Douluo: Steadily Becoming Stronger in Shrek

Chapter 155 The first battle begins

It was not until the sun was high in the sky the next day that Lin Chen woke up slowly.

"I think the competition has already started. The draw was yesterday. Oh, I have to hurry again."

The draw was held the day before the tournament. The person who went to draw the lots on behalf of the Tang Sect was Xu Sanshi. Among the 167 participating teams, the luckiest team could draw a bye. But Xu Sanshi's luck was obviously not that good. Therefore, as the true defending champion of the last tournament, they were about to play in the first round. And the bye in the first round was given to the Shrek Academy team after the official decision of the Sun Moon Empire. The team led by Wang Qiuer directly entered the next round and would receive the full score of 12 points.

However, no one raised any objection to this preferential treatment. After all, Shrek Academy had won too many glories in this competition, and this was what they deserved.

Lin Chen traveled for a day and a night. Yesterday was the draw ceremony, so today is the official start of the competition.

Afterwards, Lin Chen went straight to Yan Shaozhe's office.

"Come in."

Lin Chen pushed the door and walked in.

Seeing that it was Lin Chen, Yan Shaozhe smiled and said, "Lin Chen, thanks to you this time. No matter how you perform in this competition, I will ensure that you graduate successfully."

However, his words seemed a bit redundant. With Lin Chen's Soul Douluo cultivation, he was a god-like existence in the competition. Who could last a round under him? Even Tang Ya, the Blue Silver Saint of the Holy Spirit Sect, was captured alive by Lin Chen, not to mention those who were weaker.

"Well, Dean, today is the day the competition officially begins, right?"

"Yes, that's right. I think our Shrek people have already started the competition." Yan Shaozhe replied.

"Then I'll go back first."

Yan Shaozhe nodded and waved his hand to signal Lin Chen to go back to the game.

Lin Chen did not linger any longer and flew directly towards Mingdu on his sword.

On the other side, Mingdu
"Silence." A deep voice suddenly sounded, and the strong pressure instantly spread throughout the venue. The moment this voice appeared, everyone felt a blackness in front of their eyes, as if there was a dark cloud pressing down on their heads, and even their breathing became rapid. All the discussions instantly disappeared in this deep voice. The entire competition venue and the hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in the viewing area suddenly became silent, and you could hear a pin drop.

The moment he heard this voice, Huo Yuhao’s face changed in horror, and he almost blurted out, “Dark Holy Dragon, Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao.”

To others, this voice was unfamiliar, but to him, it was a very familiar voice, old but full of majesty. At the beginning, it was the owner of this voice that blocked his way, making Xuan Lao afraid of it.

He was actually there, and he personally came to help boost the Sun-Moon Empire's momentum. Huo Yuhao was now completely certain that the Holy Spirit Church had an extremely close relationship with the Sun-Moon Empire's royal family.

"Dear citizens of the Sun-Moon Empire and guests from afar, here, on behalf of His Royal Highness the Regent, I welcome you. At the same time, on behalf of His Royal Highness the Regent, I announce: the Continental Youth Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition begins now." Orange gave a simple opening speech and announced the official start of the competition without too many words.

"Long live the Regent. Long live the Regent. Long live the Regent." The people of the Sun-Moon Empire knelt on the ground and saluted the Regent who was in a wheelchair but was about to ascend the throne to become the new generation of emperor.

"My dear ministers, please take a seat." Xu Tianran said calmly.

Jing Hongchen sat on Juzi's side, while Zhongli Wu sat on Xu Tianran's side.

"Now let's read out the rules of the competition." A loud voice sounded. Then the rules of this competition were read out, which were the same as the instructions given to each team.

"Lin Chen, I feel the breath of Extreme Douluo." Lin Chen, who was flying, suddenly heard Qian Renxue's voice. Lin Chen guessed that it should be the Dragon Emperor Douluo Long Xiaoyao.

"Is it coming from where we are going?"

“Well, it seems that after thousands of years, there are still so many hidden strong people on the continent!” Qian Renxue’s face was also a little solemn. If Lin Chen was targeted, she might have to use her power.

"What are you afraid of? Sister Renxue, as long as we don't provoke him, won't it be fine?" Lin Chen said with a relaxed look.

"You are really careless. Aren't you afraid at all?"

Qian Renxue was speechless about Lin Chen's mentality.

"Oh, doesn't my confidence come from you?"

Qian Renxue:......

"go away!"

Lin Chen laughed and didn't argue with Qian Renxue. He continued to speed up and fly towards Mingdu.

That being said, Lin Chen did not place all his hopes on Qian Renxue. At any time, his own strength is what he can rely on most.

After the rules were read out, an old man walked to the loudspeaker in front of the rostrum and said loudly: "The first match of the preliminary stage elimination match - Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy vs. Dragon Slayer Sect. Both sides select seven players and enter the waiting area."

The waiting area is just in front of the pergola rest area. It is a special area. In fact, there are only seven chairs placed twenty meters apart.

According to the rules of previous competitions, the first game should have the previous championship team. However, in this competition, Shrek Academy had a bye in the first round, so naturally the second place team of the previous competition, Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, would take on the challenge.

This is undoubtedly a little trick played by the Sun-Moon Empire. On our own territory, we must at least show our momentum and cannot lose.

Soon, Huo Yuhao saw old acquaintances - Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, walking in front, followed by five young soul masters he had never seen before. They went straight into the waiting area.

"The referee enters. The first contestants of both teams' individual elimination matches will appear." The voice of the old man in charge of presiding over the event came from the rostrum.

The first person to appear on behalf of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy was Meng Hongchen. As the person whose cultivation level was second only to Xiao Hongchen in the team, she was the first to appear in the first game. It can be seen that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy was determined to win this first game.

This is not just a matter of winning or losing, but also about the reputation of the Sun and Moon Empire.

On the Dragon Slayer side, a short young man appeared. He had a peculiar appearance, with a flat head and a short body, but he looked very heavy. His hands were particularly large, spread out on both sides of his body like a palm leaf fan.

Soon, both sides stood at one end.

The referee raised his right hand high, and the moment his palm fell, the first battle of the new continental youth soul master competition officially began.
