Chapter 212 The Show Begins
With just one strike, Ge Zishu was decisively defeated!
Just as Xiao Xiao was about to retrieve the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron, the referee suddenly appeared in front of Ge Zishu, setting up a protective shield, clearly worried that Xiao Xiao would continue to deliver the finishing blow.
After confirming that Ge Zishu was incapacitated, the referee announced, "Ge Zishu of the Flying Cloud Sect is incapacitated; the Tang Sect wins!"
After hearing the referee announce the result of the match, the Feiyun Sect members hurriedly carried Ge Zishu back.
Ge Zishu's injuries were mostly caused by the forced backlash from her own soul skills. As for the severity of the injuries, it depends on how much soul power she used at the time.
Xiao Xiao was relatively kind-hearted and didn't use too much force, which is why Ge Zishu's injuries weren't serious enough.
Watching Xiao Xiao's wonderful performance, He Caitou in the audience proudly cheered Xiao Xiao's name.
The subsequent matches lost their appeal, as the Feiyun Sect's subsequent competitors were not as strong as Ge Zishu, making it exceptionally easy for Xiao Xiao to fight. However, Xiao Xiao did not continue fighting, and after the three matches, she handed the baton over to Jiang Nannan.
Xiao Xiao's fighting style wasn't particularly flashy, but it was precisely this simple offense and defense that restricted Ge Zishu in many ways. The reason for this was that Xiao Xiao's martial soul was too special. If she encountered an opponent like Jiang Nannan, it would probably take her quite a bit of effort to fight.
Jiang Nannan showed no mercy in the subsequent matches. After three games, she immediately substituted Wang Dong'er.
Wang Dong'er was still dressed as a man because she knew how devastating she would be if she returned to women's clothing. But Wang Dong'er is Wang Dong'er, and her appearance drew cheers from the female audience. She could only shake her head helplessly at this.
Seeing this, Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei couldn't help but laugh out loud. Tang Ya also laughed and said, "Wang Dong is indeed Wang Dong. He's always unexpected yet reasonable. Su Yu really got a good deal..."
"Of course I'll get the better deal, not you guys!"
A familiar voice rang out behind them. Huo Yuhao's eyes widened in surprise, and Bei Bei also looked at the newcomer with astonishment.
"Vice Squad Leader!"
"Su Yu!"
"Su Yu..."
A series of titles were addressed, and Su Yu nodded habitually.
"Weren't you in seclusion? Why are you out now?" Jiang Nannan asked curiously.
Su Yu slowly and deliberately said, "Today is Dong'er's turn to shine. Cultivation is nothing compared to Dong'er."
"Then what about your cultivation? Once you miss that opportunity, who knows when you'll be able to break through level 60 again?" Huo Yuhao was somewhat worried about Su Yu's situation.
Su Yu stepped forward and patted Huo Yuhao on the shoulder, smiling, "Don't worry about me. How did your competition go?"
After being in seclusion for several days, Su Yu also wanted to know how the competition was going. Although he could ask others, it was always better to ask the person in charge directly.
Beibei really wanted to complain about Su Yu, but after thinking about it, she held back. "Actually, it's not too bad. It's just that the Sun and Moon team is a bit tricky. We ran into the academy team once, but to avoid a lose-lose situation, we conceded defeat. The opponents we're facing now aren't difficult. The tough ones are the next round and the quarterfinals. If nothing unexpected happens, we'll most likely encounter the Holy Spirit Cult and the Body Sect, as well as the Sun and Moon team and the academy's teams in the quarterfinals. I don't know about the other teams, but there are a few that are also very strong."
Seeing Bei Bei's face, which was barely suppressing a complaint, Su Yu smiled and said, "Birds always have to fly alone. I know that my absence from this competition has brought you a lot of difficulties. But you must know that you represent not only the Tang Sect, but also the honor of the Shrek Seven Devils. I was able to lead you to victory against strong opponents before, so now you should fight even harder, instead of always relying on me. Bei Bei, Huo Yuhao, you two lack experience. To be fair, you are more suitable to be captains than I am. This stage belongs to you, so I believe in you, and please believe in yourselves."
Looking at the expectant eyes of everyone, Su Yu knew that his departure had indeed made them feel like they had lost their backbone. Who would have thought that the Shrek Seven Devils, who were so prominent in the inner courtyard, were always relying on one person to grow up?
A team needs a spiritual leader, and Shrek Academy's spiritual pillar is Su Yu.
However, fate decreed that Su Yu would not stay at Shrek Academy forever, because he had his family and his own path of cultivation to follow.
"I understand, thank you, Su Yu." Tang Ya mustered her courage and stood in front of Su Yu. "Su Yu, I am very grateful for everything you have done for the Tang Clan. We will not blame you for anything now. You have your reasons, so we believe in you. We also believe in ourselves."
Seeing the determined looks on the faces of the Tang Clan members, Su Yu nodded in satisfaction and then said nothing more.
Following Su Yu's gaze, everyone's attention turned to the arena. Wang Dong'er's fighting style was extremely flamboyant, both in terms of her person and her martial spirit. If the Flying Cloud Sect disciple on the other side hadn't been desperately reminding himself to stay calm, he probably would have been cleaved down by Wang Dong'er's guillotine long ago.
Unfortunately, this young man from the Flying Cloud Sect, who had reached the fourth ring, failed to create a miracle and suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Wang Dong'er. Regardless of the outcome of the match, the excitement of this competition far exceeded the referee's expectations, and everyone knows the reason why.
The match ended with the Tang Clan emerging victorious, while the Flying Cloud Clan, known for their pragmatism, readily conceded defeat.
When Wang Dong'er returned to the Tang Clan's location after the match, there were two more people there.
Laughing at the mortal world, dreaming of the mortal world.
"How come your two homes are here?" Wang Dong'er looked at Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen with confusion, completely unaware of Su Yu standing at the back of the crowd.
Xiao Hongchen sneered, "Don't misunderstand, I'm not here to see you. It's her who's here to see you."
As she spoke, Xiao Hongchen turned around and pointed with her chin at Meng Hongchen, who had a lovesick look on her face.
Before Wang Dong'er could even enter the crowd, Meng Hongchen enthusiastically led her aside and they began chatting about everyday matters.
Xiao Hongchen felt that his younger sister had truly disgraced the Hongchen family. If he hadn't been worried about Meng Hongchen getting into trouble, and if he hadn't wanted Meng Hongchen's affairs to be publicized, he wouldn't have come along.
"Hey you two, it's been a long time." A familiar voice reached Xiao Hongchen's ears, and he turned around with some confusion.
Xiao Hongchen looked in the direction of the sound and saw Su Yu standing quietly in the stands. "Indeed, it's been a long time."
"Su Yu, you're back!" Wang Dong'er heard Su Yu's voice and rushed to Su Yu's side, leaving Meng Hongchen behind.
Su Yu reached out and patted Wang Dong'er on the shoulder, saying, "Just came out of seclusion, and you've made some gains."
…………
"Captain, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen have gone to where the Tang Sect team is. Do you think we should go and join in the fun?" Rachel chuckled, his meaning quite obvious.
Luo Yu didn't say much, but turned to Jing Peng and asked, "Jing Peng, tell me, if you were the captain, how would you handle this?"
"Ah, this, this..." Jing Peng was stunned and didn't react for a moment.
Lu Jiuyu then said, "Actually, it's not that troublesome. Since the two of them went, I think it would be better if we all went. After all, Su Yu, the biggest backbone of the Shrek, or rather, Tang Sect team, isn't here right now."
"Jingpeng, I'm asking you, what are your plans?" Luo Yu looked at Jingpeng quietly, waiting for his answer.
Jingpeng is a steady person, but his personality is also too steady. This kind of steadyness might be a good thing for Lu Jiuyu, but it may not be a good thing for him.
"Let me think about it..." Jing Peng frowned, clearly unsure whether to go or not.
"Stop thinking about it. If you keep thinking about it, it'll be too late. Let's go take a look. Oh, and let's call those three guys too." Luo Yu tapped Jing Peng on the head, thinking to herself that this guy was a blockhead.
"Fang Wei, Sheng Hongyun, Yan Lingshu. You three, stop daydreaming! The captain said it's time to set off." Rachel excitedly called out to the three who were still lost in thought.
Fang Wei rubbed his sleepy eyes, looking groggily at the excited Rachel. "What's the captain up to? Didn't the leader tell us not to act rashly?"
"You don't know anything. Just go when I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you don't get up, I'm going to carry you over here."
Before Fang Wei could get up, Rachel's tall and imposing figure, like a giant bear, pounced on him.
"Rachel, I'm not done with you! Help me..."
Fang Wei was so frightened by Rachel's actions that he scrambled away and fled under Rachel's tyranny, eventually escaping behind Luo Yu. Seeing Fang Wei's disheveled appearance and Rachel's wicked grin, everyone tacitly kept silent.
"Oh..." Yan Lingshu stretched, her light purple dress accentuating her stunning figure. Her eyes were ethereal and pure, and she had a delicate face. Every move she made seemed fragile and pitiful.
"Captain, can't I sleep a little longer? I worked so hard to memorize your plan so I could hear your tactical instructions and get your autograph."
Yan Lingshu looked at Luo Yu with resentment and reluctantly entered the conference room.
Upon hearing this, Lu Jiuyu curled his lips and said, "Who doesn't know that you, Yan Lingshu, are notoriously lazy? You can only believe half of what you say. I dare say that you didn't just memorize the captain's plan; you spent the whole night looking at the captain's autographed photo."
At this point, Lu Jiuyu felt that he should condemn this gluttonous, lazy, and infatuated good-for-nothing even more severely.
Heavily in debt and the "forever" series.
I'll try to maintain daily updates, but I've been really busy lately, please forgive me...
