章 600: Chapter 42 I Don't Care, I Just Want to Win_1
After Qin Xiao silently muttered to himself, it had a considerable effect.
Indeed, that feeling of depression lessened.
Then, he felt like continuing to watch.
In the middle of the team stood a petite girl with a youthful appearance.
Though she couldn't be considered strikingly beautiful, there was something tranquil about her.
It was as if she was the girl next door.
"It seems that she must be Xiao Xiao," Qin Xiao identified the girl.
Behind her was a tall and burly young man.
Xiao Xiao's height didn't even reach the young man's shoulders.
Of course, what was distinctive was the young man's big bald head.
Without a doubt, he was He Caitou.
At the end of the Shrek Academy's lineup was a languid young man.
He had a delicate face, fair skin, and a pair of large eyes that were very special, faintly pink and blue in color.
And his hair color was also the same as his eyes.
"Wang Dong!"
Qin Xiao's gaze flickered.
If not for his own meddling, Huo Yuhao would not have died.
If Huo Yuhao were still alive, his relationship with Wang Dong would have been ironclad, right?
The leash of the Tang God-King was about to be placed around Huo Yuhao's neck.
However, the wheel of fate did not travel the same rut, nor did it follow the same trajectory.
Qin Xiao suddenly became curious.
What kind of mood was the Tang God-King in now?
Surprised or not, unexpected or expected?
At this time,
Wang Dong also seemed to sense something.
She turned her head towards where Qin Xiao was.
When their eyes met, she couldn't help but mutter under her breath, "Weirdo!"
Conversely, Qin Xiao nonchalantly continued to look at the others.
Wait a minute.
Apart from these seven people, Shrek had no one else!
"Where are the others?"
"They couldn't all be dead, could they?"
Qin Xiao didn't know what had happened but was greatly shocked.
It must be said.
It seemed.
As for the idea that Shrek wanted to hold back and play their trump cards later, Qin Xiao did not believe it.
After all, this was the Continental Soul Master Tournament.
The other academies brought out their elite students; none were too weak.
If they really relied on Wang Dong, Dai Huabin, Xiao Xiao, He Caitou, Beibei, Jiang Nannan, Xu Sanshi, and the other seven, let alone the top four, even reaching the top sixteen would be questionable.
If they were unlucky and faced a team with an average strength of Soul Ancestor, the seven of them might well be eliminated.
The starting line would be their finish line.
Shrek couldn't be that foolish, could they?
So, the current situation was not because Shrek had some strategy; it was because Shrek had no other choice.
...
At the same time,
Apart from Qin Xiao, atop the city walls beside the Star Luo Emperor Xu Jiawei was a remarkable-looking, imposing man whose gaze also fell on the Shrek squad.
He was none other than Duke Baihu Dai Hao, who had rushed back to Xingluo City to watch the Soul Master competition after several days on the road.
Soon, he spotted a young man in the Shrek team who bore a five-to-six resemblance to himself.
At the same time, he felt a familiar pull in his heart.
Only those connected by blood would feel such a sensation.
"Is that young man Dai Yueheng?" Dai Hao thought of his eldest son immediately.
But soon, he felt that couldn't be right.
"Dai Yueheng should be a bit older than him; that's not Dai Yueheng. If I'm not wrong, that should be Dai Huabin," he concluded, settling on the identity of the other.
Not the eldest son but the second, Dai Hao immediately was certain.
"Duke, what are you muttering about?" Xu Jiawei teased, noticing Dai Hao's flickering eyes.
"Your Majesty, to be honest, I'm looking for my two good-for-nothing sons," Dai Hao responded, bowing with a fist.
Two good-for-nothing sons...
Xu Jiawei's eyes flickered.
For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
He hadn't pre-warned Dai Hao about Dai Yueheng.
First, he thought that as the issue involved Shrek, it should be Shrek's responsibility to inform Dai Hao.
Second, he didn't want to take the brunt of Dai Hao's wrath on behalf of Shrek.
"Your Majesty, Shrek should have fourteen members, right? Why are there only seven left now?" Dai Hao asked, voicing his confusion, "Although these children look extraordinary, they still seem a bit young; they don't quite look like the main team."
"I heard that the main team members of Shrek encountered some problems before the competition..." Xu Jiawei said lightly.
Once again, that was someone else's problem, not his. Go ask Shrek.
Dai Hao understood the difference between emperor and subject.
Though he had many questions in his heart, he did not voice them further.
Just then,
As everyone finished speaking, the announcer declared, "Now, let's welcome His Majesty with warm applause to give a speech."
Upon the conclusion of the announcer's words came the thunderous sound of applause and cheers.
In this joyful atmosphere, Xu Jiawei declared loudly, "I announce that the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament officially begins!"
With those words, the excitement reached its zenith.
Seizing the moment, the host took the microphone and immediately began to read the rules of the competition, "According to the rules of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, based on principles of fairness and justice. The first round of this Soul Master Tournament will be elimination matches.
There are one hundred and thirty-three Advanced Soul Master Academies and Advanced Soul Guidance Master Academies participating in this competition. After drawing lots, there will be sixty-six matches. The victors will advance to the next round, and for the defeated... unfortunately, that will be the end of their journey in this Soul Master Tournament."
