Chapter 144 Soul Saint Zhong Ding Show
"What's wrong with you? It seems... a lot like what those adventurers in the Notting Guild call 'pretending to be deep'."
Suddenly, Xiao Wu imitated Romantina, clamped her legs together, and hugged her shoulders. "Are you playing hard to get? Let me make it clear first, I have no feelings for you."
"What are you thinking about?" Zhou Qing rolled his eyes. "You look so ordinary, I don't have any feelings for you."
"What the hell-"
Xiao Wu was so ashamed and angry that she was about to take action when she saw Zhou Qing had already run a distance away. She immediately chased after him like a rabbit about to bite someone, "Just wait for me! I'm going to make you pay for it today!"
······
In the blink of an eye.
Three days passed quietly.
The square in Nottingham was particularly lively on this day.
The mayors of Notting City and Luoxing City appeared at the same time and jointly hosted a friendly match. Moreover, the Xingluo team from the Royal Academy of the Xingluo Empire also came to this small Notting City.
Whether it was the friendly match or the Xingluo Royal Academy, it was all sudden for the residents of Notting City!
But they can only accept it!
Zhou Qing, Tang San, Xiao Wu, Romantina, all the soul masters of the Notting Guild, and most of the teachers and students of Notting College were watching from outside the square.
The leader of the Xingluo Royal Team was an old man with gray beard, but he was in high spirits. He walked straight to the center of the venue. Even the host of Notting City: City Lord Xiao, had to make way for him and even lowered his head, not daring to look him in the eye.
"Humph!"
The old man in charge snorted softly, and invisible sound waves spread throughout the entire square, causing all the soul masters present to feel their blood boiling, so that the noisy atmosphere became silent in an instant.
Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black and black!
Seven soul rings emerged from his body, and the soul power fluctuations of the Soul Saint level were like a tsunami, which made it difficult for everyone present to breathe.
Soul Saint!
It’s actually a Soul Saint!
"I am the leader of the Xingluo Royal Team, Zhong Dingxiu, a level 78 Soul Saint." The old man introduced himself. "This time I am leading the team to Tiandou City to have an exchange with the Tiandou Royal Academy... On the way, I heard that there was unrest here because of soul bones, so I came to investigate. By the way, I hope that you will not stay here too long and go back to your homes to bring peace back to the small town."
All the soul masters were silent, and no one dared to refute.
However, there were some soul masters who felt secretly ashamed.
Only Zhou Qing understood that Zhong Dingxiu was ostensibly for the sake of Notting City's stability, but in fact it sowed the seeds of a greater disaster.
This is because most soul masters must be intimidated by the fighting power of the Soul Saint level!
I agree with it, but I am not convinced.
But facing the Soul Saint, they can't resist, and they can't resist, so this hatred and resentment can only be held against City Lord Xiao, the Lord of Notting. Even as time goes by, the scope of the object of hatred will continue to expand...
The principle is to pick the softest persimmon.
It's the same no matter which world you are in.
Tang San often hung out with Zhou Qing. When he learned that Xingluo was planning to attack Tiandou and understood Darles's purpose, he was not fooled by Zhong Dingxiu's remarks and believed them blindly. Instead, he thought at a similar level to Zhou Qing - Zhong Dingxiu was a smiling man with a dagger hidden behind his smile. If he were to confront him, he would be no match for him.
At this moment, Tang San has already regarded Zhong Dingxiu as an imaginary enemy, but the Soul Saint-level force is obviously not something he can confront head-on at the moment, and if he wants to assassinate him, he has to rely on poison. However, the materials for preparing poisons that can threaten such a strong internal force master cannot be found in Notting City, so he can only hope that there is one or more soul guide core formations on the soul guide crystal that have powerful attack capabilities and can also adapt to common metal materials.
"This friendly match is hosted by this old man."
Zhong Dingxiu got down to business. "My main responsibility is to take the members of the Xingluo Royal Team to the Tiandou Royal College for exchanges. They can only stay here for five days at most. Therefore, this friendly match will be kept simple. The competition mode is a team match, seven-on-seven. Those with less than seven people are not allowed to participate."
"The registration method is also very simple. You will be given one hour to form a team on the spot or have formed a team in advance. If the team has seven people, the captain will step forward and walk into the square. If you exceed one hour, you will be disqualified."
Afterwards, the old man took out a stick of incense from the storage soul guide on his waist and threw it. The tail of the incense stick pierced the ground, and the top of the incense stick rubbed against the air, heating up and igniting, emitting wisps of white smoke.
"Finally, let me tell you about the prizes for the winners. There are two in total."
"The first one is a storage soul guide."
Zhong Dingxiu took out a silver bracelet with ancient patterns on it. One side was thick and the other side was thin, like a crescent moon. There were twelve sesame-sized white jade spots around it. "Each of the jade stones on it has half a cubic meter of storage space. There are twelve in total, which adds up to six cubic meters of space."
The reason why this storage soul guide was taken out was because the storage space on each piece of jade on this storage soul guide was too small, so it was divided into twelve.
For Zhong Dingxiu, it was too complicated.
However, the soul masters outside the venue did not care whether it was easy to take or not. They only knew that it was a storage soul guide and was extremely valuable. Even if they did not use it themselves, they could auction it off and exchange it for wealth that they could not accumulate in most of their lifetime.
"And the second prize is that the final winner will have the opportunity to challenge the members and reserve members of our Tiandou Royal Team."
Zhong Dingxiu said leisurely, "As long as you defeat... No, as long as you have a certain ability that is recognized by any of them, then you can follow us to Tiandou Royal Academy for exchanges. And, after returning to Xingluo Royal Academy, I will report to the dean of the academy so that you can become a part of Xingluo Royal Academy."
This is the so-called opportunity that allows a civilian soul master to enter the aristocratic class in one fell swoop!
Slim chance!
[People from Xingluo come to Tiandou to recruit people, how awesome! 】
[Also, the soul masters in this world have a weak concept of country...]
Zhou Qing secretly complained.
But he also understood that Zhong Dingxiu dared to say this because he believed that no one among the ugly people present would be recognized by the members of the Xingluo Royal Team.
Moreover, if there really are gifted people among these civilian soul masters born in the Tiandou territory, they can indeed choose to join the Xingluo Empire, and others may even envy them.
After all, soul masters, soul masters on Douluo Continent, are all free before they choose to truly join a certain force.
The best embodiment of this point in the original work is Dai Mubai.
This member of the Xingluo royal family can sneak into the Tiandou territory, and eventually represent the Tiandou Empire to compete with the Xingluo Empire and the Wuhun Hall team...
