The first round of the preliminaries ended quietly. All the members of Shrek Academy won their battles without much problems and the opponent Tang Wulin had to face was by far the strongest. The rest of them seemed around the same strength as Sheng Feilong's first opponent.

After being fired up by Monster Academy's display in the first round of the team competitions, Tang Wulin and the others went out with solemn expressions. Still, their opponent were nowhere near powerful enough to really contend with them.

In the end, Yuanen Yehui went to fight them alone while the rest of the Shrek team just stood at the sidelines, waiting for her to finish the match. Utilizing her Titan Giant Ape Spirit Essence, she furiously suppressed the opponent with her strength, taking out one after the other without much problem.

Like that, the day came to an end and half of the contestants of the tournament were already out. Sheng Feilong spent some more time with his friends and then visited She Meixiao in the evening. The two of them talked a bit about the day, especially the different matches as She Meixiao watched nearly all of them and kept an eye open for strong competitors.

There were quite a number of powerful rank 50 Soul Kings, but She Meixiao found only two who seemed to possess Battle Armours, three if Tang Wulin's opponent went into the count, but even those were comparatively weaker than Sheng Feilong.

The next day of the competition came fast and all of the competitors once again assembled in the arena's waiting area. Sheng Feilog took a look at the match-ups and surprisingly found eight new names that he hadn't seen before; Those eight were precisely Long Yue and the other students form Monster Academy.

They were easy to spot as every single one of them had a bright, golden symbol next to their name, showing that they did indeed belong to Monster Academy. Everyone had their academies name written next to them, including Tang Wulin and the others, but the Monster Academy students were the only ones that had an emblem in addition to the academy's name.

Sheng Feilong's eyebrows rose when he saw the matchup for one of the Monster Academy's students and glanced at Tang Wulin. "Seems like your luck really is incredible, Wulin. You get a rank 50 Soul King with a powerful Battle Armour in the first round and a member of Monster Academy in the second. Lucky for you, you won't face any of them after that for a long time."

Tang Wulin frowned. Sheng Feilong was right and his opponent would be the Fox King, Su Mu. From what Tang Wulin saw yesterday, Su Mu seems to be the main control type Soul Master of Monster Academy's team and he was incredibly powerful. Like all of them, he was naturally a rank 50 Soul King with a full set of Battle Armour.

While they were discussing this, a mocking laughter suddenly came from behind them. Sheng Feilong and the others turned around and saw the students of Monster Academy making their way over to the matching board. Today, they were actually lead by Dai Yun'er, who was also the one who was mockingly laughing at Tang Wulin.


She turned around and looked at a handsome youth from the Monster Academy's group and started giggling even more. "Brother Mu, you have to show some mercy in your match later! The captain of Shrek Academy's team losing in the preliminaries is already enough; Don't make him lose too much face!"

Tang Wulin and the other's faces sunk when they heard this. Su Mu showed an arrogant smile and nodded towards Tang Wulin. "Don't worry brother, as our lovely princess has asked me of this favour, I'll hold back a bit. Don't worry about losing face; All's fair in war and love." Dai Yun'er giggled again and looked at Tang Wulin. "Right, right! Isn't Brother Mu nice? All's fair in war and love, so you can give it your all without having to worry about losing to badly!"

Tang Wulin's face turned cold as he stared at the princess. He seemed ready to burst out, but remembering where he was, he held it in. Sheng Feilong on the other hand wasn't as civilized and just stared at Dai Yueyan with an annoyed expression. "Your Highness Fourth Prince, you wouldn't happen to have a way to shut this obnoxious chatterbox off, would you?"

Dai Yueyan's and Long Yue's faces sunk, while Dai Yun'er turned red from anger. She pointed at Sheng Feilong and gnashing her teeth. "You-!" Sheng Feilong waved his hand in her direction, cutting her off before she could even start. "Yes, yes, whatever. If that's all you have to say, you can leave again. We don't have the time to humour you."

He turned around to leave, leaving the Monster Academy students and surrounding competitors behind dumbfounded. Sheng Feilong turned towards Tang Wulin and the others with an indifferent expression. "Let's go? There's a few free seats back there."

Tang Wulin and Gu Yue were the first to react. They nodded shortly before following behind Sheng Feilong. Yuanen Yehui and the others followed after. They went to another corner of the waiting area where a few free seats were still available, just like Sheng Feilong said, when Xu Lizhi flashed Sheng Feilong a huge thumbs up while laughing. "Brother Feilong, that was awesome!"

Yue Zhengyu also started laughing as he looked at Sheng Feilong. "It really was. You left them no face whatsoever." The others started smiling as well, feeling content with what just happened. Sheng Feilong smiled in response and shrugged. "If that princess wants to play games with me, she need way thicker skin than that. Moreover, I really don't have any intention of becoming friendly with her if she behaves like that."

Sheng Feilong's smile than diminished and he frowned lightly. Turning to face Tang Wulin, he spoke up in a serious voice. "You really have to watch that Su Mu, though. He's strong." Tang Wulin frowned as well and the atmosphere turned more serious. "I know. His control skills are superb. And his Spirit Essence is really peculiar. I haven't seen one like that before."

"Me neither, but he seems to be a pure control type. If I had to guess, I'd say his physique is rather weak. If you can get near him and land a few good hits, that should do the trick." Sheng Feilong nodded. The group remained silent for a moment before Tang Wulin smiled lightly, trying to console them. "Don't worry, I already have a plan. It's be a hard fight, but I'm confident I'll win. Remember, they still don't know that I'm a control type Soul Master as well."

He left it at that and didn't tell them about the specifics of his plan. Seeing Tang Wulin this confident made the others relax and they started preparing for their own fights.

Some time passed and Ye Xinglan, Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui were the first from their group to have to fight. Their opponents were a bit stronger than yesterday's, but still not on the level were they would pose a threat; All three of them won without any problems.

Tang Wulin was next. Sheng Feilong and the others watched the battle from the sidelines, while the eyes of nearly the whole arena were fixed on them; The first fight between Monster Academy's and Shrek Academy's representatives, of course no one would want to miss this!

Su Mu was strong, maybe even stronger than expected, and his Soul Skills were incredibly powerful as well. He would place a field on the ground and as soon as you stepped into this field, you would be under his control. Depending on which Soul Ring he used, this field would have a different effect; One of them increasing gravity, locking his opponent down, and another even sapping away their Soul Power.

Tang Wulin managed to break through the control and get near Su Mu after a while and everyone thought the match had already concluded as Su Mu fell to the ground after a round of blows. But surprisingly he stood up again and entered a kind of berserk state. His unique Spirit Essence, the Nine-Tailed Fox, actually gave him a hint of the real Nine-Tailed Fox's bloodline, allowing him to enter such a state.

Tang Wulin managed to win in the end by relying on his powerful Dragon type bloodline, completely suppressing Su Mu and beating him into unconsciousness. Still, this rendered him rather drained as well and when he returned to the waiting area, he sat down to meditate and restore his Soul Power.

The match set out huge waves through the whole arena and barely anyone had settled down when the next matches began. One of the so called Eight Heavenly Kings of Monster Academy losing was unprecedented. Usually, they would dominate the whole individual competition and take the first 8 spots, but now one of them actually lost in the preliminaries!

Yue Zhengyu and the others finished their matches in a rather straightforward manner and easily won as their opponent were still on the lower end scale of power in the tournament.

Sheng Feilong utilized the same tactics as before; Drawing his opponent into his illusions, waiting for them to position themselves nicely in front of him, then brutally kicking their neck to knock them out. His opponent was left with no injuries, safe for possibly a newly developed phobia of cauliflowers.
