Chapter 110: Chapter 110: Dugu Yan's Scheme for Immortal Herbs!
As the spirit battles continued, the Shrek team made waves at the Soto Great Spirit Arena over the next month. They participated in 27 team battles, claiming victory in 26, dominating the thirty-level division without rivals. Even the previously victorious Kuang Zhan team was no match for them.
Yun Feng, in particular, was unstoppable. His appearances were synonymous with slaughter, and no opponent could last more than a minute against him. In personal matches, many chose to forfeit upon seeing him, preferring to conserve energy for future matches rather than endure a beating. This led to Yun Feng achieving impressive records in team, duo, and solo battles, with 17, 21, and 23 consecutive victories, respectively, without a single loss.
Despite the separate calculation of win streaks for different battle types, Yun Feng's points soared due to his many consecutive wins. If not for the arena's rule of recalculating points at the end of the month, he would have surpassed the Iron Spirit Badge level by now.
Despite this, the impressive performances of Yun Feng and the Shrek team caught the arena's attention. If not for their low badge level, which barred them from the central arena's minimum requirement of a Silver Spirit level, they might have been invited to compete in the main events.
Arriving at the arena on the second day of the month, the Shrek team was set for battles without rest, marking the end of a month. With the conclusion of today's battles, their additional bonus points would be calculated, elevating them from their current Iron Spirit Badge status.
As night fell, Soto City was aglow with the lights of the bustling Soto Great Spirit Arena. Spectators flocked from all directions, eager to watch the battles. Luxurious carriages, escorted by guards, entered through the VIP entrance, carrying nobles and influential families. These patrons were interested in the main arena events.
On this end-of-month weekend, the arena was the prime leisure spot for many. Not only could they enjoy thrilling battles, but they could also gamble a little, supporting their favored spirit masters.
The Shrek team, including Yu Xiaogang, Flender, and Zhao Wuji, entered the arena separately. This wasn't to conceal their identities but rather a necessity. Their impressive achievements had made them popular among spectators, despite not yet reaching the main arena.
To avoid unwanted attention and questions about their identities, they had started entering the arena in their normal appearances, only to change into their uniforms and masks at designated spots for registration. This guessing game about which division they would appear in had become a favorite pastime for the arena's outer audience.
Today's strategy was the same. Dressed simply, no one noticed the group of teenagers entering the arena. Their age served as the perfect disguise. Despite the masks, which spared them much hassle, their youthful appearance was their best cover.
Team battles, being the last to start, were the first to register. To avoid facing each other in solo and duo matches, Yu Xiaogang assigned them different divisions for the initial contests. This prevented any interference with their win streaks.
Yu Xiaogang, acting as their manager, handled the team battle registration. For today's entry, he chose the eighth division, confident in their upcoming victory. With the month's matches nearing completion, their Silver Spirit level was within reach, pending today's results.
Yu Xiaogang preferred his students to remain low-profile, aware that their youth, if exposed, would attract unwelcome attention. After today's events, he planned to lead the Shrek team into their third stage of trials.
At the team battle registration, Yu Xiaogang handed the Shrek team's badge to the staff. "Please register us for the team battle."
The staff member, upon reading the badge, was visibly shocked and muttered, "Shrek?" This reaction displeased Yu Xiaogang, as the staff was usually composed and professional, even when facing high-level spirit masters.
"Are you Shrek's leader?" the staff member asked cautiously.
Hoping to expedite the process, Yu Xiaogang replied, "Yes, can you register us quickly?"
"Please wait a moment," the staff member said, hurrying to the back with the badge, leaving Yu Xiaogang puzzled.
Curious about the delay, Yun Feng approached Yu Xiaogang, asking, "Master, what's happening? Why is registration taking so long?"
Feeling a bit intimidated by Yun Feng's height, Yu Xiaogang took a step back for comfort before explaining, "The staff took our badge and asked us to wait, running to the back for some reason."
Yun Feng maintained his cheerful demeanor, though internally, he was strategizing. "Is this when we meet Dugu Yan? Time to gather some immortal herbs!"
