Unrivaled Tang Sect: Xiao Ding Zhen Tian

Chapter 156 Whose Home Court?

Obviously, Xiao Yun's plan was successful.

The next day, the organizers announced two pieces of news at the same time.

The first thing is that the Douling team withdrew from this competition. Almost all of the main players were injured, and they would definitely not be able to recover in a short time. Even people like Guzhu Jian and Qian Yuan, who were taken care of by Chen Zifeng, couldn't even walk. It was extremely miserable.

Then there was the penalty for Shrek. Just as Xiao Yun thought, the organizer regarded the competition between Shrek and Dou Ling as normal, so Shrek could still stay in the competition.

Speaking of which, Shrek was indeed very lucky in the subsequent quarter-finals, as they were drawn against the worst team. Xiao Yun didn't even appear in this match. In the team battle, led by Chen Zifeng and Ling Luochen, they defeated the opponent with ease.

In terms of individual competition, Chen Zifeng staged a great show of destroying the team with one move. Similarly, Chen Zifeng also gained the attention of many fans because of his outstanding performance.

This made Brother Feng feel proud for a while.

early morning.

As soon as the Shrek Academy team, dressed in dark green uniforms, appeared in Xingluo Square, they aroused cheers like a mountain roaring and a tsunami.

From the initial competition with over a hundred teams to the current final four, a month has passed since the competition began.

For the remaining four teams, each team only has two more big battles left. The time for decisive victory has come, and the time for all-out fighting has also arrived.

The rest area has been renovated, and there are only four areas left, and each team is far apart from each other.

There was nearly half an hour before the start of the game, and everyone from the four teams had already arrived.

Occasionally, sparks would burst out between the four teams when their eyes collided. While the fighting spirit was high, the atmosphere in the rest area also became solemn, tense, and even a bit chilling.

The sky gradually brightened. Today's weather was still good. The sun shone on the wide Xingluo Square, making the entire square covered with a layer of light gold. But in the eyes of the four teams that entered the semi-finals, this was not only sunshine, but also the honor that they had to fight for with all their strength.

The first day of the semi-finals was a team battle.

To everyone's surprise, a ten-meter-wide red carpet was spread from the direction of the imperial city gate to the front of the competition stage. Ten minutes before the lottery started, the imperial city palace gate opened wide. His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire strode out surrounded by the palace guards and walked straight towards the competition stage.

"Long live, long live, long live!"

All the soldiers responsible for maintaining order raised their weapons and shouted "Long live the army".

The people immediately noticed the emperor's appearance and also shouted long live the mountain.

The members of the four teams also stood up and paid attention to His Majesty the Emperor.

Next to the Emperor of Xingluo Empire stood four old men, forming a square with the Emperor at the center of the square. There were only twenty guards following him, which did not seem exaggerated.

However, the players of each participating team knew clearly that this escort team was extremely luxurious. The four old men were probably all Titled Douluo-level masters worshipped by the Xingluo Empire.

Since the Spirit Hall, which once controlled the strongest spirit masters on the continent, collapsed ten thousand years ago, most of the strong spirit masters have been recruited by various countries. As spirit masters have a deeper understanding of spirits, the chances of Title Douluo appearing have increased a lot more than before.

It’s just that some Titled Douluo rely too much on drugs to assist them when they break through, so that their actual strength is slightly weaker.

Of course, even if the number of Titled Douluo is greater than ten thousand years ago, the total number is still scarce.

Moreover, for the same Titled Douluo, different martial souls, different cultivation methods, different spirit rings, different spirit bones, and different numbers of spirit bones will lead to huge differences in cultivation.

One hundred and eight soul masters responsible for protection around the competition stage bowed to the emperor at the same time, but they did not kneel down. According to the regulations of the Star Luo Empire, royal soul masters with rings above four do not need to kneel down.

His Majesty the Emperor stepped onto the competition stage, surrounded by four Title Douluo. Facing the direction of Xingluo Square, he smiled and said, "My people, please stand up."

“Long live, long live, long live.”

Cheers suddenly erupted in Xingluo Square, which showed that His Majesty the Emperor was very loved by his people.

The Emperor of Xingluo Empire did not try to stop the noise, but just looked at the civilians in the distance with a calm and smiling face. When the square gradually quieted down, 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. I am deeply honored that this competition can be held in our country. First of all, I would like to thank the more than 100 academy teams from various countries. It is they who have presented wonderful games, allowing us to see the rapid development of the continent's soul masters and soul guides. It also gave me the opportunity to have fun with the people."

"Today, the semi-finals will begin later, and this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition will also come to an end. The drawing of the semi-finals is also the last drawing of this competition, so I decided to personally host this drawing. Hope History Lake Academy, Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, Diao Academy and our Star Luo National Academy of the Star Luo Empire can provide everyone with more exciting competition scenes in the final game."

"I know that everyone is eager to watch the game, and I am also very much looking forward to it. Let's start now. I am willing to have fun with the people, and I also wish our Star Luo Empire eternal prosperity from generation to generation."

His Majesty the Xingluo Emperor's speech was grand and humorous, and not lengthy. As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience once again cheered "Long live the Emperor".

Among the four old men who followed him onto the stage, the one in the front left took two steps across and faced the rest area. "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's body. The astonishing pressure even made everyone in Xingluo Square feel as if the sky was darkening.

"In order to ensure the safety of the players in the semi-finals and finals, I have decided that in each of the following matches, the Imperial Protector Douluo will serve as the referee and preside over the match. Today's draw and the first match will be presided over by Senior Huang Jinxu, whose title is Tiansha."

Emperor Xingluo said with a smile.

For the ordinary people watching the game, the Emperor's introduction would only cause cheers. However, the four participating teams in the audience were all surprised.

"It turned out to be him!"

Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng and others spoke up one after another, obviously having heard of the reputation of this Tiansha Douluo.

However, after a brief surprise, Ma Xiaotao quickly calmed down and went on stage to draw lots with the other three captains.

The one who came out from the Sun and Moon side was Ma Rulong, a young man of medium build with broad shoulders and back from Dio Academy, while the captain of Xing Luo was Princess Jiujiu, who was wearing a light yellow team uniform and looked a bit more heroic.

"Oh my god, this princess is so beautiful." said Chen Zifeng.

"Hehe, she has a pretty face and a nice figure, and she's a princess. Wow, I'm feeling it." Yao Haoxuan also showed an obscene smile.

Xiao Yun silently took two steps back, not wanting to associate with these two idiots.

The four captains representing the four major colleges have come to the stage and the drawing of lots has begun.

Under the gaze of the four titled Douluo, the four captains came before His Majesty the Emperor of Xingluo. The Emperor of Xingluo smiled and said, "I am very happy to meet you young talents. The competition is about to begin. I hope you can complete this competition with friendship first and competition second. I will throw out four balls with lottery numbers written on them. You will grab them at the same time. Are you ready?"

Ma Xiaotao narrowed her eyes and glanced at Princess Jiujiu beside her, "Okay." Princess Jiujiu smiled and nodded. Ma Rulong and the captain of Di'ao Academy also nodded.

"Attention."

Emperor Xingluo narrowed his eyes slightly, and then, no one could see clearly how he took action, as four balls of golden light rose into the sky at the same time.

Ma Xiaotao had been ready for a long time. As soon as the Emperor Xingluo made a move, she had already soared up. In such a close distance, releasing martial arts and soul skills would affect speed. Whether it was her, Di Ao Academy, or Ma Rulong, they all made the same choice, jumping up and rushing towards the golden ball in the air at the fastest speed.

Only Princess Jiujiu remained motionless, still standing there with a smile on her face.

Ma Xiaotao is worthy of being the captain of Shrek Academy. Don’t look at her as a girl. With a sudden force, her delicate body soared into the air, and almost instantly she grabbed a small ball from the air and dropped it down.

When she began to fall, the captain of Diao Academy and Ma Rulong both succeeded.

And the last golden ball fell from the sky, and Princess Jiujiu just stretched out her hand and caught the ball.

A faint smile appeared on the pretty face of the princess. She glanced at the ball in her hand. Although she was the last to succeed, she was the first to report the result.

"I'm number one."

Ma Rulong said in a deep voice, "No. 2."

Ma Xiaotao's eyes fell directly on Princess Jiujiu's pretty face, "No. 1."

So far, although the Di Ao Academy has not yet announced the number, the draw results have come out. Shrek Academy, which is also number one, will play against Xingluo National Academy today. And Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy will naturally face Di Ao Academy.

After Emperor Xingluo personally checked the lottery numbers, he announced the results to the people. When the people of the Star Luo Empire heard that their team was going to face Shrek Academy, waves of exclamations kept coming from the audience.

They have all witnessed Shrek’s strength. They couldn’t even kill a veteran strong team like the Douling Team instantly. Can Xingluo win?

The competition rules of the semi-finals and finals follow the rules of the previous knockout rounds, which are also divided into two days, with team battles and individual knockout rounds.

The difference is that you must win both games to qualify. If both teams win one game each, then you must use a 2-2-3 strategy to advance to the playoffs.

In other words, there is no longer any advantage to winning a team fight.

The difference between the semi-finals and the finals is that the semi-finals are not completed in one day, but in the finals, team battles, individual knockout rounds, and two-two-three tactics will be carried out in one go. At that time, the competition will not only be about strength, but also about sustained fighting power and endurance. , but also a contest of willpower.

The Xingluo Emperor smiled and said, "I wish the four teams to be able to show their full strength in the next game. The draw is over, please prepare yourselves. The first team battle today will be between Shrek Academy and Xingluo National Academy, and the second will be between Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy and Di'ao Academy."

After the drawing of lots, Ma Xiaotao walked off the stage.

"It seems that our luck is pretty good. We have drawn the weakest team for two consecutive rounds." Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Both Riyue and Di'ao have strong men at the Soul Emperor level. In terms of strength, Xingluo is indeed not as good as them.

But Xingluo is definitely not weak. It can be said that when Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yuheng were not sent out, Xingluo's lineup was not much different from Shrek's.

"The round of 16 tactic can no longer be used." Xiao Yun suddenly spoke at this time, and everyone looked at him.

Xiao Yun continued, "The Xingluo Royal Family's Star Crown Martial Soul is a very powerful auxiliary martial soul. It is not only reflected in the amplification aspect, but also a very functional martial soul. Whether it is assistance or control, it has excellent effects."

"But this is not the most important thing. Of course, you may not believe me, but I can only say that if we fight this team battle with me as the core, it will be difficult for us to win."

Although everyone was a little confused, Wang Yan still asked, "So who do you think should be the core of this game?"

"Senior Dai, and Senior Xixi." Xiao Yun spoke directly.

Dai Yuheng was stunned, "Are you serious?"

Xixi was even more confused. When would she be able to become the core?

Xiao Yun nodded, "I will assist Senior Ling in controlling the field in this match. Senior Dai, the main attack is up to you. It would be best if you can hold back at least two strong attacking spirit masters on the opposite side. This way, we will have a chance to assassinate Princess Jiujiu."

Everyone looked at each other. Although they didn't understand why Xiao Yun valued Jiujiu so much, to them, the words of this boy who was less than thirteen years old were not unbelievable.

Wang Yan thought for a moment and said, "Well, in this match, Yaoheng will replace Sanshi. Except for Xiaotao, all the players in our regular team will be sent up. We will definitely win this match."

"Must win!"

Both sides took a break and then went on stage one after another.

On Shrek's side, the leader was Dai Yuheng. Many viewers knew this young master from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, and when he appeared, there was quite a buzz.

And when Jiujiu's beautiful figure appeared, the cheers from the audience reached a climax!
"Princess, I love you!"

"Come on! Kill Shrek!"

"Ahhh, Princess!"

Almost half of the shouts came from male audiences, which shows how popular Jiujiu is in the Xingluo Empire.

However, this does not mean that Jiujiu is the most popular player in this competition.

"Brother Xiao Yun, look at me!"

"Wow! So handsome, he smiled at me!"

"Xiao Yun! Xiao Yun!"

Whether in the previous life or now, Xiao Yun has always felt that girls are very complex creatures.

When he heard the deafening shouts, the corners of his mouth twitched and he revealed a bitter smile.

Except for Jiujiu, the other six members of the opposite Xingluo team also twitched their lips.

How can this brat be so popular?!
