At the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, a series of work such as casualty statistics and explosion investigation work are carried out at the same time.

The explosion of the Central Arsenal was a very serious accident, and tens of thousands of fixed-mounted soul guide shells of various grades stored in it were detonated at the same time for unknown reasons, leveling all the buildings within a few kilometers.

Next to the arsenal was the Sun Moon Academy, and a considerable part of the academy was affected by the explosion, and the Mingde Hall built underground was reduced to nothing in the explosion.

Fortunately, the academy specially gave all personnel a month's vacation to prepare for the Soul Master Competition, and the researchers in Mingde Hall at the time of the explosion were only one-tenth of what they would normally be.

Still, it was a tragedy that hurt everyone. There were also cadets who lost their lives in the explosion.

Jing Hongchen personally came forward to give a public speech the day after the explosion and delivered a deep eulogy.

He knew in his heart that those people did not die in the explosion of the arsenal, but died under the attack of Xiao Ze earlier, and the arsenal was even more detonated by this former cronie. All the causes and effects seem to have arisen from him, the master of Mingde Hall.

Overnight, Jing Hongchen's appearance was old and thin.

As soon as the prince Xu Tianran learned the news, he sent his condolences to the Sun Moon Academy, and allocated all kinds of metal resources for the reconstruction of Mingde Hall, and Jing Hongchen had to be forced to accept it.

Perhaps, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince may have regarded this explosion as an unexpected joy in his heart.

As one of the representatives of the older generation of royal families, Prince Xu Guozhong died, and Xu Tianran could naturally come forward to compete with other princes for the power under his command. At the same time, he can take this opportunity to completely win over Jing Hongchen.

The important thing in Mingde Hall was never the underground base, but the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy and the high-level soul masters inside.

Sun and Moon Academy, inside Jing Hongchen's temporary office.

Jing Hongchen said to a royal priest wearing court clothes in front of him: "I ask you to tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince that the arsenal has become a ruin, and the cause of the explosion cannot be investigated at all. ”

"Whether it was caused by accident or deliberate by someone wrongdoer, it is unknown."

The royal family nodded and reassured: "Hongchen Hall Master, you can rest assured, no matter what the cause is, this matter is the responsibility of Prince Guozhong, and Mingde Hall and Sun Moon Academy are just unfortunately affected." ”

"I hope you will cheer up as soon as possible and preside over the restoration work."

Jing Hongchen responded and concealed all the reasons.

Just as the two were talking, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen broke in, saw the royal worship, and were stunned for a moment before quickly saluting.

The royal family enshrined a slight smile and said: "These two are Ling Sun, I hope you will not be affected by this matter and achieve better results in the next competition." ”

"Hongchen Hall Master, I won't bother you."

With that, he left the office.

There were no outsiders in the room, and Xiao Hongchen asked bluntly, "Grandpa, what happened yesterday?" ”

Jing Hongchen let out a long sigh and told the Hongchen brothers and sisters the truth about not being told the royal family.

Only then did the Hongchen brothers and sisters understand what a terrible crisis Mingdu had experienced invisibly, and they all felt that their minds were a little blank.

After a long time, Xiao Hongchen said with some hesitation: "Grandpa, where is Huo Yuhao?" ”

Jing Hongchen said with a solemn face: "I have asked many people, but I have not seen Huo Yuhao after the explosion. ”

Hearing this, Xiao Hongchen clasped his hands together, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

Meng Hongchen asked another key question: "Grandpa, those ninth-level custom-installed soul guide shells in Mingde Hall didn't explode, did they just keep being buried in the ground?" ”

Jing Hongchen sighed helplessly: "No, the entire underground has been blown up, the stratum can't bear it at all, and it's not a small project to dig up." ”

At this moment, a person broke in and said in surprise: "Hall Master, I have found Director Lin." ”

"What?"

Jing Hongchen immediately stood up from his chair, his eyes shining: "Take me to see him." ”

Lin Jiayi was placed in a luxurious bedroom, lying on the hospital bed, looking sick, surrounded by a group of senior soul masters who came to condole.

"Oops......" Lin Jiayi groaned in pain.

The people next to him kept praising him: "Director Lin, you are really amazing." ”

They were the ones who were present at the time and learned that Lin Jiayi went to the bottom of Mingde Hall alone to open all the shields, and it was his timely operation that saved Mingdu.

Lin Jiayi didn't deny it silently, looking at his expression, he still enjoyed the praise of others.

Jing Hongchen took the Hongchen brothers and sisters into the bedroom, and everyone stopped praising and said respectfully: "Hongchen Hall Master." ”

"You guys go out first, I'll talk to Jiayi alone." Jing Hongchen sent everyone away.

Lin Jiayi lay on the hospital bed and pretended to say: "Hongchen Hall Master, I ......"

"Okay, don't pretend, your breath is so steady, you are not sick or sick at all." Jing Hongchen scolded with a smile, "Well done, Jia Yi, you saved Mingdu." ”

Listening to Jing Hongchen's praise, Lin Jiayi couldn't stand it, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "Hall master, it's actually not me, I'm afraid there is someone else who saves Mingdu." ”

Jing Hongchen was stunned for a moment and motioned for him to continue.

Lin Jiayichen told Jing Hongchen about seeing Huo Yuhao and the two mysterious masters at the last moment before he fell into a coma.

"It turned out to be Huo Yuhao!"

Hearing Huo Yuhao's name, the Hongchen brothers and sisters were a little surprised.

Jing Hongchen was stunned for a moment, and his expression slowly calmed down.

Thinking carefully about the underground protection of Mingde Hall, in fact, the distance was so close, and those shields could not stop the power of the explosion of the arsenal at all.

"Did that Northern Earth Douluo make a move?"

Thinking like this, Jing Hongchen suddenly felt extremely relaxed in his heart.

If it was really Beidi Douluo who succeeded in preventing the explosion of the underground warehouse, then with his protection, Huo Yuhao should also be safe.

Thinking of this, Jing Hongchen showed a comfortable smile. After laughing, his expression returned to solemnity.

"Grandpa, the opponent of our Sun and Moon Team semifinals will soon be Huo Yuhao." At this time, Xiao Hongchen said loudly.

Jing Hongchen asked, "How are you going to deal with it, the captain?" ”

This question seems to be a bit too complicated, and even he, the master of the Mingde Hall, doesn't know what the optimal solution is for the time being.

On the bright side, the universal values of the mainland and the ministers of the Ming people are all anti-evil soul masters, but the Sun and Moon royal family prefers to cooperate with the evil soul masters. Now, the Northland family behind Huo Yuhao has clashed with the Holy Spirit Sect.

If more is bullied less, the Sun Moon Academy will also be despised like the Tang Sect team.

But at the same time, whether it is the mission of the royal family or the Sun and Moon Academy after the explosion, they all urgently need him to win the championship of the Soul Master Competition.

This is not only a simple honor and merit, but also an uplifting and hopeful aftermath of a disaster.

Xiao Hongchen lowered his head and pondered for a long time, and said seriously: "Grandpa, I want to choose the same approach as the Tang Sect team." ”

Jing Hongchen frowned and said, "What do you mean...... Also directly use a personal match to decide whether to win or lose? ”

"Yes." Xiao Hongchen had a smile on his face, "Grandpa, I may be the person who has fought Huo Yuhao the most times on this continent, I know his abilities too well. ”

"Whether it's his mental power or extreme ice, I've already figured out how to deal with it."

"If others are there, it will only hold me back."

While speaking, he also deliberately sent a meaningful look to Meng Hongchen at hand.

Xiao Hongchen dared to conclude that Huo Yuhao alone might not be able to beat the other six people, but he must be able to beat seven people, including Meng Hongchen.

Meng Hongchen snorted when he heard this, and turned his head away dissatisfied.

"But he's a Soul Emperor now." Jing Hongchen hesitated.

"I broke through the Soul Emperor a year earlier than him." Xiao Hongchen's tone was firm, and his eyes were full of pride, "Besides, I want to prove in this way that Sun Moon Academy is far above Shrek Academy." ”

Jing Hongchen said, "Okay, then it's up to you." ”

……

Ming Yue Hotel, Holy Spirit Troop.

"You said the Son hasn't come back yet?"

Ma Xiaotao returned to the room and looked at Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng coldly.

Zhang Peng frowned and nodded slightly.

Ma Xiaotao said lightly: "It's the semifinals soon, I hope the Holy Son has some concept of time." ”

The suite where the Snow Demon Sect is located.

In addition to all the younger generations, Poison Immortal and the other elders were also present, but everyone's faces were extremely solemn.

Now there's bad news and good news for Centennial Church.

The bad news is that Mingde Hall has been bombed.

The good news is that the Ontology Sect can't grab the Mingde Hall.

Not only that, but the explosion of the arsenal had another extremely significant impact on the Ontology Sect.

Giant Fist Douluo solemnly reported: "Sect Master, it's not good, there was an explosion in the center of the Ming Capital for unknown reasons, and the underground passage we dug collapsed as a result. ”

Poison Immortal asked in a deep voice, "Did the sun and moon discover our secret passage and deliberately destroy it?" ”

Giant Fist Douluo hesitated: "It shouldn't be, because Mingdetang was also completely destroyed in this explosion, there is no need for the Sun and Moon Empire to do such a desperate job, right?" It is said that an arsenal in the city exploded due to an accident. ”

"This ......" Poison Immortal was speechless for a while, and he couldn't help but be a little suspicious of this world.

How could such a coincidence occur? What do the people of the Sun and Moon Empire eat?

Not only did the arsenal be placed in the center of the city, but it was so poorly guarded.

He suddenly felt that this world was a little ridiculous, and he never expected that not only did he fail to rob Mingde Hall, but he also didn't even have an escape route.

This peerless powerhouse at the peak of the ninety-eighth level did not look very good.

They dared not to break through with Xingluo, and the confidence to stay in Mingdu was this extremely secret escape route, without this secret passage, they would not be able to send the younger generation out of Mingdu safely.

Poison Immortal also fell into the same difficulties as Xuan Lao.

He was confident to break through the blockade of the Sun and Moon army, but he couldn't protect the younger generation of the Ontology Sect.

"Sect Master, what should I do now?"

Just as Poison Immortal was pondering, a majestic voice sounded in the room.

"Poisonous old monster, you should have also found that the area around Mingdu has been blocked by the Sun and Moon army, right?"

The people of the Ontology Sect were instantly alerted.

Xuan Lao's figure appeared in the room.

"Why don't you join forces with my Shrek? Together, we have a higher chance of a successful breakthrough. ”

Poison Immortal scolded: "Xuanzi, now you know how to talk about cooperation?" Before, our Heavenly Soul Star Luo asked you Shrek to cooperate, didn't you have nothing to do with yourself? ”

Xuan Lao said lightly: "Poison is not dead, now is not the time to be rash, the southeast and north sides of the Ming capital have been surrounded by the Sun and Moon army, and there are five ninth-level soul guide shells on each side." ”

"Even if you can break through on your own, can you protect these little babies of the Ontology Sect?"

As he spoke, he deliberately glanced at Long Aotian and the others, and his attention was especially focused on Huo Qiu'er.

The closer he observed, the more he felt that this young man was not simple, and he must include this child of the Golden Dragon Martial Spirit in Shrek.

Poison Immortal was in a worse and worse mood, and scolded casually: "Could it be that you Shrek's people deliberately blew up the arsenal in Mingdu in order to force us to cooperate?" ”

Even the poison immortal himself didn't expect that he had guessed half of the words he complained casually.

But scolding and scolding, he also seriously thought about Xuan Lao's suggestion.

Poison Immortal squinted slightly: "Xu Tianran wants to trap us in Mingdu, isn't he afraid that we will fight with him to break the net?" ”

Xuan Lao heard the danger in the words of poisonous immortality, and was stunned for a moment: "Poisonous immortal, are you ......?"

Poison Immortal said coldly: "I use the people of the entire Ming Capital as hostages to threaten Xu Tianran to disperse the army, otherwise I will release my natal poison in the center of the Ming Capital." ”

"Poisonous old monster, are you crazy? You are damned by heaven for this! ”

"Sect Master, by all means!"

Xuan Lao and the people of the Ontology Sect objected at the same time and persuaded in unison.

If you do this, the entire Ming capital will be ruined, and once you use it, the consequences will only be the same.

"It's the last resort." Poison immortality naturally knows how harmful this is.

Moreover, the consumption and side effects of releasing the natal poison are also very large for him, and he will never do this until the last moment.

Xuan Lao continued: "Right now, only the west of Mingdu has no troops deployed, and there is only a mountain range. ”

"West...... Qiu'er, I remember that the finals of the Soul Master Contest you participated in were held in the western suburbs, right? Poison Immortal asked suddenly.

Huo Qiu'er nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"That champion's prize seems to be a ninth-level custom soul guide cannonball." Poison Immortal remembered something, and suddenly grinned.

Huo Qiu'er replied again: "Yes." ”

Poison Immortal said briskly: "Okay, since that's the case, let's take down that ninth-level fixed soul guide cannonball and break through directly from the west of the Ming Capital." ”

Vena said worriedly: "Sect Master, it is impossible for the Sun and Moon Empire to deliberately leave a safe exit, there must be an ambush outside the West Mountain. ”

Xuan Lao took a sip of wine and said, "This is also the reason why we dare not break through from Xishan rashly. ”

Huo Qiu'er said lightly: "Even if there is an army ambush outside the West Mountain, we can use the ninth-level cannonball we used in the Underground Soul Master Competition to detonate their cannonball in advance, and there will be no threat enough to intercept us." ”

Xuan Lao said in a condensed voice: "In this case, we will meet you in the western suburbs at that time." ”

Poison Immortal did not speak out to explicitly oppose it, which can be regarded as a tacit acquiescence in the cooperation with Shrek.

Before Xuan Lao left the room, he deliberately took one last look at Huo Qiu'er.

Huo Qiu'er silently looked from the windowsill, her brows furrowed.

Since yesterday, she has not been able to sense Huo Yuhao's position.
