Douluo: Make a gun first

Chapter 197 Qualifying ()
Outside the Grand Parade Ground, tens of thousands of Royal Knights surrounded the entire ground with shining helmets and armor.

The soldiers of the Royal Knights in the front row were standing on the ground, while those in the back row were sitting on the backs of their mounts, forming a huge circle.

Such a tight defense can be said to be watertight.

Of course, there is another purpose for doing this, which is to let these elite warriors see the strength of the new generation of young soul masters in order to inspire their fighting spirit.

Between the large circle formed by the knights and the competition venue, all fifteen participating teams had arrived, even the teams that had a bye today. Even if they didn't have to compete, they could take the opportunity to observe the strength of their opponents.

The rules of the competition are simple. Each team sends seven players to participate, and each player must fight until they are defeated. If the winner wins, they will face the next opponent, until all seven players on one side are defeated.

The draw was completed last night, and Shrek Academy did not get a bye in the first round.

Their opponent is a high-level soul master academy from the Kingdom of Silves, and they are scheduled to play the third of the seven games today.

The teams from different divisions that passed the preliminaries gathered together, and everyone from Shrek Academy naturally saw their old acquaintances.

For example, the people from the Monster Academy who came out of the Barak Kingdom with them.

Flanders stared intently at the pretty figure in front of Thunder Academy. There was no doubt that it was Liu Erlong whom he had been thinking about.

Dugu Yan also found Yu Tianheng in the Thunder Academy team.

Of course, when everyone from Shrek Academy saw them, they naturally also saw everyone from Shrek Academy.

But due to the order before the competition, they just smiled at each other and nodded.

At this time, Emperor Xue Ye stood up from the VIP seat and used his soul guide to make his voice heard throughout the entire stadium.

"The qualifying round officially begins today. In the next fourteen days, I hope that the teams from each academy will fully demonstrate their strengths and show the demeanor that a soul master should have."

As soon as his voice fell, shouts like a landslide and tsunami sounded in unison, "Long live, long live, long live."

The Royal Knights raised their lances high, and the clanging sound of their armors and their loud shouts immediately startled the participating soul masters.

There were more than ten thousand people, and the crowd was deep and vast, not to mention that these were elite fighters who had experienced hundreds of battles and were full of murderous intent.

In front of this kind of war weapon that kills people indiscriminately, those young soul masters who have not yet stepped out of school are inherently weaker than before, even though they are all elite soul masters with extraordinary abilities.

With elite soldiers and powerful generals, the style of a great country is undoubtedly demonstrated.

Soon, the first game began. The first to appear was the Blazing Academy among the Five Elements Academy. Their opponent was a kingdom team called Fabia Academy.

Seeing that it was Chihuo Academy, one of the five element academies, that appeared, Shen Feng and others came over with great interest.

Yesterday they had discussed the combat effectiveness of the Five Elements Academy. Now that the first match was against Blazing Academy, it was a perfect opportunity to observe.

However, at this time, Flanders coughed lightly and said, "Xiao Feng, you arrange the order of appearances in the next game. I still have something to do."

Shen Feng was slightly stunned, and looked in the direction of Thunder Academy. He suddenly found that Liu Erlong had also left the team, and immediately shook his head helplessly.

"Okay, okay, Dean, go do what you want. I'll just take care of the rest."

Flanders smiled awkwardly, "Thank you for your hard work."

Looking at Flanders's hurriedly leaving back, Shen Feng shrugged helplessly, "Everyone, the third game is ours."

"Now that the dean has left, let's discuss the next order of appearance."

Dugu Yan weakly raised her hand and said, "Well, I have something to do too." Shen Feng was speechless for a while, and glanced in the direction of Thunder Academy again, and found that there was one less person in their team again.

"Well, is this a game of exchanging pieces? Team leader versus team leader, captain versus captain?"

Duguyan chuckled and said, "Xiaofeng, you also know that I haven't seen Tianheng for a long time."

"I'll just go talk to him and come back after I've talked."

Shen Feng waved his hand: "Forget it, forget it. What's the point of being here if your heart is not in it? You will most likely not be needed in today's game. I'll give you a day off and have fun."

"Thank you Xiaofeng, bye everyone!" Before she finished her words, Dugu Yan had disappeared in front of everyone.

Shen Feng curled his lips and glanced at the remaining people.

"The next opponent is not that strong, and his maximum combat power will not exceed that of a Soul King. Who of you wants to go up and train?"

That's right, it's experience. For the Shrek team, at this stage, apart from the Five Elements Academy, which can make them a little more serious, encountering other academies is just pure experience.

As soon as Ning Rongrong raised her hand, Shen Feng interrupted her and said, "Forget it, no need to bother. Let me decide."

"Sister Yanyan has left, and I will most likely not play. Lingling, you don't have to play this time."

"Xiaotian, you go first, Xiangxiang goes second, Rongrong goes third, Tongge goes fourth, Zhuqing goes fifth, Hongjun goes sixth, and Xiaoao goes last."

"Everyone, do you have any objections?"

Ning Rongrong still raised her hand and said, "I want to be the first to go on stage. The auxiliary spirit master will beat the combat spirit master. I am excited just thinking about it."

"And I've already told my dad that I'm going to give him a surprise during the qualifying round."

Shen Feng nodded indifferently: "Okay, then you go first, and the others will follow in turn."

The game proceeds very quickly. Once there is a gap in strength between soul masters, the outcome is often a matter of seconds. Whoever has stronger soul skills and a higher level of soul power can easily defeat the opponent.

After all, there are very few soul masters who possess soul bones, self-created soul skills and other means.

Besides, no matter how much Blazing Academy is considered a college that can be compared with Shrek Academy, it is just a piece of cake for it to crush an advanced soul master academy from the kingdom.

As expected, Blazing Academy only sent out three people and directly wiped out the other side without even showing their core strength.

The second match was a battle between two high schools in the two kingdoms. It was a battle between two weak teams, and there was basically nothing outstanding. Not worth mentioning.

Soon, it was Shrek Academy's turn to appear.

Looking at the somewhat nervous Ning Rongrong, Shen Feng smiled slightly, palm facing down, and stretched out his right hand.

"Come on everyone. Our 'little princess' seems to need a little encouragement."

Everyone understood immediately, and then Oscar, Ye Lingling, Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Niu Tong, Bai Chenxiang, and Yang Po, a group of eight people, put their hands on top of Shen Feng's hand.

"come on, come on, come on!!"

After shouting three times of encouragement from everyone's confident eyes, Ning Rongrong walked slowly and confidently into the competition venue.
