From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 195 Pre-match meeting
When Leng Xiyao and Qin Menglan arrived, everyone was already waiting there.

"Xiyao, you're here?" Seeing Leng Xiyao coming, Flanders hurriedly asked her to sit down.

"Coming, coming." Leng Xiyao pulled Qin Menglan to sit down without saying much. She looked at the master sitting in the main seat with a serious face.

"Ahem, since everyone is here, let me explain the rules to you today." Seeing that everyone was here, the master coughed twice, drawing everyone's attention, and said while looking at everyone:
"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition is a grand event initiated by the royal families of the two empires, Tiandou and Xingluo, and co-organized by the Spirit Hall. I don't need to say how grand its scale is."

"The students sent by participating colleges must be under 25 years old. The atmosphere of the competition is also for the purpose of friendly competition. We try our best to avoid injuring opponents, and death is not allowed."

"Master, this doesn't seem appropriate." Dai Mubai raised his hand to interrupt the master's words: "Soul skills are blind. What if they kill someone by mistake? If the strength of both sides is similar, and they fight with all their strength, casualties are inevitable."

The master looked at Dai Mubai, sighed, and said, "That's true, but there's nothing we can do. This is just a competition, not a fight to the death, and the meaning of this rule is the same - even if the fight is fierce, when you think of this rule, you have to be patient and restrain yourself."

"Tsk, what's the point of fighting like this? What if we stop and the enemy takes advantage of us? What if we lose?"

Dai Mubai felt a little depressed. He thought that he would be forced to stop when he was having a great time in the game. He had a lot of passion but nowhere to release it. It was like having a beautiful woman next to him but being unable to do anything. It was quite depressing.

The master said: "Apart from this hard rule, there is nothing much to say about the rest. It is worth mentioning that because this conference has a soul guide academy called Sun Moon Academy joining, there is no restriction on the use of non-disposable soul guides, but hidden weapons like Xiao San and firearms produced by Xiyao Chamber of Commerce are still not allowed to be used."

"Huh? Isn't this cheating?" Ma Hongjun had just exchanged glances with Miss Jiangzhu, and was extremely shocked when he heard the master's words.

Others were also dumbfounded. Soul guides might not be powerful individually, but you can't handle a lot of them. If one person carries more than a dozen soul guides, who can withstand it?

Looking at the surprised eyes of the crowd, the master shrugged and said helplessly: "This can't be helped. The contestants from Sun Moon Academy are generally weaker and most of them rely on soul guides to fight. If bringing in weapons is prohibited, then they don't need to participate."

Hearing this, Oscar said disdainfully: "If you don't want to participate, then don't participate. Why would you participate in the Soul Master Competition if you can't even organize a Soul Master team? Do all the high-level Soul Master academies on the continent have to accommodate them?"

"If you say so, it's actually not wrong." The master stood up, took out a map of Douluo Continent from the bookshelf beside him, and unfolded it to everyone.

Leng Xiyao took a look and saw dozens of marks on the map. Each mark had the name of an academy written on it. It was obvious that the master had done a lot of research on the enemies of the Seven Monsters.

Among the names of these academies, the fonts on four places are particularly bold, namely the Tiandou Royal Academy in Tiandou City, the Xingluo Royal Academy in Xingluo City, the Wuhun Academy in Wuhun City, and the Sun and Moon Academy on the eastern coastline.

"In the two empires, there are nearly a hundred high-level spirit master academies. Each academy has a quota for the competition, and each of the two empires has an official high-level spirit master academy that will occupy two quotas. Their home teams will be directly guaranteed to enter the finals and compete with the Spirit Hall representative team."

"However, this year there is one more team from Sun Moon Academy among the participating teams, so the rules of the competition will naturally have to change accordingly."

Seeing that everyone was still confused, the master had to explain it more clearly: "This is a joint decision made by the Spirit Hall, the Tiandou Imperial Family, and the Xingluo Imperial Family. No one can question it."

"Oh, to put it bluntly, it means taking the back door?" After the master said this, the little monsters understood.

The master nodded slightly and said, "That's right. The Sun Moon Chamber of Commerce has a growing influence on the continent. It has gathered more than ten Title Douluo masters under its command. In addition to their terrifying financial resources, the three forces all want to recruit them. Under such circumstances, it is naturally very easy for them to participate in the competition, not to mention that there is no big backdoor."

At this point, the master smiled again and said, "However, no one cares what a soul guide is, and no one will take a group of guys who rely on external forces seriously. In the eyes of most people, the Sun Moon Academy team is here to send them off. After all, no one knows how powerful a soul master armed with soul guides is."

The master said this lightly, but Leng Xiyao saw the solemnity that flashed across his eyes. In addition, since they were marked on the map as being equally threatening as the Spirit Hall team, Leng Xiyao didn't believe that the master would be so short-sighted as to not take the Sun Moon Academy team seriously.

But since the master doesn't say anything now, I guess there will be other arrangements in the future.

"Let's not talk about these nonsense anymore. Next, I will arrange your battle strategy." The master put away the map, opened his small notebook again, and said seriously: "Although you have two more powerful substitutes in this competition, this is not a reason for you to relax."

"In each match, one of Jiangzhu and Tailong must play. In addition, Tang San, Xiaowu, Hongjun, Mubai, Zhuqing and Oscar, five of you six must play in each match. It is up to you to decide who does not play."

"The last position will be taken by Qinghan and Youmeng in turn, but don't expect too much. Their strength will be compressed to level 45, and Xiyao will find a way to temporarily seal the extra spirit rings to prevent others from noticing anything wrong."

"As for Rongrong, I will temporarily take her away for special training. I will not let her out until the finals."

After listening to the master's words, Xiao Wu waited and waited but didn't hear any other arrangements, so she couldn't help but ask: "Master, what about Sister Yaoyao? Isn't she going to play?"

Although Liu Qinghan and Youmeng are more powerful than each other, they both have expressions of admiration when they mention Leng Xiyao. Not to mention that Liu Qinghan was defeated by Leng Xiyao who was more than 30 levels higher than him, Youmeng is also instinctively afraid of Leng Xiyao. No one knows what Tianmeng did to him.

Even though Leng Xiyao hasn't fought against the little monsters for a long time, her position as Shrek's big sister has never been shaken.
