Chapter 107.2: The Semifinals Lineup!
Wang Yan said, However, the Imperial Mystical Academy from the Heavenly Soul Empire is also our rival. Only us, the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, and the Imperial Mystical Academy have soul emperors amongst everyone in the tournament. The Imperial Mystical Academy is the royal academy of the Heavenly Soul Empire. All the royal members of the empire will enter the academy to learn. Their lineup for this tournament is very strong: 1 soul emperor and 6 soul kings. However, soul masters are their main force. Their soul engineers will provide support to their soul masters. Among their 7 official team members, 2 of their soul kings are soul engineers. From my observations, they shouldnt even be Class 5 soul engineers, and are instead most likely Class 4 like He Caitou.
Our last opponent is the Star Luo National Academy from the Star Luo Empire. Among these 3 rivals, the Star Luo National Academy is the weakest. But this doesnt necessarily mean that they are the easiest to deal with. This is the Star Luo Empire, their home turf. Furthermore, the overall power of the Star Luo National Academy isnt that weak either. Although they dont have a soul emperor to hold down the fort, they still have up to 6 soul kings. Things have gone smoothly for them so far, or at least, theyre finding it smoother than us.
The last 2 rounds will be very tedious for us. Even though we have two soul emperorsXiaotao and Yuehengour rivals still possess a greater overall strength in numbers. Their overall abilities arent inferior to ours. The Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy and Imperial Mystical Academy are even somewhat superior to us in terms of overall abilities. The only well become champions is by giving it our all. Its like the first time we faced Justsky Academy.
Wang Yan didnt sound relaxed at all. Everyone from Shrek Academy also felt heavy in their hearts.
Indeed! Even though they had two soul emperors and Ling Luochen, who was a control-type soul king, their preparatory team members were still much weaker than their rivals.
Among their 4 soul ancestors, Xu Sanshis soul power was only Rank 47. The rest were even worse. As for the last 3, Wang Dong was only a soul elder, Xiao Xiao had barely become a soul elder, and Huo Yuhao was only a soul grandmaster. While they all had twin martial souls, their cultivations were still very weak! How much could they truly contribute in the top-ranked team competition of the tournament?
According to Wang Yans arrangements in the previous round, it was more likely that Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong wouldnt participate in the team battle. Even if the two of them were sent out together, it would still pull Shrek Academys overall power down. Although Huo Yuhaos soul skill was very practical, and the Golden Road was a rather decent crowd-control skill, could their powers be fully unleashed against tough opponents? This was also under the circumstance that their opponents were entirely unaware of their capabilities.
Wang Yan swept his gaze from left to right. He naturally realized that not everyone was fully confident. He gently said, I didnt expect us to become the champions ever since the day we came to Star Luo City, as were not champion material. Im already extremely satisfied that weve made it this far. All of your hard work is clear for everyone to see. All of you have already preserved Shreks glory, thus I hope that all of you wont be pressured in the upcoming competition. Whatever the result, I will ask for all of you to receive merits when we return.
Wang Yans words sounded normal to Huo Yuhao and the rest of the preparatory team members, as they had indeed sacrificed quite a lot. However, his words sounded a bit piercing to Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng, and Ling Luochen.
