Chapter 651 Extra Chapter 71
A month and a half later.
The opening ceremony of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, the [Tian Dou Empire] Division, held a grand opening ceremony in "Tian Dou City".
As a grand event held every five years in Douluo Continent, although it was only held three times before, its influence is no longer limited to soul masters. It can be said to cover all aspects from the royal family, nobles to civilians.
As for the Tiandou Great Soul Fighting Arena, which is the venue for the opening ceremony and qualifiers, it stopped all fighting spirit competitions one month in advance, and carried out internal renovations, integrating all sub-events in the Great Soul Fighting Arena with the main battle arena. The soul center merged into one, forming an extremely huge playing field.
After renovation, except for the VIP area that remains on the north side of the competition venue, the entire Grand Fighting Arena can accommodate 80,000 spectators to watch the competition at the same time.
The rising sun is rising, and the light golden light is falling, coating "Tian Dou City" with a layer of splendor.
Under the watchful eyes of the city defense troops who maintained order along the way, a sea of people gathered in the Tiandou Great Soul Fighting Arena, making the huge "Tiandou City" look empty.
"Wow, there are so many people——!"
At the entrance of the Great Soul Fighting Field, among a group of boys and girls wearing the luxurious school uniforms of [Tian Dou Royal Academy], a chubby boy with short red hair turned his round head, looking left and right, and couldn't help but He sighed with emotion.
Next to him, a young man with a handsome face and peach blossom eyes couldn't help but remind him: "Fat man, pay attention to your image, so many people are watching-"
"Ah?" Upon hearing this, the red-haired boy glanced at the surrounding crowd with his small eyes. The girls, who were all different in height, short, fat, and thin, but were all young and beautiful, immediately lit up, coughed lightly, and shook their heads. Put on a serious look.
At the front of the team, the leader with glasses, the middle-aged man, noticed the little incident here, but didn't take it seriously. He smiled and said to the teenagers around him: "Everyone behave well and show your best attitude."
"Except for the nobles who want to recruit soul masters, most of the people who came to watch the game today are those who are recruiting brides for their children of the right age at home."
"You must know that the total number of registered soul masters in the entire continent does not exceed six figures. Students like you who can represent the advanced soul master academy in the competition are definitely the leaders in the contemporary soul master world!"
"Don't forget, one of the restrictions of this competition is that only those under the age of twenty-five can participate——"
"As long as your performance is impressive enough, there will be nobles and soul master families competing for it. Those noble daughters and outstanding female soul masters can dazzle you..."
"Really?" Hearing the words of the middle-aged man with glasses, the red-haired boy shone brightly, and his slightly childish face showed a greasy and vulgar smile that was not suitable for his age.
But the young man with peach blossom eyes who reminded him before glanced at the beautiful girl two feet away next to him and said firmly: "I am not a half-hearted person. If I find someone right, I will definitely do it." Stick to it!”
The beautiful girl turned a deaf ear to the boy's almost straightforward words. Her beautiful willow leaves frowned slightly. Although she looked a little childish, her face, which was already stunningly beautiful for the first time, was a little distracted at this time.
"Rongrong~"
Next to her, a girl with delicate features, slender limbs, and a proud mind noticed the strangeness of the beautiful girl, and whispered comfortingly: "Still thinking about what happened to the two previous crown princes?"
"..." When the beautiful girl named Rongrong heard this, a faint mist appeared in her eyes, and she said "hmm" with a slightly thick nasal voice.
Then, he said softly: "It has been more than a year since I ran away from the sect. When I returned to the sect some time ago, I only saw my father, not even Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Bones. Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Bones love me the most. When they heard that I was returning to the sect, they didn’t even come to see me..."
"The two grandpas finally came to [Tian Dou Royal Academy] a few days ago. I thought they were here to see me. Who knew... They actually talked and laughed with that Dugu Yan, and only said a few words to me. …”
"Also, Zhuqing, it's not just Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Bones, I feel... my dad seems weird too..."
While the two girls were communicating in low voices, the people who were the deputy team members of the [Tian Dou Royal Academy] came to a spacious rest area. The change in environment caused the two women to remain silent and raise their eyes to observe.
I saw that there were already seven or eight teams in the venue, which was divided into areas and had thousands of seats in total.
These, presumably, are teams from the higher soul master academies of various provinces in the [Tian Dou Empire].
"Today is the opening ceremony, there is only one game."
Flanders, a middle-aged man with glasses who had managed to clean up his image, glanced around at the various teams watching him and others, and said confidently to the students around him: "And this competition is made up of Let’s draw an opponent for the first round of the round robin.”
"With your strength, you can easily win this team battle spirit that is somewhat of a performance..."
After a pause, Flanders ignored the other college members who had ugly expressions after hearing his words, and nodded towards Zhao Wuji: "Old Zhao, please watch, I will do the final treatment for these little guys. Registration confirmation~"
When Zhao Wuji heard this, he nodded and said, "Go ahead~"
"Who did I think was so loud? It turned out to be you country bumpkins. What? Did you join the [Tian Dou Royal Academy]?"
At this moment, a strange voice came from not far away, causing Zhao Wuji and others to look at him angrily.
However, when they saw the team where the speaker was, Zhao Wuji and others looked a little weird.
There was an acquaintance across the street, more than one, but there were some differences between acquaintances and acquaintances.
First of all, this is a college team that also comes to compete. Zhao Wuji, Dai Mubai and others all remembered the name of the academy. It was the "Canghui Academy" they met in the hotel in the market town outside the forest when they went to the "Star Dou Forest" to hunt for the third soul ring for Oscar.
The person who spoke and the person standing next to him were both students from [Canghui Academy] who had a conflict outside the "Star Dou Forest".
In addition to these two acquaintances, there were three familiar faces in the opposite team.
"Agao!"
Just when the person who had made a strange noise before was about to say something again, one of the three familiar faces gave him a sideways look and immediately stopped the other person.
Then, this familiar face took the two familiar faces around him and walked towards Zhao Wuji and others.
"I'm sorry, Teacher Zhao, my team member was rude, I'm so sorry~"
Seeing the humble and courteous behavior of the familiar face, before Zhao Wuji could speak, Dai Mubai, who was standing next to him, glanced at him with a frown and said in a deep voice, "I remember you, when we were in the Sunset Forest..."
After a pause, his demonic eyes turned to the other two people: "And you two."
In response, the three familiar faces looked as usual. The leader smiled slightly and introduced himself: "I am Jun Jiuge, and these two are my teammates, Jiang Liuer and Huang Lingyu."
"I have seen your moves in "Sunset Forest" before, and I am looking forward to meeting you in the next game."
