Chapter 225 Snow Emperor's Accomplice
The next morning.

When the first ray of sunlight shone on Xingluo City, the whole city was in an uproar.

Countless people flocked to Xingluo Square from all directions.

All the streets around the square have been put under martial law, with thousands of soldiers in distinctive armor stationed there, forming a pedestrian passage that only participants can enter.

The fighting spirit competition venue is located on the north side of Xingluo Square, but surprisingly, its arena area is not very large, only about 100 by 100, or square meters. However, its location is excellent, right in front of the main gate of the imperial city, very suitable for the Xingluo Emperor to overlook from a high vantage point.

In addition, there are 108 metal pillars erected on the edge of the arena, and there are special protections for soul masters next to the metal pillars. Just like an octagonal cage, once a soul master enters the competition, the soul skills inside will not hurt people outside, making the viewing environment safer.

Ten thousand years ago, such a competition already existed during the Spirit Hall era. Now, with the rapid rise of soul guides, its rules are naturally more complicated and exciting. After all, soul guides have no eyes, and a stray arrow can probably kill a large number of people.

Today is the opening ceremony of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition and also the first day of the elimination round.

The outskirts of Xingluo Square were already crowded with people, flags were waving, and gongs and drums were beating. Of course, watching this kind of game was not free. The ticket price was two gold soul coins a day. The seats for watching were the most common standing tickets, located on the edge of the square. A series of high platforms were built artificially to prevent people at the back from being unable to see anything.

There is also a rest area exclusively for colleges on the west side of the competition, but it only has 70 seats. There are more than 130 colleges and universities participating in this competition, which is just enough for the survivors of the audition elimination round to sit. As for the losers, they can just go back to where they came from.

However, I have to say that the prices here are really high. When I first found out about it, even Lin You couldn't help but secretly complain.

Do you know how much a palm-sized black carp costs?

Two bronze soul coins.

Do you know how much a box lunch costs? Ten bronze soul coins! And that's a decent meal with one meat and two vegetables. Based on that purchasing power, it's roughly equivalent to a one-day ticket for around five or six thousand RMB. And that's for the outermost area. If you're too far away, you probably won't even be able to tell if the soul masters competing are human or ghost.

If you want to see clearly, you have to pay more.

It's no wonder that this competition can collect a year's worth of tax revenue from the entire Xingluo Empire. It's really sucking the blood of the people, but the people are actually happy about it, and Lin You has no choice.

After all, he couldn't possibly start a speech in a beer hall? He was living a good life.

As time went by, it was soon time to enter.

The participating teams from various colleges, led by their respective team leaders, arrived at the square one after another.

"Look, that's the Shrek Academy team!"

“Wow, they’re coming!”

As soon as the Shrek Academy team appeared, it immediately caused a huge sensation.

Although this dark green school uniform looks weird no matter how you look at it, it cannot withstand the reputation that is earned through real strength. Under this kind of strength and beauty, the aesthetic taste of the outside public has been strengthened for nearly ten thousand years. Now no matter how you look at it, this outfit seems to be quite handsome.

Afterwards, countless eyes were focused on Lin Yuan and Huo Yujian at the front. The other inner and outer court students consciously followed the two as the spearhead and entered one after another.

These gazes contained admiration, envy, jealousy, curiosity, and the kind of respect that only belongs to the strong, but it was unreserved.

Lin You's face was calm and he didn't look around, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

"Wow, there are so many people!" Xiaoxiao couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Yes, it's worthy of being the imperial capital. It's even more lively than our Qibao City!" Wu Feng also echoed.

"This is the atmosphere a competition should have!" Ning Tian said with a smile.

The inner court disciples, on the other hand, looked calm. They were already used to big scenes, and this small scene was nothing to them.

They had already experienced this five years ago.

"Yuzhen, are you nervous?" Lin Yuan asked softly.

"I'm not nervous." Huo Yuzhan shook his head. "With you here, I'm not afraid."

Lin You smiled and said nothing more.

He knew that Huo Yuzhan's trust in him was unconditional.

"Okay, everyone follow me." Wang Yan led everyone to the exclusive area of ​​Shrek Academy.

Teams from other colleges also arrived one after another. For a moment, the entire square was filled with elites and masters.

At noon, the sun shines on Xingluo Square, painting everything with a golden glow.

"The Emperor has arrived——"

A sharp voice pierced the sky, and the originally noisy square suddenly became quiet.

The sounds of people kneeling and bowing rang out, and the common people knelt on the ground one after another, shouting "Long live the emperor!" The contestants from the various soul master academies only needed to bow to show their respect.

Emperor Xu Jiawei of Xingluo, dressed in a bright yellow dragon robe and a golden crown, slowly walked onto the platform surrounded by a group of guards and officials.

His face was dignified and his eyes were as sharp as torches. He glanced at the crowd below, and an aura of majesty without anger emerged spontaneously.

However, when his eyes fell on the Shrek Academy team, he paused slightly.

His gaze was firmly fixed on Lin You and Huo Yuzhen.

The corner of Xu Jiawei's mouth twitched unconsciously.

He still remembers the earth-shaking battle a month ago.

At that time, he was handling government affairs in the Xingluo Palace. Suddenly, the chief priest came hurriedly to protect him, looking panicked, as if facing a great enemy.

Xu Jiawei looked confused and had no idea what was going on.

Immediately afterwards, a terrifying aura rose into the sky, shaking the entire Xingluo City.

Afterwards, news came that the six Titled Douluo of Xingluo City were no match for the Soul Beast Overlord Snow Empress, who had already fled.

Xu Jiawei was furious on the spot!
He is the emperor of the Xingluo Empire and the ruler of this land!

But the Soul Beast Overlord actually ran to his hometown and ran wild without his knowledge, and he couldn't even beat him. This was simply a great shame!
And now, seeing Lin You, Xu Jiawei immediately thought of that terrible woman - Xue Di.

Lin You is Xue Di’s “accomplice”!
"This kid... is so young..."

Xu Jiawei was secretly shocked. "At such a young age, he already has such strength, and with the support of the Snow Empress behind him... His future is limitless!"

He looked at Lin You deeply and memorized the appearance of this young man firmly in his mind.

"Your Majesty, do you need to pay special attention to Shrek Academy?"

The Prime Minister on the side observed Xu Jiawei's expression, moved closer to him and asked in a low voice.

"No need."

Xu Jiawei shook his head and said calmly, "Everything should be done according to the rules."

Although he was afraid of the Snow Empress, he was not so afraid that he lost his composure.

What's more, he believed that Shrek Academy was strong enough to handle any challenge.

"Yes." The Prime Minister bowed and withdrew.

Xu Jiawei took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said loudly, "Everyone, welcome to Xingluo City! I'm very happy to see you here!"

His voice was loud and powerful, and with the help of the amplifying soul guide, it spread throughout the square.

"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, held every five years, is a grand event in the soul master world. It is also a stage for the younger generation of soul masters to showcase themselves and bring glory to the academy."

"I hope you can fully demonstrate your strength and level here, and bring us wonderful games!"

"I hereby declare that the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition begins now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the whole audience burst into thunderous applause and cheers.

The Prime Minister stepped forward and announced loudly: "The competition has begun. Please welcome the contestants from Shrek Academy!"
