Chapter 250: I Don't Do Gay

The preliminary rounds continued, and after the tenth round concluded, the various teams participating in the Heaven Dou City preliminaries had already begun to pull apart in the standings.

Shrek Academy, with a proud record of ten wins and zero losses, ranked first without any room for dispute.

There were several other teams with the same record, namely the other four of the Five Elements Academies, excluding the Elephant Armored Sect.

Elephant Armor Academy was rather unlucky, having encountered several other element academies and suffering defeat each time.

Aside from Thunder Academy and Shenfeng Academy, the team that sparked heated discussion this time was Tianshui Academy, because all of their members were beautiful girls, and their leader was actually the vice-captain; just like Shrek Academy, their true captain had never stepped onto the stage.

Many people suspected that the true captain of Tianshui Academy was a great beauty on the level of Shui Bing'er...

This day, the match against Blazing Academy finally arrived.

"This time, I suggest changing the lineup; you seven must field at least five to ensure we remain undefeated."

In the waiting room, Grandmaster said solemnly: "The other element academies today are no longer using Extreme Flow tactics; they are even more troublesome than Elephant Armor Academy."

Tang San raised his hand impatiently: "Teacher, let me play."

But Qin Jian blocked his hand with an effortless, calm air and laughed: "Grandmaster, Blazing Academy... *cough*... is nothing to worry about. I have a way; we just need to use the original lineup."

Grandmaster had not yet grasped his meaning.

Zhu Zhuqing swept a cold gaze over, her hands truly crossed over her chest: "Don't tell me you intend to use a honey trap?"

"That's right, Huo Wu is Blazing Academy's Control System Soul Master after all. If she defects, then victory is indeed guaranteed."

Ning Rongrong was expressionless, her tone cool.

Xiao Wu curled her lip: "You fickle flirt."

Don't look at how the three of them no longer created an Asura Field between themselves now; when facing outsiders, they became exceptionally united, and the Shrek Trio was unbreakable.

Qin Jian wiped sweat from his brow: "Huo Wu wouldn't do such a thing. She has deep feelings for Blazing Academy, and she works hard at her cultivation to bring honor to the academy. She shouldn't hold back..."

"You seem to know Huo Wu very well."

Zhu Zhuqing activated her martial soul, her fingernails lengthening, and she rubbed them together, producing the sound of metal clashing.

Qin Jian felt a chill run through his entire body.

"Hey, hey, hey, with a great enemy at the gates, can you not focus your attention on such things?" Qin Jian said.

Ning Rongrong huffed: "What great enemy at the gates? Clearly, it's all love rivals at the gates. Next, there's still Tianshui Academy!"

Qin Jian: "......"

Grandmaster was expressionless.

He always felt that the Elite Soul Master Tournament, which everyone had looked forward to for so long, had started to become strange now that Qin Jian had joined.

Why had the desire to seize the championship decreased, while the anticipation for the Asura Field was so full...

It was completely chaotic!

"First round, central arena, Shrek Academy versus Blazing Academy."

The host announced the list of participating members in a loud voice.

The members of both sides walked onto the field.

"Whoa oh oh oh!"

In an instant, the entire spectator stand had surged like a stormy ocean, with cheers rising and falling one after another.

"Shrek Academy——"

"Blazing Academy! Go!"

Most of the male audience supported Blazing Academy, while the female audience naturally supported Shrek Academy.

This distinct, clear-cut cheering was also entirely Qin Jian's doing, because the scene of him being surrounded by beautiful girls earlier was simply too provocative, causing most of the male audience to feel displeased.

And the female audience naturally didn't look at that; they looked at the performance on the field, at who was more powerful and dazzling, and, well, at who had higher looks...

The last one was the most critical, because looks are justice!

Consequently, the male audience who hadn't been targeting Qin Jian before also had their hatred maxed out because of the female audience's support...

Qin Jian still walked at the very front, with Tailong and Huang Yuan on his left and right, Jing Ling, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing behind, and Jiang Zhu standing at the very back.

Opposite them, Blazing Academy took Huo Wu as the core and stood in the most stable triangular formation.

Huo Wushuang, as the arrowhead, stood at the very front, positioned opposite Qin Jian.

"Qin Jian, finally waited for this day..."

Huo Wushuang rubbed his fists and twisted his neck, making a *crack* sound: "Do you know how long I've waited?"

"What are you waiting for me for..."

Qin Jian stood with a solemn expression, holding his palm up in front of him: "Sorry, I don't do gay."

Huo Wushuang: "?"

Huo Lie couldn't help but say: "Qin Jian, don't be arrogant. We know your Third Soul Skill and Fourth Soul Skill like the back of our hands. With Huo Wu's Ring of Fire Repulsion, don't think you can deal with us like you did with Elephant Armor Academy!"

"That's right, that's right, just obediently get beaten up!" Huo Yun and Huo Yu, the brother and sister, rubbed their palms together.

Huo Chui and Huo Jun, the two Support System members, also had faces full of anticipation: "Wushuang, hurry up and beat him according to our tactics!"

"As long as Huo Wu doesn't defect on the spot, then there's no problem," Huo Wushuang said full of confidence.

Qin Jian smiled and looked up toward Huo Wu in the center: "You want to beat me too?"

The golden-red team uniform looked perfect on her, and paired with her dark red long hair, she herself was as eye-catching as a flame that could melt any man.

Huo Wu's red lips curved, her eyes filled with a smile: "This is a competition between academies after all, don't you think I'd show favoritism."

Watching Qin Jian, who had already been hit by a wave of verbal fire from the opposite side before the battle even started, the six people including Tailong and Huang Yuan once again felt that they had no presence at all.

The entire audience and the members of other academies also watched with great interest; they really had never seen someone who could so easily draw the hatred of an entire team by himself...

"The match begins!"

Following the referee's command, the members of both sides moved at the very first moment.

The entire Blazing Academy had no other target; everyone rushed toward Qin Jian, using their First and Second Soul Skills in a dazzling display, and the entire Douhun Tai was suddenly red, fiery, and dizzying—an extremely festive color.

"Swish!"

Qin Jian also charged forward with his sword, and to everyone's surprise, he bypassed Huo Wushuang directly and broke into the center.

Huo Wushuang wanted to pursue him, but was blocked by Tailong and Huang Yuan.

"The primary target is actually me?"

Huo Wu curled her lips: "Heartless man, hmph, Repulsive Fire Ring!"

Seeing Qin Jian approaching and knowing the terror of his Third Soul Skill, Huo Wu used Repulsive Fire Ring directly.

"Bang!"

The silent fire ring suddenly expanded, actually pushing away all the other Shrek team members who were closing in.

"Swish!"

Of course, Qin Jian, who knew Huo Wu best, had already thrown his martial soul into the air above Huo Wu, and with one martial soul Position Swapping, he dodged the attack of the Repulsive Fire Ring.

Watching Qin Jian descend from the air, pouncing straight toward her.

Huo Wu couldn't help but laugh: "Qin Jian, I didn't expect you to fall for a trap too."

"Hmm?"

Qin Jian looked back and saw Huo Wushuang and the others taking advantage of the effect of the Repulsive Fire Ring to return all at once, surrounding him completely.

"This is called capturing the ringleader first!"

Huo Wushuang's whole body erupted with fire, and he said excitedly: "Qin Jian! I knew you would deal with Huo Wu first; we were waiting for you to penetrate deep into our lines alone from the very beginning!"

"Brother Jian!"

The Shrek members hurried over, but an unavoidable gap of a few seconds was created, and during this time, Qin Jian had to face the attacks of this Blazing Academy alone.

It looked like he was at his wit's end and bound to lose...
