Douluo: Legacy of the World
Page 125
Sarath smiled slightly and said with the same words Ning Fengzhi had used before: "Master Ning and His Majesty will know after a while."
He withdrew his gaze and suppressed the curiosity in his heart.
Salas had already received the Pope's reply, which contained only four words: Let nature take its course.
This made Sarath a little confused, but since his superiors had already spoken, he couldn't do anything on his own.
Originally, this matter should have passed like this. One day, when Salas had finished his dinner in his luxurious office in the Spirit Temple as usual and was about to finish some final official business, a man in black walked directly into his office.
He was about to get angry because someone had trespassed into his office, but when he saw the appearance of the man under the black robe, he shuddered all over, quickly stood up, bent over and took small steps to the man in the black robe.
Before he could even open his mouth, the terrifying pressure made this platinum bishop, who had tremendous power in Tiandou City, kneel down directly.
The coldness revealed in the Pope's words that day was something Saras had never seen before.
"You, the Platinum Bishop, if you can't do it, just go back to Wuhun City and retire."
Salas was completely confused. He didn't know what was wrong with him. At that moment, a storm arose in the brain of this level 89 Soul Fighter, and his mental strength began to be rapidly consumed.
Could it be that the matter of accepting bribes from Tiandou nobles has been exposed?
Or was it that someone had leaked the news that he had been having sex with his female subordinate?
……
Sarath went over in his mind all the mistakes he had made, even the time when he was nine years old and peeped at the widowed landlady of an inn taking a bath.
But he couldn't figure out which of the following things would cause the Pope to come and question him personally.
"I wonder what I have done wrong? Your Holiness, please let me know."
Sarath, lying on the ground, asked the question in his mind with difficulty.
He wanted to die with a clear conscience.
But Bibi Dong's words made him even more confused.
"As the top leader of the Spirit Hall in Tiandou City, you are such a waste that you didn't notice the assassins in the city."
Assassin? That's the business of the Tiandou City Defense Force. What does it have to do with me, the Platinum Bishop?
But you just need to think about this in your heart. If you say it out loud, does it mean that you think you have lived too long or that you have lived enough?
Bibi Dong was in a hurry to go to Xingluo City to settle accounts, so she didn't waste time talking to this subordinate: "If there is a next time, you can have someone bring the head back to Wuhun City."
After saying this, Bibi Dongshi disappeared in the office in a flash.
The pressure in the room suddenly eased. Salas lay on the ground for a long time. Only after he was sure that Bibi Dong had left did he get up from the ground with lingering fear.
Without having time to teach a lesson to his subordinates who had not been notified in time, he began to investigate the assassination in Tiandou City with the highest efficiency.
After some investigation, looking at the list handed over by his subordinates, Salas accurately locked on Tang Yin's name.
From then on, he began to inadvertently collect information about Tang Yin, but he only did it quietly and without much noise.
Saras didn't dare to check Tang Yin's background blatantly.
He is a smart man, and he always remembers the four words "let it be" in the reply letter.
How could Salas not be interested in someone the Pope cares so much about?
The opening ceremony was still going on. After the Blue Bully Academy team came out, several other teams entered the venue. After all the teams had gathered, the originally noisy venue became quiet with the host's words.
"Next, please invite His Majesty the Emperor of the Tiandou Empire to give a speech to open this competition."
Xue Ye, who was sitting in the middle, slowly stood up and came to the amplifying soul guide in front of him. His majestic and solemn voice was enough to spread throughout the whole place:
"I, Emperor Xue Ye of the Tiandou Empire, on behalf of the Tiandou Empire and on behalf of the organizer of this competition, announce that the Pan-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition is now open."
As soon as these words came out, there was thunderous applause, and many people's faces showed excitement. It was the first time for them to see their emperor, how could they not be excited?
After the applause died down, Xue Ye continued, "Here, I hope that all the soul masters participating in this competition can give full play to their strengths and achieve good results. You are all the pride of the Tiandou Empire. For the glory of the empire, show your brilliance."
After Ning Fengzhi, the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, finished his speech, Platinum Bishop Salas began to draw lots for the first round of the preliminaries.
The deputy team of Tiandou Royal Academy, that is, Tang San's team, will have the first competition with their team.
Perhaps it was a correction to the timeline, the opponent of the Tiandou Royal Academy vice-team was the Blue Tyrant Academy which did not become Shrek Academy.
"The first round of the qualifying round, Tiandou Royal Academy versus Lanba Academy."
After these words were spoken, a hint of fear appeared on the faces of the Shrek people.
Not a good start...
When Yu Xiaogang heard about the opponent of Tiandou Royal Academy's vice-team, his reason told him that he should just let the team give up the game.
But sometimes it is not decided by reason.
The battle of the Tiandou Royal Academy vice-team as the opening battle of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition also has extremely important political factors.
This battle can be lost, but surrender is absolutely not an option, because it represents the reputation of the Tiandou royal family.
"Okay, then the first game of the first round of the qualifiers that will be held next is between Tiandou Royal Academy and Shrek Academy. All participating colleges withdraw. Please be prepared for the two colleges that will compete later. Half an hour later , the game officially begins.”
After returning to the rest area, Shrek and his group saw Yu Xiaogang and Flanders waiting inside.
Seeing the nervousness on everyone's faces, Yu Xiaogang could only cheer them up, "Don't be nervous, just play well in this game."
He never thought about defeating the Blue Tyrant Academy team that had at least one Soul King.
Yu Xiaogang looked at his favorite disciple again and warned him, "Xiao San, as the commander-in-chief, you must judge the situation clearly. If you find that the situation on the field is unfavorable, just admit defeat. Don't worry about the gains and losses of one or two games. Our goal is to play in the preliminaries."
Tang San nodded solemnly: "Teacher, I understand."
On the other side, the Blue Bully Academy did not have the same tense atmosphere as Shrek.
Several people sat in the rest area, talking and laughing, not worried at all about the upcoming battle.
If he hadn't been careful about the impact, Tang Yin would have hugged Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing together long ago.
Soon, a staff member came to inform Tang Yin and the others to enter. At the same time, the deputy team of Tiandou Royal Academy also started to move.
The two teams entered the competition venue from two different passages, and the emcee who presided over the opening ceremony began to introduce the martial spirits of the two team members one by one.
In this competition, the substitute for Lan Ba Academy is Jiang Zhu. Tang Yin is still a little worried about Zhu Zhuyun and Zhu Zhuqing, especially since the opponent this time is enough for Tang Yin to take seriously.
The two teams stood in the center of the competition venue, with captains Tang Yin and Tang San standing opposite each other.
Tang Yin smiled slightly: "Cut it."
Tang San did not have the same sense of relaxation as Tang Yin. He had a tense face and did not respond to Tang Yin's greeting.
Zhu Zhuyun looked at Dai Mubai opposite her, her usually gentle eyes flashing with a sharp light, like a wild beast staring at its prey.
Dai Mubai felt very uncomfortable with Zhu Zhuyun's eyes, but the white tiger in his body actually felt suppressed when facing Zhu Zhuyun, which made him feel very uncomfortable.
After greeting each other, the two teams each took up their positions and formed their battle formations.
The lineup of Blue Tyrant Academy is very interesting, with Zhu Zhuyun, Tailong and Huang Yuan at the front, Dugu Yan in the middle, Jing Ling and Zhu Zhuqing on the two wings, and Tang Yin at the end.
After Tang San saw the team standing in front of Blue Tyrant Academy, he clenched his fists in his heart.
He also realized that Tang Yin didn't intend to be serious this time. Wasn't this a humiliation for him?
"Brother, I will let you know the consequences of being careless."
Shrek Academy adopted a 4-1-2 tactic, with Tang San and Dai Mubai, the main attackers, positioned slightly forward.
On the VIP stage, Emperor Xue Ye said with a smile: "Sect Master Ning, I think there is no suspense in this match."
Emperor Xue Ye was also aware of the source of the students for the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy. After learning that they were a team formed by the merger of a small academy into Tiandou Royal Academy, he was a little skeptical at first. But after learning that they had defeated seven enemies with six in less than three minutes, his attitude changed 180 degrees.
This is also the source of his self-confidence.
Prince Xuexing was quite dissatisfied with this, because many of the elders in Team Two had gotten soul coins from him, and now they had lost the qualification for the competition, which made him, the person in charge, very unhappy.
But it was a real fact that he was not as skilled as his opponent. Even if the matter got out of hand and reported to Xue Ye, he would still be in the wrong. He had no choice but to accept the loss.
Ning Fengzhi saw where Tang Yin was and nodded with a smile, agreeing with Xue Ye's point of view.
Emperor Xue Ye thought that Ning Fengzhi and he both supported the vice-team of Tiandou Royal Academy. It was because Ning Fengzhi's daughter was still on the court.
"The first game of the first round of the qualifiers has officially begun."
At the referee's signal, this announced the official start of the first qualifying match for this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition.
Fortunately, it was somewhat similar to fighting spirits, and both sides had one minute to activate their martial spirits. Otherwise, Tang Yin was sure to kill them instantly if the other side couldn't activate their martial spirits.
The martial spirits and spirit rings bloomed with brilliant colors, almost lighting up the entire venue.
First, Tang San's fourth spirit ring of ten thousand years caused exclamations in the audience. Everyone couldn't believe that someone could absorb a ten thousand year spirit ring when he had only the fourth spirit ring.
But when Zhu Zhuyun, who was at the forefront of Lan Ba Academy, was possessed by his martial spirit, the shock given to everyone by the five yellow, purple and black spirit rings was no less than that of the fourth ring of ten thousand years.
"What?!" Emperor Xue Ye was shocked. "There is actually someone in my Tiandou Empire who can reach the Soul King realm before the age of 25!"
Xue Ye, who originally thought that he had secured victory, couldn't help but worry for the deputy captain of Tiandou Royal Academy.
Sarath seemed very calm, his eyes always stayed on Tang Yin.
At this time, Tang Yin only summoned his destiny martial soul, but there was no soul ring on his body.
The referee saw that Tang Yin had not summoned his spirit ring yet, so he reminded him, "Student, please summon your spirit ring."
Tang Yin just smiled and refused:
"Thank you for your reminder, senior, but I have my own judgment."
Seeing Tang Yin refused, the referee didn't say much.
Once both sides were ready, the game began.
Dugu Yan, a control-type soul master, was ready to issue an attack order.
Although Zhu Zhuqing really wanted to find Dai Mubai to avenge her previous humiliation at this moment, she still suppressed the impulsive thought.
Just as she was about to escape into the darkness and look for an opportunity, Tang Yin's voice rang in her ears: "Zhu Qing, do you want revenge?"
Tang Yin did not suppress his voice, and his words reached the ears of every member of the Blue Bully Academy team.
Zhu Zhuqing turned her head to look at Tang Yin, and after hesitating for a while, she shook her head.
"No, I don't want to..."
Tang Yin waved his hand and interrupted, "Well, it's okay to be willful once in a while."
During this period, Zhu Zhuqing would always find Tang Yin to practice with after training, wanting to improve her strength from Tang Yin and hoping to defeat Dai Mubai in the next fight.
