The Might of the Mind-Sense Qi Field
When the referee announced the winner of the first match of the first round of the Preliminary Competition, only a small portion of the audience cheered.
That's Nuoding Academy's side.
While the other viewers recognized the exceptional talent of Nuoding Team, they were still somewhat baffled by their winning method.
What they want to see is brutal, visceral combat! Rivers of blood!
But in the end—
The audience still cheered.
After all, the Soul Ring of the Nuoding Team members were too peculiar, and the unknown Soul Skill that made most of the members of all the Advanced Soul Master Academy teams in the arena fainted added to their mystery.
Mystery, in the minds of many, is often associated with power.
As a result, the Nuoding Team gained a lot more fans at this moment.
"Zhou Qing, is this your true strength?"
Looking at his teammates who had all fallen beside him, Yu Tianheng clenched his fists tightly, blood seeping out, using the pain to force himself to stay awake. "The Qi Field Power, this kind of power is completely unreasonable!"
After checking on Dugu Yan, Shi Mo, Shi Mo, and the others, Qin Ming confirmed that they had only fainted and were otherwise unharmed. He breathed a sigh of relief and clenched his fists to calm his trembling emotions.
The power of Mind-Sense Qi Field, if left unchecked, would probably be impossible for any team to defeat.
But then another problem arises:
Why should this power be restricted?
This is not about using the power of weapons other than Martial Soul. If this is to be restricted, then will the use of any new and powerful Self-Created Soul Skill developed by Soul Master also be restricted?
If this were done, the Continental Elite Tournament would no longer be popular among Soul Master!
Unless--
"I protest!"
Just then, the dean of the Blazing Radiance Academy ran onto the field and shouted to Xue Ye in the center of the VIP seats, "Nuoding Academy attacked members of other teams off the field without provocation and should be expelled from the Continental Elite Tournament!"
"I protest too!"
The dean of the Canghui Academy and the team leader also jumped onto the field.
I second that!
I agree!
With the dean of the first Advanced Academy stepping forward, naturally a second, a third, a fourth... followed.
Within a minute, nearly fifteen deans of the Advanced Academy and their team leaders jointly protested, demanding that Nuoding Academy's team be disqualified from the competition.
Although their team members were only knocked unconscious and did not suffer any other substantial injuries, if they were to face Nuoding Academy—
The captain of Nuoding Team only needs to glare at you, and your teammates will faint...
What's the point of fighting then!
This ability is not cheating, but it's even better than cheating!
They protested together, demanding that even if Nuoding Academy's qualification for the competition could not be revoked, they should at least have Xue Ye, Salas emcee, and the referees discuss ways to limit Nuoding Team's ability in this way.
As for losing face?
At a time like this, who cares about saving face? They're sure that those academies who didn't dare to step forward also secretly hoped that Nuoding Team wouldn't appear in the upcoming Preliminary Competition!
Otherwise, how can the elite competition continue?
The true purpose of the competition is clear to everyone: to cultivate talent for the empire!
On a smaller scale—
It's a fact that members of their own team were knocked unconscious for no apparent reason!
As the dean of the academy and the team leader, if they tolerate this, it will be spread by malicious people. If this is spread, it will be a small matter if people say that they cannot protect the students. They might even say that their academy cannot even stand up for the students!
"These guys are really shameless."
Bu Liu stood with his hands on his hips, looking down on the group of guys who wanted to team up to exclude them from the Continental Elite Tournament, Taunt, "Your own team is so weak that it can't even withstand the aura of our captain, who can you blame?"
"We can't blame them. It's just that our captain's younger brother's research achievements in Martial Soul cultivation have dealt them a devastating blow."
Bu Qi's words, which were both an explanation and a veiled sarcasm, enraged the deans of these colleges.
After all, Bu Liu and Bu Qi were speaking in normal voices, and there was also noise outside the arena, so the sound couldn't reach Xue Ye's ears, but it was clear to these people.
However, these deans couldn't easily lay a hand on the seven people in front of the VIP seats and the entire audience, so they could only endure it and hope that the organizers of the Heaven Dou Division could give them an explanation.
But Xue Ye, Ning Fengzhi, and Salas all had a headache.
Although these three are sitting together, they represent the Heaven Dou Royal, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Spirit Hall, respectively. Among them, Ning Fengzhi, even if he is not the organizer of the Heaven Dou City competition area, is an investor, and his opinion is also very important.
If only one college protests, they will not pay any attention to it and will simply order someone to push the protester off the field to avoid delaying the next Preliminary Competition match.
However, fifteen Advanced Academy participated in the event!
For Xue Ye, if he cannot satisfy these fifteen Advanced Academy, the first choice for students graduating from these Advanced Academy in the future will not be the Heaven Dou Empire or the Heaven Dou Royal Family.
For Salas, if he cannot handle this matter well, his previous purpose of deliberately arranging for the Elephant Armored Academy and Nuoding Academy to confront Elephant Armored Sect will not be achieved. In addition, these fifteen academies will also develop a dislike for the Spirit Hall.
But Zhou Qing and the others are truly gifted!
However, it will take more time for their talents to be fully realized. If these fifteen Advanced Academy are directly offended, it will be absolutely impossible for the Martial Soul Hall of Heaven Dou City to develop further in the short term. Even those forces that were previously close to the Spirit Hall will become wary.
How should I choose?
Speaking up for the Nuoding Academy?
Or should we side with those fifteen Advanced Academy?
Among the three, Ning Fengzhi was the most relaxed, after all, he was just an investor. But he also knew that if this matter was not handled properly, the Advanced Academy below would also harbor some resentment towards him and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
[Zhou Qing, you really know how to cause us trouble. Why did you have to knock out the other teams outside the arena too? That kind of power, after three years, I don't believe you couldn't control it...]
Ning Fengzhi strongly suspected that Zhou Qing did it on purpose, with the aim of intimidating the entire audience.
Unconsciously, Ning Fengzhi's gaze fell on Zhou Qing, and Zhou Qing seemed to sense his gaze, looked up, and met his eyes.
Those eyes, as bright as starlight, caused Ning Fengzhi's spirit to tremble slightly. He involuntarily turned his head away and cursed inwardly, "Demon."
With just one glance, he was certain just how terrifying Zhou Qing's progress had been over the past three years.
In terms of Spiritual Power alone, he might already be comparable to himself.
Ordinary Soul Master need to be at least at the Soul Douluo level to access Spiritual Power and explore cultivation methods, but the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has a method for Heart Separation Control.
Although its main purpose is to better assist the direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect in using multiple auxiliary Soul Skill at the same time and to control the distribution of Soul Power, it also means that they have been in contact with Spiritual Power since they started cultivating, which makes them more sensitive to Spiritual Power skills.
Only--
What was Zhou Qing's purpose in intimidating everyone present?
