Douluo: Blue Lightning Dominates the World, Fist Douluo

Chapter 123 Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition
Time flies, and the week-long vacation is almost over. Tomorrow morning, they will all head to Tiandou City to attend the opening ceremony of the Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.

It's worth mentioning that with Yu Luomian, a titled Douluo, leading the way, the speed of hunting soul beasts was indeed fast.

In just half a month, Ye Lingling had already obtained her fifth soul ring and her soul power had broken through to level 51.

At this point, all members of Team Thunder have reached their current level.

Yu Tianlin, level 59, with one yellow, one purple, and three black soul rings.

Yu Tianheng, level 58, has two yellow, two purple and one black soul rings.

Yu Tianxin, level 56, with two yellow, two purple, and one black soul rings.

Dugu Yan, level 55, with two yellow, two purple, and one black soul rings.

Ye Lingling, level 51, with two yellow, two purple, and one black soul rings.

Lei Dong, level 47, with two yellow and two purple soul rings.

Lei Tian, ​​level 45, with two yellow and two purple soul rings.

Lan Yueran, level 45, with two yellow and two purple soul rings.

Ning Rongrong, level 42, with two yellow and two purple soul rings.

With all members at least four-ring Soul Masters and five five-ring Soul Kings, their strength is such that they could easily sweep through the Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies.

In fact, everyone on the Thunder team thought the same way.

However, to prevent them from being taken advantage of for not understanding the rules and thus suffering a mishap, Yu Lingyun gathered them together early this morning.

After a day of intensive explanation, they finally understood how the competition format worked.

In summary, there are three points.

I. The Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academy is divided into preliminary rounds, ranking rounds, and the finals.

The preliminary rounds were held in separate regions. In addition to the two major regions, the Heavenly Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, each of their ten kingdoms and duchies was also a smaller region.

There are five qualifying spots in the main competition area and two qualifying spots in the sub-competition area.

The preliminary rounds are ranked by points, with winners receiving one point and losers receiving no points. The team with the highest final score advances.

The ranking matches are also held in separate regions, but there are only two regions: Tiandou and Xingluo.

The two empires ranked themselves internally, and then fought one-on-one in the finals according to their respective rankings, with the winner advancing and the loser retreating.

This is truly brutal. Each student only has one chance. Everyone is fighting their way here, shining brightly and unleashing all sorts of secret techniques that are rarely seen in ordinary times.

Second, killing is strictly prohibited on the stage. Whether intentional or unintentional, anyone who causes death will be held accountable by the competition organizing committee.

Of course, with Ye Lingling around, even if someone wanted to die, it wouldn't be that easy.

III. There are a total of 28 participating teams in the Tiandou Division Preliminary Round.

Apart from the opening ceremony on the first day, they will play a match every day for the next 28 days until they have played against all 28 colleges.

The entire qualifying round will last for 29 days.

Such intense competition is a great test for all the teams from the participating academies.

Of course, this is not the case for Thunder Academy.

Given their strength, this Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament is purely a show of force.

The team of five Soul Kings and four Soul Masters signifies that the Blue Point Tyrant Dragon Clan has truly risen to the occasion.

Of course, in order to avoid scaring other participating teams and to make a stunning debut at the last moment, the Thunder team still needs to hide their strength to some extent.

Moreover, they recently received inside information that the finals of the Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament would be held in Wuhun City. The Wuhun Hall was offering an extremely high reward for this: three ten-thousand-year soul bones.

Even for these three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones, they had to keep a low profile in the early stages.

If we start with a bombshell, sending out all five Soul Kings and four Soul Sects, and if that scares the Spirit Hall, wouldn't it be a pain if those three Soul Bones were exported and then re-imported?

To this end, Yu Lingyun specially found two more level 30+ Soul Masters within the rules, which brought the Thunder Team to a full 11 members.

As for where this inside information came from, hehehe, after more than a year of no contact, a certain little kitten couldn't hold back any longer and has now learned to assign tasks to herself.

That's right, this inside information that Yu Tianlin already knew was passed back by Zhu Zhuqing through the Seven Treasures Merchant Guild in Wuhun City.

Something unexpected yet reasonable.

In fact, even Yu Tianlin overlooked this point: the Seven Treasures Merchant Guild, which spans the entire Douluo Continent, can be transformed into a continent-wide intelligence organization whenever needed.

For this reason alone, Yu Tianlin couldn't help but sigh that Ning Fengzhi was indeed a cunning and shrewd old fox.

In the original story, he did lose his mind when he was ambushed by the Spirit Hall. Logically speaking, with such a large-scale mobilization of personnel by the Spirit Hall, how could his Seven Treasures Merchant Guild, which is spread all over the continent, not detect a single thing?

To be honest, some of it was a joke.

Yu Tianlin could only sigh inwardly, knowing that they had powerful connections who could provide assistance.

Fortunately, the Douluo Continent of today is not a world full of cheat codes, and everyone's development process follows this most basic logic.

For example, Lei Dong, Lei Tian, ​​and Lan Yueran, as top students of Thunder Academy, are fully capable of reaching the advanced Soul Master level before the age of 25.

For example, among the current Shrek Seven Devils, apart from Dai Mubai who has broken through to the fourth-ring Soul Master, the others are still stuck at the third-ring Soul Venerable level.

Otherwise, even if Yu Tianlin were a transmigrator familiar with the plot, he would probably have to surrender with his hands raised.

What's the point of playing? The other side never even turned it off...

Early the next morning, in the imperial city of the Heavenly Dou Empire, Heavenly Dou City.

The grand opening ceremony of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, Tian Dou Division, was held in Tian Dou City.

As the grandest Soul Master Tournament in the Soul Master world, and a grand event held every five years across the entire continent, it naturally attracts the attention of more than just Soul Masters.

From royalty and nobility to ordinary citizens, every resident of Tiandou City regarded this competition as the grandest festival.

The opening ceremony was held in the Heavenly Battle Arena in Heavenly Dou City.

As the main arena for the Tiandou division, the Tiandou Grand Soul Arena suspended all Soul Battles a month ago for internal renovations.

All the internal arenas and compartments were connected and integrated into a huge competition venue.

Aside from retaining the VIP area and a few private boxes for big spenders, the renovated Grand Arena can accommodate at least 80,000 spectators at the same time.

Although the renovation cost was considerable, the opening ceremony tickets had already sold out a month in advance.

You should know that during the grand event, the ticket price skyrocketed, and now it has reached an extremely astonishing level.

Even though the worst seats cost ten gold soul coins per vote, it still couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of the boisterous crowd.

Just from selling tickets, the Heavenly Battle Arena earned no less than a million gold soul coins from this competition.

Even after deducting the renovation costs and the share given to the various nobles, they would still make a fortune.

As the saying goes, the nobles' money was returned to its original source, while the commoners' money was split 50/50.

No matter what world it is, as long as there are people, it is essentially still a world where people eat people.

After all, the principle of "like cures like" applies; you get what you eat...
