Chapter 290 Sun and Moon vs. True Form
As the semifinals draw ceremony approached, the atmosphere within the Shrek team became increasingly tense.
The teams that advanced to the semifinals, besides Shrek Team, are Sun Moon Team, Body Team, and Mingyu Sect Team. Considering that this is Sun Moon Team's home ground, they will definitely arrange the weaker Mingyu Sect Team as their opponent, while the stronger Body Team will be arranged for Shrek Team.
This way, they can conserve their energy while maximizing the wear and tear on their team. Ultimately, whether Shrek or the main body team advances to the finals, their chances of winning will be at their highest.
Beibei and the others are mentally prepared to face off against the BenZhen team in the semifinals draw.
In reality—
"In the upper bracket of the semifinals, the Sun Moon Team will face off against the Body Team!" As the Unbreakable Douluo Zheng Zhan loudly announced the draw results, the Shrek Team members, who had been on high alert, immediately turned into clowns.
Their next reaction was ————
"what?"
"Isn't it Shrek Academy playing against the Body Sect?" Bei Bei and the others were completely bewildered. Even after Zheng Zhan announced the result of the second half of the match between Shrek Academy and Mingyu Sect, they still couldn't quite believe it.
What's going on?
Did the Sun Moon Empire draw the wrong lot when setting up this scheme?
Everyone was overjoyed. This way, they could maintain their team's condition and avoid a head-on battle with the powerful main team, greatly increasing their chances of winning the championship!
"Ha, I laugh at the Sun and Moon team's lack of strategy, and at the Red Dust's lack of wisdom!" Dai Huabin's lips curled into a sneer, "They could have drawn a more favorable lot, but instead they put on this laughable spectacle!"
"It's just a pity that we couldn't fight against the Body Sect. I really wanted to slap that despicable traitor in the face a couple of times myself."
However, in reality, what they thought was always just what they thought.
Aside from the fact that during the knockout and group stages, the Sun Moon Empire organizers intentionally prevent stronger teams from facing each other early on, thus eliminating them and reducing the entertainment value of the matches, the draw for the Round of 16 has been completely random from the very beginning.
This decision was even made by Jing Hongchen himself, leaving no room for others to question it.
Not only Lin Nuo is confident in this year's Sun and Moon team, but Jing Hongchen is too. He believes that no matter who stands in their way, they will only be crushed in the end.
No one can stop us from winning the championship!
While it's certainly good to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out, once you have the power to make a decisive move, those off-field tactics become dispensable.
That's why the Shrek team and the Haotian team were matched up early, because the draw was completely random; otherwise, the Mingyu Sect team wouldn't have had the strength to enter the top four.
In this version where numerical monsters and mechanic monsters abound, how can Mingyu Sect, which doesn't even have a Soul Saint, possibly make it into the top four?
Nothing more than good luck!
Compared to the Shrek team, who were single-mindedly focused on winning the championship, Long Aotian was filled with nothing but surging fighting spirit.
So what if he drew the Sun and Moon Team? Others may be wary of Xiao Hongchen's 100,000-year spirit ring, but Long Aotian is not afraid. Although he does not have a 100,000-year spirit ring, his seventh spirit ring is 80,000 years old, which is not far from 100,000 years.
Moreover, Xiao Hongchen's first six spirit rings were all unremarkable, while Long Aotian's second and fourth spirit rings were absorbed from levels above his own.
That strange armor was indeed powerful, but a Soul Master's power is ultimately only himself. He has the amplification of the strange armor, but I, Long Aotian, also have the realm of oneness with heaven and man!
He truly lives up to his imposing name; in this era where numerical superiority is rampant, he is one of them.
On the day the competition began, Long Aotian's fighting spirit finally reached its peak.
On the arena, the seven members of the Sun and Moon Team and the seven members of the Body Team faced each other across the distance, and the air was thick with tension. They paid no attention to the Shrek Clown gloating below the arena; all they cared about was the thrill of the battle.
"You are very strong," Long Aotian said in a deep voice.
"You're not bad either." Xiao Hongchen smiled slightly, his white hair moving without wind, and his heterochromatic eyes, one green and one blue, shone with bright confidence.
"Before this team battle begins, I'd like to have a match with you first." A smile appeared on Long Aotian's usually expressionless face, and his soul power began to surge. "If it's a normal battle, our individual condition will inevitably decline after the team battle, which is not what I want."
"What I want is to fight you, who is also at his peak, in my best form! Among my peers, there are few who can catch my eye, but you are worth my all-out effort!"
Xiao Hongchen raised an eyebrow and glanced at Meng Hongchen beside him.
After meeting her older brother's gaze, she nodded slightly. She could tell that Xiao Hongchen also wanted to have this fight, so she naturally had no reason to refuse.
Anyway, with her backing them up, even if Xiao Hongchen makes a huge mistake, the Sun and Moon team will still be the ones to win in the end.
It's rare for him to be so willful in this world, so let's just let him be.
So, Meng Hongchen led Qingdi and the others to the edge of the arena and stood there calmly.
Seeing this, Vina on the opposite side also led the rest of her team to retreat, handing the arena over to Long Aotian and Xiao Hongchen.
Without the referee's announcement, the battle was about to begin.
Seven spirit rings rose on each of the two. Xiao Hongchen was surrounded by a magnificent configuration of two yellow, two purple, two black, and one red spirit rings, with a three-legged golden toad phantom behind him poised to strike. Long Aotian also had seven spirit rings, one yellow, two purple, and four black. Although he did not have a red 100,000-year spirit ring, this configuration was still in a class of its own, which explained why he was confident in not being afraid of Xiao Hongchen's 100,000-year spirit ring.
"Come on, let's fight!" Long Aotian laughed heartily, and his body instantly shone with a dazzling silver light.
He treated Xiao Hongchen with the utmost caution, and from the very beginning, he used the silver-level second awakening of his original martial soul.
If we're going to fight to the death, then we must do our utmost to respect our opponent!
"Bring it on!" Xiao Hongchen was equally spirited. He stomped his right leg on the ground, and a dazzling golden light immediately shone from his leg bone. His aura also rose steadily.
The boost from the second awakening of the main body's martial soul is indeed huge, but the boost from the 100,000-year-old soul bone is equally impressive!
Without using any fancy tricks, the two relied on their powerful bodies and huge amplification to engage in the most primitive and visually impactful close-quarters combat on the ring, punch by punch.
The two started fighting right away.
Zheng Zhan: ————
He felt that his role as referee was somewhat superfluous.
