The referee was obviously frightened by Yuan Gungun's behavior. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted, nodded, and announced the result of the game.

The audiences in the audience were a little confused. In their opinion, the two had just been fighting back and forth, and it was very exciting. Why did he suddenly admit defeat?
This most primitive kind of battle is what they like to watch the most. They were enjoying it very much, but Yuan Gungun actually admitted defeat, which made them feel very disappointed.

Fortunately, the referee explained at this time, "Yuan Gungun has consumed too much energy. Although she doesn't seem to have any injuries now, her soul power has actually been almost used up."

"It's only natural to admit defeat."

The referee's explanation made the audience suddenly realize what was going on. It was also normal that Yuan Gungun didn't have enough soul power after a big fight.

After they imagined it for a while, they watched Yuan Gungun walk off the stage.

On the other side, Han Yu also stood up and walked towards the competition stage.

Is it him?

A question mark flashed through everyone's mind.

They had watched Han Yu’s matches before, but at that time he was playing against Nan Qiuqiu, and Han Yu did not use his full strength. Everyone’s impression of him was still that he was just okay.

That is the strength of a Soul King.

On the high rostrum, Xu Tianran, dressed in gorgeous clothes, leaned forward slightly, revealing a look of interest.

He turned to look at Jing Hongchen beside him, with a hint of inquiry in his tone:
"Master, I have had the honor of watching this young man compete before. From what I know, his strength should be at the Soul King level."

At this point, Xu Tianran paused deliberately, his eyes swept across the tall figure on the competition stage below, and continued:

"Why is the Hall Master so confident in this young man? You know, his opponent is a powerful Soul Emperor and the captain of the Shrek team."

Jing Hongchen heard this and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips. He bowed slightly and replied slowly:
"Your Highness, is there a possibility that perhaps all of us have underestimated this young man?"

He deliberately emphasized the word "underestimated" a little more, leaving enough room for Xu Tianran's imagination, and then continued:

"Perhaps, he has hidden strength that we are not aware of."

Jing Hongchen's gaze fell on Han Yu who was slowly walking towards the competition stage, and he already knew the result of the competition.

Although Beibei is gifted and strong, he is still inferior to Han Yu.

"Oh? Really?" Xu Tianran raised his eyebrows and responded in surprise. He looked at Jing Hongchen and said with a hint of amusement in his tone:

"Then I'll have to wait and see. It seems that the hall master has much more information than I do."

Jing Hongchen heard the hidden meaning in Xu Tianran's words, but laughed it off calmly and responded calmly:

"Your Highness, you are joking. I just did some homework in private out of my responsibility to the empire."

"The Hall Master is truly a loyal minister of the Sun Moon Empire."

Xu Tianran praised her generously, and then stopped talking. He turned his gaze to the competition stage, ready to watch this match between two teams with a huge disparity in strength.

Under the stage, Yuan GunGun and Han Yu passed by each other and said in a low voice:

"Boss, I'll leave this guy to you. His martial spirit is a bit restraining to me."

Han Yu heard this without pausing, but just nodded slightly and replied in a deep voice: "Don't worry."

After saying that, he strode onto the competition stage and faced Beibei who had been waiting there for a long time.

On the wide competition stage, the players from both sides quickly stood in the center, with Bupo Douluo, who was responsible for supervising the competition, and other referees standing on both sides.

"Both parties are known by their given names." Zheng Zhan's voice was deep and powerful, echoing on the competition stage.

"Shrek Academy, Beibei." Beibei stepped forward and introduced himself in a deep voice.

"Snow Demon Sect, Han Yu." Han Yu's tone was calm, but it revealed a strong sense of confidence.

Zheng Zhan's eyes swept over the two of them and he said in a deep voice:
"Back off and prepare for the match. I want to emphasize that you should try not to be ruthless in the match and stop when you are satisfied. When I determine that one side is not strong enough, I will immediately stop the match."

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Han Yu had a faint smile on his face and was the first to speak, breaking the silence between the two. His voice was clear and calm, as if he was just greeting an old friend.

Beibei took a deep breath and nodded slowly, but his expression was slightly solemn. The scene of the previous battle flashed through his mind. At that time, he had no power to fight back against Han Yu and could only flee in embarrassment.

"I didn't expect that I could fight you again." Beibei said in a deep voice, with a hint of emotion and determination in his tone.
"This time, I'm not as weak as before."

Han Yu's smile deepened. He waved his hand and said in a relaxed tone, "Don't worry, use whatever tricks you have. I'll take them all."

He paused, a gleam of curiosity flashed in his eyes, "Let's see what hidden skills you Shrek have."

Beibei's lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing and just nodded silently.

He looked at Han Yu deeply, then turned around and walked slowly towards the side of the competition stage. Every step he took seemed steady and powerful, as if carrying a tremendous amount of strength.

Han Yu watched Bei Bei walk towards the competition stage, with a faint smile on his lips.

After Beibei walked away, he turned around and walked towards the other side of the competition stage. His steps were light and graceful, forming a sharp contrast with Beibei's calmness.

Soon, both parties arrived at the designated location, turned around and faced each other from a distance. Their eyes met, and there seemed to be invisible sparks colliding in the air, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan stood in the center of the competition arena. His sharp eyes swept across the entire arena. He raised his right hand high, and his deep voice resounded throughout the arena: "The competition begins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Beibei moved.

He lightly tapped the ground with his toes, and the whole person flew towards Han Yu like an arrow, at a speed that was astonishing.

His movements were swift and agile, yet not filled with violent force like Qiu'er's. Instead, they were smooth like flowing water.

However, throughout the entire action, it gave people a vague feeling, as if his figure was constantly flickering in the air, making it elusive.

It looked like he was rushing forward, but in fact, his body was changing positions at a high speed, making it difficult to predict his movements.

At this moment, even with Han Yu's powerful mental strength, he felt that he was unable to lock onto his opponent. This strange situation startled him and he realized that Bei Bei's strength was even stronger than he had imagined.

Han Yu immediately made a judgment, not daring to be negligent. His eyes focused, and his whole body's soul power burst out instantly, ready to respond. Almost at the same time, both sides released their martial spirits at the same time.

On Beibei's body, six spirit rings, two yellow, two purple and two black, rose from under his feet one by one. The standard optimal spirit ring ratio demonstrated his talent and hard work.

As his martial spirit was released, lightning and thunder burst out from his body, enveloping him completely.

Dense lightning flashed and jumped around him, making crackling sounds, and the surrounding space was filled with violent thunder elements. The air was filled with a heart-pounding sense of oppression.

When everyone at Shrek saw his posture, they knew that Beibei was unreserved this time. He mobilized all his attention right from the start and was obviously feeling tremendous pressure.

As for Han Yu, this was also the first time he showed his spirit ring configuration in a formal competition.

rub!
Two scarlet rays of light burst out from his eyes, like two blood-red lightning bolts cutting through the night sky. An enchanting scarlet light instantly illuminated the entire competition stage, and everyone's attention was attracted by this sudden light.

Then, in the shocked gazes of everyone, spirit rings of various colors rose up from under his feet one after another, releasing dazzling light.

Purple, purple, red, red, red, red, red!
There are seven soul rings in total, five of which are red soul rings representing ten thousand year soul beasts. This terrifying soul ring configuration is like a thunderclap, exploding in everyone's ears and directly shocking everyone.

How can it be?

Everyone was filled with unbelievable shock!
How is it possible that someone's spirit ring could have this configuration?

On the rostrum, if Xu Tianran had not been a disabled person, he would probably have stood up.

But even so, his body was shaking violently, his hands tightly grasped the handrails on both sides, his fingertips were white, and it was obvious that he was not calm.

"Five hundred thousand year spirit rings, Hall Master, what's going on with this Han Yu? Is this a deliberate illusion created to attract attention?"

It’s no wonder Xu Tianran didn’t believe it, but it was really unbelievable.

This simply breaks the common sense of the soul master world.

Even Tang San, who had become a god ten thousand years ago, couldn't do this at this age.

But Han Yu actually did it.

Rather than believing it was real, he would rather believe it was an illusion.

Jing Hongchen was not pretending. He stared blankly at Han Yu on the stage. His throat moved slightly and he swallowed hard.

He said affirmatively: "Your Highness, this is real. It is indeed the aura of a hundred thousand year old spirit beast. It is absolutely impossible to be fake."

In fact, Xu Tianran also knew that it was true. After all, he was also a Titled Douluo, so he could still tell whether it was true or false. But he just couldn't believe it.

"How can such a person exist on this continent? If I can't use him, then..."

Xu Tianran was worthy of being the regent. He came to his senses after being shocked for a while.

I immediately understood what Han Yu’s appearance meant.

If nothing unexpected happens, when Han Yu cultivates to the level of a Titled Douluo, no one will be able to hold him hostage, and his goal of unifying the world will be further hindered.

So, the next step is either to win him over or to kill him directly.

Below the rostrum, the members of the Holy Spirit Sect were all stunned, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

They were whispering to each other, discussing Han Yu's Soul Saint strength.

Huo Yuhao was the only one there, his face as calm as water, as if everything before him had nothing to do with him.

However, beneath his calm appearance, there was a barely perceptible tremor, which came from a shock deep in his heart.

On the other hand, the faces of the Shrek Academy team members turned pale in an instant, and everyone's eyes were filled with despair and fear.

The seven soul rings represent an insurmountable gap and the terrifying power of the Soul Sage level.

If they were ordinary Soul Saints, they might be able to fight to the death, but in their hearts, the name Han Yu was like a nightmare, making them shudder.

Xu Sanshi's face turned pale, and he muttered to himself, "It's over, it's over, Beibei is really going to lose this time. Who else in our Shrek Academy can be his opponent?"

He Caitou, who had already woken up, looked equally grim, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"How could this be? How could he be a Soul Saint? Moreover, how could his soul ring be so terrifying?"

"Or, let's admit defeat..." There was a hint of trembling in Xu Sanshi's voice. Facing such a powerful opponent, his will to fight had long since disappeared.

He Caitou raised his head suddenly and said with a firm look in his eyes: "No! Sanshi, we can't give up! No matter what, we must try our best!"

He took a deep breath and continued, "If we admit defeat now, we will become the sinners of Shrek Academy! Moreover, no matter how strong he is, he can't defeat all of us alone!"

"We've already won one game, and if we win two more, we'll be able to advance to the team competition!"

"When the time comes, if we concentrate all our strength, we may have a chance to defeat him!"

When Xu Sanshi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he slapped his head, suddenly realizing:
"Yes! Why didn't I think of that!" He took a deep breath and said with a firm look in his eyes:

"We must do everything we can to deplete his spirit power! Even if Beibei can't win, we must try to make him consume too much spirit power to buy us a chance!"

Ignoring the comments of others, Beibei stared at Han Yu, his forward steps came to an abrupt stop, and his eyes became dull.

He originally thought that he had overestimated Han Yu's strength, but he didn't expect that the reality was far more cruel than he imagined.

Han Yu's strength has far exceeded his expectations and even his understanding.

He took a deep breath and bit the tip of his tongue hard. The intense pain woke him up instantly.

"Don't let him scare you! I still have teammates! Even if I can't win, I have to do my best to consume his spirit power!"

Bei Bei secretly swore in his heart, "As long as I can hold him back, we may have a chance in the team competition!"

Thinking of this, Beibei's eyes gradually became firm, and He Caitou's words echoed in his ears. The two of them thought of the same thing, and a glimmer of hope ignited in their hearts. (End of this chapter)
