Douluo: Start by taking control of the Holy Spirit Church Saint

Chapter 149 The old emperor is calculating

Xingluo City, as the capital of the Xingluo Empire and the largest city in the empire, has been experiencing urban congestion for several consecutive days. There was even a stampede on the day when it was discovered that the earthquake was caused by the fight between the unknown Extreme Douluo.

This made the current Emperor Xingluo very embarrassed.

The so-called city congestion means that there are crowds of people on any street. The two semi-finals of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition have ended. From the moment the semi-finals ended, queues began to form outside the Xingluo Square. Some people even queued for two days and two nights just to watch a fight.

The purpose is to witness the grand finals of the All Continental High-level Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition. Perhaps, this will be a major event that these bored Xing Luo civilians will talk about with relish in their lifetime.

The most important thing is that although this final will be divided into a team battle, an individual elimination battle, and a two-two-three battle, it will all be completed within one day. What a wonderful spectacle it will be, even if it is a little more difficult, it is worth it.

In order to maintain order in the imperial capital, the Xingluo Empire urgently dispatched 10,000 elite soldiers to the city to maintain order, and all shops in the city extended their business hours. In order to supply the sudden surge in the number of foreign population, various resources had to be allocated from surrounding large cities.

There is no other reason, it’s just because the Xingluo treasury was stolen!
At this time, the face of His Majesty Xingluo Emperor was as black as the bottom of a pot. He also received the news yesterday. If a mouse got into the huge treasury now, it would cry when it came out. The abominable thief even left them the Tang Sect hidden weapon that was famous in the continent ten thousand years ago, which was an iron lump that was useless now.

You have to know that these things were purchased from the black market of the former Tiandou Empire at a high price by a Xingluo Emperor. Even though the God King ten thousand years ago issued an oracle to prohibit the Tang Sect from producing such weapons of mass destruction, he only did it to prove his own purity. After he ascended to the God Realm, who would care about the mortals in the lower world?
But with the changes of the times and the collision of continents, the Sun-Moon Empire brought in advanced soul guides, which directly crushed the Xingluo Army, which was equipped with Tang Sect hidden weapons at the time, and nothing was left. So those iron lumps that were purchased with a large amount of gold soul coins became collectibles gathering dust in the national treasury.

But who wants these things now? Didn't the Tang Sect completely decline because of this?

So Xu Jiawei was very angry about this, extremely angry. He would rather the thief be stupid enough to pack up all these Tang Sect hidden weapons and take them away, rather than leaving them there to be an eyesore!

But such a huge empire would not completely decline just because of the theft in one treasury. As the saying goes, the wool comes from the sheep. The empire was an aristocratic autocracy. If there was less surplus in the treasury, then the money could be recovered from the people.

For a time, the prosperity of Xingluo City had reached an unprecedented level, and the prices of all kinds of goods were raised to unprecedented heights.

There is no doubt that the economic benefits that this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition has brought to the Xingluo Empire are immeasurable. No wonder the major empires competed to host the competition but ultimately had to compromise with each other, with each session being hosted by the country.

As usual, the two teams in the finals are still Shrek Academy and Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, which undoubtedly represent the strength of the two most powerful soul master academies on the continent today. The public's expectations for this final can be imagined.

However, due to the relatively luxurious lineup of Shrek Academy, Shrek Academy has a greater advantage in the odds in the underground black market, with a score of 6 to 4.5, which is higher than the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

However, no one would think that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy is easy to defeat, even the Shrek Academy's own players think so. After all, all the contestants of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy are guys who possess the most advanced soul guides on the continent. No one knows what kind of combat effectiveness they can show in the competition, and whether they have a backup plan.

In the previous matches, they had already demonstrated their tactics more than once. In the final, they would definitely try their best to completely defeat the never-setting Shrek Academy, so it was still unknown who would win.

The weather was not very good that day. It was overcast and there was even a light mist covering Xingluo City. Occasionally, some fine rain fell from the sky, bringing a bit of chill to this magnificent city.

However, no matter how cold it was, it could not dampen the enthusiasm of the people from all over Xingluo City. The finals of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition was about to begin, and a long-awaited peak showdown would take place today.

At this time, the two teams that were about to stage a peak showdown were walking on the way to Xingluo Square. Soldiers stood in rows along the way, blocking the people who were shouting their names. Many people who were unable to buy tickets to enter Xingluo Square because they had no money gathered on both sides of this passage, watching the two teams closely.

Ling Luochen walked in the middle of the Shrek team, occasionally looking up at the sky, with a trace of worry on her pretty face. As the master of the ultimate ice element after evolution, this humid air and the possibility of rain at any time is undoubtedly the most beneficial to her, but can she really go against the agreement and exert her full strength?

Yesterday, Wang Yan's tactical arrangements for the day became meaningless due to the weather this morning. Everyone wasted half a day listening to his nonsense, and they had to make some adjustments to their tactics on the spot.

Everyone from both the Shrek Team and the Sun-Moon Team were a little too nervous about the upcoming finals, but this was completely unavoidable.

Compared to them, the members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy were even more nervous. Because this time, their academy was still facing the complete Shrek Academy. Both sides had one Soul Emperor and several Soul Kings, and their strength was evenly matched.

As proud as Xiao Hongchen was, his facial expression was also very tense at this moment. Occasionally, he glanced at the people from Shrek Academy who were walking with them on the red carpet that was laid out last night, his eyes burning with fighting spirit and desire. Compared with Xiao Hongchen's nervousness and excitement, Meng Hongchen behind him was better. Her infatuated eyes were more focused on Wang Dong. After all, the daughter of Buddha was indeed beautiful. Even if she was dressed as a man, she was still an extremely eye-catching existence.

The 14-year-old Meng Hongchen, who was just beginning to fall in love, could not help but feel a little warm in her heart. She didn't know why, but ever since Wang Dong approached her that day, his shadow had been echoing in her mind. Even Wang Dong himself didn't know that, by accident, he had actually made a simple girl develop a pure and strong liking for him.

The red carpet leads all the way to the seating area and then circles the competition stage. At the top of the city in the distance, His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire had already arrived at the city with all the civil and military officials of the Star Luo Empire. To show respect for the two teams that are about to compete in the finals.

Huo Yuhao was in a very calm mood at this moment. Last night, Jing Hongchen found him alone and talked with him for a long time before leaving.

In today's team battle, the six of them and Orange will not play. As the pride of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, if Huo Yuhao, a foreign aid who originally belonged to Shrek, is dispatched in this final decisive battle, it will be an unfair victory even if they win.

The game is changing rapidly, and he will take part in the subsequent individual elimination matches and 223 matches to prevent the situation from developing in an unfavorable direction.

Huo Yuhao accidentally looked towards the top of the city wall. At first glance, he saw the Emperor of the Xingluo Empire standing in the middle of the city wall with one leg slung over his shoulder like a second-rate person, and the Princess Jiujiu who had recovered on the left side of the Emperor.

Princess Jiujiu was obviously not looking at him, but her gaze was turned to Xie Huanyue beside Huo Yuhao.

And in the next moment, Huo Yuhao's body shook violently, and his originally casual mentality suddenly sank.

He was a middle-aged man, who looked to be in his thirties. He was wearing a golden armor and no helmet, revealing his regular facial features. His eye sockets were deep, and his blue eyes had twin pupils shining. His face looked a little thin, but he had a kind of master-like texture. He was handsome, resolute, tall, and had an iron-blooded temperament. He stood beside the Xingluo Emperor.

Yes, it’s him... No matter which life Huo Yuhao is from, how can he remain calm when seeing this person?
Yes, the Duke of White Tiger who guarded the western border of the Xingluo Empire came back before this final. Not only because this was the final of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition, but also because his eldest son and second son participated in the competition as the regular and pre-qualified players respectively.

Huo Yuhao saw the White Tiger Duke, and naturally, the two brothers Dai Yaoheng and Dai Huabin in the Shrek team also saw it. Excitement ignited in their eyes. Looking at their father on the top of the city wall in the distance, they clenched their fists.

Duke Dai Hao of White Tiger only nodded slightly to them, his eyes showing encouragement, and then he stopped looking at them. But just this one look filled the hearts of the Dai Yaoheng brothers, who had taken their father as their role model since childhood, with a fighting spirit, and the previous nervousness was swept away.

Seeing that players from both teams had already entered the rest area, Emperor Xingluo revealed an inexplicable smile on his face and nodded to Duke Baihu beside him.

"Quiet. The game is about to begin. Your Majesty, please speak." Dai Hao shouted in a deep voice. He did not use the amplifying soul guide, but his voice was spread far away. The sonorous and powerful iron-blooded aura came from the city just like that. It spreads out from the head.

"Kill, kill, kill!" All the soldiers who were maintaining order on the scene raised their weapons and shouted at the same time. Suddenly, the entire Xingluo Square was filled with a murderous atmosphere.

What can be seen is that the eyes of these soldiers are full of fanaticism. At this moment, in their eyes there is only the commander standing on the top of the city.

Duke Zihu's dominance in the army is, to some extent, even greater than that of the emperor!
There was a subtle flash of dissatisfaction in the depths of Emperor Xingluo's eyes, but he still had a smile on his face, and all the people in the audience quieted down under this solemn atmosphere.

Emperor Xingluo smiled and said, "The last time I witnessed the finals of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition in Xingluo City was twenty years ago. At that time, both I and Brother Dai Hao were just two aspiring young people. I didn't expect that twenty years later, I am already the ruler of a country, and Brother Dai Hao has become the first commander of the empire and my right-hand man. Today, we will witness another showdown between the strongest young people on the continent! I am very excited and hope that the players on both sides can present a wonderful game to every spectator. According to convention, the winner of this final will receive three soul bones and a million gold soul coins as rewards. In order to better stimulate the participating members of both sides, I specially selected ten Tang Sect hidden weapons Zhuge Divine Crossbows that were famous on the continent ten thousand years ago from my country's treasure house, instead of the million gold soul coins as prizes!"

Zhuge Divine Crossbow? As a prize? Huo Yuhao's mouth twitched. This old emperor is really good at playing!
Naturally, only Huo Yuhao’s companions knew that the national treasury had been swallowed up. If this were to be made public, they would probably be put on the wanted list of the Star Luo Empire.

"I originally wanted to ask Brother Dai Hao to preside over today's match, but unfortunately one of the main players on the Shrek Academy team is his eldest son. In order to avoid suspicion, the referee of this match will still be Tiansha Douluo. Now, please join me in watching this duel that will definitely go down in history."

As Emperor Xingluo finished speaking, a ray of light flashed across the city in an instant, and the next moment he appeared in the center of the competition stage, none other than Tiansha Douluo Huang Jinxu.

Is His Majesty the Emperor lovable?
