Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 164: Yu Xiaogang’s Brilliant

The next day.

The day of the sparring match between the Blue Tyant Battle Team and the Shrek Battle Team had arrived.

Many people had been invited to watch the match at the Soul Arena.

Flender strongly insisted upon this.

Even though Liu Erlong didn't want the two teams' information exposed to outsiders,Flender insisted that since there was a bet involved, those who placed their bets had to see it with their own eyes—he had to invite everyone over.

The Elemental Battle Teams were more than happy about this, and all accepted the invitations.

Especially the Tianshui Battle Team—they still had an upcoming soul duel against the Blue Tyrant Team. Getting firsthand information now was a huge win!

Dan Heng also came, being pulled to a secluded corner by Gu Yuena, away from the crowd, whispering together.

"Husband, who do you think will win?"Gu Yuena asked.

Dan Heng replied,

"If Zhuqing takes the field, then Blue Tyrant Team wins. If not, then Shrek will."

Gu Yuena nodded lightly.

"I think the same. So Zhuqing will play this round."

"How about we bet on how long the match will last? If you lose... you're not allowed to rest tonight."

Her cheeks flushed as she stared intently at Dan Heng.

Dan Heng felt a jolt in his heart. Faced with Gu Yuena's high spirits, he genuinely wanted to run.

Not because he lacked ability, and not because he was tired of her.

"Husband... you're not scared, are you?"Gu Yuena squinted her eyes, gently held Dan Heng's hand, and smiled slyly.

Dan Heng shook his head, his emotions immediately stirred.

"More than ten minutes."

"Great! Then I bet it'll end within ten minutes. It's a deal. Let's try to have a baby tonight."

Gu Yuena nestled into Dan Heng's arms, face full of bliss.

Upon hearing the word "baby," Dan Heng's heart skipped a beat. How could they possibly have a baby?

Over by the Tianshui Team, seeing Dan Heng and Gu Yuena so close, Shui Yue'er looked on enviously, sighing deeply.

Xue Wu patted her shoulder with a chuckle,

"Yue'er, now you see the reality, right? That guy's already married—and very much in love. You better not make a mistake."

Shui Yue'er pouted,

"I-I just admire Mr. Dan Heng's looks. After all, once we leave, we might never see him again. I never planned to ruin someone's family!"

"Besides, Mr. Dan Heng and his wife are a perfect match—truly made for each other..."

The more she spoke, the redder her eyes became.

The other girls didn't dare tease anymore, afraid she'd start crying.

Shui Bing'er quickly hugged her sister's shoulders, trying to comfort her.

"It's okay, Yue'er, let's focus on the match. Don't worry about anything else..."

Bing'er sighed quietly—this time, her sister didn't just fall for his looks. She actually developed feelings.

Too bad Dan Heng was already taken. But in a way, it was also lucky.

Their family would never allow Shui Yue'er to marry a regular person anyway.

Yue'er replied softly,

"You guys don't understand how outstanding Mr. Dan Heng is. His wife must be amazing too. This match... the Blue Tyrant Team is going to win..."

The other girls stayed No one dared say anything now.

Flender said to Liu Erlong,

"Erlong, you guys are going to lose this time."

Liu Erlong crossed her arms and sneered,

"You're way too confident, Flender! Once you see how powerful our Blue Tyrant Team is, you won't be so smug!"

Flender laughed,

"You don't know what kind of ace we've got up our sleeve."

"Not just you—even the Emperor Battle Team would lose to us. Because..."

He trailed off, deliberately creating suspense.

Liu Erlong furrowed her brows—she suddenly noticed something odd. Among the Shrek teachers watching, Yu Xiaogang was missing!

"You—you didn't bring Yu Xiaogang onto the field, did you?!"

Her voice jumped in pitch.

Flender clapped with a laugh,

"Smart as always, Erlong! Yep, Xiaogang's on the field. He'll be the brain of the match! Still feel confident?"

"Despicable!!!" Liu Erlong gnashed her teeth.

Flender grinned proudly,

"Now you know why I pushed for this bet? With a master-level strategist like him, we can punch above our weight class!"

Liu Erlong's face darkened. Even she had to admit Flender was right. Suddenly, she wasn't so sure Blue Tyrant Team could win.

She shot Flender a fierce glare and ran toward Gu Yuena.

Gu Yuena waved her hand casually, telling her to scram—don't ruin her quality time with her husband.

Liu Erlong stood a bit further away and muttered,

"Teacher Gu, Shrek's going too far... they're putting Yu Xiaogang on the field..."

She poured out her frustrations, sighing repeatedly.

"Isn't this cheating? We're doomed!"

Gu Yuena snorted,

"Yu Xiaogang? What's he to me?"

"Huh?" Liu Erlong blinked.

If it were anyone else, she'd be furious.

But it was Gu Yuena—Lanba's prized teacher. She couldn't get angry. She awkwardly explained:

"Yu Xiaogang is a legendary theory master! He's really impressive, especially in his strategies—"

"Please, you guys overrate him. With him on the field, Lanba will win even easier."Gu Yuena dismissed him without a second glance.

Liu Erlong opened her mouth, wanting to retort. Even if she was mad at him right now, she still didn't like others disrespecting Yu Xiaogang.

"We're going to lose..."

"Then watch and see. Don't bother me."Gu Yuena bluntly drove her off.

Liu Erlong could only slink away awkwardly.

She looked toward the Soul Arena—her confidence had shifted toward Shrek.

"Xiaogang, you'd better win beautifully!"

On the Soul Arena, both teams entered the stage.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang on the opposing team, the Lanba Team burst out laughing.

"Gramps, you're old! What are you doing in the field? What if you throw your back out? We'll get blamed for it!"

Tai Long shouted mockingly.

The others joined in with jeers.

Zhu Zhuqing stood calmly watching the Shrek Team. When she saw Dai Mubai, a flicker of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

She had learned from Zi Ji that Dai Mubai had gone off messing around again.

That kind of man... was her fiancé?!

Meanwhile, Dai Mubai was staring intently at Zhu Zhuqing—his eyes burning with desire.

That body... perfection. If only she were under me...

Tang San clenched his teeth,

"Those bastards! I won't let them off!"

"Xiao San, have you forgotten my teachings? Keep calm on the battlefield—that's rule number one. You still need to learn."Yu Xiaogang said coolly.

Tang San lowered his head,

"Yes, Teacher. Sorry. I got too emotional..."

A cold light flickered in his eyes—he'd make Tai Long pay during the match.

Yu Xiaogang said,

"For this match, I'm your commander. Everyone follows my orders—especially you, Tang San. Don't act on your own."

"Yes, sir!!!"

The Shrek members nodded in unison.

"Begin!!"

At the judge's call, both sides sprang into action.

Yu Xiaogang remained in the center of the Shrek team. He didn't release his Martial Soul—still a sore point for him.

Seeing Lanba using their soul power fusion technique, he sneered.

"Showing off in front of the master? Let them see our fusion technique!"

He placed his hand on Ma Hongjun in front of him. Each team member transferred their soul power forward—until it all converged on Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai roared as his soul power surged. Facing the advancing Blue Tyrant members, he charged forward with warlike intent.

With power gathered from the entire team, he didn't think Tai Long could match him.

"ROAR!!"

Dai Mubai lunged forward. Tai Long also advanced—and soon, they clashed.

Dai Mubai unleashed a white blast of light, striking Tai Long squarely before he could dodge.

"BOOM!!"

Tai Long staggered back several meters.

Dai Mubai sneered,

"Trash! You dare challenge the Shrek Team?"

Behind him, Yu Xiaogang barked more orders.

"No arrogance! Even a lion uses its full strength to catch a rabbit. Fatty, control the air! Oscar, keep making sausages! Tang San, cover our area with Blue Silver Grass! Xiao Wu, your job is to tail their agility types!"

"We must finish the battle within three minutes!"

Yu Xiaogang's voice was full of pride.

Now that he was on the field, he had to win—beautifully—to show the world his brilliance!

Tang San opened his mouth helplessly.

Three soul rings flashed—his Blue Silver Grass flooded their surroundings.

Still, he wanted to replace Dai Mubai—he was more versatile!

"Teacher, Dai Mubai is reckless and over-aggressive. If the enemy is baiting him, they can use him as a weak point..."

Tang San suggested, hoping to be put in front.

He was a jack-of-all-trades—control, agility, power!

Yu Xiaogang answered coldly,

"Follow my orders."

Tang San had no choice—under Yu Xiaogang, he could only unleash 50–60% of his strength.

Meanwhile, Dai Mubai had Tai Long on the back foot. Ma Hongjun rained fire down from above.

But then—

A giant water sphere appeared in midair, colliding with Ma Hongjun's fire attacks.

"Sizzle!!!"

White mist billowed, engulfing Dai Mubai and the Blue Tyrant Team.

"Shit!!!" Ma Hongjun cursed. He couldn't fire blindly now—might hit his teammate.

"Mubai, get out of there!!"

Inside the mist, Dai Mubai was surrounded—but he didn't panic. He charged toward a direction—

"Out of the way!"

But the person blocking him was Tai Long!

Tai Long's strength had increased. The two locked up again.

Then, the rest of the Blue Tyrant Team activated their soul skills all at once!

Six people attacked Dai Mubai at the same time!

Even with enhanced soul power, he couldn't withstand it, especially with someone like Zhu Zhuqing among them!

Yu Xiaogang cursed,

"Damn it!"

Tang San clenched his teeth,

"Teacher! We must attack now! Or go into support Mubai!"

"No! That could hurt Mubai too. If we move, we fall into their rhythm!"

Yu Xiaogang scowled,

"Wait for the result! Mubai's not that easy to defeat... Fatty, disperse that mist!"

Tang San's face turned awkward. He suddenly realized—

His teacher was a theory master, but had no actual combat experience.

If it were him in that mist, he'd handle it just fine.

But Mubai...?

He activated his Purple Demon Eye, scanning the scene.

The mist was clearing thanks to Ma Hongjun. He spotted a black shadow rushing out.

"It's Dai Mubai!"

He was carrying someone—Zhu Zhuqing, riding on his back, heading toward Shrek!

"Oh no!" Tang San quickly grew Blue Silver Grass to block them.

"Your Xiao Wu has been watching you closely!"

Xiao Wu stepped on Tang San's grass, rushing to intercept Zhu Zhuqing.

But Zhu Zhuqing was faster—like a black cat in the night.

She stepped on Xiao Wu's long leg and reached the front line.

Xiao Wu was stunned—Zhu Zhuqing was way too fast!

Even though Zhu Zhuqing was only a Soul Elder, the soul fusion technique gave her Soul Ancestor-level speed.

She slashed a red line across Xiao Wu's neck, stepped on her shoulder, and dove into the center of the Shrek Team.

Now, with Ma Hongjun in the air, Dai Mubai seriously injured, and Xiao Wu eliminated,only Tang San had any real fighting power left!

"Xiao Wu!" Tang San panicked, especially seeing the red line on her neck.

"I'm out!!" Xiao Wu shouted and retreated.

"Stop her! Stop her! Xiao San, use your Blue Silver Grass! Forget about Mubai!"Yu Xiaogang shouted.

He finally summoned his Martial Soul—Luo San Pao. Better to lose face than lose the match.

They all ate sausages, flying into the air to escape Zhu Zhuqing's assassination.

Tang San tried to trap Zhu Zhuqing, but she evaded effortlessly.

She kicked Dai Mubai off the stage, snapped two strands of Blue Silver Grass, and returned to the Blue Tyramt Team.

The mist cleared.

Blue Tyrant Team—all members still standing.

Shrek Team—Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu eliminated.

Time: about two minutes.

Yu Xiaogang's face darkened—it was too embarrassing!

"Ma Hongjun! Full saturation attack! You have air dominance—they can't reach you! We still have the advantage!"

He shouted orders.

"Teacher, I can—"

Tang San tried to speak again.

Yu Xiaogang snapped,

"Get back up here, Xiao San!!"

"..."
