Two days before the official start of the Soul Master Competition, the three Committee Members of Heaven Dou Royal Academy summoned the team's teachers and teammates to the Meeting Hall.

Meng Shenji, the Chief Committee Member, scanned everyone present with his wise eyes, his voice steady and full of power:

"Everyone, the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Competition is about to officially begin. It's time to showcase your strength and style.

This year, our Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team's lineup, whether in terms of spirit power depth or the uniqueness of our spirits, is unprecedentedly luxurious, stronger than any previous competition.

Each of you is the pride of the academy and the future hope of this continent.

I believe you will be able to represent the academy and achieve unprecedentedly good results in the Soul Master Competition, bringing glory to the academy."

As the team captain, Yu Tianheng said:

"Please rest assured, esteemed Committee Members. We will go all out."

The three Committee Members nodded with satisfaction.

Baishan said:

"Remember, the arena is like a battlefield. It requires not only strength but also teamwork and an indomitable spirit. Each of you must unleash your greatest potential, fight hard for the honor of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and for your own dreams!"

Zhilin continued:

"Children, no matter the outcome, you are already the brightest stars in our hearts. In the competition, stay calm, trust each other, and you will be invincible. Remember, victory belongs not only to individuals, but also to the entire team, to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and even more so to everyone who supports you."

The words of the Three Committee Members ignited the fighting spirit in everyone's hearts.

Everyone's eyes became even more determined, filled with a longing for victory.

Teacher Liu Zhicheng stepped forward.

"Students, you've all heard the committee members' words. This is our opportunity, and also our challenge. As your Team Leader Teacher, I will fight alongside you until the very last moment. Let us join hands and show everyone our Strength in the name of Heaven Dou Royal Academy!"

Liu Zhicheng's gaze swept across everyone, lingering a bit longer on Long Chen.

Ten years ago, the first time Liu Zhicheng saw Long Chen, he felt he was unusual.

Now, he had already grown into the youngest Battle Soul King on the Douluo Continent.

Sixteen years old, Level Fifty-Six.

With Long Chen's current growth rate, he was bound to become the youngest War Soul Emperor in the recorded history of the Douluo Continent, with boundless prospects.

After the meeting ended, Long Chen and Ye Lingling were kept behind by the Three Committee Members.

Meng Shenji smiled and said:

"Lingling, are your parents well?"

"Thank you for your concern, Teacher. They are very well."

"Good, that's good."

As Meng Shenji spoke, he turned to Zhilin and Baishan beside him and gestured with his hand:

"When Ye Tianming sent this Girl here, she was only this tall. In the blink of an eye, these two children have grown so big."

"Yes, in the blink of an eye, Xiao Chen has been at our academy for five years."

The three old men looked at Long Chen and Ye Lingling with kind smiles, recalling the past, and couldn't help but sigh.

Long Chen and Ye Lingling exchanged a smile, also recalling the scene on their first day at the academy.

Ten years had passed just like that.

"Xiao Chen, Lingling, although we knew long ago that your futures would be bright, we never expected that you would achieve the status of Battle Soul King at the age of sixteen. Especially Xiao Chen, he achieved this before he was even sixteen. We don't know how you both managed it, but that doesn't matter. What matters is that you did it, and you are about to represent Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the competition. You are destined to become the glory of the academy."

Hearing Meng Shenji's words, Long Chen humbly replied:

"The Royal Academy has the empire's strongest Teaching Staff and cultivation Resources. We wouldn't have achieved our current success without the academy's cultivation. Please rest assured, esteemed committee members, we will do our utmost to win the highest honor for the academy, even the Champion."

Hearing the word "Champion," the Three Committee Members exchanged smiles.

"Xiao Chen, I'm very happy you have such determination, but don't put too much pressure on yourself. If the Royal Fighting Team can achieve better results than the Star Luo Royal Academy Team in this Soul Master Competition, we will be content."

The three committee members all knew very well that among the teams in this Soul Master Competition, the overall strength of the Spirit Hall Academy Team was much stronger than any participating team in previous years.

The three of them dared not hope that the Royal Fighting Team could defeat the powerful Spirit Hall Academy Team. They only wished to defeat the Star Luo Royal Academy Team when they met.

This was not only about the honor of the academy, but also a contest between the young generation of soul masters from the Two Great Empires.

"Three committee members, please rest assured. If we encounter the Star Luo Royal Academy Team, we will definitely defeat them."

"Good, I believe you."

Afterward, Long Chen and Ye Lingling left the conference room under the expectant gazes of the three committee members.

Watching their gradually disappearing figures, Meng Shenji sighed:

"These two children both have incredibly bright futures. In this Soul Master Competition, they might truly bring a miracle."

"Yes, anything is possible."

~~~~~~

The capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City.

The day the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Competition officially began had finally arrived.

As the host city for the Heaven Dou Division, Heaven Dou City would hold a grand opening ceremony.

As one of the three seed teams that had advanced to the Finals early, Heaven Dou Royal Academy did not need to participate in the Preliminary Match and Advancement Match of the Heaven Dou Division.

However, as a team of the empire and representing the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, they still had to attend the opening ceremony.
