Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

After settling in, the Spirit Hall, the organizer of the Soul Master Competition finals, sent a message that the finals would officially begin in three days. The journey was tiring, and these three days of rest would be enough for the teams from each academy to adjust.

As for the participating academy teams from the Star Luo Empire, they were arranged to rest on the other side of Wuhun City. In effect, the Wuhun Hall divided the participating teams from the two empires into two camps.

Inside the suite where the Shrek Academy team is staying.

Having arrived in Wuhun City ahead of time to catch up with her old flame, Yu Xiaogang had just found the main group when she realized her disciple Tang San and Xiao Wu were missing. She hurriedly asked, "Erlong, Flander, where are Xiao San and Xiao Wu?"

Upon hearing this, Flander remained silent for a moment before recounting what had happened on his way to Wuhun City.

After learning what had happened, Yu Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief; at least things hadn't gone as badly as they hoped.

As for not being able to participate in the final competition, although it is a pity, at least Tang San's life was saved, so it's not too regrettable.

Even if Tang San and Xiao Wu were there, the Shrek Academy team wouldn't be able to achieve outstanding results in the finals.

Leaving aside the Spirit Hall team and the Star Luo Royal Academy team, Shrek Academy is no match for the Blazing Fire, Heavenly Water, and Divine Wind teams, which are all from the Heaven Dou region.

It can be said that after losing Tang San and Xiao Wu, two key members of the team, Shrek Academy showed signs of giving up, whether it was team leader Yu Xiaogang, Dean Flander, or Ning Rongrong, Ma Hongjun and others.

Of course, if we were to say who among the Shrek Seven Devils had the most complicated feelings, it would undoubtedly be Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing.

There was no other reason, but this final was of great significance to Dai Mubai and his companion, as it was the last battle to determine the succession of the throne among the princes of the Star Luo royal family.

Shrek Academy's strength on paper wasn't particularly high to begin with, and based on previous years' performance, their chances of defeating the Star Luo Royal Academy team were slim.

With Tang San and Xiao Wu gone, only Dai Mubai in the entire team is a four-ring Soul Master, while the rest are all three-ring Soul Venerables.

Judging solely by their soul power level, they are arguably the weakest of the thirty-three teams participating in the finals. How can they possibly compete? They simply can't win!

"How about we submit to the Spirit Hall?"

Dai Mubai couldn't help but think to himself.

Undoubtedly, the White Tiger Martial Soul is one of the top-tier beast Martial Souls in the continent's Soul Master world, and the Spirit Hall may very well be eyeing the inheritance of the White Tiger Martial Soul.

Moreover, the Spirit Hall's spirit masters are far stronger than those of the Star Luo Empire. If the Spirit Hall were willing to protect him, he might have a chance to survive.

No, how can this be called merely surviving?

If you can't beat them, join them. There's nothing shameful about it!

Moreover, if he submits to the Spirit Hall, and if the Spirit Hall truly realizes its ambitions in the future, leading to the destruction of the Star Luo Empire and the extinction of the Dai family bloodline, he, Dai Mubai, might be the last guarantee for the continuation of the White Tiger bloodline.

In the world of Soul Masters on the mainland, every Soul Master from a family with a glorious history harbors a deep-seated obsession.

This obsession is not about what achievements one should make in the future, but about ensuring that the family's martial spirit will not be lost.

This is similar to Qian Renxue, the angel goddess who once stood atop the clouds in the original work. Even though she was unwilling to accept her fate after her divine position was shattered, she did not end her own life.

It wasn't that Qian Renxue lacked the courage to commit suicide, but rather that as the only surviving member of the Angel Family, she absolutely could not allow the lineage of the Angel bloodline to be broken.

This can be seen from the fact that there are still angel-type martial soul masters in the soul master world of later generations.

Thinking this way, Dai Mubai felt that this might be a way out.

Anyway, it's still better than being captured by my older brother Davis and taken back to Xingluo, having my soul power destroyed, being imprisoned for life, or even being directly eliminated.

"Hmm, let's see. We can't give up until the very last step; maybe a miracle will happen!"

Dai Mubai secretly dreamed.

For the finals of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, the Spirit Hall specially opened up a competition venue in the center of the city and built a giant arena with a diameter of 100 meters.

This enormous arena was reinforced with a considerable number of soul tools, making it strong enough to withstand any attack from a soul master below the Soul Emperor level without breaking.

The magnificent Papal Palace stands directly in front of this arena, less than a kilometer from the hill where the palace is located.

The notice posted by the Spirit Hall has announced that the final three finalists will compete in the square in front of the Pope's Palace.

Early in the morning, all the participating academy teams arrived at the competition venue under the guidance of the Spirit Hall's personnel.

Each college has its own dedicated rest area, which is built around the competition venue.

On the opposite side of the Papal Palace was the VIP judging panel, where dignitaries representing the two great empires and bishops of various ranks from the Spirit Hall watched the battle.

As soon as she arrived, before she could even sit down properly, Mu Xiyue, the team leader, was called to draw lots.

In the first round of the finals, the three teams that were guaranteed a spot in the finals—the Spirit Hall team, the Star Luo Royal Academy team, and the Royal Fighting team—received a bye, while the remaining thirty teams drew lots to determine the two sides for their matches.

Not long after, Mu Xiyue returned from drawing lots.

Although she didn't speak, everyone in the Blazing Fire team noticed the strange expression on Mu Xiyue's face.

"Which opponent? Kamikaze or Raiden?"

At this moment, Huo Lie couldn't help but ask curiously.

The opponent in the first round cannot be the Tianshui team. According to the rules of previous competitions, the first and second place teams in the qualifying rounds of the same region will not meet in the first three rounds.

Of course, saying that they won't meet in the first three rounds only means they won't face each other in the first round.

After all, the team that finishes first in the qualifying round will have a bye in the second round, while the team that finishes second in the qualifying round will have a bye in the third round.

As long as they don't meet in the first round, the top two teams in the qualifying rounds of the same region will not meet in the first three rounds.

Aside from the Tianshui team, the only reason Mu Xiyue would show such a strange expression is the Blazing Fire team's first-round opponent, who is an internal battle within the same region and is a strong team that can go far in the finals.

"Good news, it wasn't Shenfeng, and he didn't betray Feng Zhen. Bad news, the former big brother of Elemental Academy, Thunder Academy, is going to be eliminated in the finals in one day."

Mu Xiyue said with a smile.

"Tsk~, their opponent is Thunder Academy, huh? Lei Batian's just unlucky!"

He smacked his lips, a look of schadenfreude on his face.

In the past, among the five elemental academies, Blazing Fire Academy was not at the bottom, but it was basically in the middle. It was better than Elephant Armor Academy, almost the same as Skywater Academy, a step behind Divine Wind Academy, and much worse than Thunder Academy.

Before the academies were officially merged and reorganized, Blazing Academy defeated Thunder Academy with absolute strength, causing Thunder Team to be eliminated in the finals in one day. This feeling was simply too good!

Huo Lie has always enjoyed this kind of healthy competition that tests the strength of academies. (End of Chapter)
