Douluo: This soul master has a little bit of luck

Chapter 198: The Preliminary Rounds and Qualifying Tournament Concluded

After Xue Ling's martial soul awakened for the second time, Qi Lin had Gu Yuena take her to the far north to obtain a soul ring.

As Qi Lin had predicted, after Xue Ling obtained the soul ring, her soul power directly broke through to level twenty-seven.

Moreover, because she had taken the Creation-Mending Pill, and Qi Lin had also used whale glue and other medicinal herbs to refine a Body-Strengthening Pill for her, Xue Ling's physical strength was extremely high even though she had not yet obtained a Soul Ring.

The first spirit ring absorbed nearly three thousand years of spirit energy, while the second spirit ring reached six thousand years.

When she returned, everyone in the Tiandou and Tianshui teams was envious of her.

However, Qi Lin didn't care about such comparisons, and Xiao Wu and the others each ate several.

Possessing the power of the Six Ding Creation, Qi Lin would simply refine the Strengthening Pills and give them to the others to eat like candy, as long as there were medicinal herbs available.

Even the brothers Graphite and Stone Mill, as well as Wind-Riding Oslo, all had their families pay to buy one from Qi Lin.

The ingredients for the Strengthening Pill are all common medicinal herbs, except for the whale glue, which is of higher value because the whale glue Qi Lin used was a piece of 90,000-year-old whale glue.

Of course, the aphrodisiac effect of the 90,000-year-old whale jelly was too great, so Qi Lin only took a small amount to refine a body-strengthening pill.

In addition, as time goes by, the preliminary rounds of the Soul Master Tournament are also coming to an end.

When Tiandou Academy and Chihuo Academy clashed, Xiao Wu personally took to the field.

Although they knew they were no match, Blazing Fire Academy still refused to admit defeat.

After all, there has never been a precedent of the Five Elements Academy admitting defeat without even fighting.

As a result, they naturally lost.

However, considering that Huo Wu was her best friend, Xiao Wu still showed mercy and did not seriously injure them.

Finally, there is the Divine Wind Academy, which can be said to be the strongest academy among the five elemental academies besides the Heavenly Water Academy, with four members of the Soul Sect alone.

Unfortunately, this level of strength was still insufficient when facing the Heaven Dou Academy.

The one sent by Tiandou Academy was Dugu Yan. As soon as she appeared, she used only one soul skill to wipe out all seven members of Shenfeng Academy.

Once the qualifiers concluded, the top five teams that would advance to the knockout stage were determined.

They are Tiandou Academy, Tianshui Academy, Shenfeng Academy, Leiting Academy, and Chihuo Academy.

As for Elephant Armor Academy and Shrek Academy, they were both eliminated and became mere runners-up.

Following the qualifiers, the qualifying rounds will begin.

Unlike the qualifiers, the qualifying rounds will no longer eliminate teams. In addition to the five teams from the Tiandou City division, there will be a total of ten teams participating in the qualifying rounds.

These ten teams come from four kingdoms and one duchy affiliated with Tiandou City.

Of course, these ten teams are relatively weak, even weaker than the Five Elements Academy.

The reason they were able to stand out from their respective regions was entirely because there were no strong teams in other regions.

Even Shrek Academy and Elephant Armor Academy, which have already been eliminated, could very well stand out like these ten teams in the other five regions.

In addition, the format of the qualifying rounds is different from that of the preliminary rounds.

The preliminary rounds are team competitions, while the qualifying rounds are one-on-one duels.

Each team sends out its members, who then face off one by one.

This situation resulted in the Tiandou Academy team being completely without any challengers.

They couldn't even beat one team against another before, and now they're going to have a one-on-one fight?
Who would fight them now?

They're here to compete, not to be humiliated.

Ultimately, most of the teams that the Tiandou Academy team faced chose to forfeit.

The competition between Tianshui Academy and Chihuo Academy was merely symbolic. Shui Bing'er, relying on her individual strength, defeated the Shi Mo and Shi Mo brothers, as well as Ye Lingling and her two companions, before finally being defeated by Ning Rongrong. The other members of Tianshui Academy chose to surrender.

Meanwhile, the Blazing Fire Academy sent out their captains, Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu, to fight one after the other. In the first battle, Huo Wushuang was defeated by Shi Mo.

He launched a powerful attack on the Soul Master, but couldn't break through the defenses on the stone at all.

Even Huo Wu, in a head-on confrontation, was no match for Shi Mo. Fortunately, she had a high battle IQ and used various means to force him to the edge of the arena before using her third soul skill, the Fire Resistance Ring, to push him out of the arena.

Graphite's younger brother, Stone Mill, was also defeated using the same method.

Huo Wu was defeated by Ye Lingling because she used her soul skills repeatedly and her soul power was exhausted.

After fourteen qualifying matches, Tiandou Academy secured a comfortable fourteen-game winning streak.

During the qualifying rounds, Qi Lin would occasionally travel between the Doupo World and the Douluo World.

However, because the Heaven Dou Academy had a lot of events during the Soul Master Competition, he didn't leave. He only went to the Battle Through the Heavens world at night to chat with Xiao Xun'er.

However, his relationship with Xiao Xun'er continued to heat up rapidly during this period.

……

Meanwhile, Tang Yuehua dispatched numerous people to search for Tang San and Tang Hao throughout the continent, and also left behind unique secret codes of the Clear Sky Sect in many places.

It wasn't until the qualifying rounds ended that they finally found Tang Hao and his son in front of a waterfall in Sunset Forest, a testament to their perseverance.

In the original story, he was training with Tang San at the waterfall where Ah Yin was planted, but after learning that the location of the waterfall had been exposed and even the 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone had been stolen, he decisively abandoned that place.

Tang Hao narrowed his eyes as he looked at the two men kneeling on one knee with their hands clasped in front of him, and said calmly, "Speak, who sent you to find me?"

One of them bowed his head respectfully and said, "Your Majesty Haotian, we are here on the orders of Lady Yue to find your whereabouts."

Upon hearing this, Tang Hao raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Little sister?"

As he spoke, he continued, "What does Third Sister want with you?"

The man continued, "I don't know, but Lady Yue only instructed that if His Majesty Haotian is found, you must bring Tang San back to Yuexuan, as this matter concerns Tang San's life and safety."

Upon hearing this, Tang San, who was standing next to Tang Hao, was slightly taken aback.

How did this get involved, and even affect my life and safety?

Upon hearing this, Tang Hao's brows furrowed even more deeply.

Is it related to the safety of the mistress?

What happened in the end?

Tang Hao was puzzled, but he knew that his younger sister was not one to speak without reason, so he said to the two of them, "I understand. You two go back and report. I will return to Yuexuan with Xiao San in a few days."

"Then I shall take my leave!"

After saying this, the two stood up, bowed, and turned to leave.

After the two left, only Tang Hao and his son remained.

Tang San asked doubtfully, "Dad, what does this message from Aunt mean? With you by my side, what danger could I possibly be in?"

Tang Hao shook his head and said, "Dad doesn't know what happened either, but since your aunt is taking it so seriously, she must know some important information that we don't."

"Alright, pack up, we'll head back to Heaven Dou City tomorrow!"

Tang San nodded upon hearing this; he wouldn't risk his life.
