Chapter 181: Acquaintances Have Arrived

The soul fighting continued. Over the next month, the Shrek Seven Devils made quite a name for themselves in the sub-arenas of the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena.

Within a month, the Shrek Seven Devils had participated in twenty-seven team soul fights, winning twenty-seven out of twenty-seven, and were surprisingly without a match in the Level 30 bracket.

In the individual competitions, the "Three Swords" combination also achieved a stellar record of twenty-seven consecutive wins, with Qin Jian's powerful soul skills always leaving his opponents helpless.

There were internal matches during this time, but whether facing Tang San and Ma Hongjun or Tang San and Oscar, they still achieved victory; this was partly due to Tang San being unable to unleash his full strength, and partly because his combinations simply lacked the tacit understanding of the male-female pairing on Qin Jian's side.

As for the individual competitions, the Shrek Seven Devils were on a winning streak across the board.

Qin Jian and Tang San achieved twenty-seven consecutive wins at Level 30.

Ma Hongjun was also making waves in the Level 20 bracket, with twenty-three wins out of twenty-seven matches.

Zhu Zhuqing's individual competition record was no less impressive, with one more win than Ma Hongjun.

Xiao Wu fared a bit worse; although her Teleportation was very special, she encountered opponents who happened to counter her abilities several times, resulting in only twenty wins.

Calculating it this way, Qin Jian became the biggest winner; although the consecutive win counts for the three different forms of soul fighting in the Great Spirit Arena are calculated separately, his points still soared dramatically thanks to his multiple winning streaks.

If not for the Great Spirit Arena's regulation that the increased points from consecutive wins are only tallied at the end of the month, he would have long since moved past the simple Iron Spirit Badge.

Despite this, the Shrek Seven Devils' stunning performance still caught the attention of the Great Spirit Arena; if not for their Spirit Fighting Badge ranks being too low to meet the minimum requirement of a Silver Spirit Soul Badge for the Central Arena, they likely would have already been invited to participate in the soul fighting matches at the Central Main Arena of the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena.

Nothing particularly special happened this month other than the soul fighting; for Qin Jian, the only thing that counted was receiving a letter from Dai Mubai, but the matter mentioned in the letter was not urgent, so he did not need to consider it for the time being.

The Shrek Seven Devils happened to arrive at the Great Spirit Arena for soul fighting on the second day of the month, and since the month had thirty days in total, after resting for one day, the month-long period finally came to an end after today's soul fighting concluded.

At that time, their additional bonus points would be calculated simultaneously, and by then, they would definitely no longer be holding their current Iron Spirit Badges.

As night fell, the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena, located in the bustling center of Soto City, was once again brightly lit.

All of them entered the soul fighting arena separately.

Because after this month of soul fighting, the Shrek Seven Devils had achieved impressive results and naturally became the focus of the audience's attention.

Now they were the biggest traffic-generating group in Soto City; not only did they have their own fan clubs, but even children were role-playing as the Shrek Team.

Such a scene always made Qin Jian think of the Tianshui Team; if the seven of them appeared here, surely the traffic would be ten times that of Shrek, after all, they were a girl group…

And this final day of soul fighting was also extremely special; there were no variables due to Qin Jian's arrival, because the opponents who appeared were the Imperial Fighting Team.

Because the Great Spirit Arena could not find any other opponents, they simply promoted the Shrek Team to the Silver Spirit Soul Badge level and arranged for this match to take place in the Central Great Spirit Arena.

Inside the lounge.

Grandmaster raised his hand and tapped the spread-out data scroll on the table, saying with a solemn expression, "Alright, let's study your opponents first. For you, this will be an extremely difficult soul fight."

Everyone looked down and read through it. Except for Qin Jian, who was currently Level 39, the others couldn't help but gasp, feeling a chill in their hearts.

Qin Jian looked carefully, and sure enough, it was not much different from his memories.

Captain Yu Tianheng was Level 39, Vice-Captain Dugu Yan was Level 38, the brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo were Level 38 and Level 37 respectively, the two Agility Attack types Yu Feng and Oslo were Level 36, and there was also a super healer, Ye Lingling, at Level 35.

"Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan…"

Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong looked at each other, clearly both thinking of the Soul Hunting Ground incident from back then.

At that time, Yu Tianxin wanted to intercept Dugu Yan precisely because his cousin Yu Tianheng was at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, and Qin Jian also became involved with the Poison Douluo because he helped Dugu Yan, eventually exchanging the Qiluo Tulip for the price of being poisoned.

Ning Rongrong's face was full of memories, her brows and eyes becoming soft…

"I know their captain and vice-captain; they are both from the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy…"

Qin Jian walked to the center of the group, and his words attracted everyone's attention: "So this Imperial Fighting Team, with their perfect soul ring configurations and such high levels, is undoubtedly the team from the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy."

As soon as he said this, Oscar and the others, who were already uneasy, became even more nervous.

Grandmaster nodded and said, "I originally had such a suspicion, and with your judgment, it can basically be confirmed. Qin Jian…"

He turned to Qin Jian and said, "Xiao San's Hidden Weapons and Eight Spider Lances are still inconvenient to use. This time you will experience a bitter battle, but unless it is an absolute last resort, I do not want you to concede."

Seeing that even Grandmaster did not favor their side, Tang San frowned and asked, "Teacher, are we really unable to defeat our opponents?"

Grandmaster looked at him and said, "The chance is only fifty percent, and the opportunity lies with Qin Jian. Many things on you, Xiao San, can only serve as trump cards and cannot be displayed in front of others at will; after all, an innocent man may be punished for his wealth."

He raised his hand again and pointed to the data on the table: "The seven people on the other side, according to the data, are a very complete combination. The two people you must pay the most attention to are their captain and vice-captain, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit Master and the Jade Phosphorus Snake Spirit Master."

"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is easy to handle; I have no problem taking him on head-on…"

Qin Jian's words made Tang San and the others breathe a sigh of relief, but he then added, "It's just that this Jade Phosphorus Snake Spirit Master, Dugu Yan, is actually the granddaughter of the Poison Douluo. I cannot deal with this poison."

"Poison Douluo?!"

Everyone was shocked.

"Qin Jian, she is a Control System Soul Master, so what does she use to control the field?" Tang San asked.

Qin Jian spread his hands and said, "Of course, she uses poison to control the field, so the key to dealing with her lies with you. Besides…"

He paused, then pointed his hand at Ye Lingling: "This Nine Heart Begonia Spirit Master is actually the one we need to pay the most attention to. If there is a chance, take her out first."

"Why?" Tang San asked.

Qin Jian looked at Ning Rongrong, and Ning Rongrong stepped forward and said, "My father told us about this Nine Heart Begonia martial soul. It is always passed down through a single line; only when one of the two Nine Heart Begonia martial soul holders dies can it continue to be inherited. It is a miracle among martial souls."

She said in a deep voice, "The Nine Heart Begonia only has one specialty: area-of-effect group Healing. My father said that with a Nine Heart Begonia Spirit Master present, it is not easy to die even if you want to!"

Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Grandmaster's expression seemed to stiffen as well.

He stood blankly for a long time before slowly saying, "This is indeed a nearly perfect combination. Now your winning percentage has dropped to only thirty percent…"
