Chapter 606 A Severely Deviation in the Trajectory of Fate
Tang San launched many attacks against Hu Yanli this time, but the overall duration was not long.
From charging forward on the Ghostly Shadow Trail, unleashing the Haotian Hammer, to using the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique, stacking eighty-one hammer blows, and finally smashing Hu Yanli with a single blow, sending two Soul Master students above level 40 from the Elephant Armor Academy team flying.
All in all, it only took a short minute.
But in that short minute, Tang San single-handedly dismantled the three strongest forces of the Elephant Armor Academy team, leaving an incredibly deep impression on every audience member present.
The sudden defeat of the Elephant Armor Academy team shocked and disbelieved almost all the spectators present, and there was even a moment of silence in the arena.
Many people looked confused.
They couldn't quite understand why the seven members of the Elephant Armor Academy team, whose martial souls were all top-tier defensive martial souls—the Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul—and who also possessed powerful items like soul bones, were clearly stronger than their opponents overall. So how did they end up losing?
Not only were the spectators confused, but many VIPs in the stands were also bewildered, their expressions blank.
It wasn't until Gu Rong, the Bone Douluo with the highest cultivation level present, spoke that everyone's confusion dissipated, and they understood the reason behind it:
"Logically speaking, it should have been impossible for the Shrek Seven Devils to break through the defensive formation of the Elephant Armor Academy team led by Hu Yanli, but they still managed to do it."
Why? Because they adopted the most correct tactic—to break through the overall defense by focusing on key points and maximizing their strengths while minimizing their weaknesses.
"Normal offensive methods certainly cannot break through the formation of the Elephant Academy team; only by breaking through the formation by targeting specific points will we have a chance."
"Beat one of them first, so that the Elephant Armor Academy team's seven-person defensive formation is incomplete and becomes imperfect, then it will be much easier to deal with the others."
"And this is precisely the strength of the Shrek Seven Devils team: outstanding offensive capabilities and superb control abilities. Achieving this is not difficult."
"That's exactly what the Shrek Seven Devils just did."
"Once the seven-person defensive formation of the Elephant Armor Academy team is broken, the scales of victory will naturally tip in favor of the Shrek Seven Devils."
After a pause, Bone Douluo continued:
"The Elephant Armor Academy team, led by Hu Yanli, consists of three Elephant Armor Sect disciples of level 40 or above and four Soul Venerable disciples. The defensive formation formed by the seven of them is indeed powerful, but apart from their extremely strong strength and defense, they have huge shortcomings in other aspects."
"The most obvious weakness is agility and speed."
"This highlights the importance of control-type Soul Masters. In team battles, slow-moving defense-type Soul Masters are undoubtedly the best targets in front of control-type Soul Masters."
"It must be said that Tang San's role was crucial."
"He almost brought his on-the-spot command, control of the situation, and self-control to the extreme, easily breaking through the defensive system of the Elephant Armor Academy team."
"Although there are three formidable Soul Master opponents left, including Hu Yanli who possesses a Soul Bone, don't forget that Tang San is a twin Martial Soul holder. His other Martial Soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, the inherited Martial Soul of the Clear Sky Sect."
"If I'm not mistaken, the hammer technique Tang San just used should be one of the Clear Sky Sect's ultimate techniques, the Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique."
"In that case, it's not impossible for the Shrek Seven Devils team to defeat the Elephant Armor Academy team."
After listening to Bone Douluo's explanation, the VIPs sitting in the second and third rows of the VIP seats suddenly realized and began to whisper among themselves.
A faint smile appeared on Ning Fengzhi's face as he looked at the Shrek Seven Devils on the competition stage. He secretly admired them, especially when his gaze fell on Tang San, which made him even more satisfied.
Indeed, befriending Tang San and investing in him was an extremely wise decision.
Some were pleased and satisfied, while others were furious.
boom--
Just then, a loud bang came from the side.
Then, the Elephant Armor Sect Master, Hu Yanzhen, slammed his hand on the armrest of his chair and stood up abruptly. Perhaps the force of his hand was too great, or perhaps he stood up too suddenly, causing the sofa chair made of two chairs joined together to shatter with a loud crash.
Watching helplessly as his eldest grandson was utterly defeated by the remnants of the Haotian Sect, Huyan Zhen's face was extremely ugly, and his large, bell-like eyes seemed to be spitting fire.
Especially when he saw Tang San, full of murderous intent, dragging the Clear Sky Hammer and continuing to walk forward regardless of everything, seemingly still unwilling to let go of his unconscious Changsun.
His heart was filled with icy coldness, and his whole body was overflowing with murderous intent, as if he wanted to rush onto the stage and kill Tang San in one fell swoop.
However, Hu Yanzhen did not act rashly.
Although he is physically strong, he is not simple-minded. This is the venue of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, and there are many experts around. If he makes the first move, it is hard to guarantee that he will not cause controversy and be attacked.
His dramatic movements had drawn the attention of all the VIPs in the VIP section, and everyone was watching him.
Moreover, Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo were also present, seemingly having guessed his thoughts, and were staring at him with narrowed eyes and a half-smile.
These two treacherous guys will absolutely not let him cause trouble here.
Hu Yanzhen's face was gloomy as he tried his best to suppress the impulse rising in his heart, but he was also prepared to rush onto the stage at any time.
If Tang San dares to show even the slightest sign of making a move, then he won't care about any competition or rules; he will definitely go on stage to save his grandson Huyan Li.
If he could, he would also take the opportunity to kill that remnant of the Haotian Sect.
…………
At this moment.
On the main center's Soul Fighting Arena.
Tang San was unaware that his actions had provoked Hu Yanzhen's murderous intent. His reason was overwhelmed by extreme emotions such as hatred and resentment, and his mind was filled with the desire to avenge Xiao Wu.
Ignoring Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng's attempts to stop him, Tang San dragged the Clear Sky Hammer and continued step by step toward Hu Yanli, who had already fainted and lost the ability to fight, determined to carry out his path to death to the very end.
"Calm down, mistress!"
Just then, a deep voice suddenly rang in Tang San's mind.
"Father, father?"
A deep, resonant voice exploded in his mind like thunder. Tang San's body trembled, his steps faltered, and his mind regained a sliver of clarity. He quickly discerned a familiar meaning in the voice.
It came from his own father, Tang Hao.
"Calm your mind, control your killing intent, and don't let anger cloud your judgment."
Tang Hao's deep voice rang out once again.
"But Xiao Wu, she..."
Tang San instinctively wanted to refuse, but his rationality had not fully returned, and he still harbored the thought of avenging Xiao Wu.
But Tang Hao seemed to know what he was thinking and immediately said:
"Don't worry, Xiao Wu, she's just seriously injured and not in any danger. She can recover as long as she finds a healing-type Soul Master to treat her. It just takes a little time."
Hearing Tang Hao say this, Tang San finally calmed down, quickly composed himself, suppressed the murderous intent surging in his heart, and the red light in his eyes gradually subsided.
"By the way, Father, why did your voice suddenly appear?"
After regaining his senses, Tang San realized that his father's voice had appeared out of thin air in his mind, but he couldn't see his father's figure around him.
Confused, Tang San immediately wanted to ask the question.
But before he could finish speaking, Tang Hao's deep voice resounded in his mind:
"I am speaking to you using my soul power."
Upon hearing this, Tang San instinctively wanted to show surprise, but Tang Hao's next words silenced him:
"Don't show anything unusual; I don't want to give myself away."
"Although soul power transmission is discreet, it is not absolutely safe. There are Title Douluo-level beings present, so it is hard to guarantee that it will not be detected."
"Alright, that's enough for now. I can't tell you too much."
"Killing is forbidden in the Elite Soul Master Tournament. Don't ruin things in a moment of impulse. Remember this lesson. If you want to protect Xiao Wu, then work hard to become stronger."
"This elite Soul Master competition is perfect for honing your Soul Skills and improving your combat abilities."
After saying his last words, Tang Hao's voice fell silent, leaving Tang San feeling a sense of loss.
Just then, Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng's words of persuasion rang in his ears.
Tang San turned his head left and right and saw the two people's faces with furrowed brows and a hint of tension.
"Little San, don't be impulsive. Don't forget the rules of the Elite Soul Master Tournament."
Dai Mubai pressed down hard on Tang San's left shoulder, trying to persuade him.
"Yes, Tang San, I understand your desire to avenge Xiao Wu, but this is the Elite Soul Master Competition. If we break the rules, we'll both be in deep trouble."
Yu Tianheng also pressed down hard on Tang San's right shoulder to stop him from going any further, while also saying a word of advice.
"Alright, Mu Bai, Tian Heng, I'm fine, you can let me go now."
Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng looked at each other in surprise, and found that Tang San seemed to have returned to normal and finally slowly let go of their hands.
Tang San shook his head, ignoring the two, and casually withdrew the Clear Sky Hammer that had been formed in his left hand. He then turned to look at the referee who was hosting and supervising the match:
"Referee, can we announce the result now?"
The referee glanced left and right at the dented and cracked arena, which was now teetering on the verge of collapse, and his eye twitched violently.
However, after confirming that all seven members of the Elephant Armor Academy had lost consciousness and were no longer capable of standing up and continuing the fight, the winner of the match had to be announced:
"In the first match of the fourth round of the preliminary rounds, the Shrek Seven Devils team from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy won, accumulating one point."
Upon hearing the referee's announcement, Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng, who were still standing on the field, Yu Xiaogang, Flander, Qin Ming, and Ning Rongrong, who were watching from below the stage, and even the three substitute players who were just there to make up the numbers, couldn't help but show a smile.
Oscar, who was unharmed except for a bump on his head, jumped high and let out a joyful "Awoo!"
Although he did not personally participate in the entire battle, the recovery sausages and flying mushroom sausages he provided were equally crucial to victory.
Everyone was happy for the victory, but Tang San, who was standing on the stage with Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng, was not happy at all.
At this moment, he only felt a wave of dizziness. The injuries he had sustained from his previous fierce battle with Hu Yanli finally erupted violently.
With a mouthful of blood spitting out, Tang San collapsed cleanly onto the Soul Fighting Stage.
Yu Xiaogang and the others were thrown into chaos. They rushed onto the stage, carried the injured and unconscious Tang San and the others off, and sent them for treatment.
On the other side, Hu Yanzhen and his men also brought back the seven members of Elephant Armor Academy. After treatment by the official healing-type Soul Master of the competition, they quickly regained consciousness.
They are defensive-type Soul Masters, and among them, the Diamond Mammoth Soul Masters are the most outstanding defensive-type Soul Masters, possessing extremely strong defensive capabilities.
Even when facing the Shrek Seven Devils, a team with outstanding offensive capabilities, the injuries they sustained were not serious, mostly just superficial wounds.
Of course, except for Hu Yanli.
After being relentlessly hammered by Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer, and finally colliding head-on with the Chaotic Cloak whose attack power was stacked to the extreme, even though he had a head soul bone protecting him, the injuries he suffered were still quite serious.
It is unlikely that he will fully recover in the short term.
As for Tang San and the others from the Shrek Seven Devils, they weren't so lucky.
Given their injuries, they definitely won't wake up for at least a short while.
…………
The match between the Shrek Seven Devils and Elephant Armor Academy has ended.
But the preliminary rounds were not over yet, and the matches on the other four battle stages began one after another, quickly drawing the attention of the excited audience.
The event organizers are working hard to repair and rebuild the severely damaged main arena in preparation for the next important match.
Inside the rest room specially equipped for the Spirit Hall's second team.
To be honest, Ye Qifeng was a little surprised after watching the Shrek Seven Devils' match against Elephant Armor Academy.
The main problem is that the course of the match has deviated far from the original trajectory of fate, and it is completely different from what he remembered it should be like.
According to the original course of fate, the Shrek Seven Devils should have won the match unscathed and with great ease.
But now it seems that Shrek Academy paid a huge price to barely defeat Elephant Armor Academy. Not only were Xiao Wu and Ma Hongjun seriously injured, but even Tang San fainted.
Of course, this is nothing.
Thinking about it carefully, it's understandable; there's nothing surprising about it.
After all, Zhu Zhuqing had already been abducted by him, and without Zhu Zhuqing, an important combatant, the Shrek Seven Devils would lose their Netherworld White Tiger martial soul fusion skill.
There is no other way to completely defeat Elephant Armor Academy except for Tang San to take action personally.
However, the Eight Spider Lances, which should have belonged to Tang San, ended up in Meng Yiran's hands because of his interference. All Tang San could use was his second spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer.
With a slight thought, Ye Qifeng understood the logic and reason behind it, and therefore was not particularly surprised.
What surprised him was the fighting spirit displayed by the Elephant Armor Academy.
Especially Hu Yanli, as a defensive-type Soul Master, actually took the initiative to attack after realizing the danger, choosing to confront Tang San's Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique head-on in order to gain a sliver of a chance to win.
This was something Ye Qifeng hadn't expected.
Although the final outcome was not good and he still ended in failure, at least he chose to take the initiative instead of standing still and taking a beating.
This shows that he has guts and is also quite intelligent, knowing how to be flexible and adaptable, and not letting his status as a defensive-type Soul Master restrict his actions.
This is a talent worth nurturing. Ye Qifeng couldn't help but feel a sense of admiration.
