In the Thunder Academy lounge, the team leader's expression was uncertain, and he looked at the Shrek Seven Devils suspiciously.
"So, we can only rely on you, these external students?"
It was impossible not to be suspicious, but the Healing Soul Master hadn't found any signs of poisoning in Yu Tianxin and the others, so even if he was suspicious, he could only give up in frustration.
After all, there was no corresponding evidence, and the original Thunder Academy reserve team was not good enough; participating in the competition would only be a supporting role.
The teams that had advanced were the Tianyan Battle Team, formed by the combined Tianshui Academy and Blazing Academy.
There was also the Elephant Armored Academy, established by the Elephant Armored Academy, and the Heaven Dou Royal Team One, whose strength was unbelievably strong; none of their reserve members could withstand them.
They could only hope that Tang San and his team wouldn't mess up.
"This instructor, don't worry, we Shrek Seven Devils are not weaker than other teams at all."
Tang San said confidently, looking quite self-assured. The previous disastrous defeat was only because he hadn't used Hidden Weapons.
Now that he had several kinds of Hidden Weapons on him to deal with Spirit Saints, even if he encountered Dugu Yan again, he wouldn't lose.
Moreover, he would make Dugu Yan pay a painful price.
"Hmph, I hope so. Don't be like before, losing in the first match."
The instructor snorted and prepared to leave. After passing by the Shrek Seven Devils, he spoke again: "Also, now you are people of Thunder Academy. Shrek Seven Devils? What nonsense. Now you are the Thunder Academy reserve team."
After speaking, he left arrogantly. To him, the Shrek Seven Devils were just a bunch of trash who needed their charity.
"Damn it."
After the instructor left, Tang San immediately slapped the table beside him in a fit of rage, breathing heavily.
Beside him, Feng Xiaotian, being quite perceptive, came to Tang San's side, poured him a pot of tea, and advised:
"Third Brother, there's no need to be angry. It's not too late to come back to Thunder Academy and avenge yourself after you Break through to Title Douluo."
"Alright, everyone rest well today. I don't want any more accidents to occur."
Tang San waved his hand, like a superior, casually ordering the other Shrek members around.
Dai Mubai, however, didn't care. He took Oscar and Ma Hongjun outside.
As soon as they stepped out, Ma Hongjun started speaking sarcastically about Tang San.
"He always says we're holding him back, but which match wasn't he the fastest to fall? I really don't know how he has the nerve to say that."
"Who knows? One would think he's some big shot, and he even has some Title Douluo father, but who knows where he died? He never showed up whenever he got beaten."
Oscar also said casually, his tone also showing disdain for Tang San.
Seeing their expressions, Dai Mubai was quite pleased. Finally, he put his arms around their shoulders and encouraged them: "What's a Title Douluo? With our talent, Breaking through to Title Douluo is a piece of cake."
Although they said this, the three of them also had ulterior motives, because their cultivation was also rapidly declining.
Dai Mubai had even dropped to only Level 50. If he dropped another level, his fifth spirit ring would dissipate, and he would become a Level 49 Spirit Ancestor.
Ma Hongjun and Oscar were similar; they were both around Level 41 or 42, with unstable cultivation, constantly on the verge of dropping another level.
But they had already vaguely guessed the reason for their cultivation decline, which was probably related to the Immortal Herb Tang San gave them.
After all, after eating the Immortal Herb, their cultivation hadn't improved for a long time, and it was getting worse day by day. On the contrary, Tang San, who hadn't eaten the Immortal Herb, had his cultivation rise, which they found extremely unreasonable.
Oscar and Ma Hongjun immediately thought of the kind of herbs that squeezed potential, and they tacitly assumed it was the so-called Immortal Herb that Tang San gave them.
And Dai Mubai suspected that Tang San was guarding against him and had tampered with the Immortal Herb, which was why this was happening. Otherwise, why did his cultivation advance by leaps and bounds after he ate the Immortal Herb in his previous life?
He couldn't help but resent Tang San in his heart. Damn Tang San, how dare he frame us? He is simply courting death.
"When I go back and become the Star Luo Crown Prince, we three brothers won't have to suffer anymore."
Dai Mubai looked at the two and drew a few more grand visions, which immediately made Oscar and Ma Hongjun incredibly excited.
Ma Hongjun even awkwardly patted his big stomach, one eye full of lewdness, thinking that he would also be a general.
At that time, what kind of Tang San trash? He would directly humiliate Xiao Fei with his hand in front of Tang San, letting Tang San know that Ma Hongjun was not to be trifled with.
As for why he used his hand, of course, it was because his little red was gone.
...
After a night of tossing and turning.
The next day, the Douluo Arena was already packed with people, as it was the final match of the semifinals, which was bound to be a strong showdown.
"First round: Tianyan Battle Team versus Heaven Dou Royal Team One."
"Second round: Elephant Armored Academy versus Thunder Academy."
As soon as the words fell, there was a chorus of cheers, not because of the second round, but because of the first round's Tianyan Battle Team and Heaven Dou Royal Team One.
After all, both of these were popular teams, and Heaven Dou Royal Team One hadn't lost a single match since the competition began.
The team members were all young women in their prime.
And the Tianyan Battle Team also had no defeats; it was a combination of Tianshui Academy and Blazing Academy, with powerful strength.
Although they seemed much weaker than Heaven Dou Royal Team One, Dugu Yan would not rashly take the lead. The other duels could also be considered a thoroughly enjoyable battle.
Tang San and the others, however, breathed a sigh of relief. Although Tang San now believed he had Hidden Weapons to deal with Dugu Yan, he ultimately didn't want to expose them now.
After all, he only had one chance to use Hidden Weapons, and he could only use it in the finals to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy. At that time, he would take the reward and run.
No matter how furious Spirit Hall became, they wouldn't be able to find him, because by then, he would probably have already gone to Sea God Island.
When he returned to the continent, he would already be a Title Douluo or close to achieving the Sea God God Position, only then would he go to Slaughter City to inherit his great-grandfather's Asura God Position. A small Spirit Hall would be easily overthrown with one hand.
"What kind of trash is Elephant Armored Academy?"
As a defeated opponent in Heaven Dou City, the one-eyed fire pig Ma Hongjun also said with disdain, a small Elephant Armored Academy was nothing more than their defeated opponent.
"Alright, Fatty, don't be careless. This time, let's completely establish the prestige of our Shrek Seven Devils."
Dai Mubai was also in a good mood, feeling that not getting beaten was truly great. He casually ruffled his golden hair, looking quite flamboyant.
However, just as the Shrek Seven Devils were secretly rejoicing because their opponent was ordinary, the Thunder Academy instructor walked over and said with a warning look: "Remember, now you are people of Thunder Academy. Don't mention that so-called Shrek Seven Devils again."
"Got it."
Tang San looked at the Thunder Academy instructor, who was a spoilsport, with displeasure, but there was nothing he could do. He said impatiently.
"Good that you know."
After speaking, the Thunder Academy instructor flicked his sleeve, snorted coldly, and leisurely left, not even giving Tang San and the others a proper glance.
