Chapter 159 Huo Yuhao's New Idea Wang Yan looked around at everyone seriously. "If we are in a group with eight teams, it means we will have to play a total of seven games in the group stage." "According to the rules of the game, you get two points for each win, no points for a loss, and one point for a draw." "Four groups will compete every day, one round every two days. After seven rounds, plus the extra rounds for the nine-person group, the round-robin tournament is expected to last fifteen or sixteen days." "If everything goes well, Ma Xiaotao should be able to return in the fourth or fifth round, and Ling Luochen will be about the same. In other words, starting from the sixth round, our overall strength will be basically restored to full strength." "I won't know our group and our opponents until tomorrow morning. Given our reputation, we will still be the first to play in the round-robin tournament." Having said this, Wang Yan paused slightly. "Because the competition is drawn before the start, the specific tactics cannot be arranged now. We can only make a plan first." "The most advantageous event for us is the single elimination tournament. With Yuhao's personal combat power, even if his spiritual attribute soul skills are weakened by 50%, no one in this tournament can pose a threat to him."
“But what I need to know is,” Wang Yan looked at Huo Yuhao with a serious expression, “Yuhao, are you sure you can win the individual elimination match without revealing too many of your cards?” Just now, after Huo Yuhao introduced his soul skills and stated that he was now a Soul Emperor, Wang Yan's original thoughts changed. As an academic teacher, Wang Yan was very clear about how incredible the talent of Huo Yuhao was, as he had cultivated to the level of Soul Emperor at the age of twelve. Just as Huo Yuhao had said before, for a peerless genius like him, time for growth is more important than anything else. This is not only true for him, but also for the college! Because this level of talent means that Huo Yuhao has a great chance of growing into an Ultimate Douluo! Compared to the Ultimate Douluo, what does winning a tournament mean? That's the real top fighting force on the continent! The existence of an Extreme Douluo is enough to rule the academy for hundreds of years. During these hundreds of years, Shrek will be as stable as a rock! If Huo Yuhao’s soul skills were not so abundant and his personal strength was indeed overwhelming all the contestants in this competition, Wang Yan would not even want to let Huo Yuhao go on stage. They would rather lose the game than let him go unpunished, giving him time to grow and minimizing the possibility of outside threats to Huo Yuhao. Seeing the concern in Wang Yan's eyes, Huo Yuhao seemed to understand what Wang Yan was thinking. He smiled slightly: "Teacher Wang, don't worry, if it is really an individual elimination competition, it will be too easy for me." "Even if the other party has a spiritual defense soul guide, there is not much room for resistance in front of me." Seeing Huo Yuhao's confident look, Wang Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. From the first game, Wang Yan discovered that although Huo Yuhao was extremely strong, he was not the type to rely on his own strength to fight recklessly. Even though he had so many powerful skills, he chose to use his spirit to replicate his soul skills to set up a foreshadowing, as a smokescreen for others to discover how "powerful" he was in the future. Such scheming is enough to show that he is not a reckless person. “Okay, in that case, if we are drawn to the individual competition, before Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen recover, Huo Yuhao will be the first to go on stage, followed by Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Qiu’er and the rest of you, in order of your soul power levels.” "If it's a 2-2-3 strategy, Yuhao, you and Qiu'er will be in one team. With you here, your team's victory will be a piece of cake." "Beibei, Xu Sanshi, you two will be in one team. Apart from Yuhao, you have the strongest overall strength in the reserve team, and you also have the best coordination. As long as you two teams can guarantee victory, then there's no need to have the three-on-three match." "As for the team battle, there is nothing much to say. Huo Yuhao has a shared spiritual detection system, so everything is under his command." "Also," Wang Yan looked at Jiang Nannan, He Caitou, Wang Dong and the others, "you should also be prepared. If the battle situation changes, you may also be asked to replace players."
"Yes, Teacher Wang." Everyone nodded. "Wait a moment." At this moment, Huo Yuhao suddenly spoke. "Huh?" Wang Yan looked at him puzzledly. A strange smile suddenly appeared on Huo Yuhao's face. "Teacher Wang, right now, the outside world's discussion about us shouldn't just be limited to me, right?" Everyone was stunned and looked at Huo Yuhao, wondering why he asked that. Huo Yuhao said in an inexplicable way: "If I am not mistaken, because of my performance in the last game, our obviously younger reserve team should have caused all kinds of speculation from the outside world?" Wang Yan nodded subconsciously: "Yes, because you killed all the members of the other team in the last game, and now other participating teams are guessing that the reason why we Shrek only sent two players of the right age this time is because there is more than one young player with abnormal talent like you in the reserve team." Huo Yuhao chuckled: "It's not surprising that they think this way. After all, this is the Continental High-level Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition. If Shrek didn't have absolute confidence, how could it send so many young players to participate?" Upon hearing this, Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen's faces froze at the same time, with mixed feelings in their hearts. As parties involved, they naturally know the real reasons for this situation. It wasn't that Shrek was absolutely sure, but that the regular players messed things up. Huo Yuhao suddenly showed a wicked smile on his face: "Since everyone has such a guess, then I will help them to confirm it." "I want to show everyone what it means to be a total monster!" Everyone looked at each other, wondering what Huo Yuhao was up to next. The first knockout round of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is finally over, and next is the first game of the round-robin tournament. After the first round of competition, the atmosphere of the entire Xingluo City has been fully aroused, and the enthusiasm of the audience is unprecedentedly high. There are people queuing up in advance late at night every day. Although Xingluo Plaza is large in area, its capacity is limited and cannot fully meet the needs of the people. If you go too late, you may not even be able to buy a ticket. In the first opening match of the round-robin tournament, Shrek, as the number one academy on the continent, has been announced by the Star Luo Empire that it will be the first to appear in the group stage. The hot topic about Huo Yuhao had already become everyone's topic of conversation in the past few days. Everyone was arguing with each other, how old is this boy and what level of soul master is he? In addition, many people hold an inexplicable expectation: Are there any other young talents as powerful as Huo Yuhao among Shrek’s other reserve players? Please give me a monthly ticket~~recommendation ticket~~ (End of this chapter)
