Douluo: The Peerless King of Beast Tamers

Chapter 155: The Prototype of the Soul Method, the Competition Begins!
With the help of the gray soul ring on his body, Zhou Sichen experimented with the effects of some undead magic fusion soul skills, which amazed Alex.

After gaining some in-depth understanding of the magic of the dead, Zhou Sichen no longer wasted time. If he wanted to truly master the magic of the dead, it would take time to accumulate.

Now, he still needs to familiarize himself with this undead demiplane.

Zhou Sichen strolled in this space, his gray soul ring swelled in the wind, like a gray sun rising.

Endless light bloomed and poured into every corner of the undead demiplane. A terrifying and enormous pressure descended from the sky, forcing countless undead creatures to crawl on the ground.

All the undead in this space, seeing the gray soul ring transformed into the "sun", instinctively knelt down.

Among them, only some particularly powerful undead creatures dared to roar at the gray sun, attempting to fight against the power of heaven.

Seal of the Lord!

Whoever has it is the master of the demiplane of the undead.

At this moment, Zhou Sichen is the ruler of this undead demiplane and the new master here.

When Zhou Sichen arrived at the center of this space where the aura of undead was the strongest, he saw three huge monsters, each thirty meters away, from afar.

They are majestic and exude a terrifying kingly aura. Apart from the real owner here, they are the absolute overlords.

There were three ferocious and terrifying bone dragons, with dark green flames flickering in their eye sockets, looking extremely majestic and ferocious!
No matter in which world, dragons are the top existences, and these three undead bone dragons are even more so.

After countless years of fighting and transformation, he eventually became a super powerful being in this undead demiplane, ruling over all directions!

Judging from their aura, these are three terrifying beings comparable to the Titled Douluo level, and the strongest among them is even comparable to a Super Douluo.

At this moment, Zhou Sichen's sudden appearance naturally attracted the attention of the three kings, but when they felt the absolute dominance and pressure from Zhou Sichen, they all lowered their proud heads.

In front of the Seal of the Lord, no matter how they dominate this undead demiplane, they still dare not go against the will of the Lord.

Zhou Sichen's mouth curled up slightly. These were all his trump cards...

Electrolux smiled slightly: "Si Chen, do you like this gift?"

Of course Zhou Sichen likes it and wishes there were more of them.

"Master Yi, thank you for your gift. I will never let this undead demiplane down. One day, I will make it bloom with true glory in Douluo Continent."

Yi Lao was very pleased: "You are extremely talented in necromancy, and I believe you can do it."

……

In the following time, Zhou Sichen would discuss necromancy with Yi Lao whenever he had time. Meanwhile, Yi Lao's sudden inspiration had also begun to take shape.

He envisioned using undead magic to sign a contract with the soul beast, allowing the soul beast to become the same existence as the soul beast contracted by Zhou Sichen.

However, the object of the contract signed by the necromancy magic is not a living person, but a lifeless person.

This means that this kind of contract can only contract the soul, and it does not have the same effect as Zhou Sichen's contract book martial soul.

Based on Mr. Yi's ideas, Zhou Sichen went on to explain some of the clever ideas of the soul method.

As Yi Lao listened, his eyes became brighter, as if the clouds had cleared and the sun was shining.

He once again marveled at Zhou Sichen's power, that he could actually come up with such a clever idea, worthy of being the successor with such a high talent in undead magic.

Zhou Sichen just smiled faintly, hiding his achievements and fame.

He couldn't say that these were things that you, Mr. Yi, could have thought of and done, and that the students were just opening up your mind in advance...

After becoming Zhou Sichen's third martial soul, Alex no longer had to worry about disappearing again, and he became more active every day.

Try your best to recall everything that this spiritual consciousness remembers, and give it to Zhou Sichen without reservation.

He had a premonition that in the near future, this "third" disciple of His would also bring Him great surprises and unexpected gains.

If he continues to grow like this, he will not only be able to help resurrect Him in the future, but he may also be able to recover other fragments of his divine consciousness. He, the Holy God of the Dead, and the Undead Scourge will once again shine with the glory of a true "God of Death"!

The night before the game, Zhou Sichen, with a beaming face, gathered everyone together. A total of fourteen people, including the regular players and the preliminaries, sat down in the conference room.

Zhou Sichen spoke calmly, "The competition will begin tomorrow, and you should all calm down. Although the championship is almost certain to win based on your abilities, in order to avoid unexpected situations, each of you needs to give 100% of your effort."

The others nodded: "Understood!"

Zhou Sichen continued, "I think everyone already knows that there are a total of 133 high-level soul master academies and high-level soul instructor academies participating in the competition this time."

"The first preliminary round of the competition is an elimination match. The competition format is a seven-on-seven team battle. The losing team will be eliminated directly."

"According to the information I have collected in the past two days, as long as there is no Soul King-level soul master in the team we meet in the elimination round, then your preliminary team will win the victory for the academy."

Hearing this, Cao Jinxuan, Beibei, Xu Sanshi and others' eyes suddenly lit up. The first game of the competition was actually allowed to start with the pre-selected players?
As the defending champion, the first game of the competition must be opened by Shrek Academy.

Are we just going to give them this much-anticipated opportunity?
Xu Sanshi said excitedly: "Brother Zhou, you are a gentleman who sticks to his word. You can't go back on your decision!"

Zhou Sichen laughed: "Of course. But if you lose the game against an opponent who doesn't even have a Soul King, and cause Shrek to lose its ten thousand years of honor, the consequences will be borne by you."

Hearing this, everyone's heart trembled instantly. They couldn't bear the blame for this.

Cao Jinxuan smiled and said, "Brother, I accept this military order. If we lose, as the captain, I will commit suicide to apologize!"

Hearing this, Beibei, Xu Sanshi and others looked at Cao Jinxuan in surprise.

Xu Sanshi couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Brother, are you so confident? Have you ever considered our opinions?"

What if the opponent is all Soul Masters? We still have a Level 31 Soul Master in our team!"

Just after Cao Jinxuan finished speaking, Wang Dong, the only Soul Master in the team, was the first to stand up: "I accepted it too! Everyone has seen how well our preliminary players have cooperated during this period. This is an opportunity for Brother Zhou to give us a chance to perform. Don't you have any confidence at all?"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Sanshi instantly became excited: "You must be joking! Who am I, Xu Sanshi of Eternal Control, afraid of? Not to mention a team without a Soul King, even if there is one, I am not afraid!"

Jiang Nannan couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard Xu Sanshi bragging.

But she also has confidence in her heart.

The same is true for Beibei, Cai Tou and Long Xiangyue.

Looking at the passionate performance of the qualifying players, Ye Guyi and others looked at each other but did not speak.

They would not question Zhou Sichen's decision.

What's more, for them, except for those strong teams, the other soul master academies don't need them to take action at all.

Not to mention the two Soul Saints Ye Guyi and Ma Xiaotao, even the Soul Emperor Dai Yueheng thought so.

With his soul power level of 64, no one can match him in this competition except the two Soul Saints around him.

Dai Yuheng felt that there was no need for Zhou Sichen, Ye Guyi and Ma Xiaotao to take action. He, Gong Yangmo, Ling Luochen, Dugu Xianmeng and the qualifying team members were enough to bring a championship back to Shrek.

Zhou Sichen and Cao Jinxuan looked at each other, and the two brothers sang in unison, which aroused the fire in everyone's hearts. When the competition begins, everyone will definitely show their best skills, and no one wants to lose face.

Zhou Sichen tapped the table lightly: "Before I came here, my idea was to have the regular players start the game, and then use the thunderous momentum to scare away other colleges, and you, the preliminary players, just follow suit."

"But now, I have changed my mind. This year's tournament will focus on you, the preliminaries. If you encounter a team you can't beat, you can ask the regulars for help. But every time you ask for help, you will owe them a favor."

"If you can't put aside your pride and lose the game by being stubborn, then you know the price you will pay. I don't need to explain too much to what Master Xuan will do."

After listening to Zhou Sichen's words, the excitement that had just risen in Beibei, Xu Sanshi and others was instantly extinguished halfway.

"What?! The preliminaries are used as regular players, and the regular players are used as off-field players?!" Even Bei Bei, who is usually calm, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise at this moment.

Xu Sanshi said somewhat embarrassedly: "Brother Zhou, you... don't you think too highly of us?"

Personal relationships are secondary. They don’t believe in themselves. After all, apart from Shrek Academy, other academies also have Soul Emperors.

Their strongest is no more than four rings, if they get out of control...

Zhou Sichen listened silently to their discussion without saying a word.

As the captain of the preliminary team, Cao Jinxuan was the first to respond: "No problem for me. I believe I can lead everyone to win glory for Shrek." Long Xiangyue grinned: "I think this suggestion is good, brother. After all, Sister Gu Yi and Xiao Tao are too strong. If they take action, we won't have any chance, right?"

Ye Guyi and Ma Xiaotao looked at each other. They actually didn’t care.

Ever since they broke through level 70 and became Soul Sages, they have become more aware of the huge gap between having a martial soul avatar and not having one.

So they came to participate in the competition just to accompany Zhou Sichen and to prevent any accidents from happening during the competition.

With their current strength, they have no rivals among their peers.

Just as Dai Yuheng thought, in fact, there was no need for the two Soul Saints and the monster Zhou Sichen at all. Dai Yuheng and the others were enough to win the game.

Zhou Sichen made the decision directly: "Okay, this matter is settled. Everyone, go back and have a good rest and prepare for the competition tomorrow."

After saying that, Zhou Sichen stood up and left the meeting room. The regular team members followed him and left, leaving only a group of pre-selected team members chattering in the meeting room.

Bei Bei looked at Cao Jinxuan and said, "Captain, you and Brother Zhou are singing the same tune. You don't really think that as the preliminary team members, we have the ability to defeat those strong teams with Soul Emperors, right?"

Cao Jinxuan smiled faintly: "With our current strength, it will be difficult to face those strong teams, but do you think Big Brother will really not let the regular players participate?"

"He said those words just to put some pressure on us and to polish us better."

"If we really encounter a tough opponent, we will be nothing more than a bigger ant in front of Sister Gu Yi and the others. We just need to do our best, and Big Brother will take care of the rest."

After hearing this, everyone calmed down.

Wang Dong's eyes were full of brilliance: "I am not afraid of a Soul Master, so what are you afraid of? You want to retreat when you encounter a little difficulty, you are worse than Yu Hao!"

Hearing this, Xu Sanshi was unhappy: "Wang Dong, I think you are a little bit arrogant. You have even learned to brag."

Wang Dongcai was not afraid of him: "If we were at the same level, you might not be my opponent. I am just telling the truth."

Jiang Nannan nodded in agreement: "I think Wang Dong is right."

Xu Sanshi was heartbroken. His goddess actually helped Wang Dong!

Afterwards, the seven of them stopped arguing and began to discuss various tactics so that they could better demonstrate their strengths when the time came.

Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue looked at each other silently. They knew that this was the opportunity given to them by their eldest brother.

Zhou Sichen didn't want to let only Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue steal the spotlight, so he chose to do this.

Even if we know that this is selfish, we will not let others talk about it.

What's more, as long as Cao Jinxuan and Long Xiangyue show enough talent and potential, the academy will give them real resources!

Shrek Academy has stood for thousands of years, so it must have a lot of spirit bones in reserve. Zhou Sichen naturally has to make more plans for his two good brothers.

……

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into Xingluo City, the capital of the Xingluo Empire revealed a solemn atmosphere.

All the streets around Xingluo Square were blocked by solemn and dignified soldiers, especially near the Xinghuang Hotel, where there were thousands of soldiers stationed.

The streets leading from here to Xingluo Square have been completely under martial law, and only the team members from each academy who walked out of the Star Emperor Hotel can pass.

The competition stage for this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition is built in front of the main gate of the imperial city in Xingluo Square. His Majesty the Emperor of the Xingluo Empire and his civil and military officials can watch the battle from the top of the imperial city.

This not only provides the best view, but also ensures safety.

The entire competition stage is 100 meters long and 5 meters high. There are a total of 108 metal pillars around the competition stage.

These metal pillars are not decorations, but large-scale protective soul guides that are linked together.

After the competition begins, one hundred and eight soul masters will take charge of the protection of the competition stage. These metal pillars will form a protective shield to block all soul skills inside from escaping, so as not to damage the imperial city or hurt innocent people.

At this time, Xingluo Square was empty. Except for the soldiers in the distance, there was no one in the square.

The Imperial City is on the north side, facing south, and a luxurious rest area is built on the west side of the competition stage, which is specially provided for the participating teams from each college.

Since the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition was changed to the current competition system, apart from the final stage of the competition, the most exciting part is actually the first round of eliminations.

Because of the cruelty of the competition system, its excitement and even cruelty far exceeded the subsequent round-robin competition.

There can be tactical arrangements in the round-robin tournament, and even tactical failures, but if you lose in this first round, there will be no chance for another chance.

Any participating academy must pass this level, even the previous champion Shrek Academy.

Early in the morning, the leading teachers from each college had already arrived at the Imperial City to draw lots based on the competition number plates they received when registering.

Master Xuan was still missing, so Zhou Sichen, the team leader, went to draw the lots.

When Zhou Sichen went to draw lots, the staff were all stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that the person who came would be the captain of the Shrek team.

But Shrek's reputation was there, so no one said anything when Zhou Sichen served as the team leader.

At this point, the draw ceremony has been completed, and once the competition order is announced, the final preparations for the competition will be completed.

The sun slowly rose into the sky from the distant east, and a sense of warmth suddenly rose in Xingluo City, which was located in the middle of the continent.

After the audience entered, the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire gave an opening speech as usual, and then announced the start of the competition.

Just like the original novel, the first battle is between the Douling Empire's Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy and the number one academy on the continent, Shrek, which has stood for thousands of years.

Following the announcement from the competition host, the atmosphere in the entire Xingluo Plaza suddenly reached its peak.

"Shrek, Shrek, Shrek..."

Countless people cheered the name of Shrek Academy. In their hearts, Shrek would undoubtedly win in the elimination round. At the same time, they also wanted to see the style of Shrek's younger generation!

At this moment, the seven members of Tianling College were already standing on the competition stage, but each of them was visibly trembling.

Especially their captain, he felt extremely miserable.

I originally thought that I could represent the college in the competition, win a good ranking for the college, and make a name for myself in the mainland.

But I didn’t expect that the team I was drawn into for the first elimination match would be Shrek Academy!
What is Shrek Academy?! It is the unshakable champion of every competition!
He is only level 47, how dare he lead the team to fight against Shrek Academy?
However, when the seven people from Shrek Academy appeared, the captain of Tianling Academy couldn't help but wipe his eyes.

The seven people in front of him all look too young. One of them looks only twelve or thirteen years old. It's obvious that he is a qualifying player, right?

None of Shrek's main players are on the field?
How much does this show that he looks down on Tianling Academy?

The fear and trepidation before gradually turned into anger...

Opposite them, Cao Jinxuan, Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Long Xiangyue, He Caitou, Jiang Nannan and Wang Dong had grim expressions on their faces.

Today, everyone in Shrek Academy is wearing the traditional dark green school uniform, which is the standard color of the Shrek team uniform.

Although this color doesn't look so...but it is the glory that Shrek Academy has accumulated through its strength over thousands of years.

As long as people see this outfit, countless people will admire and worship it!
Below the stage, Zhou Sichen, Ye Guyi, Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yaoheng, Ling Luochen, Dugu Xianmeng and Gong Yangmo just watched calmly.

In the second row behind them was the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. They were looking at the backs of the seven regular Shrek team members with disbelief.

This was the first time in the history of the competition that the format was changed, and only seven young qualifying players were sent to the knockout stage.

Aren't they afraid of getting into trouble and Shrek Academy being eliminated in the knockout round of this competition?
The next moment, when the referee announced the release of the martial spirit, the preliminaries of the Shrek team on the competition stage told the answer to all those who had doubts in their hearts.

Cao Jinxuan and the other seven people released their martial spirits, and all of them displayed a combination of two yellow and two purple spirit rings. Even though there was one person with three rings, his spirit ring configuration was only one yellow and two purple!
The preliminary team is the Six Soul Sect and the One Soul Master, this is Shrek Academy!
Opposite them, seven people from Tianling Academy also released their martial spirits, including five Soul Masters and two Soul Lords.

The strongest lineup of Tianling Academy is actually not as good as Shrek’s preliminary lineup?
"Shrek...Shrek...Shrek..."

Instantly, the whole audience burst into loud cheers again.

It turns out that it wasn't that Shrek Academy was so arrogant that it looked down on all the other academies, but that the worst lineup of Shrek Academy was actually better than that of Tianling Academy!
Behind Zhou Sichen and the others, everyone at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy narrowed their eyes as they watched this scene. Thinking of the list that they had obtained through some means, a chill rose in their hearts.

Their gazes finally focused on Ye Guyi and Ma Xiaotao, and they were still filled with disbelief!
