As the first two rounds of competition come to an end, the top ten of Soul Master Tournament have been born. It can be said that every next game will be a strong showdown.
In the third round of the competition, Skywater Team, who ranked second in the Heaven Dou Division promotion competition, had a bye. As the draw results were announced, Shrek Academy played against the Star Luo Royal Academy, and Spirit Hall played against the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
These four teams can be said to be the most popular teams at present, but now two of them will be eliminated in the third round.
However, from the perspective of the academy members involved, these are two unsuspicious matches. Take Star Luo Royal Academy as an example. Even without Tang San, Zhu Zhuqing alone cannot compete with the Star Luo Royal Academy. Without special means, almost no one at the same level can withstand her poison.
And Heaven Dou Royal Academy not to mention...
Huo Yuhao was looking at the situation of each team when he suddenly felt a line of sight looking towards him. He subconsciously looked towards the viewing area and met Dugu Bo's pitiful gaze. He saw the opponent's lips making a gesture towards him.
"You brat, be gentle."
Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched slightly, and he spread his hands helplessly, "I'm not going to play today!" Then he pointed to Hu Liena beside him, indicating that this is the protagonist.
Dugu Bo's eyes widened and he pursed his lips at Hu Liena beside him.
"Then please help me quickly and beg for mercy!"
Unable to withstand the other party's crazy hints, Huo Yuhao looked at Hu Liena on the side with a grimace, but the other party had already discovered the communication between him and Poison Douluo, and was looking at Poison Douluo in the distance with a smile.
"Don't worry, I will keep my hand. Besides, I have to help you promote Soul Spirit, right?"
As he said this, Hu Liena made a reassuring gesture towards Poison Douluo.
As for the Shrek Academy, after seeing the announcement, Dai Mubai returned directly to the lounge, explained his life experience to everyone, took a deep breath, and spoke solemnly to everyone.
"So this game is very important to me. I hope everyone can help me win it."
"I didn't expect that our captain is still a prince, so I won't be embarrassed if I say it. Don't worry, Boss Dai, our brothers will go all out in this game to help you support the show!"
I saw Oscar and Ma Hongjun looking at each other, stepping forward and patting each other on the shoulder, with fighting spirit shining in their eyes.
"And Xiao Wu and I, we didn't have a chance to play in the first or second round, so let's start with Star Luo Team! Let them see our strength!"
Dai Mubai stared blankly at the five people in front of him who were full of fighting spirit. After a long time, he took a long breath and shook his head with a wry smile.
"You guys... make me embarrassed."
Zhu Zhuqing on the side also looked at him and spoke softly.
"If you win this game, you will terminate our engagement when you return."
"Okay... wait, you don't plan to go back?"
Dai Mubai was slightly startled, looked at Zhu Zhuqing and asked in surprise.
Because of the strength of the team, even without Tang San, he believed that Zhu Zhuqing, who started Soul Spirit, could lead Shrek to victory. Although he was a little nervous, he didn't think his side would lose.
As for the engagement, he is now in a relationship with a student from Skywater Team, so it will naturally be annulled, but seeing that the other person is like this, he doesn't intend to go back and take over the family.
"No, please go back and resolve these matters. I don't want to get involved in this kind of competition between families. After winning this game, these things that bind me will disappear. I don't want to go back to that kind of intrigue. Power is not what I want to pursue."
Zhu Zhuqing shook his head slightly and expressed his thoughts. The picture in his mind returned to the days when he first joined Shrek.
Now think about it, from the moment she asked Huo Yuhao at the door of the dormitory in the Shrek Academy, her life had been changed by that boy.
Maybe the other person's face looks better now, but the way he turned his back to the moonlight and smiled brightly that night will forever be etched in her memory.
That was the beginning of her new life.
Thinking of this, Zhu Zhuqing raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and a warm smile bloomed on his cold face.
In the days to come, I want to... keep following in his footsteps.
Looking at the expression of the girl Huaichun, everyone seemed to understand something. This was a friend who had found his own future. While blessing her in his heart, he was also a little confused about his own future.
"So, the dean seems to have told us that Soul Master Tournament is our graduation exam. When the competition is over, we should graduate, right?"
"Well, Boss Dai is going back to inherit the family business. I haven't even decided what I'm going to do after graduation..."
"If you don't have anywhere to go, you can come with me to the Star Luo Empire. I'll keep you safe after I succeed to the throne..."
A smile appeared on Dai Mubai's lips, but before he finished speaking, Ning Rongrong's voice interrupted him.
"Since you can't make up your mind, why not join Yuhao's forces?"
I saw Ning Rongrong looking at Oscar and Ma Hongjun who were a little confused, and tilted his head in confusion.
"Huh?"
The sudden words made everyone stunned, and subconsciously turned their attention to Ning Rongrong.
"Yuhao's power? Spirit Hall?"
"No."
Ning Rongrong shook his head.
"Dad mentioned to me the night before yesterday that Yuhao plans to establish a neutral force after Soul Master Tournament to popularize Soul Spirit Contract. Currently, it is led by the Spirit Hall and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect jointly funded the construction of a high tower on the edge of Star Dou Great Forest as an organizational stronghold, and Yuhao served as the tower owner. At the same time, my father and Spirit Hall Pope will serve as the deputy tower master. The specific situation seems to be still under discussion, but the name of the force has been determined. It is called--Spirit Pagoda?"
"..."
The scene was a little quiet for a while, and then Xiao Wu suddenly raised his hand.
"I want to join!"
Needless to say, Zhu Zhuqing on the side, her expression just now showed her attitude.
Oscar coughed twice and looked at Dai Mubai on the side with a teasing tone.
"Boss Dai, I'm sorry, I'm afraid I won't have the opportunity to enjoy the prince's treatment."
Ma Hongjun's eyes also burst out with blazing light.
"Then there must be many beautiful beauties Soul Master gathered there! If I join from the beginning, I will also be a veteran in the future. Isn't it easy to find a girlfriend? Boss Dai, brothers will not accompany you."
Dai Mubai looked at the two people who rebelled instantly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he coughed twice.
"Ahem, I thought about it. There is no rush to become the emperor, and it is indeed very fulfilling to develop a force from scratch. How can I be spared from such a thing?"
"Hmm? Boss Dai Are you not going back to be the emperor?"
"It's not that early. My dad is still in good health. It may not be my turn to be the emperor in twenty years. Soul Master Tournament is over. I will go back for a few years to deal with the troubles. Maybe I can come back as a prince... What? You really want me to leave?"
"What a great relationship! We Shrek can get together after graduation, but I never expected that the dignified prince Star Luo Empire would actually work with me."
Hearing the other party's teasing, Dai Mubai chuckled and shook his head.
"It's still early. Even if I win this time, I'm only qualified to compete. But since I can go to the poker table, I'm still confident that I won't lose to my big brother."
"With good brothers like us, how can we lose? If we encounter trouble, I'll just rush over and help you support the situation!"
Suddenly there was a creaking sound, and the door of the lounge was pushed open, and Tang San was seen at the door. He glanced at everyone, his eyes were a little surprised, why were everyone's faces so happy?
But he didn't care about this. Soul Master Tournament was almost coming to an end, and he would no longer need to interact with them soon. He was destined not to be a stranger.
Thinking of this, he spoke in a calm tone.
"It's our turn to play."
The host's excited voice also sounded at the right time.
"Now, please invite members Shrek Academy Team and Star Luo Royal Academy Team to enter!"
The six people looked at each other and smiled, Dai Mubai twisted his neck and took the lead to walk out.
"Let's go and start our first graduation battle!"
After the whole game, Zhu Zhuqing's performance told everyone how terrifying she was when she went all out. At the beginning of the game, she activated the third Soul Skill at the same time as Silver Moon Wolf. The effect produced by the cooperation of the two shocked Tang San.
The opponent actually had a hidden skill. You must know that when Silver Moon Wolf appeared before, he never released Soul Skill. Even he couldn't solve it in a short time with the combat power that just broke out.
"How could you... become so strong."
Zhu Zhuqing stood next to Silver Moon Wolf, quietly looking at Zhu Zhuyun who was lying on the ground with a frightened face. An indifferent voice sounded, but it was not an answer to the other party's question.
"You lost."
She originally thought she would be happy when she won, but now she only felt relieved, and because the shackles that imprisoned her soul were broken, her body and mind felt unprecedented freedom.
"Lost..."
At this moment, the eyes of her sister who was six years older than her were full of fear. She knew very well what would happen to her if she lost this family competition.
"Go back and tell them that from today on, I am Zhu Zhuqing, quit Zhu Family, and don't bother me again in the future."
"!?"
Zhu Zhuyun trembled all over and looked up at the other party in disbelief. He obviously won, but he wants to withdraw from the family?
"Why?"
"Because I have found what I want... In fact, I should thank you. If it weren't for escaping from you, I wouldn't have met you..."
The words stopped suddenly, and Zhu Zhuqing realized that she was still a little speechless because of the pressure accumulated over the years. She pursed her lower lips and shook her head.
"That's it, I hope we never meet again."
After saying that, Silver Moon Wolf turned into a stream of light and penetrated into her chest, turned around and walked out of the venue. Along the way, she subconsciously looked towards the viewing area of the Spirit Hall, and met the faint smile of Huo Yuhao.
"Congratulations."
The other person's lips didn't move, but a gentle voice sounded in his mind.
"... Hmm."
"Winner--Shrek Academy!"
On the playing field, the host's passionate voice resounded throughout the playing field, and he immediately popularized the new system called Soul Spirit, having already received the news.
And this ability, called Soul Spirit, was finally unveiled in front of everyone.
Everyone understood what a terrifying ability this was, and it could completely crush the existing Soul Ring system.
"One Soul Beast can provide multiple Soul Ring, and can release Soul Skill to help Soul Master fight together... Isn't the strength of people with Soul Spirit far stronger than ordinary Soul Master!?"
"So, where can I get it?"
Seeing that his task was completed, the host, who had been talking about the manuscript for a long time, wiped the sweat from his forehead. Not to mention the audience just now, even he was extremely curious, but now the competition is still important, so he spoke again.
"After Soul Master Tournament, Spirit Hall will make a special announcement to answer your questions. Now, please turn your attention back to our next game."
Just when everyone was confused, the next game of the Spirit Hall and Heaven Dou Royal Academy was ready to begin.
As the Heaven Dou Team members came on the stage, the leader Yu Tianheng, who was walking at the front, subconsciously looked towards the audience and found that the white-haired figure was still sitting there, and he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he would rather face the three Golden Generation than face that Holy Son.
The last time he received a solid punch from the opponent that emitted golden light, it caused huge damage to his soul. For a long time, as long as he thought about that figure in his mind, he couldn't muster any fighting spirit. Although it has improved now, he doesn't want to get punched again...
Then he turned his attention to Spirit Hall Team, who was walking slowly from the opposite side. The one walking in the front was a girl with long black hair, exuding huge temptation in every move.
"Hu Liena..."
As the only female team member of Golden Generation, Yu Tianheng felt excited again. This was not a simple opponent, and their knowledge of Hu Liena was limited to the opponent's name.
The next scene that happened immediately made the entire audience feel suffocated.
Two yellow, two purple and two black, a perfect Soul Ring ratio. Those six Soul Ring refreshed every audience's understanding. However, it was not over yet. The fifth Soul Ring lit up, and a fox with special lines emerged from her chest and landed in front of everyone.
When Grandmaster who was watching saw this scene, he was so frightened that he stood up from his seat. Tang San's face was full of disbelief and his whole body was trembling uncontrollably.
"No, it's impossible! How could he be the Soul Emperor!?"
At this moment, their calculations completely failed. Not to mention injuring all Spirit Hall members in the arena, whether they could win or not was a question...
After absorbing two Immortal Herb, Hu Liena is not something Heaven Dou Team can compete with in terms of mental power or Soul Power. In her charm Under Soul Skill, the Spirit Hall member cooperated with her Star-Patterned Fox. It can be said that the battle ended effortlessly, and Soul Spirit's presence was once again highlighted in front of everyone.
The draw results of the fourth round were soon announced. It seemed that in order to eliminate the weak ones, the three currently strong teams Tianshui, Shrek, and Spirit Hall did not draw each other, but faced the remaining three weaker teams.
The fourth round of the game came to an end without much suspense. Spirit Hall even won the game this round solely on the bench.
At this point, the audience has already seen that the championship is Spirit Hall's. Until the finals, the opponent is still hiding his strength. Golden Generation Only Hu Liena and Holy Son showed their faces. One did not show Soul Ring at all, and the other directly showed the Soul Emperor's cultivation.
It's like an adult bullying a group of children.
This also makes everyone look forward to the finals even more, hoping that someone can force Spirit Hall to show his true strength and let them see how terrifying this generation's strongest genius is.
Huo Yuhao looked a little weird when he saw this result. The top three teams have all been trained by him for a period of time, and he is quite proud of it...
Three days passed quietly.
In the early morning, five large gilt chairs were placed at the door of the Pope's Palace, shining brightly in the sunlight. In front of the seats was a wide square, where the fifth round of competition was held.
The participating members of the top three teams entered the venue one by one, waiting quietly for the door of the Pope's Palace to open. The much-anticipated His Holiness the Pope will appear today to watch the entire competition and crown the final winner.
"Where is Yuhao?"
Xiao Wu looked around curiously, and finally saw that figure. He was wearing a white team uniform, and the Spirit Hall members surrounding him were like stars holding the moon.
"That is Holy Maiden?"
Ning Rongrong followed Xiao Wu's line of sight and found that the girl with black hair was the one closest to Huo Yuhao.
The other party seemed to have noticed their gazes, and turned to look over, with inexplicable emotions flashing in their eyes.
"It should be her! How dare you steal my Yuhao!"
I saw Xiao Wu staring back at the opponent unceremoniously, his eyes full of fighting spirit, and he was making gestures to the opponent.
"Yuhao is mine!"
After saying that, he waved his fist towards the other party.
Hu Liena's eyes twitched when he saw this, and he turned his head silently. There was always a feeling that if he responded to the other party, his IQ would be lowered...
There are not many people in the temporary stands set up outside the square, including Xue Qinghe Tang Yuehua, and a number of college members except Spirit Hall are sitting in it.
"It should start soon..."
Poison Douluo, who was standing next to his granddaughter, murmured softly, then looked at Grandmaster, who was seated deliberately far away from him, and couldn't help but sneer.
Not long after he finished speaking, the palace door slowly opened. At this moment, Bibi Dong was wearing a golden dress, noble and elegant, and wearing Nine-Curved Purple Gold Crown on her head, and took the lead to walk out of the hall.
Following closely behind were three Titled Douluo, sword, chrysanthemum, and ghost in red robes, as well as Ning Fengzhi, an honorary elder.
After the five people were seated, the cardinal on the side took a step forward and said loudly.
"The morning will be a single-player competition. The winner will directly advance to tomorrow's team competition. The loser will compete for a spot in the resurrection competition in the afternoon. Now, each team member is asked to send the first participant to draw lots."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yuhao heard Dai Mubai's anxious voice, "Tang San! What are you doing!?"
Looking back subconsciously, I saw Tang San stepping out directly and arriving in front of Huo Yuhao. Tai Long, who was originally the first to appear, was a little overwhelmed by this scene.
"Huo Yuhao, I want to challenge you! In this first round of the arena, I will repay the humiliation you gave me and the teacher a hundredfold today!"
The loud voice resounded throughout the square. After seeing Hu Liena's Soul Emperor cultivation, Tang San knew that the previous plan would not work, so this one-on-one duel was his only chance.
In an instant, the whole place fell into silence. Bibi Dong, who was sitting in his seat, narrowed his eyes slightly, with surging murderous intent flashing in his eyes. Even Ning Fengzhi, who was sitting next to him, frowned slightly.
The members of the eliminated team in the spectator seats looked as though they didn't mind the matter, and turned their curious eyes to Huo Yuhao, which was what Tang San wanted to see.
Being provoked like this in front of everyone, Spirit Hall is inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people. If he refuses, I am afraid that Spirit Hall's face will be damaged as a result.
I saw Huo Yuhao reaching out to stop Hu Liena who was about to make a sarcastic comment. He looked at Tang San in front of him and let out a breath, his tone filled with Sisi annoyance.
"You obviously have no strength, but you always try to provoke me again and again. Don't you think you look like a fly?"
The merciless ridicule made Tang San's face suddenly darken, and veins popped up on his arms. Huo Yuhao ignored him and looked directly at Skywater Team. Shui Bing'er understood, and quickly raised a hand and said loudly.
"Skywater Academy voluntarily gave up this game and entered the loser group in the afternoon to compete for promotion spots."
The cardinal subconsciously looked at Bibi Dong, and saw the other party nodded slightly to him, then cleared his throat.
"Please Shrek Team and Spirit Hall Team, the first contestants, take their places in the center of the square!"
