Douluo's ice devil Yuhao

Chapter 372 Semifinals

The bombing of the arsenal did not cause any waves among the people of Mingdu, at most it was just an after-dinner chat.

The explosion basically did not spread to residential areas, and many people just regretted it after hearing the news.

Interested people will guess whether it involves the grievances between the royal family and nobles. No one realizes that Ming has survived such a terrible crisis invisibly.

There are still several arsenals in Mingdu, but this one was blown up, and the loss is acceptable.

At the same time, Xu Guozhong, the representative of the old nobles, died, and the interest relationship between the royal family underwent another reshuffle.

These are all the upper echelons are busy caring about. At the same time, the atmosphere in Mingdu is getting more and more lively.

The semi-finals of the Continental Young Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition will begin soon, and the Mingdu Soul Master Elite Competition held by the three major underground forces in Mingdu will also hold the three-way final soon.

Almost everyone is discussing the situation of the two major games, overshadowing the explosion that happened only a few days ago.

Semi-final lineup:
In the morning, Dragon and Tiger Gate played against the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.

In the afternoon, the Snow Demon Sect played against the Holy Spirit Sect.

The two matches were full of highlights, and the most popular contestant among them was naturally Huo Yuhao, who had fought so far on behalf of the sect alone.

Not only did he sweep away all opponents with absolute dominance, the secrets of the sect revealed on the field in the quarterfinals even gained the respect of all the audience.

In fact, anyone with a discerning eye can see what kind of existence the Holy Spirit Sect really is. It is a genuine evil soul master sect.How absurd it would be for an evil soul master sect to win the championship.

Opposition to the Holy Spirit Sect is very strong, whether it is from the people or the court, and there are also some outspoken and admonishing ministers who have played to Xu Tianran.

But Xu Tianran, who strongly supported the Holy Spirit Church behind his back, dismissed this at all, and suppressed several of the loudest voices of opposition with bloody means. Since then, no one has dared to speak out.

But justice is in the hearts of the people, and speeches that are suppressed by the government will quietly ferment in places that cannot be heard above.

Maybe it doesn't matter what the common people think, anyway, no matter how much they think, it won't affect the higher-ups.

As the opponent of the Holy Spirit Sect, the Noumenon Sect has unknowingly become the object of most people's support.

The semi-finals of the soul master competition started in such a strange atmosphere.

A huge flow of people rushed to the arena, and the number of people who came to watch the game reached the highest in this competition.A total of 10 people were counted, and as far as the eye could see, they were all piled up heads.

Today's weather is not so good, the clouds are dense, the sun can't be seen, and it seems to rain at any time.

All four teams have entered the arena, but there is no Shrek Academy among them.This is also the first time in ten thousand years that Shrek has missed the semi-finals of the Youth Soul Master Competition.

On the rostrum, Xu Tianran only had Juzi and Guoshi Zhongliwu at hand, and Jing Hongchen was going back to take charge of the repair work of Sun Moon Academy.

Xu Tianran's mood was also a little gloomy like the weather.

He looked in the direction of the rest area.

Mingdu's voice could naturally be heard in his ears. Since the quarter-finals, Huo Yuhao has suddenly gathered a strong reputation among the people, and there are many supporters.

Xu Tianran knew that this was because people did not dare to directly talk about the evil soul masters and the Holy Spirit sect, and instead placed their emotions on the righteous men who crusade against the evil soul masters.

Xu Tianran's gaze was a little cold.

In Mingdu, outsiders with too high a reputation are not allowed to exist.

He asked insincerely: "Juzi, you said this morning, can Team Sun and Moon win?"

Juzi cautiously said: "Team Sun and Moon has Hongchen brothers and sisters who are proud of the heavens, and my concubine is naturally full of confidence in them. It's just..."

She paused, and expressed her scruples for Xu Tianran: "It's just that if we bully the few with the more, I'm afraid that our sun and the moon will be shamed by the whole continent."

"Yeah. This Huo Yuhao is really a very difficult problem." Xu Tianran said indifferently.

Zhongli Wu also said coldly: "Many saints and elders of my holy sect were killed by them. If they were not concerned about the forces behind him, my sect really wanted to get rid of them now and then quickly."

Tangerine's complexion changed slightly, and she persuaded: "National teacher can't."

"If Huo Yuhao dies at this time, I am afraid that the whole Mingdu will guess that he was killed by an evil soul master. Afterwards, the opposition in Mingdu will become stronger and stronger."

"His Highness has withstood a lot of pressure from the government by cooperating with you, and this move will only increase His Highness's troubles."

Her words sound very reasonable, or maybe she wants to take the opportunity to protect Huo Yuhao.

Zhong Liwu chuckled: "Princess Regent, don't worry, my teacher will naturally think of His Highness."

He also looked at the rest area from a distance, and he didn't know what conspiracy was brewing in his heart.

Xu Tianran interrupted softly: "Okay, the game is about to start, let's wait and see."

rest area.

Holy Spirit team, Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng and Fourth Elder Nether Douluo are looking anxious.

Ma Xiaotao asked in a cold tone, but the speed of her speech was a little faster unconsciously: "Has the Holy Son not returned yet?"

"Saint Huofeng, the Holy Son has indeed never returned to the room. I asked the deputy leader, but he is not at the Xishui League. I have searched all over Mingdu, but I have never seen the Holy Son."

The fourth elder was very anxious.

The Holy Son's status in the Holy Spirit Church is even higher than that of the elders, but now the Holy Son has disappeared under his guard. If something happens to the Holy Son, it is a serious crime.

In the past, the Holy Son did his own thing and went out at will, they didn't dare to take care of him, and the Holy Son came back every time, but they didn't expect such a catastrophe to happen now.

At this moment, Ji Li, with rogue eyes, came over and advised, "My lord, there must be something about my lord..."

Before he finished speaking, Ma Xiaotao shot an extremely indifferent look.With the attribute of evil fire, she actually made Ji Li feel as if she was in an ice cave, her body froze, and she collapsed on the ground.

"Useless trash." Ma Xiaotao muttered, and glanced at the Holy Spirit Sect again, "If the Holy Son hasn't returned this afternoon, you can deal with the Noumenon Sect by yourself."

A group of young evil soul masters did not dare to disobey her, so they could only respectfully say: "Yes."

Ma Xiaotao sat down slowly, and said to herself: "It's better to die, and you can feel at ease after death."

In the team of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, Xiao Hongchen was the captain and sat at the head of the team.

He has already made a plan. In this semi-final, he will choose the method of the Tangmen team in the quarterfinals, and use Huo Yuhao in the group arena to determine the outcome.

Spiritual defense soul guide, extremely high-temperature soul guide cannon, invincible shield... All the equipment are targeted soul guides selected based on his understanding of Huo Yuhao's abilities.

Xiao Hongchen is confident that he will defeat Huo Yuhao head-on in the upcoming match.

He looked at the rest area of ​​Longhumen, but couldn't help being taken aback.

There was no sign of Huo Yuhao in the rest area, only two women.

The blue-haired woman whispered a few words to the staff, and after a brief surprise, the staff quickly reported to the referee's seat.

"Where's Huo Yuhao?"

A bad premonition rose in Xiao Hongchen's heart, he clearly saw that the two women left the rest area very quickly.

When the time came, Zheng Zhan shouted loudly as always: "In the first match of the semi-finals, Dragon and Tiger Gate will play against the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy."

The audience was in an uproar, shouting all kinds of Huo Yuhao's support slogans.

This image of a lone hero has deeply gained the favor of many people.

"Huo Yuhao, we must win!"

"Come on!"

I don't know who was the first to shout in the crowd, and immediately more people responded to him.

The cacophony was like constant thunder on a gloomy day.

Xu Tianran's expression became more and more gloomy.

His Royal Highness, Prince Regent and Crown Prince, has never enjoyed such sincere support.

People's officials often knelt down and shouted to him in unison, and the voice was far higher than that at this moment.But insincere words under awe are far less than heartfelt shouts.

However, Zheng Zhan's next sentence disappointed all the audience.

"The leader of the Dragon and Tiger Gate announced that due to the accident of the team members, he would abstain from the competition, so the winner is the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy."

As if throwing a stone into the silence in front of Hu, the auditorium of tens of thousands of people unexpectedly fell silent for a few seconds, and then broke out together.

"How is it possible? Is it a lie?"

"We want to watch the game, the game! Where's Huo Yuhao?"

They didn't expect this situation at all, and they were poured cold water on their faces when they were most excited.

Soon, some audience members exclaimed: "Ah, I see, did you hear what the team leader said?"

"They had an accident, evil soul masters, those evil soul masters must have retaliated!"

One stone stirred up thousands of waves, and this speculation spread among the audience extremely fast.Although the blind masses lack the ability to distinguish true and false rumors, they glared at the most likely culprit with a simple heart.

Naturally, it was the holy spirit team with evil soul masters as members in the rest area.

Bupo Douluo naturally noticed the strange emotions in the audience, and shouted through the voice-transmitting soul guide: "Please keep the order in the scene, the second semi-final will be held in the afternoon."

There are a total of [-] troops around the competition platform to maintain order, and no one has dared to challenge the authority of the army.

Xiao Hongchen stood in the rest area and won the semi-finals before he got on stage.But he didn't feel the joy of winning, but felt absurd and irritated.

Another match that won directly without even having to go to the quarterfinals, as well as the semi-finals, and even the finals did not need to be contested, and the championship was directly given to the Sun and Moon team.

When later generations mentioned Sun and Moon's so-called glory, they just thought that Xiao Hongchen had good luck and was fed a champion by fate.

His pride and efforts are all meaningless.

At first, Xiao Hongchen thought that Huo Yuhao gave in to him and deliberately surrendered directly, and he was still a little sullen in his heart.

What he wanted was to knock Huo Yuhao down in the arena, so he didn't want this kind of handout victory.But Xiao Hongchen couldn't help being stunned when he heard some audiences who were close to each other communicate with each other.

Was Huo Yuhao deliberately retaliated by those evil soul masters?
Xiao Hongchen frowned, and was about to start walking in the direction of the Holy Spirit Sect.

Meng Hongchen hurriedly grabbed him, and stopped him in a low voice: "Brother, grandpa has warned us many times, don't deal with them."

"I don't want to deal with them either." Xiao Hongchen said coldly, shaking off Meng Hongchen's hand.

He came to the Holy Spirit team with a cold expression, and asked in a cold voice, "You guys attacked Huo Yuhao?"

Zhang Peng raised his eyes and recognized Jing Hongchen's grandson, and said flatly: "No, you are suspicious, the leader has ordered, now I will teach..."

Xiao Hongchen still wanted to ask, but Ma Xiaotao, who was under the veil, interrupted indifferently: "So what if you are? So what if you are not?"

"Is it because we helped you solve the opponent in advance, are you here to thank us?"

With her arms crossed, she sat on a chair with her legs crossed, not paying attention to Xiao Hongchen at all.

Xiao Hongchen stared at Ma Xiaotao for a few seconds before turning around and leaving, saying: "It's okay, it's fine, it's fine."

The first semi-final ended in such a dramatic way, even though there was an army to maintain order, there was still a lot of negative emotions echoing in the audience.

On the rostrum, Xu Tianran frowned and looked at Zhongliwu: "National Teacher, did your people do it?"

Zhongli Wu denied, "Your Highness, we have another way to deal with Huo Yuhao, and we won't attack him directly."

"I hope so." Xu Tianran looked around the auditorium from the rostrum, "Mingdu, there can't be outsiders with such a strong appeal."

"If he really died in an accident, the voices of these people may be several times louder."

He sighed indifferently: "Sometimes, the moment a person dies is even more troublesome than when he was alive."

Zhongli Wu said with a smile: "Your Highness, a dead person is a dead person after all. This moment will pass quickly, and there will be no disturbance."

Xu Tianran was taken aback for a moment, and the first smile of the day appeared on the corner of his mouth: "Indeed."

Far away from the auditorium, there are two figures staring at everything here, they are Ice Empress and Snow Empress, and there is a gray figure behind them, Electrolux.

Bingdi asked: "Electrolux, are you sure you really want to do this while Yuhao is unconscious?"

Electrolux chuckled: "I think this will be Yuhao's favorite solution. Haha, this mental suggestion is much easier to use than I imagined."

Bingdi hesitated for a while: "But if you just admit defeat on Yuhao's behalf..."

Xuedi teased and said: "If you want to help Yuhao win so much, then why don't you, Bing'er, come up to save the field?"

The Ice Emperor snorted: "This Emperor doesn't bother to compete with these humans to win or lose."

In the Snow Demon Sect team, Wei Na panicked, "Could it be that Yu Hao was really revenged by those evil soul masters?"

Long Aotian and others quickly cast cold gazes at the Holy Spirit team.

Huo Qiu'er interrupted everyone: "Huo Yuhao is fine, if there is any accident with him, I must be the first to know."

She kept stroking the middle of her forehead with her right hand.

"That's good." Wei Na breathed a sigh of relief, and began to arrange for everyone, "Our opponent this afternoon is the Holy Spirit Sect. They are all evil soul masters. You must pay attention to safety."

The difficulty of evil soul masters is not only that the upgrade speed is far faster than that of their peers, but also that their methods are dark and have no bottom line. Fighting them is often the difference between life and death.

"I'm still the first one."

Huo Qiu'er spoke lightly, and while speaking, she had already carried the Golden Dragon Spear on her right shoulder.

"I have experience dealing with evil soul masters."

"Just be more evil than them."
