The entire spectator stand was in a clamor. Who would have thought that Su Mu would lose the competition? He lost to an opponent who was hardly known. He, on the other hand, was the Fox King Su Mu! He was ranked third among the Eight Heavenly Kings, and the number one Control-type soul master in Monster Academy. Yet he lost, and he lost absolutely.
Su Mu returned to the waiting area. He had regained his calm demeanor.
Dai Yueyan walked in quick strides toward him. Su Mu, are you alright? Is your tail...
Su Mu shook his head. Im not seriously injured. Im fine. Im sorry everyone for my loss.
Dai Yueyan hastily spoke, Losing a round in a match is nothing, we can always win the next round. But, why didnt you use your battle armor?
Su Mu shook his head. Hes younger than me by five years. If I were to use my battle armor, heh-heh.
Long Yue walked in front of him and patted his shoulder. Dont you worry. Go home.
Su Mus expression stiffened, then he nodded and walked outside.
Long Yues voice echoed from behind. His voice was no longer playful, but dignified. If anyone were to lose in the upcoming matches for dismissing the opponent, then, dont blame me for being ruthless in disqualifying you from becoming Monster Academys Heavenly King.
Su Mus expression changed. Long Yue saw it. At long last, Long Yue had seen through him.
One could hardly be heard in the waiting area with the noisy bustle outside when Tang Wulin returned to his comrades.
When he strode into the waiting area, all the contestants who were waiting for their turn looked at him as if he was a monster.
Xie Xie rushed over and gave Tang Wulin a big hug. Captain, you were so cool! Youre awesome! Youve truly won!
Tang Wulin rolled his eyes and felt a little uncomfortable. What do you mean by truly won? Oh yes, who mentioned about the ten thousand year spirit item? Dont forget it.
Yue Zhengyu lowered his head and spoke in dejection, Since when have you become so powerful? When did the Golden Dragon Claw become two? This match shouldnt be considered a win. Your opponent didnt even release his battle armor. Even if you were considered the winner, you didnt win gloriously! You didnt truly defeat your opponent.
Accept reality! Gu Yue responded in disdain. Do you think that he really didnt release his battle armor? He spoke boldly in a dignified tone, but in fact, he didnt even have the ability to drive the battle armor.
Tang Wulin was stunned. What do you mean?
Gu Yue explained, He was too confident in his soul skills. When his Reverse Light Ring was broken by the Golden Dragon Dreadclaw, his tail could have protected him. However, his five tails were all severely injured. If my guess is correct, his battle armor is certainly related to his tails. Some of his tails were almost severed by half, and all his five tails were affected. How could he have used his battle armor? If a violent collision happened when he was using the battle armor, any of his tails may break. His power would be greatly reduced. Hence, Tang Wulin won this competition fair and square. His opponent deserved to lose for dismissing Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin suddenly saw the light as it seemed like his opponent actually had a high regard for him! However, he could not help thinking about how he was always lucky to be dismissed by his opponent. Otherwise, if Su Mu was slightly more cautious and armed with his battle armor, it would be difficult for Tang Wulin to win.
Of course, he had another card that he had yet to play because he had been on guard against his opponents battle armor. During the fight, Tang Wulin did not unleash his Bluesilver Emperor.
Yue Zhengyu was dejected. A ten thousand year spirit item was not cheap for him!
Lets go quick. Its quite chaotic since Tang Wulin defeated Monster Academys people, Yuanen Yehui reminded everyone. She was the oldest in the group and level-headed as well.
Tang Wulin felt cold in his heart. This was Star Luo Empires territory. His victory over Monster Academy had certainly resulted in a big impact on them.
The eight of them did not dally any further, but left the waiting area and quickly returned to their hotels.
As for the second round matches, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, Yuanen Yehui, Yue Zhengyu, and Ye Xinglan had all passed the individual matches. However, Gu Yue, Xu Xiaoyan, and Xu Lizhi did not participate in the individual matches. Xu Xiaoyans main ability was her control, whereas her attack was weaker than the rest.
The entire Star Luo City was in a commotion at present. Su Mu who was ranked third among Monster Academys Eight Heavenly Kings had failed. Even though he failed under the circumstance of not using his battle armor, he was still considered to have failed! Moreover, he lost to an opponent whose cultivation base was lower than himself.
This was unbelievable and turned out to be an unexpected win in this years competition.
The control system was capable of restricting the assault system. Besides, Su Mu was also reputed to be the number one control-type soul master in Monster Academy. Yet, he suffered defeat under such a condition. Tang Wulin, on the other hand, rose to fame. Soon, news about him began to spread throughout Star Luo City and even as wide as the entire Star Luo Continent.
Shrek! The name was on everyones mind. They only recalled that there existed such a top academy in the distant Douluo Continent.
This was their first confrontation that is now widely known to all, also the fact that Monster Academy had lost to Shrek Academy.
There were many differing voices following that. Some were scolding, some cursing, and there was even an occasion where a group of people attacked the Grand Star Luo Hotel. Consequently, the attack was dispersed by the governments military personnel.
However, there were a few analytical minds who performed a detailed analysis of the battle.
Hello everyone. Im Fanger and the commentator of the Continental Young High-Ranking Soul Masters Elite Competition for the third time. The recent match has led to a controversial dispute. Therefore, I hope that everyone will keep calm and focus on the competition that has turned out to be exceptionally exciting. Also, Ill be giving an analysis of the competition.
Fanger was a beauty who had an influential position in the Star Luo Continent soul masters world but not because of her powers or abilities. When her martial soul was awakened, her soul power had not been born so she did not qualify as a soul guide master.
However, she had a passion for the soul masters profession. Even though she did not manage to become a soul master, she had spent all her time and energy in studying soul masters. She was self-taught, and in the past decade, she learned everything about soul masters beginning from elementary up to advanced courses. She had a profound understanding of the soul master, battle armor, and mecha. She published many theses and received critical acclaim from the soul masters world.
As a beauty who was decidedly straight to the point, she became famous throughout the whole continent after she was involved in giving her comments about the soul masters competitions. Later, she won accolades as a commentator in Star Luo Empires soul masters world.
She had given the Continental Young High-Ranking Soul Masters Elite Competitions commentary at sixteen years of age and received recognition for her work. Now, at age twenty-two and for the third time, she was the commentator for the competition.
She was seen as a goddess in the eyes of both the ordinary folks and soul masters. Fanger spoke through a public broadcast system which immediately drew the attention of the spectators.
On the soul screens, Fangers image appeared. She was dressed in white and looked immaculate with her coiffure combed into perfection. Her face with a fair complexion appeared pinched, but her large round eyes were full of vigor. Two dimples were noticeable when she smiled which made her particularly attractive.
Even the rowdy folks who caused the disturbance were watching the screen. Their attention had been diverted.
I think everyone is eager to know how Monster Academys Su Mu lost the competition. One factor was accidental while another was inevitable. So, Ill do my best to analyze the competition for everyones benefit.
Fangers expression turned stern. She had always felt to be a commentator for a soul masters competition was a sacred task. It was also a noble profession for her.
Ive watched the competitions recording in detail three times. Even though I still havent managed to unravel all the secrets yet, Im quite confident about the information Ive gained which Im going to share with all of you now. Id like to emphasize that this is just a competition, so I hope that no one will be nationalistic on this matter. At the same time, I hope that everyone can view this objectively. Id also like to say that all the commentaries that Ive made represent only my opinions and not any other authoritys.
The frame changed into the competitions scene after she had spoken. It was a recording of Tang Wulin and Su Mus fight.
The recording was paused at the moment when the two contenders were about to engage in their battle.
