Snow Empress saw that he had stopped moving and said, "What's wrong? Why don't you take action?"
"You still have to practice, little guy, it's just Soul Sage, you haven't even forced out my Soul Skill!"
Long Aotian's face darkened, and he didn't know whether he should continue to take action.
Alas, Cruel Words Wound a Dragon's Heart!
Long Aotian took a deep breath, stood up straight, and put away Martial Soul.
The dark golden metallic luster faded away, the arms returned to their original shape, and the body shrank back to its normal size.
"I surrender."
"Snow Demon Sect Individual Competition, Team Competition all abstain!"
Sparse applause erupted from the audience, which soon turned into enthusiastic cheers.
"Long Aotian played well! If it had been anyone else, they would have been defeated!"
"Although I haven't met anyone, my courage is commendable!"
"Abyss Cult, this Martial Soul is too outrageous, isn't it? Can you fight, carry, talk, and have your own ideas?"
Zheng Zhan stepped forward and announced the results of the game.
"In the first game of individual Knockout Round, Abyss Cult Lu Yuan won and gained one point!"
"Snow Demon Sect surrenders, Abyss Cult wins!"
"The next game is Mingyu Sect versus Mingdu Soul Engineer Academy, please both sides be prepared!"
Snow Empress put away Ice Sword, walked off the competition stage, and followed Lu Yuan and the others out of the competition venue.
Long Aotian stood on the ring, looking at her back, a trace of unwillingness flashed in his eyes.
But he had no choice but to sigh and turn around and leave.
Calculating the time, Sect Leader and the others should be arriving soon. As Personal Disciple, he naturally has to go back and prepare.
Holy Spirit Cult Headquarters.
Zhongli Wu walked through the corridors and walked straight to Quiet Chamber, the deepest room in the palace.
Quiet Chamber's door is ajar, with dim light coming from inside.
Zhongli Wu stood at the door, took a deep breath, and shouted.
"Mother."
A female voice came out, with a bit of laziness in her tone.
"Come in."
Zhongli Wu Push the door and go in.
There is a woman sitting on the chair.
She looked to be about thirty years old, well-maintained, with a pretty face, and an indescribable charm in her eyes.
But deep in those eyes, there was a kind of indifference that could send chills down the spine.
Zhongli Wu stopped not far from her and bowed slightly.
"Mother, the child is back."
Ye Xishui raised his eyelids and glanced at him. While looking at his delicate fingers, he asked, "Mingdu, are you done with the matter over there?"
"Not yet."
Zhongli Wu sat down on the chair next to him and briefly reported what he had seen at Mingdu in the past few days.
From the progress of the competition, to the emergence of Abyss Cult, to the plan of Xu Tianran.
Ye Xishui was stunned when she heard Zhongli Wu talking about Lu Yuan Eight Red and One Gold's Soul Ring Configuration.
"Eight Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring and one Million-Year Soul Ring, are you sure?"
Zhongli Wu said in a deep voice, "My child has seen with his own eyes the pressure of that Golden Soul Ring. Even Uncle Long looked at it with suspicion."
Even though Ye Xishui has seen a lot of things in the world, it's still a bit unbelievable at this time.
She thought her Blood Soul Demon Puppet Three Red and Six Black was already amazing enough, but she didn't expect there was a master?!
"Go on."
Zhongli Wu then continued and told Xu Tianran's plan in detail.
Ye Xishui put his head on his hands and squinted his eyes, looking thoughtful.
Zhongli Wu knew she was thinking about something and didn't rush her.
After a while, Ye Xishui opened his eyes and spoke slowly.
"Abyss Cult's Secret Art is indeed worth thinking about."
"Eight Red and One Gold, seventeen or eighteen years old. I have lived for more than two hundred years, and I have never seen anyone who can stack Soul Ring to this level at this age. Holy Spirit Cult's Secret Art is already incredible enough, but compared with him, it is still a long way off."
Zhongli Wu nodded.
"My child thinks so too. If we can get Secret Art from Abyss Cult, our Holy Spirit Cult's strength can at least double."
Ye Xishui did not answer the call immediately, but asked another question.
"For those reports coming from the Douluo Continent about Yan Shaozhe and Xuan Zi, the source of the information was Abyss Cult?"
Zhongli Wu nodded and said, "Yes."
"The newspapers at that time clearly stated that the information was provided by Abyss Cult. Later, when Feng Ling contacted Lu Yuan, he also tested Abyss Cult's attitude, but Lu Yuan said nothing."
Ye Xishui squinted his eyes.
"I don't even know about Yan Shaozhe, how did he know about Lu Yuan?"
Zhongli Wu shook his head and said, "I checked the child, but couldn't find it out."
He actually has a great nephew? Then his search intensity must be even greater than Ye Xishui!
Dig it out and let him love and care for it, Jie Jie Jie...
It would be really interesting if Yan Shaozhe was really his great nephew!
"Interesting."
Ye Xishui sat up straight, stood up, stepped on the cold ground with bare feet, and walked to the window.
"Promise Xu Tianran, I'm also very curious about Lu Yuan. The Secret Art he has and where he knows the secrets are all worth digging out."
Ye Xishui waved his hand.
"Go on, go back and book Lu Yuan with Xu Tianran. I'll be there in two days."
"Yes, mother."
Zhongli Wu bowed and exited the room.
After the door was closed, Ye Xishui stood in front of the window, looking at the scenery outside, and suddenly laughed.
"Lu Yuan."
"Interesting little guy."
The day after tomorrow.
Here comes Group One, Group Two and Intra-Group Round-Robin Tournament.
Abyss Cult vs. Shrek Academy.
The audience is full of expectations for this showdown.
Abyss Cult and Shrek Academy, these two families can be said to be enemies that interfere with each other, and their grievances are getting deeper and deeper.
"How do you think Shrek will fight this time?"
"Just admit defeat. With all their strength there, what can they do to fight Abyss Cult?"
"It's so boring to admit defeat, I want to see rivers of blood flowing!"
"Yes! Rivers of blood! Rivers of blood!"
The voices in the stands rose and fell one after another, one wave after another.
Shrek Academy In the rest area.
Zhang Lexuan stood in front of the team, looking at the team members in front of him, anxious.
The viewers are right, Shrek Taxi prices are indeed extremely low right now.
Zhang Lexuan paced back and forth, frowning.
This is Second Competition, which she took over from Team. Last time, she was directly sentenced to lose. What should she do this time?
Of course she knew that with Shrek's current state, facing Abyss Cult would be a gift.
Individual Competition can't beat it, and Team Competition can't beat it even more.
Lu Yuan, Gu Qiu'er, Xiao Xiao, plus that strange Second Martial Soul, the strength of Abyss Cult is bottomless.
It's not like Shrek has never done this before strategically admitting defeat, but he only gave up after the fight started when he realized he couldn't beat him. After all, he fought a few rounds and was able to save face.
Isn't it okay to admit defeat before the fight is even started...
Zhang Lexuan sighed, she is in a dilemma now!
I want both face and dignity.
