Douluo: I am an evil soul master, working from nine to five in the Tang Sect

Chapter 107 Continental Elite Soul Master Competition

"The Continental Elite Soul Master Competition, what is that?"

Hearing Luo Chen's words, Xiao Xiao and Wang Dong both looked extremely surprised, but Huo Yuhao was the only one who looked bewildered, with a bit of helplessness in his eyes. He asked in a slightly puzzled tone.

"No way, Yuhao, you don't even know what the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition is? My God, this is basic common sense that every soul master should know!"

Seeing that Huo Yuhao didn't even know what the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition represented, Wang Dong asked him in surprise. Even Xiao Xiao who was standing beside him looked at Huo Yuhao in surprise.

However, facing Wang Dong's question, Huo Yuhao scratched the back of his head embarrassedly and explained:

"I'm not really clear about this. You know, I usually don't pay much attention to these things. I only care about my own training tasks, so... I really don't know what the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition is."

"But to be able to play as a regular member of the Shrek team, you must be very strong. I think you have a place in the inner courtyard, right?"

Although Huo Yuhao had never heard of the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition, he had a deep understanding of Shrek Academy. Being able to stand out in Shrek Academy was enough to prove Ma Xiaotao's talent and strength.

Among the stories that Huo Yuhao had read since he was a child, Shrek Academy and Tang Sect were the places he had always longed for. One was the number one academy on the continent with a history of more than ten thousand years and an unrivaled status in the entire continent. It had countless powerful people and an extremely glorious history.

The Tang Sect is an ancient sect with a history of ten thousand years. It was once the number one sect on the continent. It possesses countless unique Tang Sect skills and plays a vital role on the continent. Therefore, in Huo Yuhao's eyes, even if the Tang Sect is now in decline, its status is still on par with Shrek Academy.

Ma Xiaotao in front of him was able to become a regular member of Shrek Academy at such a young age, so her strength should not be underestimated. However, from Huo Yuhao's perspective, the sense of oppression given by Ma Xiaotao in front of him was still not as great as that of Luo Chen next to him.

After all, he knew Luo Chen's situation too well. He could easily kill a thousand-year soul beast when he was in the second ring, and he could even kill a ten-thousand-year soul beast alone when he was in the third ring. As for now, he has even broken through the realm of a four-ring soul master. Once he makes a move, he will definitely be able to suppress the so-called five-ring soul king!
With Huo Yuhao's current spiritual power of a five-ring soul king and the purple magic pupil of the mustard seed realm, he can naturally see some details very clearly. For example, when Luo Chen saw Ma Xiaotao at the beginning, there was no panic in his eyes at all, only a calm look.

On the other hand, Ma Xiaotao's eyes originally did not reveal any color, but after seeing Luo Chen, her eyes suddenly became flustered. Although that panic was hidden very deeply, it was still caught by Huo Yuhao.

This is also the main reason why Huo Yuhao judged that Ma Xiaotao was not as strong as Luo Chen. However, Luo Chen’s current strength still shocked Huo Yuhao, and the most important thing was Luo Chen’s speed of progress.

Originally, he thought that his progress was barely on par with Luo Chen, but he didn't expect that the other party's progress was far beyond his imagination. He was a real monster!

At the beginning, when Luo Chen was still at the second ring, Huo Yuhao still had hope of catching up, but when Luo Chen quietly broke through to the third ring Soul Master in one fell swoop, this hope was shattered.

The gap between one ring and three rings is extremely huge. It is not just the gap between two soul rings, but the gap in all aspects. Even if Huo Yuhao's mental power has now reached the level of a five-ring soul king, he is still unable to compete with Luo Chen in terms of strength when he was a three-ring soul lord.

Although he could rely on the five-ring level of mental power to forcibly defeat Xie Huanyue, who had the cultivation level of a three-ring Soul Master, Xie Huanyue's cultivation level of mental power was completely incomparable to Luo Chen. Luo Chen's strength could not be measured by his own realm at all.

This is the most profound truth that Huo Yuhao has realized after such a long period of contact with Luo Chen. If one uses Luo Chen’s realm to measure Luo Chen’s strength, then one will definitely suffer a great loss!
After all, when Luo Chen was only a second-ring great soul master, he was already able to defeat Xu Sanshi, who was at the third-ring soul lord level. When he had just broken through to the third-ring soul lord level, he could even kill a ten-thousand-year soul beast alone. The gap between him and a normal soul master is not even a little bit!
Therefore, according to Huo Yuhao's current judgment, Luo Chen, who possesses four ten-thousand-year soul rings, may be strong enough to compete with a six-ringed Soul Emperor. After all, the four ten-thousand-year soul rings provide Luo Chen with more than just soul power and physical fitness!
Now Luo Chen's total soul power alone has surpassed that of an ordinary five-ring soul king. As for his physical fitness and mental strength, let alone that. If he did not have the mental strength and physical fitness of a soul emperor, it would be impossible for him to withstand the blessing of four ten-thousand-year soul rings.

As for his strength, it became even more amazing after he broke through the Four-Ring Soul Sect. The Four-Ring Soul Sect realm might not be a big deal in Shrek Academy. After all, any senior student in the Shrek Outer Academy has the talent to break through.

However, being able to defeat a five-ring soul king or even a six-ring soul emperor with the cultivation of a four-ring soul master is not normal. What's more, Luo Chen is only a first-year student in the outer courtyard.

However, as a first-year student in the External College, when freshmen were just entering the Advanced College, Luo Chen had already reached a height that many external college students could never reach in their entire lives. His strength was like a monstrous one, having leapt across countless small classes.

What's even more terrifying is that, based on Huo Yuhao's understanding of Luo Chen, this is the strength that Luo Chen "deliberately" displayed on the surface. His own strength cannot be that simple. After all, Luo Chen is a person who says he is ten out of five. The strength he shows cannot possibly be his true combat power.

There are definitely unimaginable hidden cards!
Keep more trump cards and more deceptions. This principle was taught to him by Luo Chen himself. Huo Yuhao has not forgotten it until now. After all, with his current strength, it is not as simple as just defeating a three-ring soul master...

At this moment, in Huo Yuhao's eyes, although Ma Xiaotao's soul power fluctuations were much stronger than Luo Chen's, but in terms of real strength, she was still not good enough. Realm is one aspect, and strength is another.

"The All-Continental Elite Soul Master Competition is actually just what it means literally. It is a competition held by all the major empires in the entire continent for all elite soul masters. Among them, there are many soul master geniuses that you can't see in normal times."

“That being said, with the background of our Shrek Academy, even though most of the contestants in this competition are rare genius spirit masters, the championship of each session is often won by our Shrek Academy.”

"And every time we at Shrek Academy have defeated the other side with overwhelming force, we don't give them any chances at all. It can be said that this continent-wide elite soul master competition is simply the exclusive show of our Shrek Academy."

Seeing that Huo Yuhao didn't understand what the All-Continental Elite Soul Master Competition meant, Luo Chen patiently explained to him. Although he had not participated in the All-Continental Elite Soul Master Competition, in the inner courtyard, those hard-working inner courtyard students were almost all training for this goal. After all, who in the inner courtyard didn't want to participate as a regular member of Shrek Academy and show their talents to the whole continent!

However, even among the students in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy, there is still a gap between them. For example, Ma Xiaotao in front of him, although her talent is not as good as that of a monster like Zhang Lexuan, her strength is also beyond the reach of ordinary inner courtyard students.

Among her peers, Ma Xiaotao's strength is the best in the entire inner courtyard. At the age of only 20, she has reached the level of a six-ring Soul Emperor. Her strength is simply not comparable to that of ordinary inner courtyard students. Therefore, she is also the captain of the Shrek team in this year's All-Continent Elite Soul Master Competition.

"Brother Luo, are you talking about the Talented Soul Master Competition held across the continent every five years?"

After listening to Luo Chen’s explanation, Huo Yuhao also remembered something and couldn’t help but ask him.

"Yes, you are clear about this, aren't you? On this continent, almost every soul master has paid attention to the news of this competition to some extent. Even ordinary people who are not soul masters are very familiar with this competition."

"Being able to become a regular member of the Shrek Academy in the Elite Soul Master Competition means that one's own strength and talent are the best in Shrek Academy."

“Speaking of which, Senior Sister Ma Xiaotao is also the captain of our Shrek Academy team participating in this year’s competition. Now that she has reached the level of a six-ringed Soul Emperor, she would definitely be the winner even in previous competitions!”

As Luo Chen spoke, there was something odd in the look in his eyes as he looked at Ma Xiaotao.

"Six-ringed Soul Emperor! Doesn't that mean he has the same level of cultivation as our teacher Zhou? Oh my God!"

After hearing Luo Chen's words, Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao's eyes were filled with extreme surprise. They simply could not imagine that this senior sister in front of them, who looked not much different in age from them, was actually a Soul Emperor-level powerhouse whose cultivation was almost as strong as Zhou Yi's!
You should know that in the entire outer courtyard, the strongest cultivator is only a three-ring Soul Master, but the senior sister in front of you has directly reached the six-ring Soul Emperor level, which is far beyond the three-ring Soul Master!
Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao both looked dazed, looking at Ma Xiaotao, whose expression did not change at all. They had also made a judgment about Ma Xiaotao's strength. After all, according to rumors, the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy was basically full of students at the five-ring soul king level.

But unexpectedly, Ma Xiaotao completely surpassed this level and reached the six-ring Soul Emperor level. Even though there is only a big difference in realm, in terms of strength, a six-ring Soul Emperor can completely suppress two five-ring Soul Kings!

Even Ma Xiaotao's martial spirit, the Evil Fire Phoenix, can burst out with strength comparable to that of a Seven-Ring Soul Saint!
“Of course, as a student of the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy, and the most talented one in recent years, how can she not be strong? But it’s a pity that Senior Sister Xiaotao has a defect in her martial spirit, otherwise she might have cultivated to the level of a seven-ringed soul saint by now.”

Hearing Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao's surprised words, Xu Sanshi, who was standing by, echoed them after swallowing the grilled fish in his mouth.

As the Xuanming Turtle Martial Soul that Ma Xiaotao uses as a power bank on a daily basis, Xu Sanshi knows better how terrifying Ma Xiaotao's talent is. The Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul, the power of this evil fire is simply not comparable to normal fire.

Even if it is ice energy with extreme ice attributes, if one wants to suppress the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao's body, his cultivation level must at least be close to Ma Xiaotao's, otherwise he will not be able to suppress the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao's body.

Even under the torture of such horrific evil fire, Ma Xiaotao was still able to rely on her own talent to cultivate to the realm of the Six-Ring Soul Emperor and become the strongest genius in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy in recent years. This has also proved her talent.

However, just after Xu Sanshi finished speaking, Ma Xiaotao also finished eating the grilled fish handed to her by Huo Yuhao. A look of unsatisfied taste flashed across her eyes, but she still explained to Huo Yuhao and the others:

"Xiao Xu is wrong about one thing. The strongest talent in Shrek Academy in recent years is not me. Although the cultivation level of a Six-ringed Soul Emperor is indeed very high among the inner courtyard, what we at Shrek Academy value is not just cultivation level."

"Ah? Is there a genius with a stronger talent than you, Senior?"

Seeing that Ma Xiaotao did not admit her identity as the strongest genius of Shrek Academy, Xu Sanshi could not help but flash a hint of doubt in his eyes. He also had some connections in the inner courtyard, and according to the information provided by the seniors in the inner courtyard.

Right now in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy, Ma Xiaotao should be the most talented student, otherwise she would not be able to serve as the captain of the Shrek Academy team in the All-Continental Elite Soul Master Competition.

He didn't think that there was any student in Shrek Academy with more powerful talent than Ma Xiaotao.

"Of course there is. Isn't this guy in front of me one of them?"

As she spoke, Ma Xiaotao turned her gaze towards Luo Chen, who was sitting next to Huo Yuhao and eating grilled fish with a very contented look on his face, with a complex look in her eyes.

"he?!"

Seeing that Ma Xiaotao was actually directing her words towards Luo Chen, Xu Sanshi's eyebrows raised involuntarily, and his voice trembled uncontrollably.
