Chapter 266 Emperor Xueye

At this time, the participating teams gradually entered the Great Soul Fighting Arena.

Most of the teams that came to participate were dressed in glamorous clothes. Dressed in beautiful uniforms of gold, silver, red, and white with various decorations, patterns, and college logos, the young soul masters all walked like heroes. Entered the Great Soul Fighting Arena.

It is the majestic appearance and the feeling of looking down on the world.

At this time, the competition staff quickly entered the rest area and organized the students who had already arrived to enter.

Surrounding the huge and open square were countless shouting and cheering spectators.

Directly in front of the central venue is a rostrum with a golden background. Behind the rostrum is the renovated VIP area.

The diameter of the wide field is more than 150 meters, and the academies entering from the front have already formed a neat formation in the center of the field.

When each college enters, there will be a special emcee on the podium to introduce it.

Lu Yuan and a group of members of the Tiandou Royal Academy Team 1 stood in front of the stands. Looking at the grand scene in front of them, he held up his chin and said with a smile, "This scene is quite shocking, but it's a pity... we can only stand here. Watch.”

With a relaxed expression, he stood in front of the railing, holding up his sinister handsome face and looking down at the participating students below.

Today is the opening ceremony, and it is also the first day of the elite competition of the entire continent's advanced soul master academy. Apart from the opening ceremony, there is only one competition.

The second team of Tiandou Royal Academy will select an opponent for the first round of the round-robin competition, which can be regarded as a team battle spirit with some performance qualities.

Otherwise, it is just an opening ceremony, which obviously cannot satisfy the audience's interest.

At this time, the Tiandou Royal Academy's second team, led by Yu Tianheng, entered the field on behalf of the Tiandou Royal Academy. Lu Yuan's first team just came to see the atmosphere today.

"Boss, do you want to go down and try your skills?" The two brothers Shimo and Shimo stood behind him and said curiously.

"Stop...it's a bit bullying if I do anything." Lu Yuan slapped his mouth.

"You still know that you bully others." Dugu Yan stood behind him and rolled his eyes.

"Yeah...but it's okay. We don't need to participate in the preliminaries. We just need to wait until the finals. And the finals...except for the guys from Wuhun Palace and Star Luo Empire, everything else will be taken care of by you." Lu Yuan chuckled and said.

Nowadays, all the members of the Tiandou Royal Academy team are members of the Soul Sect and above, plus... with the assistance of Ning Rongrong, the Nine Treasure Glazed Pagoda Soul King, it should not be a problem to deal with those people.

As for the remaining Canghui Academy, Lu Yuan felt that it was up to them to see if they could pass the preliminaries, otherwise they would not even be qualified to become their opponents.

"Don't worry, Xiao Yuan. As long as I'm here, I will lead everyone to victory." Ning Rongrong said with a smile.

"With you here, I feel most at ease." Lu Yuan chuckled and said.

"Look! It's dad's time to appear!" At this moment, Ning Rongrong shouted happily.

…

At this time, in this stand that can accommodate 80,000 spectators, I have to say that this is indeed the soul fighting arena of Tiandou City. The scale is astonishingly large.

This spirit fighting arena is all decorated with a silver-toned background. Although it is morning, special magic device lighting is hung all around, giving people not only luxury, but also a sense of grandeur.

At this time, on the central VIP stage, sitting on the left side were the three educational committee members of Tiandou Royal Academy whom Lu Yuan knew. From left to right, they were - Meng Shenji, Bai Baoshan, and Zhilin.

And sitting above them was an old man in rich clothes. This man was wearing a large yellow robe with lots of embroidery, but he didn't look messy. The gray hair is neatly combed on the back of his head.

He is of medium height, slightly overweight, and has a dignified appearance.

It's just that the eyes look a little smaller, which ruins the overall feeling of the facial features.

Lu Yuan also happened to know Prince Xuexing, the younger brother of the current emperor of the Dou Empire. However, he had always been at odds with Ning Fengzhi. Lu Yuan followed Ning Fengzhi and naturally met him many times.

There was a person in the absolute center of the seat, wearing a golden-red robe and a golden crown with diamonds on his head. His face was like the ancient moon. He looked slightly older than Prince Snow Star, and there were some similarities between his eyebrows.

The difference is that this person's magnanimity is far beyond that of Prince Snow Star. Although he looks a bit old, sitting there gives people a sense of origin.

It seemed like everything around him was centered around him.

Lu Yuan had never seen this person before, but with just a quick guess, he guessed that this was Emperor Xue Ye, the current emperor of the Dou Empire.

"Is this the emperor of the current empire?" He suddenly felt a trace of contempt in his heart.

Although Emperor Xueye has a unique and domineering temperament, he looks so old and decrepit that he doesn't even know if he can reach the Soul Saint level. With this attitude, can he still lead the behemoth of the Tiandou Empire?

The territory of the Tiandou Empire occupies almost half of the Douluo Continent, but the emperor in front of him looks so incompetent.

Lu Yuan suddenly admired Ning Fengzhi for being willing to serve under such an incompetent old emperor. As the first generation leader of the Qibao Glazed Sect, how could he be willing to suffer such a great humiliation?

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" At this moment, Lu Qingqing's voice came.

Lu Yuan woke up, and he quickly suppressed the arrogance towards Emperor Xueye in his eyes, and said to Lu Qingqing with a smile, "What's wrong?"

At this time, everyone in the Tiandou Royal Academy's first team looked at him. Ning Rongrong blinked, "You just... seemed to have completely changed your aura and become extremely powerful. Did something happen?"

"It's okay." Lu Yuan chuckled, "I just hope that one day I will ascend to the supreme 'championship' position."

"Champion?" Dugu Yan said with a chuckle, "Who will be your opponent in this competition? Don't worry, we will help you win the championship."

"I will try my best to fight for you, Lu Yuan." Yan Zhuyin said softly at this time.

Ning Rongrong glanced at Yan Zhuyin and said with a smile, "No matter what, the championship will only belong to you!"

Lu Qingqing clenched her fists, "Brother, don't worry! No one can be our opponent!"

"Boss, we will work hard too!" Brother Shimo Shimo immediately said firmly.

"I will." Lu Yuan said with a smile, but no one noticed that he had been looking at the VIP table just now.

He continued to observe the people on the VIP table. To the left of the aging emperor, there was an old man who was even older than him. The whole body is covered in a bright red robe, with a five-pointed platinum crown on his head. His eyes are slightly closed, as if he is asleep.

But even so, he looked more energetic than Emperor Xueye. His shoulders were narrow and his slender body was like a javelin.

The supreme ruler of Wuhun Palace is undoubtedly the Pope. Under the Pope, there are four archbishops, whose status is symbolized by a five-pointed platinum crown. The person in front of him is undoubtedly one of the Platinum Bishops.

Needless to say, he is the Platinum Bishop of Tiandou City Spirit Temple—Salas.

On the right side of Emperor Xue Ye is Ning Rongrong's father, the contemporary head of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, Ning Fengzhi.

At this moment, the master of ceremonies on the side of the VIP table said loudly: "Now, I would like to invite His Majesty the Emperor of the Tiandou Empire to announce the opening of this competition."

Sitting in the center of the first row of the VIP seats, Emperor Xueye, wearing a red-gold robe, stood up slowly amid thunderous applause.

He raised his right hand and waved lightly to the audience and the participating soul masters below. The applause quickly stopped and the square of Nuo University became silent.

A calm and resonant voice spread throughout the audience through the loudspeaker soul guide, "I, Emperor Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire, on behalf of the Heaven Dou Empire and on behalf of the organizer of this competition, announce the Pan-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition Opening now.”

The applause thundered again, and cheers came and went.

However, it seems that the smile on His Majesty's face is a bit forced, as if he is not excited about this competition.

But besides being far-fetched, Lu Yuan could also see that Emperor Xueye's old face was getting paler.

"It seems that the toxins in his body have seriously affected his daily actions." Lu Yuan immediately guessed it.

When the applause fell silent again, His Majesty the Emperor continued: "Here, I hope that all the soul masters participating in this competition can give full play to their strengths and achieve good results. You are all the pride of the Tiandou Empire. For the glory of the empire, show your glory."

His Majesty the Emperor sat back down, and the master of ceremonies' voice sounded again, "Now, I would like to invite Mr. Ning Fengzhi, the master of the Qibao Glazed Sect, to give a speech for this competition."

As Ning Fengzhi stood up, applause appeared again, and more attention was paid to him. As the number one auxiliary soul master in the soul master world, who wouldn't want to see his style.

Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly and pressed his hands, "I am very happy to be invited to be the guest at the opening of this competition. As the head of the Qibao Glazed Sect, I have seen too many soul masters grow up. As the most noble profession in the mainland, , the development of every soul master must go through many hardships. But what I want to say is that the sharp edge of the sword comes from sharpening, and the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold. Those participating in this soul master competition are undoubtedly the elites of the younger generation. As His Majesty just said, I hope you can bring glory to the empire and also bring glory to your own college."

"The empire needs talents like you, thank you."

Listening to Ning Fengzhi's speech, a sincere smile finally appeared on Emperor Xueye's face.

"And I believe...the victory in this competition will belong to our Tiandou Empire!" Ning Fengzhi said conclusively.

The audience immediately cheered. They were all citizens of the Tiandou Empire, and they naturally hoped that victory would belong to the Tiandou Empire.

Of course, everyone felt that Ning Fengzhi was talking about something superficial.

Only those at the scene who had received some news were a little solemn. The platinum bishop Salas, who had been closing his eyes to rest, opened his eyes and looked at Ning Fengzhi solemnly.

He knew very well that what Ning Fengzhi said was not for the occasion.

After all...the news he got from Qian Renxue was...

Lu Yuan has been promoted to Soul Emperor!

"When the incompetent emperor sits on the throne, I am the one who protects the integrity of the territory!"

hhh, I have already thought about the plot of this line, but this should be the plot of the second half of the volume.
