I am in Douluo, but I am the favorite of the soul beast group.

Chapter 227 Promotional Tournament Begins

"Yeah."

Old Jack said quickly.

"Your game is important, go quickly and don't delay your game."

Seeing this, Tang Ya didn't say anything more. Everything that needed to be arranged had been made, and there was nothing to worry about.

When Tang Ya and her companions arrived at the entrance of the academy, everyone else had already arrived. They had no objection to Tang Ya being a little late.

The Royal Hunting Ground was located fifty kilometers outside of Tiandou City. However, for those present, who were at least Soul Masters, they arrived there before noon if they hurried as fast as they could.

Normally, outsiders are not allowed to enter such places. I don’t know why the competition was chosen to be held here.

After showing the certificate, he entered smoothly.

After following a team of knights over a hill, a wide grassland appeared before everyone's eyes, and in the middle of the grassland was a rather large building.

Obviously, this is where the game is taking place.

The knight led a group of people to a tent area on the grassland. Before leaving, the knight gave instructions.

"This is your Shrek area. Without special circumstances, you are not allowed to go to other academy areas. If you cause trouble, you will be disqualified from the competition."

After saying that, the Knight Commander left immediately.

There are not many tents, one is just right for two people.

After the tents were assigned, Xue Qinghe came uninvited. Behind him, there was also a row of guards, obviously to protect his safety.

Liu Erlong couldn't help but ask.

"Your Highness, what's the matter?"

Xue Qinghe looked at Tang Ya, who had just walked out of the tent, with a gentle look on his face, and then said.

"It's okay, I'm just telling you the rules of the game in advance."

Hearing this, Flanders couldn't help but frowned.

"Could it be that the rules of this competition are different from those of the preliminaries?"

Xue Qinghe nodded and then said.

"Yes, this competition is based on a points system and is divided into two stages."

"First, the students are required to face a soul beast alone in the Colosseum. If they defeat a thousand-year-old soul beast, they will get one point. And so on. If it is a five-thousand-year-old soul beast, five points will be added. Each academy can send seven people."

"The second stage is a one-on-one match. You get one point for every win. If you are strong enough, you can even win against 7 opponents at once."

"And the final ranking is based on points to determine whether or not you advance."

Hearing this, Oscar couldn't help but say.

"In other words, this promotion match tests the students' individual abilities, and teamwork is basically useless?"

Xue Qinghe nodded.
"Yes, that's exactly what I mean. The preliminaries test the overall strength of the academy, while the promotion rounds are to select students with strong individual strength from these outstanding students."

"After all, the ultimate goal of the competition is to select talents. For food-type soul masters like you, what matters is their function and level, and basically no testing is needed. For combat students, if we want to fully measure the strength of the soul master, we can only use this method. Although it is not very accurate, it is the best way at present."

After saying that, Xue Qinghe ignored Tang Ya's resistance, rubbed Tang Ya's head directly, and then said.

"Okay, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After Xue Qinghe left, Liu Erlong couldn't help but say.

"This news is indeed important. It will allow us to make some plans in advance. However, Xiaogang, it seems that your plan will not work."

In this situation, wanting to hide one's strength is almost like seeking death. It is obvious that the competition rules are modified specifically to target masters who like to hide their weaknesses.

The master couldn't help but hold his forehead. "Well, it seems that we have to reveal their strength in advance."

The next day, following the notification from the guards, people from various academies began to walk towards the Colosseum.

You can only see the whole picture of the Colosseum when you get closer. The huge Colosseum can accommodate thousands of people. This is just the hunting ground of the empire, built only for the convenience of training royal people.

One can imagine how tyrannical the empire's move was.

There were only fifteen teams participating in the competition. It seemed that ninety percent of the spectators were the dignitaries of Tiandou City.

The ticket sales are probably a considerable amount of income.

After entering the venue, Shui Bing'er, who was walking over from the side, gave Tang Ya an ambiguous look.

Oscar couldn't help but shudder.

"Wow, did you see that? Shui Bing'er seems to be interested in me. Could it be that my spring is coming?"

As for Oscar's narcissism, everyone tacitly kept silent.

Soon, a host stood up and loudly explained the rules of the game.

"Next, each academy please submit your respective appearance lists."

As expected, after the host explained the rules of the game, many teams showed signs of commotion to varying degrees.

However, the quality was still very good and they soon calmed down. Half an hour later, the appearance lists of the fifteen teams were submitted one after another.

The first person to come out quickly jumped into the huge venue below.

I don’t know if it was good luck or bad luck, but the first person who appeared was someone Tang Ya knew.

Meng Yiran, the girl who snatched the soul ring from the third brother, when she jumped into the arena, a bloody smell hit her in the face, which was simply disgusting.

As the host waved his hand, the side covered by the black cloth was lifted up, and the entire wall was filled with soul beast cages. Dozens of soul beasts were locked in them. When the sunlight shone into the cages, they all let out roars.

Hearing it is one thing, but seeing this scene in person, Xiao Wu still couldn't control her heart and couldn't help muttering.

"Why do you treat these soul beasts like this?"

Tang San couldn't help but say.

"Xiao Wu, humans and soul beasts are originally in opposition, you have to look at it more positively."

Tang Ya didn't feel anything. In her opinion, they were just a group of uncivilized soul beasts. Many soul beasts died every day. Could she help them?
As long as the ones she cares about are safe, the rest have nothing to do with her.

Soul masters hunt soul beasts, and soul beasts kill soul masters in return. There is no right or wrong. The one who is wrong is this world.

Meng Yiran, who was sitting in the audience, felt this violent aura and couldn't help but take a few steps back.

Under the referee's gaze, Meng Yiran pointed at the one at the bottom and said.

"I choose the thousand-year-old spider."

The referee nodded and said.

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah." Meng Yiran nodded, a green light flashed, and the spirit snake staff was instantly summoned.

Looking at the green light that was even stronger than two years ago, it seemed that Meng Yiran's poison was much stronger than before.

After receiving Meng Yiran's reply, the staff carefully released the thousand-year-old crypt spider.

As if knowing its fate, the subterranean spider quickly moved around Meng Yiran as soon as it was released.

Ahem, those pictures of Old Jack are too watery, let’s fast forward these ones.
