What happened with Shi Nian was like a small interlude.
Aside from Ye Fan himself, no one else felt that anything had changed.
In the preliminary rounds,
after the tenth round ended,
the various teams participating in the Heaven Dou City preliminaries had clearly pulled apart from one another.
Shrek Academy, with an impressive record of ten wins in ten battles,
stood firmly in first place without any suspense.
Holding the same record were several other teams as well—
namely, the four academies among the Five Element Academies, excluding Elephant Armored Academy.
What was strange was that,
aside from encountering Elephant Armored Academy at the very beginning,
Shrek Academy did not meet any other Five Element Academy teams again.
Elephant Armored Academy, on the other hand, ran into the remaining four academies one after another,
and without exception, suffered defeat every single time. Their defense seemed to have lost all effectiveness.
At this point,
Shrek Academy and the other four element academies occupied the top five positions in the preliminaries,
all with undefeated records.
Elephant Armored Academy's situation, however, was extremely miserable—
ten matches, five wins and five losses,
their ranking hovering only around the middle.
Not only did Elephant Armored Academy itself fail to anticipate this outcome,
even the organizers of the tournament had not expected such a result.
This completely widened the gap between the teams in the preliminaries,
with the five teams of the first tier pulling far ahead.
However, the upcoming matches would no longer be easy.
In the eleventh round, Shrek Academy's opponent
was one of the Five Element Academies—
Blazing Fire Academy.
A powerful team composed entirely of fire-attribute soul masters.
In this round, the battle between Shrek Academy and Blazing Fire Academy—both among the top five—undoubtedly became the biggest highlight, and as expected, they were arranged on the central arena.
Before the match even began, the stands were already buzzing with excitement. At least one-third of the spectators were wearing green uniforms symbolizing Shrek Academy.
Although the Five Element Academies were equally strong,
Shrek Academy's grassroots background made it easier for the audience to resonate with them.
Especially their bizarre uniforms, which had already sparked a wave of green throughout Heaven Dou City.
Even though it was still far from enrollment season, Shrek Academy had already received application forms pouring in like snowflakes. This clearly showed just how much fame the Shrek team had brought to the academy.
Flender, in particular, was earning a fortune and feeling immensely satisfied.
"First match, central arena—Shrek Academy versus Blazing Fire Academy."
The host loudly announced the names of the teams entering the arena. Both sides strode in with heads held high.
In an instant, the entire stands erupted like a stormy sea, cheers rising one after another. There were supporters of Blazing Fire Academy, but far more were cheering for Shrek Academy.
Shrek Academy had already defeated one of the Five Element Academies. If they could defeat Blazing Fire Academy as well, their status would undoubtedly rise another level. All spectators were eagerly awaiting this moment.
Facing the powerful Blazing Fire Academy,
Ye Fan stepped onto the field without hesitation.
To be honest, if Ye Fan did not participate, there would be absolutely no chance of victory.
Dai Mubai walked at the front,
with Ye Fan and Xiao Wu following at his sides,
and behind them came Tailong, Jing Ling, Huang Yuan, and Jiangzhu.
The green uniforms no longer only bore the original "wash more, stay healthier" advertisement—
many additional logos had appeared.
Perhaps because the advertising effect was outstanding,
Flender had already secured more than a dozen sponsorships for the uniforms.
The outfits looked even flashier and more ridiculous,
but Shrek Academy's profits had also grown significantly.
The seven members of Blazing Fire Academy all looked about the same age,
around their early twenties.
The seven formed a triangular formation,
sharp and imposing, brimming with momentum.
Walking at the very front was a man of average build with an ordinary appearance.
His eyes flickered with blazing light, his shoulders were broad,
and his gold-and-red uniform set off his not-so-handsome face, giving him an imposing aura.
This man was the captain of the Blazing Fire Academy team—Huo Wushuang.
A level forty-two assault-type battle soul master.
His martial soul was somewhat similar to Liu Erlong's—a fire dragon.
However, Liu Erlong's fire dragon leaned more toward yin fire,
while his was a single-horned fire tyrant dragon, completely focused on explosive power.
Among the known soul masters in this year's preliminaries,
he was recognized as one of the strongest frontal fighters,
and without question the main attacker of Blazing Fire Academy.
The seven Blazing Fire Academy members stood close together.
Behind Huo Wushuang was another assault-type soul master at level thirty-eight, with no particularly outstanding traits.
According to the information, his martial soul was a fire leopard.
Further back were two people—two cold-faced young men who looked exactly alike: a pair of twins.
One was named Huo Yun, the other Huo Yu. Their martial souls were fire cranes.
Both had soul power at level thirty-nine, just one step away from level forty.
They were the team's two agility-type attackers.
The last three were two men and one woman.
The two male soul masters were extremely tall and burly, with fierce expressions.
Judging by appearance alone, anyone would mistake them for assault-type soul masters.
In reality, however, they were support-type soul masters—
though their support abilities carried a certain degree of offensive power.
If the opponent were not particularly strong,
it would be impossible to see what their support traits were.
Their martial souls were also astonishingly identical: both were fire sparks.
Yes—fire sparks, a rather peculiar martial soul.
Standing between the two men,
and also the only female participant on the Blazing Fire Academy team,
was an extremely beautiful young woman.
The gold-and-red uniform fit her perfectly,
paired with dark red long hair.
She herself was like a flame capable of melting any man, irresistibly eye-catching.
Although she was the only woman in Blazing Fire Academy,
she was also the tallest among the seven,
with an exceptionally well-proportioned figure.
Standing at the center of the team,
she always wore a faint smile, with a subtle layer of red light flowing around her body.
If one were to assume during battle that she was the weakest point of Blazing Fire Academy,
they would surely die miserably.
Because this girl was, aside from Captain Huo Wushuang,
the other soul master above level forty on the team—
and in fact, the highest-level soul master on the entire team.
A level forty-three control-type battle soul master—Huo Wu.
She was the true soul of the team, and also the vice-captain.
Her martial soul was herself—a shadow based on her own body: Fire Shadow.
Ye Fan's gaze landed on Huo Wu.
The most troublesome member of Blazing Fire Academy was precisely Huo Wu.
Huo Wu was undeniably beautiful, on the same level as Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong.
Moreover, she possessed a ring-fusion skill, allowing her to greatly amplify the power of her soul skills.
Even Tang San in the original storyline had suffered quite a bit at her hands.
