Douluo: Wuhun Magic Harp, summoning ancient beasts

Chapter 79 The finals begin

Bibi Dong knew that the gap between herself and Yu Xiaogang was getting deeper and deeper, almost insurmountable.

The two elders were so frightened that they lowered their heads and dared not even breathe.

After calming down a little, Bibi Dong slowly asked:
"What happened? Why did it fail?"

The ghost lowered his head and told the whole story in detail:

"Your Holiness, we were about to succeed, but at the critical moment, Jian Dao Chen Xin and Ning Feng Zhi suddenly appeared, and they...we..."

"Humph! Ning Fengzhi is getting more and more daring. He even dares to meddle in other people's business!"

Bibi Dong snorted angrily, a cold light flashing in her eyes.

"I've made note of the account with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Sooner or later, I will make them pay the price!"

After venting, Bibi Dong's emotions gradually stabilized.

"The failure of this mission is not entirely your fault. Go down first, and remember, don't let me down next time."

"Yes."

Yueguan and Guimei felt relieved, responded quickly, and then hurriedly left the hall.

After the two left, Bibi Dong came alone to the place where Yu Xiaogang had stood before.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, as if she wanted to absorb all the remaining breath of Yu Xiaogang into her body.

"Xiao Gang, after so many years, why are you still so cruel to me? I really don't want to hurt you, I just want you to understand me and read my heart... When will you understand my feelings?"

Bibi Dong murmured to herself, tears glistening in her eyes

Xue Qinghe led sixteen elite teams and marched towards Wuhun City in a mighty manner.

The bumpy ride along the way did not in the least distract Xiao Wu's persistence and determination.

She practiced hard all the time, just to break through level 40 before the finals officially arrived.

Finally, one morning in the dim light, the soul power surging in Xiao Wu's body seemed to break through some invisible shackles and successfully stepped into the threshold of level 40.

She was filled with joy and couldn't wait to tell Tang San the news.

"Brother, I did it! Level 40, I finally broke through!"

Hearing this, Tang San's face broke into a bright smile, his eyes filled with joy.

"Great! Xiao Wu, when you successfully obtain the fourth spirit ring, our Shrek team will have another member of the Fighting Spirit Sect, and our overall strength will surely be taken to a higher level."

Xiao Wu smiled lightly.

"Brother, I don't need to hunt soul beasts to obtain soul rings. I can get them directly through self-condensation."

Tang San smiled and nodded.

"This is what makes you special. However, it's not appropriate to do it here because there are too many people in the group. You should go out with Teacher Erlong and be careful."

"Brother, don't worry, everything will be fine. Then we will meet up in Wuhun City."

"it is good."

Afterwards, Xiao Wu and Liu Erlong left the team.

Shrek and the others were happy for Xiao Wu's breakthrough.

They knew Xiao Wu's identity as a soul beast and would keep it secret.

When Xiao Wu appeared in front of everyone again, she had an extra spirit ring.

The blessing of the fourth soul ring allowed her soul power to directly increase to level 41.

The fourth soul skill, Invincible Golden Body, gives her the ability to absolutely defend against enemies below the god level within three seconds, and her strength is also greatly improved.

Although Wuhun City is small, it gathers countless elite soul masters.

The whole city was welcoming the arrival of the finals with a lively atmosphere. Long Chen and his team and the Tiandou Empire's participating team were arranged to stay in a hotel on the west side of Wuhun City.

The finals will officially start in three days.

Each participating student can use this time to adjust their condition and ensure that they are in the best condition when the finals come.

Finally, the much-anticipated finals kicked off.

Under the guidance of the Spirit Hall's commissioner, the participating academies entered the competition venue located in the center of Spirit City in an orderly manner.

It was a huge arena built of solid granite and reinforced by huge soul guides. Its diameter was a hundred meters, demonstrating the importance that the Spirit Hall attached to this event.

There are circles of rest areas surrounding the stadium, providing each college with space to watch the game and rest.

In the VIP judging seats, representatives from the two empires and the elders of the Spirit Hall sat.

Although the auditorium is not large, it can accommodate thousands of soul masters.

Civilians are not allowed to watch the final of the Soul Master Competition. Only Soul Masters are qualified to watch.

The rules of the finals are simple and clear, with five rounds of matches.

The winner advances to the next round, and the loser is eliminated directly.

In the first round, three seeded teams out of the thirty-three teams will advance directly, while the remaining thirty teams will have to compete in a brutal knockout tournament for fifteen qualifying spots.

That is to say, fifteen teams will be eliminated on the first day of the competition.

As one of the seeded teams, Tiandou Royal Academy did not need to play on the first day.

But Long Chen and his teammates were not idle.

They came to the participating college's viewing area to familiarize themselves with the competition venue, and watched the competitions between other colleges to make full preparations for the upcoming competition.

Before the game officially started, a few people started chatting.

Duguyan said:
"Finally, the finals are here. We haven't been on stage for a long time."

Osro chuckled.

"Yeah, there's nothing good about being a seeded team. We can't even participate in the qualifiers and promotions. We don't even have a chance to show our strength."

Yufeng laughed and said:
"Don't be so ungrateful. We didn't even play a single game, but we made it directly to the second round of the finals. This is something that many participating teams dream of but cannot achieve."

Yu Tianheng nodded and continued:

"The finals will be decided in one match. Fifteen teams will be eliminated today. That means our opponents tomorrow will be among the remaining fifteen teams and the other two seeded teams, a total of seventeen teams. The real test has just begun."

Dugu Yan smiled disapprovingly.

"Tian Heng, you worry too much. With Long Chen and Ling Ling here, what is there to be afraid of?"

After hearing this, several people turned to look at Long Chen and Ye Lingling standing aside.

Long Chen has always been the most mysterious person in the team. Until now, no one knows what kind of strength he has.

Looking at Long Chen, a complex emotion flashed in Yu Tianheng's eyes.

Back then, when Long Chen first entered the Tiandou Royal Academy, his level was the same as his, and he had just reached the level of Battle Soul Venerable.

But now, Long Chen has already broken through level 50, while he is still at level 43.

During the accident on the way, Yu Tianheng also heard the conversation between Long Chen and the Spirit Hall's Elder Yue Guan, and learned that Long Chen had taken the Qirong Tongtianju Immortal Grass.

Yu Tianheng had no idea about magic herbs.

However, he guessed that the reason why Long Chen, Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan were able to achieve huge improvements in a short period of time must be related to taking the magic grass.
