On the other side of the square.
The Shrek members' expressions changed drastically after hearing Salas's announcement.
They're fighting the deputy captain of Tiandou?
Is it true or false?
After seeing the lineup of the Tiandou deputy team, they already knew that they were doomed to lose this battle.
Although among the Shrek team members, only Yu Tianheng had fought against the Tiandou vice-captains, whether it was Tang San or Oscar Ma Hongjun.
They had all witnessed the Heavenly Dou Vice Team members take action at the Soto City Grand Arena.
Their combat prowess at that time was already so great that it overwhelmed the entire Soul Sect team.
Especially now!
It should be noted that even if Tang San is included, Shrek Academy only has three Soul Master level combatants.
"Why are we so unlucky? We have to fight the deputy captain of Tian Dou on the very first day?"
"Could it be that this was a setup by that guy named Salas?"
Ma Hongjun glanced at the area where Vice Captain Tian Dou was located with his small, beady eyes, his face pale, and his voice trembling.
Besides him, the substitutes Jing Ling, Huang Yuan, and others also turned pale and subconsciously turned their gazes to Yu Tianheng and Tang San.
In this Shrek Academy team, Yu Tianheng has the highest soul power level and is also Yu Xiaogang's nephew, so he is naturally the rightful captain.
Tang San's actual combat strength is no weaker than Yu Tianheng's, so he is the spiritual pillar of the Shrek Academy team.
Now, the Shrek team desperately needs someone to step up and make a decision.
Even Tang San and Yu Tianheng fell silent for a moment.
There was a huge chasm between the two teams.
Others may not know, but surely Yu Tianheng is well aware of the strength of his old teammates?
The brief silence was broken by Oscar, whose voice was dry and tinged with obvious fear.
"Anyway, the qualifiers are all about the final points, so why don't we…" He swallowed hard and said with difficulty, "admit defeat in this match and conserve our strength."
"We can't beat the vice-captain of Tiandou, and we definitely can't beat the other teams either, so we're not at a loss."
The more Oscar talked, the more interested he became, and his eyes lit up.
Hearing this, Ma Hongjun followed suit and echoed his sentiments.
"Third Brother, Captain Yu, I also think Xiao Ao's words make sense. Why don't we vote?"
For a time, the Shrek team was in turmoil.
Apart from Tang San, Yu Tianheng, and Dai Mubai, who remained silent, everyone else was considering admitting defeat.
Although surrendering in front of nearly 100,000 people was somewhat shameful, the disparity in strength between the two sides was undeniable.
Yu Tianheng stood at the very front, his face terribly gloomy.
He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug deep into his flesh.
Admit defeat?
How could Yu Tianheng, the descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, surrender without a fight at this highly anticipated Soul Master event?
If this gets back to his sect, how will he face the consequences?
His family's pride wouldn't allow him to do it, and his inner pride wouldn't allow it either!
Not to mention, he was facing his former teammates.
If he loses, wouldn't that further prove that it was a foolish thing for him to leave Tiandou with Shrek Academy?
so--
He absolutely had to fight this battle!
"If you want to admit defeat, then admit defeat. I, Yu Tianheng..."
"Never admit defeat!"
The atmosphere on the field suddenly became tense.
Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and the others all showed a hint of embarrassment on their faces.
But in their hearts they were furiously complaining.
You're amazing!
You're so high and mighty!
With your soul power at level 45 and your martial soul being the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, of course you have nothing to fear.
But have you considered that we're only in the thirties?
If we were to fight against the deputy captains of Tiandou, wouldn't we be used as punching bags?
Seeing this, Oscar could only turn to Tang San for help.
In his opinion, given Tang San's rationality, he might persuade Yu Tianheng.
After all, from the current perspective, admitting defeat is the best option.
Otherwise, if he were to fight against the vice-captain of Tiandou, and his injury became too severe, it could very likely affect his performance in the upcoming matches.
However, under Oscar's gaze, Tang San, who had been keeping his head down and silent, slowly raised his head.
From his gaze, Oscar seemed to see a firm resolve.
In an instant, Oscar understood Tang San's thoughts and exclaimed inwardly.
not good--!!
Tang San suddenly lost his mind; he actually wanted to fight against the Heaven Dou team's vice-captain.
However, Tang San did not speak as directly as Yu Tianheng, but instead maintained a calm expression.
He spoke calmly, his voice calm yet firm: "We can win!"
Shrek Academy students:???
They looked at Tang San with blank expressions, as if asking: You're really bragging, do you know what you're saying?
Even Yu Tianheng was starting to lose his composure.
However, Tang San had inherited Yu Xiaogang's true teachings and exuded a confident aura. Although his voice was not loud, it was firm, powerful, and full of allure.
Faced with the bewildered and questioning looks of the crowd, he continued to speak in a calm and unhurried voice.
"I said, we can win!"
"While the deputy captain of the Heavenly Dou Team is indeed powerful, don't forget that you are also top-tier geniuses!"
"Tianheng is a level 45 Soul Master, and his Martial Soul is the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. As the number one beast Martial Soul in the world, do you think you can't suppress a mere Azure Phosphorous Serpent?"
At this moment, Yu Tianheng really wanted to say that he couldn't suppress Dugu Yan's Azure Phosphorous Serpent, but out of pride, he not only didn't say it, but also nodded arrogantly.
Then, Tang San looked at Dai Mubai with sincere eyes.
"Mu Bai, you were once the leader of our Shrek Seven Devils. Now that you've broken through to level 41, with the power of your White Tiger Martial Soul, isn't it more than enough to deal with the Shi brothers?"
After hearing this, Dai Mubai gritted his teeth.
Especially seeing the expectant looks from Ma Hongjun and Oscar, as the former leader of Shrek Academy, how could he possibly say he couldn't do it in front of his two underlings?
Therefore, Dai Mubai could only nod slightly, feigning composure.
Then, Tang San continued, "Xiao Ao, you are the only one on the continent with innate full soul power. With your continuous combat ability to support you, plus Fatty's top-level mutated martial soul, we can also cause some harassment to their support."
"Besides that, there is also the Tyrone Great Ape Martial Soul. Apart from Yang Yuan, I have never seen anyone of the same level who can rival you in strength."
"Even though the enemy is powerful, are we really that weak?"
"No! We will prove that we are stronger than them!"
"Brothers, cheer up! There are no cowards in our Shrek team!"
"In this match, we are not only fighting for ourselves, but also for Shrek Academy and for glory!"
Tang San's voice was very persuasive, his tone gradually becoming more passionate and high-pitched as he spoke, starting calmly.
A burst of psychological manipulation ignited the fighting spirit of the Shrek team!
"Third Brother is right. Although they are strong, we are not weak either."
"We'll only know who wins and who loses after the fight!"
"Let's fight them!"
Xiao Wu, Ma Hongjun, and Tai Long were all fooled and started yelling and waving their fists.
Three people can't even put together a single brain!
Players like Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng are actually just putting on a brave face; all they need to do is avoid a humiliating defeat once they're on stage.
The others were simply being held hostage!
At this moment, the host's urging voice rang out.
"Shrek Team, hurry up and get on stage!"
Upon hearing this, Tang San took a deep breath, then looked at his companion beside him and uttered two words.
Let's go!
