Chapter 124: Prologue Before the Competition (5,000 words)
Sun Wukong stood on the stage, accepting everyone's attention and fear, he waved his right hand, and the golden hoop stick on the limbs of the blood wolf instantly returned to his hand, and the blood wolf now has broken bones in all his limbs, although it is lighter than Xiao Xiao's origin, after all, the blood wolf is not intentional, and Sun Wukong is not good at heavy-handed.
Because all the students were already in a coma and couldn't get off the stage on their own, Zhengtian's leading teacher came up to carry away the students, and Sun Wukong walked to the side of the leading teacher before getting off the stage and said, "I'll be the first to go to the single knockout round." ”
After saying this, Sun Wukong stepped off the stage, leaving only the leading teacher with a blue face, Sun Wukong didn't want to say this, but if it wasn't, maybe Zhengtian still wanted to go to the single knockout tournament to become famous.
Back in the waiting area, Wang Yan preemptively said: "Wukong, how much strength do you use?" I'd like to know the approximate figures. ”
Wang Yan wasn't so excited, but after Sun Wukong's flying knife, he asked Ma Xiaotao and Dai Keyheng next to him, wondering if they could block this move.
The two looked at each other and said no, and even said that they couldn't even make the same attack, so Wang Yan couldn't help but ask Sun Wukong.
"Well, it's about seven." Sun Wukong said with his cheeks on his hands.
After all the members of Shrek heard this, they were all stunned, such a powerful trick came out, but it was only seventy percent of all the strength, how could there be such an exaggerated monster?
However, this is the case, Wang Yan knew that Sun Wukong didn't have to exaggerate himself so much, his original strength was enough to shock, he clapped his hands a few times, attracting everyone's attention, "Okay, we also know what Sun Wukong's strength is, we should be happy, with such a strength guarantee, our chances of winning the championship are one percent higher." And we've already got a ticket to the Final Four. ”
Wang Yan is right, but it is still difficult for everyone to withdraw from such a shock, the reserve team is okay, originally Sun Wukong is the peak they think is insurmountable, but the two soul emperors who are being selected are different, they know that Sun Wukong will surpass them in the future absolutely, but their idea is five years later, or even seven years later, but they didn't expect it.
The next game has already begun, Wang Yan knows that they still need time to digest, so he watched the game himself, which is also an excellent time to observe the opponent, the more backwards, the stronger the opponent, the more information is exposed.
The sun is slanting to the west, the fiery sunset slowly occupies the entire sky, and the spectators and players have begun to leave the square, after today's competition, the Continent's Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Contest is here, and it is also nearing the end, and the end also means the arrival of the climax.
At night, Sun Wukong came to the rooftop, where a person had long been standing, and his identity had been revealed by the iconic wine pot chicken legs.
Sun Wukong stepped forward and asked, "Old man Xuan, why did you call Lao Sun to come?" ”
Xuan Lao turned around and looked at Sun Wukong, the soft moonlight poured down like condensed snowflakes, Sun Wukong is cute at this time, compared with today's killing, it seems to be a different person.
"Sun Wukong, I called you over tonight, because I have a very important task to be handed over to you."
Even the chicken leg was put down, it seemed to be very important, Sun Wukong immediately straightened up and said, "I refuse." ”
The main reason why Sun Wukong came to Shrek was to find Electrolux to repay his kindness, and by the way, to experience the customs of another world and have fun. The first purpose, how to repay Electrolux's kindness, Sun Wukong has an idea based on the characteristics of Douluo Continent, but to complete Sun Wukong's goal, his current strength is far from enough, and what tasks have to be added, he is far from achieving his goal.
Xuan Lao was stunned when he heard Sun Wukong's reply, "You haven't listened yet!" Why did you think about refusing? ”
Sun Wukong looked at Xuan Lao and said, "Do you still need to listen?" The task will definitely take a long time, my strength is not enough, it will take a lot of time to go back to the academy to study after the competition, plus what tasks can I still cultivate? ”
Your strength is insufficient, the corners of Xuan Lao's mouth couldn't help twitching, the attack that can move me, is not as good as the cultivation of the Soul King, these two add up to your lack of strength.
After listening to Sun Wukong's explanation, a smile appeared on his face, and under the moonlight, he looked a little gloomy.
Sun Wukong secretly slandered: What does this old man think? Smiled like a chrysanthemum.
Xuan Lao continued: "It's right that you don't like to spend too much time studying, and my task can allow you to directly avoid studying." Do you accept this? ”
Hearing that he didn't need to study, Sun Wukong was of course happy in his heart, but he was still quite calm on the surface, and said: "You talk about it first, and then I will decide whether to participate or not." ”
Xuan Lao poured a sip of wine and began to explain to Sun Wukong, Xuan Lao said, Sun Wukong's eyes lit up.
After Xuan Lao finished explaining, Sun Wukong said directly: "You mean, I can move freely in the future, sniping the traces of evil soul masters all over the continent, right!" ”
Xuan Lao nodded, and then added: "Having said that, many people only know your strength, but they haven't seen it with their own eyes, so after you end the game, you have to show your strength first and then get ready to go far." ”
After hearing this, Sun Wukong jumped up excitedly, and seeing Sun Wukong's excited appearance, Xuan Lao smiled on the side.
When Sun Wukong returned to the room, his ears heard movement next door, as if he heard the sound of conversation in Wang Yan's room.
It's a pity that the other voice didn't speak when Sun Wukong heard it, but Sun Wukong combined with the people Wang Yan had been in contact with in the past two days, the people who would come to Wang Yan's room so late, thinking about it, the most likely one is the female auctioneer, right?
Sun Wukong was not sure, so he had to lie in bed and prepare to sleep, but it's a pity! This time Sun Wukong couldn't sleep comfortably, and an inexplicable throbbing appeared in Sun Wukong's mind, Sun Wukong thought for a while and said loudly: "It's not good!" ”
Fortunately, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi went to take a bath, otherwise they would have been startled by Sun Wukong, and Sun Wukong was not easy to explain, Sun Wukong had just sensed that his dormant divine thoughts had dissipated.
Sun Wukong was lying on the bed, chanting a mantra in his mouth, and Sun Wukong's spirit came out of his body and came to Wang Yan's room through the wall.
Wang Yan stood to the side with blank eyes at this time, and in front of him was Huo Yuhao and the strange knife.
Huo Yuhao glanced at Sun Wukong with gray eyes, and Sun Wukong immediately knew that this was Electrolux controlling Huo Yuhao.
The deep and seemingly endless gray in those gray eyes made Huo Yuhao look a little holy.
Huo Yuhao's gaze focused on the Spirit Devouring Murder Knife. A faint gray light shot out like something tangible, and landed directly on the carving knife.
The gray light was naturally Electrolux's spiritual power, and the moment the gray spiritual power released by Electrolux landed on the Soul Devouring Carving Knife. The fierce knife trembled violently, and a humming sound like a terrible scream continued to come from the carving knife, and if it was a person with a weak will, I was afraid that his emotions would be violently affected when he heard this sound.
Suddenly, Electrolux's voice came from Huo Yuhao's side, but the strange thing was that Huo Yuhao's mouth didn't move at all, "Injecting evil thoughts and curses into the gold of living beings, it's really a shame that this initiator can think of it." He only felt the huge energy within the Soul Gold, but he didn't know how to unleash the true power of the Soul Gold. Purify, Soul Gold, and I will restore you to what you are. Expel all filth and bloom your purest breath of life. ”
The color of Huo Yuhao's eyes changed again, and the previous gray gradually turned into white, which was flawless white, pure as jade, white as snow. The gray spiritual power also instantly turned into this white purifying light.
This time, the Soul Devouring Knife was not trembling, as if it was dying of resistance, and a strong blue light suddenly burst out from its body, and the blue light actually formed a hideous face in the air, making a crazy roaring gesture, as if it was going to devour the slender white light emitted by Electrolux in turn.
However, despite the fact that the purifying light was very small, when it landed on the Soul Eater Knife, it felt like boiling oil was pouring into a snowdrift. In just a moment, half of the hideous face in the blue light was blurred, and the original appearance that was still very hideous suddenly became blurred, and the blue light was still strong, but from the blue light, there were streams of black air that transpired and disappeared under the action of the purifying light. The cyan glow on the Soul Eater began to grow purer and softer.
The entire purification process was very short, and soon, the last wisp of black air on the Soul Devouring Knife quietly disappeared, and the blue light emitted by its body became as clear as water, without a trace of impurities. The original black body of the carving knife has also become an existence like a cyan crystal.
Electrolux sighed deeply, "I didn't expect that I was so weak, but just a little use of the power of purification would make me feel so tired and weak. Sun Xiaoyou, I really don't have the energy to greet you, I'm really sorry. ”
Sun Wukong didn't care and said: "It's okay, Engong is really good at soul things!" ”
Electrolux didn't even have the strength to be polite, he smiled lightly and went back, Huo Yuhao's eyes and Wang Yan recovered at the same time, Wang Yan, who was still like a walking corpse just now, said in surprise: "Huh? ”
He found that the carving knife in front of him had changed a lot, and in fact, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the original gloomy and fierce aura was gone, and the clear and crystal-like carving knife actually gave people a sense of vitality.
And Sun Wukong didn't care about Wang Yan's expression, he blew a breath to Huo Yuhao's side, and another divine thought quietly took root in Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea, in order to prevent the divine thought from dissipating again, Sun Wukong deliberately strengthened the spiritual power of this divine thought.
After doing this, Sun Wukong didn't care about the two of them, and went directly to his room, the three of them lived in a large room in the hotel, which had two bathrooms, but they were all occupied, Sun Wukong was disturbed by the throbbing just now, and now he didn't feel sleepy.
Cross-legged and ready to practice, Sun Wukong's mind had already sunk, and he was settled in a second.
The cultivation state is very good, but it is not running at full strength, and the speed is still much slower, but it is better than nothing.
Cultivating until ten o'clock in the evening, a full hour passed, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi came back, it seems that they just went out for a trip, maybe to buy some food, after all, they didn't eat much for dinner today.
Seeing that Sun Wukong was still practicing, Xu Sanshi walked over and patted the mattress, Sun Wukong woke up, and the moment he opened his eyes, the divine light shot half a foot, and Xu Sanshi was almost stabbed.
Xu Sanshi said to Sun Wukong: "We're done washing, you go take a bath first!" Don't practice at night, your movement is too big, I don't know if you think we have any treasures here. ”
Sun Wukong said disdainfully: "What kind of treasure, comparable to your monkey brother, you cultivate!" I went to take a shower. ”
When they came back from taking a bath, Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei didn't practice at all, but lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Sun Wukong didn't have anything to say, and he went to bed himself.
On the third day, Zhengtian really didn't continue the game, but conceded defeat on the grounds of physical discomfort, and then Shrek had a lot more free time, because the opponents of other teams did not admit defeat!
But Wang Yan didn't let them go in these free times, but took the selected players and Sun Wukong to have a discussion meeting for a few days, and the reserve team replied early because the main players had all replied, and they didn't need to be substituted for a few days to really enjoy it.
It has been six days since the team battle with Zhengtian, and today is the beginning of the semi-finals, and Wang Yan has made all the current information clear to the main selection of players, including the four teams in the semi-finals.
In the interest of fairness, when it comes to the semi-finals, the semi-finals will be drawn before the match to decide the match. But Wang Yan still knows the identity of the opponent and the personnel information.
The first opponent, the familiar Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, the captain Ma Rulong has not played until now, but according to Wang Yan's guess, Ma Rulong should be a soul emperor. He is also the only soul emperor in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
In addition, the six main team members are all at the Soul King level. However, there are only two soul kings who are over level fifty-five, and the rest are all soul kings in their early fifties.
The second opponent, the Star Luo National Academy, did not have a Soul Emperor team member, but they also had as many as six Soul Kings. But Wang Yan did not despise them, and said to Sun Wukong and others that their home advantage was likely to change unexpectedly.
The last opponent, the Diao Academy, consists of one Soul Emperor and six Soul Kings. However, they are mainly soul masters, assisted by soul masters. Among the seven members of the main selection team, two Soul Kings are Soul Masters. However, according to my observation and analysis, they should not be able to reach the level of a fifth-level soul master.
The rules of the game have changed compared to the eight-in-four, and the team battle plus the individual knockout round will be adopted, but only when the two games are all won, it will be considered a victory, and if you lose once, then there will be an additional two-two-three battle. Moreover, after the two sides have selected seven players, these three games will be carried out in one go, with no breaks in between. Two wins in three games, and the final winner will be the champion.
In other words, if Sun Wukong wants to play, then he has to replace the next positive candidate, and it is Xixi who is replaced, because Chen Zifeng's soul power is higher than her, and Ling Luochen, Yao Haoxuan and Ram Mo are responsible for assisting in controlling the field, and this Sun Wukong can't do it, so he has to replace her.
However, in the first two games, Xixi also made a great contribution, in the case of Ma Xiaotao and Dai Keyheng, the two soul emperors, were restricted by Wang Yan, she and Chen Zifeng took on the responsibility of attacking the fortification, and many opponents remembered her as a ghost-like sensitive attack soul king.
As soon as the Shrek Academy team in a dark green suit appeared on Xingluo Square, it caused a tsunami of cheers.
From more than 100 teams at the beginning of the competition, to the final four now. For the remaining four teams, each team will only have two battles left at most. The decisive moment has arrived, and so has the time to go all out. Such a tense atmosphere completely mobilized the emotions of the audience.
The rest area has been remodeled so that only four areas remain, each with each team located far away from each other.
There was still nearly half an hour before the start of the game, and the people of the four teams had already arrived.
Occasionally, the four teams will have sparks bursting out of each other, and while the fighting spirit is high, the atmosphere in the rest area has become solemn, tense, and even a little solemn.
The sky is getting brighter, and the weather is still good today, and the sun is shining on the vast Xingluo Square, which makes the whole square covered with a faint layer of gold. But in the eyes of the four teams that made it to the top four, this is not only sunshine, but also the glory that they must fight for with all their might.
On the first day of the semi-finals, a team battle.
Ten minutes before the start of the draw, the gates of the Imperial City Palace were wide open. His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire strode out surrounded by the palace guards and walked straight in the direction of the competition platform.
The audience was very excited to see the king of the country, and shouted loudly, and all the soldiers responsible for maintaining order raised their weapons in their hands, and the mountain shouted long live.
The members of the four teams also stood up one after another and saluted His Majesty the Emperor.
Beside the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire, there were four old men, and the four of them formed a square, and His Majesty the Emperor was at the center of this square. The guards who followed behind were only twenty people, which did not seem to be an exaggeration.
A small number of guards, but this protective ability is already the best that Xingluo can do, in Sun Wukong's perception, these four old men are probably all Titled Douluo-level powerhouses enshrined in the Star Luo Empire.
The one hundred and eight soul masters who were in charge of protection around the competition platform bowed to the emperor at the same time, but they did not bow down. According to the regulations of the Star Luo Empire, royal soul masters above the fourth ring do not need to kneel and bow.
His Majesty the Emperor stepped onto the stage surrounded by the four Titled Douluo, looked in the direction of Xingluo Square, and said with a smile: "My people, get even." ”
"Hooray, hooray, hooray."
There was a burst of cheers in Xingluo Square, which showed that His Majesty the Emperor was very much loved by the people.
The Emperor of the Star Luo Empire didn't stop the commotion, but just looked at the civilians in the distance with a calm gaze and a smile. It wasn't until the square fell silent that he began to speak with a smile.
Emperor Xingluo's speech was not long, but it was also very boring, and among the four old men who followed him to the stage after the end, the one in front of the left took two steps across, facing the direction of the rest area, and said in a deep voice: "Please ask the captains of the four teams to come to the stage to draw lots." ”
An indescribably powerful aura suddenly burst out from the old man's body, and the astonishing coercion even made everyone in the Star Luo Square feel like the sky was dark.
