Douluo: Gu Master Yuhao, they have a big problem

As for Huo Yuhao, the intelligence said that he was a genius with twin martial spirits. He had only been in Shrek for a little over a year, and he was specially approved to enter the inner courtyard in advance...

This shocked Xu Jiawei beyond words.

Twin martial souls!

No wonder Huo Yuhao’s spirit ring ratio is so outrageous.

No wonder he could absorb spirit rings older than ten thousand years at the fourth ring.

Moreover, Huo Yuhao’s second martial soul is suspected to be ultimate ice.

At this time, Xu Jiawei remembered the 70,000-year-old Ice Scorpion's left arm bone that Shrek had purchased from the Star Luo Empire's treasury at a high price some time ago.

He had a strong feeling that there was definitely a great connection between the two.

In addition, there were things he had learned from his conversation with Master Xuan not long ago.

Xu Jiawei already understood that although they had a good relationship with Shrek, it was obviously impossible to attract these two people to the Xingluo Empire.

However, with Huo Yuhao's incredible potential.

I must find an opportunity to make some good friends with them.

As for the information about Shrek's other regular players.

It really shocked Xu Jiawei.

No one would have expected that beneath Shrek's invincible appearance, he was actually in danger.

Due to some accidents, only two of the seven regular players are still capable of fighting.

Speaking of which, this matter is somewhat related to Dai Hao.

As we all know, as a student of Shrek Inner Academy, he also has the duties of the Shrek Supervisory Group.

Before the start of this Soul Master Competition, the Shrek Seven Devils took on a mission to eliminate a gang of evil soul masters.

Coincidentally, this group of Death Hand bandits is located near the Western Legion under the command of Dai Hao, and Shrek also got the information from Dai Hao.

But the final result was that a group of inner court students were seriously injured, and only Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao were left unharmed thanks to the protection of their soul guides.

The two most seriously injured were even rushed to Shrek Academy for treatment.

This is why there are only five inner courtyard students on Shrek's registration list.

"Soul Guidance Device..."

Emperor Xingluo sighed secretly, but his eyes dimmed.

According to his insider, Mingdetang has made major breakthroughs in the research of soul guides. It is likely that within ten years, the Sun-Moon Empire will make a big move.

But their Star Luo Empire is far from ready.

Whether in terms of strength or in the development of soul guides.

The only solution now is to cling to Shrek.

Only with the help of this powerful ally can the Star Luo Empire fight against the Sun and Moon Empire.

Moreover, he is the champion of this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition.

It has to be Shrek!

First of all, someone had to suppress this information.

Other colleges must not be made aware of the problem!

……

Not long after returning to the hotel, Wang Yan called everyone to gather in the conference room.

Everyone attended this meeting.

Wang Yan came to the main seat at the conference table, motioned for everyone to sit down, and exclaimed with a smile.

"Xiao Tao, Yu Hao, well done, you are the great heroes. This battle not only demonstrated the momentum of our Shrek Academy, but also made everyone realize the power and mystery of Shrek. It can be said that the victory of this battle is of great significance to us!"

Like the opening matches of previous sessions, Shrek Academy always sent out its regular players to crush the opponent with overwhelming force to demonstrate its prestige as the number one academy on the continent.

If they had relied on the reserve team to take down the enemy after a fierce battle, it would have easily made people think that there was something wrong with the starting players.

After a brief compliment, Wang Yan got down to business.

The main thing is that Master Xuan told Wang Yan through soul power that he would take Xiao Tao to find a suitable seventh soul ring, and Wang Yan would have to figure out a solution for the first few games of the subsequent round-robin matches on his own.

Ma Xiaotao naturally accepted this with pleasure.

Then, Wang Yan said, "If you have any questions now, feel free to ask."

Bei Bei, the captain of the reserve team, was the first to ask, "Teacher Wang, are there really no reinforcements for the inner courtyard? Are we going to participate in the round-robin tournament together?"

This is also the issue that the reserve team is most concerned about. In addition, the seven people all looked at Wang Yan with a little hope in their eyes.

"Sorry, this is what the academy ordered..."

He originally thought that he was just here to help Master Xuan in this Soul Fighting Competition, but unexpected events occurred unexpectedly.

Wang Yan was also under great pressure.

We just won the opening game and haven’t had time to be happy yet.

Master Xuan arranged it like this again.

Although, if Ma Xiaotao could successfully advance to Soul Saint, everything would be much simpler.

However, before that, they were missing one of their only two pillars.

Wang Yan smiled bitterly and looked at Dai Yaoheng, Ling Luochen and Xixi: "Dai Yaoheng, how are your injuries recovering?"

Dai Yuheng pondered and said, "After a few days of rest, he has recovered well. It shouldn't be a problem for him to fully recover within half a month. If he were to force himself to take action, ten days would be enough, but I'm afraid it would further affect his injury."

Damage to the internal organs is the most serious for soul masters. When the internal organs are impacted, they are displaced, which will lead to a series of injuries.

Fortunately, the three of them were not poisoned at the time, otherwise, they would not have to rest for half a month. For example, the two who had returned to the academy for treatment would not be able to recover without more than two months of rest.

As for Xixi and Ling Luochen, who were the least injured, they have recovered well and can appear in the third round of the round-robin tournament.

"So, in the first two rounds of the round-robin tournament, if Elder Xuan takes Xiao Tao to obtain the seventh spirit ring and hasn't returned yet, we can only rely on your reserve team and Yu Hao."

Everyone in the reserve team: ...

Hearing this, the seven children were stunned.

Although two of the starting players suffered serious injuries, two suffered minor injuries and one internal injury, the pressure on them was not actually that great along the way.

After all, the smaller the ability, the smaller the responsibility, they are just a reserve team.

What's more, there are Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao who are like the stabilizing force.

It was like the opening battle, the five members of the reserve team just followed the two of them through the motions, they didn't have to worry about the battle at all, it was easy and carefree.

But now, things seem to be heading in a not-so-good direction.

Not only did Shrek Academy have no intention of supporting them, it also intended to force the seven of them to do something unpleasant.

The pressure is on!

Huo Yuhao’s mouth twitched as well.

What Xuanzi did was really in his style.

Wang Yan continued, "In the round-robin tournament in two days, you will most likely need to go all out. Now, let me make some arrangements for the round-robin tournament."

"After the first round of eliminations, there will be a total of 67 teams that will enter the next round. They will then be divided into eight groups for the next round of round-robin matches. In other words, five of the groups will have eight teams, and the other three groups will have nine teams.

The rules of the round-robin tournament are a points system, with two points for a win, one point for a draw, and no points for a loss. Only the top two teams in each group can qualify. ”

"We, Shrek, are the champions of the previous session. We will be placed in a group of eight teams in this round of elimination matches. We only need to play one match in turn with the other seven teams. Therefore, if we want to advance to the next round, we must win at least five of the games."

Wang Yan said seriously, "As I said before, the round-robin tournament is divided into team battles, individual matches, and two-two-three matches. At that time, we will draw lots on the spot to determine which method the two sides will use to compete. The team battle is a normal seven-on-seven team battle.

The individual competition is not about one person going up to play only one match, but the loser steps down and the winner can continue to fight until all seven players on one side are completely eliminated. I will adjust the order of playing on the spot according to the ability of the opponent, you just need to do your best. "

"It's mainly the 2-2-3 strategy. As the name suggests, it's divided into two 2-on-2 matches and one 3-on-3 match, with a best-of-three format. Therefore, I've considered it carefully based on your strengths.

I have tentatively decided that Xu Sanshi and He Caitou will be in one team, and Beibei, Tang Ya, and Jiang Nannan will be in one team of three. You will play two-on-two, and we will decide who will play based on the opponent. Huo Yuhao, Wang Donger, and Xiao Xiao, you three will be the three-on-three players."

Huo Yuhao, Ma Xiaotao and five other inner court disciples nodded secretly in response to Wang Yan's assignment.

This combination is indeed the most reasonable.

With Huo Yuhao in charge of the individual and team competitions, there would be basically no suspense as long as they did not encounter the championship seed teams in advance.

But if the game format was 223, with a best-of-three format and no repeated appearances, Huo Yuhao could only win one game no matter how strong he was, so he was arranged to play in the final and most important three-on-three battle.

Beibei's explosive power as a strong attack soul master complements Tang Ya's control soul master, and he is also very effective when combined with Jiang Nannan's agility attack soul master.

As a defensive soul master, Xu Sanshi can also better unleash the power of He Caitou's soul guide.

Wang Yan asked: "Does anyone have any objections to this arrangement? If so, you can raise them now."

Everyone shook their heads, except Xu Sanshi, who seemed to be hesitant to speak.

Then he said with a depressed look on his face: "Teacher Wang, why don't you let me be in the same group with Jiang Nannan? We are familiar with each other and we will definitely cooperate well."

Jiang Nannan's almond-shaped eyes widened, "Who is familiar with you? Don't be too cynical."

Wang Yan said, "This is a competition, not a place for you to talk about love. Besides, your abilities are more compatible with Cai Tou. You focus on defense, and he focuses on offense. Jiang Nannan's agility is more coordinated with Beibei's strong attack. If she cooperates with you, I'm afraid she won't be able to exert even 30% of her strength."

Jiang Nannan nodded without hesitation, "Teacher Wang is wise."

Xu Sanshi's face suddenly fell.

But this was an arranged competition, and it concerned the glory of Shrek Academy, so he couldn't continue to bother.

Wang Yan stood up and said, "Okay, this is the basic arrangement. I will go to watch the next two days of the round-robin tournament and observe the abilities of other contestants. The specific changes will depend on the situation. Everyone go back and rest first. Especially the three of you in the inner courtyard, concentrate on recovering from your injuries."

"Yes, Teacher Wang."

Everyone stood up and walked out of the meeting room.

If the people in the inner courtyard other than Huo Yuhao were previously slightly dissatisfied with Wang Yan's leadership of the team, they were now impressed.

Although Wang Yan's soul power level is indeed not good, he does have a set of skills in theory and can be said to have done his job conscientiously.

Ma Xiaotao's impression of Wang Yan also improved a lot.

"Yuhao, you guys have to cheer up. As long as you hold on until I come back, everything will be fine!" After saying goodbye to Huo Yuhao and the others, she hurriedly left the meeting room.

Outside, Master Xuan had already begun to urge her.

……

Two days passed quickly.

The brutal and intense first round of eliminations ended.

Although the authorities have tried their best to avoid casualties, nearly two hundred participating players still suffered injuries of varying degrees after this round of eliminations.

There were even more than a dozen students who died due to serious injuries. However, all students who died accidentally in battle would receive a very generous pension from the Xingluo Empire.

As for those colleges that were eliminated, the Star Luo Empire was also very good at being a good person. They gave those colleges a lot of travel expenses and gave those colleges enough face.

However, the slightly bloody scenes naturally greatly enhance the viewing experience.

It is precisely because of the cruelty and excitement of the knockout rounds that the audience is so attracted and lined up to watch the games.

After all, most soul masters are either rich or noble. It is not common to see so many talented soul masters fighting each other, or even fighting desperately.

It's really hot!

The knockout round is over, and the second round of round-robin matches will follow.

Although the round-robin tournament is not as intense as the knockout tournament, it has its own advantages, namely the rich and varied competition rules.

Moreover, after the first round of eliminations, the remaining teams will be stronger.

Therefore, the subsequent round-robin matches will undoubtedly be more exciting, which has led to countless people queuing outside Xingluo Square even late at night just to catch a glimpse of it.

Tickets to Xingluo Plaza, which can accommodate more than 200,000 people, are hard to come by, and the area around Xingluo Plaza is always jam-packed with people.

In response, the Xingluo Empire officials were naturally grinning from ear to ear, and they sent another 5,000 elite soldiers into the city to maintain order. At the same time, they also began to sell war reports in an official way, making a lot of money with little profit and a lot of sales.

But this little money is nothing compared to the prosperity of Xingluo City.

The huge flow of people stimulated consumption in Xingluo City, especially as tourists, businessmen and powerful people from various countries came to Xingluo City, which greatly promoted the economic development of the Xingluo Empire.

Today is the fourth day of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, and the round-robin tournament officially begins on this day.
