Douluo Continent: The World Shines with Stars

Chapter 15 Facing the Othello Academy

The Soul Master Competition, officially known as the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, is the largest and most watched major event on the Douluo Continent.

During the competition, Tiandou City was filled with participants and spectators from all directions.

The various noble families of the Heavenly Dou Empire also wanted to see if they could recruit a talent here.

The same idea was shared by Xue Xin, the current emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, who attended the event in full regalia with his son, Crown Prince Xue Ye.

The local residents of Tiandou City were not stingy with the ticket price. They naturally wanted to participate in this once-every-five-years event, and the venue was filled with excited people.

The host, Weiwei, held a microphone in her hand, spread her pure white wings behind her, and flew into the sky.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Continental Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies is now beginning."

This is the Tiandou City division venue. There are 27 teams participating in this qualifier. Let's welcome them in.

The Canghui Academy students were in the middle, dressed in moon-white academy robes decorated with silver thread, with the words "Canghui" embroidered on their chests.

Led by Luo Yun, the group of nine people walked into the venue with their heads held high and chests out.

As a veteran team, Canghui Academy also has its fans.

This year in particular, the robust and heroic Luo Yun and the graceful Wen Tingyu walked at the front, attracting a lot of attention.

Taking advantage of his height, Xu Mingxi hid in the middle of the group, secretly observing the opponents from Othello Academy.

The first one is Gu Ling, the captain of Othello Academy. Although he is a boy, he has long hair and a very gloomy expression.

Seemingly noticing the gaze, Gu Ling turned her head and looked at Xu Mingxi with a smile of interest.

A little embarrassed after being caught peeping, Xu Mingxi immediately turned her head away and stared at Luo Yun's shoulder in front of her, no longer daring to glance around.

"Pfft, Mingxi, what's up? How about we go check out Othello Academy?"

Zhou Lingling, who was standing next to Xu Mingxi, saw all of Xu Mingxi's embarrassing moments.

She had long felt that her younger brother seemed a bit too mature, and now that she finally had the chance, she was going to tease him a bit.

"Zhou Lingling, don't make noise in the team. Let's talk about it in the rest area."

……

Captain, what are you doing here? Can't you see I'm talking to Mingxi?

"Yes, Captain."

Xu Mingxi, relying on his nephew's influence, rolled his eyes at Zhou Lingling.

Zhou Lingling's eyes were full of mockery, if this weren't at the Soul Master Competition venue.

With so many viewers watching and the captain in charge, she was determined to let Xu Mingxi know that even the support role wasn't to be trifled with.

Emperor Xuexin looked at the young soul masters below with a smile. These were the future of the Heaven Dou Empire.

"Sect Leader Yu, Sect Leader Ning, it is truly an honor for me to have you two here."

Sitting to the left of Emperor Xuexin were Ning Tiansheng, the current sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and Feng Xing, the only titled Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Sitting on the right is Yu Yuanzhen, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and there is another person to his left.

The man in the bright red priest's robe was none other than Redding, the Platinum Bishop of the Spirit Hall stationed in Heaven Dou City.

"The two sect leaders have condescended to come and watch the match, it must be for the sake of the Heavenly Battle Team."

White Feathered Eagle, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex—what a great team!

Reading's words were loaded with meaning, immediately drawing the attention of all three.

"Reading, it's none of your business how we act."

Ning Tiansheng watched as the hot-tempered Yu Yuanzhen took the lead, calmly sipping his tea. At this point, there was no need for him to speak again.

Emperor Xue Xin watched with a smile as Yu Yuanzhen and Lei Ding started arguing. Lei Ding was an 86th-level Soul Douluo with the Martial Soul Lightning Dragon, and he was an old nemesis of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

It was almost inevitable that the two of them would argue when they met, which suited Xue Xin's wishes perfectly.

The Spirit Hall is powerful, and the Star Luo Empire is eyeing the Heaven Dou Empire covetously. However, the Heaven Dou royal family only has one elderly Title Douluo.

Xue Xin must bring the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan onto his side. As for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, Ning Tiansheng is not so easily fooled.

"Alright, alright, you two, let's not ruin the harmony."

Everyone's here to watch the game, so let's see what these young people are like!"

Xue Xin gently persuaded the two who were arguing. This was the Heavenly Dou Empire, and he, the old emperor, still had some face.

Ning Fengzhi, sitting behind Ning Tiansheng, glanced at the four of them, seemingly lost in thought.

As intelligent as he was, he naturally knew the current situation on the mainland, but as a Soul Saint, he was bound to be stuck there and had no way to change it.

All I can do is try my best to help my father protect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School during this crisis.

If the four major factions were engaged in a fierce power struggle in the VIP seats, the battle below was a visible spectacle.

The preliminary rounds of the Soul Master Competition were held on five arenas, with each academy facing off against another in a head-to-head battle.

The five teams with the most wins will represent the Heavenly Dou Empire in the next round of the qualifying tournament.

The Canghui Academy's competition was scheduled for the second match, and the nine of them sat in the rest area watching the crowd on the arena.

The various martial spirits, the dazzling array of soul skills, and the unique combat techniques all broadened Xu Mingxi's horizons.

"Brother Yun, this year's competition is really strong. I saw in the information provided by the academy about the previous Soul Master Competitions that there weren't this many Soul Masters."

"Yes, Thunder Academy and Blazing Fire Academy each have three Soul Masters, Heavenly Water Academy has two, and even the Heavenly Fighting Second Team has one Soul Master."

Luo Yun's expression also became more serious. He originally thought that with his own efforts, Wen Tingyu's help, and Xu Mingxi's assistance, they could at least qualify.

The five major academies are now an insurmountable obstacle in their path. Not to mention Luo Yun, Wen Tingyu is practically the weakest among the Soul Sect members.

The Five Elements Academy has always worked together and their strengths are roughly equal.

Luo Yun didn't believe that the other two academies didn't have at least two Soul Masters.

"Students, don't put so much pressure on yourselves. Whether you make it to the next round or not, Canghui Academy will always be proud of you."

Seeing that everyone was a little down, Dean Wen stood up and offered words of comfort.

His only concern was his students; everything else was unimportant.

Moreover, Cang Hui has never defeated the Five Elements Academy in previous years, so what if he loses again this year?

That being said, Dean Wen may accept it, but these hot-blooded young men and women may not.

We've trained for so long and worked so hard, not to lose.

At this moment, Luo Yun, who had been watching the arena intently, spoke up.

"They're done, it's almost our turn, is everyone ready?"

Everyone nodded in agreement. In this battle against Othello Academy, which had a Soul Master, Canghui Academy would naturally have to field its strongest lineup to avoid an upset.

Meanwhile, the seven students from the Othello Academy on the opposite side also stepped onto the arena with great momentum.

Othello Academy is a formidable enemy to Canghui Academy, but Othello Academy is equally wary of Canghui.

As the captain of Othello Academy, Gu Ling led her team slowly onto the stage, her eyes sweeping over the members of Canghui Academy, and she licked her lips.

Canghui Academy, I hope you can let me have some fun.
