The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament Opens, Preliminary Rounds
The moonlight was as clear as water, and the night wind whistled.
In the open field, the grass and trees bend and spring back in the wind, making a rustling sound, as if the earth is turning over in a light slumber.
Bibi Dong flashed and landed steadily in front of Hu Liena.
The speed of Titled Douluo is simply unreasonable.
One second they were a hundred meters away, the next they were right in front of you.
Before the wind could catch up, the person had already stood still.
Hu Liena sensed the familiar oppressive aura and immediately stopped, her posture respectful. "Teacher."
Bibi Dong nodded slightly. "No need for formalities, come with me back to Spirit City."
"Yes."
Hu Liena responded.
She hesitated for two seconds, but finally couldn't hold back. "Teacher... I dare to ask, there is something I don't understand."
"Um?"
Bibi Dong paused slightly. "What is it?"
Hu Liena looked up, her eyes filled with undisguised confusion. "Why didn't you tell Lin Qingmo your identity?"
"Teacher, you are the Pope of the Spirit Hall, the most powerful woman on the entire continent. It seems there's absolutely no need for you to hide anything from him."
This is very blunt.
In Hu Liena's mind, her teacher stood at the pinnacle of power, able to turn the world upside down with a flick of his wrist.
Why hide things from a teenager?
Given Lin Qingmo's talent and potential, the sooner he is incorporated into the Spirit Hall's system, the more beneficial it will be for both sides.
This is a perfectly clear account.
Bibi Dong did not answer immediately.
The moonlight outlined her stunning profile, casting a cool and serene silhouette.
A complex emotion churned within her deep eyes, yet she suppressed it completely.
"It's not the right time yet."
Five words, utterly calm and undisturbed.
There was no explanation, no preamble, yet the tone was so certain that it brooked no questioning.
Hu Liena was filled with doubts.
But her years of experience following Bibi Dong told her...
When a teacher speaks in this tone, it signifies the end of the topic.
"Disciple... understands."
Let's go.
Bibi Dong didn't linger; she turned and transformed into a streak of light, disappearing into the distance.
Hu Liena followed closely behind, and the figures of the master and apprentice were quickly swallowed up by the night.
During the flight, a scene suddenly flashed into Hu Liena's mind.
The finals of the Soul Master Tournament were held in the highly anticipated arena of Spirit City.
At that time, Lin Qingmo looked up and saw the teacher on the high platform, wearing Pope Crown and looking down at all living beings.
What expression will he have on his face?
Hu Liena's lips unconsciously curled up into a smile.
Just thinking about it is fascinating.
Heaven Dou Royal Academy
When Lin Qingmo and the others returned, the grandest competition in the entire continent's Soul Master World was just beginning.
The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
This competition was jointly organized by the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, and the Spirit Hall.
It is held every five years.
It is the most prestigious arena for young Soul Master on the mainland.
The champion's reward is simple and straightforward: three top-tier Soul Bone.
This is the best stimulant.
For every Academy team, it was not just a leap in strength, but an opportunity that could rewrite their destiny.
The Soul Master Tournament is divided into preliminary rounds and the finals.
The preliminary rounds are not complicated; they are organized by region.
The Heaven Dou City competition area has a total of 28 Academy teams.
The game employs a seven-player team battle system with single-round duels.
The top five teams in points will advance to the finals.
Twenty-eight teams—that sounds like quite a lineup.
However, there is not much pressure for the Imperial Fighting Team right now.
"Captain, is the strongest enemy on the other side Soul Ancestor?"
Bai Chenxiang flipped through the match list, her tone subtle.
Lin Qingmo leaned against the railing of the stands, arms crossed, looking as relaxed as if he were just enjoying the scenery.
"Some teams can't even gather a full Soul Ancestor; their strongest member is only Soul Elder."
The crowd looked at each other, their expressions shifting between helplessness and amusement.
Zhu Zhuqing touched her nose. "All of them are Spirit King or above competing in the preliminary rounds against Soul Elder Soul Ancestor... that's a bit exaggerated."
Ning Rongrong stuck out her tongue. "Yeah, aren't we being a bit unfair?"
"Hmph, we also worked hard to improve our cultivation. There's no bullying involved. They just didn't work hard enough." Xiao Wu said, hands on her hips, looking proud.
Dugu Yan chuckled, "Xiao Wu is not wrong."
However, she still looked at Lin Qingmo and asked, "A-Qing, you probably won't be playing in the qualifiers, right?"
Lin Qingmo shook his head slightly. "Of course I'm not interested."
joke.
If you can defeat Soul Douluo, it's just too inhumane of you to go out and bully kids.
Not to mention myself, even the appearance of Spirit Emperor Xiao Wu and Dugu Yan was quite excessive.
What's outrageous is that each of them possesses two or three top-grade, Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone.
He felt that apart from the Spirit Hall Academy, no other team could compete with the current Imperial Fighting Team.
Lin Qingmo held up one finger. "You can have fun as you please, but there's one thing you need to remember."
"During the preliminary rounds, everyone must only display the strength of Soul Ancestor; revealing Spirit King cultivation level is strictly prohibited."
"Keep your cards hidden, don't let anyone see your true strength."
In the Heaven Dou City division, a team with all members at the Soul Ancestor is already the most powerful team.
Moreover, even if they only use four Spirit Ring and Soul Skill, the power they unleash far surpasses that of ordinary Soul Ancestor.
Just as Lin Qingmo had predicted, the preliminary rounds for the Imperial Fighting Team proceeded without any suspense.
Even with their strength suppressed, the Imperial Fighting Team still won every match cleanly and decisively.
Xiao Wu and the others were getting a little bored.
Some teams were completely suppressed within the first thirty seconds.
Before they could even coordinate, they were all subjected to the entire process of being crushed.
Some Captain were still shouting tactical commands when the front row was already knocked to the ground.
That sense of despair stemmed from the power imbalance itself.
Of course, some teams are desperately trying to find a breakthrough.
They tried to focus fire, tried to divide and conquer, and tried to disrupt the rhythm.
It turned out that the positioning of the seven people on the other side was flawless.
They weren't playing a match at all; it was more like giving a tutorial on precise team fight pacing.
Teams that knew their own limitations all chose to concede defeat when they encountered the Imperial Fighting Team.
Nobody wants to be beaten up and run away in the presence of a group of women in front of everyone.
After the match, a saying quietly circulated among the Academy in the Heaven Dou Division: "If you encounter a Royal Fighter, just admit defeat and that's it."
Lin Qingmo ignored these discussions.
The qualifiers were just a formality.
In his spare time, he pulled up the information about the preliminary rounds.
Shrek's lineup for this battle is quite interesting.
Of the original Shrek Seven Monsters, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing are all gone.
The substitutes who moved into the starting lineup are Yu Tianheng, Osler, and Shi Mo.
Shrek's main seven members: Tang San, Dai Mubai, Yu Tianheng, Osler, Shi Mo, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar.
The five substitutes are: Shi Mo, Huang Yuan, Jing Ling, Tai Long, Jiang Zhu.
Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang was appointed as the overall tactical commander, with Dean Flender and Zhao Wuji overseeing the operations.
They lost three female Soul Master but gained three more combat-oriented fighters who rely on direct, aggressive attacks.
Their overall ability to fight head-on is actually more ferocious than the original lineup.
None of this surprised him.
What surprised him the most was Tang San!
