After the Team Competition, the next thing to do is the Individual Competition.

Starting with the top 128.

The competition schedule was changed to once a day.

The Team Competition round of 64 is completed in one day, the Individual Competition of 64 is completed in another day, the Team Competition Individual Competition of 32 is completed in yet another day, and so on, until the champions of the Individual Competition and Team Competition are determined.

Therefore, the later the competition progresses, the more intense the battles become. However, the rest time that the participants have also increases, which can be considered a balance to some extent. This is also the first time that Shrek Academy has held a competition of this level. All participants are welcome, and there are a large number of people. Many aspects are being improved gradually as the event is being held.

Plans can't keep up with changes.

This is a very normal phenomenon.

That's why.

After playing against the Blue Tyrant Academy's second team.

Ye Qingcang successfully entered his rest period.

He was left with an entire afternoon.

Perhaps we should add an evening as well.

In the evening, from dinner to bedtime, there are four or five hours in between when he needs to handle some matters. Although he has entrusted the affairs of the Blue Tyrant Academy to Violet, the affairs of the Sky Merchant Guild to Jiang Nannan, and the overall situation of the Sun Moon Empire to Ju Zi Judgment, in addition, Ye Lingling and Bai Chenxiang are assisting Violet with her work, and Xiao Xiao is helping Jiang Nannan with various budgets, Violet and the others are not particularly busy. However, given that the total number of tasks is known, having one more person naturally adds to the effort, unless the person helping only makes things worse.

Ultimately, they are all people connected to him.

One is Goddess of Life created by one's own hands.

One is his girlfriend.

There is also a close female friend with whom I can be described as a confidante who is more than friends but less than lovers.

They were so busy over there that they were dizzy and overwhelmed.

He was chatting and drinking tea here.

Isn't that extremely impolite?

To be honest, even he himself felt that it was a bit unreasonable.

In addition, he really likes the sunset in the evening.

Of course, there's also the sunset and the starry sky.

So, after thinking for a moment, Ye Qingcang decided to move his evening work to the afternoon, thus freeing up his evening time to enjoy the pleasant night view.

However, those things happened a few hours later.

The priority right now is work.

"It's less like work and more like sitting here giving orders."

"Let's confirm if there are any deviations in the overall direction."

"If so, revise them promptly."

"If not, review it again."

"Maybe we can find some problems."

"There is also some important intelligence that we collect, which we review and understand on a daily basis."

Ultimately, the actual implementation depends on the specific personnel responsible for carrying it out.

"A person's abilities are ultimately limited."

Behind a very ordinary desk, Ye Qingcang sat in a chair, one hand clenched into a fist, his chin resting on his hand, head tilted to the side, looking at the documents in the folder in his hand. Every now and then, he would pick up a pen and make a checkmark on the document. After seven or eight minutes, he finally put down the document that had been flipped to the end, looked at Violet across the desk, who was also reviewing documents with a pen, coughed, pulled himself out of his idle thoughts, and inquired, "Still no news from Yue Ye?"

"It seems not."

Violet frowned and thought for a moment.

She's been reviewing a lot of documents lately.

Even if she had a photographic memory, she would still need to think things through before speaking.

Otherwise, she might say no one, but then suddenly remember. Even if she and Ye Qingcang had no romantic relationship, Ye Qingcang would never blame her. However, she, who always held herself to high standards, could not accept such negligence. Moreover, all the matters concerning Yue Ye were extremely important, and any slight oversight could cause the plan to scheme against the three Divine Realm to fail.

We cannot be careless.

But then again...

Yue Ye hasn't replied for several days.

To date, no list of requirements has been provided.

Now, reminded by Ye Qingcang, Violet also became worried, sighing, "To be honest, Yue Ye's task is too heavy. Her position in the whole plan... perhaps it should be said that the task she is in charge of this stage should be completed by us. Moreover, even our Blue Tyrant Academy cannot guarantee that we can continue under the pressure of the gods. It is said that people strive for higher positions and water flows downhill. Even those students on the Heaven Ranking may not be able to resist the temptations offered by the Gods... Immortality and the like are enough to make them betray Blue Tyrant Academy... Yue Ye deliberately puts herself in the spotlight, attracting attention as an open weakness that can be exploited, followed, and used to attack us. The cards she holds may not be able to withstand the repeated attacks in the future. Moreover, the Demon Race are also hard to predict..."

It is true that Yue Ye is the daughter of the Moon Demon God.

But Demon Race don't cling to kinship.

Let's put it this way: If someone guarantees to Demon God Emperor Feng Xiu that killing A Bao and Leng Xiao will bring Austin Griffin before him, Feng Xiu will not hesitate to kill his son and daughter. Even if A Bao and Leng Xiao were replaced by his daughter Bai Yue, he would still kill her without hesitation, because every Demon God has the same mission. Their ancestors have sacrificed their Goddess of Life for this mission, so they will do the same.

Therefore, the Demon Race cannot be trusted.

If God King Tang San said, or if the Gods of the Divine Realm in Dou Three said, that they would give up Yue Ye, a weakness within Ye Qingcang's camp, in exchange for better living conditions for the Human Race and Demon Race on the Saint Demon Continent, and that they would pay first and then demand Yue Ye's weakness in return, then for the sake of the Demon Race, Yue Ye would have to be sacrificed.

Even the Moon Demon God can be sacrificed.

Therefore, after much consideration, Ye Qingcang initially regarded Blue Tyrant Academy as the core point, the eye of the storm that was about to break, the most intense yet calmest core.

But unexpectedly, Yue Ye Mao Sui.

They actively wanted to be this bridgehead.

I'm going to be this nail.

Position yourself in the most conspicuous spot to draw fire.

"Then let her be."

"At worst, we'll lose... We'll cut our losses and go into seclusion with her. We'll come out of seclusion in ten years and then go on a rampage, mowing down enemies in one fell swoop."

Ultimately, strength is everything.

"Strategies are merely methods used to turn defeat into victory or break the deadlock when one's own side is weak or evenly matched; it doesn't matter if one loses."

These are Ye Qingcang's exact words when he chatted with Violet three or four months ago.

The subtext is: I'm mentally prepared for everything to go in the worst possible way; it's just a matter of starting all over again.

But now...

There are about two weeks left.

Yue Ye still doesn't need any support.

It's fair to say that Violet's concerns are understandable.

"Alright, let's put Yue Ye aside for now and talk about the others."

"What about the expenses of others?"

"I can only see the overall data here."

"You should have detailed instructions there, right?"

Ye Qingcang put down the folder, tucked away one of his fists that was supporting his cheek, sat up straight, and casually straightened the wrinkles in his shirt that had appeared from sitting down casually earlier, thus bringing up the relevant topic.

Violet nodded as expected.

There is no need to search for or view that document.

Her photographic memory allowed her to speak fluently, even arranging the items in order of rank before uttering a word: "Nine-level Soul Guidance Cannon: Ning Fengzhi borrowed thirteen, Yu Yuanzhen borrowed seven, Zhu Zhuyun borrowed two, and Qian Renxue borrowed one hundred and six. There were a total of eleven Level 9 Soul Tool Bomb. Except for the two Ning Fengzhi took, the rest were all taken by Qian Renxue. As for Alchemy Creation, none of the forbidden items have been touched. A total of three thousand one hundred and seventy-seven other Alchemy Creation were transferred, including seventeen Ninth Order Alchemy Creation." "Two hundred and forty Eighth Order Alchemy Creation, six hundred and thirty-five Seventh Order Alchemy Creation, and a number of others. Among the forbidden types in the Hunting Organization, namely the Gold Shadow Great General, Sister Ju Zi transferred one. The remaining Hunting Organizations transferred a total of twenty-five thousand three hundred. Qian Renxue transferred an exact number of twenty thousand, Sister Nan Nan took three thousand, Chen Xiang and Lingling took one thousand one hundred and two thousand two hundred respectively. A total of seven thousand six hundred and thirty-six Faceless Men have come out of hiding. There are over one hundred and thirty-three thousand existing Sleepless Men, and over two hundred and fifty-eight thousand Faceless Men on vacation in the Mother Nest..."

A level 9 Soul Guidance Cannon and Level 9 Soul Tool Bomb are not the same thing.

A level nine Soul Guidance Cannon means a weapon that can be used by a titled Douluo of Level 90 or above without exploding. A Level 9 Soul Tool Bomb means a weapon that can cause fatal damage to a titled Douluo of level Level 90 or above. Moreover, it can only be used once.

To put it simply, the quality of Soul Guidance Cannon is related to its durability and output.

The maximum level for an eighth-level Soul Guidance Cannon is eighty-nine.

If you inject level 89 Soul Power into it.

It can naturally unleash a burst of pure Soul Power light, compressed to its limit, comparable to the full-force attack of an 89th-level Soul Douluo.

This is used to inflict damage on the enemy.

But if you inject Level 90 Soul Power into it.

There is a 99% probability that the barrel will explode.

There's a one percent chance it will be scrapped.

There is no probability of it emitting Soul Power light waves.

Therefore, in order to enable Soul Tool Master with higher Soul Power Level to have weapons, the Level 9 Soul Guidance Cannon was developed for the above reasons, ensuring that it would not explode in higher-level battles.

However, the Sun Moon Empire has been researching Soul Tool for thousands of years, and its rating standards for Soul Tool are naturally very refined. In the Sun Moon Empire, there's also the concept of a limiter. Simply put, removing the limiter allows an eighth-level Soul Guidance Cannon with the relevant configuration to withstand an injection of Soul Power above Level 90 for a short period without breaking down, and even continue outputting. The price is that after a few attacks, the Rank Eight Soul Tool will break down. It's like installing a plug-in on the eighth-level Soul Guidance Cannon, further enhancing its original quality. Unfortunately, this unstable Soul Tool is ultimately only rated at the lower limit, defined as level eight. This is the Sun Moon Empire's standard for judging Soul Tool. But the Douluo Continent is different. The Douluo Continent uses the upper limit. Soul Guidance Cannon like the one mentioned above would be considered a level nine Soul Guidance Cannon in the Douluo Continent because its destructive power meets the standards of a level nine Soul Guidance Cannon. Therefore, the specific level of a Soul Tool depends on which side it's rated on, as the two sides have different evaluation standards.

Ye Qingcang is definitely calculating based on the Sun Moon Empire's side.

The level-nine Soul Guidance Cannon he mentioned were all top-quality ones that could be wielded by a titled Douluo and fired at for a whole day and night without overloading and exploding.

Although the duration of a Title Douluo's attack should not be that long, unless the Title Douluo conserves his Soul Power, even if he conserves his Soul Power, a single attack will not test his endurance limit.

The power of Level 9 Soul Tool Bomb is independent of the user. As long as you have Soul Power in your Soul Power, or even if you don't, as long as you have the corresponding launching device, such as a professional cannon barrel, even an ordinary person can launch this Soul Guidance Cannon Shell.

Unfortunately, the Level 9 Soul Tool Bomb are too large targets.

He reached the level of Title Douluo.

Intuitive warnings are not just empty words.

Therefore, in battles between Rank 9 Soul Tool Master or titled Douluo, Level 9 Soul Tool Bomb are rarely seen. And once they appear, it basically means that the side that activates them wants to drag the opponent down to hell and wants to play a game of self-destruction.

As for the hunting agency that Violet mentioned.

It is actually a product of the biased development of the Blue Tyrant Academy's patrol agency.

Develop in the direction of life.

It's a home robot.

The kind of person who used to serve Ye Qingcang juice and get recipes at the Blue Tyrant Academy.

Cleaning and such.

Cooking, laundry, and so on.

These are its strengths.

Its destructive power depends entirely on its own material.

It's made of alloy, after all.

Defeating a Soul Master of level 30 or 40 is no problem.

Any higher and we won't be able to handle it.

The area that Ye Qingcang has been developing in terms of lethality is the Hunting Agency, which is currently the highest quality among them. It has the ability to rival a normal Title Douluo. Most importantly, when Ye Qingcang created the Gold Shadow Great General Gold Shadow Great General, he used a fluid memory metal material called Mother Gold Blood Core. Therefore, the Gold Shadow Great General not only has a powerful physical repair ability and no fatal weaknesses, but also has the ability to manipulate the surrounding metal. It can be said to be the domain of Soul Tool Master. No metal can resist its control. As for those with a mental imprint, they are an exception.

The Faceless Men, needless to say.

"Unfortunately, these things are ultimately no match for Deity with higher Goddess of Life forms..." Ye Qingcang sighed. Ultimately, it was because he was too weak. If he were a Level 90 Title Douluo, someone who had undergone nine martial arts advancements, he could easily rip off the Dragon God's head and use it as a football. "However, it's barely enough to deal with those large-scale bursts of God Trial Taker... Well, after compiling so many statistics, it's time to rest and eat. I wonder who your opponent will be tomorrow. Tomorrow is the Individual Competition, the round of 64 to 32, right? If I remember correctly?"

"Yes." Violet smiled slightly, uttering a boastful yet undeniably true statement. "But as long as I don't encounter you, Master, nothing else matters. I'm confident I can win!"
