Today's competition scene is no longer as lively as it used to be.
The vendors who wandered among the audience selling various sun and moon special snacks were gone, and the students who came from all over the sun and moon to cheer for their colleges were also missing...
Nearly a quarter of the seats in the entire arena were empty.
Most are Sun and Moon people, and a few are Douluo people.
The reason is that the six special soul guidance legions stationed around Ming Dou City by Sun and Moon have already entered Ming Dou City. Together with the five legions that had previously maintained order in the city, eleven people were suddenly squeezed into the small city. There were 3,300 people in this legion, and at the same time they began to set up soul guidance positions everywhere.
Considering the confrontation last night, the roaring and fighting at night, everyone should realize that something is wrong.
Therefore, except for those who were more courageous or believed in the soul master's convention, those who realized that the danger was close at hand chose to stay away from Mingdou City for the time being.
The very unpleasant thing is that the majority of people are still more courageous and willing to believe in the soul master's covenant.
The Soul Master Convention is a rule that has been stipulated since an unknown era, and is a rule among Soul Masters: that is, death battles between Soul Masters should be as far away from the crowd as possible, especially death battles between titles, which should only be conducted in the air or in the wild. .
A very friendly rule that is in line with the interests of ordinary people. After all, apart from the possible loss of lives, it will also take a long time and a lot of money to rebuild the building, and no one dares to ask the soul masters for reimbursement, right?
But the execution effect...
The Sun and Moon Empire, a country where soul masters are highly obedient to central management, can boast that the Douluo Three Kingdoms...
You can also boast.
They are all nobles, and they all need to learn some ten thousand-year-old noble etiquette from Yuexuan. Maybe they were in Yuexuan just yesterday to learn etiquette lessons with their beautiful aunt. A fight to the death would be very harmful to the harmony.
Just leave the killing to the evil soul master.
Naturally, there is no need to follow any rules when evil soul masters fight.
There are almost no fatal fights between banned accounts, so this rule is fairly fulfilled.
However, in the title-death battle between the Sun Moon Empire and the Douluo Three Kingdoms, God knows whether they still abide by the rules - anyway, the White Tiger Army God Dai Hao, who was once praised to the heavens and whose character was like a saint on earth, did not abide by these rules.
Otherwise, where did Xu Tianran pick up the orange?
Speaking of Dai Hao...
Qianjie ignored Wang Donger's chirping and turned his attention to the rostrum.
Xu Tianran and Orange were still on the podium, with decent smiles on their faces, like two mascots - in this soul fighting competition, they only need to play the role of one mascot.
Then there are more mascots behind them, the official representatives of the Douluo Three Kingdoms.
There was a trace of confusion between Qianjie's brows, why did that thing appear again?
——Dai Hao.
This "guest" who vomited blood and fainted on the rostrum on the first day actually returned to the rostrum today, and no longer looked like that crazy and silly image. Instead, he wore a coat with a tiger carved on the chest. The plate armor on his head, with a serious look on his face.
Like an iron-blooded soldier.
"What's wrong?" Qianjie's subtle expression changes could not be hidden from the people around him. Huo Yulin said while following Qianjie's gaze.
Then he turned his head away with a look of disgust on his face, as if he had seen something unclean.
——Dai Hao happened to look this way, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he smiled.
It's like an elder who feels happy when he sees the excellence of his younger generation, but doesn't know how to express his expression.
"Yulin?" Lang Baoer noticed the change in Huo Yulin's expression, and there was a hint of worry in his questioning voice.
Qianjie adjusted his glasses.
He probably gets it.
All the grievances that are expressed or hidden are not worth the word benefit.
It's nothing more than the loving father and son's filial piety that was performed in the original space and time. I want to change it to the loving father and daughter's filial piety - the original space and time was there to sit back and watch everything develop, playing the image of a hard-blooded soldier who sacrifices his family for everyone, waiting for others to take the initiative to come up and shout. Dad, instead he took the initiative to recognize his daughter.
Of course, not necessarily.
Maybe I still want to wait for others to take the initiative to recognize my father. Anyway, I can't escape the route of recognizing my father.
Dai Hao is not stupid. He may not be able to obtain the accurate information about Huo Yulin like the Sun and Moon Empire, but at least he can realize how powerful the girl's martial spirit is.
At worst, you can ask anyone about your game performance.
Qianjie estimates that it is the latter path. As Electrolux said, this group of feudal people cannot be expected to have much respect for personal experience and personality.
Not to mention that the Dai family's family tradition is surprisingly consistent with that of a certain god-king, and is absolutely patriarchal.
What choices might Huo Yulin make? Qianjie turned his head slightly and looked at the blue girl who had calmed down her emotions and folded her hands on her thighs like a princess.
The emotions said it all.
It's not like the original time and space now. A dung fork fell directly on top of his head, and he didn't need any son of the white tiger to add some ancient bloodline to himself.
Qianjie leaned back slightly again, listening to the chirping of the girl sitting in the back row.
The object of imprisonment has also been changed to himself, not to mention that the splicing of the doll has not been completed yet.
"What exactly happened yesterday?" Wang Dong'er was repeating this question over and over again, as if she would not give up until she got a thousand calamities of answers.
"An evil soul master invaded Mingdou City." Qianjie finally answered this time.
All eyes in the preparation table immediately turned to the young man who was smiling like a fox in the sun. No one was not curious about what happened yesterday.
After all, two of Shrek's titled Douluo died, and the looks in the arena today were too weird.
hostility? No, hostility has been everywhere since entering the west of the Mingdou Mountains.
It's something other than hostility.
They all seemed to be looking at some rubbish, and the eyes of those Douluo people were no longer enthusiastic and admiring, but rather filled with a certain questioning mood.
But when they asked, all they got from the teacher was: "It's not time for you to worry about this kind of thing."
"As for the result, I'm not sure. You can go back and ask Dean Yan." Feeling the curious eyes on him, Qianjie looked around, but he had no intention of answering their questions in depth.
result?
Naturally, there is no result. How can an extremely strong person be so easy to kill, even if he is a madman.
If you can’t fight, you can’t run?
Although that lunatic Ye Xishui had no intention of running away, if he wanted to kill an extremely strong man, he would have to pay the same price for the same extreme strong man to be injured, or to lose the consciousness of two or three Super Douluo.
Despite all the bans last night, it would be a dream to really expect any company to make sacrifices for the so-called "just cause".
Not to mention Zhong Liwu couldn't really watch the show all the time.
The final result was that Zhong Liwu saw that the momentum was not right, so he pulled Ye Xishui, who was already seriously injured but seemed to want to fight to kill Mu En, and fled into the Mingdou Mountains.
It doesn't matter what happens, the basic purpose has been achieved. Instead of focusing on the end of the battle, it is better to return to the spirit fighting competition in front of you.
Fourteen days have passed, and according to the results of the draw, it's time for Shrek to take the stage again.
There is no so-called tactical arrangement, or in other words, since the beginning of the competition, Shrek has highly delegated power to Qianjie, the vice-captain who is still a member of Shrek in name only, but whose rebellious intentions are obvious.
Maybe Ma Xiaotao, the nominal captain, can take care of it, but isn't he still lying down? It is expected that it will be possible to lie down until the end of the competition.
Shrek's teachers don't even bother to care about how to fight Qianjie. As long as they can fight, they can just admit defeat if they don't play.
Even the standard team leader in the Soul Fighting Competition, who is the logistics intelligence manager and tactic planner, didn't bother to send one.
Qianjie didn't have any tactics, or his tactical style didn't match Shrek's style.
Shrek's tactical purpose always revolves around one goal: glamour, and teamwork - ensuring that everyone has a substantial role, and it is best to highlight their individual personalities.
Qianjie's tactical style can be seen from his blood martial spirit: he just wants to be the sixth one. He can do sneak attacks but not head-on, and he can do long-range but not close combat.
This style was brought to its extreme after acquiring the Dream Butterfly Soul Bone Skill.
As we all know, people like Lao Liu are particularly easy to lose touch with the team and do their own thing.
So we discussed the necessity of tactics. Anyway, Qianjie couldn't find a suit to wear in Douluo, and he was not in the mood to get a suit. He liked a black and red windbreaker...
All in all, he doesn't play in a group.
After looking around at the Shrek players who were preparing for the match, I found that they really couldn't play in a group - Wu Feng on the first day was replaced by Ling Luochen, who was recovering from his injuries...
Ling Luochen turned his head away.
Well, I don’t know what the meaning of changing the injury number is. Could it be because today’s opponent, Zhengtian Academy, has a fire attribute soul sect?
Qianjie cast his smile on another person, Ning Tian who replaced Xu He.
"Is the captain wondering why one of my auxiliary departments came on stage today?" Ning Tian also responded with a gentle smile.
"No, I understand." Qianjie turned his attention again to the dark Liuguang Yiting in the center of the square.
He really understands.
There is something called political necessity.
Now it is not the chaotic mess of ten teams like the previous eleven days, but two teams with a total of fourteen people chasing and hunting each other in a defined environment. Therefore, there is no danger for purely auxiliary soul masters. So high.
Even they have been able to function normally - Liuguang Yiting, or the Sun and Moon Empire prepared only five maps for this Soul Fighting Competition. When the knockout rounds ended and entered the finals on the first day, the participating teams had already Realized how to do it.
Entry location is random, but contestants make it no longer random by gathering at a fixed location.
Since there are only fourteen people on the entire map, the probability of encounter is actually not high. Just gather your teammates and wait for the map to shrink for the decisive battle.
This meeting point is different for every team and every game.
Of course, if you don't want to wait, you can take the initiative and see if you can find someone.
Just because it works normally doesn't mean it will have a great effect. In reality, pure auxiliary soul masters are actually somewhat similar to soul mentors. The place where they can maximize their role is not in the arena.
If the souls of soul masters truly belong to the battlefield and the laboratory, then the place suitable for auxiliary soul masters is always the rear and logistics.
The reason why the auxiliary must be dealt with first in the arena competition is because if the auxiliary soul master is too threatening, it can be treated as a small joke.
The idea of using persimmons to pick out the soft ones and pinch them is more logical, but it doesn't sound very good.
After all, the auxiliary soul master is a character who becomes a large wooden stake after adding status. During a round of arena competition, no matter how bad the team is, the status can be increased for at most two rounds. A slightly stronger auxiliary soul can guarantee a good match. The state has not disappeared after the game.
As for the fact that auxiliary soul masters must be able to run, it can be called "necessary" in real circumstances, but it really doesn't make sense in the arena.
In a 100-meter-square arena, are all spirit masters turtles? No matter how fast an auxiliary type soul master can run, can the agility and attack type run faster?
In addition to showing off skills, a state can only be given to one person, and the state must be given to teammates only at critical moments. What about opening up new tracks, iterating on inherent play styles, and implementing differentiated assistance...
This is like forcing a show on yourself.
Although some auxiliary families have always been happy with it.
Of course, adding drama is not really about having nothing to do, as mentioned before: political needs.
It was the same as Ning Tian who wanted to interfere in this competition no matter what. After all, he was the best auxiliary spirit in the world, but it was too embarrassing for him not to participate in the competition.
To expand a bit, the auxiliary soul master must go to the arena instead of being in good condition off the stage. This may be the reason.
After all, it is a major category among soul masters. How can such a popular entertainment activity as a soul fighting competition not have an auxiliary system?
Qianjie cast his faint eyes on his thighs in black trousers, which was interesting.
…
"Zhengtian College, Ye Wuqing."
"Huo Yuhao." Qianjie smiled at the indifferent man in front of him.
Since it is not an arena competition, the etiquette of soul masters introducing themselves to each other can only be done before entering the Liuguang Yiting Court.
"You guys are very good. I thought Shrek sent a group of such young contestants that they couldn't get out of the big fight." After a moment of silence, seemingly unable to find a topic to talk about, the indifferent man named Ye Qingwu suppressed his words. Such a sentence.
He looks like he's not good at talking trash before games.
Qianjie did not reply immediately, but turned his head slightly and glanced at his teammates standing in a row with him: Except for Ning Tian, who realized something and his face turned a little ugly for a moment, the others looked indifferent - himself The three real teammates no longer belong to Shrek in a sense, and they don't care about this kind of praise; Ling Luochen has a cold face, and there is no change in his expression; but Wang Dong'er, a silly girl, puffs out her chest instead, You look like I would like to hear more praise...
Under normal circumstances, there is nothing wrong with such a normal compliment, but the question is, is it normal in the knockout round?
Does the victory result of the Knockout Tournament have anything to do with you? !
People laugh at you because you only know how to hug your thighs...
"It is innate soul power, not age, that determines a soul master's future and training speed." To be honest, there is no need to respond, but trash talking before the game is also a traditional art.
Ye Wuqing could no longer maintain the indifferent expression as if his face was paralyzed, and stared deeply at Qianjie.
He is twenty years old and is the fifty-eighth level Soul King; the silver-haired fox in front of him is no more than fourteen years old at most. He is a Soul Sect who is close to the Soul King, but his actual performance is a mystery.
Sarcasm doesn't have to be explicit; stating the truth can hurt.
"Please enter the immersion chamber for both players." The referee did not give the two sides a chance to continue mocking, and announced the fixed lines indifferently.
Ignoring the Zhengtian Academy in front of him, Qianjie waved behind him and walked into the immersion cabin. It's the familiar Naoren dance again, and the experience is really not that bad.
When consciousness once again had a real sense of reality, what came into view was a pure white world.
"Is it the iceberg map?" Qianjie frowned as he patted off the thin snow that had accumulated on his body in just a moment. This map is quite suitable for the Shrek team.
After all, they have an ultimate ice, an ice element that is close to the ultimate ice, an ancient person who lives in the world of ice and snow all year round, and himself who can barely play with ice.
"It seems very cold, but in fact it is far less than one-tenth of the coldness in the far north." The female voice in my mind accompanies me as I march through the wind and snow of thousands of tribulations.
"A product that combines space and illusion." Qianjie responded to the Ice Emperor one by one, "No matter who made it and by what means, its purpose is very clear - to serve mankind. So how could there really be temperatures that would freeze people to death?"
If the temperature were really like that in the far north, let alone Zhengtian Academy, except for the two true ice-attribute soul masters in Shrek, the rest of the people would have no choice but to huddle in the igloo and wait to be frozen into popsicles.
"What are you going to do now?" The Ice Emperor didn't dwell on the temperature issue, and instead asked about the purpose of Qianjie.
Based on her understanding of the landlord in front of her, she probably relies on Mengdie to hide on a certain path that her opponent must pass through, quietly waiting for her prey to be caught; or she may wait for her teammates to have a close fight with their opponent, and then slowly go out to collect the kills - -Compared to those who come in and rush to find opponents for a decisive battle, Qianjie has always been very patient in this regard.
The behavior of taking people's heads is very unpleasant, and it is not in line with the tradition that the control system is king, but...
What would an assassin be called an assassin if he didn't steal people's heads?
"Go to the meeting point first." Qianjie gave an unexpected answer.
"You also need teammates?" The surprise in Ice Emperor's words was undisguised.
"Why not? No matter how good I am, there are still three soul kings on the opposite side, right? I need to at least meet Yulin first." Qianjie raised his eyes slightly and looked at the heavy snow covering the sky and the earth.
In this kind of ice and snow, there is always a feeling of loneliness of being alone in the world, and then I look forward to having someone around me who can talk and chat, so that the cold will seem to weaken a little.
"What's more, among the three soul kings opposite, there are two who can be said to be born sixth."
A touch of purple came through the wind and snow.
boom!
The bright red blood was like boiling hot water, splashing in the cold wind along with the splashing ice and snow, but it slowly solidified after two breaths, and transformed into a hooded figure in black again.
Qianjie looked back at the mountain wall that had been blasted into a large crater, and at the purple arrows that were slowly disappearing. He then looked up at the birdman flying from a distance, and raised one hand to make a trumpet shape.
One is to make the sound louder and penetrate the wind and snow, and the other is to prevent the outside audience from seeing anything through lip reading.
"Can you tell me the reason why you found me so quickly?"
He only walked for a cup of tea in the wind and snow, so to be found so quickly, he was very unlucky.
It's not as if the other party met by chance, but rather he came prepared - that's probably a factor that's not very well known to the audience.
Cheating.
It's not just Shrek who knows how to play this game and take advantage of the rules, it's just that Shrek plays it the most blatantly.
"It's okay to tell you. We have a companion who can apply a mark on the enemy that has no soul reaction and only slight mental fluctuations." The girl with two wings in the sky also covered her lip movements with her wings.
Qianjie lowered his head. An arrow tip pattern was slightly glowing with purple fluorescence on his thigh and was already activated.
It looked like the same person who shot the arrow.
It's really not particular. If it's a few points off, Qianjie can really only be Qianjie.
"And we have already marked you outside the field." The girl's first soul ring in the air lit up slightly, and she raised her swords, "As long as we kill you and the other soul king in advance, Shrek will Nothing to fear!"
Qianjie ignored her and lowered his head to erase the mark on his pants. It was easy to erase.
Cheating off the court is understandable.
Even the principle of this operation is not incomprehensible. Liuguang Yiting throws the person in together with everything around the body - Qianjie can bring in Electrolux and Ice Emperor, and even everything in the space necklace can naturally also bring in Comes in a mark.
Naturally, Qianjie cannot be the only person who can notice this.
boom!
"Introduce yourself, Yu Mengdi."
The collision of the two light blades stirred up a snowflake, and through the dazzling golden light, Qianjie's smiling face and slightly opened golden pupils could be vaguely seen.
"Sister, you are in such a hurry. It's a pity that you are not my type." The light blade in his hand suddenly extended, and the other hand suddenly raised the golden light, and stabbed the woman in front of him with a sharp trajectory like an antelope hanging its horns. .
It's really not his thing, and he's not Bai Mao.
Yu Mengdi touched his cheek, the warm touch was so clear.
Even though she had reacted in time, she still didn't escape the blow.
But it doesn't matter. It's okay to die in Liuguang Yiting. If you go out, you'll just be depressed for a while.
"Shrek is truly unique in the superimposed release of soul skills." As she spoke mockingly, she also looked at the silver-haired boy on the ground.
To be honest, if he didn't always have that kind of smile that makes it difficult to see his true expression, he would probably have a face that could be supported by a bunch of rich women if he didn't work hard.
"Aren't you also uniquely endowed with each other?" Qianjie retracted the light blade, "At the same time, I want to correct you. This skill was developed by myself and has nothing to do with Shrek."
For the superimposed release of soul skills, for example, Huo Yulin first condensed the water flow and then froze the water flow.
This can be regarded as a superimposed release of soul skills, which is a very advanced skill among soul masters - the kind only taught in Shrek's inner courtyard.
Qianjie looked at the two blurry black figures behind the wind and snow, and then disappeared into the wind and snow.
The face of the figure holding a purple long bow not far away suddenly changed, and a vague sense of threat had spread throughout his body.
Only idiots engage in close combat with birdmen when there is a threat.
Come on, let’s face off at the middle gate!
