Senior caught Bei Bei and brought him over, scolding him irritably: "Why were you distracted during the battle?"
Senior had seen Bei Bei's performance just now; he was clearly distracted, and there was even an issue with his strength when facing Shi Yu's attack. Such a low-level mistake shouldn't be made.
Bei Bei wanted to say Shi Yu didn't, but didn't speak up, to avoid Senior mistaking him for being stubborn.
"What exactly is going on?" Bei Bei rubbed his aching arm. Shi Yu's punch made him feel like his arm was about to break.
After blasting Bei Bei away, Shi Yu basically understood the situation. His faint Dragon God's Blood could also suppress Dragon Martial Soul Soul Masters.
Moreover, this suppression effect seemed quite good; a slight activation was enough to send Bei Bei flying with one punch.
If Shi Yu fully activated it, wouldn't Shi Yu just directly punch him to death?
"With this suppression effect, I estimate I could even go toe-to-toe with a Soul Emperor level Dragon Martial Soul Soul Master," Shi Yu thought to himself.
It was just a momentary lapse in concentration, and then Shi Yu disappeared with Naruto's Instant Transmission, going to help Ma Xiaotao deal with Dai Yueheng.
Shi Yu had no intention of dealing with Dai Huabin and Chen Zifeng. Firstly, Dai Huabin was also considered a friend, so let him compete with Wang Dong there.
As for Chen Zifeng, Shi Yu simply felt that dealing with him was less beneficial than dealing with the stronger Dai Yueheng.
After all, Dai Yueheng's opponent was Ma Xiaotao, who was at a disadvantage. It was better to help the stronger side, and helping Ma Xiaotao would yield results faster.
As Dai Yueheng and Ma Xiaotao were locked in fierce combat, a powerful attack arrived. Two intersecting energy blade lights slashed towards Dai Yueheng's back.
This was Shi Yu's third Soul Skill, Void Slash.
Realizing the danger, Dai Yueheng couldn't afford to hesitate. He forcefully unleashed his power to push Ma Xiaotao away, quickly turned around, and crossed his arms to block.
He activated the White Tiger Body Protection Barrier at the fastest speed.
"Bang!" The Void Slash and the White Tiger Body Protection Barrier didn't hold out for long before the light barrier was shattered.
The Void Slash landed on Dai Yueheng's arm. Upon contact, Dai Yueheng's expression turned pained, and he slid back a considerable distance, his feet scraping against the ground.
After stabilizing himself, two bloody marks appeared on both of his arms. He was hunched over, panting heavily.
"What a powerful Soul Skill," Dai Yueheng was shocked internally, looking at Shi Yu who had appeared a little further away.
The attack just now was released by Shi Yu, it was his third Soul Skill.
However, the power of this Soul Skill didn't resemble a Soul Grandmaster's third Soul Skill at all; its power was comparable to a Soul King's fifth Soul Skill.
"Dai Yueheng, concede," Ma Xiaotao also seized the opportunity, unleashing a powerful Soul Skill to defeat Dai Yueheng while she had the chance.
Dai Yueheng could only concede helplessly; there was no need to force the fight any further.
After all, this was just a simple spar, it wasn't necessary to really fight to the death and suffer heavy injuries.
Ma Xiaotao didn't really want to severely injure Dai Yueheng either, and held back at the crucial moment.
At this point, only Dai Huabin and Chen Zifeng were left on Dai Yueheng's side. Both conceded one after another; there was no need to continue fighting.
"Amazing!" After the battle ended, Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but give Shi Yu a thumbs-up. He played a crucial role in this battle, and choosing him first was truly a wise decision.
Jiang Nannan, He Caitou, and the others were also quite happy, especially He Caitou, Gongyang Mo, and others who had their first contact with Shi Yu; they were utterly shocked by Shi Yu's performance.
The Outer Courtyard and Inner Courtyard students who didn't participate in the battle were also surprised by Shi Yu's strength, especially the Inner Courtyard students. It was hard to imagine that Shi Yu was actually an Outer Courtyard student. Many were silent, quietly comparing themselves to Shi Yu, feeling that they didn't seem to have much chance of winning against him.
"If you lose, you must admit it," Senior urged Dai Yueheng and the others. Dai Yueheng, Huo Yuhao, and the others were very embarrassed; it was truly difficult to say.
However, they were eventually forced to say the three words: I am a pig.
"You all rest first, then you'll swap teammates and fight another round later," Senior said with a smile. Teasing these children was quite interesting.
"No," Ma Xiaotao was the first to object.
"It should be so," Dai Yueheng, on the other hand, expressed agreement.
"You can also have another chance to choose your teammates," Senior proposed a second option.
"I want the first pick," Dai Yueheng said forcefully.
"Why?" Ma Xiaotao was unhappy.
"Just because you chose first just now, it should be my turn now," Dai Yueheng said as if it were only natural.
The two argued about this. After realizing how formidable Shi Yu was, Ma Xiaotao would never let Shi Yu go to Dai Yueheng's side.
Senior let the two of them argue there and then pointed out fourteen more people, having them split into two teams to fight.
The overall strength of this second batch was not as good as the first batch.
Shi Yu and the others sat aside watching, resting for over an hour before it was their turn to continue fighting.
They formed teams again. Dai Yueheng won the priority pick through rock-paper-scissors and chose Shi Yu first.
Ma Xiaotao could only helplessly choose Chen Zifeng.
The teams were split again. This time, Dai Yueheng's team consisted of Dai Yueheng, Shi Yu, Jiang Nannan, Dai Huabin, Huo Yuhao, Ling Luochen, and Xi Xi.
After realizing Huo Yuhao's ability, Dai Yueheng still gave Huo Yuhao a relatively high priority.
After both sides confirmed their teams, they fought again. This time, Shi Yu's performance was still brilliant.
Relying on Naruto's Instant Transmission, he easily approached the opponent's support Soul Masters, practically entering an uninhabited land.
Even Soul King level support Soul Masters couldn't stop him.
Ma Xiaotao and the others were already trying their best to restrict Shi Yu, but they couldn't restrict him at all.
They didn't have any Space-type Soul Masters here, and relying solely on speed or some attacks couldn't restrict Shi Yu.
It was also useless to suppress Shi Yu with powerful strength, unless Ma Xiaotao could break through to Soul Douluo.
He Caitou, Yao Haoxuan, Gongyang Mo, and other backline Soul Masters were eliminated by Shi Yu one by one.
Then Bei Bei, Wang Dong, Chen Zifeng, and others were also out, leaving only Ma Xiaotao struggling there alone.
Finally, she could only concede helplessly, saying the three words: I am a pig, reluctantly.
The several battles in the afternoon also gave Senior a general understanding of the strength of these candidates, and the seven Inner Courtyard disciple spots were confirmed.
Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, Gongyang Mo, Yao Haoxuan, Chen Zifeng, Xi Xi, Ling Luochen.
As for the Outer Courtyard, the confirmed one was Shi Yu.
His talent was extremely high, worth cultivating vigorously, plus his super strength was not inferior to Inner Courtyard disciples, so confirming him to enter the reserve team was also beyond reproach.
Let alone entering the reserve team, even becoming a main team member, Shi Yu was qualified and wouldn't attract any doubts.
His performance could be said to be obvious to all, his strength was beyond doubt.
These eight people, Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Bei Bei, Jiang Nannan, He Caitou, Xiao Xiao, Dai Huabin, and Zhu Lu, entered the alternate list.
Six people will be selected from them to enter the reserve team for this Soul Master Competition.
The next week will be their assessment period.
