Early the next morning, before the participating teams left the hotel, Xingluo Plaza was already packed with enthusiastic spectators waiting to enter.
If it weren't for the sergeant's guidance, there would have been countless vicious stampings and crushing incidents.
The first to set off was the Shrek Academy team. They had just spent an unforgettable night.
Regardless of whether they were feeling relieved or tormented last night, now they must use all their energy to deal with the fateful battle that is about to begin.
Either Shrek fights to the death to defend his thousand-year undefeated glory against the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, or the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy steps on the corpse of Shrek Academy to ascend to the throne and challenge the opponents in the semi-finals and even the finals, or even Winning the crown in this significant competition represents a heavy psychological blow to the people of the Three Kingdoms on behalf of the Sun and Moon Empire.
"We have done our best with a clear conscience, children. I must tell you, don't think about Shrek's eternal glory in today's game. Your only task is to give yourself an explanation and guarantee yourself for decades. When I look back today, I won’t regret that I didn’t try my best!”
Wang Yan walked at the front of the team, smiling gently at the team members who looked solemn and worried.
At this moment, there is no need to say anything more, it is enough to let them completely release themselves on the field.
Ling Luochen has gotten out of the wheelchair, and the entire team finally no longer has such a strong sense of disobedience, and the faces of the Shrek team members all have a serious sense of mission.
As for the members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy who set off soon, their expressions were also very solemn.
From the perspective of the Sun and Moon Empire, defeating Shrek is even more important an honor and task than winning the championship.
But they are different from Shrek. Shrek only needs to fight this match with all his strength, but the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy also needs to consider retaining certain trump cards for the semi-finals and even the finals to reduce consumption as much as possible. This is the closest they have come to winning the championship, and it is unlikely that they will have such a strong lineup and such a good opportunity in the future.
Therefore, there is still some room for reservation in tactics, but it is necessary to use the strongest lineup to face Shrek.
The team battle lineup appointed by Yu Yu is: Ma Rulong, Lin Xi, Mika, Xiao Xiafeng, Xiao Hongchen, Meng Hongchen, and Huo Yuhao.
This is the most suitable combination of personnel for seven-on-seven team battles. Although Huo Yuhao's cultivation level is still low, his importance in team battles is no less than that of a Soul Emperor.
The top eight teams arrived at the arena one after another. The audience was already full of enthusiasm far beyond previous years. The noisy arena forced everyone from the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy to raise their voices when communicating to avoid being drowned out by the sounds coming from the auditorium. live.
"Everyone is silent!"
The one who suppressed the whole crowd was still an old acquaintance, Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxu, the perfect candidate for the Star Luo Empire to show off the power of the soul master.
"I, Huang Jinxu, the chief referee of this competition, now announce that the eight-to-four competition has officially begun!"
"The first game, a team battle, invites the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy and Shrek Academy to take part!"
Today's Star Luo Emperor, Xu Jiawei, unusually appeared directly at the top of the city without checking his face in Star Luo Square. The referee Huang Jinxu started the match directly.
Huang Jinxu's clean style and the opening of the first game, which attracted much attention, completely ignited the enthusiasm of the entire stadium.
Many official spectators held up makeshift banners to express their support for the team on the field - most of them supported Shrek. After all, this was Xingluo's home stadium.
"Go." Yu Yu patted Ma Rulong on the shoulder and glanced at everyone one by one.
The four permanent members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy and the three regular players who were not included in the competition list sat on the chairs in the rest area and looked at each other with the Shrek spectators.
The moment Shrek's players stepped onto the field facing each other, the two sides announced the final roster to each other.
Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, He Huayu, Beibei, Ning Tian, Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu.
Only one of the three Soul Sects took part in the battle, and he rushed over to join the team just after the game started. Jiang Nannan was seriously injured, and He Caitou was unable to play a role in the tactical system.
On the competition stage, Huo Yuhao showed Dai Huabin and Beibei a smile that they couldn't see clearly from a long distance away.
Very good, at least the most important thing has come.
Xiao Hongchen adjusted his collar, with a trace of regret in his eyes.
It's a pity that the pink-haired slut has no choice but to hide off the court.
On top of the city, Princess Xu Jiujiu appeared in public for the first time as a member of the royal family at this competition.
"Jiujiu, you have to be careful. If nothing else happens, the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy will be your opponent in the finals."
Xu Jiujiu nodded gently. Even though she had been hiding her identity and not playing, the Xingluo Royal Academy's team still had a luxurious configuration of up to six soul kings. With the advantage of home field, it could easily defeat Zhengtian Academy.
Although Diao Academy is powerful and is one of the three teams with soul emperors along with Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, their opponents in the semi-finals will be Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. winner.
The opponents in the Star Luo Royal Academy's semi-finals will only be Dou Ling Royal Academy or Mingdu Soul Master Academy, which cannot stop them.
For a long time, there was only the finals and the championship in his eyes.
On the top of the city, Dai Hao, who had been specially recruited from the army by Xu Jiawei to watch the decisive battle, looked at Dai Huabin's figure with his hands behind his back.
Dai Yueheng was seriously injured, and even his future potential was greatly affected. However, when Dai Hao learned the cause and effect of the incident, he had to say that he, the eldest son, was a good person and used his own life to protect his younger brother and sister-in-law. A true man who has not disgraced the White Tiger Duke's Palace.
The brother who was supposed to be the Duke of White Tiger's lifelong pride was now missing one person on the stage. Although Dai Hao still displayed the calm and self-confident attitude he had developed during his military career, he was full of expectations for Dai Huabin's performance.
Although his fate was tragic, I, Dai Hao, still have a son who stood on the field of this crucial battle!
On the competition stage, Huo Yuhao looked up at the majestic blond man who looked somewhat similar to Dai Huabin, with a gentle smile on his lips.
"I am the captain of Shrek Academy, Ma Xiaotao. This is the first battle I have been looking forward to for a long time, and it will also be your last battle in this competition."
On the field, while the players were still organizing their formation, Ma Xiaotao suddenly looked directly in the direction of his opponent and said loudly.
Ma Rulong was stunned for a moment and then responded:
"I am the captain of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, Ma Rulong. I am very happy that I can meet you in such an important competition. We can get to know each other after I send you off."
When everyone stood still and the captains of both teams made a "ready" gesture to the referee's pen, Huang Jinxu announced sternly:
"Game start!"
One hundred and eight metal light pillars are all in preparation for battle, and the soul masters responsible for supplying energy to them have no doubt that the intensity of this battle will even exceed that of the soul guide duel between the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy and the Mingdu Soul Engineer Academy. The battle was filled with soul rays that were flying randomly all over the field, making it extremely difficult for them to deal with it.
The roar of the audience cheering for Shrek covered the entire Xingluo Square. In the packed auditorium, more than 200,000 eyes were fixed on the competition stage.
To everyone's surprise, the two teams who thought it was going to be a fierce confrontation between dry wood and fire made completely different choices at this time.
The Shrek team is very aware of its disadvantages in terms of level and total soul power. The only chance of victory lies in compressing the fighting space, giving full play to its advantages in martial arts and physical fitness, and engaging in close combat and quick combat with the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. Disable their long-distance attack soul guides.
Once they distance themselves and fall into a protracted battle, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy team, which is able to fully utilize the advantages of soul tools and total soul power, is almost unrivaled. Even Shrek has never defeated them through mid-to-long distance battles in thousands of years. Passed the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy.
The Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy did not retreat anymore. They also seized every second and began to build "battlefield fortifications" - the foldable and fixed fortifications were banned, but the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy could completely rely on various methods. Similar simple one-way shields and large-area defensive soul guides produce similar defense and blocking effects through stacking.
