Chapter 175: Yu Xiaogang Becomes Famous After One Battle?

The tournament rules only state that one cannot kill their opponent; the actions of the Shrek Seven Devils could be considered skirting the edge of the rules.

But to maliciously injure opponents so severely—if not stopped, I fear the subsequent matches will be incredibly bloody!

Prince Xue Xing, as the Dean of Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan, stood out at this moment. "Sharp-tongued!"

"The tournament clearly stipulates that friendship comes first, and competition second. For the Shrek Academy Team to act in such a manner is truly to disregard the tournament rules!"

Xue Xing knew that the actions of the Shrek Seven Devils were a slap in his face.

But anger is one thing; he still had no reason to take down the Shrek Seven Devils.

After all, the boundary of the rule "friendship first, competition second" is very vague.

Furthermore, the members of the Imperial Fighting Team's third squad were indeed not dead; to take down the Shrek Seven Devils in full view of everyone would inevitably lead the outside world to attack the Heaven Dou Imperial Family for it.

The audience whispered to one another, discussing this heatedly.

Some agreed with taking down the Shrek Team on the spot, while others opposed it.

When it comes down to it, there were no casualties at present, and Shrek Academy had not essentially broken any rules.

But at this moment, no one dared to underestimate the Shrek Seven Devils anymore.

To be able to eliminate a team of all Soul Elders in less than a minute, the Shrek Seven Devils truly had the strength.

Seeing that the timing was ripe, Yu Xiaogang walked from the lounge to the front of the arena.

"Your Highness the Prince, I am afraid that statement is inappropriate."

"Oh? Isn't this Yu Xiaogang, the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family head?" Xue Xing sneered.

This time, Yu Xiaogang was surprisingly calm.

"My identity is not something Your Highness the Prince needs to worry about."

"Since our Shrek Team did not kill the members of the Imperial Fighting Team, on what grounds do you conclude we are guilty?"

"Heh, or is it that Your Highness the Prince wishes to abuse your power for personal gain and is deliberately targeting our Shrek Academy?"

Regarding the face of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, Prince Xue Xing dared not answer casually.

Moreover, Yu Xiaogang's question was very tricky, even turning the Shrek Seven Devils from perpetrators into victims.

……

Seven Treasure Team lounge.

Qiangu Changkong sneered, "As expected of the world-renowned Master; I would call this sleight of hand the strongest."

Sun Buyu furrowed his brows; if it were him facing such a situation, he would also find it hard to explain.

Such matters, logically speaking, should be handled by the referee.

But these referees were all extremely cunning and unwilling to get involved at all.

After a pause, he looked at Wu Qi, "Little Wu, how would you resolve this situation?"

Wu Qi shrugged: "Unsolvable. In such matters, members of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family should not have spoken. They are just the organizers, not the referees."

"Prince Xue Xing is too impulsive; not only did he lose his initiative, but he will even bring the fire onto the Heaven Dou Imperial Family."

"For the tournament organizers to coerce the referee into making a ruling will certainly invite criticism."

A rumor takes one mouth, but refuting it wears out your legs!

"In such a matter, if you changed to someone with a slightly more glib tongue, they could easily 'win,' let alone Master Yu Xiaogang."

As long as a referee dared to speak, this deadlock would be broken. But what would await them would inevitably be the verbal abuse of the masses.

But if they cleared the siege for the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, that referee's future would certainly be limitless and they would surely be heavily relied upon in the future.

But then again, when the organizers select referees, would they choose such smooth-talking people?

For the sake of fairness and justice in the competition, the referees must be the type of people who are impartial and incorruptible.

It is just that in the current situation, looking at the rules, everything the Shrek Seven Devils did was permitted; but if they were ruled as not having violated the rules, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family would certainly not be able to justify it.

"He really pulled it off; after today, the name of Yu Xiaogang will likely spread throughout all of Tiandou City," Wu Qi said gloomily.

"It's not exactly a good reputation," everyone felt ashamed of this.

On the high seat.

The three Education Committees who came to watch the opening ceremony felt incredibly fortunate at this moment.

These people from Shrek Academy acted in a perverse and violent manner; fortunately, they were not allowed to join Tiandou Huangjia Xueyuan, otherwise, there is no telling what kind of chaos they might have caused.

……

The Spirit Master Tournament was the greatest political achievement made by Bibi Dong after she ascended to the position of Pope.

Of course, this was not a spur-of-the-moment idea by Bibi Dong, but one that had been planned in detail long ago.

Coincidentally, she was the one who discussed this matter with Yu Xiaogang back then.

Many of the tournament rules were also set only after she discussed them with Yu Xiaogang.

As the "founder" of the tournament, Yu Xiaogang knew the tournament rules like the back of his hand.

He spoke incessantly, leaving Prince Xue Xing speechless.

Even many in the audience stood on the side of Shrek Academy because of this, demanding that the Heaven Dou Imperial Family make a fair ruling.

Xue Ye suppressed the anger in his heart, but he absolutely could not speak at this moment!

He silently gestured to Ning Fengzhi, who understood and immediately spoke, "Everyone, Ning is not the tournament organizer, just a spectator. How about I be the judge?"

Yu Xiaogang, however, did not give him face. "Heh, Sect Master Ning, do not delay the time. I think it is better to take the members of the Imperial Fighting Team's third squad down for treatment, lest they die from their injuries and then blame it on our Shrek Academy."

Ning Fengzhi was not annoyed and responded with a faint smile: "Master Yu's words are reasonable."

After speaking, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul appeared in his hand, and seven-colored light fell into the bodies of the Imperial Fighting Team's third squad, healing some of their injuries.

Immediately after, under the instruction of Ning Fengzhi, the tournament staff carried stretchers onto the arena and dragged the seven injured people down for treatment.

Tang San cupped his fists toward Ning Fengzhi, "Since Sect Master Ning is willing to decide for us, this junior thanks you in advance."

Gu Rong sneered.

"Make the call, my foot; it's just that Xue Xing is too stupid, and only Ning Fengzhi can clean up the mess."

Xue Ye only wants to resolve the situation now, and besides, as long as Shrek Academy is still participating in the tournament, there will be plenty of opportunities to teach them a lesson in the future.

Ning Fengzhi spoke a few official platitudes.

According to the tournament rules, Shrek Academy did not violate anything in this match, and the victory should rightfully belong to them.

However, out of humanitarianism, Ning Fengzhi asked Shrek Academy to provide compensation to serve as medical expenses for the members of the Imperial Fighting Team Three.

As for whether Yu Xiaogang would actually pay afterward, that was not something he needed to worry about.

……

Today, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family lost all face.

After Ning Fengzhi finished cleaning up the mess, Xue Ye immediately announced the conclusion of the opening match and, escorted by guards, left the venue in a hurry.

With the first battle won, the Shrek Seven Devils were all beaming with pride.

"It's fortunate that Teacher stepped in; otherwise, I wouldn't have known what to do," Tang San praised.

Today, he truly and thoroughly grasped the great wisdom of his teacher.

Yu Xiaogang unconsciously clasped his hands behind his back, "Heh heh, it was nothing more than a minor scuffle; everything was under my control."

Today's match could be said to have sounded an alarm for the other teams.

Shrek Academy is like a vicious wolf, reaping the ordinary academy teams.

If they do not wish to follow in the footsteps of Imperial Fighting Team Three, these students must go all out when facing the Shrek Team.

If they are not a match, they must immediately concede; there can be no hesitation.

In short, the Shrek Academy Team is too arrogant, having offended almost all the participating teams on the first day of the competition.

And Prince Xue Xing is no pushover; Shrek Academy publicly made him lose face, and he has certainly noted this grudge.
