Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable
Chapter 211 Tactical Forfeiture
After everyone who had knelt down stood up, a smile appeared on Bibi Dong's face. Her gaze swept over all twenty-one young soul masters who participated in the final three-way competition, from left to right.
Especially when she looked at Hu Liena, Bibi Dong's eyes were filled with satisfaction.
This precious disciple of mine not only has great talent for cultivation and works very hard, but he also has exceptional luck. It is foreseeable that his future will be bright.
"I see hope in you all, but before the Papal Palace, I hope to see your full potential and strength. And the ultimate victor will receive the Spirit Hall's greatest reward."
As she spoke, Bibi Dong lightly waved her jeweled scepter, and three points of light instantly magnified in front of her, floating in mid-air.
These three points of light were none other than three soul bones: a head soul bone, a right arm soul bone, and a left leg soul bone, each shimmering with a pale blue, fiery red, and dark green halo, respectively.
The moment the three soul bones appeared, they attracted countless greedy eyes, especially the head soul bone in the middle that shimmered with a pale blue halo, which was the most tempting.
If this weren't in front of the Pope's Palace, and if there weren't several Title Douluos here as a deterrent, people would probably have already been unable to suppress their greed and rushed up to snatch it.
"That rich dog is indeed generous!"
His gaze automatically swept past the two right arm and left leg soul bones, and as he looked at the head soul bone of extremely high quality, Mu Yang couldn't help but sigh to himself.
If nothing unexpected happens, this light blue head bone should be the same intelligent skull from the original story that is 60,000 years old and formed from the condensation of spiritual energy.
Moreover, due to the rarity of the head soul bone, in terms of value alone, this soul bone is second only to the soul bones of the limbs from the 100,000-year-old body, and even surpasses the inherited soul bones that are treasured by various forces on the continent.
Knowing that the other academy teams were quite strong and that the Spirit Hall team might not necessarily win the championship, the Spirit Hall still offered the Spirit Condensation Wisdom Skull as one of the championship rewards, proving that the Spirit Hall truly deserves its reputation for being a generous spender.
Keep in mind that this is a public place with many witnesses.
Now that Bibi Dong, as the Pope, has spoken, the Spirit Hall absolutely cannot go back on its word.
If the Spirit Hall team fails to win the championship, these three spirit bones must be given away, otherwise the Spirit Hall's reputation will plummet.
Given that the unification is imminent, there must be no blemish on their reputation. Therefore, let alone a 60,000-year-old head soul bone plus two reasonably valuable limb soul bones, even if they promised a 100,000-year-old soul bone, the Spirit Hall would not refuse.
Of course, there was a reason why the Spirit Hall still offered the Wisdom Skull of Spirit Condensation as one of the champion's rewards after the plan to kill Tang Hao failed.
If possible, the Spirit Hall would not want to lose this precious head bone.
However, there was no other way; the right to host this year's Soul Master Competition finals was obtained by the Spirit Hall from the Star Luo Empire.
The Star Luo Empire agreed to this because the Spirit Hall stated that it would offer three spirit bones as a reward, and that the exact three spirit bones had been determined in advance and could not be changed later.
Otherwise, if the Spirit Hall doesn't want to be shameless, and it seems that the Spirit Hall team won the championship, what if they just casually throw out three thousand-year or even hundred-year-old soul bones that aren't very valuable to get by?
After all, Tang Hao had recently pulled off a major heist in the Heaven Dou Empire. The Spirit Hall's purpose in demanding the right to host the finals was obvious. How could they get what they wanted without paying a price?
For the Star Luo Empire, regardless of who ultimately gets the soul bone, as long as it can bleed the Spirit Hall, a potential rival, it's all good!
At this moment, a bewitching voice rang out: "These three soul bones all come from soul beasts that are over ten thousand years old. They are the wisdom skull of spiritual condensation, the right arm bone of explosive burning flames, and the left leg bone of rapid forward movement."
Among these, the Skull of Condensed Wisdom comes from a soul beast over 50,000 years old, personally slain by the previous Pope. It is undoubtedly a top-grade soul bone, second only to external soul bones and the highest-grade soul bones produced by 100,000-year-old soul beasts.
The one who introduced these three soul bones was none other than Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan.
After Yue Guan finished speaking, Bibi Dong spoke again: "There can only be one victor, and the same goes for the champion."
Therefore, these three soul bones will belong to the final champion team. We hope that the teams that have entered the top three will give their all and win this honor.
This morning, you three teams will each send seven players to the individual elimination rounds. The winning team will have an advantage and directly enter tomorrow's championship battle. The two losing teams will compete for the other final spot in the afternoon.
Now, you can send your first player to draw lots.
The first match of the fifth round of the finals was an individual elimination match, just like the qualifying rounds, but this time three teams participated together.
Although this is not the final battle for the championship, it is equally important. Winning not only means entering the top two, but also means being able to conserve energy and better prepare for tomorrow's final battle.
A row of gilded chairs was placed in front of the Papal Palace. At Bibi Dong's signal, she sat in the center, with Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Huo Lie on her left and Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and Ling Yuan on her right.
The seven people took their seats, and the three teams, Blazing Fire, Heavenly Water, and Spirit Hall, each sent their first member to draw lots.
The Spirit Hall team did not send out the three members of the Golden Generation directly; the starting player was a tall, short-haired woman.
Unlike the Spirit Hall team, the first players to go on stage for the Blazing Fire team and the Heavenly Water team were not the weaker members of their respective teams, but rather their team captains, Mu Yang and Shui Bing'er.
Before the match officially begins, the starting players of the three teams will draw lots to determine the order in which they will play.
Those who appear last in the order of appearance will undoubtedly have a certain advantage.
The lottery results were released quickly.
Mu Yang had bad luck and drew the first spot to go on stage. The Spirit Hall team came in second, and the Tianshui team came in last.
However, at this moment, Shui Bing'er turned to face Bibi Dong, who was sitting in front of the Papal Palace, bowed slightly, and said, "Your Holiness, I, on behalf of the Tianshui Academy team, forfeit this match and will directly enter the loser's bracket this afternoon."
This was pre-arranged between the two teams. In the morning's individual elimination tournament, whichever team went first would forfeit and advance to the loser's bracket in the afternoon.
With Mu Yang and Shui Bing'er as their respective team's aces, whether it's Chi Huo or Tian Shui, they're guaranteed to win the individual elimination rounds against the Spirit Hall team. (End of Chapter)
