Chapter 647 Shrek Academy, Defeated
The sudden mental shock disrupted the soul power fluctuations of Yun Lueying's entire body. The moment the Purgatory Halberd struck the protective shield, the transparent film only flickered symbolically for a moment before disappearing immediately.
The Purgatory Halberd, in its slashing motion, showed no sign of stopping, striking the Azure Mist Spear squarely.
The Azure Mist Spear was merely swung upwards due to inertia; the chaotic flow of soul power could no longer condense into any threatening attack, it was nothing more than a pool of empty water.
Now, he faces a full-force attack from Qianfeng.
One black, one blue—the two weapons clashed.
Clang——
As the sharp metallic clang rang out, the compressed soul power on the Azure Mist Spear finally burst forth uncontrollably, generating a powerful repulsive force in all directions.
Whether it was Dean Yan Shaozhe and the other two deans of Shrek Academy's training area, their teammates, or Elder Xuan in the Imperial City, they all stood up at the same time, their wide eyes revealing their shock and trepidation.
The person directly impacted by the enormous repulsive force was Yun Lueying himself. His body was sent flying backward, and before he could land, he was caught by Tianyang Douluo's gentle soul power.
In contrast, Qianfeng gripped the Purgatory Halberd tightly with both hands and planted it in the ground in front of him. He also suffered a considerable impact, but his legs did not take a single step back.
The force that generated the enormous impact came from the Azure Mist Spear, which was thrown high into the air and spun several times before being collected by Tianyang Douluo.
Just by holding it in your hand and weighing it slightly, you can tell it's no ordinary item.
But before Tianyang Douluo could sigh, a request came from below: "Senior Tianyang, please pronounce the judgment."
It was Qianfeng who spoke first. Tianyang Douluo's expression was solemn. After carefully examining Yun Lueying's condition, he slowly said, "The Shrek Academy member has lost consciousness. Since the Shrek Academy team has no other combat members, they are unable to continue the battle. Therefore, I hereby announce..."
He paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "In this match, Shrek Academy has lost."
"The winner is Mingdou Academy."
The voice was deep, yet it resonated in the minds of almost every audience member.
Shrek Academy has lost?
There were no off-field factors to blame, and they were defeated head-on by a newly established academy on the field.
Accompanied by an intense pressure, an old figure suddenly appeared in the sky above the arena; it was Elder Xuan.
He hovered in front of Tianyang Douluo, his face ashen.
The entire audience held their breath; not a single person cheered, as if any act of celebration would be seen as gloating.
"Tianyang, what exactly happened? Why was Shrek Academy ruled against?" Elder Xuan asked in a deep voice, clearly dissatisfied with the verdict.
Tianyang Douluo explained, "Taotie Douluo, as you can see, the Shrek team has no replacement fighters, and this player has lost consciousness. According to the rule that the loser stays on the field, they can be declared the loser."
Rules are rules. No matter how much His Majesty instructs that the rules be more favorable to Shrek Academy, he cannot make any other judgment now.
Elder Xuan felt a surge of anger stuck in his throat, with nowhere to vent it. His gaze shifted rapidly, his aged eyes filled with a sharp glint.
Finally, his gaze fixed on Qianfeng below, as if he wanted to devour him alive.
"Impossible! I don't believe it. With his strength of only the third ring, how could he possibly defeat the peak fifth ring Shadow?" Elder Xuan didn't glare and shout like the old rascal, but instead looked like he was trying hard to suppress his raging anger, while also revealing his deep incomprehension.
He was genuinely puzzled as to why Shrek Academy lost.
Tianyang Douluo patiently replied, "Taotie Douluo, I believe you witnessed the entire details of the match. After concealing their presence, the Mingdou team used a soul-guided bomb on the Shrek team, and the effect was remarkable." A simulated soul-guided device couldn't fool the eyes of these powerful individuals; he believed Elder Xuan had also clearly seen the process.
"Of course I understand what you're saying." Elder Xuan suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "Do you really think it's normal for a third-ring cultivator to defeat a peak fifth-ring cultivator with just a soul-guided bomb?"
Tianyang Douluo said, "Taotie Douluo, just speak plainly."
Finally, Elder Xuan couldn't hold back any longer and roared, "This is clearly a restricted-use soul tool! As the chief referee, why are you indifferent!"
Tianyang Douluo frowned, considering how to answer, when Qianfeng spoke first: "This competition only restricts the use of high-powered fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells. This bomb is not on the restricted list and is fully in compliance with the rules."
He was saying exactly what Tianyang Douluo wanted to say, but he didn't say it so bluntly because of Xuan Lao's status.
Elder Xuan's face darkened. He never expected Qian Feng to be so fearless. He felt that he had been humiliated: "What a vicious method! Confess honestly, did your team leader order you to use this bomb?"
The intense mental fluctuations at the moment the necromancer bomb exploded were unmistakable. And among those at Mingdou Academy with a connection to mental attributes, only Huo Yuhao possessed such a talent.
The moment his question was uttered, Huo Yuhao appeared behind Qianfeng, tall and imposing, like Qianfeng's strongest support.
The audience of the battle once again witnessed these two people clashing head-on, as if another great drama was about to unfold.
"Elder Xuan, victory and defeat are common occurrences in war. I suggest that Shrek Academy students not throw a tantrum after losing the match, as that would be very ungentlemanly." Huo Yuhao appeared quite calm.
"Huo Yuhao!" Elder Xuan gritted his teeth and said unwillingly, "Tell me, did you make this bomb and give it to him?"
Huo Yuhao blocked his way: "Elder Xuan, please don't frame me for no reason. I only taught Qianfeng the relevant production methods. He personally completed all the engraving and assembly."
"Nonsense! If it weren't for your help, how could that bomb have been so powerful?"
"If the Mingdou team wins by relying on the soul tool you made, is there any fairness in this competition?"
Elder Xuan had already assumed that Huo Yuhao was the mastermind behind the scenes, and he blamed all of Shrek Academy's failure on him, as if only in this way could he make himself feel better.
Seeing Elder Xuan's unreasonable attitude, Huo Yuhao's easygoing nature vanished, and his expression gradually darkened: "Elder Xuan, first of all, I want to emphasize again that this soul-guided bomb was made by my team member himself. It is the result of his own hard work. Apart from providing guidance, I did not provide any direct assistance."
"Secondly, are all the soul tools of the Shrek team made by the team members themselves?"
He glanced sideways at Tianyang Douluo as he put away the Qinglan Spear he had entrusted to him for safekeeping: "This soul tool has reached the eighth level, far exceeding the normal range that your team members can withstand."
"The direct reason he was defeated was the backlash of his soul power caused by the mental shock, which injured him greatly, allowing my team members to take advantage of his weakness. If you're not confused, you should be able to figure that out."
Elder Xuan's face had turned completely ashen. How could he not know that Huo Yuhao's words were absolutely correct?
"This is the Youth Soul Master Competition, not the Soul Instructor Competition. It's about on-field combat, not soul tool creation. Every team has many members using soul tools made by their mentors. Are you going to call them all out for fouls?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this soul-guided spear was probably made by Dean Lin'er, right?"
Elder Xuan's face grew even more somber, and he remained suspended in the air for a long time without speaking.
“Yes, Yuhao is right. Elder Xuan, if you are not as skilled as others, then stop making trouble.” Xian Lin’er flew up and advised the two of them.
Unexpectedly, Elder Xuan suddenly lost his temper, gritting his teeth and pointing at Xian Lin'er, saying, "It's all your fault! If you hadn't added those superfluous soul tools to the children, how could they have suffered such a backlash?"
His eyes were already red, as if he had to find a reason to shift all the blame onto the other person.
Xian Lin'er was stunned upon hearing this, looking at Elder Xuan in disbelief: "Elder Xuan, you mean... me?"
