Chapter 180

The first round of the competition basically had no suspense; promising colleges basically would not encounter any accidents in this round.

Like Shrek Academy and New God Wind Academy, the opponents they faced were all weaklings, easily dealt with; Tang San didn't even need to use his Clear Sky Hammer.

Seven Treasure Academy was no exception; Du Gu Yan didn't even take the field, choosing to continue hiding.

In the second round, the three seeded teams had no byes, so they all took the field.

It is worth mentioning that the opponents of Spirit Hall Academy and Xingluo Royal Academy were not strong, so the three Soul King-level golden generation of Spirit Hall Academy did not take the field, and the captain Davis and vice-captain Zhu Biyun of Xingluo Royal Academy also won without taking the field.

However, the Royal Battle Team had no substitutes, so Gu Xuan also had to take the field.

However, after Gu Xuan took the field, he didn't even release his martial soul, just casually standing beside Ye Lingling, and the two were even whispering.

Their opponents were only three Soul Ancestors, a team from the Xingluo Empire division; to them, their strength was not strong.

Seeing that Gu Xuan and Ye Lingling hadn't even released their martial souls, the referees and spectators instantly felt the two were a bit too arrogant.

But soon they stopped speaking.

Because the remaining five members of the Royal Battle Team were too strong.

The vice-captain Yu Tianheng's martial soul is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, which is called the number one beast martial soul under heaven.

What's more, nobody expected that Yu Tianheng was actually a fifty-first-rank Soul King powerhouse!

The remaining four team members—Shi Mo, Shi Mo, Ao Si Luo, and Yu Feng—had soul power levels reaching forty-nine and forty-eight respectively.

When the five of them released their martial souls and announced their soul power levels, everyone understood why the team captain Gu Xuan didn't even need to use his martial soul.

One Soul King leading four high-rank Soul Ancestors against three low-rank Soul Ancestors plus four Soul Elders—this has no suspense at all, right?

What's more shocking is the soul power levels of Royal Battle Team captain Gu Xuan and Ye Lingling.

Because although they didn't release their martial souls, their soul power levels were still announced by the referee, since each participating member has a strength introduction.

As the captain of the Royal Battle Team, Gu Xuan's strength is undoubtedly beyond question, but nobody expected his soul power level to reach as high as fifty-six!

This damn competition is for young people! Are you really a young person at fifty-six?

Moreover, not only Gu Xuan, but the soul power of Ye Lingling, a support-system Soul Master, also reaches fifty-three!

One team with four high-rank Soul Ancestors and three Soul Kings? Even the Spirit Hall team isn't that terrifying, right?

In the first round, the three Soul Kings of Spirit Hall didn't take the field, so the exposed strength was only seven Soul Ancestors, which already counts as top-tier strength.

Now seeing the strength of the Royal Battle Team, everyone's jaws dropped.

The teacher of Spirit Hall Academy on the presidential stage frowned upon seeing this, after all their trump cards were only two fifty-twos and one fifty-one.

Now the Royal Battle Team not only has three Soul Kings, but two of them have soul power reaching the terrifying fifty-six and fifty-three!

Are there so many geniuses nowadays?

Moreover, today the three golden-generation Soul Kings of Spirit Hall didn't show up, because Hu Liena and Xie Yue went to practice martial soul fusion technique.

After all, they also knew the inside information, after all Salas has been monitoring the competition in Tian Dou City.

Tang San, the possessor of a twin martial soul, his Clear Sky Hammer second martial soul still has a three-purple-one-black soul ring configuration, and the data of his soul power reaching forty-nine is still lying in his office.

Also, the current New God Wind Academy and the Seven Treasure Academy from the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect are potential opponents of the Spirit Hall team.

However, looking at it now, Spirit Hall's biggest opponent should be this Royal Battle Team.

That Spirit Hall Academy teacher didn't even watch the match, after all a team like this has basically no suspense.

He now needs to inform those three golden-generation members of Spirit Hall, telling them this news shocking enough to astonish them!

At this moment, as the crown prince of the Tian Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe's eyes flickered slightly; looking at the high-spirited Royal Battle Team, he felt a hint of hesitation in his heart.

Although she already had this idea before coming, she still hasn't fully confirmed it now.

"Fifty-sixth rank, little Xuan, you've hidden this long—I still don't know your true strength! I hope you can show something special." Xue Qinghe murmured softly in his heart.

At the referee's command, the Royal Battle Team won in less than ten seconds, with Gu Xuan and Ye Lingling seeming to have just gone up and struck a pose.

After the referee announced the match result, Gu Xuan took Ye Lingling's jade hand and left the field elegantly.

Yu Tianheng and his five companions also experienced the thrill of being noticed after this.

The competition has been going on for over two months, and they finally made their debut.

Especially Ao Si Luo and Yu Feng, who were currently exchanging contact info with pretty girls while eating bao.

However, after being glared at by Gu Xuan, they immediately threw away the contact info they had just exchanged, which wasn't even warm yet, because they didn't want Gu Xuan to keep an eye on them; after all, over these two months Gu Xuan hasn't spared them from training.

Don't look at them being in the spotlight now, but during training, even with Yu Tianheng this Soul King added, those five never once managed to force Gu Xuan to unleash his martial soul.

Gu Xuan merely relied on the Sword Dragon Eight Wings and Dark Gold Terror Claw to firmly control those five.

And precisely because of that, they all, including Yu Tianheng, admired Gu Xuan wholeheartedly.

Putting it this way, Gu Xuan telling them to go east, they'd absolutely not go west; telling them to chase chickens, they'd absolutely not dare to beat dogs.

Tang San and Feng Xiao Tian were completely dumbfounded after seeing Gu Xuan's rank.

I know you're strong, but there's no need to be this strong, right?

Moreover, are you serious about your Royal Battle Team having three Soul Kings and five high-rank Soul Ancestors?

Originally, both of them only regarded Gu Xuan as an opponent, and the other members of the Royal Battle Team weren't taken seriously; moreover, the finals are also a team competition, and they didn't think Gu Xuan leading a bunch of weaklings could beat them, so they've always only considered Spirit Hall Academy and Seven Treasure Academy as potential opponents.

And now it seems… not only is Gu Xuan a freak, the whole Royal Battle Team are monsters! Damn Spirit Hall team? This Royal Battle Team is truly the dark horse, right?

No! This isn't a dark horse! This damn thing is the final boss in a game clear!

Probably the Spirit Hall Academy team and the Seven Treasure Academy team aren't enough to match up against the Royal Battle Team, right?

For the first time, Tang San and Feng Xiao Tian felt a sense of helplessness arise, but they quickly steadied themselves; since hopes for first place aren't high, they'll fight for second.

Watching Gu Xuan leading Ye Lingling away, the two felt their hearts filled with ambition.

Unlike those people's fervor, at this moment Du Gu Yan and Ning Rongrong's pretty faces turned grim—damn, did Ye Lingling just debut alongside Gu Xuan like that?

What about them? They're clearly both fiancées—why is Ye Lingling's treatment different!

If Ye Lingling were here, she'd definitely say something like 'those near the water get the moon first'…

At this moment, Du Gu Yan's resolve strengthened further: after knocking Ye Lingling unconscious, she would enjoy Gu Xuan all to herself.

Sour ah, I can't even enjoy my own man, and I got overtaken by a good sister later—how could I not feel sour…
