107 Preliminary Round BeginsHalf a month later.
The capital of the Tiandou Empire, Tiandou City.
Fireworks exploded one after another in the sky, and it was still extremely bright even in the daytime.
Tiandou City, which was already bustling in the past, became extremely crowded today. A large number of nobles, soul masters and even civilians came from all over the Tiandou Empire.
The opening day of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition is such a grand event that naturally cannot be missed.
This also led to a sharp increase in the city's population. All the hotels in the city were full, and the nearby streets were filled with all kinds of people.
A number of merchants made a lot of money and were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.
In order to maintain order and prevent serious incidents from occurring due to too many people, the Tiandou Empire even mobilized thousands of city defense troops to patrol.
The opening ceremony of the elite competition is about to begin. Both the opening ceremony and the preliminaries will be held in the Tiandou City Fighting Spirit Arena.
The large fighting spirit arena, which was renovated a long time ago, can now accommodate more spectators.
Finally the opening day arrived.
Before daybreak, the Tiandou City Soul Fighting Arena was already packed with people. The spacious streets were almost completely blocked off. Especially near the entrance, both sides were lined with civilians stopping to watch.
Every time they encounter a team that excels, the audience around them will scream with excitement.
After all, there are not many opportunities to meet so many geniuses in the past.
"Look, that's the Thunder Academy. The leader should be Yu Tianxin from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, right?"
"It seems that the people following behind are from the Kamikaze Academy. I heard that the captain of their team has a mutant martial spirit, and it is also innate full spirit power."
Two popular colleges appeared at once, and the audience's emotions were instantly ignited.
Everyone was cheering for the Advanced Soul Master Academy that they favored, especially the young ladies and ladies, who were frantically shouting the names of the male soul masters.
After all, for them, marrying a powerful soul master would be the best thing ever. Commoners could cross classes, and noble ladies could help recruit talents for the family.
Of course, not every high-level soul master academy is popular.
"Pfft, no, what kind of academy is this? Did they just crawl out of the toilet? They are so ridiculous dressed like this!"
"I guess they're just going through the motions, but the patterns on their chests are pretty unique."
"They're actually hiring for advertising. Are they crazy because they're broke? Can an academy like this participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition? It really lowers the standard of the elite competition!"
On the street, a group of young students dressed in strange clothes were walking slowly. Facing the strange looks from the people around them, all of them lowered their heads, wishing they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
It's really shameful!
That color, between yellow and green, can almost be described as shit green. It's so ugly that it's hard to imagine what kind of person has such an outrageous taste.
Not only that, there is also a large emerald green pattern on the front of the clothes, which looks particularly strange.
Coupled with the sign "Wanting Sponsor Advertisements" on the back, it is absolutely unique among all colleges and can only be described as weird.
"Let me die!"
In the team, a fat red-haired boy had red cheeks and felt extremely ashamed.
Especially the undisguised sarcasm in their ears made everyone feel humiliated and they really wanted to turn around and leave.
"Just bear with it, it will be fine soon!"
Under tremendous pressure, Shrek Academy quickly entered the Great Fighting Spirit Arena.
"Look, it's Tianshui College!"
Someone shouted, which immediately attracted the attention of countless spectators. Most of the men immediately became agitated and stood on tiptoe to look towards the entrance.
One after another beautiful figures quietly emerged.
"Wow, there are so many beauties, it really deserves to be Tianshui College!"
"So beautiful! If I could find a beauty like this to be my wife, I would save ten years of my life!"
"Tsk, you are so petty, I will just live 20 years less!"
"I'm going to die!"
"Awesome."
"…"
The cheers caused by the appearance of Tianshui College were obviously louder than those of all the previous colleges.
"It's too lively!" Shuiyueer looked around and listened to the dizzying noise. The girl was not stage-frightened, but rather excited.
A group of girls in blue school uniforms nodded slightly, each with a different expression.
After all, people as carefree as Shuiyue'er are a minority, so a few people still felt a little nervous.
"Don't look at it, go in first!"
Shui Bing'er, who was still the captain, frowned slightly, as if she heard some dirty words and was very unhappy. However, she still forced herself not to lose her temper and urged everyone in a cold voice.
Finally, all the participating teams have entered the venue.
Tiandou Royal Academy Team 2, Xiangjia Academy, Thunder Academy, Shenfeng Academy, Blazing Academy, Tianshui Academy, Botanical Academy, Shrek Academy...
Soon, a host came to the stage.
The audience outside the venue stopped talking tacitly.
"Welcome everyone to the Tiandou City Great Fighting Spirit Arena. Now let us invite His Majesty the Emperor of the Tiandou Empire to announce the opening of this competition!"
As the host's voice fell, there was a burst of applause from below.
Sitting in the center of the first row of the VIP seats, Emperor Xue Ye, wearing a scarlet-gold robe, slowly stood up, with a amiable smile on his face, and waved to the crowd below.
The applause quickly stopped, and the huge fighting arena became silent again.
The next moment, Emperor Xue Ye's deep voice spread throughout the venue through the soul guide, "I am very pleased to see so many energetic juniors again. I hope that all soul masters in this competition can give full play to their full strength and achieve ideal results."
"You are all the pride of the Tiandou Empire. Show yourselves to the fullest for the glory of the empire!"
"I, Emperor Xue Ye of the Tiandou Empire, on behalf of the Tiandou Empire and the organizers of the competition, officially announce that the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition is now open!"
Accompanied by thunderous applause, Emperor Xue Ye returned to his seat.
After several sect representatives gave brief speeches, the long and boring ceremony finally came to an end. There were a total of 28 teams in the preliminaries, and their opponents were decided by drawing lots.
In the first round of the preliminaries, Canghui College played against Zixing College, and Auckland College played against Huoyanguanghui College...
As for Tianshui College's opponent, it is a not-so-famous senior college.
"The opponent for the first round has been decided. Our match should be the day after tomorrow. Sisters, be prepared. Don't ask Brother Chuan to save the day. That would be embarrassing!"
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Shui Bing'er spoke in a cold voice and took the initiative to start the pre-war mobilization.
The girls nodded seriously, "Don't worry, Sister Bing'er, at least before the finals, we will never let Brother Chuan play!"
Now that their strength has greatly increased, they are full of confidence.
"Well, it's best for everyone to stay together these few days. When there are no games, watch more games from other academies. After all, they may be our opponents in the future!"
Shui Bing'er arranged the next plan with strict logic.
Shui Lanxin and Leng Man stood beside the team, watching the girls' interaction with a smile. They did not interrupt, but let them make their own decisions.
Anyway, with Lin Chuan here, it is almost impossible to lose the game.
Then let's use this elite competition to hone these kids!
Meanwhile, in the stands.
"Huh?!" Ning Fengzhi, who was sitting next to Emperor Xue Ye, looked at Tianshui College, but did not find Lin Chuan. Instead, he noticed Ye Lingling, and he immediately frowned.
'How did the Ye family of Jiuxin Haitang get involved with Tianshui College?'
This is a troublesome matter.
Although Ning Fengzhi thought highly of the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial soul, he was also very wary of it threatening the status of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Even though there were only two soul masters who possessed the Nine-Hearted Begonia, he still suppressed them.
But now, the Ye family has joined Tianshui College quietly.
This couldn't help but give Ning Fengzhi a headache.
The reason why they didn't kill them all before was not only because the Ye family had many friends, but also because they had a friendship with Dugu Bo. If they were really ruthless, they would probably get into trouble with that old poisonous guy.
Although the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect possesses two Titled Douluo and is naturally not afraid of a one-on-one fight, Dugu Bo's poison is quite tricky.
Unless we are sure to kill him on the spot, the consequence is that
there will only be two Title Douluo left in the sect, and no one else! 'Forget it, ignore it for now. Even if the Ye family is really going after Lin Chuan, after all, their martial spirits limit them to only two Nine-Hearted Begonia Spirit Masters, and they will never be able to achieve anything, unless...'
Ning Fengzhi laughed in silence and shook his head slightly.
Unless the defects of the martial soul are made up for, or the martial soul evolves.
But no matter which one it is, it is extremely difficult, and he doesn't think the Ye family can be so lucky.
…
Time passes quietly and the elite competition is in full swing.
There are a total of twenty-eight participating teams in the Tiandou City division. Each team has to compete in a team battle with the other twenty-seven teams. Almost all teams have to defeat most of the participating teams in order to advance to the next round.
The only good news is that there are five qualifying spots for the Tiandou Empire region.
In other words, as long as the results are ranked in the top five, they can enter the promotion games and the finals. Compared with other divisions of the Tiandou Empire, the competition is much smaller.
With the strength of Tianshui College, it was naturally extremely easy, and it could even be said to be an easy task.
Even before Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan appeared on the stage, Tianshui College's original lineup alone was enough to defeat all its opponents.
With all members at level 40, Tianshui College also shines in this elite competition.
Originally, because all the team members were beautiful women, Tianshui College had already attracted a lot of attention. Now that it has demonstrated such terrifying strength, it has become the focus of the Tiandou City division for a while.
"This year's Tianshui College team is very strong!"
Even Emperor Xue Ye couldn't help but nod in praise, with deep surprise in his eyes.
Xue Qinghe, who was watching the game with him, stood aside and chuckled, "Father, this is not the full strength of Tianshui College. As far as I know, there is a male student in the Tianshui College team this year, and he has already registered as a participant."
"Oh? Doesn't Tianshui College only recruit female students?"
Emperor Xue Ye was also quite surprised to hear this.
"I have met that male student before. He is indeed a rare talent. I think he must have extraordinary talent, so Tianshui Academy made an exception!"
Emperor Xue Ye nodded, understanding.
Rules are dead, people are alive, and there is nothing that cannot be changed.
"Qinghe, Tianshui College is pretty good this year. Get in touch with them more. It would be even better if we could recruit them all to work in the empire."
Xue Qinghe nodded slightly, "Yes, Father, I will establish a good relationship with Tianshui College."
