Chapter 142: On the Eve of the Finals

Seemingly noticing the doubt in Tang Nian's eyes, Shi Ye quickly interrupted, "Why are you out alone so late?"

Tang Nian turned her head to look at the extremely eye-catching building in the distance. The Pope, built on the mountainside, was extremely magnificent and was brightly lit even at night.

This is the Spirit Hall, which is known as the holy land of spirit masters by most. It contains the Pope's Hall and the Douluo Hall, and most spirit masters yearn for this place.

Tang Nian cleared her throat and said, "This is my first time in Wuhun City, so I thought I'd come out and take a look around."

Shi Ye nodded slightly and didn't say anything more. He glanced at the time and slowly said, "Little Tang Nian, I have things to take care of, so I won't keep you company any longer. Go shopping and go home early."

Tang Nian nodded. Although she knew that Shrek Academy was now a thorn in the side of the Spirit Hall, she was clear that she was in Spirit City. Whether it was for the sake of the Spirit Hall's reputation or its own prestige, they would not take action against her here.

She is absolutely safe in Spirit City. In fact, if anyone tries to harm her here, the Spirit Hall will step in to protect her.

After leaving those words, Shi Ye didn't linger any longer. In a few flashes, he disappeared into the night.

It was getting late, so Tang Nian didn't linger. After wandering around for a while, she returned to the accommodations that had been arranged for them.

The day before the competition, Xiao Wu and Liu Erlong returned. Xiao Wu successfully obtained the spirit ring, but Liu Erlong's expression was very strange.

Although others didn't know why Liu Erlong's expression was so strange, Tang Nian could still guess that Xiao Wu had probably used the same trick again.

Not long after Xiao Wu returned, the Grandmaster also finally returned.

When the master saw the strength of the Shrek Academy students, a look of heartache flashed across his face, indicating that he had known about what had happened all along.

The master spoke up, "Children, it was my fault this time. I was too eager for you to participate in this competition. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been targeted by the Spirit Hall. Don't worry, no matter what the cost, I will not let them harm you."

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun smiled and nodded, saying, "Master, what are you saying? You have taught us so diligently for so long. Even if you haven't made any great contributions, you have certainly put in a lot of hard work. Besides, this time it was the Spirit Hall's fault. What does it have to do with you?"

The master sighed deeply, hesitated, and after glancing at the children of Shrek Academy, he ultimately did not reveal the intricacies of the matter.

As soon as Ma Hongjun finished speaking, everyone nodded in agreement.

The master began, "The finals are about to begin. There are three teams you need to watch out for in this final: the Star Luo Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire, and the three teams sent by the Spirit Hall. Among them, the Spirit Hall Academy team poses the greatest threat to you."

"The finals will only have five rounds. Although it is shorter than the qualifiers and qualifying rounds, the competition will be more intense. In the first round, the three seeded teams will receive a bye, and the remaining thirty teams will compete for fifteen qualifying spots. Don't underestimate these fifteen qualifying spots. For these fifteen spots, all the teams will show their strength that they have been holding back. They will not hold back anymore."

After a pause, the master continued, "The top-ranked academy in the second round of the two empires' qualifying matches will receive a bye, which means we will advance directly in the second round, while the remaining academies will participate in the second round of qualifying matches."

Only eight teams advanced to the third round. Including the two teams that received a bye, there are a total of ten teams. The team that received a bye in the third round is the second-place team in the qualifying round. The remaining teams need to advance to the first four rounds.

"By the fourth round, there will be no more bye spots. Only three teams will advance to the fifth round. These three teams will first have to compete in one-on-one matches to select the team with the strongest individual strength. Tang Nian has a high chance of winning this match. Even against the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, Tang Nian has an absolute advantage in one-on-one combat."

"Then the two losing teams will compete in a team battle to challenge the academy that won the individual competition, determining the final champion." After a pause, Grandmaster looked at everyone with a serious expression and said, "I believe our Shrek Academy will have no problems in the first few rounds, but I want you to remember not to reveal your full strength. You must save it for the battle against the Spirit Hall Academy. Can you do that?"

The master's words were undoubtedly a challenge for the Shrek Academy students, but no one backed down. Their morale soared, and they declared, "We can do it!"

"Alright! You can't be careless. There's a high chance we'll encounter the Star Luo Empire in the first round, so you absolutely cannot let your guard down."

After finishing his sentence, the master changed the subject and said, "I don't expect you to win the championship title in this competition. You are all geniuses, and you have a greater advantage than them. You are also younger. You can even participate in the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Competition. I believe that by then, no one will be your match, not even the Spirit Hall Academy."

As he said this, the master's eyes were full of anticipation for the future. "So this time, all I ask of you is to give your best and leave no regrets. As for the championship, even if you miss it this time, I believe it will be yours next time."

"Yes!" The Shrek Academy students shouted.

After giving their instructions, the master and Liu Erlong left.

Tomorrow is the day of the finals, and no one dares to relax. As soon as the master left, they began to cultivate, not daring to be negligent in the slightest.

After Tang Nian and Tang San's eyes met, they both turned their gazes to the group of people who were diligently cultivating.

They tacitly chose to remain silent, not wanting to disturb anyone.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Then, the two walked together to a relatively secluded corner. After arriving at their destination, they sat cross-legged facing each other, and then stretched out their hands, palms facing each other, and slowly closed their eyes.

In an instant, a powerful soul force rippled out between the two of them.

Perhaps due to their special blood relationship as children born of the same mother, Tang Nian and Tang San's soul power exhibits a highly compatible state.

They had no conflict with each other's soul power.

The two closed their eyes tightly and gradually entered a state of deep concentration. They had prepared a trump card that even the Shrek Eight Monsters and the Grandmaster did not know.

What they need to do is make a splash in the finals and catch the Spirit Hall and Spirit Hall Academy's golden generation off guard.

As for the power of this trump card, we'll have to test it out in the finals.
