Douluo: Reborn as a Dragon, I am the Lord of Soul Beasts

Chapter 124

The silence in Mingdu lasted until noon, when the people who were overly excited yesterday gradually sobered up. Everything seemed to be back on track.

However, after yesterday's battle, the finals to be held tomorrow seemed to be somewhat overshadowed by the battle between the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy and the Snow Demon Sect. Obviously, the Tang Sect, which was able to defeat the Snow Demon Sect, was already the first in this competition in everyone's mind. However, after the intense consumption of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy team yesterday, how much they could recover tomorrow was the only speculative part.

As time went by and the sun gradually set, the atmosphere in Mingdu seemed to become more heated. Because, in addition to the big competition, another competition that was closely related to many people was about to begin. And it was the final!
The final of the Mingdu Soul Mentor Elite Competition, hosted by the Mingdu underground forces, will begin tonight.

The underground forces will send three soul guides they have selected to participate.

There are many ways to bet on this final. Detailed information about the nine contestants has already been leaked.

Guess the ranking, guess the top three, guess the champion. There are even some strange ranking betting methods.

In the Golden Hall, Shangguan Weier nodded and asked the people below.

"Everything is almost ready!"

Shangguan Wei'er is a well-known leader of the underground forces. She has sharp eyes and scans everyone in the hall. Behind her, there are several capable assistants, all of whom are indispensable strong men in the underground forces.

"Yes, Sister Wei'er," an assistant responded respectfully, "All the contestant information has been made public, and the betting system is now online. All major underground organizations are actively participating in betting, and the flow of funds is very active."

Shangguan Weier nodded and looked at the situation with satisfaction. She knew that this final was not only a contest of strength, but also a contest of wisdom and strategy. The introduction of the betting system made the game more complicated and exciting.

"Very good," Shangguan Weier said, "Make sure every detail is flawless. Especially regarding safety, we can't let any accidents affect the progress of the game."

Another assistant continued, "Sister Wei'er, we have strengthened security measures. All contestants are under our strict monitoring. Anyone who tries to interfere with the competition will be stopped immediately."

Shangguan Weier nodded with satisfaction. "Very good. This match is very important to us. We cannot afford any mistakes."

"Mr. Ye, I'm sorry to bother you this time." Shangguan Wei'er bowed respectfully to an old man.

Ye Yulin had his hands behind his back, his old face was very stern. He was not polite even to the royal family of the empire, let alone the presidents of these so-called underground forces. If it wasn't for Ying Qian's face, Ye Yulin would not have come to such a smoky and chaotic place.

Shangguan Weier didn't care about Ye Yulin's attitude. She turned and looked at the big screen, which showed the detailed information of the nine contestants. They came from various underground forces and were all top soul mentors who had been strictly selected.

"Next, please welcome the nine contestants who will be participating in the final of the Mingdu Soul Guide Elite Competition. Our precision timing soul guides are ready. In the first stage of today's competition, you will have three hours to make a soul guide. The entire production process will be carried out under the supervision of our seven referees. All attempts to break the rules and undermine fairness will be immediately expelled from the competition. Please proceed with caution. Now, please allow our chief referee, Starry Sky Douluo, His Majesty Ye Yulin to speak." The host's expression became serious, and he stepped aside and made a gesture of invitation.

At this moment, his cold gaze swept across the faces of the nine contestants, and a faint aura of oppression swept across the entire venue.

Ye Yulin's name naturally resounded throughout the entire Golden Hall. Although Jing Hongchen was also a ninth-level soul mentor, his research direction and achievements were different. Ye Yulin was able to rank among the top three ninth-level soul mentors in the Sun Moon Empire. In terms of strength, he was better than Jing Hongchen, and he was also known as the master of the starry sky.

"You will have three hours to make soul guides. Each person can only make one soul guide. You can use any material, but you must not use any semi-finished products that have been made in advance. Once discovered, you will be eliminated immediately. At the same time, I must remind you that after three hours, you will not have time to rest and will directly undergo a skill assessment. The last place will be eliminated, and your ranking will also be related to your subsequent quarterfinal match. Therefore, when making soul guides, you must retain a certain amount of energy to avoid overdrawing your energy and being unable to cope with the subsequent skill assessment. The skill assessment is very difficult."

After hearing what Star Douluo Ye Yulin said, the nine contestants were secretly shocked. Even this ninth-level soul instructor said that the skill assessment was difficult, so one can imagine how difficult it was.

Huo Yuhao was also secretly awed in his heart, his eyes slightly closed, his hands placed on the table, waiting quietly.

"Timer starts! Soundproof shield, up."

With Ye Yulin's loud shout, a layer of light white light rose from around the competition stage. The soft white light soon gathered in the air to form a dome, covering the entire competition stage. The noise from the outside world was completely isolated. Starry Sky Douluo Ye Yulin also sat back in his seat, looking at the participating soul mentors who began to take action with a burning gaze.

The border of the Xingluo Empire.

Xu Jiujiu, Vina and their troops are ready. They know that this battle will determine their future fate.

At the border of the Xingluo Empire, the morning light was just breaking, and the sun was shining on the vast battlefield. The golden light was reflected on the army ready to go, shining with a solemn and magnificent atmosphere.

Xu Jiujiu stood on the high platform, wearing silver armor, with a cold and determined face. Vina beside her was also wearing armor, with a resolute light flashing in her eyes. Behind the two princesses were the elite troops of the Xingluo Empire, lined up in an orderly manner, like an iron wall.

The First Legion: Dragonscale Legion

The Dragon Scale Legion is the ace legion of the Xingluo Empire, composed of 300,000 elite warriors, well-equipped and well-trained. Each soldier is wearing heavy armor like dragon scales, holding sharp spears and giant shields. Their armor flashes coldly in the sun, like sleeping dragons that are about to wake up and show their powerful strength.

The commander of the Dragon Scale Corps was Huo Zhenting, a famous general of the Xing Luo Empire. He was eight feet tall, with a sturdy physique, holding a huge battle axe, standing in front of the legion, like an unshakable mountain. His eyes were firm, scanning every soldier, inspiring their fighting spirit.

Second Legion: Wind Shadow Legion

The Wind Shadow Corps is the light cavalry corps of the Xing Luo Empire, consisting of 200,000 cavalrymen, who are good at rapid raids and flexible maneuvers. They ride tall war horses, wear light armor, hold longbows and short swords, and are ready to go. Each war horse is carefully selected and trained, running like the wind, and extremely fast.

The commander of the Wind Shadow Corps is General Randy of the Xing Luo Empire. He is tall and straight, riding on a tall white warhorse, holding a long spear, with sharp eyes. His light cavalry are like the wind, ready to attack at any time and give the enemy a fatal blow.

The Third Legion: Fire Dragon Legion

The Flame Dragon Legion is the smallest legion in the Xingluo Empire, with only a few thousand people, but its members are all composed of soul masters above level 30. They are the firepower support on the battlefield and can cast devastating magic. They wear red robes, hold soul guides, stand at the rear of the army, and are ready to release their powerful soul skills at any time.

The commander of the Flame Dragon Legion is Lisa, one of the Titled Douluo of the Star Luo Empire. She is beautiful and calm, holding a ruby-inlaid staff and standing in front of the army.

"Let's go!" With a command from Xu Jiujiu, the three armies began to advance slowly. The Dragon Scale Army was in front, the Wind Shadow Army was on both sides, and the Flame Dragon Army was in the back, forming a perfect formation.

Hundreds of thousands of troops marched at the same time, their uniform footsteps were as thunderous as thunder, the battle flags fluttered in the wind, and the sky was filled with flying pigeons, reporting the battle situation ahead. The ground was shaking under their feet, and the air was filled with tension and excitement. Every soldier's eyes were filled with the belief that they must win, they knew that this battle would determine their future fate.

Xu Jiujiu and Vina stood on the high platform, watching their army advance. Their eyes were full of determination and resolve. The three armies of the Xingluo Empire, with an army of hundreds of thousands of people, were like a galloping dragon, advancing towards the enemy.

This is a battle of life and death, a war that determines fate. The army of the Xingluo Empire, under the leadership of Xu Jiujiu and Vina, stepped onto the battlefield with great courage and determination. They will defend the glory and future of the country with their blood and lives.

The Xing Luo Empire's army had just begun to advance when the news reached Ying Qian's ears.

"So soon? I thought they could hold their temper." Ying Qian sneered, his eyes revealing a bit of disdain and coldness. He knew that this war would be a key step in the rise of the Sun Moon Empire, and there could be no mistakes.

He stood in the center of the command hall. Soul guide communicators were embedded on the walls around him, connecting to the headquarters of various fronts. Several capable subordinates lined up beside him, waiting for his orders.

"Wang Yiheng." Ying Qian's voice was cold and firm.

Yellow Ox Douluo Wang Yiheng stepped forward and bowed slightly, "Yes, Your Highness."

"You lead the evil army soul guide group to garrison in the north. Your mission is to defend against the enemy's main attack direction. The Fiery Sky Net is an attack and defense soul guide. You must make good use of its protective function."

Wang Yiheng frowned slightly, "Your Highness, the terrain in the north is complex. If the enemy attacks in a dispersed manner, our defense line may be breached."

Ying Qian sneered, "Don't worry, the enemy dare not disperse its forces. You just need to ensure that the main attack direction is not breached, and you can request support from mobile forces if necessary."

Yellow Bull Douluo Wang Yiheng nodded and said, "I understand, Your Highness. I will do my best to defend."

"Luanfeng." Ying Qian turned to another Douluo.

Fire Phoenix Douluo Luanfeng stepped forward, "Yes, Your Highness."

"You will lead the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Group to garrison the south. The Fire Phoenix Sword's ultimate fire will be our trump card. Make sure to make good use of your firepower advantage to curb the enemy's attack."

Luanfeng asked with a hint of worry: "Your Highness, the enemy's strength in the south cannot be underestimated. Do we need reinforcements?"

Ying Qian's eyes were firm. "Your mission is to block and consume the enemy's forces. You can request support from mobile forces when necessary, but you still have to rely mainly on your firepower advantage."

Luanfeng nodded, "Understood, Your Highness. We will definitely do our best."

Silver Hammer Douluo goes to Xuancheng "Go to Xuancheng." Ying Qian continued to give orders.

Silver Hammer Douluo Xia Xuancheng stepped forward, "Yes, Your Highness."

"You will lead the Evil Lord Soul Instructor Group to guard the eastern front. As a level 93 Titled Douluo, you will be our important pillar. Your mission is to ensure that the eastern front is not breached."

Xia Xuancheng frowned, "Your Highness, the enemy forces on the eastern front are huge, do we need to strengthen our defenses?"

Ying Qian shook his head. "The defenses on the eastern front are sufficient. You just need to make sure the enemy can't break through."

Xia Xuancheng took a deep breath, "Understood, Your Highness. I will do my best."

"Xu Tianyuan." Ying Qian continued to order.

Huang Long Douluo Xu Tianyuan stepped forward and said, "Yes, Your Highness."

"You lead the Yellow Dragon Soul Guide Corps to guard the western front. Your mission is to defend and counterattack the enemy's attack. Use the advantages of the Yellow Dragon Soul Guide to block the enemy's offensive."

Xu Tianyuan nodded, "Understood, Your Highness. I will do my best."

"Liao Mengkai." Ying Qian finally turned to the High God Douluo Liao Mengkai.

High God Douluo Liao Mengkai stepped forward and said, "Yes, Your Highness."

"You will lead the Peng Guiding Soul Instructor Group as a mobile force to support various fronts at any time. Your mission is to be flexible and maneuverable to ensure that our defense line is not breached."

Liao Mengkai smiled, "Don't worry, Your Highness. We will definitely respond flexibly to ensure the safety of all fronts."

Ying Qian glanced at everyone, "Everyone, this battle concerns the future of the Sun Moon Empire. We must go all out. No room for error!"

All the generals responded in unison: "Yes, Your Highness!"

Ying Qian nodded, "Let's go, defend the empire, win this war, and let this continent see who is the real ruler!"

Ying Qian's men followed the order and returned to their own positions to start intensive preparations. The Evil Army Soul Mentor Group in the north, the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Group in the south, the Evil King Soul Mentor Group in the east, the Yellow Dragon Soul Mentor Group in the west, and the mobile Peng Soul Mentor Group, the entire Sun and Moon Empire's defense line was like an invisible iron wall, firmly blocking the Xingluo Empire's attack.

Although the Xing Luo Empire's army is large in number and powerful in momentum, it remains unknown whether they can break through Ying Qian's carefully arranged defense line.

Ying Qian stared coldly into the distance, and swore in his heart: "This time, I will let the entire continent see the power of the Sun-Moon Empire. Any enemy will be crushed on this battlefield."
