The team gathered in the group battle lounge after finishing their day's one-on-one and two-on-two soul battles.
Master entered the lounge holding the newly released team match data. His usually indifferent face, already stern, became even more solemn with the grim details of the soul battle teams.
Dai Mubai and the others, who had been playing and laughing boisterously, immediately quieted down and suppressed their smiles as they watched him place the stack of documents in the center of the table surrounded by sofas.
"Your opponents tonight will be a formidable team, no less troublesome than the Rampage Team."
Dai Mubai, facing the documents directly, glanced at Master. With the latter's tacit approval, he picked up the data and read out the information about their opponents: "Camelot Team, captain Mu Feng, spirit Ghost Leopard. Level 37 control system soul master, soul rings, two yellow, one purple? Huh, the captain is actually a control system, and with a top-tier soul ring configuration."
"Wen Qing, spirit Bamboo Leaf Green Snake, level 34 agile attack system soul master, soul rings, three yellow. Ye Ge'er, spirit Piercing Soul Armor, level 31 defense system soul master, soul rings, three yellow."
Oscar, leaning closer to Dai Mubai, continued reading, his relaxed expression turning serious.
"Su Nan, spirit Fire Owl, level 33 assault system soul master, soul rings, three yellow."
"Lei Yuan, spirit Thunderbird, level 31 assault system soul master, soul rings, two yellow, one purple..."
Oscar's voice trailed off. Leveraging his height advantage to peer at the documents, Flanders took over from Oscar and continued reading: "Xue Yushuang, spirit Firefly Lantern, level 30 support system artifact soul master, soul rings, two yellow, one purple."
"Ailos, spirit Holy Moon Bow, level 31 assault system soul master, soul rings, two yellow, one purple. This, this configuration..."
After reading the entire team's profile, Flanders gasped, "There are four people with top-tier soul ring configurations! Where did this team come from?!"
It's over! Tonight's opponents seem very strong! But he had bet five times the odds, a total of 1000 gold soul coins!
"No matter what their origin, they are a team where every member is a Soul Elder. They have won six consecutive matches and have never tasted defeat since participating in soul battles," Master stated calmly. Sū Dan Novel Network.
Tang San, whose role in Shrek was also control system, took the documents from Dai Mubai and stared at the line about Captain Mu Feng, frowning slightly, "Control system... The Ghost Leopard, I recall reading that Ghost Leopards only appear in forests shrouded in thick fog, and they move silently, as if blending with the mist. Their whereabouts are impossible to detect, making it difficult to launch an attack. Their speed in the fog is their main advantage. Yet he's not an agile attack system, but a control system..."
"Indeed, this suggests his soul skills might be related to fog," Master nodded, pleased with his disciple's deduction.
"The other members are not to be underestimated either. After all, they have all broken through the Great Soul Master rank to become Soul Elders. That means they have one more soul skill than Fatty, Rongrong, and Zhu Qing among us. We must be wary," Dai Mubai also frowned, beginning to worry about tonight's soul battle.
As for Tang Sui, her mind had gone blank as soon as she heard the unfamiliar team's name.
Oh, so it wasn't the Imperial Dou Team, but she could still encounter a strong enemy. Did 'He' just not want to see her grow? And just on the day she was at the market, their Shrek Team's second battle was scheduled with such a difficult opponent?
Ma Hongjun stared at the line about Su Nan in the team roster that Tang San was holding and said with a grimace, "Fire Owl... Does this mean the opponent can also use flame-type soul skills, and it's a flying beast?"
Master glanced at Ma Hongjun and added, "More than that. The member named Lei Yuan, spirit Thunderbird, is also a flying beast. However, she doesn't breathe fire but unleashes lightning. With lightning and fire combined, if they were to use a spirit fusion skill, their power could be enhanced tenfold or more."
As the only flying beast in Shrek, Ma Hongjun immediately gasped, "Won't I become a charred bird! Heavens, Master, which seven are going out tonight? Will I be one of them!?"
Master remained silent, leaving the decision-making power to Dai Mubai and the others.
Receiving Master's gaze, Dai Mubai looked at Tang San.
Although he was the captain, Tang San was also their vice-captain and the undisputed soul of the team.
Meeting Dai Mubai's meaningful glance, Tang San turned to the frightened Ma Hongjun and sighed, "With a fixed number of participants, there can only be two top-tier support positions. For amplification, I'd rather keep Rongrong on the battlefield and have Xiao'ao step down first."
"Because among the opponents this time, there are two formidable flying raptors. It's not impossible that they might have aerial soul skills specifically for counter-attacking flying opponents, like Fatty's, or even area-of-effect skills. Even with Xiao'ao's flying mushroom sausage for evasion, it wouldn't be ideal. Xiao'ao, what do you think?"
Tang San asked Oscar.
Oscar shook his head vigorously, "Xiao San, just arrange it as you see fit. I have absolutely no objections. I fully support your decision!"
Tang San couldn't help but chuckle slightly. He then looked at the distracted Tang Sui and instinctively softened his voice, "Sui Sui, are you okay?"
"Huh? Ah... I'm fine with anything too."
---Author's Notes---
When looking up information, I was a bit unsure whether to use "battle xx" or "battle soul master" as a general term when introducing people, as both were present. So, I've taken the liberty to be more casual. If it's incorrect, consider it Mo Li's personal interpretation!
