Chapter 500: Source Soul Guidance Battery? (1)

Ning Tian frowned and said, "Isn't it too dangerous for the people competing this time?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and shook his head and said: "That's not true. This competition is just for making money, and it has no importance to the Holy Spirit Cult at all. What Xu Tianran and the Holy Spirit Cult focus on is the Continental Young Senior Soul Master Elite Competition. Didn’t you see that they sent people to participate?”

"Since the energy is not on the side of the Xishui League, naturally there will not be too much attention. And after all, the Xishui League is just a branch of the Holy Spirit Cult. It is used to make money and hide one's identity. The Holy Spirit Cult cannot send high-level guards to guard that Qingse Hotel. The status in the Xishui Alliance should be high, and the person in charge of management is only a soul king, not an evil soul master."

"The real idea of ​​Xu Tianran and the Holy Spirit Sect is to win over all participating sects and colleges. It is even possible."

"No matter what, I will not let them succeed. This morning, an informant in the army sent a message that the Sun and Moon Empire is gathering an army to prepare to attack the Mingdou Mountains."

"But I don't want Xu Tianran to have so much fun. Raising troops for a thousand days and using them for a while. Xu, this kid, and those bastards from the Tan family have been hiding in the north for more than three years. I have also arranged for all the latest research from Mingdetang. Give it all to them.”

"If they can't make any achievements and can compete head-on with Xu Tianran, then Xu He will no longer be worthy of the royal blood of the Sun and Moon Empire."

Listening to Huo Yuhao's detailed analysis, Ning Tian's face became a little relieved. He nodded and said, "Then we still need to participate in the next competition?"

Huo Yuhao said with a smile: "Of course, all the rare metals used to make your battle armors will come from this competition. I like using the resources of the Holy Spirit Cult to make my things."

"By the way, you go tell Aotian that we will abstain from the next game and admit defeat. Xu Tianran has begun to doubt my identity and wants to let the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy test us, just to trick him."

"Okay." Ning Tian nodded.

"What? The Noumenon Sect gave up the competition with us?" Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen were shocked when they heard the news.

Xiao Hongchen murmured: "Does this mean that we defeated the strongest team in this competition? We and they should be the strongest teams in this competition!"

Meng Hongchen curled his lips and said, "Brother, please stop lying to yourself, okay? We haven't really fought, so you have the nerve to say that we won? Are you blushing or not? But isn't it a good thing for us that they gave up this time? If we really have to fight against the Noumenon Sect, we will never feel uncomfortable. The following knockout matches are very closely connected, which will have a great impact on our final victory."

Xiao Hongchen smiled bitterly and said, "Can you let me feel better first? Winning the championship? Now you are still thinking about winning the championship? It's not like you don't know that that person may be back."

At this point, he paused for a moment, but his eyes were full of anger. It was obvious that he was still a little angry towards Huo Yuhao.

Meng Hongchen smiled and said: "We are all members of the same family, there is no need to sacrifice each other's strength. The Noumenon Sect also gave us a favor this time. As for Huo Yuhao"

"If he comes back, he should be able to sweep all the colleges and sects, right?"

"Tch, you still can't forget that scumbag!" Xiao Hongchen said dissatisfied.

Meng Hongchen blushed and said in embarrassment: "I just like him, what's wrong? Compared with him, all men are scum!"

Xiao Hongchen rubbed his nose with a speechless expression and said, "Your attack is too broad. I'll tell grandpa to go."

Meng Hongchen snorted and said: "At most, I can add the word "peer of the same age". Anyway, in my eyes, you are far inferior to him."

Xiao Hongchen said sadly and angrily: "It's true that women are not allowed to stay in college! After all, I am also your brother, so you are talking about me like this!"

"But there's nothing wrong with what you said."

The third round of the knockout round of the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition was tragic, which exceeded many people's expectations.

In order to occupy a place in the round robin, many games were played red-eye. After one round, five people were killed and more than twenty people were seriously injured. On average, there were casualties in every battle.

For this reason, many teams also protested to the competition organizing committee, strongly questioning the referee's ability to control the game.

The Sun Moon Empire officials were also troubled by this, so they had no choice but to issue an announcement, promising that in the following games, the referee would control the pace of the game as much as possible to reduce casualties.

Although the Noumenon Sect admitted defeat in this round, it relied on Huo Yuhao's feat of piercing seven in the first round, and the foundation laid by Wu Feng in the second round. With the advantage of small points, he successfully qualified, but his ranking was relatively low.

After the third round, a day's rest is required before the round-robin draw ceremony is held. And this day is also the day when the Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition in the underground world officially begins.

When Huo Yuhao and Ning Tian came to Qingse Hotel again, Chen An was already waiting at the door to greet them personally. With the accurate time this time, Huo Yuhao and the others would naturally not be late.

"You're here." When Chen An saw Huo Yuhao, he hurriedly took a few steps forward and saluted him respectfully.

"Yes." Huo Yuhao smiled and nodded. "Are you ready for what I asked you to do?"

Chen An hurriedly said: "Don't worry, everything is ready. And I haven't disclosed your participation in the competition to anyone. You can follow me to the VIP room to rest first, and I will show you the compiled information."

"Very good, lead the way." Huo Yuhao said.

Chen An took them to a large lounge next to the golden hall on the underground floor and asked his men to serve various fruits and drinks, while he took out a document and handed it to Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao took the document and looked at it for a few times and said: "Explain it." "Yes." Chen An said respectfully: "Our competition is mainly held to take advantage of the huge flow of people in Mingdu so that ordinary people can participate in it." be able to participate. Therefore, we have already opened the betting from the beginning of the qualifying round. The betting method for this round is the same as that of the qualifying round. Because there are so many soul masters participating, there are a total of more than one hundred and ten qualified, so it is too much for an individual to bet. Sorry, let’s proceed with the remaining number of people.”

“You can bet on odd and even numbers, and you can bet on multiples. The smaller the multiple, the lower the odds, and the larger the multiple, the higher the odds. For example, if you bet that the number of people who will qualify in this round is a multiple of two, you can only get one reward. The odds are 1.3, if you bet directly on the number of finalists, you will get the same multiplier reward as that number of people.”

As he spoke, he took out a black gold card and handed it to Huo Yuhao: "This is the money you placed last time. We will pay you three times the amount. Don't worry, only I know everything about you. Absolutely." There is no report to the superiors. But I must remind you that in the first two rounds of the competition, I was the chief referee. But starting from the third round, there will be big shots from above who will personally preside over it. If you want to hide your identity, It’s better to pay a little more attention.”

"I didn't plan to hide my identity for a long time." Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Tell me about the prizes."

"Yes. After passing the qualifying round, our prize is five thousand gold soul coins per person, which has been entered into your card. The winner of today's round of competition will be able to choose from the twenty-eight rare species we have listed. Choose any one of the metals and take away one kilogram. In the next round, it will be three kilograms, and it will increase in each subsequent round. When the number of people is less than ten, we will introduce five particularly rare metals. The number of awards has not yet been finalized.”

"The real highlight is the finals between us and the other two major forces. At that time, all three of us will select three of our winning soul mentors for the finals, and the final champion will get our The three underground forces will receive 1% of the total revenue from this competition as a reward. They will also receive 28 rare metals to choose from, 100 kilograms of any combination, and a heavy prize of one kilogram each of five special rare metals. The total value must be at least over ten million gold soul coins."

"It is precisely because of this that we have been able to attract so many outstanding soul masters to participate this time. You are a very favorable contender for the final championship of this competition! I am very optimistic about you."

Huo Yuhao sighed softly and said: "It's a pity that you can't bet directly on individuals today. What's the competition today?"

Three black lines appeared on Chen An's forehead, and he secretly cursed in his heart. Although you are a big shot, since you are here to compete, you have to rely on your true ability. I don’t even know anything about the competition. Isn’t this too much?
Although he was thinking this in his mind, he did not dare to say it out loud, and hurriedly said: "This round is about the production of propositional soul guides. The higher the quality of the production, the better. Because it is the first round, and the competition is to make soul guides." We provide all the materials, and the soul engineers can also take them away, so this round will be more demanding and set a higher threshold."

Huo Yuhao said impatiently: "Don't talk so much nonsense. What I want to know is what this proposition is."

This was an obvious back door, but the more he behaved like this, the more normal Chen An felt, and he quickly replied: "This round is about the production of milk bottles. The requirement is to complete a milk bottle of at least level 3 within three hours." If the production is not completed, it will be eliminated.”

Although it is also a third-level soul guide, the complexity of making the milk bottle can be compared with ordinary fourth-level soul guides. It is indeed much more difficult than the previous qualifying round.

Only soul engineers who are good at making milk bottles can advance to research soul guidance energy storage devices after reaching level six.

Afterwards, Chen An took Huo Yuhao and Ning Tian into the golden hall again. They would not be ignored this time. In the final stage of the qualifying round, Huo Yuhao's cruel killing methods really shocked many people.

Fortunately, it was just a qualifying match, and no big shots from the underground forces came to watch. Otherwise, even if Chen An wanted to cover it up, it would be impossible to cover it up.

Many people looked away when they saw Huo Yuhao, who was still smiling, and did not dare to look at him. Although no one knew what Huo Yuhao did at that time, it was too cruel to cremate others directly.

Not to mention these life-saving VIP gamblers, even the staff in the Golden Hall immediately changed their faces when they saw Huo Yuhao, and they tried to be as respectful as possible.

The rabbit is dead and the fox is sad! Wan Wang died just a few days ago. Although they didn't know Huo Yuhao's background, Chen'an had already issued a hush order, and no one wanted to be the second Wan Wang.

Under the guidance of Chen An's subordinates, Huo Yuhao was directly invited to the central circular platform this time and was placed in a more conspicuous place. Two metal tables were placed side by side. The silver-white table tops did not reflect any light under the bright light.

In addition to various standard equipment for making soul guides. There are a total of ten different metals presented on the soul guide making table, three of which are rare metals suitable for making the core array of the milk bottle.

Although the other seven kinds are not rare, they are also valuable high-end metals, and they are all very heavy. The seven high-end metals all exceed three kilograms, and the three rare metals each weigh one kilogram, which fully demonstrates the wealth of Xishui Alliance.

At this time, all the soul mentors who came to participate in the competition had arrived. Under Chen An's deliberate arrangement, Huo Yuhao was the last one to arrive. Chen An was really kind and avoided their waiting, but it undoubtedly made Huo Yuhao more attractive to the gamblers.

"Silence. The competition officially starts in five minutes. I am the chief referee of this round of competition. I will repeat the rules of the competition. All guests in the golden hall are not allowed to make any sound while the soul masters are making soul guides. Violators will be expelled from the field. But please don't worry, after this round, all our soul mentors participating in the next round will be able to compete on the stage. At that time, we can use the silent soul guidance shield to help them complete the competition. Soundproofing, all guests can talk freely when the time comes, but I’d like to ask everyone to be patient this time.”

"Attention, soul masters. I will now announce the content of this round of competition. This round of competition is about the production of proposition soul guide devices. Everyone is required to make at least a level three milk bottle. If you can complete a level four or above bottle, you will be exempted from the test in the next round. Directly enter the third round of the main competition. The competition time is three hours, and those who do not finish will be eliminated, so please be prepared."

Five minutes passed in a blink of an eye. As soon as the game started, the entire golden hall suddenly became quiet, and all the soul masters immediately started busy.

Huo Yuhao picked up a piece of black star iron from the table, which is the best material for making baby bottle shells.

For other soul guides, the shell is more of a protection and decoration, but the milk bottle is different. Every process of the baby bottle must focus on preventing the loss of soul power, so the requirements for the outer shell are very strict, the sealing must be excellent, and most parts must be formed in one piece.

The standard production table provided by Xishui League is quite good. It has soul-guiding stamping equipment and can be directly stamped and formed, which saves a lot of trouble in the process of making baby bottles.

However, Huo Yuhao seemed to have no intention of using the production table, and his actions also caused exclamations from the audience present.

"what?!"

"How can this be?!"

"My goodness!"

At this moment, Huo Yuhao's fingers suddenly released a somewhat fiery breath, and then the piece of black star iron in his hand melted directly into molten iron, and then transformed into the shape of the shell on its own.

The hundred-refined divine iron turned into finger-wrapping soft material. In just three seconds, the outer shell was completed! (End of chapter)
