Douluo Dalu: Tiger Roars in the Universe

Chapter 170 Half a Year Later, the Competition Begins

In the following days, Dai Yaochen officially reappeared in the public eye as the crown prince of the Xingluo Empire.

Given his status as the crown prince, his sudden disappearance for two years would inevitably cause some problems. Many people thought that he might have died outside. Fortunately, the Xing Luo Empire has been thriving in the past two years, so the political situation is stable and there is not much negative impact. Now that he has reappeared, those minor problems have been directly resolved.

After Dai Yaochen officially returned to the Xing Luo Empire, apart from showing up to show his presence, he did not do much else. He just dealt with his duties as the Crown Prince of Xing Luo every day and then exchanged ideas with his partners.

Dai Yaochen had previously defeated the three Soul Douluo elders of the Four Extreme Sect, as well as those Soul Douluos killed in the City of Slaughter, all without using any soul skills.

Once he can use soul skills, Dai Yaochen is still unable to defeat the Soul Douluo. His current specific combat power is maintained at the level of sweeping the Soul Saint level.

And it just so happened that his seven companions, when combined together, had the combat power to sweep the Soul Saint level, so the combat power between them was actually roughly equal, and it would be of great benefit to both sides to compete with each other.

There is no need to talk about Dai Yaochen. He fought his way out of a place like the City of Slaughter, and it is not easy for him to find a suitable opponent in the outside world. It just so happens that the team composed of seven companions can serve as a training ground for him.

The same goes for his seven companions. Although their cooperation is almost perfect and their combined strength is very strong, they still lack murderous aura and have rarely faced opponents full of murderous aura. Competing with an opponent like Dai Yaochen who just came out of the City of Slaughter can greatly improve this aspect.

Just like that, time passed slowly while sparring with partners. It felt like just a blink of an eye and half a year had passed. The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, held every five years, also gradually kicked off.

Five years ago, when the last All-Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition was in full swing, Dai Yaochen happened to be in the Yin-Yang Eye with Zhu Zhuqing, Dugu Yan, Yang Wudi, Dugu Bo and others, and stayed there for half a year, so they perfectly missed the last All-Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition.

But if they missed it, they missed it. Compared to the excitement of the previous Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, the journey to the Yin-Yang Eyes of Ice and Fire was of vital importance to them.

But this time is different. Dai Yaochen has become the crown prince of the Xing Luo Empire, and Zhu Zhuqing and Dugu Yan will soon represent the Xing Luo Royal Academy to participate in this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, so they will not miss this competition.

Because the Star Luo Empire has now entered a period of rapid development, it attaches great importance to expanding its influence on the mainland. Naturally, it hopes that the academy team from the Star Luo Empire can achieve good results in this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition.

The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition is a stage for most of the young soul masters on the continent to showcase their strength. If the Star Luo Empire's academy teams can gain an overall advantage in this competition, then it will naturally demonstrate the talent and potential of the younger generation of soul masters in the Star Luo Empire, which will be very useful for increasing the Star Luo Empire's influence on the continent.

After all, a powerful empire cannot just be strong in high-end strength. Even the younger generation must have extremely high talent and potential. This means that the country is not only strong at the moment, but this strength is strong enough to continue.

The Spirit Hall has been building up momentum for the golden generation with the purpose of increasing its influence among the younger generation. What the Star Luo Empire needs to do is to continue stepping on the golden generation of the Spirit Hall to increase its own influence.

This is what happened to Dai Yaochen back then, defeating three members of the Spirit Hall's golden generation. This can also be explained as the Star Luo Empire being lucky and having produced a genius that is rare in a century.

However, Dai Yaochen will not participate in this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition. If the Xingluo Royal Academy team without Dai Yaochen can defeat the three golden generation members of the Spirit Hall again, then even the Spirit Hall will definitely be greatly affected.

This is equivalent to slapping the Spirit Hall in the face once and then slapping it again. Not to mention increasing its influence, the Spirit Hall's own influence will be weakened a lot, and the so-called golden generation will probably become a complete joke.

After all, what is the golden generation that is completely crushed by the younger generation of soul masters of the Xingluo Empire? If this is the future of the Spirit Hall, then the Spirit Hall may have no future.

Therefore, the Spirit Hall absolutely does not want their golden generation to be defeated. However, according to the news from the Star Luo Spirit Hall, this year's seed team of the Star Luo Royal Academy is unprecedentedly strong. The Spirit Hall has no choice but to make intensive preparations to strengthen the strength of the golden generation and try its best to defeat the representative team of the Star Luo Royal Academy in the next game.

Dai Yaochen had roughly guessed the tension on the Spirit Hall side, but he did not take it too seriously. For him, he absolutely believed in the strength of his partners.

And their most important task at the moment is to add the fifth soul ring to Bai Chenxiang and Ye Lingling.

Yes, after half a year of training, not only did Dai Yaochen reach level 59 and was not far from level 60, but even Bai Chenxiang and Ye Lingling finally succeeded in breaking through level 50. As long as they added a fifth soul ring, they could officially become a five-ring soul king. In this way, Xingluo Royal Academy truly had a team of all soul kings.

For the All-Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, where a team can be considered a strong team as long as they have a four-ring Soul Master. The all-Soul King team is simply a dimensionality reduction attack. You must know that except for the Spirit Hall Academy, the teams of other academies cannot even put together a full Soul Master lineup.

It can be said that if a fight really breaks out, except for Ye Lingling, any one of the other six members of the Xingluo Royal Academy team would be able to sweep most of the participating teams. It's simply outrageous.

Fortunately, the representative team of Xingluo Royal College has a guaranteed admission quota and does not need to go through the previous preliminaries and promotion matches. They can directly enter the finals and can also enjoy a bye in the finals. Therefore, Dai Yaochen’s partners do not have to bully the weak opponents in rounds, and the participating teams from other colleges do not have to be bullied.

In the past, other people would inevitably make a few sarcastic remarks about various admission situations. However, this time the admission of the Xingluo Royal College team did not cause any objections, because with their strength, they were absolutely qualified for admission.
