Team Sun Moon's opponent in the quarterfinals this time is the Snow Demon Sect, one of the two sects that Xie Heng had specifically targeted. This Snow Demon Sect is actually the Noumenon Sect, and the Noumenon Sect is not inferior to Shrek in terms of strength on paper. The power of the academy is undoubtedly very powerful, and they have not shown their full strength in the previous battles. Even the Sun and Moon Team must be wary of them.
Furthermore, we must also consider whether the Snow Demon Sect is the main team responsible for killing Huo Yuhao. This is a top priority and cannot be ignored. Huo Yuhao's safety is the most important thing.
Regarding this point, the Sun and Moon Empire has made preparations for all external conditions. Emperor Ming has arranged two main groups of soul mentors outside the arena. Once there is any trouble in the Douluo Alliance, these two soul mentors will The regiment will be dispatched immediately, and the place will be surrounded by water. Not to mention the high-level soul masters, combined with the soul master group, it will not be a problem to wipe out all the Douluo coalition forces here.
But if there is no movement from the Douluo Alliance, these people will not dispatch easily. The reason is very simple. The Sun and Moon Empire still wants the champion of this Soul Master Competition. If the troops are sent to disturb the order, the competition will definitely be cancelled. Therefore, , even if it knew that the Douluo Alliance would make small moves, the Sun and Moon Empire could not alert the enemy.
The two sides have reached a balance to a certain extent. As long as one side has the slightest disturbance, it will affect the whole body. How to break the situation depends on the actions of both sides.
At present, it seems that the Sun and Moon Empire has a considerable advantage, because with the efforts of all aspects, especially the efforts of Huo Yuhao and the younger generation, the Sun and Moon Empire has basically mastered most of the information and has made sufficient plans. Now they are just waiting for the Douluo Alliance to take action, and they are still completely in the dark.
The Douluo Alliance thought they had the initiative, but in fact as long as they took action, no matter what time it was, they would face the Sun-Moon Empire's prepared action team. The Sun-Moon Empire would naturally have the upper hand, but the outcome of the subsequent battle would depend on It depends on the on-the-spot performance of both sides.
This is an article made by the Sun and Moon Empire in an invisible place. With Huo Yuhao's side, the Sun and Moon Empire pays more attention to the referee's position. This time the referee is no longer Zheng Zhan, although he is a ninth-level soul master. But to put it bluntly, he has just entered the ninety-level realm, and his strength is still relatively limited. He may not be able to take correct measures at critical moments.
Therefore, since the beginning of the quarter-finals, the referee of the competition has been replaced by Jing Hongchen, a ninety-fourth level titled Douluo, who is only one step away from the Super Douluo and is the most powerful soul master in the Sun and Moon Empire. First, with him here, all the people who were worried about Huo Yuhao could put down some of their worries. No matter what methods the Douluo Alliance had, they would not be arrogant in front of Jing Hongchen, otherwise they would not adopt such a method. Plan to assassinate Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, is it okay? Otherwise, let me go today?"
Early in the morning before the start of the game, when everyone in the Sun Moon Team was preparing to leave for the stadium, Xiao Hongchen came to Huo Yuhao and said to him.
"Brother Xiao, let me do it. If the Snow Demon Sect is really the execution team of the Douluo Alliance, they will definitely force me to appear. If I don't play, you will be in great danger. If they are not, then it doesn't matter if I don't go up. ? Brother Xiaoxiao, Yuhao is not cowardly enough to let others bear the risks that I should bear for me."
Huo Yuhao looked at Xiao Hongchen and smiled and seriously rejected his suggestion. Huo Yuhao would not let anyone take the risk on his behalf. It was not him.
"Brother, Yuhao is right, let him go."
Xiao Hongchen was still hesitant for a moment. He thought that if he went up first, even if the other party really had any means, they wouldn't use them all on him. Huo Yuhao would still have room for maneuver, so he wouldn't be faced with it as soon as he went up. The greatest danger.
However, Meng Hongchen's persuasion brought Xiao Hongchen back to his senses. Yes, Yuhao was definitely not that kind of person. He would not agree to let him fight when he knew there was danger. Xiao Hongchen let go of his persistence.
Meng Hongchen on the side smiled happily when she saw her brother no longer insisting. She persuaded Xiao Hongchen not because she was not worried about Huo Yuhao, but because she understood Huo Yuhao's thoughts. Just like if the protagonists were exchanged, neither she nor her brother would Make the same choice as Huo Yuhao. In this case, there is no need to say these unnecessary words.
After the exchange, Xie Heng took them to the competition venue. From this game on, the Sun and Moon team must go all out, not only because of the increasingly powerful opponents, but also because of the Da Da hanging above their heads. The Sword of Morcris.
Since they had two days of rest and no games to watch, all the spectators Team Sun Moon met along the way were full of enthusiasm and could not suppress their excitement at all. This was a quarter-finals battle. Just thinking about the excitement of the game was overwhelming. People can't sleep.
"What do you think the result of today's game will be?"
"I don't care about the results of other teams' games, as long as they are good to watch. I don't care whether the Sun Moon Team's games are good or not, as long as they win."
"Yes, it's different with the home team. I just want them to win all the way. But fortunately, they also have the strength, so there is no need to be worried, hahahaha."
The Sun and Moon Team were sitting on the carriage, with the curtains covering their faces. Others could not see their faces and did not recognize that their main team was beside them.
The group of people listened quietly to the noisy words outside. One of the interesting words reached everyone's ears. Everyone who heard the conversation smiled slightly. Is this the voice of the fans? It is quite interesting.
After everyone looked at each other and smiled, they remained silent, silently remembering the wishes of the supporters and striving to bring them stable happiness.
The carriage arrived at the arena without traveling too far. Everyone from Team Sun and Moon dismounted their horses one after another, entered the arena before being surrounded by fans, and headed to Team Sun and Moon's preparation seat.
After arriving at the preparation table, there was actually a person waiting here. When everyone took a closer look, they turned out to be the little princess of the royal family, Xu Tianzhen.
"Qiu'er, you are here!"
Xu Tianzhen heard someone coming from behind. She turned around and saw that it was a group of people from the Sun and Moon Team. She shouted Qiu'er excitedly.
"Hiss~"
Seeing that it was Xu Tianzhen, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but have a headache. Why did they still have to rely on them? Didn't they say that they would go to Emperor Ming to discuss it as soon as the matter here was over? It seemed that she really liked Qiu. Son, I don’t want to separate at all.
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao glanced at Wang Qiu'er, who was greeting Xu Tianzhen briefly, and his heart tightened. Damn it, Qiu'er can't really be broken by her, right? Dang even though he was extremely nervous, he gently pulled Qiu'er behind him, straightened himself forward, blocked Qiu'er from behind, and asked:
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
When Xu Tianzhen saw Huo Yuhao blocking Wang Qiuer behind him and unable to see Qiuer, his face darkened and he said, "Why can't I come? Anyway, the Mingdu team has been eliminated, can't I watch it as an audience? Don't forget Yes, members of the royal family can watch the game above your heads, so I have humbled myself by coming to your place."
Xu Tianzhen felt unhappy, which suddenly made everyone else unhappy too.
"What are you proud of? Your general has been defeated, huh, you still have the nerve to mention it."
It's hard for others to tell, but Meng Hongchen doesn't like her. This Xu Tianzhen is spoiled by others and needs to be disciplined. Meng Hongchen is not afraid of her identity and will attack her hard.
Moreover, she had heard from others that Xu Tianzhen came to Huo Yuhao that day and said she wanted to marry him, which made Meng Hongchen furious. Although she did not think that Xu Tianzhen wanted to marry Huo Yuhao just to argue with her. But this is really irritating. Yuhao is mine, plus Qiu'er at most. Why are you here to join in the fun?
Xu Tianzhen knew that Emperor Ming was involved in this. If Emperor Ming's will intervened, Meng Hongchen would not be able to stop it, but it did not mean that she would not do anything.
Huo Yuhao definitely has no place for Xu Tianzhen in his heart. If she insists on marrying Huo Yuhao, then Meng Hongchen is determined to be the one to discipline Xu Tianzhen!
"you……"
Xu Tianzhen was furious, but faced with the bloody facts, he couldn't refute it at all. He could only sulk on the spot, watching Meng Hongchen walk in with a victorious attitude. At the same time, Huo Yuhao still protected Wang Qiu'er from meeting Qiu'er.
"I'm so angry! Damn Huo Yuhao, damn Meng Hongchen, if it weren't for Qiu'er, I wouldn't bother to talk to you!"
Xu Tianzhen was helpless and furious on the spot, but she had no choice. She really couldn't let go of Wang Qiuer, so she could only endure the anger, then followed them and walked in.
Huo Yuhao and the others dared to look at Her Highness the Princess's face. Other students from the Sun Moon Team did not dare to let the Princess go behind them. They hurriedly welcomed Xu Tianzhen in front of them. Xu Tianzhen's face looked better now. However, they did not know that she was deflated. Still behind.
While the host on the stage was reciting the opening remarks enthusiastically, Team Sun and Moon had already begun preparations for the game. They were still the team playing the first match today. As long as there was a match between Team Sun and Moon, this position would not be given to others.
As the host finished speaking, today's game was finally about to begin. The powerful showdown between the Sun Moon Team and the Snow Demon Sect was about to take place. Everyone was looking forward to this game and cheered over and over again.
"Okay, I believe everyone has had a hard time waiting. Next, we will invite our referees to enter the field and let the competition officially begin! I would like to invite the dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, the highest institution in the Sun and Moon Empire, and the most advanced soul guide in Mingdu. Mr. Jing Hongchen, the head of the Mingde Hall of the Weapon Research Institute, enters the scene!"
The host called Yitong Jing Hongchen's name and invited him to enter the arena.
"Oh~~"
When they heard that it was the famous Jing Hongchen, everyone in the Sun and Moon audience who had heard of his name cheered. This is really a big shot!
The forces belonging to the Douluo Alliance frowned when they heard that Jing Hongchen was the referee of the game. Did the Sun and Moon Empire get any news? Have you learned about our plan and started taking precautions?
But when I thought about it, it didn't seem like it. Otherwise, why didn't the Sun and Moon Empire just arrest them and let them act?
So now you must not get confused, you must stay steady, stay the same to cope with the changes, and the plan will go on as usual!
All the forces exchanged glances and settled down their thoughts. They stopped thinking about it and wanted to continue the game safely.
"Hello everyone, I am Jing Hongchen. Everyone has been waiting for a long time. Please invite students from both sides to enter."
Jing Hongchen came off the stage amidst the cheers of thousands of people and said in a calm voice.
After hearing his order, Huo Yuhao dodged out of the Sun Moon Team and took the lead in standing on the field. His speed was very fast, but he showed off well in front of Jing Hongchen.
Jing Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao on the stage. His face didn't show anything, but he was quite happy in his heart. Huo Yuhao is really a good guy!
After Huo Yuhao came on the stage, the Snow Demon Sect did not stand still. Soon someone also entered the arena. This person had a resolute face and a steady hand after his appearance. It was obvious at first glance that he was a master, and combined with his identity as the Noumenon Sect Based on his superficial characteristics, Huo Yuhao quickly determined that this person's martial spirit was probably a certain part of his lower body.
"Both parties exchange names and the game is ready to begin."
Jing Hongchen glanced at this person. On the surface, he didn't need to worry much about Huo Yuhao. He said in a calm voice. However, although Jing Hongchen looked relaxed on the surface, he was actually on full alert to prepare for any unexpected situation. .
"Sun Moon Team, Huo Yuhao."
"Snow Demon Sect, Cheng Qiang."
The two were still polite at this time.
"After the briefing, the game begins."
No matter what happens, it can't be stopped now. Jing Hongchen must have announced the start of the game in his heart.
Just as Jing Hongchen's voice fell, Cheng Qiang rushed towards Huo Yuhao in an instant. If it were a normal game, Huo Yuhao would never take Cheng Qiang's attack seriously, but now because he was worried about the assassination. So Huo Yuhao's first response was not to confront him head-on, but to take a roundabout way and deal with him first.
The moment Cheng Qiang acted, not only Huo Yuhao was startled, but even Jing Hongchen almost jumped up. However, he was calmer than Huo Yuhao. With just one glance, he could see that Cheng Qiang's attack did not threaten Huo Yuhao. , just a normal attack.
This kid is really reckless. Others will never adopt the same fighting method as him when meeting Huo Yuhao, because Huo Yuhao has defeated his opponents with only one pair of hands in previous battles. What a powerful pair of ice crystal diamond arms they are. The soul master cannot confront him head-on. He is simply looking for death.
Who knew that Cheng Qiang would do the opposite, which made everyone nervous.
Cheng Qiang himself didn't expect that Huo Yuhao would avoid his attack. He was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted in the next second. He stepped lightly on his feet, and a burst of green and yellow soul power came out. Appeared on the soles of his feet, with just one step, Cheng Qiang's speed soared. If Huo Yuhao's mental detection hadn't been surrounding him, his sudden acceleration might have caused him to throw away Huo Yuhao's gaze. meeting.
