Huo Yuhao laughed and said, Nothing. Someone is just experiencing seizures.

You are the one having seizures. Wang Dong replied in fury. He chased after Huo Yuhao, but Huo Yuhao did not run away this time. After he was caught, he immediately straightened his look and said, Stop playing, were about to compete soon. Remaining calm will help us keep ourselves in the best condition.

You coming up with this trick again. Wang Dong tugged his ears, and Huo Yuhao screamed in pain. Fortunately, everyone else came out from their rooms at this moment, and gathered together to leave the hotel. Huo Yuhao managed to avert a crisis just like that.

However, there were more coincidences today. When they reached the staircase, the members of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy came out of their room at the same time. Both teams descended the staircase together.

Today, Elder Ma wasnt the one leading the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy . He smiled and nodded towards Wang Yan. Wang Yan returned the formality. But the students of both academies were not so cordial towards one another.

Xiao Hongchen spotted Huo Yuhao almost immediately, and his face flashed with the smile of a victor. He smiled, Twin martial souls. You are brilliant!

Although Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao were disturbing each other earlier, Wang Dong stood up for Huo Yuhao without any hesitation at this point and said sarcastically, Uncle, who are you?

Un uncle? Xiao Hongchen opened his eyes wide as he looked at Wang Dong. He pointed to his nose and said, Are you calling me?

Wang Dong seemed innocent and unaffected as he said, Of course I am! Uncle.

Xiao Hongchen was not even 15 years old. Although he often seemed very arrogant, he was not that old. The short moustache above his lips was a symbol of his youth. But now, Wang Dong made it seemed like it was a symbol of a middle-aged man.

Am, am I so old? Xiao Hongchen was speechless as he stared wide-eyed at Wang Dong.

Wang Dong was very serious as he nodded his head and said, Youre not that old. You must be the teacher of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, uncle.

Stop calling me uncle. Xiao Hongchen felt as if he was going to go berserk. Normally, he was one who liked to flaunt himself, such that no one apart from his sister Meng Hongchen was willing to help him. Instead, they wanted to laugh.

Meng Hongchen was annoyed as she said, Little fellow, take a careful look. My brother is only 14 years old; he has not even reached 15 years. He is no uncle.

Wang Dong turned to Meng Hongchen, and the look in his eyes suddenly changed. It was a weird look that carried 30% admiration, 60% attachment and 10% yearning. Elder sister, you are a ravishing beauty!

Meng Hongchen was stunned as he said that. It was important to note that when Wang Dong had first entered the academy, he caught the eyes of almost the entire batch of young girls, including those from his class. He had charming, big pinkish-blue eyes, and pinkish-blue short hair that covered his forehead. His skin was tender and white, while his delicate face had a pink complexion. To every girl, he was like a lady-killer.

Although Meng Hongchen was older than Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao, it was only by a year. Looking at this young man who was around the same height as her and so attractive too, Meng Hongchens face blushed as she was complimented. She muttered, You are very handsome too.

Wang Dong smiled and said, So this uncle is your elder brother! Is he your biological brother? Why do the both of you look so dissimilar? Although the both of you come from the same parents, the gap in looks is too stark.

Rascal, do you want to get beaten up? Xiao Hongchen could not tolerate it any further. Not only did Wang Dong call him old, he even implied that he was ugly. He could not bear it any further!

Elder brother, why are you so fierce? Meng Hongchen looked at the frantic Wang Dong and could not help but pull her brother away.

Meng, are you for real? Xiao Hongchen was stunned as he looked at his own sister. Right now, Wang Dong had already shot him a provocative look before leaving the hotel with Huo Yuhao quickly. As he walked, he waved goodbye to Meng Hongchen.

Wang Dong, youre good! Huo Yuhao was shocked as he said, I didnt expect that you were capable of picking up girls too.

Wang Dong snorted and said, You dont know about this, but many young ladies have fallen in love with me. There are many ways to pick up girls, but its a pity that

Whats there to pity? Huo Yuhao asked casually.

Wang Dong glared at him and said, Nothing. Huo Yuhao, do you know what the highest level of picking up girls is?

Huo Yuhao shook his head ignorantly.

Wang Dong replied seriously, Its to make them chase you on their own! Haha.

Bei Bei, who was walking in front, had been noticing all the movements behind him. He could not help but laugh, and shook his head as he said, These little fellows are really active!

Xu Sanshi was beside him, and he said softly, I think Wang Dong is very great! Seems like I should learn from him.

Bei Bei looked at him disdainfully and answered, What nonsense do you want to learn? His methods of picking up girls are build on his looks. Do you have his looks? If you were half as handsome as I am, you wouldnt be in this state.

You are the nonsensical one. Xu Sanshi retorted. I cant pick up girls because aiyo, who kicked my butt? When he turned around and saw Jiang Nannans infuriated look, he became honest, and slapped himself. He tried to appease her, I wont say. Rest assured that I wont tell anyone.

Jiang Nannan ignored him, and quickened her steps to overtake him.

The situation was rather weird now. The members of Shrek Academy were walking in front, whereas those of the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy followed behind them. Many of the champions and runners-up of recent tournaments streamed into Star Luo Plaza.

Perhaps the Star Luo Empire had allowed more spectators in, as the Star Luo Plaza seemed to have a larger crowd than usual. People were packed in extremely tightly. As heads bobbed up and down, that was all the majority of people were able to see.

The resting area for the tournament felt very empty now. Most of the teams had been eliminated, and the 16 teams that remained were the representatives of the top academies on the continent. Today, 4 matches would be held. Tomorrow, another 4 matches would be held. After that, there would be 2 more days of individual competition against the same opponents. When all 4 days of competition had ended, the round of 16 would conclude, and the 8 finalists would be decided. After each stage of the tournament, there would be 1 rest day. Following that, the tournament would continue.

Both Shrek Academy and the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy would feature in todays 4 rounds, but the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academys match was in the afternoon, and they did not have to come in the morning. However, they still came to watch how Shrek Academy would perform against the 5 soul kings of the Dou Ling Imperial Soul Academy.

After settling down in the resting area, Wang Dong did not forget to smile at both Xiao Hongchen and his sister. Xiao Hongchen felt that he was obviously being provocative. But to Meng Hongchen, Wang Dongs bright and beautiful smile made her heart beat faster.

Huo Yuhao tugged at Wang Dongs arm and said, Stop playing. Be careful of going overboard.

Wang Dong groaned and said, What? Are you jealous? Are you interested in that girl?

Huo Yuhao answered him softly, Stop harboring dirty thoughts, will you?

Wang Dong laughed coldly and said, I wonder whos the one with all the dirty thoughts. Alright, I wont bother you anymore. Ill get ready to fight. The elimination rounds would be held across 2 days, and today was the team competition. The victor of the team competition could be said to be one foot into the quarterfinals of the tournament. The individual elimination rounds would be held the next day.

Wang Yan was serious as he stood in front of everyone. Act according to our strategy. The Dou Ling Imperial Soul Academy must have their reasons for intentionally losing first place in the qualifier round, or they must have some special preparations. This round is critical to both parties. Hence, we must not give them any shred of opportunity.

As he saw Ma Xiaotaos look of disapproval, Wang Yan said in a low voice, Dont forget what the consequences were when we were careless in front of the Envoy of the Death God. All these years, Shrek Academy has been the champion of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Dueling Tournament. However, we have also become everyones target for that same reason. I think its fair to say that every participating academy will have done their research on us. Following the development of soul tools, there are more and more strategies now. Do not underestimate our opponents. Whoever is not interested in carrying out my strategy can forget about competing in the next round.

Upon remembering the Envoy of the Death God that had heavily hurt the official team members, everyone felt a chill in their hearts. Ma Xiaotao looked up to Wang Yan. Although she was a little unconvinced, she was less scornful than before.

As the competition drew closer to its end, the atmosphere also became more and more intense.

This was an elimination round. Furthermore, it was the round of 16 elimination stage. If defeated, it would mean elimination from the tournament. For every round won, ones ranking would increase. Undoubtedly, all the academies that participated in this tournament would give their all under such a circumstance.

The more they watched the tournament, the more the spectators appreciated it. The most intense battle was about to start. How could they not be eager to watch? There appeared to be more spectators than usual in Star Luo Plaza today. They managed to squeeze their way in through different forms of connections and through different channels, as they wanted to see this exciting duel! Especially since Shrek Academy was competing in the morning, and their opponent had taken second place in the round-robin stage of the tournament. This attracted more attention than usual.

The round of 16 to qualify for the quarterfinals will now begin. The first match will be between Shrek Academy and the Dou Ling Imperial Soul Academy. Competing members, please enter the waiting area to prepare for the match.
