Chapter 161 The soul fighting competition begins!

(Oh, I was originally expected to have five updates today, but the driving school called me over. The good news is that the author can register for subject two again on the 12th. The bad news is that today’s expected five updates are no longer available, but there are still two updates. However, It should be fine in the next few days, and there is no need to practice driving. Just write as much as you can.)

(Ke Er Er Er Lang, go, go, go!)

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into Xingluo City, this ancient capital with a history even older than Shrek City revealed a serious atmosphere.

Soldiers with bright armor blocked all the roads near the Star Emperor Hotel. Thousands of soldiers with bright armor formed two human walls. Only the team members from each academy who walked out of the Star Emperor Hotel could pass through.

The competition stage for this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is not built in the center of Xingluo Square, but in front of the main entrance of the Imperial City.

In this way, Emperor Xu Jiawei of the Star Luo Empire and his civil and military ministers could directly watch the battle from a high position on the top of the imperial city. Not only would they have the best view, but they would also be able to prevent assassination attempts by young people.

Of course, preventing assassins is just a matter of taking advantage of the situation. Xu Jiawei is a powerful Titled Douluo, and he has inherited the powerful Star Crown Martial Spirit, and his own fighting ability is extremely good.

If you really wanted to assassinate him, you would have to use at least three super Douluo, or the pinnacle experts in this world like Xuanzi, Du Bushu, and Long Xiaoyao. Otherwise, not even a hair of Emperor Xingluo can be touched.

The area of ​​the competition stage is slightly smaller than Shrek's Soul Fighting Area, with a height of 100 meters and a height of 5 meters.

There are a total of 108 metal pillars on the periphery of the competition stage, which are protective soul guides imported from the Sun and Moon Empire. After the competition begins, one hundred and eight soul masters will take charge of the protection of the competition stage. These metal pillars will form a protective shield to block all soul skills inside from escaping, so as not to damage the imperial city or hurt innocent people.

A luxurious rest area is built on the west side of the competition stage, specially provided for the rest of the participating team members from each college. However, the rest area can only accommodate about seventy colleges, and there are no seats prepared for colleges eliminated in the first round.

The loser eats the dust, the survival of the fittest, this is the iron law of the soul master world!Only the winners have a chance to get a position, and the losers don't even have a chance to leave a name.

Of course, this does not include the two unlucky teams that met Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy in the first round of eliminations.

In almost every tournament, people watching the game would discuss which unlucky guy who had no merit in his previous life had drawn these two behemoths. They were used as a typical case to scare the monkeys, and as a sacrifice to show their strength in the opening game.

Today's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is different from the competition organized by Wuhun Palace ten thousand years ago. The first round is a direct knockout. If you lose, you will leave. Its excitement and even tragedy are far more exciting than the subsequent round-robin matches. .

The round robin can have tactical arrangements and even tactical failures. But the knockout round is about winning or losing, and winning or losing, so the first thing these soul master academies do when they wake up in the morning is burn incense and take a bath in preparation for drawing lots.

And since such a huge amount of money was spent to hold such a grand event, the Star Luo Empire would naturally not fail to make money from it.

If you want to watch the game, the ticket fee per person per day is as much as two gold soul coins. You know, even Huo Yuhao, who sells barbecue in front of Shrek Academy, his price is basically two gold soul coins.

Prices like this have basically completely cut off the hope of civilians watching the game. Those who can enter the stadium to watch the game must at least be from well-off families, otherwise they simply cannot afford such expenses.

Moreover, these two gold soul coins are only the most basic price. The closer to the competition stage, the more expensive the admission fee is. When we arrived at the viewing area closest to the competition stage, everyone had to pay a hundred gold soul coins to enter.

To the big forces in the soul master world and those wealthy businessmen, this is just a small amount of money. But for those common people who longed to become soul masters and stand out, this was a luxury they could never hope for in their lives.

Early in the morning, the leading teachers from each college had already arrived at the Imperial City to draw lots based on the competition number plates they received when registering. At this time, the lottery ceremony has been completed, and officials from the Star Luo Empire have compiled the results of the lottery.

As soon as the order of the competition comes out, the final preparations for the early stage of the competition will be completed.

The sun slowly rose into the sky from the distant east, and a warmth suddenly filled Xingluo City.

Just as the audience entered the venue, Huo Yuhao and his companions had already come to stand in the contestant area.

Today, everyone in Shrek Academy is wearing traditional dark green uniforms, which is the standard color of Shrek Academy. However, Huo Yuhao still wore his simple-looking black outfit, showing his identity as a loan player.

Of course, before Mr. Xuan left, he mentioned that Huo Yuhao should wear the Shrek Academy uniform to compete.

But Huo Yuhao’s answer only had three words, so you have to pay extra!

His soul bone supplier, Ma Xiaotao, had gone somewhere, so he naturally had to find soul bones through other channels.

But when he heard Huo Yuhao's aggressive conditions, Mr. Xuan snorted coldly and left directly.

Naturally, Huo Yuhao wasn't used to it either, so he just wore his own clothes.

After all, Shrek Academy's shit-green uniforms had been ridiculed from the beginning, and he didn't want to wear them at all.

The position they were standing in was in the first row of all the colleges. Naturally, no one of the colleges had any objections to this. However, the academy contestants standing behind looked at the lineup of Shrek Academy and couldn't help but express some surprise.

This time, only eight people came to Shrek Academy, and among these eight people, not two looked to be fifteen years old. Their youthfulness could be clearly seen without judging their bone age.

However, Shrek Academy has been gaining prestige for a long time. For most of the academies, they are secretly praying in their hearts that they must not run into anyone from Shrek Academy or the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy in the first round, otherwise they will almost be the same. Yu announced that they had been eliminated.

The participating team members from the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy were standing behind Shrek Academy. At this time, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, a pair of elite brothers and sisters, both set their sights on Huo Yuhao, who was standing at the front of Shrek Academy.

Meng Hongchen was naturally admiring Huo Yuhao's profile, and also noticed the handsome pink-haired boy Wang Dong.

Wow, why are there so many handsome guys in Shrek Academy? Is this paradise? Which one should Huo Yuhao or Wang Dong choose? It’s really hard to choose!

Of course, if Huo Yuhao knew Meng Hongchen's thoughts, he would tell her straightforwardly that she didn't have to worry about such things. Even if they slept together, he, Huo, would have no objection.

Xiao Hongchen's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the cause of revenge.

I touched my head in a daze, and it was up to me, Xiao Hongchen, to protect me!

By the time the sun rose three poles, all the spectators had entered the venue. And then, a voice broke the silence of the arena.

"His Majesty the Emperor has arrived."

All participating colleges were notified beforehand, allowing them not to kneel and only need to bow slightly.

In the arena, the audience and the soldiers maintaining order formed a wave of waves. The scene of hundreds of thousands of people kneeling at the same time was very spectacular.

"My lords, please make peace."

The voice of the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire was amplified and broadcast by the amplifying soul guide. The people then stood up one after another. The students from the participating colleges also straightened their backs. Everyone's eyes were focused on the head of the imperial city in front of them. above.

"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is the most important event in our Douluo Continent soul master world. This time it is our turn to be held in our Star Luo Empire, and I am very happy. Here, on behalf of the Star Luo Empire, I welcome those who have come from afar. Representatives from various colleges including Shrek Academy are here. I hope you will show your due style in the competition in the next month."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The leaders and students from the colleges bowed again.

Emperor Xingluo also smiled and nodded in their direction.

"Okay, I announce. The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition has officially begun."
