Emperor Xue Ye's aged face trembled slightly, but he didn't speak. He was well aware of the Heaven Dou Second Team's true strength; they were merely cannon fodder.
Below the stage.
Dugu Bo also sensed a mysterious aura flickering in the void. He was now a Level 96 Super Douluo, and the cultivation method Xiao Tian gave him could also enhance his mental force, allowing him to surpass his current realm.
"Little freak?"
Dugu Bo frowned and whispered, "Huh, how did you know?"
Xiao Tian: "How could I not know you?"
Since Xiao Tian and Dugu Bo were only speaking in low voices and not using sound transmission, Dugu Yan, Xiao Wu, and the others could hear them clearly.
The girls: "Hey, hey, hey, what you two are saying, isn't it a bit ambiguous?"
Suddenly, Xiao Tian recalled the method for condensing a Spirit Core that the system had given him. He could first have Dugu Bo condense a poison-attribute Spirit Core or a mental Spirit Core, which would also enhance his combat power.
The last time Dugu Bo left, he was gone for a month, and Xiao Tian had completely forgotten about this matter.
(Can a Spirit condense a Spirit Core?)
"Old freak, after the match ends, come to my room. I have a new idea that can enhance your strength. If you're lucky, you might even have a breakthrough," Xiao Tian transmitted.
Dugu Bo looked at Xiao Tian with some surprise, nodded, and felt a slight excitement and admiration in his heart. Xiao Tian was truly a Little freak; he wondered what new thing he had researched.
On the arena.
This time, facing the Elephant Armor Academy, unlike the original, since Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing were not present, they could only choose to go all out to win the match.
Therefore, those participating were Tang San, Dai Mubai, Yu Tianheng, Ma Hongjun, Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, and Oscar.
Because they planned to use aerial combat tactics for this match, aiming for a quick victory, Jiang Zhu was excluded.
Tai Long, on the other hand, was too sturdy, and the Flying Mushroom Sausage might not be able to bear such a heavy weight.
Host: "Please welcome the Shrek Team and the Elephant Armor Team's contestants to the stage!"
The next moment, both teams' contestants entered the arena and took their respective formations.
The Host shouted: "Dear audience, Shrek is adopting a relatively conservative formation, two-three-two. And the Elephant Armor Academy is directly lined up in a single row! Who will win today's showdown?"
"Now, let me introduce the basic information of the Shrek Team members: Captain Dai Mubai, SpiritEvil Eyes White Tiger, Level 42 attack systemWar Soul Master!"
"Vice-captain Tang San, SpiritBlue Silver Grass, Level 41 control systemWar Soul Master!"
"Oh, there's a new team member today, Yu Tianheng, SpiritBlue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Level 43 attack systemWar Soul Master! It seems Shrek didn't use their full strength in yesterday's match!"
"Team member Ma Hongjun, SpiritEvil Fire Phoenix, Level 39 attack systemSpirit Elder."
"Team member Huang Yuan, Spirit Lone Wolf, Level 35 attack systemSpirit Elder."
"Team member Jing Ling, Spirit Skeleton, Level 35 attack systemSpirit Elder."
"Team member Oscar, SpiritSausage, Level 35 food systemSpirit Elder."
"Elephant Armor Academy Captain Hu Yanli, Spirit Diamond Mammoth, Level 44 defense system War Soul Master!"
"..."
Host: "Alright, no more nonsense. Let's look forward to the wonderful performances these two teams will bring us!"
"Match, begin!"
Xiao Tian glanced at Hu Yanli. It seemed the butterfly effect from their previous unhidden strength was still present; Hu Yanli was already Level 44, one level higher than in the original work. However, unfortunately, this level of strength was still not quite enough.
From the start, Tang San had Oscar use the Flying Mushroom Sausage, sending the entire team airborne, which put the Elephant Armor Academy at a significant disadvantage.
Immediately after, provoked by Oscar's words, Hu Yanli fell for the trick and ate the 'Old Eight's Secret Honey Burger' Oscar threw, falling into a frenzy. He directly used their trump card, the self-made cannon platform, which they had originally planned to use against the Kamikaze Academy.
"Brother, Tang San and their plan was disrupted by the Elephant Armor Academy. It looks like they might lose now!"
Xiao Tian shook his head and said, "It's not that easy. Hu Yanli's defense is indeed very strong, but with Yu Tianheng's attack power, even if he can't defeat the opponent, he can hold them back. And Dai Mubai can also defeat one, while Tang San, with the cooperation of others, although it will be difficult, can still win."
"Of course, if Tang San ultimately uses his second Spirit, then the Elephant Armor Academy will have no chance of winning at all."
"Let's go, there's nothing more to see here. Let's go to other arenas to see the combat strength of other academies."
With that, Xiao Tian led the others away.
Half an hour later, they also left the Great Spirit Arena, having gathered all the information they wanted.
Yu Feng chuckled, "Captain, we're really sure to win this time. Although the Five Elements Academy's strength isn't weak, their strongest member's spirit power is only Level 45, which is still far behind us."
Xiao Tian said indifferently, "Yu Feng, you need to change that habit. This is just their superficial strength. As geniuses of their academies, every team is bound to have trump cards, more or less."
"Trump cards?"
Xiao Tian: "For example, Spirit Fusion Skill."
Dugu Yan said, "Xiao Tian, even if they have a Spirit Fusion Skill, they basically won't be your opponents. And if nothing unexpected happens, they might not even be able to resist my mixed poison."
Xiao Tian sighed, glared at her in annoyance, and stopped pretending: "Of course I know. I just don't want Yu Feng and the others to underestimate the enemy so much. Be humble in everything, don't be so excited!"
Everyone: "..."
At this moment, there was a ripple in the void, but it quickly disappeared. No one noticed it except Xiao Tian and his group.
Tang Hao: "Strange, there's really no trace of a 100,000-year Spirit Beast aura on Xiao Wu anymore. Is there really some treasure?"
Tang Hao looked at Dugu Bo next to Xiao Tian. Just now, Dugu Bo's gaze seemed to have glanced in his direction. Was he discovered?
No, it must have been a coincidence, right?
Although Dugu Bo was a Titled Douluo, in Tang Hao's opinion, among Titled Douluo, he was relatively weak, at a lower-middle level. How could he possibly discover his presence?
There was one thing he cared about, though. Rumor had it that Dugu Bo had white hair. So why did he have black hair now?
Immediately, Tang Hao also pondered in his heart when he would capture Xiao Wu and kill Xiao Tian.
Xiao Wu could be kept in captivity; her spirit ring and Spirit Bone were useful to his son. As for Xiao Tian, he was completely at odds with his son now, so he might as well kill him!
