Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 595 Learn to give up, the one who laughs last is the winner!
As the sun slowly rose on the distant horizon, dozens of participating teams set out from the hotel and headed towards the competition venue.

The second round of the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition has ended, and forty-two teams have entered the third round.

Among them, 32 teams can enter the round-robin tournament. It all depends on their performance in the third round.

If you win, you will inevitably enter the round robin stage. If you lose, you will still have the opportunity to compete for small points. After the first two rounds of competition, some weaker teams have begun to show signs of fatigue even if they qualify. Injuries, attrition, etc. of team members are all big problems for them.

However, these are obviously not a problem for Shrek and Tang Sect.

So far, there are no casualties on the Shrek Academy or Tang Sect side.

Of course, even if there are wounded, with Jiang Ming, an all-round player, as long as they are not killed on the spot, he can use Xiao Ling's life force to restore them directly to full!
After all the participating teams arrived, the draw for the third round began.

then
"Yuhao actually got the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy in the third round!"

You know, among the powerful participating teams now, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy is definitely one of them.

The Tang Sect team also demonstrated extremely strong strength in previous competitions.

Generally speaking, in order to ensure the viewing experience of the competition and the rationality of the rankings, teams of this strength will not meet in the early rounds. This is an unspoken rule of the competition.

but now.
"Sister Le Xuan, how are Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen doing in the academy?"

Jiang Ming turned his head to look at Zhang Lexuan and asked softly.

Over the past two years, Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy have been conducting student exchange activities. Even if these people from Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy were hiding something during the exchange with Shrek, with Zhang Lexuan's eyesight, they should be able to see something.

Zhang Lexuan frowned slightly, thinking back to the performance of Xiao Hongchen and his sister in the inner courtyard, and said softly:
"As for Xiao Meng, she has made great progress in her martial soul. The poison in her martial soul has been strengthened. As for her soul master level, I don't know. I haven't had much contact with Xiao Hongchen, but his cultivation is estimated to be close to the seventh ring. If the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy has put in a lot of effort, he is very likely to have obtained the seventh soul ring!"

Just as Huo Yuhao and his friends did not reveal too many of their cards at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Xiao Hongchen and his sister did not reveal too much of their strength at Shrek Academy.

In normal sparring and fighting, we can still judge their soul power, but we don’t know about their soul guides.

The Xiao Hongchen siblings did not think highly of the soul guidance skills of Shrek Academy, so naturally they would not display too much of their abilities in soul guidance devices.

"Well, that's the seventh ring. As for their soul master abilities, they should both be level seven soul masters now."

Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen are the top talents of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. Generally speaking, the level of soul instructors is one level higher than the level of soul masters.

However, if Xiao Hongchen really broke through to the seventh-ring Soul Saint, he should not be able to reach the eighth-level Soul Instructor just after breaking through the seventh ring.

If he really has the level of an eighth-level soul master at the age of 20, then he is another Ming Jiang.
"So strong? Can the squad leader and his men win?"

Cao Jinxuan asked with some concern.

Jiang Ming looked calm and said, "You underestimate them. If nothing else, judging from their current strength, their overall strength must be stronger than ours. They have four Soul Emperors, but we only have one."

Wang Qiuer behind him heard this and snorted coldly: "I haven't fought them yet. They are just four Soul Emperors. It doesn't mean I can't beat them!"

Wang Qiuer is a proud person. Even though she is the only Soul Emperor in her team, she will never admit defeat.

Jiang Ming raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Zhang Lexuan, chuckled and shook his head.

If they were just four ordinary Soul Emperors, there would be no problem with the strength of Shrek Academy, but the four Soul Emperors over there were not just four simple Soul Emperors.

Beibei, the Soul Emperor brings a Holy Dragon of Light to awaken.

Xu Sanshi, the Soul Emperor brings a Black Tortoise awakening.

He Cai Tou, a Soul Emperor with a seventh-level soul mentor.

Wang Donger, Soul Emperor with martial soul fusion skills.

There is no need to say much about the Soul Kings. Jiang Nannan's combat level is absolutely top-notch at the Soul King stage. Xiao Xiao has twin martial souls, which are equally top-notch.

Huo Yuhao, like Jiang Ming, is a cheating person.

It’s not that Jiang Ming has no confidence in Wang Qiuer and the others, but this lineup seems to be no match for them.

Jiang Ming even dared to assert that even if Xiao Hongchen from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy broke through the seventh ring, they would still lose!
In this competition, if nothing unexpected happens, they should compete with the Holy Spirit Church and the Body Sect for the first place.

As for Shrek, let’s strive to be in the top four, or at worst the top eight, no lower.

Jiang Ming thought secretly in his heart.

Although the situation in this competition is not right, we are representing Shrek after all, and we cannot lose too badly.

"Tang Sect gives up the competition, Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy wins!"

Suddenly, the referee's voice sounded on the stage.

"what?!"

Everyone in Shrek Academy was stunned.

"What are the squad leader and the others doing? Even if they can't win, they shouldn't just give up!"

Zhou Sichen couldn't understand it at all.

Jiang Ming smiled slightly and said, "They are smarter than you."

"what?"

Jiang Ming continued: "Let me ask you, has the Tang Sect qualified now?"

Zhou Sichen nodded: "Yes, it has appeared, but I admit defeat."

Jiang Ming said nonchalantly: "What's wrong with giving up? Didn't you see that Tangmen has almost no substitutes? In this case, if you want to go further, you must avoid fighting with others in the early stage as much as possible.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy was not weak, at least at the level of the top eight. There was no point in fighting them to the death in advance. If they won, those who were supposed to advance would still advance. If they lost, both sides would have enough points and would not be eliminated.

So at this time, giving up is the best choice. If you only fight for a moment, it will be difficult to make it to the end. "

Jiang Ming was actually very satisfied with the Tang Clan's plan.

This is undoubtedly the wisest choice.

Of course, if they want to fight, they can actually fight. Even if they get hurt, he will be there to protect them and heal them no matter how serious their injuries are.

But if they really had to fight at this time, regardless of winning or losing, the strength of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy would inevitably expose some of the Tang Sect's trump cards.

Not worth it.

"I have to remind you that if it does not affect the final result, do not fight for a temporary win or loss. The one who laughs last is the real winner!"

Jiang Ming said quite seriously.

Everyone in Shrek Academy nodded. A look of relief appeared on Mu Lao's young and handsome face. Whether it was Jiang Ming or Yu Hao, they had grown a lot!
There will be no problem leaving the future of Shrek Academy to them!

However, he also needs to work hard to recover his peak strength. Xiaoyao and Xishui...
Mr. Mu sighed slightly in his heart.

The two former best friends are now on the side of the evil soul master.
The third round of the knockout round of the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition was tragic, which exceeded many people's expectations.

In order to gain a place in the round-robin tournament, many matches were fought fiercely.

After one round, five people were killed and more than twenty people were seriously injured. On average, there were casualties in every battle.

For this reason, many teams also raised objections to the organizing committee of the competition and expressed strong doubts about the referee's ability to control the game.

Some people even applied to transfer Mingjiang back. At least when he was the referee, there were no deaths, and he seemed very responsible.

The organizing committee of the competition also considered it, but Jing Hongchen rejected it.

The next matches will inevitably involve those between Shrek Academy and Tang Sect. If those sinister guys over there anger Mingjiang again, things will only become more troublesome.

Moreover, Mingjiang himself didn't want to be a referee anymore. Being a referee was not as fun as joining the underground forces to show off and make money!
The Sun Moon Empire officials were also troubled by this, so they had no choice but to issue an announcement, promising that in the following games, the referee would control the pace of the game as much as possible to reduce casualties.

Although the Tang Sect admitted defeat in this round, thanks to the feat of Huo Yuhao getting full marks in the first round against seven opponents alone, and the foundation laid in the second round, they successfully advanced with the advantage of small points, but their ranking was relatively low.

After the third round of competition, they needed to rest for a day before the round-robin draw ceremony could be held. This day was also the day when the Mingdu Soul Mentor Elite Competition in the underground world officially started.

On days without competitions, most of the teams that advance to the next stage are reviewing their games, discussing tactics and striving to gain a greater advantage in the round-robin tournament.

But there are some people who are not idle.

Huo Yuhao and Cai Tou went to Xishui League to participate in the official competition of the Mingdu Soul Mentor Elite Competition.

Ming Jiang also appeared at the competition venue of Aodu Chamber of Commerce as promised, while Jiang Ming went alone to investigate the situation near Mingdu.

Elder Xuan and Elder Song have investigated it, but with his ability, he may not be able to see more information.

After instructing Wang Qiuer and others to formulate their own tactics, Zhang Lexuan left the hotel and went to a place in Mingdu.

She supported several caravans in Mingdu a few years ago and secretly engaged in the purchase of rare metals.

Previously, rare metals from Mingdu and other places in the Sun-Moon Empire were delivered to Shrek City through caravans.

But now that she is in Mingdu, she can just come directly.

She could also check the accounts in Mingdu to see what the situation is like there.

In addition to them, the participating teams from the Xingluo Empire, Tianhun Empire, and Douling Empire were also doing something in secret.

After learning that Mingdu was surrounded, they had to find a safe way to evacuate Mingdu after the game.

At Odu Hotel, when Mingjiang came here wearing a mask, the middle-aged man from before was already waiting at the door.

Next to the middle-aged man was a tall man wearing a black gown.

"Hello, I am the elder of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce. You can call me Kano."

Kano took a few steps forward and saluted Mingjiang respectfully, and the middle-aged man behind him immediately followed.

Ming Jiang nodded slightly, and there was no change in the person who was receiving him.

Anyway, we are here to have fun.

"Lead the way."

Ming Jiang maintained a cool demeanor. Oh, his name here was A Shuai.

Kano took A Shuai to a large lounge next to the Golden Hall on the underground floor, asked his men to serve various fruits and drinks, and then took out a document and handed it to A Shuai.

"This is."

Kano said: "Here are some of the rules and rewards for the competition, as well as the events of the competition."

A Shuai frowned slightly and threw the document on the coffee table.

"Just explain it directly. I'm too lazy to read it."

It was very arrogant, but Kano did not feel resentful at all.

Standing behind him is the ninth-level soul mentor Mingjiang! And behind Mingjiang stands Mingde Hall, or even the Royal Worship Hall!

If he had such a powerful background, he would probably be even crazier than him!
A few minutes later, Kano explained some of the rules and rewards of the competition, as well as the betting situation.

When he heard that if he bet directly on the number of people who would eventually qualify, he would receive a reward in the same multiple as that number, he was really tempted.

If this bet wins, it can be said to be a big profit!

But unfortunately, the probability of winning this bet is too small.

Moreover, the manipulation involved is too complex, making it almost impossible for people to make money from it.

From Kano, Acai learned that the topic of this competition was the making of baby bottles.

You are required to complete the production of a milk bottle of at least level 3 within three hours. If you fail to complete it, you will be eliminated.

Although it is also a third-level soul guide, the complexity of the manufacturing process of the milk bottle is comparable to that of an ordinary fourth-level soul guide. It is indeed much more difficult than the previous round of qualifying.

But to him, it made no difference.

Under the guidance of Kano's subordinates, A Shuai was invited directly to the central round platform and arranged in a more conspicuous place. The silver-white table top did not reflect any light under the bright light.

In addition to various equipment for making soul guides, a total of ten different metals are presented on the soul guide production table.

Three of them are rare metals suitable for making the core magic array of the milk bottle. Although the other seven are not rare, they are also valuable high-end metals and are sufficient in quantity.

The seven high-end metals all weigh more than three kilograms, and the three rare metals weigh one kilogram each.

I can only say that there are really a lot of rare metals in the Sun-Moon Empire!
"Silence! The competition will officially begin in five minutes. I am the chief referee of this round. Let me repeat the rules of the competition. All guests must not make any noise while the soul masters are making soul guides. Those who violate this rule will be expelled from the competition."

"Attention, soul masters, I will now announce the content of this round of competition.

This round of competition is about making soul guides. You are required to make at least one level three milk bottle. If you can make a level four or higher milk bottle, you will be exempted from the next round and will directly enter the third round of the competition. The competition time is three hours. Those who fail to complete will be eliminated. Please be prepared. "

Kano's voice spread throughout the venue through the voice-transmitting soul guide device, and as he started, all the soul guides began to get busy.

Ah Shuai thought about it and decided that those above level 4 will be exempted from the next round of examination.
Then just make a big one!
