The Tournament Begins!

The next morning, Xu Xingyu led the Spirit Contract Pagoda team to the venue of the Soul Master Tournament.

However, his appearance was met with jealousy and envy from all the men present.

There was no way around it; to his left was Gu Qiuxi, to his right was Wang Dong'er, and behind him was Xu Yanxue, who seemed completely indifferent but kept glancing at him, and Jiang Nannan was both helpless and jealous, wanted to join in.

Not only was he the only male in this group of top goddesses, but he also won the hearts of most of them.

A normal man seeing this would definitely want to join some FFF Brigade and burn the body of such a life winner.

Unfortunately, they were no match for Xu Xingyu; if they were to actually fight, they would most likely be the ones burned.

Moreover, to be honest Xu Xingyu completely ignored the gazes of these people who had nothing to do with his life, and instead chatted with his wives.

Seeing this bizarre scene, Ye Guyi, who was following behind the group, muttered to herself, "How can he maintain such harmony while juggling so many relationships? I really don't know what Dong'er and the others see in him?"

Tang Ya, standing beside her, stretched lazily and chimed in, "You, who don't have a boyfriend, wouldn't understand."

When you fall in love with someone but can't handle it alone, you'll have to compromise and share them with someone else, even if you don't want to.

"Besides, even if I were to share such a powerful man with others, at least I'd be well-fed and watered every day, and I wouldn't have to worry about being drained dry."

"Other women might want a boyfriend like that, but they might not be lucky enough to get him."

"What shameless things are you saying!" Ye Guyi retorted angrily, "Besides, if I don't have a boyfriend, do you?"

"Look," Tang Ya pointed to Bei Bei, the captain of the Shrek Team, and said, "That's my boyfriend."

As if in response to her statement, Bei Bei, who was in the distance, saw Tang Ya, who was pointing at her, and immediately smiled and waved to her.

Unaware of the situation, the infatuated female viewers all thought he was greeting them, and shouted things like "Handsome guy, I'll have your babies!" and "Handsome guy, give me your number!!!"

This left Ye Guyi somewhat devastated; so she was the only single woman there!

Why haven't I met any handsome guys I like?

Xu Xingyu felt he was alright, and he met her aesthetic and personality standards, but he had too many girls around, which she couldn't accept.

The only people she knew who met her standards were... For some reason, she suddenly thought of her teacher, Electrolux, working diligently.

But she quickly blushed and shook her head, not daring to think about it anymore; thinking about the teacher-student relationship any further would...

Moreover, Ye Guyi glanced at Zhang Lexuan, the team leader of the Shrek Team, and muttered, "The competition is a bit fierce."

The venue for this Soul Master Tournament is a new venue that the Sun Moon Empire specially built in recent years in their capital, Mingdu, for this competition.

The entire venue presented a grand and imposing style, with tall seating areas on the outside that could accommodate tens of thousands of spectators.

At the heart of the arena is a massive competition arena, constructed using state-of-the-art Soul Guidance Technology.

A powerful protective Soul Guidance Array was set up around the competition venue to ensure that the players' attacks would not affect the spectators.

In addition, dozens of high-tech Soul Tool floated in the air above the venue, capable of monitoring the situation on the competition field in real time and projecting it onto a huge holographic screen, allowing the audience to see every detail clearly.

The venue also features a dedicated rest area and medical area, equipped with comprehensive medical facilities and first-aid personnel to ensure that participants receive timely treatment and recovery after the competition.

As the representative of the organizer, Xu Tianran, the Crown Prince and Regent of the Sun Moon Empire, delivered a speech while Ju Zi pushed him in Ju Zi wheelchair.

"Welcome to this grand Soul Master Tournament, fellow participating Soul Master and Soul Engineer."

"In the upcoming matches, please unleash your full potential and fight with abandon, as long as it doesn't result in fatalities."

"At the same time, I would like to express my special thanks to all the sects and forces that were willing to participate, and thank you for your support of this competition."

I hope you all achieve excellent results and showcase your best!

After Xu Tianran finished his speech, the Soul Master Tournament officially began.

Unlike the Soul Master Tournament of the Star Luo Empire, this tournament only features one-on-one seven-person elimination matches and seven-on-seven team battles.

In one-on-one matches, each team sends one player onto the court, while the other six sit on the bench.

The winner earns one point for their team after defeating one person, while the loser is eliminated and their teammates take turns in a pre-arranged order to continue the one-on-one battle.

This Douluo I continued until one team conceded defeat or all seven players were exhausted, resulting in a loss for the team.

After the individual competition, there will be a short break, followed by a seven-on-seven team competition, with the winning team receiving five points.

The total score of a competition is the sum of the scores from the individual competition and the team competition.

Each team will have their points tallied after three matches, with the top eight teams advancing to the quarterfinals and the rest being eliminated.

The eight teams will compete in pairs, with the winners advancing to the semifinals. The two semifinal winners will then compete in the final to determine the ultimate champion.

According to the draw results for the first match of the Spirit Contract Pagoda, the Spirit Contract Pagoda will be playing against a sect called Heavenly Star Sect.

Xu Xingyu naturally did not intend to reveal her full strength in this match.

Therefore, in this match, the one-on-one seven-person gauntlet was arranged with two reserve players first, who were allowed to each win against two opponents before conceding defeat.

Then, Ye Guyi was sent in to finish off the remaining four opponents, thus achieving a deterrent effect.

Of course, if something unexpected happens to Ye Guyi, Gu Qiuxi will fill the vacancy.

This is a relatively conservative tactic.

It's not that they, the Spirit Contract Pagoda, can't simply use a powerful one-against-seven strategy to go all the way to victory.

After all, with their strength, they could continue fighting indefinitely using this method as long as they didn't encounter the Holy Spirit Cult, the main body of the sect, or Shrek.

But that would be unfair to the reserve team who came with them, so they were given some opportunities to perform.

A similar arrangement is used for other individual competitions where the final score is below the quarterfinals.

Meanwhile, two dark figures were observing the competition from directly above the venue.

One of the dark figures muttered, "It seems the competition has finally officially begun."

Another shadowy figure nearby replied, "Leave the rest to them."

"I believe they won't let us down."

"Yes, I believe in them. It's time for us to begin our operation. Let's go, it's time to get to our stage."

After saying this, the shadowy figure gave a deep look at one of the black-robed men beside Xu Tianran, then left the competition venue with another shadowy figure.
