Chapter 57: The Continental Elite Spirit Master Tournament

Zhexian walked toward the group of people who were discussing heatedly, the sounds of their excited debate reaching his ears.

"This team called Shrek Academy is simply unstoppable, they've fought their way almost to the finals!" a middle-aged man said excitedly.

"That's not necessarily true! The next opponent Shrek Academy faces is the Imperial Fighting Team from Tiandou Royal Academy, who have been crushing their opponents just like Shrek Academy," another young man retorted.

"Hmph, they're just a bunch of noble children, who knows what kind of shady business is going on! You should know that Tang San of the Shrek Seven Devils has a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring as his fourth Soul Ring!" the middle-aged man waved his hand dismissively.

Zhexian listened quietly, his expression indifferent, seemingly unconcerned by these discussions.

Tianmeng Bingcan, however, shrank behind him, cautiously poked his head out, and muttered in a low voice, "Great God, the Shrek Seven Devils and the Imperial Fighting Team they're talking about seem really powerful..."

Zhexian did not respond, but his gaze shifted slightly, as if he had developed a sliver of interest in the name Tang San.

He remembered seeing this youth at Tiandou Royal Academy a few years ago; his talent was decent, and he possessed a temperament not belonging to his age.

"Let's go, to Spirit City." Zhexian spoke indifferently and turned to walk toward the direction of the city gates.

Tianmeng Bingcan was startled and hurriedly followed: "Great God, are we going to watch the match? I heard this is the grandest Soul Master Tournament on the entire continent for humans!"

"Mm." Zhexian said without looking back.

Tianmeng Bingcan scratched his head; although he was curious, he dared not ask more and could only obediently follow behind Zhexian.

"Ah!!!"

Not long after he left, a scream rang out from behind him.

The man who had just mocked the Imperial Fighting Team was instantly swallowed by flames... the extreme heat of the flames made the surrounding people quickly scramble away.

This fire could not be extinguished at all, and it even burned soul power.

The crowd could only watch helplessly as the man was soon burned to ashes...

The two traveled rapidly, soon leaving Tiandou City and flying toward the direction of Spirit City.

Although Tianmeng Bingcan's speed was not as great as Zhexian's, by relying on his own soul power as a Million Year Soul Beast, he could barely keep up with Zhexian's pace by giving it his all.

During the flight, Tianmeng Bingcan couldn't help but ask: "Great God, what are you going to Spirit City for? Are you really going to watch the match?"

Zhexian glanced at him indifferently and said, "Mm."

"Do you know the Shrek Seven Devils or the Imperial Fighting Team?" Tianmeng Bingcan asked curiously.

Zhexian did not answer, only increasing his speed. Seeing this, Tianmeng Bingcan dared not ask further and could only follow along in silence.

Before long, the two arrived at Spirit City.

At this moment, Spirit City was even livelier than Tiandou City; the streets were packed with Soul Masters and spectators from all over, everyone's gaze focused on the upcoming match.

Zhexian brought Tianmeng Bingcan into Spirit City quietly, without attracting anyone's attention.

With a flash of his figure, he brought Tianmeng Bingcan to the top of a high tower, overlooking the Arena below. Tianmeng Bingcan lay on the top of the tower, poking his head out to look down, muttering: "Great God, this place has a really good view! We won't be discovered, will we?"

Zhexian glanced at him indifferently and said, "Quiet."

Tianmeng Bingcan immediately shut his mouth, shrank his neck, and dared not speak another word.

At this time, inside the Arena, the Shrek Seven Devils and the Imperial Fighting Team were already standing in position, both sides full of momentum and intense fighting spirit.

In the spectator stands, the cheers were deafening, and everyone was looking forward to this peak showdown.

Following the referee's order, the match officially began!

The members of both sides quickly stood their ground, confronting each other, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.

On the Shrek Seven Devils' side, Dai Mubai stepped forward first, his gaze like a torch, and said loudly: "Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai, martial soul White Tiger, forty-fifth-level Power Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor!"

Following closely, Tang San stepped forward, his expression calm yet carrying a trace of confidence: "Shrek Academy, Tang San, martial soul Blue Silver Grass, fortieth-level Control System Battle Soul Ancestor."

Xiao Wu hopped forward gracefully with a playful smile: "Shrek Academy, Xiao Wu, martial soul Soft Bone Rabbit, fortieth-level Power Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor."

Ma Hongjun puffed out his chest, his flame-like hair dazzling under the sunlight: "Shrek Academy, Ma Hongjun, martial soul Evil Fire Phoenix, forty-second-level Power Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor."

Zhu Zhuqing stood to the side, cold and elegant, her voice chilly: "Shrek Academy, Zhu Zhuqing, martial soul Nether Civet, forty-second-level Agility Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor."

Ning Rongrong smiled slightly, her gentleness carrying a hint of firmness: "Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong, martial soul Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, forty-second-level Support System Tool Soul Ancestor."

Oscar pushed up his glasses, his smile carrying a hint of slyness: "Shrek Academy, Oscar, martial soul Sausage, forty-second-level Support System Tool Soul Ancestor."

The Shrek Seven Devils' self-introductions were concise and powerful, and a wave of cheers immediately erupted from the spectator stands.

Their strength and tacit understanding had already been fully displayed in previous matches, and everyone was looking forward to their performance in this final.

On the other side, the Imperial Fighting Team was not to be outdone.

As captain, Yu Tianheng stepped forward first, his gaze cold and steady, his voice calm: "Tiandou Royal Academy, Yu Tianheng, martial soul Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, forty-ninth-level Power Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor!"

Dugu Yan followed closely behind, a hint of arrogance in her eyes: "Tiandou Royal Academy, Dugu Yan, martial soul Jade Phosphorus Snake, forty-sixth-level Control System Battle Soul Ancestor."

The brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo stood side by side, their voices resonant: "Tiandou Royal Academy, Shi Mo, martial soul Black Tortoise Turtle, forty-fifth-level Defense System Battle Soul Ancestor!"

"Tiandou Royal Academy, Shi Mo, martial soul Black Tortoise Turtle, forty-fifth-level Defense System Battle Soul Ancestor!"

Yufeng smiled slightly, looking suave and elegant: "Tiandou Royal Academy, Yufeng, martial soul Wind Bell Bird, forty-fourth-level Agility Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor."

Ye Lingling's expression was indifferent, her voice chilly: "Tiandou Royal Academy, Ye Lingling, martial soul Nine Heart Begonia, forty-third-level Support System Tool Soul Ancestor."

Aosiluo waved his hand lazily: "Tiandou Royal Academy, Aosiluo, martial soul Ghost Leopard, forty-fourth-level Agility Attack System Battle Soul Ancestor."

The Imperial Fighting Team's self-introductions were equally imposing, especially Yu Tianheng's forty-ninth-level soul power; he would soon become a Soul King.

After both sides finished their introductions, the referee raised his right hand, his voice resonant: "The match—begins!"

As the referee's gesture fell, the members of both sides moved instantly, Soul Rings flashing and soul skills erupting; the entire arena was instantly enveloped in intense combat.

High on the tower, Tianmeng Bingcan watched, dumbfounded, and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice: "Great God, the talent of these human Soul Masters is actually quite good! Especially that Yu Tianheng."

Zhexian nodded indifferently, his gaze sweeping over the Shrek Seven Devils, his brows knitting slightly.

There is medicinal herb residue in their bodies...

It seems that place was discovered by these little fellows.

However, to be able to retrieve medicinal herbs from the Killing Array, they do have some ability.
