Chapter 143: The Spirit Master Tournament Grand Finals Begin, the Wind with Unknown Strength
Seeing Lin Yu and Qian Renxue also present, some in the audience were happy, while others were worried.
At the very least, Tang San's expression was the ugliest: "Damn it! He actually entered the tournament. I cannot use Hidden Weapons in the Spirit Master Tournament; if I encounter the Spirit Hall Team, won't I be bullied by Lin Yu again?"
"The Spirit Master Tournament rules restrict me, I can't win!"
A faint smile also appeared at the corner of Gu Yuena's mouth: "Heh, it's good that he entered as well; I haven't come to this tournament in vain."
She was waiting for Lin Yu to enter.
As the Spirit Hall Team appeared, Bibi Dong, accompanied by Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, also entered to deliver the opening speech: "Congratulations to everyone for fighting your way into the final stage of the tournament."
"I hope that in the upcoming matches, each team will display their style and show their brilliance!"
"And as for the team that ultimately wins the championship of this tournament, I believe everyone already knows the reward is three ten-thousand-year soul bones!"
"They are, respectively, the Wisdom Skull of Spirit Concentration."
"The Blazing Burning Right Arm Bone."
"The Rapid Pursuit Left Leg Bone."
"Whether you can obtain these three soul bones depends on your efforts." Bibi Dong said as she retracted the three soul bones, and finally announced: "Now, I declare, the Spirit Master Tournament Grand Finals officially begin!"
The rules of the Grand Finals include a bye system.
In the first round, the three teams that were given a bye to the Grand Finals—the Spirit Hall Team, Xingluo Team One, and Heaven Dou Team One—will directly advance by bye, without participating in the first round, and will enter the top eighteen of the tournament.
The remaining thirty teams will draw lots for their matchups.
Lin Yu and Qian Renxue intended to stay at the venue to watch the matches and see the level of the teams in the Grand Finals, most importantly the strength of the Wind Water Fire Academy and Gu Yuena.
As the matches began one by one.
The winners advanced, and the losers were eliminated.
The first round of the Grand Finals finally reached the seventh match, with the Wind Water Fire Academy facing off against the Spirit Tool Academy from the Xingluo competition zone.
"It's the Wind Water Fire Academy's turn; I am very curious about how strong this Gu Yuena really is, and whether she is as formidable as you said." Qian Renxue watched Gu Yuena with interest.
However, Gu Yuena did not take the stage at all in this match.
Even Feng Xiaotian, Shui Bing'er, and Huo Wu did not appear.
Of the five core mainstays of the Wind Water Fire Academy, only Huo Wushuang appeared.
"Hiding their strength! It seems we won't have a chance to see Gu Yuena make a move until the top ten." Lin Yu smiled helplessly upon seeing this.
The Spirit Tool Academy's strength in the Xingluo competition zone could only be considered upper-middle, yet they only had one Soul Ancestor powerhouse.
But the Wind Water Fire Academy had a full roster of two Soul Kings, seven Soul Ancestors, and three Soul Elders.
Even with only Huo Wushuang as a core mainstay on the field, they had a lineup of four Soul Ancestors and three Soul Elders, which was enough to crush the Spirit Tool Academy.
At this moment, the simple personal information of the members of both teams had already appeared on the big screen.
Huo Wushuang, martial soul One-Horned Fire Tyrant Dragon, soul power level 44.
"Oh? Level 44 soul power? It seems to be one level higher than in the original story?" Lin Yu pondered.
The battle began quickly.
The Wind Water Fire Academy immediately launched a powerful offensive against the Spirit Tool Academy, with Huo Wushuang taking the lead, his fighting style extremely aggressive and fierce, directly suppressing the opponent's two core mainstays.
From the start of the match, the Spirit Tool Academy was completely suppressed.
"Third Soul Skill, Wrath of the Tyrant Dragon!!"
"Roar!!"
Huo Wushuang activated his self-enhancing buff skill; sharp claws emerged between his hands, his arms swelled, and the dinosaur scales covering them erupted with a golden-red light, both arms burning with scorching flames.
With his state fully unleashed, the opponents were left with no power to defend against Huo Wushuang, who displayed astonishing combat power.
"This Huo Wushuang is actually so much stronger; not only has his ability to control the Fire Element improved greatly, but even his combat ability is extraordinary." Lin Yu was somewhat surprised.
Because Huo Wushuang's growth was unexpectedly rapid, he guessed: "Could it be because of Gu Yuena?"
Huo Wushuang was clearly much fiercer than he was at the same period in the original story.
Before long, Huo Wushuang used his formidable momentum to lead the Wind Water Fire Academy to victory over the Spirit Tool Academy.
"Grand Finals, first round, seventh match, Wind Water Fire Academy wins!"
"Interesting, I'm starting to look forward to the changes in Feng Xiaotian, Shui Bing'er, and Huo Wu." Lin Yu smiled to himself.
He had a premonition that these three—Feng Xiaotian, Shui Bing'er, and Huo Wu—might also be even more powerful than he had anticipated.
Soon, after a series of competitions, the eighteen teams were determined.
A total of 15 teams were directly eliminated.
The vast majority of the teams that entered the top eighteen basically had at least one Soul Ancestor powerhouse holding the line.
And according to the rules of the Grand Finals, in the second stage, the teams that placed first in the qualifying matches of the Heaven Dou competition zone and the Xingluo competition zone would receive a bye in the second round of the Grand Finals, directly advancing to the top ten.
The Wind Water Fire Academy was the first-place team from the Heaven Dou competition zone's qualifying matches, so they would directly advance to the top ten by bye and would not need to play in the second round.
But in the second round, the three teams—the Spirit Hall Team, Heaven Dou Team One, and Xingluo Team One—would finally take the stage.
"Grand Finals, second round, first match!"
"Spirit Hall Team versus Plant Academy!"
"The Wuhun City Team is here! They are about to appear, damn, so exciting! I wonder what level the others in the Spirit Hall Team are, besides Hall Master Lin Yu and Young Master Qian Renxue."
The entire venue instantly boiled over, with everyone looking forward to and focusing on the strength of the Spirit Hall Team.
Lin Yu arranged: "Yan, Zhu Zhuqing, Oscar, Zhang Ping, Sun Chuantao, Li Kai, Xu Yu, you seven go up."
"Yes!"
Lin Yu sent out two mainstays and five substitutes.
Seeing the Spirit Hall Team, where even the lowest level was the peak level 43 Soul Ancestor Zhu Zhuqing, the other teams suddenly felt immense pressure.
"All Soul Ancestors! The Spirit Hall is indeed strong enough!"
"But do they only have one Soul King? Besides Lin Yu and Qian Renxue, the others don't seem that outstanding!"
"Are you stupid! Do you think there are many substitutes among these seven people who appeared? There must be others even stronger than them!"
Zhu Zhuyun of Xingluo Team One, seeing Zhuqing's current strength, felt very displeased: "Zhuqing, my dear sister! I didn't expect that in the few short years since you left the Zhu Family, you have grown to this extent, only 4 levels of soul power behind me."
"Hmph! It really is annoying."
Zhu Zhuyun is a full five years older than Zhuqing, but now the difference in soul power is only 4 levels, which undoubtedly proves that Zhuqing's current potential and talent have already surpassed her older sister.
This made her, as the older sister, very displeased.
But fortunately, Zhuqing has already left the Zhu Family, so no matter how fast she develops, she will no longer pose a threat or influence to her.
The match began quickly.
The Spirit Hall Team, with a formidable momentum, easily thrashed the Plant Academy in less than a minute, taking the first victory.
The combat of Zhuqing and the others was also partially displayed, immediately making the entire audience unable to help but sigh at the power of the Spirit Hall.
