"The Worship Hall has given up on attacking Yu Xiaowei, but Qian Renxue hasn't. She still wants to kill Yu Xiaowei."
"Qian Renxue has left the Spirit Hall, and her whereabouts are unknown. There's no movement from the Elder Hall. I wonder if she persuaded the Worship Hall to attack him."
Upon seeing the latest information sent by Yue Guan, Yu Xiaowei frowned.
This Qian Renxue is truly haunting.
He hadn't even settled the matter of slapping her before, and now she wanted to attack him again.
He really wanted to kill Qian Renxue now.
But that wasn't possible.
He didn't have god-level combat strength at the moment, and both Qian Daoliu and Bibi Dong were still alive and well.
So all he could do was passively endure Qian Renxue's attacks and not fight back at all.
Yu Xiaowei sighed irritably and burned the paper in his hand into ashes.
Now the enemy is hidden in the dark, and I am exposed in the light—this situation is extremely unfavorable.
He decided to fight quickly and obtain the head soul bone after the finals. Then he would immediately return to the family—
To avoid further trouble.
Three days passed quickly.
The finals of the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition were about to begin.
Originally, the finals were scheduled to take place in front of the Pope's Palace, symbolizing the highest honor of the Spirit Hall.
But after watching the matches, Bibi Dong temporarily changed her decision, and the location of the finals remained unchanged.
The soul masters in Spirit City cheered and chanted "Long live the Pope!"
Just before the match began, nearly all the soul masters in Spirit City flocked to see the two teams in the finals.
Not to mention the spectator seats—even the corners were packed with people.

In the players' resting area.
Yu Xiaowei stood in front with both hands behind his back, looking up at the six people, and asked seriously:
"There are three Soul Kings and four Soul Masters in the Spirit Hall Academy. Are you afraid?"
"No!"
"Two of the Soul Kings have spirit fusion skills comparable to a Soul Emperor. Are you confident?"
"Yes!"
"Good. In this battle, I will take responsibility for defeating the three Soul Kings. As for the rest, it's up to you. As always, Zhu Zhuqing will protect Rongrong, Tailong will protect Oscar, and Sister Yanyan will assist her cousin. Try to take down the four Soul Masters as quickly as possible. Rongrong's support should focus on her cousin. Don't worry about me. Oscar, prepare more sausages, and everyone carry more of them. Okay, do you understand what to do?"
"Understood."

At the same time, in Spirit Hall Academy, Yu Xiaogang was also making pre-battle arrangements.
"According to the data, Zhu Zhuqing and Yu Xiaowei from Lanba Academy have very high resistance to spiritual-type soul skills."
"Therefore, Hu Liena's opening control should avoid those two and focus on the other three combat-type soul masters."
"Yan's task is the hardest. You're responsible for dealing with Yu Xiaowei."
Yu Xiaogang took out a soul guide timer from his hand, calculated for a moment, and continued:
"You must engage him for at least three minutes. Note that you must stall him for that long. Otherwise, even with the help of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, Xie Yue and Hu Liena won't be able to hold him off."
Hidden in the shadows, Yan silently nodded.
"Xu Yu, your additional amplification must go to Yan. How long he can hold off Yu Xiaowei depends on you."
"Sun Chuantao, Li Kai, Zhang Ping—you three are responsible for attacking the two supporting soul masters. You must defeat them as soon as possible."
"Understood?"
Everyone nodded in unison.
"Understood."

This time, the spectators lined up.
As a noble-tempered woman stepped out and took her seat, the atmosphere in the stands suddenly reached its climax.
Below her sat Ning Fengzhi, Yu Yuanzhen, and three cardinals.
Yu Xiaowei looked up at the dazzling sunlight and observed Bibi Dong on the high stage.
"That's Bibi Dong."
Even from afar, he could still feel the intense hatred emanating from her.
Needless to say, Yu Xiaowei also knew that this was because Dugu Bo had severely injured Qian Renxue, and Bibi Dong was taking out her anger on him.
And from the way Bibi Dong looked at him, it was clear that her hatred wasn't only directed at him—it was also toward her former rival, Liu Erlong. He just didn't know how her Rakshasa God trial was going.
Still, despite her old and new grudges against Yu Xiaogang and Qian Renxue, this madwoman was actually able to restrain herself and not act.
It seems the Rakshasa God hasn't yet eroded her mind, and she can still remain rational.

After stepping onto the stage—
Yu Xiaowei saw Yu Xiaogang with the Spirit Hall Academy team, and his expression immediately turned cold.
Liu Erlong of the Blue Tyrant Academy team also saw Yu Xiaogang and wanted to rush forward, but Flender beside her tightly held her arm.
Yu Yuanzhen in the stands also changed his expression upon seeing his son.
How could this person return to Spirit Hall again?
It seemed he had become the leader of the Spirit Hall Academy.
Before Yu Xiaowei could speak, Yu Tianheng beside him couldn't help but speak first.
"Uncle, why... why did you return to Spirit Hall again?"
"Why didn't you come home?"
"Uncle, do you know how many times I've seen Grandpa staring at your portrait? He… he must want you to come back and see him."
When Yu Tianheng was young, Yu Xiaomeng was busy with family affairs and neglected to care for him.
During that time, it was Yu Xiaogang who played with this nephew and accompanied him through a lonely childhood.
Thus, even though the family later expelled Yu Xiaogang, and everyone in the family gritted their teeth when mentioning his name, Yu Tianheng still respected him.
Seeing Yu Tianheng crying, Yu Xiaogang's calm face also began to falter.
He was silent for a while, his eyes flickering, then he spoke bitterly:
"Tianheng, I can't go back anymore."
Although Yu Xiaogang's voice wasn't loud, Yu Yuanzhen in the stands heard it clearly.
He was also heartbroken by his son's words, but as the head of the family, the interests of the clan always came before family affection.
Yu Xiaogang had leaked the family's secrets, causing the family's research on martial spirits to be taken over by another clan.
That was nearly an act of betrayal.
Thus, no matter how reluctant he was, Yu Yuanzhen still issued the expulsion order, removing his beloved youngest son from the family genealogy.

In the ring, seeing the emotional scene between Yu Tianheng and Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaowei sneered in disgust.
"Why are you pretending to be pitiful?"
"What crime did you commit that the family could tolerate?"
"You were born with half-level innate talent—your soul power could have at least reached level 29. But what did you do with it?"
"Look at Tang Yuehua—she only reached level 9 in her life, but she still managed to run the hidden branch of the Clear Sky Sect successfully. When she returned to the clan, she was still a respected third lady."
"Why did you become a stinking rat that everyone wants to beat?"
"Don't you think so, my dear cousin?"
