Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 160 Follow the Plan
The next day, the morning sun shone on every corner of Xingluo City, and the golden light illuminated this passionate land.

Countless spectators had already gathered around Xingluo Square, more than twice as many as the initial elimination round.

Amid the cheers of the audience, the four teams entered Xingluo Square one after another. When the last team from Shrek Academy came out, the cheers and passionate atmosphere of the surrounding audience reached a climax, and the sound seemed to shatter the entire sky.

However, amid the thunderous cheers of the audience, the gazes of the four teams were like swords colliding in the air, and in the blink of an eye, a solemn and murderous feeling was brought to the air.

However, with a loud voice,

"Your Majesty has arrived——"

The solemn atmosphere disappeared at this moment.

Everyone's eyes were cast on the ten-meter-wide red carpet that stretched from the imperial city gate to the front of the fighting arena.

"Squeak-"

At this moment, the gates of the imperial palace were wide open.

The Emperor of the Xing Luo Empire, Xu Jiawei, surrounded by palace guards and protected by four Titled Douluo masters, strode out of the gate of the imperial palace and headed straight towards the competition stage.

"Long live, long live, long live——"

The soldiers who were responsible for maintaining order raised their weapons at this moment and cheered "Long live the people of the square!" together with all the people in the square.
Around the fighting arena, the 108 soul masters responsible for protection also bowed to the emperor. At this moment, the contestants from the four participating academies also stood up and saluted.

After Xu Jiawei stepped onto the fighting arena, he faced Xingluo Square and raised his arms, "My people, please stand up."

"Long live--"

With overwhelming response, the people stood up like a surging tide.

The noisy sound echoed throughout the Xingluo Square.

Xu Jiawei did not try to stop the noise, but just looked at the people in the distance with a calm look and a smile on his face.

He smiled and said, "The All-Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is a grand event held every five years in our Douluo Continent. It is finally held again in our Xingluo Empire. This is the first time since I ascended the throne, and I am deeply honored. Here, I would like to thank the college teams from various countries for presenting us with wonderful games, allowing us to see the development of the continent and let me and the people have fun together."

"Today is the beginning of the semi-finals and the final draw. I will personally preside over this. I hope the four colleges can show their due demeanor in this final stage."

"I also wish that our Xingluo Empire will prosper forever!"

After he finished speaking, the roaring cheers came again! Everyone's sense of honor also reached its peak at this moment!
At this time, among the four old men who followed Xu Jiawei onto the stage, the one in the front left took two steps across, facing the rest area, and said in a deep voice: "Please invite the captains of the four teams to come on stage and draw lots."

An indescribable powerful aura suddenly burst out from the old man. The astonishing pressure even made everyone in Xingluo Square feel as if the sky had darkened.

He was apparently trying to intimidate some evil spirits in the dark.

This person is Huang Jinxu, who is also known as Tiansha. He will replace Cheng Gang as the referee for the next match.

At the same time, in the rest area below the stage.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

Wang Yan was frowning, looking thoughtful.

Because at the war opening meeting yesterday, Chen Junting proposed a method. However, the premise of this method is to replace a Soul Sect with a Soul King. But it is precisely because of this method that he is so entangled and has not yet decided.

"Teacher Wang Yan, this is a good deal. As long as the opponent in the semi-finals is not from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, then it will work."

Chen Junting looked calm, as if he had anticipated Teacher Wang Yan's final choice. "Once we win the semifinals, there will only be the finals. At that time, Senior Xu will not be able to go on stage at all, and this method will be useless. It would be better to let Senior Xu replace the opponent's core in the semifinals. In this way, Senior Ma Xiaotao and Senior Dai Yuheng can still retain a small part of their strength and wait until the finals to give Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy a head-on blow."

These words touched Wang Yan's heart. He looked at Xu Sanshi and said, "If that's the case, can you do this, Xu Sanshi?"

"rest assured."

Xu Sanshi patted his chest and said, "Leave it to me, Old Xu."

"Okay." Hearing this, Wang Yan nodded with satisfaction.

"Then proceed according to this plan."

At this time, the captains of the four college teams had already arrived at the fighting arena. But everyone who had participated in the Starlight Auction widened their eyes in surprise at this moment. Because the auctioneer Jiujiu was actually the captain of the Xingluo Royal Team!

"Princess Xu Jiujiu is actually the captain."

Offstage, Wang Yan looked at Dai Yuheng in surprise. Dai Yuheng also looked thoughtful and nodded.

"From an age point of view, Her Royal Highness the Princess also meets the requirements."

"That's it..."

Wang Yan frowned slightly, looking thoughtful.

"Then the Xingluo Royal Family's martial spirit is..."

"It's the Star Crown."

Just as Wang Yan was thinking, Chen Junting suddenly spoke.

"Ten thousand years ago, one of the six great spirits on the Spirit Hall's Pope's Order was the Star Crown, a spirit comparable to our sect's Seven Killing Swords, Clear Sky Sect's Clear Sky Hammer, and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. And according to rumors, the Star Crown spirit's special auxiliary function is not inferior to our sect's Seven Treasure Glazed Tower spirit to some extent."

"Little Brother Chen is right."

Dai Yueheng said: "I am sure that if there is a Star Crown Martial Spirit in the Xingluo team, that person will definitely be the core."

Wang Dong on the side scratched his head, puzzled.

"Is it because of the royal family?"

"Of course not." Dai Yuheng shook his head. "Although I don't know the true power of the Star Crown Martial Spirit, my father admires it very much. This is definitely not based on status."

"As expected."

Wang Yan nodded slightly and gave instructions to Xu Sanshi who was standing beside him.

"In that case, if our opponent in the semi-finals is Team Xingluo, then you will replace Princess Jiujiu."

"Hee hee hee--"

Xu Sanshi couldn't help but let out a sly smile, patted his chest and immediately promised, "Don't worry, Mr. Wang, leave it to me."

Just at this moment, four balls of golden light rose into the air at the same time.

Everyone's attention was instantly attracted.

Ma Xiaotao, who had been waiting for a long time, took the lead and got the first golden ball. The captain of Diao Academy and Ma Rulong followed closely and got two of them.

As for a long time,
He calmly caught the last one.

Ma Xiaotao flipped over his palm and said in a deep voice, "Number one." Then, he fixed his eyes on Xu Jiujiu's hand.

Because her golden ball also had a "1" printed on it. This also represented her opponent in the first semi-final.

Shrek Academy VS Xingluo Royal Academy.

Offstage, Wang Yan saw this scene and whispered.

"Follow the plan."
