Chapter 172: The Exotic Beast Academy of the Barak Kingdom, Di Tian.
Three days later, the capital of the Tiandou Empire, Tiandou City.
In the early morning, the golden glow of the morning spreads over the majestic outline of Tiandou City, highlighting the grandeur and majesty of this royal city.
The opening ceremony of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition and the Tiandou Empire Division was held in Tiandou City.
As the most grand soul master competition in the soul master world, it attracts not only the attention of soul masters, but also everyone in Tiandou City, from the royal family, nobles to common people, regards this competition as the grandest festival.
The opening ceremony was held in the Tiandou Soul Arena in Tiandou City. As early as a month ago, tickets for the opening ceremony had been sold out. You must know that the price of these tickets is the same as the admission price of the main fighting spirit center of Tiandou Grand Fighting Arena.
As the main arena of the Tiandou Division, the Tiandou Grand Soul Fighting Arena had stopped all soul fighting matches three days ago and started internal renovations, combining all the sub-arenas in the Grand Soul Fighting Arena with the main soul fighting center to form an enormous competition venue.
In addition to the VIP area remaining on the north side of the entire competition venue, the renovated Grand Fighting Arena can also accommodate 80,000 spectators at the same time. Although the revenue from ticket sales is considerable, the Great Soul Fighting Arena itself also pays quite a lot.
In the next period of time, all Tiandou division qualifiers will be held here.
The renovated Tiandou Grand Soul Arena has already welcomed a huge audience. The audience came so early, of course, not to be able to enter the venue early, because each ticket has a special seat number. They came so that they could see the participating young soul masters up close on the first day of the opening ceremony.
Among them, there are many young girls. According to the statistics of the Spirit Hall, the total number of soul masters in the whole continent does not exceed 100,000. And the students who can represent the Advanced Soul Master Academy to participate in the competition are the best among them. And with the age limit of 25, they will undoubtedly become the most ideal dream lover in the hearts of the girls. If you can marry a powerful soul master, it will definitely be a good thing to gain both fame and fortune.
Even some nobles who had purchased tickets to the VIP area were gathering outside at this time. The nobles were always happy to recruit soul masters.
The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition itself is the cradle of talents. Not to mention those who can achieve certain results, even the students who participate in the competition are the targets of competition among nobles and families.
At this time, with the Tiandou Great Soul Arena as the center, almost one-third of Tiandou City was a scene of empty streets. Since a few days ago, all hotels of all levels in Tiandou City have been fully booked. The population in the city has increased by almost 50%. This shows how much this continent-wide advanced soul master college elite competition attracts people.
For this competition, Tiandou City mobilized a full 10,000 troops to maintain order, thus avoiding stampedes and riots as much as possible.
This year marks the third Continental Soul Master Elite Competition. The first champion was the Xing Luo Empire, and the second was the Wuhun Hall. Perhaps because it has only been held a few times, even the hotels need to be found by the teachers of the major academies themselves. Fortunately, the Blue Tyrant Academy is already in Tiandou City, so it doesn't have to go through as much trouble as the foreign academies.
Under the leadership of Liu Erlong, the people representing Lan Ba Academy entered the Tian Dou Soul Fighting Arena. All the participating teams were dressed in bright and fancy clothes, and Qian Renxue and her group were no exception. Today they were wearing the platinum school uniforms that Dou Dou had designed himself.
In her words, the captain looked particularly good in platinum clothes, which was unanimously agreed by the other team members and Liu Erlong, and the original azure blue school uniform was changed to platinum.
At this time, the Blue Tyrant Academy group was in the rest area of the main arena that was specially provided for participating academies. They were not the first to enter, but they were not the last to arrive here. There were more than a thousand seats in the wide rest area, divided into different areas, so that each soul master academy could rest and wait.
Although there were not as many people here as outside, after the contestants from the Advanced Soul Master Academy entered, the people from the Blue Tyrant Academy became the focus. Although Liu Erlong had found a corner for them, they were still noticed by many people.
"Is that blonde girl the new captain of Blue Bully Academy?"
"I heard she's very strong, but I don't know if it's true or not."
"Look at where they are sitting. Wu Yu is scared. It should be true."
"Why are there only seven people? Don't they have any backup?"
Doudou poked Wu Yu's cheek and said, "Did you hear that, Big Sister? Some people say you are afraid of the captain."
Wu Yu snorted coldly and impatiently shook off her hand. "It's none of their business! They are just a bunch of wimps. If they have the guts, come and talk to me!"
Liu Erlong looked at Wu Yu with some satisfaction. This child was exactly what she wanted in terms of both personality and martial spirit. If she hadn't been unwilling, she would have accepted her as her disciple long ago.
Looking at Qian Renxue who was resting with her eyes closed, Liu Erlong suddenly said, "Okay, I'm going to do the final registration confirmation. The opening ceremony is about to begin, so get ready to enter. Tianlin, you just need to lead everyone in. I'll go first. Don't embarrass Blue Tyrant Academy! Now it's your academy too! Do you hear me?"
"Ah."
Under the curious or surprised gazes of the crowd, Qian Renxue responded calmly.
Then, Liu Erlong got up and left the rest area.
At this stage, each college also needs a teacher to conduct the final registration confirmation. Once the status of the participating students is registered, students cannot be added or replaced in future competitions.
Shangguan Tian, who had just come out of the infirmary, was sitting upright with his head lowered, his body shaking uncontrollably.
What did the dean just say? Tianlin Hey, hey, hey, it can't be the Yu Tianlin he was thinking of, right?
"Everyone, I don't make any demands on the six of you. I will take care of everything."
Qian Renxue slowly opened her eyes and looked at everyone calmly. In her crystal clear deep purple eyes, there seemed to be a flash of brilliant golden light, bewitching people's minds.
Chi Yucan put his hand on Shangguan Tian's shoulder, asking him to calm down a little and not be too nervous.
However, after hearing Qian Renxue's words, in addition to a sense of inexplicable relief, a trace of unwillingness flashed in Chi Yucan's eyes. They were completely underestimated by the captain.
Han Chenyu stretched out his hand to lift his bangs and said calmly, "Oh, the preliminaries? How boring."
However, the slight curve in the corners of his mouth revealed the excitement and anticipation in his heart.
Dou Dou clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention.
"Well, captain, you don't have to do anything in today's preliminaries. We are enough! You are our hidden trump card! And today is the opening ceremony. Tiandou Royal Academy's first team has a bye. There is only an exhibition match for Tiandou Royal Academy's second team. In order to show the authority of the empire, they will probably only play the weak ones. And as captain, we have two soul masters, so they may not dare to choose us."
Doudou said mysteriously, "The students of Tiandou Royal Academy are divided into three levels. The first level is Tianwei level for the newly enrolled students and those with a strength of less than level 25. The second level is Tianzhi level for those between level 25 and 30. Those above level 30 enter the highest level, Tiandou level." "Captain, according to the gossip I heard, all the deputy team members of Tiandu Royal Academy are Tiandou level students, and their strongest captain is only about level 36. Our team is much stronger than them."
"Ah."
Qian Renxue nodded. She found that the gossips from these students were quite accurate, sometimes even faster than the news from the academy's top brass.
Mo Xiangran is an auxiliary-type ink pen soul master, and his soul power level has reached level thirty-six. Except for Dou Dou, who goes to the soul fighting arena to work almost every day and is only level thirty-five, the rest are stronger than the captain of the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy.
The competition staff quickly entered the rest area and organized the already arrived students to enter.
Soon, it was the turn of Blue Bull Academy. A female staff member came over and her eyes lit up when she saw Dou Dou. The two greeted each other and it seemed that they were friends who met at work.
"Dear honorable soul masters, please follow me."
Then, the woman led them into the entrance passage.
Surrounding the huge and open square were countless shouting and cheering spectators. Directly in front of the central venue is a rostrum with a golden background. Behind the rostrum is the renovated VIP area.
The wide venue was over 150 meters in diameter, and the colleges that entered earlier had already lined up in a neat formation in the center of the venue. When each college entered, there was a dedicated emcee on the rostrum holding a soul guide to introduce and explain, which was also Doudou's daily job.
"Now entering are the contestants from Blue Tyrant Academy! The lovely and charming Miss Dou Dou! By the way, Miss Dou Dou is also a staff member of our Tian Dou Grand Arena! And their captain is a mysterious genius who joined Blue Tyrant Academy at the last minute! She replaced the star contestant of the Grand Arena, Red Dragon Wu Yu, and became the ultimate dark horse captain of Blue Tyrant Academy! It is said that when she first entered the school, she confronted a seven-ring strongman and did not lose -!"
What surprised Qian Renxue was that, according to the introduction, there were actually various soul guides for broadcasting set up on the scene, with more than a hundred of them, magnifying the figures of the soul masters on the huge screen in real time.
Is there such a thing in the Great Fighting Spirit Arena? What a strange technological development.
Players who are somewhat famous in the Tiandou Soul Fighting Arena all have more or less home advantage. When the emcee introduces the academy, he will also deliberately blow up various rumors about the major academies. Therefore, it is easy to make money in the position of emcee. In order to gain fame, the major academies always have to give gifts such as gold soul coins.
Listening to the words of the host on the stage, the audience in the stands cheered and screamed one after another. Qian Renxue's appearance was really too eye-catching.
In addition to them, there are the main force of the first-ranked Tiandou Royal Academy, the second-ranked Monster Academy from the Barak Kingdom, and the Xingluo Royal Academy.
In addition to Yu Tianheng, the captain of the Tiandou Royal Team, who was staring at Qian Renxue, the captain of the Monster Academy was someone Qian Renxue was quite concerned about.
This team swaggered to take the position of the seed team Xingluo Royal Academy. Most of its members were strong and dignified. The most interesting thing was that, except for the slender girl in light blue clothes and a veil, everyone else had some animal characteristics.
In addition to that girl, the most eye-catching was a beautiful girl with short light green hair and strange ears on her head. Those were not human ears, but pointed little ears similar to those of a cat. Under the gaze of everyone, her ears turned slightly red.
There was a hint of fear in his different colored eyes, one blue and one green, and he tightly grasped the sleeve of the veiled woman beside him.
In Qian Renxue's perception, these strange-looking people were not the so-called hundred thousand year soul beasts incarnated, but were genuine humans, mutated humans caused by the awakening of their martial souls.
Through the silk veil, Qian Renxue could see that the veiled girl's hair color was a strange pale blue.
Interesting, the Exotic Beast Academy is worthy of its name. Is this the idea of the auspicious beast?
Finally, all participating academies entered the venue, and the team from Blue Bully Academy ranked fourth among all teams.
This large fighting soul arena is undoubtedly the largest in Tiandou City, with a grandstand that can accommodate 80,000 spectators. It is decorated with a silver background. Although it is morning, there are special soul guides hanging around it for lighting, giving people a feeling of not only luxury, but also grandeur.
Qian Renxue looked up at the VIP seats. In addition to a few familiar faces, she indeed found a figure that surprised her.
One of them is an old man with a sunflower spirit embroidered on his chest and a crown on his head. The sunflower is the inherited spirit of the Barak royal family. There is no doubt that he is the king of the Barak Kingdom. Next to the old man sits a heroic man with black hair and golden eyes. Two strands of golden hair fall from his forehead. He is the beast god of the ferocious beasts - Di Tian.
The ferocious beasts did indeed have a deal with the Barak Kingdom.
Di Tian had been looking calmly at the veiled woman in the audience. Suddenly, Di Tian noticed Qian Renxue's gaze. Their eyes met. The dark golden pupils seemed to contain tremendous ferocity, but Qian Renxue was not affected at all. Her deep purple eyes were calm. Instead, she smiled and nodded slightly.
Di Tian's pupils shrank, and he was slightly surprised. "This familiar aura? How could it be her?"
She, a strong person who is at least a Super Douluo, came to participate in this kind of competition? A Super Douluo who is less than 25 years old? What a monster! Humans are really a terrifying species. Di Tian was more and more fortunate in his heart. Fortunately, it was not only the Red King who secretly protected the auspicious beast today, but he was also here.
King Barak looked at Di Tian with some curiosity. It was rare for such an invincible and powerful person to be surprised! Was there another powerful person showing up?
He took Di Tian's hand and asked enthusiastically, "Did you run into an old acquaintance?"
Thinking of the auspicious beast, Di Tian suppressed his disdain for humans and softened his expression, "It's okay, Your Majesty, don't worry. With me here, I don't think she can cause any trouble on her own."
King Barak nodded with satisfaction and patted Di Tian's hand affectionately. Di Tian did not reveal his identity as a Titled Douluo. Sitting next to Emperor Xue Ye, he already believed in Di Tian's loyalty.
His Barak Kingdom now has many powerful Title Douluo! He dares to be tough when he meets people from the Spirit Hall! If it weren't for the Spirit Hall's rule that Title Douluo cannot attack ordinary soldiers, and he was afraid of angering them and triggering the miracle of the Angel God, he would have started a rebellion long ago!
After all, without a Titled Douluo, the million-strong army of the Heaven Dou Empire is indeed difficult to deal with, and killing too many people would also harm the harmony of heaven.
There were also three teaching committee members from Tiandou Royal Academy. They were all sitting in the second row of the VIP seats, looking at Yu Tianheng in the field with proud and kind eyes. This child Tianheng was not only the future of the empire, but also their everything!
There were only three people in the first row of the VIP seats.
In the center, there was a man wearing a golden red robe, a golden diamond crown, and a face like an ancient moon. He looked much older than Prince Xuexing who was killed by Qian Renxue, and there was a bit of similarity between their eyebrows. The difference was that this man's demeanor was far beyond that of Prince Xuexing. Although he looked a little old, he sat there, giving people a sense of origin, as if everything around him was centered around him.
Even the King of the Barak Kingdom has to sit in the second row, so the identity of the person in the center of the first row is obvious. Apart from His Majesty the Emperor of the Tiandou Empire, who else can sit in this position?
On the left side of Emperor Xue Ye sat an old man who was even older than him. He was covered in a bright red robe, with a five-pointed white gold crown on his head. His eyes were slightly closed, as if he was asleep. His shoulders were narrow and his body was thin like a javelin.
