Chapter 314 Official debut

(PS: I made a mistake when I checked the information. The promotion competition was not held in Wuhun City, but continued within the two empires. The finals was in Wuhun City. It has been modified here.

I highlighted a favor during the Chinese New Year. Now I look back and realize that I made a mistake, so I will correct it here. I will also try to correct the mistakes in the previous article when I have time. )

After the qualifiers are over, according to the procedures, an awards ceremony will be held immediately to provide qualification certificates for the top five teams in the qualifiers.

This includes the first team of Tiandou Royal Academy, which did not participate in the qualifiers at all but was directly sent out.

After the game, the Tiandou Spirit Fighting Arena tidied up the venue a little.

In addition, the players from the teams that had just finished the game were allowed to take care of their injuries and tidy up their clothes. After this brief intermission, the awards ceremony officially began.

Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong and other players from the first team of the Tiandou Royal Academy also put on pure white uniforms that were different from the goose-yellow uniforms of the second team, and gathered with the players from the other four teams.

However, since the main arena in the center was destroyed in previous games, this process was also simplified.

The procedure of this ceremony is that other unqualified colleges will not participate in the final ceremony, and only the top five teams will go to the VIP podium to receive their qualification certificates.

The process of the ceremony was not complicated. Under the announcement of the host, the captains and vice-captains of the top five teams were allowed to step onto the podium.

Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong are naturally the captain and vice-captain of Team 1 of Tiandou Royal Academy. Although they both feel that they are not usually captains, it is Dugu Yan who is really interested in this team.

Lu Yuan, on the other hand, has been missing for three years. After returning to Tiandou City, he will almost never appear in the academy.

Ning Rongrong had been practicing in seclusion before this in order to break through to the soul king level, so the time to manage a team would be even better.

According to Dugu Yan, the two of them had such a tacit understanding that they acted as the boss together and directly handed over the whole team to her.

But at this time, it was Ning Rongrong and Lu Yuan who were on the rostrum. They looked at each other and smiled, holding hands and walking onto the rostrum together without hesitation.

This is also the first time that the Tiandou Royal Academy's first team has officially appeared in the continent-wide high-level soul master competition.

"Who is that? Why haven't I seen it? Which academy's players are they from? Why can they go up? Aren't there only four promotion places?" In the audience, some viewers who didn't understand the competition system suddenly started talking.

"Is this your first time watching the All-Continental Soul Master Senior Competition? Don't you know this is the first team from the Tiandou Royal Academy? They are the seed team that will be promoted to the promotion competition!" Some knowledgeable spectators began to talk proudly. .

"Guide? Isn't this cheating?"

"Are you kidding me? Have you looked at that team? Do you know the name of Yu Tianheng's team?"

"Isn't it the Tiandou Royal Academy team?"

"Their full name is actually the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy! And this is the first team! Do you know that the second team is the substitute player of the first team? In other words, the first team is the weakest, and they are stronger than the second team. powerful!"

"Look at the fact that the second team of Tiandou led by Yu Tianheng all killed each other in the qualifiers. Does it make any difference if the first team also participates in the competition? Then they might as well give out a recommendation! It would be very unfair to other colleges to compete for a few places without a recommendation. Fair enough!"

"It's a pity that the promotion match is not open to the public. Otherwise, I really want to know how strong these talented teenagers in the first team are!"

"They look really good! Look at the captain and vice-captain of that team, they are so handsome!"

"Are they a couple?"

"The captains of the first team are all from the Qibao Glazed Sect, and the vice-captain is the daughter of the master of the Qibao Glazed Sect! It is said that they are already engaged!"

"If nothing else, the players on the first team of Tiandou Royal Academy are really good-looking, except for those two short bastard-like young men..."

…

The audience was talking a lot about the Tiandou Royal Academy team that they had never seen before, and under the rostrum, the players from the other four promoted teams couldn't help but observe Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong who came on stage.

But this was an awards ceremony, and they couldn't discuss it in whispers, so naturally they didn't talk.

Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong both ignored the audience's comments and the gazes of other contestants and went directly to the podium in front of the judges.

Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Rongrong and Lu Yuan who came to him, nodded and smiled at them.

Then the captains and deputy captains of Tiandou Second Team, Shenfeng Academy, Tianshui Academy, and Canghui Academy also came to the judges' podium one by one.

"Next, Your Majesty, together with Master Qibao Glazed Sect Ning and Bishop Salas Platinum, will personally award qualification certificates and bonuses to the five teams that entered the promotion competition." the host announced.

There was warm applause from the audience.

The promotion qualification certificate is actually a letter, and this thing is not afraid of fraud. After all, Wuhun Palace and Tiandou Empire know which college has been promoted.

The prize money received by the five teams is the same. After all, this is only a qualifier.

Each team received a reward of 10,000 gold soul coins issued by the Tiandou Empire. In the finals, the top three prizes will be provided by Wuhundian.

After the awards were awarded, the host award was handed over to Emperor Xue Ye, the most distinguished person present.

Emperor Xue Ye glanced at the player representatives of the five teams in front of him and said with a smile: "First of all, children, I want to congratulate you."

"You have successfully qualified for the elite competition of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy. As the supreme ruler of the Tiandou Empire, I am proud of you. You are all the hope of the future of the empire. As the captain and deputy of each team, Captain, your strength also played the most important role in the competition. Therefore, I have decided to confer the title of Viscount on ten of you. The title of Baron on the other participating students from your four colleges. After you graduate, the gate of the imperial royal family It will be open to you at any time. Your fiefdoms will be distributed uniformly after your graduation."

Emperor Xueye paused at this moment, looked at Lu Yuan, and said with a smile, "But there is already an imperial viscount here, Viscount Lu Yuan, you already have a title, but you can give this viscount title to others, you have what idea?"

Lu Yuan bowed slightly, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. In that case, my sister Lu Qingqing is also a player in our team this time. How about transferring this title to her?"

Lu Qingqing, who was waiting under the stage, was a little surprised, but soon Xue Ye smiled and nodded, "In that case, Yun!"

"Your Majesty, isn't this good?" Salas frowned slightly at the side and suddenly interjected.

Dare to interrupt when the emperor of a country is speaking, which shows how powerful Wuhun Palace is.

Emperor Xueye glanced at Salas lightly, "Is there anything wrong? Your Excellency, Bishop Salas."

Salas said: "In previous competitions, there is no precedent for awarding knighthoods. What's more, is the knighthood given too high?"

Regardless of whether it is the Tiandou Empire or the Star Luo Empire, the ranking of titles is Duke, Marquis, Uncle, Son, and Male. Just qualifying for one qualifying round will give you the noble title of ten viscounts. The generosity of this Xueye Emperor was enough to surprise anyone around him.

Emperor Xue Ye blocked Salas's mouth with just one sentence, "Your Excellency Bishop Platinum, the awarding of titles is an internal matter of the empire and has nothing to do with Wuhun Palace. It has nothing to do with this competition. It's just that I appreciate the contributions these children have given. It’s just a reward. They represent our Heaven Dou Empire to participate in this Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition, and I also want to make a promise to you here..."

He smiled slightly and said, "If one of your teams can win the final game, the entire team's knighthood will be promoted to one level. At the same time, the prefix of the academy will be added with the word "royal" and it will be financially supported by the empire."

"And the captain and deputy captain will get a promise from me. Whether it is a fiefdom request, a treasure reward, or an official position, I can agree to it!"

"Of course, you can't go too far. For example, if you want to replace Sect Master Ning as the Sect Master of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, I can't meet this request." Emperor Xue Ye looked at Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong and said teasingly.

Everyone knows that Emperor Xue Ye is joking, especially when he is obviously speaking to Ning Rongrong and Lu Yuan. Who doesn’t know now that Ning Rongrong and Lu Yuan are members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect recognized by Ning Fengzhi personally? heir.

Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong both smiled slightly, playing along with Emperor Xue Ye's unfunny joke.

Ning Fengzhi also took over the conversation cheerfully, "As long as His Majesty has the will, I will definitely give up the position of the sect leader to the captain and deputy captain of this championship team! I believe that in their hands, our Seven Treasures Glazed Sect will definitely usher in its heyday! "

Although no one took what he said seriously, Emperor Xueye, Bishop Salas and other insiders all knew that what he said was half-truth and half-false.

Because no one in the entire empire knew that Ning Fengzhi had appointed Ning Rongrong and Lu Yuan as the next heirs of the Qibao Glazed Sect.

And they are also the captain and deputy captain of the Tiandou Team 1. Doesn't this mean that the Tiandou Royal Academy Team 1, led by Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong, will win the championship of this continent-wide advanced soul master competition?

Salas snorted coldly. As the bishop of Wuhun Palace, he naturally couldn't bear to see Ning Fengzhi's words of regarding the championship as something in his pocket.

But when he thought of Lu Yuan's great strength, his heart pounded.

The information that Lu Yuan had reached the level of Soul Emperor had already been sent back to Wuhun City through spies. His Majesty the Pope was said to have begun preparing secret weapons for the golden generation of Wuhun Palace.

Of course, Salas doesn't know about this secret weapon. All he knows is that this secret weapon will definitely allow the three soul kings of the golden generation to have a combat power comparable to that of the soul emperor!

And although Emperor Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi were joking here, Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong didn't seem to take the so-called title reward and the championship reward seriously.

But the captains and deputy captains of the other teams were not so indifferent. Although these young people could be considered to have seen the world, they were still a little confused when Emperor Xueye's large list of rewards came down.

What does the title mean? The viscount can already have his own territory and attendants, and will also receive a certain amount of subsidies from the state. This money alone is enough to live on.

Although many soul masters have titles, it is easy to obtain the titles of kingdoms and principalities, but it is not that simple to obtain the titles of the empire, especially the directly awarded title of viscount. The territory owned by a viscount can already be a small city. .

The most valuable thing is that Emperor Xueye has promised the ten people in front of him that after this competition is over, they will be given fiefdoms.

This shows that they are not just a mere name for a title, but nobles who actually own the territory.

Among the ten people here, only Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin didn't seem to be tempted. After all, they were from the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect and had a big family, so it was normal for them to look down upon them.

The captains of the remaining three teams were full of joy, especially the captains and deputy captains of Canghui College. It was like pie in the sky.

It's not in vain that they endured all the way to the end, and only in the last game faced the powerful enemy Thunder Academy did they come up with the best seven-in-one fusion technique.

This is true. Reaching the semi-finals counts as success!

Reaching the semi-finals of the qualifiers and directly getting two viscounts with fiefdoms was such a success.

But seeing Salas' displeased face, the captains and vice-captains of the five teams that passed the qualifiers were all elites among young soul masters, and each one was smarter than the other.

From Emperor Xueye's promise and Salas's stoppage, they could vaguely feel the smell of gunpowder.

Ning Fengzhi just stood aside with a smile and said nothing, and only slightly cooperated with Emperor Xue Ye's applause.

Emperor Xueye didn't seem to notice Platinum Bishop Salas' ugly face at all, and smiled and said: "The next promotion competition will still be held in the empire. But the venue will be changed from the Tiandou Great Soul Fighting Arena to the Royal Paddock. At that time, the ten teams from the Five Principalities and Kingdoms that have passed the qualifiers will come to compete with you in the promotion round. I hope that all five of your teams will be among the best in the promotion round, so that you can have a head start when participating in the finals. .”

"The promotion competition is the best stage to reflect your personal strength. At that time, the top three students who have won the most promotion competitions, the empire will provide you with the soul beasts you need for the next title promotion. You can choose the soul beasts by yourself. The empire can guarantee all kinds of soul beasts with cultivation levels below 30,000 years."

At this time, the other three civilian academy players looked strange.

You must know that, except for Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong, these ten captains and deputy captains representing each college are all around level 40. The next time they upgrade their titles, they will be at level 50.

Although level 50 is not as important as level 30 soul rings, level 50 is the first level where one can obtain a ten-thousand-year soul ring.

The strength of the first ten thousand year soul ring will have a great impact on each of their futures.

If you can choose a soul beast according to your needs, it will undoubtedly have great benefits. Not only will you not need to take risks and waste time, but you will also be able to maximize your martial soul.

Starting from level 50, a soul master's training speed will be greatly reduced. With a ten-thousand-year soul ring as a guarantee, he will undoubtedly be able to remain strong during the process of level 50 to 60, which will be of infinite benefit to future development. .

For powerful sects like the Qibao Glazed Sect and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, choosing a soul ring is naturally nothing.

There are countless powerful seniors in the sect. No matter the type of soul ring, age, or how to obtain the soul ring, it is not difficult in their eyes.

You don’t really think that only Yu Xiao will help the soul master choose the most suitable soul ring, right?

Feeling the rising heat in the eyes of the contestants, Emperor Xueye smiled slightly, "The promotion competition will be held in one month. I hope you can make breakthroughs within this month. Okay, I won't say much else. You guys These kids are smart, and I think you'll make smart choices."

After saying these words, Emperor Xue Ye turned his gaze and glanced at the face of Platinum Bishop Salas before turning around and leaving accompanied by the imperial servants.

Salas's eyes moved slightly, but his expression had completely calmed down. It was difficult to tell anything from the expression on his face.

Just as Emperor Xue Ye said, although he did not say it clearly, the captains and deputy captains of each academy team understood what he meant.

Tiandou Empire or Wuhun Palace, choose one of the two.

Lu Yuan, Ning Rongrong, Yu Tianheng and others were all extremely calm. Their positions had actually been determined long ago. It was impossible for anyone from the Shangsan Sect to join the Spirit Hall.

That's Chi Guoguo's betrayal!

After the award ceremony ended, the audience and contestants were ready to leave the scene.

The next game will be the promotion stage. The format of the promotion competition is completely different from that of the qualifiers.

The qualifiers are a single round-robin format, and the team with the highest winning points in each preliminary division enters the promotion round.

The promotion competition will be conducted in a special way. Although the participating teams still send seven participating students, they will compete one by one.

The winner continues to stay on the field, and the loser continues to send students until all the students on one side fail.

However, no team will be eliminated in the promotion round, but the thirty-three teams will be ranked first, second, and third.

However, the promotion competition is an arena competition system. The test is no longer a team battle strength, but a test of personal strength and individual combat ability.

This is undoubtedly very beneficial to Shenfeng Academy, because their captain Feng Xiaotian is the player with the strongest single combat ability in this competition besides Lu Yuan.

But it is quite disadvantageous for colleges such as Tianshui College that require cooperation and martial soul fusion skills.

In the preliminaries, Tianshui Academy was able to fight against Shenfeng Academy until the end because of Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's martial soul fusion skill - Ice and Snow Piaoling. Under the rules of the promotion competition, they were unable to activate it with two people on the field. Martial soul fusion skills.

In the promotion round, Tianshui Academy will definitely not be able to match the second team of Shenfeng Academy and Tiandou Royal Academy.

This is not bad. The seven members of Tianshui Academy are capable at least.

Like Canghui Academy, it's miserable. The seven-in-one fusion skill is awesome, right?

It's ridiculous, they can't be used in the promotion competition, and their individual strength is also very poor.

But it’s okay if Canghui Academy can reach the promotion round. After all, they have already reached the semi-finals (qualifiers).
