Douluo Dalu: Seven Kills

Chapter 282 The Competition Begins
But why does this aura seem familiar?

Suddenly, Yan Feng became interested in Gu Tianchen.

But before he could do anything, the major participating teams had already entered the venue one after another. At the same time, under the rostrum on the north side, a team of special soldiers was coming at a very fast speed.

They are dressed in golden clothes and look full of energy and spirit.

Arriving under the rostrum, fifty soul guide turrets surrounded it. The dark and intimidating muzzles coordinated with the different types of soul guides released by other guards to form different formations.

Their military quality and soul guides are not what ordinary soul guide armies have. Even though there are only 500 people, they give people the feeling that they will not be at a disadvantage even if facing an army of people.

This is the Royal Soul Master Corps, one of the core forces of the Sun Moon Empire. It is composed of soul masters above level 5, equipped with the most sophisticated soul guides, and the leader is a level 9 soul master.

This legion only accepts orders from the emperor.

Similarly, escorted by the remaining 500 members of the Royal Soul Guide Corps, Xu Tianran also came, surrounded by officials and guards, riding on a luxurious dragon chariot pulled by thirty-two horned and scaled horses.

The dragon chariot stopped and Xu Tianran slowly revealed his figure.

"wild ambition."

Ning Tian looked at Xu Tianran in the wheelchair and opened her red lips slightly.

With the Royal Soul Master Corps leading the way, ninth-level Soul Master Jing Hongchen as the guards, and a man riding a dragon chariot, if people didn't know that Xu Tianran was still the prince, they would have thought that the old emperor was dead.

"This Xu Tianran is truly a 'filial son'."

Chen Junting sneered, but also gave some praise.

"But to be able to do this is truly the demeanor of an emperor."

At the same time, he glanced behind Xu Tian, ​​but did not see Ju Zi. It seemed that she was indeed dead.

"Meet the Regent."

Except for the Royal Soul Instructor Corps on defense, all the officials present knelt down and saluted Crown Prince Xu Tianran.

With all the officials of the Sun and Moon bowing their heads, a maid pushed Xu Tianran into a soul guide elevator. Jing Hongchen and four other old men also followed him into the elevator.

As the elevator went up, the people in the distance could see their young regent. Cheers suddenly rose one after another, and it was obvious that he was very popular.

There were even shouts of "Long live" from time to time.

I have to say, this is also a very ironic scene.

The old emperor is still alive!
Xu Tianran arrived in person and all the officials took the stage, thus kicking off this year's Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition.

When Xu Tianran came from the center, Jing Hongchen signaled and slowly walked forward to the prepared soul guide loudspeaker.

"quiet!"

The next second, a low voice suddenly sounded!

Along with this, a strong pressure spread throughout the venue.

Almost at the same time, everyone felt a darkness in front of their eyes, as if there was a feeling of "dark clouds pressing down on the city, threatening to destroy it".

All of a sudden, even breathing became rapid, and all the discussions instantly disappeared in this low voice.

The entire competition venue and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the viewing area suddenly became silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

"Long Xiaoyao..."

Chen Junting murmured softly, his expression did not change at all, and then he communicated with the Snow Emperor in the sea of ​​​​spirituality, "Snow Emperor."

Xue Di's figure slowly appeared, his tone cold.

"Is there a problem?"

"Help me sense Long Xiaoyao's condition."

Xue Di did not refuse. As a top-level expert, he could indeed make his actions look normal. But for experts of the same level, these concealments were basically ineffective. "It's not so easy to bear the claw of the dragon from Di Tian. Even the evil emperor had to recuperate for a thousand years."

As Xue Di spoke, he came to a conclusion.

"That human is still in a seriously injured state. Because he is the Dark Holy Dragon Martial Spirit, the power of the Dragon God Claw is far more serious to him than the Evil Emperor back then. It can be said that the strength of this human has been wasted by half. Even the Bear King can fight him on equal terms now."

This way, the plan is more likely to succeed.

Chen Junting couldn't help but ponder in his heart.

In fact, he certainly believed in Di Tian's methods. However, evil soul masters were known for their weirdness, and with many evil methods, they might be able to heal the injuries quickly.

Now it seems,

Regardless of whether it exists or not, Long Xiaoyao is at least useless.

As for Ye Xishui…that’s hard to say.

After Long Xiaoyao silenced the audience, Jing Hongchen spoke as the host of the opening ceremony, "Dear citizens of the Sun Moon Empire and guests who have come from afar. On behalf of His Royal Highness the Regent, I welcome you all. I also announce on behalf of His Royal Highness the Regent: The Continental Youth High-level Spirit Master Elite Competition begins now."

After the brief opening remarks, the people of the Sun-Moon Empire knelt on the ground collectively and saluted Xu Tianran, the new generation emperor who was about to ascend the throne even though he was sitting in a wheelchair.

"The regent is a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old."

Xu Tianran sat in a wheelchair, smiling but ambitious, looking at the people below bowing their heads, with his right hand stretched out and raised.

"Everyone is safe."

Then, he glanced at all the officials calmly.

"My dear ministers, please take your seats."

Just after all the officials took their seats, a middle-aged man in a black robe with gold edges appeared quietly beside Xu Tianran. There seemed to be mist on his face, and his appearance could not be seen clearly.

This person is the leader of the Holy Spirit Church, Zhongli Wu.

"Mr. Zhongli is here too."

Xu Tianran seemed to be afraid, but spoke calmly.

"How can I be absent from such a grand event?"

Zhongli Wu made a cold voice and looked down at the location of the Holy Spirit Church's participating team. "Besides, since my Holy Spirit Church has participated in the competition, we must also give His Highness an answer."

"I hope Mr. Zhongli won't let me down."

Xu Tianran's eyes were cold. "The Di Ao Academy you met in the first match is the answer sheet you have to give me. There are too many genius soul masters in the original Douluo Three Kingdoms. We need to divide the generations."

Under the mist, the corners of Zhongli Wu's gloomy mouth rose.

"Hehehe——, don't worry, Your Highness."

Xu Tianran's plan was exactly what he wanted.

At the same time, "The rules of the game are read out below."

Xu Tianran and Zhongli Wu's conspiracy continued, and a loud voice rang out. Because before the competition officially started, the rules of this competition had to be read out. This was the process.

After the rules were read out, the chief referee, Invincible Douluo Zheng Zhan, served as the referee for the first game of the first round.

He walked to the loudspeaker in front of the podium and said loudly: "First match of the preliminary round. Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy vs. Dragon Slayer Sect. Both sides select seven players and enter the waiting area."

As the host of the Sun-Moon Empire, the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy naturally has to take the brunt and make a good start.

The Dragon Slaying Sect will naturally be the sacrifice after the door is opened.
