Chapter 77: First Hearing of the Royal Battle Team

The staff's expression had already changed slightly.

The Black Robes on the Slake members were too distinctive.

He spotted them early among the crowd registering.

"Please wait a moment!" He glanced at the number‑one badge in front of Xiao Xian (nickname), hurriedly took the Black Robe Battle Team's badge, left his seat, and ran toward the back of the work area.

"What's wrong with him?" Dai Mubai, wearing the number‑two badge, said in a gruff, muffled tone, sounding a bit displeased.

Without waiting long, the staff hurriedly brought someone to the team‑battle registration desk.

"Sorry for the wait," the staff politely handed the team‑battle badge to Xiao Xian (nickname).

The person he brought behind him was familiar to everyone: Ao Supervisor.

He had acted as the host of their team battles many times.

He was a familiar face.

Ao Supervisor smiled and said to the Shilake Seven, "Hello, nice to see you again. I wonder if we could have a word? It won't take long."

Ao Supervisor seemed to address everyone, but his gaze finally settled on Xiao Xian (nickname).

The mysterious and powerful Heibao Yihau.

The decision‑maker of the Black Robe Battle Team.

He rarely acts, but no matter how his teammates' positions shift, he remains number one.

That's the conclusion drawn by many viewers who closely follow their matches.

Although everyone in the Black Robe Battle Team wears a black robe, their stature, habits, and certain details always set them apart.

Moreover, only Heibao Yihau has never changed his title in the Grand Battle Soul Arena.

Xiao Xian (nickname) calmly looked at Ao Supervisor, already guessing what it was about.

Royal Battle.

The Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon clan…

If the teacher found out, they'd be thrilled, no doubt.

"Let's talk."

Under Ao Supervisor's lead, the Shilake Seven entered a quiet room behind the registration desk.

"Mr. Number One, I'll get straight to the point," Ao Supervisor's expression grew solemn.

"On behalf of the Suo Tuo Great Soul Battle Arena, I hope your Black Robe Battle Team's team battle can take place in the Central Main Battle Soul Arena,"

The others were a bit surprised—Central Main Battle Soul Arena.

Iron Soul Battle, Copper Soul Battle, Silver Soul Battle.

In the Central Main Battle Soul Arena, at least a Silver Soul Battle‑level team is required to qualify.

Their team was newly formed, points unupdated; they are currently at Iron Soul Battle level, two ranks short.

But everyone fell silent, silently looking at Xiao Xian (nickname).

"What's the reason?" Xiao Xian (nickname) said lightly.

Ao Supervisor gave a wry smile and said, "I won't beat around the bush."

"Three days ago, an outsider Soul Master team arrived at our Suo Tuo Great Soul Battle Arena; although they were only Soul Elders, they all obtained Silver Soul Battle badges."

"They seemed to be Soul Masters hired by the great nobles of Suotuo City. For two consecutive days, those nobles placed heavy bets on them, and they unquestionably won, causing heavy losses for our Grand Battle Soul Arena."

"Those nobles must have tasted success; today they placed another heavy bet, fearing another loss…"

Dai Mubai's face broke into a playful smile as he crossed his arms.

The others were similar.

All this fuss is just asking for a favor.

They even thought they had too many wins and were being targeted by the Grand Battle Soul Arena.

"I can decide to agree, but what about extra rewards?" Xiao Xian (nickname) said calmly.

Ao Supervisor originally intended to gush compliments to get them to agree, but didn't expect Heibao Yihau to consent so quickly?

He was instantly pleased and hurriedly said, "By participating in the Main Battle Soul Arena competition, each of your Soul Masters will directly receive five hundred Gold Soul Coins; if you win, we are willing to add another ten thousand Gold Soul Coins!"

The Slake members were somewhat surprised, especially Ma Hongjun, who swallowed secretly; ten thousand Gold Soul Coins—a huge sum!

Xiao Xian (nickname) thought it low but didn't mind; he nodded slightly, "Prepare a set of the opponent's data for us, and have our team's senior call for us."

Fulangde and the Master were already preparing in the Sub Battle Soul Arena's Audience Seats.

"Alright, no problem. I've already prepared the opponent's data; you can study it first! Later I'll lead you into the Central Battle Soul Arena for preparation!" Ao Supervisor said hurriedly, pulling out some documents, then turned and left to report the Black Robe Battle Team's agreement and make further arrangements.

The latest start time for the team Soul Battle is still an hour away, plenty of time to arrange everything, even to secretly set a trap for those arrogant great nobles.

The Suo Tuo Great Soul Battle Arena has had its eyes on their Black Robe for more than a day or two.

Not long after.

Fulangde, Zhao Wuji, the Master, and Ning Rongrong were all summoned.

Ning Rongrong's luck wasn't great; they lost the ranking two days ago.

Xiao Xian (nickname) calmly repeated what Ao Supervisor had said; everyone had already looked at the documents on the table.

Dai Mubai, Tang San and the others felt a chill, their hearts going cold.

Originally they were somewhat unyielding; the confidence from those thirty team battles was unparalleled.

But…

The team called the Royal Battle Team has every member above level thirty‑five.

One at level thirty‑nine, two at level thirty‑eight.

All their Soul Rings are two yellow and one purple.

The strongest Level 39, Yu Tianheng, whose martial soul is the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon!

The world's number‑one Beast Martial Soul!

This is a team far more powerful than the Crazy Battle Squad!

Compared to them, it's far too powerful.

Fulangde saw these documents, immediately frowned, thinking of asking whether Xiao Xian (nickname) was too impulsive to dare accept this.

Although their academy is poor, they wouldn't risk adventure for just this few Gold Soul Coins.

But… the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon.

He stared at the documents on the table, felt something stir in his heart, silently glanced at Xiao Xian (nickname), and said nothing.

Master placed both hands on the table, also staring intently at the documents.

A fierce flame of battle flashed in his eyes!

It was an unprecedented fighting spirit.

A moment later.

Master scanned all the documents, then turned and gave Xiao Xian (nickname) a deep look.

The battle flame vanished from his eyes, and a hard‑to‑describe complex expression appeared on his face.

He kept staring at Xiao Xian (nickname), his face stiff, his voice solemn, saying, "Xiao Xian (nickname), this is a very difficult battle."

Fulangde also sighed, "Indeed, Xiao Xian (nickname), I'm afraid we truly aren't opponents for now."

"It doesn't matter," Xiao Xian (nickname) said calmly, "In this battle, I'll also have Xiao Jue join."

Fulangde and Master forced a bitter smile.

Seeing their expressions, Tang San frowned and said, "Master, Dean, do we really have no hope at all?"

Master glanced at Tang San, "Hope? Of course there is, but …"

The hope lies in Dai Mu Bai and Zhu Zhuqing.

The Nether White Tiger.

But the relationship between the two has always been complicated, each harboring their own barriers.

The Soul Master's heart has conflicts, making it impossible to perform the Martial Soul Fusion Technique.

In this, it seems also tied to his prized disciple Xiao Xian, and although he wishes to, he finds it hard to intervene.

So the mistake has persisted up to today.

A while ago, Fulangde jokingly told him that a little girl had slipped into Xiao Xian's tent at midnight.

Master sighed helplessly and turned back to the documents on the table.
