The Spirit Hall also attaches great importance to this final. During the qualifying rounds, the Spirit Hall specially set aside a place as the venue for the final of this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
At the same time, the Spirit Hall also announced a decree that during the tournament, no one other than Soul Master is allowed to enter and watch the matches, not even nobles. This added an extra layer of mystery to the final competition.
While this would prevent ordinary people from watching the matches, it wouldn't lack an audience. After all, although the number of Soul Master is small, there are still over 100,000. Moreover, a match like this, which attracts attention across the entire continent, is one that every Soul Master wants to watch.
A group of over a thousand people set off in a grand procession. Although each academy operated independently, they all represented the Heaven Dou Empire, and for a moment, they felt a sense of shared hatred for a common enemy. Several academies that were on friendly terms even joined forces.
At the same time, the long journey also gave everyone ample time to gather intelligence, allowing them to learn about the Star Luo Empire's Soul Master teams and the Spirit Hall's teams.
Moreover, because the intelligence was hard to obtain and the time was relatively short, the various teams reached a consensus to exchange the intelligence they had obtained, thus summarizing all the intelligence into an intelligence chain and obtaining relatively detailed information.
So, on a giant, luxurious carriage, the Shrek and the Qilin Team gathered, and the Grandmaster shared the intelligence he had gathered over the past few days with everyone.
"The situation in this competition is still very serious. You all know which teams in the Heaven Dou Empire are strong and which are weak, but there are a few other teams that you need to pay special attention to."
"The first team, as you've probably guessed, is the Spirit Hall team. Without a doubt, they are the favorites to win this tournament. They have three Soul King above level 50, and the lowest-ranking member has Soul Power of at least level 45."
Although everyone already had some understanding of this team, they still fell silent upon hearing their names. While everyone was skilled in their own right, the difference in their Soul Power was insurmountable.
"This is really difficult. If they also possess a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, I'm afraid I'll be in a very passive position," Qi Ling said.
The Martial Soul Fusion Skill of two Soul King must be incredibly powerful, perhaps even surpassing the combined skill of the Skywater Academy! If Qi Ling were to fight alone, her chances of winning would indeed be slim.
Even though he was known as the invincible war god, a one-man army, Qi Ling knew in his heart that individual strength has its limits, and when faced with difficulties that you cannot overcome, asking for help from your companions is always the best choice.
The Grandmaster also analyzed, "They probably do have Martial Soul Fusion Skill, because according to intelligence, two of their three Soul King are siblings, and their Martial Soul attributes are extremely compatible, so it's not surprising that they possess Martial Soul Fusion Skill."
Ma Hongjun scratched his head and said, "My God, how are we supposed to fight like this? Three Soul King, plus Martial Soul Fusion Skill, there's absolutely no chance of winning!"
Qi Ling kicked him away and said, "Go away! Don't boost others' morale and diminish your own. No matter how strong the enemy is, there's always a way to deal with them. If you're scared before you even fight, who can you possibly beat?"
Ma Hongjun, rubbing his backside, said, "Yes, I understand, Boss Qi."
"I'll speak to the Qilin Team members separately when we get back, but Shrek Academy members, remember this: if one person can't defeat an enemy, then two people should defeat it! If two people can't defeat someone, then a team should defeat them!" Qi Ling said.
"Each of you has your own strengths. Only by complementing each other and cooperating can you unleash your full potential. As for how to do it, Xiao San will teach you, understand?"
The Shrek members all nodded, Dugu Yan to the side, had stars in her eyes, muttering to herself, "This is the man I want to be! So handsome!"
Seeing the Shrek Academy students regain their spirits under Qi Ling's encouragement, Grandmaster couldn't help but nod. Qi Ling was simply too perfect; she was a born leader!
However, despite this, the Grandmaster still had to pour cold water on everyone's enthusiasm, because in this competition, there were more than just the Spirit Hall team to watch out for.
"While the Spirit Hall's teams are formidable, the Star Luo Empire also has several teams you should be wary of!" Grandmaster continued. "First and foremost is the Star Luo Empire's seeded team, led by their prince. They rank third in strength among all the Star Luo Empire's teams and will be a formidable opponent for you."
"Huh? What? The Star Luo Empire's seed team is only the third strongest? Is there another team stronger than them?" Dai Mubai exclaimed in surprise, drawing everyone's attention.
The Grandmaster nodded and said, "That's right. Whether judging from their paper strength or the strength they've demonstrated, two teams undoubtedly deserve to be in first and second place."
"The first team is called the Overlord Team. They are a formidable team composed of three Power Attack System, two Defense System, and two Support System, and they excel at direct, aggressive attacks."
"One of the things we need to pay special attention to is their team member, Kuang Tie, who is a level 54 Soul King. At the same time, his Martial Soul is very special and extremely difficult to deal with. It is precisely because of Kuang Tie's existence that the Overlord Team has been able to be so invincible and unstoppable."
Upon hearing this, everyone realized that another Soul King of level 54 had appeared, and they understood the truth of Qi Ling's earlier statement that they were not the only geniuses in the world.
"If this team is so strong, wouldn't the other teams be completely helpless?" Tang San said at this moment. "They should be the strongest team in the Star Luo Empire, right?"
The Grandmaster shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, no. The Overlord Team is indeed very strong, but they still lost a match. And the team they lost to was the strongest team from the Star Luo Empire this time."
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped in astonishment. There was actually a team stronger than this one? Just how strong could they be?
"Haha, Grandmaster, you're not saying that the strongest team has two Soul King, are you?" Ma Hongjun laughed nervously. "Impossible, right? These teams can't all be that outrageous, can they?"
The Grandmaster shook his head, and just as Ma Hongjun breathed a sigh of relief, the Grandmaster continued, "They do indeed only have one Soul King, but their captain, according to the information, is a Soul Emperor of at least level 60!"
