The opening battle of the finals!
As Yu Tianshuang walked out of the Spirit Hall, he still couldn't figure out what he had said wrong that had caused the stunningly beautiful woman to lose her composure so completely. It was a far cry from the aura of someone accustomed to her high position; she was like a kitten whose wound had been exposed, her fur standing on end. Moreover, he could see a hint of unspeakable pain and despair on her furious face. What had this Pope gone through to cause such a casual remark to escalate to this?
Yu Tianshuang strolled alone on the streets of Spirit City, which was even more prosperous than Heaven Dou Imperial City. No matter which corner of the city you looked up from, you could see the huge Angel Statue in the center of the Spirit Hall.
A god-level Martial Soul, Six-Winged Angel, a level 99 Limit Douluo, Qian Daoliu.
Judging from the information conveyed by Pope Bibi Dong tonight, it can be predicted that if he wants to completely unravel the mystery of that year, he will inevitably have to deal with the Worship Hall of the Spirit Hall. Therefore, this man who currently stands at the pinnacle of the continent is the peak he must face.
However, I am still very weak right now. I can only gradually improve my strength, grow stronger, show my talent and value, and make use of myself and everything around me to figure this out.
The next morning, in the first round of the Continental Elite Tournament, the first team to appear was their Skywater Academy Team.
Inside the rest room of the Skywater Academy Team, Shui Xinrou was still somewhat worried. Looking at Yu Tianshuang, who seemed completely relaxed and nonchalant, as if he wasn't the one about to go on the field, she felt a little helpless.
She knew her disciple's true strength very well. If you disregard the three Auxiliary System Soul Master, Rongrong and the others, who had no combat ability, he was essentially going to fight against the seven opponents all by himself.
There were no tactical arrangements; after explaining the strength and Martial Soul information of the opposing Nightshade Team members, all we could do was wait for the match to begin.
Watching the four of them sipping tea, the three girls chatted about gossip completely unrelated to the competition, occasionally covering their mouths and giggling as they looked at Yu Tianshuang, there was absolutely no tense atmosphere.
"Ahem, we're about to go on stage. I want to emphasize this one last time: because we qualified as the second-place team in our region, even if we concede all our first-round matches, we can still advance to the finals as the eighth-place team. So, Tianshuang, if things aren't going well, don't force it. Rongrong, the same goes for you..."
Seeing the group chattering about food and clothes as they walked to the door, Shui Xinrou couldn't help but give them some instructions. However, before she could finish speaking, Ning Rongrong interrupted her.
"Oh dear, Dean Shui, you're a Titled Douluo- level expert yourself. This Nightshade Academy Team only has their captain, a Soul Ancestor. When they go on stage, I'll give Brother Tianshuang a huge boost, and he'll be able to sweep them aside. Don't worry, don't worry."
Seeing this, Shui Xinrou felt a little helpless. She knew they thought she was being long-winded, and she also knew that her worries were actually quite trivial. But she still couldn't help herself and could only say "Good luck" before falling silent.
"Alright, the first round of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament will be between the Nightshade Academy and Skywater Academy."
"The first team to appear, Nightshade Academy, has a captain who is a Soul Ancestor, and the other members are also very powerful Soul Elder."
"But the Skywater Academy Team is in a bad situation. According to intelligence, they qualified as the second-place team in the Heaven Dou Empire region, and all of their players in the preliminaries were Soul Ancestor. It seems that Nightshade Academy's starting lineup is at a disadvantage."
"Now let's take a look at the positioning of both sides. First, Nightshade Academy has adopted a very conservative positioning. You can tell from their expressions that they are all on high alert and ready to face this tough battle."
"And on the Skywater Academy Team... why are there only four members on the field? Where are the rest of the Skywater Academy Team? What about this...?"
The host, unaware of the situation, was at a loss for words when he saw that Skywater Academy only had four players on the field.
Meanwhile, Nightshade Academy, unaware of the situation, assumed the other side was underestimating them. They exchanged glances, their fighting spirit high.
"Haha, Boss Dai, it seems the people from the Star Luo Empire don't know yet that the so-called Skywater Team, composed entirely of Soul Ancestor, has been utterly destroyed by our Shrek Academy. They're lucky they didn't run into us again, otherwise, it would have been so satisfying to give those little wench a good beating."
Looking towards the Shrek Academy Team in the stands, Ma Hongjun, with a lewd grin on his face, couldn't help but say something to Dai Mubai beside him.
Seemingly sensing something, Yu Tianshuang, who was originally standing at the front of the line, turned her head and Lengleng glanced at Ma Hongjun was still lewdly grinning in the stands.
Even though they were so far apart, Ma Hongjun felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar the moment he was swept by that cold, emotionless gaze. A bead of cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and he fell silent.
"Then I declare the match open!"
After confirming with the competition committee, the host returned to the arena and announced the start of the competition.
The Nightshade Academy Team did not underestimate their opponents despite them having only four members; they maintained their formation and remained vigilant.
"The Nine Treasures Turn Into Glazed Glass; the Nine Treasures Have Names: First, Strength; Second, Speed; Third, Soul; Fourth, Defense."
After Ning Rongrong summoned her Martial Soul and buffed Yu Tianshuang, Yu Tianshuang felt a surge of power in her body and couldn't help but exclaim that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect truly lived up to its reputation as the number one Auxiliary System Martial Soul on the continent. Rongrong's evolved Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was even more exaggerated. After receiving the buff, Yu Tianshuang felt that her strength had increased by at least half.
Seeing that the opposing Nightshade Academy Team was still playing it safe as if facing a formidable enemy, Yu Tianshuang didn't waste any words and directly raised her left hand to the sky to summon her Martial Soul.
"Sit upright in the frosty sky!"
As the Frost Dragon descended from the sky and attached itself to Yu Tianshuang, a terrifying array of purple-black and black-red Soul Ring appeared around Yu Tianshuang. In particular, the deep red Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring caused everyone to gasp in surprise.
"A ten- Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring?"
Those with some knowledge gaped in disbelief, while most students were clueless about what the deep red Soul Ring represented, only feeling an incredibly terrifying sense of oppression.
"How did this arrogant brat manage to absorb Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring? I've tolerated Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, but this is getting more and more outrageous. However, I will not admit defeat. Yu Tianshuang, just wait for your defeat. I will repay the humiliation you brought me tenfold."
After hearing the explanations from the academy's elders and teachers, Huo Wu learned that this oppressive Soul Ring was actually 100,000 years old. She was a little disappointed, but quickly put the thought out of her mind.
