"Uh..."
Feng Xiaotian was momentarily speechless, turning his gaze to Huo Wu.
"Alright, Rongrong."
Ye Qiu took Ning Rongrong's small hand and pulled her slightly back.
He looked up at Huo Wu.
"Since that's the case, Huo Wu, then you should get straight to the point."
"Okay!"
Huo Wu stared intently at Ye Qiu.
She pointed and said,
"Then I'll get straight to the point. We hope that it will still be you who sends us off the stage!"
"Hmm?"
Ye Qiu looked at her in confusion, as did Feng Xiaotian.
According to their teams,
even against Xiao Wu, they could at least wear her down with a series of attacks.
If Ye Qiu were to enter the arena,
wouldn't they be wiped out in a seven-on-one battle?!
Xiao Wu gave Huo Wu a strange look, guessing,
"You woman, do you have masochistic tendencies?"
"Don't talk nonsense! I don't have that kind of disgusting fetish!"
Huo Wu retorted, not giving an inch.
"Then what is it for?"
Ye Qiu ignored their argument and asked directly. Huo Wu
, hands on her hips, her eyes showing a hint of defiance, explained, "Because we know very well that no matter how we arrange our tactics, we have no chance of winning against you. Since we're going to lose anyway, why can't we choose to lose to the strongest person?!"
After hearing Huo Wu's words, Feng Xiaotian suddenly felt that it made sense.
Moreover, he really wanted to have another match with Ye Qiu.
A fair and pure one-on-one.
To see exactly where the difference between him and Ye Qiu lay!
Thinking of this, Feng Xiaotian immediately perked up and chimed in,
"That's right, Ye Qiu, this is what we came to talk to you about. I hope to have another match with you. Please use your full strength to let me know just how big the gap between us is!"
"...?"
Hearing Feng Xiaotian's request, Ye Qiu looked surprised and tilted his head to ask,
"Are you sure? You haven't forgotten those big guys from Elephant Armor Academy, have you? If I didn't want to fight you, I could have just given you a look."
"Uh..."
Feng Xiaotian's expression stiffened slightly.
Then, with a smirk, she said, "I believe you wouldn't be so cruel, would you?"
Huo Wu looked at the spineless Feng Xiaotian, suppressing the urge to kick him away. She
stepped forward and affirmed, "No matter what, I still want to fight you! You can use whatever you want."
Huo Wu stared intently at Ye Qiu.
She wanted to see what Ye Qiu was still hiding!
"Me too!"
Huo Wushuang suddenly stepped forward. He hadn't gained any advantage in his previous head-on clash with Ye Qiu, which had made him doubt himself for a while.
Suddenly ,
the Thunder Academy team walked over from the side.
Yu Tianxin's voice rang out.
"We're the same. Ye Qiu lost to you, the strongest one, so it doesn't matter! Anyway, we already have those fat pigs from Elephant Armor Academy as a benchmark."
Seeing the arrival of the Thunder Academy team,
before Ye Qiu could speak, Liu Erlong couldn't hold back anymore.
Narrowing her eyes, she said coldly,
"Yu Tianxin! Why are you joining in the fun?! Believe me or not, I'll deal with you!"
"..."
Liu Erlong's words startled Yu Tianxin, who shrank back.
He quickly begged for mercy, "Auntie, this wasn't my idea, it was my brothers' idea. You know, being a captain often means you don't have a choice." He
chuckled
, his knuckles cracking as he clenched his fists.
"Not a choice? You're going against the Heavenly Gang! He's yours!"
"Auntie!"
Yu Tianxin quickly interrupted Liu Erlong, otherwise he would feel ashamed!
His uncle was even younger than him!
Behind Yu Tianxin, Lei Dong, Lei Tian, and the others were suppressing their laughter.
Of course, they wouldn't make a sound.
After all, they felt embarrassed when their captain was ridiculed.
Xiao Wu and the others were also suppressing their laughter.
After all, given the current situation, wouldn't Yu Tianxin have to call them auntie too?

Although Liu Erlong didn't say anything more under Yu Tianxin's pleading gaze,
Huo Wu and the others still looked at Yu Tianxin strangely, making him very uncomfortable.
Just then, Tianshui Academy also walked over,
attracting everyone's attention.
Shui Bing'er quietly looked at Ye Qiu.
"I think Huo Wu's suggestion is good. Ye Qiu, I also want to have another one-on-one soul battle with you."
"Phew~"
Yu Tianxin breathed a sigh of relief.
The four elemental academies surrounded Ye Qiu and the others.
"..."
Ye Qiu helplessly rubbed his forehead.
He lowered his eyes and said,
"Alright, then I'll go along with you. I hope you won't regret your decision later." As
soon as he finished speaking,
Ye Qiu suddenly raised his head.
Bloodlust flashed in his eyes!
Whoosh!
Everyone around him was stunned, their eyes glazed over.
"Heh,"
Ye Qiu turned back and smiled at Liu Erlong and the others.
"Let's go."
"Brother, what happened to them?"
"Just a little illusion."
Ye Qiu gently flicked Xiao Lan's nose, pulled her along, and led the girls away slowly.
"Illusion."
Hen Qiutian looked back at the group of members from the four elemental academies, his heart filled with shock.
Until Ye Qiu and the others disappeared from the large training ground.
Feng Xiaotian was the first to break free from the illusion, looking at the stunned crowd around him.
He was covered in cold sweat.
Huo Wu, Shui Bing'er, and the others looked at each other, their eyes filled with disbelief.
"Is it too late for us to regret it now?"
Yu Tianxin twitched the corners of her mouth, she should have known better than to come and join in the fun.
Now look what happened.
Not only did she get a bad reputation in her aunt's heart, but she would also be humiliated and crushed by her uncle in a few days.
"Hmph, we just weren't paying attention, during the competition... just don't look into his eyes."
Huo Wu forced herself to stay calm, clenching her delicate fists.
"That's the only way, such an illusion can't be everywhere."
Shui Bing'er's eyes were full of solemnity.
"Ah, I should have told Ye Qiu sooner!"
Shui Yue'er sighed softly.
Qiu Ruoshui rolled her eyes helplessly.
"Seventh girl, won't you have another chance tomorrow? The man you've got your eye on is a bit outrageous."
...
Back at the camp.
Ye Qiu didn't say much to Liu Erlong and the others.
They all returned to their barracks, quietly waiting for tomorrow's competition.
Ye Qiu lay between Xiao Wu and Liu Erlong.
Xiao Wu and Liu Erlong nestled against Ye Qiu's chest, occasionally exchanging glances, their faces flushing. They
could only close their eyes and quietly keep Ye Qiu company.
With others around,
they were too embarrassed to do anything funny.
The night passed uneventfully.
The pace of the qualifying rounds was much faster than the preliminary rounds.
There were no ordinary spectators; all that mattered was the result.
Removing the tedious process and the noise and cheers of the audience allowed the Soul Masters to better demonstrate their true abilities.
