Yu on the stage, was filled with rage.
Beside her, Huo Wushuang was slightly calmer. After comforting his sister, he spoke with a bitter smile.
"Sister, calm down. Blue Tyrant Academy has maintained their first place through sheer strength. Now that they've made such an unexpected move, there are only two possibilities. Either Canghui Academy is truly extraordinary and has deceived everyone about their strength, or Xiao Yu is simply itching for a fight and wants to bully a weaker academy. Either way, Blue Tyrant Academy is definitely aiming for victory in this match."
Listening to her brother's words, Huo Wu's face showed a thoughtful expression.
If what her brother said was true, the first possibility seemed too far-fetched. Canghui Academy's true strength was well-known among the major academies.
But the second possibility made more sense.
Could it be that Xiao Yu was simply bored and wanted to step onto the stage for some fun?
Huo Wu muttered softly to herself.
At this moment, no one in the audience could figure out Xiao Yu's intentions.
It wasn't just the others who were shocked to see Xiao Yu step onto the stage. Even the members of Canghui Academy, who had prepared to use their Seven Asura Illusion to deal with Dugu Yan, were stunned when they saw Xiao Yu instead.
"Captain, what do we do?!"
The members of Canghui Academy, seeing Xiao Yu on the stage, asked in confusion.
In response, the captain of Canghui Academy sneered.
"Hmph, what do we do? Originally, we just wanted to destroy Dugu Yan. Now that we have the chance to destroy the even stronger Xiao Yu, isn't that even better?! The Seven Asura Illusion our teacher taught us is invincible. Whether it's Xiao Yu or Dugu Yan, it makes no difference!"
As the captain spoke, the members of Canghui Academy all looked coldly in Xiao Yu's direction.
"This time, let's end Blue Tyrant Academy's winning streak and step on them to claim the top spot!"
The captain of Canghui Academy sneered.
Seeing the killing intent in the eyes of the seven opponents, Xiao Yu simply smiled.
Although Dugu Yan could probably win this match as well, given that the Jade Phosphor Serpent's poison wouldn't be affected by illusions, there was still a risk of her being mentally injured by the Seven Asura Illusion.
Therefore, to be safe, Xiao Yu decided to step in himself.
Besides, he had been lying around for too long. It was time to show these ordinary people what a true genius looked like.
This would also shut up those who kept doubting him.
"Blue Tyrant Academy versus Canghui Academy, the match begins!!!"
The referee, standing between the two teams, shouted with his powerful soul power-infused voice before quickly retreating to the edge of the arena.
This Soul Sage referee, watching Xiao Yu slowly step onto the stage, couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling an unusual pressure.
Even though Xiao Yu wasn't releasing any soul power, the referee still felt an overwhelming pressure.
