Chapter 317 Why is a good sign said to be a good sign (5k)

Emperor Xue Ye saw Yan Zhuyin effortlessly defeating the seven contestants from the Academy of Beasts one by one at the VIP table, and couldn't help but show some appreciation in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, apart from Lu Yuan and Ning Rongrong, the other members of the first team of Tiandou Royal Academy were so outstanding.

"What's this child's name?" He couldn't help but ask his ministers.

"Your Majesty, this child's name is Yan Zhuyin. He is the daughter of General Yan. He will be eighteen this year." One of the ministers whispered with a flattering smile.

Another close minister was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that the other party knew the player's information so well, even his origin and age.

Obviously, the close minister had done his homework carefully before this.

"General Yan..." Emperor Xueye did not think of the Yan family, a family of hereditary generals in the empire, for the first time.

"Five hundred years ago, the Yan family was conferred the hereditary title of General Liehuo by the empire. Their ancestor was Fire Douluo Yan Yan..." Xuexing quickly reminded his brother on the side.

"So it turns out that this is the Yan family that has produced loyal ministers for generations." Emperor Xueye's eyes lit up at this time, "Yes, this daughter of the Yan family is really beautiful, beautiful and smart..."

Immediately, Emperor Xueye guessed what he was thinking. Seeing that the Yan family had such an outstanding descendant, he had some ideas to win over people.

The emperor's mentality is generally like this, to win over groups of ministers and then set them against each other.

In this way, the emperor can firmly grasp the power in his hands.

At this moment, the competition was still going on. After the Tiandou Royal Academy team won with a crushing victory, the remaining academies did not want to be outdone and began to compete on stage one by one.

Yan Zhuyin's graceful body slowly walked out of the competition venue. She came to Lu Yuan and others. Lu Yuan took the lead and transformed into the captain of the Kua Kua team.

Lu Yuan smiled and extended his thumb without hesitation and said to her, "Awesome! Zhu Yin! Much better than I expected!"

Yan Zhuyin's fiery red pupils reflected Lu Yuan's cheerful laughter, with a hint of tenderness in her evil handsomeness, and her slender eyelashes trembled.

Just like that...she was very satisfied...

Stay with Lu Yuan as a friend and help him do what he wants to do.

This is enough……

She suddenly thought about it, and a soft smile appeared on her always cold and beautiful face, "Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life."

The players from the first team of Tiandou Royal Academy were stunned for a moment. Lu Qingqing rubbed her eyes fiercely, "Am I right?"

"Sister Rongrong, pinch me quickly!" She turned to Ning Rongrong and said.

Ning Rongrong pursed her lips and smiled, "Qingqing, please stop making trouble."

"Oh my god, Sister Zhuyin actually laughed! This is really... amazing!" Lu Qingqing opened her mouth and looked at Yan Zhuyin and said.

Yan Zhuyin always behaves like an iceberg girl outside. According to her iceberg aura, she can basically scare away a group of people when she walks outside.

But Lu Yuan and others knew that Yan Zhuyin was not an iceberg girl. She did not deliberately put on such a cold and pretty face, but...

She was born with an iceberg face. According to Lu Yuan's words in her previous life, she was a girl with facial paralysis and three no features.

She knew too little about the outside world, especially since she had been practicing hard since she awakened her martial soul.

Just like the nerd in the previous life, he had less contact with the outside world, so he naturally didn't understand anything, and then he always behaved like an iceberg girl.

Even in the first team, Lu Qingqing and others rarely saw Yan Zhuyin's little face.

But now Yan Zhuyin actually smiled!

Laughed!

And she smiled so naturally!

Shi Mo also blinked, "This is also the first time I've seen Zhu Yin smile. It's not that fake smile... but Zhu Yin, you smile so beautifully!"

Shi Mo nodded, "Then Zhu Yin, just smile more!"

Yan Zhuyin was stunned for a moment, his smile quickly disappeared, and he was a little confused, "Are you laughing? I usually laugh a lot..."

Then an extremely unnatural fake smile appeared on her pretty face.

Dugu Yan said teasingly, "It seems that Zhu Yin's mood is the best guess. Zhu Yin, you really don't have such a fake smile that is so rare that it can be compared to the existence of a hundred thousand year soul beast."

Yan Zhuyin blinked. She really didn't understand why she felt so happy just now, and then Lu Qingqing and the others made such a fuss.

Lu Yuan shrugged, "Okay, okay, sit back and let's watch their games next. The information about these players will be very important to you."

Lu Qingqing, Yan Zhuyin and others immediately sat back down in their seats.

Only Ning Rongrong was sitting next to Lu Yuan at this time and held his hand tightly. Lu Yuan didn't feel anything unusual at all. Ning Rongrong held his little hand tightly, and no one noticed a flash of light in her eyes. Guilt.

In the next second game, an advanced soul master academy called the Alien Beast Academy played against a team from another principality.

Among them, there appeared a character in the original text that Lu Yuan had almost forgotten - Meng Yiran.

In the original article, the young soul master who had a conflict with Tang San and others in the Star Dou Forest because of the soul ring, her grandparents were unparalleled dragon snakes who were very famous throughout the continent.

Grandpa Long Gong and grandma Snake Po were both a Soul Saint combination that relied on martial soul fusion skills in the mainland in the early years. But now Long Gong should have reached the Contra level, and he is not even afraid of some titled Douluo when using martial soul fusion skills.

Although in the later stages of the plot, it will be difficult to get the label of a unit with basic minion combat power, it is still very powerful now.

As the granddaughter of the peerless Dragon Snake, Meng Yiran naturally has pride.

At this time, she appeared in the competition venue as the vice-captain of the Alien Beast Academy team, high-spirited.

As the first weapon soul master to appear, she fully demonstrated the advantages of the weapon soul master.

Although the weapon soul master is not as explosive as the beast soul master, the weapon soul master is better because of her long-lasting fighting power. With the poison on the snake staff and her changeable and fierce attack methods, she even defeated three people in a row.

However, there were some changes in the game on the field. Although Meng Yiran defeated three opponents in the Alien Beast Academy, the other students in their academy were obviously not as strong as Meng Yiran. Four of them were defeated by their opponents, and the final game was defeated. The winner was decided in the tenth game, with the Alien Beast Academy narrowly defeating its opponent.

Then came the match between Kamikaze Academy and Tiandou Team 2, but there was no doubt that with their strength, they also directly penetrated the opposing academy.

The second team of Tiandou calmed down a little. The Black Panther Soul Master Oslo came on first and defeated the three opponents. Then he was defeated due to lack of physical strength. Then Yu Tianheng, the young master of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect, came on the stage and directly penetrated four people in a row. Man, gain victory.

It can be seen that he still has energy left after fighting four games in a row.

But Feng Xiaotian from Shenfeng Academy seemed a little arrogant. He also wanted to replicate the feat of Tiandou's first team and complete the achievement of one wearing seven.

But it is a pity that his soul power is not as high as Yan Zhuyin's soul power, and his battery life is not as focused as Yan Zhuyin's. When he hit the opponent's sixth player, he was knocked off the ring because of his lack of soul power.

Judging from these games, there is still a certain gap between the overall strength of these academies from the Kingdom and the Principality and the Five Elements Academy.

Among the two academies that have appeared, there is at most one soul master above level 40, and most of them are only above level 30.

Like Meng Yiran, his soul power level is only around level 37 now.

Looking at it this way, the battle for the final spot in the promotion round should still be decided among the five teams that qualify from Tiandou City.

After losing the game, Feng Xiaotian showed a look of reluctance. He wanted to prove that he was no worse than Yan Zhuyin.

But clearly, he proved a failure.

Lu Yuan watched this scene in the audience and couldn't help but shake his head. Feng Xiaotian had the ability to penetrate seven at once, but unfortunately his soul power was not enough to support his consumption.

Yan Zhuyin's usual efforts were not only to practice her fighting skills and attack strength, but she also put a lot of thought into practicing her endurance and preventing excessive consumption of soul power.

Haven't you seen that she rarely uses soul skills in battle?

Especially when comparing herself to lower-level soul masters, she would not directly use powerful soul skills in pursuit of a quick victory like Feng Xiaotian did.

In addition to this, Yan Zhuyin seems to have also learned some unique tricks of the Liehuo family, which can slightly speed up the recovery of soul power.

It can only be said that even if the sects in Douluo Continent seem useless and just a group of soul masters of the same type or attribute gathered together, don't underestimate these family sects.

After all, they are sects and organizations that have been passed down for hundreds or even thousands of years, and there are always some unique tips left behind.

Although the cultivation system of this world relies too much on martial arts and soul rings, and there is very little research on techniques and methods, there will always be some powerful soul masters who have a flash of inspiration and leave behind some powerful methods.

What are the Haotian Sect's Great Sumeru Hammer, Haotian Nine Jue and Luan Cloak Hammer techniques.

This is the advanced method of the Qibao Glazed Sect's multi-tasking technique - the Qiqiao Exquisite Heart, and the unique skill of fusing rings.

The same is true for the True Dragon Nine Crowns of the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect.

As a big family whose ancestors also produced a titled Douluo, it is not surprising that the Yan family has some unique tips.

There was nothing interesting to watch in the subsequent games. Tiandou's first team, second team, and Shenfeng Academy won in a crushing manner, while Tianshui Academy was lucky enough to get a bye in this round.

However... Lu Yuan of Canghui College unexpectedly pulled his hips. Their opponent, the Botanical College, was not easy to deal with, and Canghui College's individual strength was well understood by everyone.

So after a fierce battle with five people from the opposite Botanical College, they were still defeated.

This made Emperor Xueye a little dissatisfied, because this represented the face of the Tiandou Empire. Not only did Canghui College lose, but it also lost with no face.

It was a bit of a shame to be beaten by seven players by five people from the opposite side.

However, the unbeatable record of the other four teams representing the Tiandou Empire has already made Emperor Xueye quite satisfied.

In particular, the Tiandou Royal Academy team won with a crushing force of one through seven, which directly demonstrated the majesty of the Tiandou Royal Academy!

He immediately said on the spot that each of the winning colleges today would be rewarded with one thousand gold soul coins, and the losing college would also be rewarded with five hundred gold soul coins.

After the first day of competition, the deans of each college came on stage to draw lots. Since the first and second teams of Tiandou Royal Academy belonged to the same college, Meng Shenji and Bai Baoshan both came.

Meng Shenji represented Lu Yuan's first team, while Bai Baoshan represented Yu Tianheng's second team. Bai Baoshan came to the stage first to draw lots.

But...unfortunately, Bai Baoshan showed the result of the lottery with a wry smile.

"Team 1 of Tiandou Royal Academy!"

Everyone's eyes lit up, and Lu Yuan also touched his nose helplessly. Is this the protagonist's treatment?

He also thought about how nice it would be to take a break if he had a bye.

As a result, not only was he not qualified for a bye, but he was also drawn to one of the strongest teams.

Tiandou Team 2 is definitely not much worse than Kamikaze Academy, and this is still a civil war. Although no team will be eliminated in the promotion round, it would be too uncomfortable to have a civil war early...

But in general, the team that Lu Yuan and others belong to are not afraid of any strong enemies, because they are the undoubtedly number one seeded team in this competition.

Therefore, Dugu Yan, Lu Qingqing and others did not have much emotional changes. In the final analysis, the second team was just substitute players who could not make the first team.

Tiandou's second team was not as relaxed as the first team.

Yufeng said with a face full of tears but no tears, "It's over, it's over, why did you meet a group of perverts so early?"

"Calm down." Yu Tianheng shouted helplessly, "It's really unlucky for us to meet Lu Yuan and the others so early. We can't beat them, but it doesn't mean we have no backbone."

They all knew that with Lu Yuan here, the Tiandou team would never lose.

Lu Yuan is the contestant with the highest level of soul power in this promotion competition, and even in this continent-wide advanced soul master competition. There is no one among them. The cultivation level of the sixty-level soul emperor can completely arrogant among the others.

It is estimated that in this competition, only the legendary golden generation of Wuhun Palace can compete with them.

Even the golden generation that Wuhun Palace touted extremely highly was only a Soul King. In front of Lu Yuan, the Soul Emperor, he had already lost in terms of cultivation.

Although cultivation does not necessarily represent actual combat power.

But it is very likely that even the three soul kings of the Golden Generation of Wuhun Palace will be unable to defeat Lu Yuan, who is at the soul emperor level.

You know, Lu Yuan's most well-known achievement so far is that he killed Titan, the leader of the Li Clan, on the spot!

Taitan is a Contra-level soul master!

He is also a pure strength soul master plus a veteran soul douluo. It is said that his combat power is not weaker than that of a certain titled douluo.

Although no one had seen the battle, it was hard to believe that Lu Yuan killed a Contra head-on.

But even though it is hard to believe, after all, he has such a brilliant record in his hands. Even if it is not 100% true, Lu Yuan should still be somewhat powerful.

In the promotion match, even if everyone else in the Tiandou team loses, as long as Lu Yuan is still there, they will never lose.

Standing next to Yu Tianheng, Ye Lingling's eyes were a little solemn at this time. Although she didn't have to play as an auxiliary soul master, she was also worried about the Tiandou Second Team and others, "They should still be like today. Same, send one person to fight first."

"Is it still Yan Zhuyin?" Yufeng whispered.

He had fought against Yan Zhuyin. His flying martial soul wind chime bird was difficult to fight and attack in the eyes of other soul masters, but in front of Yan Zhuyin who had the martial soul falling phoenix bow, he was just a flying target.

It would not be good if Yan Zhuyin won the first game too easily...

"No, their captain Lu Yuan probably wants the other players who have not played in the game to come on one by one to practice." Ye Lingling's cold voice sounded.

"After Yan Zhuyin comes on stage today, she won't be the first one to come on tomorrow, it will be someone else."

"Others?" Yu Tianxin frowned, "Who? Ning Rongrong is an auxiliary soul master and will definitely not play. Is that the granddaughter of Poison Douluo? Brother Graphite Shimo?"

"Lu Qingqing." Ye Lingling said firmly.

"His sister?" Yu Tianheng and others were a little curious. Oslo shook his head, "It shouldn't be possible. In terms of soul power level, Lu Qingqing is only higher than the Shi brothers."

"I think it's more likely to be Dugu Yan." Yu Tianheng said.

"Then let's wait and see tomorrow." Ye Lingling was a truly aloof girl, not a faceless paralysis like Yan Zhuyin. She didn't want to say anything more at all.

Immediately, others continued to discuss this fiercely, but what they discussed was not how to win tomorrow's game.

Instead, try your best not to fight to the last player of the team. The best thing is to force Lu Yuan out.

Even though they knew that if Lu Yuan took action, they would definitely lose.

But if they could force Lu Yuan to take action, it would be quite a success for them!

Losing to a Soul Emperor is the most dignified way to lose a game!

The second team is having a heated discussion about arranging their players for tomorrow's game, but the first team, Lu Yuan, and the others have no idea of ​​​​discussing anything.

Ye Lingling said something right. In this competition, Lu Yuan just wanted others to get enough training. As for the outcome...

Is it worth considering?

It doesn't matter anyway, Lu Yuan will take action.

At this time, Emperor Xueye, who was sitting at the VIP table, looked livid. After all, the first team and the second team were both affiliated with the Tiandou Royal Academy, and they represented the Tiandou royal family.

Meeting the opponent so early and starting a civil war was something Emperor Xueye didn't want to see.

But it can also be seen that the draw of the game really has no human factors at all. If Emperor Xue Ye can manipulate the result of the draw, he will definitely change the result of the draw.

The exact opposite of Emperor Xue Ye's expression was Bishop Salas Platinum, the master of the Wuhun Temple. At this time, his old face, which had always been full of bitterness and hatred, even showed a bit of joy.

After the Tiandou Royal Academy Civil War was drawn, other academies also came on stage to draw lots, but fortunately, the remaining three teams from Tiandou Zhili did not have a bye.

But they were not unlucky enough to draw each other again. Instead, they each drew some colleges that were relatively weak on paper.

The fifteen academy teams all left the Royal Hunting Ground, returned to their own residences or temporary residences to rest, and then discussed the next day's competition.
