Chapter 63 Semi-finals, Battle against Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy
Turn the perspective back to Xingluo City.

What is about to take place today is the semi-finals, which can also be called the semi-finals, because after this game is over, the final that everyone is looking forward to will also begin.

And now, the teams that have survived the baptism of more than a month from the initial participation of more than a hundred teams are the pride of every country.

Shrek Academy, Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Instructor, Sky Soul Empire Di'ao Academy, Star Luo Empire National Academy.

The entry of each team was met with thunderous cheers, and now the pre-match draw was underway.

In order to ensure fairness between the semi-finals and finals, the draw round for the semi-finals was directly held on the day of the competition.

The so-called fairness is only relative fairness.

As the sun shone on Xingluo Square, a luxurious red carpet was seen stretching from the gate of the imperial city all the way to the front of the competition stage.

With ten minutes left before the draw, the emperor of the Xing Luo Empire walked towards the competition stage surrounded by palace guards.

The soldiers responsible for maintaining order and the civilians of the Star Luo Empire were all shouting "Long live the Star Luo Empire".

The members of the other four teams also stood up and saluted the emperor to show their respect for the emperor of the Star Luo Empire.

In addition to the guards who served as the guard of honor, the emperor of the Xing Luo Empire was surrounded by four old men.

Each of these four old men has a cultivation base at the Titled Douluo level and is a powerful figure in the Xingluo Empire's Worship Hall.

This is the Xing Luo Empire demonstrating its authority and strength to all forces participating in the competition, especially the Sun and Moon Empire, which has always been ready to make a move.

Then, the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire stepped onto the stage and gave a brief pre-match speech.

An old Titled Douluo said to the rest area of ​​the four teams, "Please invite the captains of the four teams to come on stage and draw lots."

As the old man spoke, a shocking yet somewhat strange pressure instantly spread out, causing the civilians who were originally cheering to involuntarily quiet down.

Huo Yuhao looked at the old man on the stage through the Eye of Truth, thinking: "This is Tiansha Douluo. His martial spirit is strange, but it seems that the composition of his martial spirit is indeed a bit strange."

Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxu, whose martial soul is Tiansha Guxing, is known to be the nemesis of relatives and friends, and is destined to be lonely all his life. At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of the players of each participating force, he is also the chief referee of the semi-finals and finals.

Rumor has it that on the day his martial soul awakened, his mother died of hemorrhage, and when he was eight years old, his father also died tragically. After that, there were countless other bad news, and eventually he lost all his relatives and friends.

His martial soul should be a mutation of some kind of star martial soul. It cannot be said to be a benign mutation, because Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxu affects the people around him because of his martial soul. He usually lives in seclusion and the price he pays is not small.

And if it is a malignant mutation, it is even more out of the question. After all, strength is king in this world. With the cultivation of a level 91 Titled Douluo, he can use the star power to defend against a level 95 Super Douluo. The strength of the Tiansha Guxing martial spirit can also be seen.

According to Huo Yuhao's analysis and observation with his True Eye, it seemed that due to the influence of his martial spirit, the human magnetic field of this Tiansha Douluo seemed to be completely different from that of a normal person, and was also more aggressive.

Moreover, due to the characteristics of the martial soul, it is somehow connected with the stars in the sky, which makes the human magnetic field of Tiansha Douluo appear even more strange. Huo Yuhao, who has not done much research on this, can only see this much.

It's just that in this world, the existence of the Tiansha Guxing martial spirit seems so unique.

It even seems that he has touched upon some higher level, but due to the lack of exploration by his predecessors, this Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxu may never have the chance to reach the level of Super Douluo in his lifetime.

However, the opponent now seemed to be able to consciously suppress the mutations brought about by his own martial soul, and this might be the reason why he was able to join the Xingluo Empire's Worship Hall even though he had killed all his relatives and friends in his early years.

After all, according to the rumors about the other party in his early years, in addition to his relatives, there were also many friends who died inexplicably.

Therefore, compared to others who have already seen most of the methods, Huo Yuhao's True Eye now focuses all of his attention on this Tiansha Douluo and the other person.

That is the captain of the Xingluo National Academy team, Xu Jiujiu.

The spirit star crown is the same as that of Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxu. It also relies on the power of starlight, but it is more stable. Huo Yuhao can get a lot of new inspiration and enlightenment from Xu Jiujiu through the Eye of Truth.

However, at this time, the captains representing the four teams have already stood on the stage.

They are Gong Yangmo from Shrek Academy, Ma Rulong from Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Jiang Peng from Di Ao Academy, and Xu Jiujiu from Xingluo National Academy.

Under the gaze of four Titled Douluo, the four of them walked in front of the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire.

Emperor Xing Luo smiled slightly and said, "I am very happy to meet all of you young talents. I hope you can complete this competition with the principle of friendship first and competition second."

"Later I will throw out four balls with their signatures written on them, and you will grab them at the same time."

The four of them said that they were ready, and then almost no one noticed how the Xingluo Emperor made his move. They only saw four balls of golden light rising into the air at the same time.

Unlike the other three who were competing with each other with their own skills, Xu Jiujiu just waited for the last ball to fall before leisurely reaching out to take it.

"I am number one." Xu Jiujiu looked at the ball in his hand and then spoke.

"Number one." Jiang Peng from Dio Academy also spoke up.

For this semi-final, the draw rule is that teams with the same number will compete in the same division.

The remaining Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy are naturally number two.

It may be because it is different from the original novel, and it is the weaker auxiliary soul master Gong Yangmo who comes on stage to compete, or it may be due to some other reasons.

In short, this time, Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, which were supposed to face off in the finals, now meet in the semi-finals.

All the Shrek members in the audience had solemn expressions. After all, the strength of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy was probably the strongest among the other three teams.

The rules of the semi-finals still follow the previous knockout rules and are still held over two days, but this competition is a little different from before.

You must win both games to qualify. If both teams win one game each, they will need to play a 223 tiebreaker, with two wins in three games.

In order to increase the difficulty, the final is held in just one day, unlike the semi-finals which are held over two days. This will test the sustained combat capability and endurance of both teams.

"It's not a bad thing that we met the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy this time." Wang Yan comforted everyone, "If we met in the finals, the Sun Moon Empire would definitely have provided all the members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy with milk bottles."

"We will definitely not have the advantage over them in a long-term battle, and if we can eliminate them here, then our biggest rival will also disappear, and the upcoming finals will be easier."

"And this time we drew number two, which means we have two days of rest. During these two days, everyone should seize the opportunity to maintain their strength and strive to defeat the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy in the best condition!" Upon hearing this, everyone nodded and agreed with what Wang Yan said.

But at this time Wang Yan was secretly having a headache, because there was a Soul Emperor in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, and the only Soul Emperor in his own team, Ma Xiaotao, was in a very unstable condition.

Should we send her into battle? What impact will it have if we send her into battle?

Wang Yan sighed. He was quite conflicted at the moment, but the team battle between the Xingluo National Academy team and the Di'ao Academy team had already begun on the stage.

This competition is different from the previous ones, and Wang Yan had some guesses about Xu Jiujiu's appearance.

After all, the change of royal power in the Xingluo Empire has also had a significant impact on the history of the continent.

As a scholar, he naturally knew what the inherited martial spirit of the Xu family, the current royal family of the Xingluo Empire, was.

If that is really the case, even if they can defeat the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy next, for everyone in Shrek Academy, the Star Luo National Academy team in the finals will still be a big problem.

The two-day battle between the Xingluo Empire and the Diao Academy passed quickly.

Although Jiang Peng, the captain of Di Ao Academy, was very powerful, they were directly crushed by Xu Jiujiu who possessed the Star Crown Martial Spirit in the arrangement of team battles.

The Star Crown Martial Spirit is famous, but the Xu family, the royal family of the Star Luo Empire, has always kept a low profile. However, today's display has made everyone recall the Star Crown Sect that once dominated the Douluo Continent.

With powerful and comprehensive auxiliary combat capabilities, and the ability to rely on star power to bless martial souls, he can unleash the power of soul skills that surpass his current realm. In this team battle, it can only be said that the loss of Di Ao Academy was not unfair.

The following individual competition is even simpler. Although the Xingluo National Academy team does not have a Soul Emperor-level powerhouse, they have the national strength of a country and Xu Jiujiu's identity.

The Di'ao Academy, which originated from the Tianhun Empire and was the most hostile to soul guides and unwilling to use soul guides, was directly defeated by the Xingluo National Academy team.

It is true that the Soul Emperor is good at fighting, but this is not a one-man battle, and Jiang Peng’s strength is not enough to defeat seven opponents by himself when they are being used against soul guides.

In the end, after Jiang Peng defeated the first three people sent by the Xingluo National Academy team alone, he was finally defeated.

The players after him were even more unable to compete with the Xingluo National Academy team, and finally the Xingluo National Academy team successfully advanced to the finals.

Xinghuang Hotel, conference room.

Wang Yan is making the final tactical arrangements. Tomorrow will be the match between Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

However, unlike before, Ma Xiaotao, who had always acted on her own since the start of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, also came to the meeting room.

Next to her was her good friend Gong Yang Mo. It was obvious that it was under Gong Yang Mo's persuasion that Ma Xiaotao did not do anything out of the ordinary this time.

This was also what Wang Yan asked Gong Yang Mo to do, and in the end he decided to send Ma Xiaotao to fight.

After all, Ma Xiaotao's combat power was too strong, and the pressure from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy was too severe, so he had to be cautious.

"The first game tomorrow will be a team battle, which is very beneficial for soul masters." Wang Yan's face was calm.

"So my plan is that everyone should retain as much strength as possible in this competition, and then save it for the individual elimination match the day after tomorrow."

"The soul masters of the Sun-Moon Empire are accustomed to using various drugs to increase their own strength, but because of this, most of them have weak soul power and are weaker than soul masters of the same level."

"The quality of their martial souls is relatively low, and their soul skills are mostly based on increasing soul power. Only by relying on soul guides can they compete with the strong men from other countries."

"Soul guides do have an advantage among low-level soul masters, but we are different from ordinary soul masters."

"We are Shrek Academy. Every one of our students is an elite among the elites."

"They are very powerful among their peers. In a fair fight, the people from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy will never be a match for any of you."

Everyone nodded upon hearing this. Huo Yuhao also understood where Wang Yan’s confidence came from. However, what Wang Yan didn’t know was that when the three kingdoms of the Douluo Continent were making progress, the Sun Moon Empire was also making progress.

The gap in the quality of soul masters themselves has already been narrowed through the Sun-Moon Empire's continuous catch-up over thousands of years.

The idea that soul masters of the older generation insist on, that soul engineers have weak combat power, is no longer realistic. It’s just that the Sun-Moon Empire has always been hiding its strength.

"I won't go into too much detail on the tactics for the individual elimination rounds."

"Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, Xixi, you will lead the first three games." Wang Yan frowned slightly, then gritted his teeth and said, "You must eliminate as many of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy's combat forces as possible in the individual elimination rounds."

"Only in this way can we gain more advantages in the subsequent 223 competition system."

"In the next two-two-three competition, Ma Xiaotao and Gong Yangmo, you two will form a group. You two are the strongest, so I won't give you too many instructions."

"Xixi, Beibei, both of your martial spirits have lightning attributes, and one of you is a strong attack and the other is a quick attack. You two should form a team and pay attention to the coordination between your attributes."

"The last three people will form a team, Xu Sanshi, Ling Luochen, and Jiang Nannan. You three will form a team and make sure to buy time for Ling Luochen. You must drag down the people of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy!"

"Okay, Teacher Wang." Gong Yangmo nodded and understood what Wang Yan meant.

Beibei also nodded and said yes.

"The team battle lineup is still arranged according to the previous 16-to-8 arrangement." Wang Yan looked at Ma Xiaotao with a little worry in his eyes.

Ma Xiaotao replied indifferently: "Well, I will pay attention to it."

Just like that, after the meeting, everyone went back and adjusted their own status, and soon welcomed the team battle on the second day.

The sun is shining and the weather is clear.

In this competition, both sides are very popular, but the Shrek Academy has a good reputation, while the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy has a bad reputation.

After all, thousands of years of education have made the hostile thinking towards the Sun-Moon Empire deeply rooted in the hearts of every citizen of the three kingdoms that originally belonged to Douluo Continent.
