Starting from the young master of Haotian Sect

This is why the three major sects were all established within the Tiandou Empire, because the Tiandou royal family was weak. The Tiandou Empire was divided and had no way to manage the sects within the empire. To put it bluntly, the three major sects were like vassal states, with their own spirit masters and power, but they were not under the control of the imperial family.

"What's the prize for the champion?" Tang San asked the question that concerned him most. No matter how weak the Tiandou royal family was, it was still one of the empires, and their ancestors were rich. There might be some good things in the treasury.

"We'll know that tomorrow. There will be a dinner at the Tiandou Palace tomorrow, and Emperor Xue Ye will make the announcement himself."

On that day, the news of the finals held by the Tiandou Empire spread like wildfire, spreading throughout the streets and alleys of the Tiandou Dynasty, and had become the hottest topic of discussion.

This is certainly a good thing for the residents of Tiandou Imperial City. After all, most of the residents do not have the ability to move long distances. Ordinary people who are not even soul masters have no way to leave the city. Now the finals can be held in their own city, which is naturally a good thing.

Some residents of Tiandou Imperial City even believed that the Tiandou Empire was about to rise and could even compete to host the finals of the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition.

The next night, amidst such heated discussions, a lively dinner was held at the Tiandou Palace. The Tiandou Palace was naturally magnificent, with a stone forest in the center, surrounded by rugged rocks and stone peaks.

On ordinary days, the center of the palace is very quiet and few people are here. However, today on Xue Ye's night, His Majesty is holding a banquet here to entertain the top 32 contestants of the competition, so the place has become lively early.

There are a total of 224 people in the top academy teams, and nearly people including substitutes. The people gathered here in groups of three or five, chatting and discussing things. In addition to the contestants, various prominent figures of the Tiandou royal family were also present, such as Prince Xuexing, Crown Prince Xueqinghe and three other princes, even Dugu Bo was present.

After all, for Tiandou, isn't it just to start attracting players in such occasions after paying such a huge price?

Although everyone is an opponent, the atmosphere is very active and the whole scene is very lively.

As the seeded player of the organizer, the Tiandou Royal Academy team naturally attracted much attention, and Dugu Yan attended the event in a gorgeous dress, wearing a green dress with embroidered patterns, revealing her snow-white skin. Dugu Yan's hair was draped over her shoulders, and the neckline of the dress was quite low, revealing her wavy hair, revealing her snow-white and bottomless ravines. The spring scenery was so beautiful that all the men present couldn't help but take a few more glances.

A charming breath that makes people feel numb to the bones.

After all, they are from different colleges, and Dugu Yan has few opportunities to see her sweetheart. She must seize the opportunity. Tang San will be present today, and she has not yet taken out her most beautiful clothes.

"Young Sect Master Tang, Yanyan offers a toast to you." Dugu Yan came over with a cup of sake, her steps were fragrant, and she drank first as a toast.

Tang San glanced at Dugu Yan. Others thought Dugu Yan's elusive beauty was very attractive, but Tang San had seen it before.

"Don't pretend to be drunk, don't try to scam people." Tang San immediately stopped Dugu Yan's plan of scamming people by taking advantage of her drunkenness.

Instead, Tang San looked past Dugu Yan and towards Ye Lingling, who was drinking alone in a corner not far away. Ye Lingling was dressed simply, and her beauty was like a landscape painting in ink. Although it was done with only a few strokes, she was otherworldly and ethereal, like a green lotus in a deep valley, very pleasing to the eye.

There were many people around Ye Lingling who were eager to strike up a conversation and raise a toast to her, but without exception, they were all rejected by Ye Lingling's cold aura.

Ye Lingling smiled gently, raised her glass to Tang San and took a sip. Tang San nodded and took a sip as well.

Of course, Tang San saw many familiar faces at this dinner, even Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were there, but he did not see the Blue Silver Emperor's clone. However, Tang San did not go forward to say anything. After all, the biggest highlight of the night was the championship prize.

Chapter 263 Coincidence?

"Captain Tang~" Dugu Yan reeked of alcohol, as if drunk, and opened her arms to hug him.

Tang San placed one hand on the face of the beautiful snake Dugu Yan and said to Qian Renxue who was tasting wine beside him, "Senior sister, help her sober up."

Qian Renxue nodded and waved her hand. A faint light emanated from Dugu Yan's body, and the smell of alcohol disappeared completely.

Qian Renxue is a six-winged angel. She can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. Any negative effects are useless to her. It is impossible for her to get drunk. Just now, she tasted different kinds of wine out of curiosity, and all of them were as bland as water.

Seeing that her drunken state had been relieved, Dugu Yan couldn't help but glare at the freckled woman. She was so angry that she was ruining her own business!

"It's so lively here. Seeing everyone so energetic, I feel like I'm back in my youth." At this moment, a leisurely voice sounded.

This sudden voice broke the lively atmosphere and made everyone turn around. At this time, Emperor Xue Ye walked in slowly, with the Queen holding his arm and accompanying Emperor Xue Ye into the venue.

Seeing the emperor finally appear, many people present cheered up. Although they knew that the possibility of winning the championship was very slim, it was not impossible for them to get third place or even runner-up with luck.

"Everyone looks very energetic." Xue Ye's eyes swept over everyone present, pausing for a moment on Tang San in particular, and continued, "I also know that everyone has been looking forward to this for a long time. The ultimate winner of the Continental Elite Spirit Master Competition will be given the greatest reward by the Heaven Dou Royal Family."

Prince Xue Qinghe came over personally with a tray wrapped in red cloth, and then Xue Ye lifted the red cloth to reveal what was inside.

Three soul bones emitting light and an exquisite soul guide.

However, when they saw these three soul bones and soul guides, the atmosphere in the whole venue stagnated. Many people looked at each other in confusion and even whispered to each other.

Xie Yue and Yan even smiled in disdain, because these three soul bones were far inferior to the soul bones given to them by Qian Xunji. Judging from the fluctuations and luster of their soul power, these three soul bones were only thousand-year soul bones. Although they were of the great thousand-year limit, very close to ten-thousand-year soul bones, a thousand years was still a thousand years. Even a nine-thousand-year soul bone and a ten-thousand-year soul bone were worlds apart.

In fact, six or seven thousand year old soul bones are already very precious. After all, not everyone can be the young master of Haotian Sect, and not everyone can have the reward from the Pope. However, for the champion reward of the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition, which is held only once every few years, a thousand year old soul bone seems a bit inferior and shabby.

As for the soul guide device, it is even more so. Although the soul guide device is precious, it can only serve as an auxiliary and cannot improve the soul master's cultivation. Therefore, the preciousness of the soul guide device is more due to its rarity.

"What the hell? I thought the Tiandou Royal Family won the finals because they had some secret weapon, but it turns out they only had a thousand-year soul bone and a soul guide?"

"Hey, since we can't win the championship anyway, I'm happier with this little reward."

For a moment, whispers were heard. Some were confused, some were gloating. Even Dugu Bo frowned. Has the Tiandou royal family really fallen to this point? All these things combined are not as valuable as a fairy product.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the room was a little off, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe quickly picked up the soul guide and introduced it, "Everyone, this soul guide has a history. It's our Tiandou Empire's late emperor, His Majesty Xue Tian, ​​who used it in his conquests across the world. It's called the Dragon Abyss Boat."

Prince Xue Qinghe held up the Longyuan Boat. It was spindle-shaped, with a dragon head at the front and a fish tail standing upright at the tail. There were four wings on each side that looked like fins. It was milky white in color and looked like it was carved from jade. It was about 30 centimeters long from head to tail. Even though Tang San was standing far away, he could still feel the energy fluctuations emanating from it.

"Hmm? This thing..." Tang San frowned, narrowed his eyes slightly, and stared at the Longyuan boat in Prince Xue Qinghe's hand.

Prince Xue Qinghe introduced, "This soul guide has extremely unique properties. It requires a soul master to activate it with soul power in order to reveal its original form. The original form is approximately twelve meters long, with a diameter of two meters at its thickest point, and can accommodate twelve to fifteen passengers at a time. It can swim up and down the ocean, sailing on the surface as well as diving into the water. It is said to be able to dive to depths of up to three hundred meters. With it, one no longer needs to fear any wind or waves when sailing on the ocean. If the wind and waves are strong, it can immediately dive into deep water. It can be said to be a unique life-saving treasure boat. This device is extremely suitable for viewing the scenery of the ocean or for life-saving purposes. When it transforms into its original form, it becomes completely transparent, allowing for viewing the scenery from any angle in the ocean. It is extremely magical. At the same time, it can also withstand the soul attacks of hundred-year-old soul beasts."

"It was with this Dragon Abyss boat that our Heaven Dou Empire's late emperor, His Majesty Xue Tian, ​​was able to pacify the four seas and coastlines and establish the Heaven Dou Empire."

Hearing Prince Xue Qinghe's eloquent speech, countless soul masters present sneered, and some even murmured in mockery: "Oh, do you really think that everyone will worship their late emperor as a god? It's just a soul guide and means of transportation. Any soul master with a water-attributed martial spirit can do it."

"Let me tell you, I heard about this soul guide at an auction in Hanhai City, but it ultimately went unsold. I'm sure there are more than one of these things, and they're completely useless. Only the Tiandou Royal Family treasures them."

Although the soul masters present looked down on them, they chose not to speak out, because they all understood that these prizes had nothing to do with them. They participated in the finals more to make a name for themselves so that they could join a large sect after graduation, or even join the Spirit Hall.

"Pacify the coastline? Conquer the four seas?" A strange look flashed in Tang San's eyes. The Tiandou Empire naturally has coastal cities. The Hanhai City just mentioned is one of the coastal cities of the Tiandou Empire. Moreover, the Tiandou Empire has many more coastal cities than Xingluo.

As the young master of the Haotian Sect, Tang San knew one thing, that is, there was a place called Sea God Island on the sea, but getting to Sea God Island was not a simple matter of taking a boat. Tang Chen, the ninety-nine-level Ultimate Douluo of the Haotian Sect, had warned him that there was an extremely powerful sea soul beast in the sea leading to Sea God Island, and even he would not be its opponent at sea.

At the beginning, Tang Chen was with Qian Daoliu, and Qian Daoliu could fly for a very long time, so he was able to pass over the sky.

When Tang San heard that the Spirit Hall had discovered Seagod Island by accident, he was surprised. How could Seagod Island be so easily discovered? Seagod Island had existed for who knows how many years without being discovered, so its location must be difficult to find. How could the Spirit Hall have discovered it by chance?

"Coincidence? Or..." Tang San narrowed his eyes. He felt that the possibility of coincidence was very low, because the Spirit Hall was geographically located between the two empires, sandwiched between them. In the middle of the continent, it was extremely far from the ocean. As a result, the Spirit Hall, which was the farthest away, discovered the Sea God Island first? This possibility was even lower.

Chapter 264: Swans of the Vast Sea

"Wait." Tang San suddenly remembered something and pondered in his mind: "Great-grandfather Tang Chen disappeared not long after returning from Seagod Island. The masters in the sect had wanted to go to Seagod Island to search for great-grandfather's whereabouts, but in the end they did not go to Seagod Island because of great-grandfather's warning. Father did meet great-grandfather, but at that time, father had just awakened his martial spirit and was still young. Qian Xunji is more than ten years older than father. Could it be that the discovery of Seagod Island is related to him? So Qian Daoliu went to explore it personally?"

Tang San shook his head. He felt as though he were being influenced by Bibi Dong. He muttered to himself, "I've really overreacted to Bibi Dong's memories. Qian Xunji might be a brute, but it's impossible that everything is connected to him. Perhaps the discovery of Seagod Island was actually due to a Spirit Master from the Spirit Hall going out to sea by chance, and then discovering a safe route to Seagod Island."

Tang San looked at Dugu Yan, who was drinking alone not far away and hadn't listened to Prince Xue Qinghe's introduction of the reward. He used his spirit power to spread the word, "Dugu Yan, come here."

Because his plan was ruined by Little Freckles and he was despised by Tang San, Dugu Yan, who was drinking alone, was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and felt that he must be drunk and had auditory hallucinations, shook his head and continued drinking.

Tang San was speechless. He walked directly to Dugu Yan and said, "Come here for a moment."

Seeing Tang San coming over and calling her, and then Tang San walked to a remote corner to wait for her to come over, Dugu Yan, with a drunken red face, was stunned.

Not an auditory hallucination?!

Dugu Yan suddenly sobered up and thought to himself: Could it be that my spring has finally arrived! This Tang Hammer has finally come to his senses!

Dugu Yan put down the wine glass in her hand, tried her best to maintain etiquette, walked behind the stone mountain, smoothed her hair, looked at Tang San and said: "Tang Chui, Third Young Master, what is the matter that you asked Yanyan to come to such a remote place?"

Dugu Yan looked shy, a smirk on her lips, and her body was timid. She was more worried about the fact that although the rockery was relatively secluded, it was still in public, and it would be difficult for her to guarantee that she would not scream out loud.

No wonder his attacks always failed. It turned out that Tang San liked to be in crowded places and outdoors.

At this moment, Tang San really wanted to knock open Dugu Yan's head with a hammer to see what was inside. Why was her head full of things related to colors?

Tang San asked: "I know you have been studying at the Tiandou Imperial Academy since you were a child, and you know much more about the affairs of the Tiandou Empire than Dugu Bo. You should know what the inherited martial spirit of the Tiandou Imperial family is."

Dugu Yan tilted her head, a puzzled look on her face, not knowing why Tang San asked this. However, Dugu Yan also knew that this was a good opportunity to show herself, so she answered truthfully: "The martial spirit of the Tiandou royal family is very weak, it is the swan martial spirit."

Tang San didn't really know much about the Tiandou Imperial Family. He only knew they were weak. The strongest of the four princes was the Second Prince, but he had only reached the Soul King level in his thirties, which wasn't too impressive even for the lower four sects. He hadn't expected their martial spirit to be a swan. No wonder the Tiandou Imperial Family was so weak.

"What is the martial spirit of Xue Tian, ​​the late emperor of the Tiandou Empire?"

"I know this. The martial spirit of Emperor Xuetian is the Vast Sea Swan. The history class of the academy specifically introduced Emperor Xuetian. He was the founder of the Heaven Dou Empire, so the introduction was very detailed. The royal family of the Heaven Dou Empire was proud of him. Emperor Xuetian's title was not Snow Sky Douluo but Vast Sea Douluo, so I remember his martial spirit. This question was even asked in the exam." Dugu Yan introduced while holding Tang San's arm, looking very intimate. Unexpectedly, studying hard is really useful.

Tang San did not pull his hand away, allowing Dugu Yan to hold his hand.

Hearing about the Snow Sky Emperor's spirit, Tang San muttered to himself, "Boundless Sea Swan? This Snow Sky Emperor's spirit. Is he also a sea spirit master?"

Dugu Yan said, "It's possible. The Swan Martial Spirit is a spirit that has some points in water, land, and air, but none of them are strong enough. I don't know why the descendants of the Tiandou royal family didn't inherit the powerful spirit of the previous emperor, and then they all mutated and became weak swan spirits."

Tang San's eyes narrowed, and he said in a deep voice, "No, it's not that all the descendants of the Tiandou royal family have mutated their spirits. The one whose spirit mutated should be the Snow Sky Emperor."

Mutated martial spirits basically will not be passed down, just like the mutated Clear Sky Hammer and the mutated Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. Even if the martial spirits of the child born are the Clear Sky Hammer and the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, they will still be normal Clear Sky Hammer and Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, not mutated.

The inherited martial spirit of the Tiandou Empire's royal family is the swan, which means that it is not the descendants who mutated, but the first generation.

Tang San thought to himself, "Could this Snow Sky Emperor be from Seagod Island? Could his martial spirit have mutated because of the Divine Test? But can a Seagod Island Spirit Master leave the island at will? Or was he originally a Seagod Island Spirit Master, and then went to Seagod Island to get an opportunity?"

"And there's that weird Longyuan boat. No matter what, we can't let it go."

Tang San looked at the burping Dugu Yan. After all, this little snake had provided him with useful information. He said softly, "Stop tugging at my hand. Save it for next time we go to the medicine garden."

Dugu Yan was a little confused after drinking. She looked up at Tang San and saw double. She didn't know whether he was really drunk or pretending to be drunk. Dugu Yan suddenly pulled Tang San's hand away and then kissed him.

Tang San wiped his lips lightly and said disdainfully, "Your mouth reeks of alcohol."

Tang San pulled Dugu Yan away, then looked in the direction of Dugu Bo. It was obvious that Dugu Bo had been covering for the two of them, and no one would come to disturb his granddaughter's good things.

Tang San signaled Dugu Bo to take away Dugu Yan, who was a little confused and laughing at something.

When Tang San returned to the banquet, Xue Qinghe was still introducing the champion rewards. Although the three soul bones had reached the level of nine thousand years, two skull bones and one torso bone, there was no doubt that no one present was surprised.

That's it?

Emperor Xue Ye walked to the front of the stage and said with a smile, "Everyone, the rewards are not over yet. In addition to these three soul bones and the Dragon Abyss boat, the winning team can choose three treasures from the national treasury."

When people heard that they could go to the treasury to choose treasures, the scene finally became a little lively. After all, it was the empire's treasury, and everyone wanted to know what was inside.

However, facing Xue Ye's sweet talk, Tang San shook his head and sneered. This trick might be enough to fool a child, but Tang San saw through it immediately. This trick is completely useless. The Tiandou royal family can hide their most precious things and only give you a few treasures that they can accept.

But the real good things, such as the relic of the previous emperor that even Pope Qianxunji wanted and that was kept by generations of emperors, had long been hidden and was not in the national treasury at all.

Even if Tang San finally won the championship, the relic of the previous emperor would not be in the national treasury.

In this atmosphere and discussion, the dinner came to an end. Three days later, the finals of the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition were successfully held in Tiandou Imperial City.

Chapter 265 Unlucky Guy No.

"Oh? Our second round against Blazing Academy?"

On the second day of the finals, Tang San and his Wuhun Academy finally drew their opponents. In the first round, they played against Cuiyun Academy, which was ranked lower. Undoubtedly, with the mentality that if they didn't play in the knockout rounds they would be eliminated too, they might as well play. All seven main players of Cuiyun Academy also took the field. However, after playing for a few minutes, Cuiyun Academy had already forgotten their mother's surname.

It's no wonder that Cuiyun Academy surrendered after a few minutes. After all, Cuiyun Academy is ranked low, and with only one Soul Master in the entire team, it is not as good as Xiangjia Academy. If Xiangjia Academy hadn't been unlucky, Cuiyun Academy should have been eliminated. Therefore, Wuhun Academy was effectively given a bye in the first round.

In the second round, which was the round of 16, another unlucky guy came, Blazing Academy.
