On the arena, the participating teams revealed their soul rings. Among the seven members of Xiangjia Academy, each had the optimal soul ring configuration, making them a formidable opponent. The team captain, Huyan Li, was the strongest and the grandson of Huyan Zhen, a Level 43 Defense System Spirit Master. Huyan Li's impressive strength and defense made him a key player in the match, his presence commanding respect and fear.

In the VIP seats, Huyan Zhen was proudly boasting about his grandson, completely unaware of the shifting dynamics of the match. His words were filled with confidence as he described Huyan Li's strength and skills, but the reality unfolding on the arena was starting to challenge his assumptions.

Shrek Academy had made adjustments for this match, sending out Tang San, Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, Xiao Wu, Jing Ling, and Huang Yuan. This lineup included four Spirit Masters and three Spirit Elders, creating a well-rounded team that was ready for any challenge.

Upon seeing the actual strength of Shrek Academy, Salas realized his mistake. He had hoped Xiangjia Academy would be able to dismantle Shrek Academy's team, but it turned out Shrek Academy had concealed their strength in the first match. The unexpected show of power from Shrek Academy left him re-evaluating their strategy and the potential outcome of the match.

The arena was set up with five platforms, and the matches were underway. The seven members of Xiangjia Academy lined up in a row, marching heavily towards Shrek Academy's team with an imposing presence. Their synchronized movements and determined expressions spoke of their confidence and preparation.

Tang San activated his Blue Silver Grass, attempting to bind one of Xiangjia Academy's members by the leg. However, the person exerted a little force, and the Blue Silver Grass was instantly torn apart. Their terrifying strength and defense rendered the Blue Silver Grass ineffective, a testament to their formidable abilities.

Tang San had a countermeasure, though. He had developed a special formation known as the Meteor Hammer. By binding Blue Silver Grass around his teammates' waists, he was able to control them effectively. This strategy allowed Shrek Academy to maintain a tactical advantage despite the strength of their opponents.

After consuming one of Oscar's flying mushroom sausages, Tang San, along with Oscar and several teammates, ascended into the sky. The audience erupted in astonishment at the sight. The sudden elevation of the Shrek team caught everyone off guard, adding a new dimension to the match.

Huo Wushuang and his team were equally surprised.

"Tian Ge, does Tang San also have the ability to fly?" Huo Wushuang asked, his curiosity piqued.

Feng Xiaotian smiled slightly, a hint of amusement in his eyes.

"That flying ability isn't his own; it comes from the food support-type Spirit Master behind him. That person can produce flying mushroom sausages. Although the flying time is limited, it can be sustained with continuous supplementation."

"Ah, I see."

"Pay close attention to the match. Both support members on their team are quite remarkable," Feng Xiaotian continued, his gaze focused on the arena.

"Understood."

In the arena, Xiangjia Academy's members were bewildered to see their opponents flying into the air. Speed was their weakness, and agility-type Spirit Masters were their nemeses. Most Spirit Masters with flying abilities shared the traits of agility-type Spirit Masters, making them particularly challenging for Xiangjia Academy.

Under Tang San's control, five Meteor Hammers simultaneously launched their attacks, creating a chaotic flurry of strikes that aimed to overwhelm their opponents. The coordinated assault put immense pressure on Xiangjia Academy.

After a round of fierce combat, the second soul rings of the seven members of Xiangjia Academy illuminated simultaneously, causing a dramatic increase in their power. Their enhanced abilities shifted the balance of the battle, pushing back against Shrek Academy's onslaught.

After calculating the time, Tang San immediately initiated the second round of attacks. His strategy was straightforward. Huyan Li was the strongest member of the opposing team. By focusing on defeating him, Shrek Academy could secure victory in this match. The elimination of Huyan Li was critical to their success.

The five members of Shrek Academy simultaneously targeted Huyan Li's head, their combined efforts aimed at breaking through his defenses. The assault was intense, a concerted effort to neutralize the strongest threat on the field.

In the VIP seats, Huyan Zhen suddenly stood up. Seeing his most favored grandson being besieged by five Spirit Masters, he couldn't stay silent. He used his ability to direct Huyan Li by transmitting sound in a line, guiding him through the tumultuous battle.

Huyan Li roared and activated his fourth soul ring. The Blue Silver Grass that bound him instantly shattered, and a protective layer resembling ice crystals appeared around him. The defensive move provided a critical boost to his resilience, but it also highlighted the mounting pressure he was under.

Jing Ling and Zhu Zhuqing attacked Huyan Li in succession, but their efforts were in vain. The protective layer around Huyan Li absorbed their strikes, minimizing the damage inflicted.

Dai Mubai's White Tiger Light Wave and Huang Yuan's Furious Wolf Roar Bomb struck almost simultaneously, but they also proved ineffective. The combined force of their attacks was absorbed by Huyan Li's defense, rendering their efforts futile.

At this moment, an unusual scene unfolded. A dull yellow helmet suddenly materialized atop Huyan Li's head. The sudden appearance of the helmet was both surprising and perplexing, capturing the attention of everyone in the arena.

Huo Wushuang laughed, "Look, that guy just put on a helmet! Isn't that cheating?"

Feng Xiaotian tapped Huo Wushuang's head with two fingers, his expression one of mild irritation and impatience.

"What helmet? That's a head Spirit Bone!" he corrected. The head Spirit Bone was a rare and exceptionally powerful artifact, adding a new layer of defense and capability to Huyan Li's already formidable arsenal. It was far more than a simple helmet; it was a crucial element of his strength and skill, significantly elevating the challenge for Shrek Academy.
