Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 91: Wuhun City, Selection System
In the worship hall, Bibi Dong found Qian Daoliu again.

"You said that boy wouldn't cause us any trouble, but now, not only has he alleviated Xue Ye's poison, he has also joined forces with the people of Haotian Sect to compete for the position of the top three sects!"

Although Bibi Dong looked calm, she could not suppress the anger in her heart.

Although almost all the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex were killed, the remaining people were all in Xingrui City, so Bibi Dong couldn't take action no matter what.

The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is already progressing towards the direction of one sect, one country, and is very close to the headquarters of the Haotian Sect. They have already formed an alliance, so it would be difficult to completely eliminate them even if we take action now.

Although Tong Rui has been secretly helping Qian Renxue to accelerate the chaos in the Tiandou Empire, making it easier for the Wuhun Empire to capture Tiandou.

But he extended Xue Ye's life for another two years, and sheltered the remaining members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. He even formed an alliance with two sects and now occupies three sects.

Even Bibi Dong finds it difficult to understand what Tong Rui wants. Is he just trying to create chaos in the world?
"Tong Rui is now unable to move. You will understand when you see him."

Qian Daoliu was still facing the angel statue, but a smile appeared on his face.

Ever since Tong Rui stepped into Wuhun City, he had felt the aura of God. Although he didn't know why two strong auras blended together, he knew that this boy was Xiaoxue's perfect match.

In his life, Qian Renxue is the only person he has in his mind. It doesn't matter what happens to the Spirit Hall anymore.

After Bibi Dong left, he thought silently: "Even if Xiaoxue inherits the throne of the angel god and restores the glory of the angel clan, she will not be lonely in her life with Tong Rui accompanying her instead of me."

On the other side, Tong Rui and his group of fifteen people arrived at Wuhun City.

Compared to huge cities like Tiandou City and Xingrui City, Wuhun City is much smaller, not even one-tenth the size of Xingrui City.

Wuhun City is small in area, but its city walls are definitely built according to the capital city's standards. The eighty-meter-high city wall looks extremely majestic from the outside. The thickness of the city wall is also over thirty meters. It is completely repaired from granite.

The most peculiar thing is that Wuhun City is not a quadrilateral like ordinary cities, but a hexagon. In other words, it has a total of six walls. All the people responsible for patrolling on the city wall are soul masters, wearing the special clothes of Wuhun Palace.

On each of the six city walls, there is a huge relief, which is exactly the same as the one on the Wuhun Palace token. Symbolizing the six powerful martial spirits.

Walking into Wuhun City, one feels that it is empty. There are not many pedestrians on the streets, and there are few shops. Most of the shops sell items that soul masters need.

However, there are still some popular shops in the city, and that is the Chamber of Commerce under the Xingchen Sect. Every soul guide above level four will be sold out when it is released.

Every soul master living in this Wuhun City has a strong family background, so naturally they don't care about the forced acquisition by the Wuhun Hall.

This is both the flaw and the advantage of the Spirit Hall. Although its influence is huge and complicated, its overall strength far exceeds that of ordinary spirit masters.

The person who came to Wuhun City to welcome the Xingchen Sect was a cardinal. Under his leadership, the group was quickly settled down.

The members of Xingchen Sect were all arranged in the top luxury hotel. Not only was there a bedroom for each person, but there was also a dedicated conference room for them to use.

Here, even the staff in the hotel are all great soul masters with soul power of at least level 20.

After settling down, Tong Rui walked out of the hotel and carefully observed the retro yet solemn city of Wuhun City.

The hexagonal Wuhun City was built around a hill. On this hill, there are two very eye-catching buildings. The building halfway up the mountain is the most majestic and can be seen clearly even from such a distance.

It is a completely pillared structure with a dome and a golden facade that glitters in the sun. That is the new Papal Palace.

The other building is on the top of the hill. It is much smaller than the Pope's Palace, only about one-third the size of the Pope's Palace. The building structure is somewhat similar, but the facade is as white as jade.

There is the highest level existence in the Spirit Hall, the Douluo Hall.

Tong Rui was not interested, and out of respect, he did not go to observe the tomb of the Titled Douluo.

But when Tong Rui used his mental power to detect, he felt that the interior of the Pope's Palace was filled with a sacred and bright atmosphere. Tong Rui planned to observe it closely, reduce his mental fluctuations and release mental detection.

In addition to some powerful soul masters, there are two auras that are particularly eye-catching in Tong Rui's mind. One is full of evil and corrupt aura. After seeming to sense Tong Rui's spiritual power, it snorted coldly and broke through Tong Rui's spiritual detection. Tong Rui also knew that this was Bibi Dong, the successor of the Rakshasa God. Not only did she break through the spiritual detection, she even wanted to compete with Tong Rui's spiritual power in the air. Tong Rui didn't want to provoke this crazy woman, so he withdrew his spying on the Pope's Palace.

In another aura filled with holiness and light, Tong Rui clearly saw a handsome man who looked to be only thirty or forty years old.

There was a faint smile on his face, and his calm and peaceful aura gave people a very comfortable feeling.

He stood there, and after feeling Tong Rui's spiritual power, he did nothing. He just conveyed a good thought to Tong Rui and then blocked Tong Rui's perception of the hall.

This retro city is not as good as Xingrui City in terms of technology and defense, so after Tong Rui scanned the entire Wuhun City with his mental power, he returned to the hotel after appreciating it and prepared to discuss the battle strategy.

At this time, all fifteen people were sitting in the conference room, holding a pre-match mobilization meeting.

Tong Qingtian spoke first, "In a few days, the selection of the seven major sects will begin. Xiao Rui, you have just come out of retreat, so I will explain the rules to you first."

"This sect selection competition is divided into a youth group and a high-level soul master group. The youth group requires soul masters to be under 25 years old, while the high-level soul master group requires at least one soul master above the Soul Douluo level. In addition."

At this point, Tong Qingtian looked at Tong Rui helplessly and said, "The Spirit Hall specifically pointed out this time that in order to prevent some sects from having too few people and filling in the numbers, everyone can only choose one group to participate."

As soon as these words came out, Dugu Yan couldn't help laughing first: "To put it bluntly, isn't it because they are afraid that Xiao Rui will kill randomly in the youth group?"

Yes, this rule is obviously aimed at Tong Rui. Apart from the Spirit Hall, who dares to say that young people under the age of 25 can participate in the battle between high-level spirit masters?

"Then I'll choose the high-level spirit master group. If I choose the youth group now, I'll violate the three sects' covenant if I don't kill them indiscriminately, and indiscriminate killing will anger the Spirit Hall. Besides, the key to the decision should still depend on the battles of the high-level spirit masters."

Tong Qingtian nodded and continued, "This competition adopts a points system, and each victory earns one point. This is probably a rule made by the Spirit Hall to restrict our three sects."

Shi Duantian nodded: "That's right, in the battle between high-level spirit masters, it is not easy for the Spirit Hall to insert spirit masters from other sects, but in the battle between the youth groups, the Spirit Hall's spirit masters can be inserted at will to fight."

Tong Rui nodded: "This is also good news. At least the more famous golden generation cannot join the battlefield. According to my observation, Hu Liena has reached level 61 soul power, and the other two are both at level 58. If they join the battle, they will kill everyone except us."

Tong Qingtian continued, "There are 16 teams participating in this competition, which will be divided into five elimination rounds."

“在第一轮，每支队伍都会与不同赛区的对手随机配对，进行一轮单场胜负赛。这一轮比赛将产生8支1胜0负的队伍与8支0胜1负的队伍。第二轮又将进行8场单场胜负赛——8支1胜0负的队伍之间进行4场比赛，8支0胜1负的队伍之间也进行4场比赛。”

“第二轮结束后，将产生4支2胜0负的不败队伍，4支0胜2负的不胜队伍，以及8支在前两场比赛中各有胜负，最终取得1胜1负的队伍。”

"In the third round, the four teams with 2 wins and 0 losses will play a best-of-three match. The winner will advance to the knockout round, and the loser will continue to participate in the fourth round. The four teams with 0 wins and 2 losses will also play a best-of-three match. The loser will be eliminated from the seven major selections, and the winner will continue to participate in the fourth round."

“第四轮还剩余12支队伍，其中6支战绩为2胜1负，6支为1胜2负。6支2胜1负的队伍将进行三局两胜制比赛，决出3名胜者晋级淘汰赛。”

"By the fifth round, there are six teams left, all with a record of 6 wins and 2 losses. These six teams will play the final three best-of-three games. The three winners will advance to the knockout round."

"Finally, the eight qualified teams completed the points round and were ranked according to the youth group and high-level soul master group."

Tong Rui was overwhelmed when he heard this rule. To put it simply, this was the mechanism of the Swiss wheel. He also understood the Spirit Hall's plan.

"This competition mechanism is indeed very fair. To outsiders, the ranking of the selected teams is clear at a glance, but the hidden mechanism inside reveals that it is targeting the three sects everywhere."

Everyone present was a little puzzled. This competition system was the best choice for them. As long as they won all the games and came first, they could observe the strength of the next sect.

In this way, whether in acquiring intelligence or recovering resources, their sect will have a far greater advantage than other sects.

After the three sects compete like this, even if the weakest Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect can achieve victory as soon as possible, it can just watch the other sects fight each other.

"Indeed, in this competition system, the more powerful the sect, the more advantages it has, especially for sects like us and Haotian Sect, which have several titles. However, this is also the flaw, because this competition can really determine the winner."
