Chapter 724 Meng Yiran vs. Xiao Wu
The game progressed quickly, with the sixth match following immediately.
Between Soul Masters, once a gap in strength appears, victory or defeat often hinges on a single moment. Whoever has a higher Martial Soul grade, stronger Soul Skills, and higher Soul Power level can easily defeat their opponent.
Unless they possess abilities such as self-created soul skills, unique secret techniques, or soul bone skills that can further enhance their combat power, which are extremely rare, perhaps only one in a thousand or hundreds of soul masters.
The sixth match was also between two teams from the five kingdoms and the duchy region.
However, compared to the previous five matches, this match was not very interesting. Both teams were not strong overall and were at the bottom of the fifteen teams that participated in the qualifying rounds.
Therefore, it makes viewers somewhat uninterested and drowsy.
But the seventh match is going to be very interesting, with many people focusing their attention on the two teams that will be participating.
This included the seven girls from the Spirit Hall's second team, Huo Wu from Blazing Fire Academy, Shui Bing'er from Heavenly Water Academy, Feng Xiaotian from Divine Wind Academy, and the members of Barak Academy, which was directly under the royal family of the Barak Kingdom.
The seventh match of the first round of the qualifying tournament was played between the Shrek Seven Devils led by Tang San and the Beast Academy led by Meng Yiran.
The Spirit Hall's second team naturally supported the Beast Academy. After all, they were all on the same side, and Meng Yiran had a close relationship with their beloved Ye Qifeng. They might even become sisters in the future, so they naturally had to support her.
Although Huo Wu from Blazing Fire Academy and Shui Bing'er from Skywater Academy also sided with the Beast Academy, they were more interested in Meng Yiran's strength.
Huo Wu wanted to see if the other party really had the right to compete with her for a man. If not, then, well, don't blame her for bullying her in the future; she would definitely make her suffer.
Shui Bing'er didn't have that many ulterior motives.
To be honest, she had a good impression of Meng Yiran, and their relationship was quite good, so she didn't need to think too much and just support Meng Yiran. Anyway, she didn't like Shrek Academy.
Feng Xiaotian of Shenfeng Academy, however, didn't seem to care.
He was not familiar with Meng Yiran or the Beast Academy led by Meng Yiran, and had no connection with them. He was also unaware that the latter two, like him and the Shenfeng City, Feng Clan, and Shenfeng Academy behind him, were secretly affiliated with the Spirit Hall.
Therefore, it is irrelevant to him who wins or loses.
He just wanted to open his eyes wide and see clearly whether Tang San's strength had improved, how much it had improved, how much difference there was between him and Tang San, and whether he could defeat Tang San instead of ending in a draw.
As for the students of Barak Academy in the Barak Kingdom, they naturally supported the Shrek Seven Devils and hoped that the Shrek Seven Devils could teach the Beast Academy a good lesson.
Although they come from the same kingdom and the same capital, Barak Academy and Beast Academy don't get along well and are even hostile to each other.
Barak Academy is already considered top-tier in the Barak Kingdom, but there is always a formidable opponent above them, namely the Beast Academy under the Dragon Serpent Mansion, which keeps them suffocating.
The students of Barak Academy were all spoiled brats from the Barak royal family and nobility. They were used to throwing their weight around, but in front of Meng Yiran, they didn't dare to utter a sound, all because they had all been beaten up by Meng Yiran.
Therefore, everyone harbors resentment towards Meng Yiran and the Beast Academy.
Now that the Shrek Seven Devils have encountered the Beast Academy, the students of Barak Academy naturally hope that the Shrek Seven Devils will win, so that Meng Yiran and the Beast Academy can also taste the bitterness of defeat.
That way they can vent their anger.
Time flowed slowly, and the seventh match was finally about to begin.

Dai Mubai was the first to extend his right hand, followed by Tang San, Xiao Wu, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Ning Rongrong, and Yu Tianheng. The seven of them put their hands together and shouted:
"Victory is certain!"
As for the four substitutes who were just there to make up the numbers.
Excluded, they could only stand around and stare blankly, completely unable to integrate into the Shrek Seven Devils group, yet they still had to work for free and participate in the competition.
Yu Xiaogang was full of confidence for the upcoming match against the Beast Academy.
With the previous six matches as a reference, Yu Xiaogang also realized that the academies of the five kingdoms and duchies were not very strong, and he believed that the Beast Academy was no different and not much stronger.
Therefore, in terms of personnel arrangements, only three of the Shrek Seven Devils were sent: Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Dai Mubai.
The remaining four vacancies were filled by four substitute players sent over from the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.
They're just there to make up the numbers anyway, they're not really needed.
With just Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Dai Mubai, they could easily defeat their opponents.
Yu Xiaogang had already made this assumption in his mind and didn't take the Beast Academy seriously at all. However, he never expected that there would be such an anomaly as Meng Yiran in this academy.
Perhaps it was the lessons learned from their crushing defeats to Blazing Academy, Heavenly Water Academy, and the Spirit Hall's second team in the preliminary rounds that motivated the Shrek Seven Devils to work harder. They had all put in a lot of effort over the past month.
Moreover, the Shrek Seven Devils have indeed become stronger.
Although only a month has passed, the oppressive aura emanating from them has become significantly stronger, and their soul power has increased to a certain extent.
This is precisely why Yu Xiaogang had such a strong misconception about the Shrek Seven Devils.
"The seventh match of the first round of the qualifying tournament, between the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy and the Beast Academy, is about to begin. Please send out the first student from each team to the stage."
Before long, the referee's loud voice resounded throughout the arena through the amplified soul tool, and it was finally the Shrek Seven Devils' turn to appear.
On the Shrek Seven Devils' side, Yu Xiaogang arranged for Xiao Wu to be the first player to appear, while Tang San and Dai Mubai waited on the sidelines, separated from the four substitute players who were just there to make up the numbers by two or three meters, clearly indicating that they were not on the same side.
Encouraged by the confident gazes of the crowd, Xiao Wu, with a light smile on her face, slowly walked into the competition venue.
On the other side of the drill ground, a pretty young girl also walked out.
She looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in a neat blue-gray scale armor dress that tightly covered her well-developed and perfect figure, with a sturdy and slender serpent staff held horizontally in her hand.
She is Meng Yiran, the granddaughter of the Peerless Dragon Serpent, who once clashed with Tang San and others in the Star Dou Great Forest because of the Thousand-Year Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent Soul Ring.
As soon as Meng Yiran appeared, Tang San's attention was immediately drawn to her, but his expression darkened in an instant.
He hadn't forgotten the scene of Meng Yiran rejecting him outright, refusing to compete with him, and instead choosing that scoundrel Ye Qifeng instead. To him, that was a blatant humiliation.
Furthermore, he later witnessed Meng Yiran and Ye Qifeng getting together and stealing the Human-Faced Demon Spider Soul Ring that should have belonged to him, which prevented him from obtaining his third Soul Ring in time and delayed his time to save Xiao Wu.
If Xiao Wu hadn't returned safely, and if he hadn't been lucky enough to encounter another dying human-faced spider, he might not have even gotten his third soul ring.
To be honest, the reason he was so unlucky was all because of that bitch Ye Qifeng, and also because of this Meng Yiran in front of him.
Let's not even talk about Ye Qifeng; he's a complete scoundrel.
This Meng Yiran is clearly no good either; she hooked up with Ye Qifeng after only meeting him once.
Haha, a pair of adulterers.
Looking at Meng Yiran, who was full of vigor on the field, Tang San's eyes were sinister, and he sneered.
Meng Yiran was already sixteen years old more than two years ago, but at that time she was only at level thirty.
In terms of talent, he certainly can't compare to Xiao Wu.
Based on the typical cultivation progress of a Soul Master, Meng Yiran is currently at most around level 37 in terms of Soul Power. With Xiao Wu's current strength as a level 41 Soul Master, defeating Meng Yiran would be an absolute breeze.
Hopefully, Xiao Wu can teach her a lesson she'll never forget.
Tang San thought to himself.
Before the match even started, Meng Yiran could already feel Tang San's cold gaze fixed on her from not far away.
But she didn't care at all, she just chuckled and naturally focused her gaze on the rogue rabbit opposite her.
Xiao Wu, the Soft-Boned Rabbit, possesses the Martial Soul of the Soft-Boned Rabbit and a Soul Power of Level 41. She is a Soul Master of the Soul Sect level, combining both offensive and agile attack types.
Soul Skills: First Soul Skill: Waist Bow; Second Soul Skill: Charm; Third Soul Skill: Teleport; Fourth Soul Skill: Invincible Golden Body
Originally a 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit soul beast in human form, it possesses the innate soul skill Explosive Kill Eight-Stage Throw.
A series of information about Xiao Wu flashed through Meng Yiran's mind. They were all obtained from her beloved Brother Qifeng, and were so detailed that they made her scalp tingle.
When Meng Yiran first heard that Xiao Wu in front of her was actually a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, her jaw almost dropped in shock.
Fortunately, as the eldest daughter of the Dragon and Snake Mansion, she was quite knowledgeable and quickly accepted it.
It's important to know that the Douluo Continent is full of wonders, and there are indeed instances of 100,000-year-old soul beasts transforming into humans and living and cultivating in the human world as humans.
These transformed soul beasts appear no different from humans on the surface, but in essence they are still soul beasts. However, they are difficult for people to detect. Only strong people at the Soul Douluo level or above can detect a clue.
If faced with a Title Douluo-level being, they would have almost nowhere to hide, and would be seen through at a glance, then brutally slaughtered, their rings and bones taken.
Unless its strength reaches the level of a Soul Emperor or above, enters the mature stage, becomes a true human, or possesses some kind of magical artifact that can shield the aura of a Soul Beast.
Otherwise, they'll only be hunted down.
The 100,000-year-old Soft Bone Rabbit named Xiao Wu clearly does not possess the soul power of a Soul Emperor. The fact that she has been able to hide until now without being discovered is probably because she carries something that can shield her from the aura of a soul beast.
After all, there were quite a few Soul Douluos present, including even Title Douluos, so there was no reason why they wouldn't discover her Soul Beast identity.
Therefore, the only explanation is that he possesses something that can shield him from the aura of a soul beast.
Meng Yiran had no doubt that the information provided by Ye Qifeng was false; her feelings of affection and gratitude had already led her to choose unconditional trust.
With the detailed information provided by Ye Qifeng, Meng Yiran was 100% confident that she could easily control Xiao Wu.
Uh, no, I should say that even without this information, with her current strength, taking down Xiao Wu would be a piece of cake.
Moreover, knowing that Xiao Wu is not human, but a 100,000-year-old rabbit in human form, she won't have to hold back as much when she attacks.
Just go all out. After all, the opponent is a soul beast. Even if you kill it, who can say anything?
Thinking of this, Meng Yiran smiled slightly, and her gaze towards Xiao Wu became inexplicable.
However, Tang San and Xiao Wu saw Meng Yiran's behavior as nothing more than a pretense and an act.
After all, it's understandable that some of these people from the five kingdoms and duchies were brimming with pride and self-satisfaction as they came to participate in the qualifying rounds.
"The match begins!"
Seeing that Meng Yiran and Xiao Wu had taken their positions, the referee in charge of the competition immediately announced the start of the competition.
The moment the words left their mouths, the two of them moved almost simultaneously.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Wu had summoned her martial soul and completed the possession, transforming into a pink, fluffy humanoid rabbit with a pair of long rabbit ears standing tall on her head.
In the face of mutual confrontation, the twenty-meter distance passed in the blink of an eye. However, when the two closed to five meters, Xiao Wu's figure suddenly disappeared.
She used her teleportation skill, which allowed her to instantly move to any place within a five-meter radius that she could see.
As the third spirit ring emitted a purple light, its skill, Teleportation, was activated.
Xiao Wu's figure immediately disappeared from Meng Yiran's sight, and the next second, she appeared behind Meng Yiran.
However, Meng Yiran's beautiful blue-gray eyes showed no panic, but rather an unwavering calm, indicating that she had anticipated this move.
The moment Meng Yiran noticed Xiao Wu appearing behind her, she swung her snake staff with a sudden, powerful strike, like a dragon emerging from the sea or a serpent rising from the land.
Meng Yiran's martial soul is a weapon martial soul. She already has the snake staff in her hand. There is no need to release it. She only needs to mobilize her soul power and activate her soul ring to use the skill directly.
At this moment, she only made a simple swing of her snake staff, but it caught Xiao Wu off guard. She had just emerged from the teleportation when she was put into a dangerous situation.
A snake-headed cane, radiating a faint, soulful light, slammed down towards her head, as if it had been waiting for her there all along.
Xiao Wu was so shocked that her scalp tingled.
In a panic, there was no time to use any soft techniques, nor time to retreat and create distance. He could only use up one chance to use Invincible Golden Body and tough it out.
Fourth Soul Skill, Invincible Golden Body, activated.
A dazzling golden light formed a transparent protective shield around Xiao Wu, providing absolute defense for three seconds and doubling her power.
boom--
The serpent staff, carrying unparalleled force, slammed into Xiao Wu's forehead.
However, it failed to harm her, as the invincible golden body blocked Meng Yiran's attack.
But Meng Yiran had no intention of giving up so easily. She immediately followed up and launched attacks without stopping with her snake staff.
Even if they can't harm Xiao Wu, they are determined to entangle and suppress her. As long as they can withstand the three seconds of the invincible golden body, the other party will be like a fish on a chopping board.
