Comment
The ads appear despite the AdGuard Chrome Browser extension being enabled. I am not able to manually block them on the webpage via the "Block ads manually" option given on the extension, as the feature fails to detect the section of the web page where the ads appear.

AdGuard fails to block ads on certain websites: I tried to block them manually, but the ads reappeared after a few seconds.

Cambridge dictionary now detects AdGuard and redirects to error page after few seconds on the website and asks to allow html-load.com or just turn off AdGuard. I tried few things to solve the issue, but none of them worked.
