Chapter 97 An Eye for an Eye
Opportunity always favors the prepared, and this was indeed the only chance for the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.
Unfortunately, in the original story, he was still brutally defeated, and in the end, several of his teammates were also eliminated.
Unfortunately, they ultimately couldn't overcome something called the protagonist's halo...
As the competition drew closer, the members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy became increasingly nervous. However, Meng Hongchen's infatuated gaze never left Wang Dong. It's unlikely that anyone else could achieve this effect. The reason is quite simple: Meng Hongchen is a typical senior member of the "appearance association."
At the same time, Su Yu glanced across the city wall and saw Xu Jiujiu, who looked indignant, and Dai Hao, the White Tiger Duke, who was maintaining order.
At this moment, Old Master Xuan sat down on the sidelines with a wine jar and a chicken leg. Clearly, this gentleman was there to keep order.
However, in the current human world, there are very few people who can suppress Elder Xuan.
After the Heavenly Fiend Douluo finished his contradictory statement, urging everyone to go all out while advising them to restrain themselves, the team members from both sides made their appearance.
At the head of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, their captain, Ma Rulong, was leading the way. Right behind him were Xiao Hongchen, and then Meng Hongchen.
Next up was Mika, a level-five Soul Master they had met in the semifinals. The three following behind were also level-five Soul Masters, and the Shrek Academy members could recognize them by their appearances: Xiao Xiafeng, Chen Fei, and Lin Xi. Apart from Meng Hongchen, all the team members were male.
Su Yu didn't have much of a reaction when the seven people appeared. If nothing unexpected happened, he would have to make some changes to his team for this match, because Wang Yan had directly told them to admit defeat, which was absurd. If it weren't for the cheat code and protagonist's halo on their side, they would probably have lost nine times out of ten.
Therefore, Su Yu decided that he still had to step in to salvage the situation. If something went wrong in the later matches, it would be terrible to lose. Su Yu did not agree with Wang Yan's tactics, but now he was the captain and had the support of the whole team, so he had the right to change the tactics.
Just as everyone was about to go on stage, Su Yu slowly said, "I think we need to change our tactics. Big Brother Jiang Nannan and Senior Sister, you two switch with me and Wang Dong. I'm confident we can win this match."
Wang Yan frowned slightly, but things had come to this point. Su Yu was their recognized captain, and since Su Yu was confident, he must have his own plans. However, Wang Yan still didn't want Su Yu to take action. If they lost this battle and Su Yu got injured, the subsequent two-three-three battle strategy could very likely cause Shrek Academy to lose the match.
Thoughts aside, they couldn't change Su Yu's decision. Listening to Su Yu's words, Elder Xuan looked at Su Yu with great interest. "Little Yanzi, it seems this little guy has some kind of trick up his sleeve. You just sit here quietly."
With Elder Xuan speaking, Wang Yan dared not make any further comments and could only sit obediently in the spectator stands.
As the captain, he naturally had to be at the forefront. When Su Yu and Wang Dong went on stage, the people opposite them were somewhat surprised. In the later battles, Wang Dong had hardly appeared. Why would Shrek Academy leave the four-ringed players unused and let two three-ringed players take the stage?
One of the three rings was Su Yu, which the people of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy thought was the right thing to do. However, it was puzzling that Wang Dong was chosen to participate. In terms of strength, Wang Dong's current performance was at most that of a near-fourth ring, which was still somewhat different from a true fourth ring.
Such a lineup is truly unpredictable. Even Ma Rulong on the other side was somewhat bewildered. Had Shrek Academy given up?
As the referee announced the start of the match, Su Yu's team quickly formed their formation under his command: Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng in front, Ling Luochen in the middle, Wang Dong behind Ling Luochen, Su Yu to Ling Luochen's right, and Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei side by side in front.
This bizarre formation left not only the opposing Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy bewildered, but even their own team's instructor, Wang Yan, completely baffled...
As Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield appeared in his hand, Lin Xi on the other side immediately used her soul tool to protect her teammates behind her. However, this was a sitting duck for Su Yu. If the opponent retreated and did not come out, Su Yu had a way to torment them.
Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Displacement is a disgusting soul skill, but this time the focus is not on disgusting people. The key to victory lies with the two Soul Emperors. When necessary, Su Yu can even use their Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Wang Dong on the field.
This match is one we can only win, we can't afford to lose. If we really do what Wang Yan did, we're probably going to lose this time...
Just as Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng were closing the distance to the Sun and Moon team, a large number of light orbs shot out from their camp like peacocks spreading their tails, directly hitting the Shrek team.
Dai Yueheng leaped up, and a large amount of incandescent light appeared. His fourth soul skill, White Tiger Meteor Shower, was activated.
A Soul Emperor's soul skill could easily intercept these orbs of light, so Su Yu wasn't worried about that at all. What he was really worried about was what would happen next. In one battle, Ma Xiaotao had killed two people, which was really going too far...
Xu Sanshi completely blocked the aftershocks of the explosion. Ling Luochen was not idle either. A large amount of ice mist spread across the arena, and the cold air rushed straight to the place where the Sun and Moon Team members were. It was thought that Ling Luochen was just providing interference to pave the way for Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Meteor Shower later.
However, Su Yu instructed Ling Luochen to go all out and not hold back in the slightest.
A large amount of icy mist surged out, beginning to erode the soul guide shield of the Sun and Moon Team. Just as the members of the Sun and Moon Team were about to counterattack, a dazzling fire phoenix soared into the sky amidst a loud phoenix cry. Following the White Tiger Meteor Shower, Ma Xiaotao's strongest soul skill, Phoenix Meteor Shower, followed.
The blazing flames caused the temperature on the arena to rise rapidly, and phoenix meteors, at least five times larger than the White Tiger Meteor, rained down from the sky, not only densely packed but also incredibly powerful. The air above the entire arena became almost completely distorted. The 108 Soul Masters who had set up the formation had to exert all their soul power to maintain their protective shield.
It has to be said that in terms of attack power, Ma Xiaotao is undoubtedly number one. At less than twenty years old, Ma Xiaotao's cultivation is already close to reaching the Soul Saint level. Coupled with the power of the Evil Fire Phoenix, even if she faces a Soul Saint, an ordinary Soul Saint would probably not be a match for Ma Xiaotao.
The collision between the first wave of soul skills and the light orbs of soul tools had already produced a violent impact. When Ma Xiaotao unleashed the Phoenix Meteor Shower, Xu Sanshi had no choice but to stop to block the shockwave of the explosion for everyone.
Just as everyone was being suppressed by Ma Xiaotao, and Ma Xiaotao was about to continue using Phoenix Roaring Strike, Dai Yueheng had already rushed in front of the Sun and Moon Team.
The battle between the two sides was about to break out, and Lin Xi, who was protected by two layers of soul guide shields, managed to withstand Ma Xiaotao's terrifying attack.
The opposing team members weren't idle either; instantly, a large number of soul tools emerged from their bodies, all aimed at Ling Luochen and Su Yu.
But the next instant, Dai Yueheng possessed the Evil Moo White Tiger and slashed a claw at the opponent's protective shield. Once a ranged Soul Master is approached by a powerful offensive Soul Emperor, it is a disaster. Obviously, the opponent also realized the seriousness of the situation.
Wearing heavy soul-guided armor, Mika jumped out of the soul-guided protective shield, a greatsword appeared, and the two huge figures collided fiercely.
boom!
Even Dai Yueheng, who had used the White Tiger Vajra Transformation, was not as big as Mika. His soul-guided heavy armor absorbed a lot of the impact. Under such soul-guided heavy armor, judging from Su Yu's current abilities, only the Super Energy Soul-Guided Cannon could break through such a defense.
However, the opponent gave Su Yu no chance at all. In just one exchange, Ma Rulong set his sights on Su Yu, and a strong silver light instantly filled the entire competition stage.
Seeing this, Su Yu knew things were going to get bad. This thing was almost like a flashbang; if it ran out of power, it would be incredibly ridiculous to start a fight.
Facing the blinding light, Su Yu calmly released his martial spirit, and a huge mirror appeared in front of him, with a black hole-like vortex slowly rotating inside.
The mirror instantly magnified and appeared in front of the three. After a burst of bright light, the three were unaffected because of Su Yu's third soul skill.
However, just as Ma Rulong was about to use other soul tools again, a beam of light rebounded from Su Yu's mirror, and the blinding light instantly blinded the unprepared members of the Sun and Moon Team.
Despite their blindness, they still managed to activate their protective shield instantly, preventing Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi from gaining any advantage.
However, Lin Xi and Mi Jia, who were still fighting with Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng, were in a terrible situation. All four of them lost their sight. But under Su Yu's command, Ma Xiaotao used Phoenix Fire Line to knock Lin Xi out of the arena.
Mika fared even worse, as he was hit by all of Dai Yueheng's White Tiger Meteor Shower, causing his soul tools to disintegrate instantly. If it weren't for Tian Sha Douluo's intervention, he would probably have died from that attack.
Lin Xi and Mika are both seriously injured and eliminated!
Ma Rulong hadn't anticipated this situation either. His only miscalculation was that he hadn't expected Su Yu to be able to return all of his flashbang attacks. Although the flashbang wasn't particularly offensive, its biggest advantage was blinding the opponent...
Fortunately, the flash cannon had no offensive power, which caused Su Yu's Mirror of Illusion to reflect the attack directly, returning it all to Ma Rulong.
As the bright light faded, the Sun and Moon team realized that in just one exchange, they had already lost two members!
What does this mean for Ma Rulong?
It's a disgrace! We haven't even had a full-blown match yet, and we've already had two of our players eliminated!
"Su Yu, do you find these shields troublesome?" At this moment, Electrox from the Eye of Life spoke up.
He was clearly also observing the changes in the outside world. Being inside Su Yu's body, he could naturally sense the changes in Su Yu's spirit.
"The wonders of mental power go far beyond this. Watch closely as I show you how to perfectly utilize your mental power. If you use it skillfully enough, you can find flaws in everything in this world."
At this moment, Su Yu's third eye between his eyebrows slowly opened, but Su Yu had long hair now, covering his forehead.
Even if Huo Yuhao had X-ray vision, it wouldn't be useful, as Elder Yi could completely block Huo's X-ray vision.
In the third eye between the eyebrows, a deathly gray slowly emerged. After Elder Yi chanted a few simple incantations, Su Yu could clearly feel his spiritual power flowing outward. The feeling was very strange. Wherever his spiritual power passed, it was as if he had seen it with his own eyes.
That spiritual energy flowed like water across the soul-guided shield.
"You must understand that everything in this world has flaws; nothing is perfect. Even the god in the sky has a fatal flaw that no one knows about."
That flowing spiritual power instantly pierced a relatively weak spot in the soul power like a sharp sword. Then, a crack appeared in the soul shield that no one noticed, and Su Yu's spiritual power entered the soul shield as well.
At this moment, Su Yu could clearly see the array in their soul tool. Under Ilex's control, that weak spiritual power was like a dagger piercing a vital point. The delicate spiritual power instantly pierced through the core array of Xiao Hongchen's soul tool shield.
In an instant, Xiao Hongchen was exposed to everyone's eyes without any defense. This strange scene made Ma Rulong panic. The soul guide shield produced by Mingde Hall actually shattered!
"Senior Xu, quickly use the Mystic Displacement!"
Su Yu made a decisive move and immediately transmitted his voice to Xu Sanshi through the connected soul tool. Xu Sanshi looked at Xiao Hongchen, who was still in a state of astonishment, and without saying a word, moved him to a spot not far from Ling Luochen.
"Oh no, stop them!"
The Sun Moon Team, which had initially held the initiative, was now clearly on the defensive, with the Shrek Academy team completely stalling their pace. Because of Lin Xi and Mika's elimination, the Sun Moon Team was unable to spare any effort to suppress Shrek Academy's two Soul Emperors.
Moreover, Ling Luochen was providing long-range suppression, and Su Yu's energy-gathering soul-guided cannon was constantly bombarding their soul-guided shield.
Most of their attacks were blocked by Xu Sanshi, and the overall battle situation was developing in a direction unfavorable to them.
Just when they thought victory was assured, a huge purple soul tool descended from the sky, instantly trapping Su Yu, Wang Dong, and Ling Luochen inside.
The entire battlefield was divided in the blink of an eye. Without the suppression of Ling Luochen, Su Yu, and Wang Dong, the four of them had to face the remaining five members of the fully armed Sun Moon Team.
Theoretically, that's how it is, but when the soul tool landed, Su Yu specifically instructed Xu Sanshi to switch Xiao Hongchen with him. The situation inside the level seven soul tool instantly turned into three people ganging up on Xiao Hongchen alone.
