Qiangu Dongfeng hastily weighed the matter mentally. He concluded that he was trapped by Tang Wulin’s scheme and scoffed in rage. “Don’t you think that you can win just by using such a cunning trick.”
Tang Wulin scoffed coldly. “So, do you still want to fight?”
Knowing that he was tricked, Qiangu Dongfeng looked at him with a burning gaze. Tang Wulin used a nobody that came from nowhere to “fight” against him, the Limit Douluo. Therefore, he would not be able to participate in the upcoming two-on-two battle anymore.
Of course, if the two-on-two battle only awarded one point, it would not be much of an issue for him, but victory in the two-on-two match was actually worth two points. That was quite different. Tang Wulin had obviously tricked him, and he had to suffer in silence, as there was nothing he could do to expose Tang Wulin’s scheme.
After studying this matter, Shrek Academy appeared to be losing by one point during the earlier one-on-one battles. That being the case, both of the two great Limit Douluos, including himself and Leng Yaozhu, had already participated in the competition. Leng Yaozhu was almost as powerful as Yali in the sense that they had just recently elevated to Limit Douluo-tank. Nevertheless, Leng Yaozhu was a four-word battle armor master and an assault-type Limit Douluo!
If either he or Leng Yaozhu could fight against Yali in a one-on-one battle, it would almost certainly be a win for the Spirit Pagoda. Even so, though Shrek’s side had lost two battles, they could still win the war.
Although Qiangu Zhangting and Leng Yaozhu had won two rounds, they had not defeated Shrek’s greatest fighters. On the other hand, what kind of people had been sent out from Shrek Academy from the beginning until now?
Yali and the fully hidden Long Yeyue had yet to participate in the contest. They were obviously low on manpower, so they came up with a scheme to weaken their opponent.
However, if Shrek thought that they could win just by doing so, then they were gravely mistaken. The Spirit Pagoda and their thousand of years of inner secrets would ensure that they would not be finished off so easily!
Qiangu Dongfeng calmed down after figuring all of this out. At the very least, this meant that Shrek Academy genuinely lacked inner secrets at the very least. The idea of Yun Ming’s resurrection was simply a joke. He had already queried the Holy Spirit Cult’s side in detail. The Holy Spirit Cult explained that without the power of a God, it was impossible for resurrection to be performed. Yun Ming had only left behind a wisp of a soul that was attached to a tool in a vegetative state.
“Go ahead. I’d like to see what other tricks you have up your sleeves anyway.”
As he spoke, Qiangu Dongfeng turned around and looked at his own subordinates, casting them a meaningful glance.
Tang Wulin’s expression had returned to his usual calm. His face did not reveal what he was thinking at all.
The parents and students watching the competition from afar felt baffled. Why did Shrek Academy try to stir up trouble with a trick? However, despite the situation, they felt like both Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda were equally matched. Though they had an extra point, the Spirit Pagoda had still not managed to suppress Shrek.
The parents were feeling that their trip to the academy was well worth it. A competition between two great forces would cost a lot if it was ticketed, but they had the opportunity to watch it for free.
Even though the soul television channels were also broadcasting the event live, watching it on the television would not be as good as watching it in-person.
The battles in the sky could only be filmed from the ground due to the lack of preparation beforehand. The clarity of the footage was a problem as well.
Tang Wulin and Qiangu Dongfeng stood facing one another once again. Both of them began the countdown simultaneously.
“Three, two, one, begin!”
Two silhouettes from both sides leaped up and flew into the sky in an instant.
In the soul masters’ world, one-on-one and two-on-two battles had existed since ancient times. They had been held since the era of the Tang Sect’s founder, Tang San. At the time, two-on-two battles were very often carried out. They were frequently fought between soul masters that possessed martial soul fusion skills. It was a chance for them to use their lethal fighting techniques by working together with their partners as a team.

The pair flying into the sky from the Spirit Pagoda were two tall middle-aged men with large builds. They appeared to be in their thirties. Both of them were muscular with short hair like steel needles.
Their most prominent characteristic was that they both looked exactly the same. They were identical twins!
The Spirit Pagoda did not intend to hide anything. What was the significance of a set of twins in this battle? This meant that there was a good chance that they possessed martial soul fusion skills.
Generally, twin soul masters were destined to work with one another if they could cultivate themselves to a certain level. Moreover, it was highly possible that they could be born with martial soul fusion skills.
Tang Wulin had encountered opponents like these before when he was young. Such foes were rather troublesome to deal with.
The Spirit Pagoda had sent out such a pair of twins. As soon as they soared skyward, both of them unleashed nine soul rings in unison. Each of them had three purple and six black soul rings. Even though they were slightly weaker compared to the soul masters from the earlier battles, the team of a pair of twins obviously possessed a martial soul fusion skill. Otherwise, they would not be qualified to represent the Spirit Pagoda’s team.
Tang Wulin could not help shaking his head in secret upon witnessing this. The Spirit Pagoda was still the Spirit Pagoda after all! Leave alone everything else, no other ordinary force could ever compare to the Spirit Pagoda’s inner secrets. Tang Wulin had not encountered many of the soul masters they had sent out on this day, but they were all Title Douluo-ranked.
A Title Douluo was already considered a person that could guard an entire clan in an ordinary small sect. It seemed that only the Spirit Pagoda was aware of how many Title Douluos they had on their side. They relied on the allure of their spirit souls to enroll more powerhouses for their own purposes.
In turn, the two people that rose into the sky from Shrek Academy’s side were also very burly. In fact, they were larger and more muscular than their opponents on the other side.
However, they were not twins.
The person standing on the left side had a tall, massive figure with his bald head shining in the sun. His body was brimming with such strength that even his clothes could not conceal his bulging muscles.
The person standing by his side was only slightly shorter. He was also an extremely muscular man. He had a crude appearance while his entire person exuded a powerful boldness.
There was no doubt that these two were the Body Douluo A Ruheng and the Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi.
They had followed Tang Wulin and chose to remain at Shrek. Sima Jinchi would never leave Tang Wulin, while A Ruheng found that he had nowhere else to go. Tang Wulin requested that both of them become the academy’s teachers so they could replenish the teaching strength of Shrek.
Being teachers was new for them. They had no idea how far they could go, but they were very interested in the offer. They agreed to stay at once.
Tang Wulin had already discussed with them prior to this that they would be participating in the first round of the two-on-two matches.
The Spirit Pagoda’s database had very little information on these two. At least, they had no details that would be of use in this battle.
A Ruheng had been cultivating in the Body Sect ever since he was a child. He had only joined society after he had successfully cultivated his martial soul. He encountered Tang Wulin after participating in a competition for the first time. He later went looking for Tang Wulin and chose to remain by his side ever since.
On the other hand, the Gale Saber Demon Sima Jinchi was a high-ranking officer in the Southern Army Corps in the past. His information was naturally protected by the military’s security. As a result, there was very little available on him. He stayed at Tang Wulin’s side like a weapon. He had never done anything shocking, so not much attention had been placed on him. Even when he appeared in the previous Joust For A Spouse Festival, he did it in make up.
Therefore, Qiangu Dongfeng had only frowned a little upon seeing these two people representing Shrek in the battle with their original appearances. He could feel that these two people possessed Title Douluo-ranked cultivation bases as well, so their abilities should be rather impressive. Nevertheless, Qiangu Dongfeng was feeling very confident in the team he had chosen for this match.
Not every pair could simply team-up and cooperate well in battle!
Sima Jinchi and A Ruheng looked into each other’s eyes. Then, they turned their heads to the side with disdainful expressions on their face.
“Let me tell you this. Don’t slow me down, okay?!” said Sima Jinchi scornfully.
A Ruheng scoffed coldly. “Stay down. You should just stay down now. I’m good at doing this alone. Why do I need you here getting in the way?!”
