"Don't worry about it. Just proceed as you should. Winning is a skill of the Ordinary Alliance."
Zhang Laoxin waved his hands and sneered in his heart.
He is a traditional research-oriented soul guide, and has always disliked these underground soul guide competitions that are only about fighting and killing. Since the rules allow it, he will not say much.
What's more, the original intention of these underground soul guide competitions has nothing to do with promoting the development of soul guides. Aren't they just bloody games organized by these underground forces for gambling or other interests?
Mr. Zhang didn't say anything more, but he was becoming more and more interested in the upcoming competition.
"time up."
The timing soul guide sounded, and Mr. Zhang loudly announced the end of the skill assessment.
Nine people took the test, three completed it, and six did not. After evaluation by seven referees, the one with the lowest completion rate among the unfinished was eliminated, and that person was the third contestant from the Ordinary Alliance.
There are eight players left, and they will compete in the next match. The player with the highest skill score will compete with the player with the lowest skill score, the second highest skill score will compete with the second lowest skill score, and so on.
Surprisingly, Huo Qiuer's skill score was not the last, and there were contestants from the Aodu Chamber of Commerce who scored lower than him.
He had spent too much energy in the previous production process and had no strength to concentrate. As a sixth-level soul engineer, his assessment completion rate was even worse than that of the fourth-level soul engineer Huo Qiuer.
Huo Qiuer's opponent is one of the temporary soul mentors of Xishui League, and Ye Guyi's opponent is from Aodu Chamber of Commerce.
Without too much rest, the third round of competition began.
"The first match, the first place vs. the eighth place."
The first place was Huang Zheng from Xishui League. The soul guide he made was a giant metal claw with a ferocious appearance.
His methods were extremely bloody. Three extremely sharp light blades popped out from the giant metal claws, directly cutting off the soul guide of the contestant from the Aodu Chamber of Commerce along with half of his body.
As the chief referee, Mr. Zhang did not stop it. He just frowned and announced the result of the game ruthlessly.
This is the characteristic of the underground soul guide competition. No matter what the means, life or death, the referee will never stop the game unless one party voluntarily admits defeat or dies.
The second match of the top eight was between Huo Qiuer and the second contestant from Xishui League. He was a bald man with half of his face tattooed with hideous black patterns. He was about 25 years old and had a ferocious look on his face.
The bald man walked onto the stage, glanced at the soul guide gun in Huo Qiuer's hand with disdain, and let out a sinister laugh.
"Hehe, the teacher reminded me to be extremely careful with you, but I didn't expect you to be just like that."
"I don't take soul guides of that level seriously at all."
As he spoke, he carried a wind tunnel-shaped soul guide in his hand on his shoulder, and six soul rings with the best ratio flickered behind him.
His talent in soul guides is slightly weaker, and he is only a fifth-level soul guide, but he is a real evil soul master and soul emperor.
"Oh, okay."
Huo Qiuer sighed and threw away the soul guide gun in her hand. Six soul rings with the best ratio appeared behind her, and her arms were covered with golden dragon scales.
"Then I won't have to."
This move was so shocking that it caused an uproar in the audience.
In a soul guide competition, if you throw away your soul guide device and use your martial soul to fight instead, is this still a soul guide competition?
But on second thought, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it. After all, the rule of the underground soul guide competition is that there are no rules, life and death are not important.
When the bald evil soul master saw Huo Qiuer's appearance after being possessed by her martial spirit, he opened his mouth and was stunned for two seconds. A trace of fear appeared in his eyes, and cold sweat unconsciously flowed down his bald head.
"It turned out to be you!"
He had already recognized Huo Qiuer as the Dragon Martial Soul Master who had killed two evil soul masters in the semi-finals of the Soul Master Competition.
Unexpectedly, she not only appeared in the finals of the Soul Instructor Competition, but also became her opponent.
Even the Evil Soul Holy Bone Sheath was defeated by her, so how could she possibly win?
Wait, who knows, maybe, now I have a soul guide in my hand, while the opponent is unarmed.
The bald evil soul master narrowed his eyes unconsciously, and a hint of greed flashed through his eyes.
"The second match, the second place vs. the seventh place..."
"Wait a minute!" the bald evil soul master interrupted immediately.
Just when everyone thought he was going to say something, the bald evil soul master simply said, "I give up."
Having said that, he slipped away.
The audience was all stunned. They didn't expect that this bald man with a fierce look on his face was so timid that he gave up without even fighting.
Some people joked that he was frightened by the bloody scene of the previous match, and some gamblers who bet on the Xishui Alliance even started cursing.
In the third game, Ye Guyi easily defeated his opponent from the Aodu Chamber of Commerce and advanced to the semi-finals.
In the fourth game, Xishui League eliminated the third player of Aodu Chamber of Commerce.
At this point, the Aodu Chamber of Commerce had been completely eliminated. The final four only had two players from Xishui League and Pingfan League.
The draw for the semi-finals went smoothly, as Huo Qiuer and Ye Guyi did not draw each other. Ye Guyi's opponent was Huang Zheng, while Huo Qiuer's opponent was another temporary substitute disciple of the Third Elder.
Somewhat surprisingly, Huo Qiuer's opponent chose to admit defeat again.
Next is the competition between Ye Guyi and Huang Zheng.
The audience was already excited and paying special attention to the next game.
If Ye Guyi won, then the championship of this underground soul mentor competition would be in the pocket of the Ordinary Alliance.
This competition determines the control of the smuggling of rare metals. Almost all the nobles present have interests in it, so they are naturally particularly concerned.
Behind the Xishui Alliance stands His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and behind the Pingfan Alliance stand the nobles represented by several princes. Whichever side wins will be enough to change the situation in Mingdu.
Both sides walked onto the competition stage.
Ye Guyi looked at Huang Zheng not far ahead, his pretty face now looked cold.
This was her original purpose in participating in the Soul Master Competition, to personally eliminate these evil soul masters on the field, practice the justice in her heart, and live up to the name of a holy angel.
However, the Pingfan League only saw itself as a tool to deal with the Xishui League.
But now, Ye Guyi has found a place where she can practice her justice. Before leaving, she must follow her original intention and kill the evil before her with her sword.
"Game start!"
Huang Zheng opened his giant soul-guiding claws, and three sharp purple-black blades instantly lit up and slashed straight towards Ye Guyi.
He had no intention of showing mercy to women. The soul ring behind him flickered and he used the bloodiest killing move right from the start.
Ye Guyi took a deep breath, raised the sword high with both hands, and a rich sacred aura surrounded his whole body.
A pair of pure white wings slowly opened behind her, and the strong golden-white light swept away all the darkness and evil in front like a tsunami.
Xishuimeng rest area.
Nangong Wan frowned and said, "Deputy leader, the championship is a matter of great interest. Do you really want to give it to the Ordinary Alliance?"
Feng Ling said coldly: "No hurry, let the Ordinary Alliance be proud for a few days, and wait until the Holy Church welcomes the return of the Golden Dragon Saint, then it won't be too late to slowly settle the accounts."
"Do you really think those princes can protect them? Xu Tianran has long wanted to take action against those princes, it's just a little troublesome."
This was the plan of the Xishui League. Because of Huo Qiuer's presence, they would temporarily give up the Soul Instructor Competition championship, and then use violent means to take back the interests that should have belonged to the Xishui League.
But in the next moment, all the elders of the Holy Spirit Church, led by Feng Ling, and the Holy Lady of Fire Phoenix, stood up, staring at the stage with wide eyes. The atmosphere around them was completely cold.
What did they see?
Huang Zheng was engulfed by Ye Guyi's golden-white light, not even a trace of ash was left.
This is not a light attribute, this is the nemesis of evil soul masters, the sacred attribute. This is the great enemy of the Holy Spirit Church, and we must not let it grow.
In the eyes of Feng Ling and others, Ye Guyi was no different from a corpse.
Feng Ling said in a low voice: "After the game, we will go to welcome the return of the Golden Dragon Saint. We must not let her have the chance to escape. We must kill her now."
The third elder had a ferocious look on his face: "I'll go kill her!"
Feng Ling raised her right hand: "Everyone else, please stay put for now and listen to my orders. The most important thing is to welcome the return of the Golden Dragon Saint. Zhang Peng, you are not from the Xishui League, go and deal with her."
"The sooner the better!"
"Yes."
Scorpion Tiger Douluo took the order and immediately disappeared into the rest area.
The game ended in such an unexpected way. The Pingfan League actually defeated the Xishui League, the largest underground force in Mingdu, with an absolute advantage.
There was no need to continue the finals, and all the rewards were sent to the Ordinary Alliance.
Two tons of rare metals, the ninth-level soul guide weapon, the Sun and Moon Divine Needle, and the most important ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shell.
Old Zhang handed the Sun and Moon Needle to Shangguan Weier, briefly explained its usage, and looked at her with some sneer.
"Shangguan Weier, you are still so cunning."
Shangguan Weier smiled slightly: "I am only doing things for the prince."
Old Zhang looked at Huo Qiuer and was about to say something when he saw Shangguan Weier winking at him. Only then did Old Zhang notice the Benti Sect, Shrek and others.
Even with Zhang Lao's status as a ninth-level soul instructor, he felt an inexplicable sense of distress.
His eyes shrank slightly, as if he realized something, and he quickly said, "I also asked the Shangguan leader to pass on a message to the prince on my behalf, and I will definitely visit him in person on a chosen day."
After saying that, Mr. Zhang left.
Shangguan Weiler took the championship reward and looked at Du Bu Si and Xuan Lao respectfully.
"Thank you two seniors for helping our Ordinary Alliance win the championship. This is a small token of my gratitude. I hope you will accept it."
Du Bu Si laughed loudly: "Then I feel embarrassed."
He stretched out his hand and reached for the Sun and Moon Divine Needle and the ninth-level fixed-type soul guide shells.
Xuan Lao narrowed his eyes slightly: "Old Monster Du, are you a little too self-conscious?"
Du Bu Si said: "This is the reward Qiu Er won. Why not let me play with it for a bit?"
"But I, Shrek, also contributed a lot to this championship." Old Xuan said as a matter of course.
Du Bu Si was not going to tolerate him and directly scolded him, "Go to hell, Xuanzi, you, Shrek, didn't contribute a bit, and you think it's your credit to accept a ready-made disciple?"
Elder Xuan frowned and said, "I remember that your Benti Sect never liked soul guides."
"That was in the past. I like what I like, so what do you care?"
Yan Shaozhe stepped forward to stop them at the right time and said, "Master Xuan, Senior, we should not stay here for long. Let's leave Mingdu from Xishan first..."
