Douluo Dalu: I Have a Soul Beast Clone.

Chapter 384: Many God-granted Martial Spirit Families!

The day after the pre-match mobilization.

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into Tiandou City, a solemn atmosphere was revealed in this ancient imperial capital.

All the streets around the square were blocked by soldiers in distinctive armor, especially near the hotel where the participating teams rested, where thousands of soldiers were stationed. The streets leading to Douluo Square were under complete martial law. Only the participating teams from the various colleges who walked out of the hotel could pass.

The competition stage for this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition was not built in the center of the square, but in front of the main gate of the imperial city.

In this way, the Emperor of Douluo Empire and his civil and military officials can directly watch the battle from the top of the imperial city. Not only is the view the best, but it is also safe.

Of course, as the inheritor of the god-level martial spirit bestowed by the water god Xue Ke, he can be an emperor, so his strength is not weak. There are not many people in the world who can kill him, so the so-called safety is more symbolic.

The entire competition stage is 100 meters long and 5 meters high. There are a total of 108 metal pillars around the competition stage. This is not a decoration, but a real protective soul guide.

After the competition begins, one hundred and eight soul masters will be in charge of protecting the competition stage. These metal pillars will form a protective shield to prevent all the soul skills inside from spilling out, so as to avoid damaging the imperial city or hurting innocent people.

The construction of this competition stage alone cost a huge amount of money, and mobilizing 108 soul masters to serve the competition for more than a month would be difficult to do without national-level power.

At this time, Douluo Square was empty. Except for the soldiers in the distance, there was no one in the square.

This was to avoid stampedes, so the authorities not only dispatched a large army to maintain order, but also came up with many solutions.

The square is lined with iron fences, which are about 1.5 meters high and do not affect the sight of most people, but divide the square into different areas. Whether the audience enters or leaves, there are different entrances and exits.

This way, it would be much easier for the soldiers to maintain order. There would also be a clear limit on the number of people each area could accommodate.

The Imperial City is on the north side, facing south, and a luxurious rest area is built on the west side of the competition stage, which is specially provided for the participating teams from each college.

However, the rest area can only accommodate about 70 colleges. Obviously, there are no seats for the colleges that were eliminated in the first round. This is not a waste. It can also inspire the fighting spirit of the participating students.

Since the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition switched to the current format, apart from the finals, the most exciting thing is actually the first round of knockout matches, which are far more exciting and even tragic than the ones that follow. Round robin.

There can be tactical arrangements and even tactical failures in the round-robin tournament, but this first round is a direct elimination tournament. If you lose, you have to leave. Any participating college must pass this level.

There is a bye in the competition, but no college can directly enjoy the bye privilege.

Early in the morning, the leading teachers from each college had already arrived at the Imperial City to draw lots based on the competition number plates they received when registering.

At this time, the draw ceremony was already complete. The officials of the Douluo Empire had already counted the draw results. Once the order of the competition was announced, the final preparations for the competition would be completed.

The sun slowly rose into the sky from the distant east, and a warm feeling suddenly rose in Tiandou City, located in the center of the continent.

On the top of the imperial city, a middle-aged man in a dragon robe stood with his hands behind his back. He was standing in the center of the main gate of the imperial city, which was also the best place to watch the competition below.

Beside him was a beautiful woman in gorgeous palace clothes, accompanying him respectfully and gently. A few steps behind the two of them were the civil and military officials of the Douluo Empire.

"Your Majesty." An old man in civil servant clothes stepped forward quickly and saluted respectfully beside the man. From his official uniform, it could be seen that the old man had a very high status.

"Prime Minister, how are the arrangements going?" Xue Donglai, the current emperor of the Douluo Empire, asked with a smile.

The old man who was the prime minister said respectfully: "Everything has been arranged. The draw is over, and the order of the competition has been arranged. The outside is in order. The public can enter."

Xue Donglai smiled and nodded, "Okay, pass on my order, and start letting people in at all checkpoints. Control the speed and maintain order. Whoever is in charge of a place where problems occur will be severely punished."

"Yes."

The prime minister took a few steps back before turning around and leaving.

At this time, Xue Donglai said to the beautiful woman beside him: "Queen, every time I host this grand event, I miss my youth very much. It's a pity that the royal family has too many rules, otherwise I really wanted to participate once."

The Queen smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty has always had the heart of a warrior."

Xue Donglai smiled and said, "Look, the students from the participating colleges have already entered the venue first. But today they cannot use the rest area. Only those who win the elimination round are eligible to enter the rest area.

It is said that among the many participating colleges, there are many owners of divine martial spirits. It seems that this year's competition is bound to be a fierce battle."

Ten thousand years later, the divine martial spirit is no longer exclusive to the Angel Thousand Family.

After all, there is a saying that goes, "When one person succeeds, the whole family will benefit!"
Since they have all become gods, they will naturally leave some good things for the younger generations of their families.

Before the eleven gods ascended to heaven, those who had families or sects behind them all endowed their respective families or subordinates with divine martial spirits!

For example, the Spirit Hall has the Spirit of the Great Elemental God King!
The Douluo Empire's royal family has the divine Emerald Swan spirit of coexistence of life and death bestowed by Xue Ke!

The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect is the Demon God Martial Spirit!
The Dugu family is the martial spirit of the God of Darkness!

The Ye family is the God of Space Martial Spirit...

However, these God-granted martial spirits are very powerful, but they are extremely difficult to inherit. On average, there is usually only one heir to a God-granted martial spirit in each generation, and it is very rare for a second one to appear in the same generation.

Those who cannot inherit the God-given martial spirit will inherit the degraded martial spirit, or the martial spirit that the family originally had.

This also led to the fact that after ten thousand years, the divine martial spirits did not become rampant. They were still exclusive to a very small number of people, preserving the value of the divine martial spirits!

Xue Donglai is the youngest son of the previous emperor, born to a lowly palace maid. The reason why he became the emperor of the Douluo Empire is because when he awakened his martial spirit, he inherited the divine Emerald Swan martial spirit that Xue Ke had given him!

This almost meant that he was destined to be the future emperor, so even though he was just an illegitimate child born of a palace maid when the emperor was drunk, he was still made the crown prince on the spot. His mother was even more honored because of her son, and she went directly from a lowly palace maid to a royal concubine.
