Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 219 New Competition System
It wasn't that he was making baseless accusations; Tie Li had genuinely held back.

But in this process, Tie Li used a little trick.

On the arena, without Davis and Zhu Zhuyun, the Star Luo Royal Team was even more vulnerable.

Tie Li deactivated his fifth soul skill, as the extreme attribute consumed far too much soul power.

After several rounds, the Star Luo Royal Team's formation was broken, and they won the match with absolute dominance.

In the afternoon's Shrek team vs. Thunder team match, Tang San once again demonstrated his formidable strength, almost single-handedly turning the tide of the entire battle.

He even broke through the fusion technique used by Arno and Fengyu.

Shrek's consecutive victories over two strong teams have made them the talk of the town.

As for the second match in the afternoon, the Spirit Hall team won the game with an absolute advantage. They had three Soul Kings and four Soul Masters, and the four Soul Masters all had a Soul Power level of over 45. On the surface, their strength was the strongest among the top eight teams.

After the four teams were determined, the next step was the draw ceremony, which attracted a lot of attention.

Pope Bibidon appeared on the platform, her incomparably noble figure standing before everyone's eyes. She was in charge of the lottery ceremony.

Inside the four small metal spheres were slips of paper containing the names of four teams. Bibi Dong's soul power enveloped the metal spheres, dividing them into pairs.

Next, a platinum bishop will announce the contents.

"The first match is between the Spirit Hall team and the vice-captain of the Heaven Dou Royal team!"

"The second match is between Shrek Team and the main team of Heaven Dou Royal Team!"

This time, their luck seems to be not very good, as they immediately faced the strongest Spirit Hall team.

The semi-finals will begin in three days, and the venue will be in front of the Papal Palace.

After the lottery ceremony, everyone left.

Back in the team's meeting room, the atmosphere was a bit off, but it wasn't because of the pressure from the Spirit Hall team.

The fact that they reached the semi-finals was in line with most of the team members' expectations, and even exceeded their ideal results.

Their attitude towards the Spirit Hall team was that they would win if they could, and it wouldn't matter if they lost.

They're already a top four team, and they're facing the Spirit Hall team with three Soul Kings. Even if they lose, it's not shameful.

The rules for the semi-finals have been finalized; they will be a 2-2-3 format that relies more on the overall strength of the teams.

The rules are extremely disadvantageous to the vice-captain of the Heavenly Dou Royal Team. In this team, there is only one top-tier combatant, and the four main members are still Soul Masters. The two-two-three battle rule will amplify their team's weaknesses.

Given the team's current mindset, winning will undoubtedly be even more difficult.

Tie Li glanced at everyone in the conference room before getting up and leaving.

When Zhao Tianhe arrived at the conference room, his expression was both heavy and somewhat relieved. His opponent in the semifinals was the Spirit Hall team, and with the new rules, it would be almost impossible for them to win.

Inside the meeting room, Tie Li was nowhere to be seen. After glancing at the expressions on the faces of the other team members, he immediately understood.

Zhao Tianhe shook his head with a wry smile. The top four might be the end for him.
Compared to the Heavenly Dou Royal Team, the Shrek Team's meeting room undoubtedly had the best atmosphere.

They have an over 80% chance of winning against the Heavenly Dou Royal Team.

"We have a high chance of winning this time, but we shouldn't be careless. They still have the strength," Yu Xiaogang reminded him.

Due to the change in the competition format, the 2-2-3 Soul Battle rule is more flexible, making the overall strength of the team the most fundamental factor. In this respect, the vice-captain of the Heavenly Dou Royal Team has a fatal weakness.

As the team leader, Tie Li has the highest soul power level and a top-tier martial soul, but the team members are too weak, especially the four main members who are only Soul Master level.

"The vice-captain of the Heaven Dou Royal Team may be eliminated by the Spirit Hall," Flander said.

"It's basically a foregone conclusion that they will lose. Apart from the vice-captain, who has a soul power level of 57, making him arguably the strongest individual in the entire Soul Master Competition, his teammates are too weak. The 2-2-3 format is completely designed to target them." Yu Xiaogang shook his head, showing great pessimism about the vice-captain of the Heaven Dou Royal Team.

But this can't be blamed on the Spirit Hall. If the team's overall strength is strong enough, they will be fully confident no matter what kind of competition format they face.

"Everyone, pay attention. I'm going to explain the rules and the group assignments."

……

Three days passed quickly.

The four qualifying teams, led by their designated personnel, entered the competition venue, which was located in the square in front of the Papal Palace.

The first match was between the Spirit Hall team and the vice-captain of the Heaven Dou Royal team.

Most people are more optimistic about the Spirit Hall team. If it were a team competition, the Heaven Dou Royal team might have a chance to win, but this time it is a 2-2-3 format, and the Heaven Dou Royal team basically has no chance of winning.

"Dali, you go on stage with Zhang Xiaohe. I'll put Gu Qi and Ning Ning in the second position. Maybe we'll have a chance to win," Zhao Tianhe said.

This is their only chance of winning. Tie Li led Zhang Xiaohe to victory in the first match, while Gu Qi and Ning Ning are a four-ring Soul Master duo. They might have a chance to win against the Spirit Hall team.

Tie Li didn't reply, his gaze falling on the Spirit Hall team opposite him, where Yan was making a mocking gesture.

But his response was Tieli's indifference.

"hateful!"

"Don't worry, Nana and I will teach him a lesson he'll never forget later," Xie Yue said from the side.

They already knew from within that Tieli would be the first player to enter the game.

What they didn't expect was that their partner, Tie Li, was actually a Soul Master.

They all thought it would be that support Soul Master. In their eyes, the only decent vice-captain of the Heaven Dou Royal Team, besides Tie Li, was Ning Ning, who possessed the Ruyi Tower Martial Soul.

Tie Li's previous display of individual strength forced the Spirit Hall team to take him seriously, so this time they sent Xie Yue and Hu Liena to face Tie Li.

The two possess a powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skill and once defeated an elder with the cultivation of a seven-ring Soul Master.

This is their confidence; with their Martial Soul Fusion Technique, they are certain they can defeat Tie Li.

"This is a 2-2-3 format. Both sides have confirmed their players. Please come to the field."

Whether it was intentional on the part of the Spirit Hall or not, the referee this time was only a six-ring Soul Emperor with weak soul power fluctuations. Tie Li even doubted whether this Soul Emperor had a ten-thousand-year soul ring.

Tie Li and Zhang Xiaohe stepped onto the stage, where Hu Liena and Xie Yue were walking towards them.

Zhang Xiaohe appeared very nervous. Of the four people on the stage, three were Soul Kings, and he was the only one who was a Three-Ring Soul Venerable.

"Boss, what can I do to help you?" Zhang Xiaohe asked nervously.

Tie Li had already guessed the opponent's next move, and for a moment, he really didn't know Zhang Xiaohe's role in this battle of spirits.
