Chapter 158 Two Teams Surrendered One After Another
At night, a strange breath passed by the window.
Su Cheng's expression slightly moved.
He flashed out of the window directly.
Sure enough, Qian Renxue's tall figure was standing silently not far from the corner of the street.
He quickly came close and immediately felt that the other party's breath had changed a lot, much stronger than before.
Obviously, Qian Renxue had successfully absorbed the 100,000-year soul ring.
Not only that, her whole state now seemed very harmonious, without the previous vague incoordination.
"How is the soul?"
Su Cheng asked in a low voice.
This is the issue he is most concerned about at this time.
The strength improvement brought by the soul ring is only secondary. Whether the 100,000-year soul ring can reconcile the internal friction brought by her soul twins is the most critical.
"It has been completely resolved, and there are even some unexpected gains."
Qian Renxue's eyes flickered, and she looked at Su Cheng with a smile.
"What gains?"
Su Cheng was stunned when he heard the words.
To make her so happy, the effect must be extraordinary.
As for what it is, he can't guess it at all, let alone feel it.
As for the soul level, Su Cheng is only slightly better than ordinary people.
This is based on his understanding of martial souls and the bonus brought by his past research on the state of Ah Yin's soul body.
When it comes to the connotation of the soul, let alone the essence, even the basic components cannot be touched.
"You will know in two days, and she has fully awakened."
Qian Renxue did not answer immediately, but changed the subject.
"Well, that's good." Su Cheng didn't care about her words of suspense, and said thoughtfully.
"But this is not a long-term solution. Don't be too happy too early and say something like "completely solved". As your strength increases, the "anchor" needed to fix and reconcile your contradictions must also be continuously strengthened."
After all, the 100,000-year soul ring is only a temporary solution.
Maybe because of the feedback effect it brings, Qian Renxue will become more and more vulnerable to soul dangers as she becomes stronger.
After all, as her cultivation level increases, Qian Renxue's twin souls will definitely become stronger, but the soul rings themselves will not be able to improve, and the soul power in them will be constantly worn out.
This move can be called "drinking poison to quench thirst".
As for alleviating this situation by not practicing anymore, it is also unrealistic, and even a stupid act of throwing the baby out with the bathwater.
Not to mention that Qian Renxue herself is extremely talented, even if she does not practice, her body will spontaneously absorb the soul power scattered in the world to naturally increase her cultivation level.
If she stops here, not only will the road ahead be completely blocked, but her spirit will also be constantly worn out, causing greater damage to her soul.
But no matter what, at least she has overcome the difficulties.
There are still the eighth and ninth soul rings behind. It can be said that there will be no big problems before the peak Douluo realm.
Regarding Su Cheng's warning, Qian Renxue herself looked indifferent and waved her hand gently.
"It's okay. Aren't you still here? Just tell me when you come up with a solution."
After saying that, he took out a soul bone and handed it over, "This is for you."
The soul bone emitted a faint red light. It was the 100,000-year soul bone from Xiao Wu, a left arm bone.
As Qian Renxue's trophy, Bibi Dong had no intention of snatching this soul bone.
What she needed was the soul ring, and the soul bone was actually dispensable.
Bibi Dong herself had clues about other 100,000-year soul beasts, and the death of a 100,000-year soul beast would definitely drop soul bones.
She was very ambitious.
For Bibi Dong, being able to obtain a corresponding soul bone that perfectly matched her own soul ring was the best choice for the future.
Su Cheng glanced at the soul bone, but did not reach out to take it. He shook his head and said, "I don't need it."
He no longer needed to rely on these things to improve his strength and foundation.
Even the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone has been completely dissolved, so there is no need to absorb this new soul bone that is incompatible with his attributes. Adding this kind of foreign object will do him more harm than good.
Qian Renxue ignored his refusal and stuffed it into his hand.
"I have an angel suit, so I don't need this. Besides, there are three soul bones as champion rewards. You can handle this yourself."
This time, she was able to kill Xiao Wu and get the 100,000-year soul ring. It can be said that it was all Su Cheng's credit.
Although she didn't want to be polite to him, she didn't want to take advantage of this, and she didn't want to appear greedy.
Su Cheng was a little surprised when he heard this, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "So confident that you can win the championship? You don't know my strength?"
"Hehe."
Qian Renxue sneered, but did not refute, as if she was disdainful of his words.
Then her face became cold and stared at Su Cheng.
"What's the situation with that woman."
As she said this, she tilted her head slightly to the side.
In the distance, there was a breath hidden at this moment.
Although it was extremely concealed, it was obviously not hidden from the two of them.
Su Cheng then slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
He knew that Qian Renxue came here at this time, obviously not simply to tell him that she had successfully absorbed the spirit ring, or to send a spirit bone.
There was no need to rush to say these things.
The main reason for coming here was probably for Ah Yin's matter.
"she……"
Su Cheng didn't hide anything, and simply described Tang San's life experience, the story of Tang Hao and A Yin, and the process of controlling A Yin by chance.
He also talked about the unexpected incident during the day and how he and the other party parted ways.
After Qian Renxue listened carefully, she looked at him suspiciously.
"I don't think she hates you?"
"Indeed." Su Cheng nodded.
Then he added: "But this is normal. In fact, I didn't do anything to her. I took her soul bone, but also resurrected her. It can be regarded as balancing grudges."
"In this case, let her disappear forever. If you are not willing to do it, I can deal with her for you."
Su Cheng's eyes twitched slightly, "Don't be so murderous. This is not a matter of reluctance. I have made it clear to her that she will leave."
As he spoke, he glanced in that direction in the distance.
"The reason why I'm still here now is probably because I don't know where to go next."
After hearing this, Qian Renxue looked at Su Cheng in silence for a while.
Seeing his calm expression, he nodded slightly hesitantly.
The atmosphere in the room where Shrek Academy was located seemed extremely solemn at this time.
Tang San left the team and Xiao Wu died.
All kinds of bad news happened almost simultaneously, and no one could accept it easily.
What is even more uncomfortable is that they cannot tell or explain their current situation to others.
On the mainland, Haotian Douluo Tang Hao was not only famous for his fame, but also had a reputation for being vicious.
He was the main culprit behind the death of the previous pope.
For ordinary soul masters, the Wuhun Palace has a high status, so Tang Hao, who killed the Pope, naturally became the incarnation of a thug. Even the Haotian Sect was implicated by it and was closed to the public for many years.
As his son, Tang San naturally had to bear this responsibility.
There is nothing to say about Xiao Wu's death.
Soul beasts are the public enemies of mankind. This is a consensus in the soul master world, and the same is true for transformed soul beasts.
Even because the transformed soul beasts themselves are hundred thousand year old soul beasts, their reputation is even worse.
In addition, whether to continue to participate in subsequent competitions is also an extremely serious issue.
In fact, they wanted to participate.
At this time, the team is ranked among the top three, just a short distance away from the championship, but this is only one of the reasons.
The people from Wuhun Palace killed Xiao Wu in public and forced Tang Hao and Tang San away. The two culprits who caused this situation were now in the other two teams. How could they be willing to give up so easily.
Looking back at the Shrek Academy team, one of them, Tang San, was the son of a sinner, and the other one was a transformed soul beast.
As a result, their entire academy has simply become a joke in the soul master world.
And if you can win the championship in the subsequent competition, you will not only be able to slap Wuhundian in the face, but you may also have the opportunity to further change the reputation, which has many benefits.
Yu Xiaogang values reputation, Liu Erlong wants revenge, and Flanders is concerned about the academy. At this time, compared to the team members, the teachers leading the team are more eager to win the championship.
But where do they get the chance to win the championship?
Not to mention hard power, there is now an extremely difficult problem before us.
There are not enough members in their team.
Tomorrow's first round of the top three tournament will be an individual knockout tournament like the promotion tournament, but instead of two teams competing against each other, three teams will participate together.
Although this is not the final battle for the championship, it is also very important. Being able to win not only means entering the top two, but also means being able to wait for work and participate in the final battle on the last day.
The competition method is that the members of the three teams take turns to play, and the order of the players' appearance is determined by drawing lots.
There is no doubt that the one who appears last will have a huge advantage, and can wait for the two in front to fight and then go up to clean up the mess.
But regardless of the luck of the draw, they now only have seven players left, namely Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Tailong, Jingling, Huang Yuan, and Jiangzhu.
Among them, Oscar and Jiangzhu, one is a food-type soul master, and the other is an auxiliary-type soul master, and they cannot participate in single-player combat at all.
How should we deal with five people playing against seven people when their strength is already inferior?
Not to mention that the Wuhun Palace also received a hundred thousand year soul ring and a hundred thousand year soul bone.
Even if the soul ring cannot be absorbed by that soul emperor, what about the soul bones?
You know, a hundred thousand year soul bone possesses two extremely powerful soul bone skills.
Looking at everyone in front of me, they all looked solemn and frowning.
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly said: "I have an idea."
The next day, the same three teams as yesterday lined up again and stood in the white jade square in front of the Pope's Palace.
But this time, the leader of Wuhun Palace has changed back to Qian Renxue.
Su Cheng glanced in the direction of Team Shrek and frowned secretly.
He took the time to meet with Zhu Zhuqing last night. In addition to confirming the other party's situation, he also wanted to persuade the other party to withdraw from the competition. Unexpectedly, she still came for some reason.
Looking at the team members with different expressions in front of him, Bibi Dong looked calm, as if all the changes yesterday had never happened.
"This morning, there will be an individual elimination match for each of your three teams with seven players. Now, you can send out the first player to play."
As she finished speaking, a row of gilded chairs was placed in front of the Pope's Palace.
At Bibi Dong's suggestion, she sat in the middle, with Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Dugu Bo sitting on her left, and the two elders, Ju Douluo Yueguan and Ghost Douluo Guimei, sitting on her right.
Just as the cardinal, who was the referee, was about to step forward, Yu Xiaogang suddenly said loudly: "Please wait for the game to start."
The referee frowned and was about to scold, but was stopped by Bibi Dong.
She looked at Yu Xiaogang and said calmly: "Tell me your reason."
Yu Xiaogang looked at her coldly, "My reason is that Shrek Academy gave up the first half of the finals and voluntarily entered the loser group finals in the afternoon."
Bibi Dong was stunned when she heard this, "Why?"
Yu Xiaogang put his hands behind his back, looked up at the Douluo Hall behind the Pope's Hall with a proud face, and said coldly: "No reason, I think it should be our right to admit defeat."
His voice was calm, but it immediately caused an uproar.
This speech, tone and attitude were simply contradicting the Pope.
The various behaviors of Shrek Academy yesterday and the mixed quality of its members have already made many people doubt the situation of this academy.
As a result, this situation still occurs now. Even if Yu Xiaogang has the elder token in his hand, many viewers frown in their hearts.
However, Bibi Dong didn't care, just nodded lightly, "You are right, this is your right."
Hearing that the other party just calmly revealed it, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
He spoke like that before because this situation reminded him of the series of changes that happened yesterday.
He remembered the grief-stricken expression of his proud disciple.
He remembered Xiao Wu, whose vitality was instantly extinguished.
He even remembered Tang Hao's powerlessness in his sad exit.
He was moved by the scene and spoke back impulsively.
In fact, after he finished speaking just now, he already regretted it in his heart.
If he was deprived of the right to compete because of this, or if the Spirit Hall took the opportunity to punish him or took away the elder token, wouldn't it be a loss?
What he said just now could have been explained in other ways.
Besides, even if Bibi Dong herself didn't care, what would the many soul masters who worshipped the Pope think of what he said?
He was just a soul master less than level 30, and he had no ability to protect himself. How should he deal with it later?
Shrek Academy was already at the center of the storm, and Flanders and Liu Erlong were probably too busy to take care of themselves. Even if he had an elder token to protect himself, was he really safe?
As for admitting defeat, this was a plan they had discussed last night.
In the first round of the competition, with their current strength, they would definitely not have a chance to compete for a place in the winner's group.
It would be better to just give up and wait for the opportunity to fight against the losing team whose soul power was exhausted after the battle in the afternoon, so that the chances of winning would be even greater.
At this time, Su Cheng, who was watching, breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't want to waste time competing with Qian Renxue for the dispensable top two spots. Anyway, tomorrow would be the day to see the real deal, and it would be meaningless to fight a personal battle in advance.
He was ready to speak directly and admit defeat and enter the loser group.
However, at this time, another voice sounded first.
"We also admit defeat."
Su Cheng was shocked and turned his head suddenly. He saw Qian Renxue looking at the Shrek Academy players with a smile, wondering what she was thinking.
Not only him, but even Bibi Dong was stunned for a moment, not understanding what Qian Renxue meant.
The dramatic change caught many people off guard. The Tiandou Royal Academy team led by Su Cheng won without a fight and entered tomorrow's finals directly.
The first half of the finals was over without a single game.
Zhu Zhuqing raised her head at this time and glanced coldly at Qian Renxue opposite her.
Afterwards, he did not stay for long and quickly left with other teachers and teammates to prepare for the loser group match in the afternoon.
