Chapter 73: Spirit Hall Team's Crush
When they saw the members of the Spirit Hall Academy team, everyone was shocked.

The rumored three heroes of the Spirit Hall, that is, the three young spirit masters who received the Purple Record Medal, did not appear in this team.

Tang San stared at the people on the field intently, thinking in his heart:
"This is already the second round of the game. Even if the opponent is weak, we can't underestimate them, right? None of the three Battle Spirit Kings actually played. Do they trust their teammates so much? This is a game where we have to go home if we lose one game."

Around the arena, students from other academies had the same doubts as Tang San.

However, as the host announced, when the fourteen soul masters on the field released their respective martial souls and soul rings, they realized that they were worrying too much.

On the Sirius Academy team's side, there are only two four-ringed Battle Soul Sect members, and the remaining five are all three-ringed Battle Soul Masters.

On the Spirit Hall Academy team side, all of them are four-ringed fighting soul masters, and each of them has two yellow and two purple soul rings.

There was a huge gap in strength between the two teams on the ring. The outcome seemed doomed from the moment their martial spirits and spirit rings were released.

The game was over before the Spirit Hall Academy team even had time to make an effort.

Seeing that scene, students from other academies were shocked.

Just as the rumors said, no academy could be a match for the Spirit Hall Academy. Any academy that encountered them would lose, and end up in a miserable defeat.

Everyone in Shrek Academy found it unbelievable.

Oscar sighed:

"The students at the Spirit Hall Academy are so good. Even the substitute players have reached level 40 or above in spirit power. It would be strange if there were any rivals for such a team!"

"Yeah. How do other teams play this?"

Ma Hongjun was very angry and unwilling to accept it.

Dugu Bo whispered in Tang San's ear:

"Little monster, this is the strength of the Spirit Hall Academy team. You know, the three War Soul Kings haven't even appeared yet. No academy can surpass them and win the final championship unless a miracle happens."

Tang San's mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"A miracle? Then let us create it."

"You guys come to create? Little monster, I'm not trying to discourage you, but when those three soul kings come on stage, you'll know what the disparity in strength means."

"Really? Then I really want to see them on stage sooner."

No matter what kind of opponent he faces, Tang San is very confident.

He believed that the Shrek Academy team's seven-in-one fusion skills would cause considerable trouble to the Spirit Hall Academy team, and might even be able to defeat them.

Moreover, he has another killer weapon, his extremely poisonous spider venom, which ordinary soul masters cannot withstand at all.

~~~~~
Yan, Xie Yue and Hu Liena greeted their teammates coming down from the ring at the sidelines.

Li Kai smiled and said:

"How was it? Didn't disappoint you?"

"It was a great performance, and everyone worked hard."

"It wasn't hard at all. They conceded defeat before I even had a chance to perform."

Xie Yue chuckled.

"Save it for later."

Li Kai sighed:
"The next game will be the third round. You will definitely all play, so there will be no chance for me to perform well."

"Yes, there will be a fourth and fifth round."

Several members of the Spirit Hall Academy team walked out of the competition venue chatting and laughing, returned to the rest area, and continued to watch the games of other academies.

Today, Xie Yue and Hu Liena paid special attention to the performance of the Shrek Academy team and Tang San.

Unfortunately, the opponent they met was not strong. It was an ordinary academy from the Tiandou Empire region.

Oscar and Ning Rongrong did not play in this match, and Tang San did not play his best. The best performance was Ma Hongjun, who relied on his flying and blazing power to beat his opponent without any chance of fighting back.

Of course, Xie Yue and Hu Liena did not take Ma Hongjun seriously. He was still a three-ringed battle soul master. Compared with Yan, who also had the fire attribute, he was not worth mentioning at all and was not worth worrying about.

The opponents of the three academies, Thunder, Tianshui and Chihuo, were not strong, so they also won the game and successfully entered the next round.

~~~~~~~
After a day's rest, the third round of competition continued.

This year's Soul Master Competition has already selected the top ten.

According to the competition rules, the second-ranked colleges in the two empire divisions will have a bye in the third round, so Thunder College and a college in the Star Luo Empire will directly enter the fourth round of the competition.

There are eight participating teams today, and four will be eliminated after the competition.

Early in the morning, the participating teams arrived at their respective rest areas.

Entering the third round, there were fewer teams and the rest area became more empty.

Huo Wu took Shui Bing'er's arm and came to see Yan again.

Huo Wushuang and Feng Xiaotian followed behind them.

"Brother Yan."

When they saw Yan, several people took the initiative to say hello.

Huo Wu joked:
"Brother Yan, your team is really awesome. When can you play? We still want to see you unleash your ultimate moves. The further we wait, the less chance we will have to see you perform."

Only the final three remain in the fifth round, and the competition venue will be moved to the square in front of the Pope's Palace. Teams that do not make it into the final three will not even be eligible to watch.

Among the three academies of Kamikaze, Tianshui and Chihuo, at least one will not be able to make it into the top three.

If they meet early in the next draw, at least two teams will be eliminated early.

Yan smiled and replied:

"Today, I will play. Whether I will take action or not depends on the opponent's situation."

"Yes. If we meet you, we will just give up and you won't have a chance to show off."

"I hope we don't meet too soon. I hope you can both defeat strong enemies and go further."

They chatted for a while and then returned to their respective teams' rest areas.

The results of the draw came out soon.

The Spirit Hall Academy drew another seeded team, the Tiandou Royal Academy.

Shrek Academy also drew a seeded team, Xingluo Royal Academy.

Kamikaze, Tianshui and Chihuo academies did not draw each other as opponents, which means they all have the possibility of entering the fourth round of the competition.

The first two games of the third round were over quickly.

Tianshui and Chihuo College defeated their opponents respectively and successfully advanced to the next round.

The next third game will be between the Shrek Academy team and the Xingluo Royal Academy team.

After the host made the announcement, players from both teams slowly walked into the competition venue.

The match between Chihuo and Tianshui academies has ended, but they did not leave. Instead, they stayed to watch the game.

The seven members of the Shrek Academy team attracted everyone's attention as soon as they appeared.

Huo Wu frowned, stared at those people, and asked in confusion:
"Today, two players who have never played before appeared in the Shrek team."

Shui Bing'er also noticed it.

"Yes. Since the preliminaries, this is the first time for those two to play. I don't know what's so special about them. They really have been deliberately hiding their abilities."
