Chapter 179 Eight-man team battle against Tiandou

After arriving at the competition venue, Flender, as the dean, immediately went to the draw location to draw lots.

Soon, he came back and brought good news to everyone.

Shrek Academy's opponent in the third round of the knockout round was not strong, and it was also their old opponent in the promotion round.

College of Botany.

"Uh..." The master didn't expect this result of the draw, and subconsciously looked at Mu Jing.

After all, they had just poached someone else's corner, and they were about to face each other in the blink of an eye.

No matter what, it feels a bit unkind...

But Mu Jing didn't care at all and said: "It doesn't matter, I don't care. Or do you want me to appear? That's fine, I will appear in this scene."

The master who did not speak: "..."

So in this game, Tang Liu was replaced by Mu Jing. As expected, the eighth contestant from the enemy's Botanical Academy was at the Soul King level.

However, the eight people on Shrek's side are all soul sects, while there are only two soul sects in the Botanical Academy. Therefore, the strength of both sides is basically the same, not to mention that Shrek also has the auxiliary artifact Ning Rongrong.

Everyone at Shrek Academy felt a little embarrassed, let alone the Botanical Academy. Especially their team leader looked dumbfounded when he saw Mu Jing among the players.

It was originally my student's, but now it has become someone else's, and it has been turned against my family.

But all this was done voluntarily, so the teacher leading the group didn’t know whether to be angry or cry.

The competition started soon. Under Tang San's rhythm control, and the flames of Mu Jing and Ma Hongjun restrained all the Botanical Academy students, even though they had a Soul King, they quickly fell behind.

Then, after everyone worked together to eliminate the Soul King, the victory of this game was firmly grasped by Shrek Academy.

When they knocked the last student from the Botanical College off the stage, the referee announced their victory.

Since Mu Jing was from the Botanical College before, when the seven monsters attacked, they only used a gentler method to send the people from the Botanical College off the competition stage, never letting them get hurt, and thus saving face for the Botanical College.

However, compared to the embarrassment of the rest of Shrek, Tang Liu, who did not come to the field and stayed to watch the match, was still in a more solemn mood.

Because, if he remembered correctly, in the original book, the third round of Shrek Academy's competition, under the secret operation of Wuhun Palace, was against the Star Luo Royal Academy of Advanced Soul Masters.

Then, the Tiandou Royal Academy team, also a seed team, faced off against the Spirit Hall Advanced Soul Master Academy.

But now, neither game is happening.

Doesn't that mean.

What has quietly changed?

But Tang Liu had an inexplicable intuition, as if this change was aimed at him.

After all, this way, he would have no so-called plot advantage.

If the changes were more severe, it would be completely different from the original work in his memory. Then, like every native Douluo Continent resident, he will know nothing about the future.

Even if he can guess what will happen in the future based on the plots he knows and various news on the mainland.

But that won't necessarily be accurate after all.

Completely opposite to his previous situation.

Because everything before was inevitable, what he knew was bound to happen.

So what now?

Tang Liu thought carefully.

It seems...it's not that important.

Because no matter what, they will meet the team from Wuhun Palace, and then Xingluo and Tiandou will definitely meet one.

Of course, we do not rule out facing two seeded teams one after another.

It is not the idea that soldiers will come to block it, and water will come and earth will cover it.

However, whether it follows the original work or not is really not that important to him.

His only goal now is to win the final championship.

In this case, it doesn't matter who the opponent is.

You have to win anyway.

Tang Liu suddenly reacted.

So he is... a Buddha, right?

Tang Liu: "Well..."

After figuring it out, Shrek's game was over, so Tang Liu immediately teleported back and started practicing, seizing every last minute and second.

…

After the third round of competition, there were only twenty-four academies left.

After two more rounds, the top sixteen for the finals will be selected.

In the last two remaining games, Shrek still did not encounter a strong opponent, and Tang Liu was even replaced by Mu Jing. Even so, Shrek easily won the last two knockout rounds and successfully entered the top sixteen.

As for Tang Liu, he spent all his time on improving his soul power.

Sixteen teams took a day off before continuing the competition.

However, the sixteen-to-eight competition mechanism turned into a round-robin system, and then the top eight teams were selected based on the points earned by each team at the end.

In other words, each of the sixteen teams will play four games. Each team will get a certain number of points for each victory. Finally, the top eight teams will enter the quarterfinals.

Similarly, this also means that from now on, Shrek may encounter three seed teams in a row in the four-round round robin.

This is undoubtedly the worst situation.

After the game started, Shrek Academy's opponent in the first round-robin match was not strong, so Tang Liu still did not play and was replaced by Tang Liu.

But in the second round, they met a seeded team.

Tiandou Royal Academy team.

So Tang Liu was sent out this time.

Although they met a seeded player, with Tang Liu, there was no need to arrange any tactics for this match. Anyway, the master's advice to them was to reduce the exposure of their own strength and let Tang Liu handle everything as much as possible.

Judging from the current known information, the eighth member of the Tiandou Royal Academy team is also a Soul Emperor.

If Qin Ming had not chosen to withdraw from Tiandou Royal Academy, he should be the eighth member of the Tiandou Royal Academy team now.

Although Qin Ming's soul ring is not the best match, it is also from Shrek Academy, which proves that his strength is by no means weak. There are only some existences that can bring some trouble to Tang Liu.

Only now, the eighth member of the Tiandou Royal Academy team is not Qin Ming, but another Soul Emperor teacher from the Tiandou Royal Academy who is not more than thirty years old.

It can be seen from the previous games of the Tiandou Royal Academy team that their soul emperor is also not the best soul ring match, so his strength should not be as strong as Qin Ming, who was born in Shrek.

That being the case, winning this game shouldn't be difficult. What's more, Shrek Academy also defeated them once before.

Moreover, this time Tang Liu, whom they were unfamiliar with, appeared on the scene.
