Chapter 356
Uncle Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "On the night of the coup, Xu Guohai was one of the biggest accomplices. Now he has a high position and authority, and he is entrusted with the important task of guarding the arsenal. The benefits and treatment in it are unimaginable."

"Xu Guozhong..." He Caitou muttered the name that still had a little impression.

Judging from the Xu family genealogy, even the current crown prince Xu Tianran would respectfully call him uncle.

He Caitou vaguely remembered that when his father was alive, he never treated the Prince Xu Guozhong badly.But the person with the word "loyalty" in his name is not loyal at all.

Uncle Xiao continued: "Now I am dormant under his command. If there is a chance, I must let him go to the late emperor to make amends."

He Caitou listened to Uncle Xiao, whom he had not seen for many years, pour out his resentment, and the long-suppressed negative emotions in his heart were ignited again.

His father, Huang Zhai, had a benevolent heart and worked hard to govern. He was a benevolent monarch known throughout the Ming Dynasty.Not only won the loyalty of most of the courtiers, but also deeply loved by the people of Mingdu, leading the entire Sun Moon Empire to flourish.

However, such a benevolent monarch was buried in the point of "benevolence".

Before He Caitou's grandfather died, he entrusted him to deprive his younger brother of all rights, but He Caitou's father refused because of his kindness.

He also fell into trouble because of his kindness, and he also had that bloody night.

He Caitou's expression became more ferocious, without the cover of the human skin mask, his face looked even more terrifying.

After a long silence, He Caitou lowered his voice and asked, "Uncle Xiao, you said that you are working under Xu Bozhong now, so you have the opportunity to get in touch with the largest underground arsenal in Mingdu?"

Uncle Xiao nodded: "Yes, with His Royal Highness."

He Caitou's voice became even deeper: "Then, how many level nine custom-installed soul guide shells are there in that arsenal?"

"A lot of fixed shells have been transferred by the military, and now there are only three." Xiao Bo replied immediately, but was immediately stunned. "And the prince, do you want to..."

"But if you really do this, even the people of the entire Mingdu will be implicated!"

He Caitou said emotionally: "Uncle Xiao, I don't care about anything anymore, all I want is revenge!"

"I don't know why I live now, and the only motivation that drives me to live is revenge!"

"I must pay for the blood of those evil animals!"

"There is no time to wait for me to hide my strength and bide my time. Only the ninth-level fixed-installed soul guide shells can send them to my father to make amends now!"

"Will you help me?"

He Caitou could feel his heartbeat getting faster and faster, and his breathing became heavier and heavier, as if the scene of successful revenge had already been staged before his eyes.

After hesitating for a long time, Uncle Xiao shed a line of tears, and said in a trembling voice: "The kindness of the former emperor is unforgettable, and His Royal Highness, I will definitely follow to the death."

He already felt the madness of He Caitou, and a strong sense of sadness filled his heart.

The prince and prince whom he had grown up with, the only blood left in the world by the benevolent former emperor, completely changed after that night.

After more than ten years of exile, bearing blood and deep hatred, the young man in front of him has already changed.

Uncle Xiao did not disobey He Caitou, in fact, he knew in his heart that he was the same as He Caitou, the only motivation to support himself to live was revenge.

After losing this goal, he can only live in a daze.

Uncle Xiao calmed down his emotions, and said, "Prince and I know, there is still a place that has a large reserve of nine-level custom-installed soul guidance shells."

He Caitou hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"

"Mingde Hall."

When He Caitou heard this, there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"Uncle Shaw, let's go."

"Okay, and His Royal Highness, please follow me."

There was a long silence between the monarch and his subjects, and they left the hotel.

He Caitou took one last look in the direction of Mingyue Hotel, and resolutely left beside Xiao Bo.

Today is the day before the start of the quarter-finals, and it is also the day when the opponents will be determined by drawing lots.

The quarter-finals will be divided into upper and lower halves, and all four games will be completed in one day.

The upper half is the four teams that are second in the group, and the lower half is the four teams that are the first in the group.

After the quarter-finals of the two halves, the semi-finals will be played by the two top four teams in the half, and then the final winners from the upper and lower halves will play in the finals.

Early in the morning, the team leaders and players of all eight teams gathered in the luxurious banquet hall of Mingyue Hotel, waiting for the arrival of the referee team and the organizing committee.

There is still some time before the lottery ceremony, and the teams are discussing tactics, and the hall seems a bit noisy.

Only four members of the Tang Sect team are present, namely Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Tang Ya, and Jiang Nannan.

Beibei lowered his head and analyzed: "We controlled the points very well this time in the quarter-finals, and we didn't get assigned to the more intense lower half."

"Excluding all possibilities, then the Snow Demon Sect should be the Noumenon Sect's false name. The two strong teams of the Noumenon Sect and the Holy Spirit Sect in the lower half were avoided by us. The only strong opponent in the upper half is the Sun Moon Academy."

"It's a pity that the chances of students encountering strong enemies will be greatly increased."

The strength of Shrek's second team is far inferior to that of the first team. If they encounter Noumenon Sect or Holy Spirit Sect, the odds of winning are not great to be honest.

Xu Sanshi said carelessly: "Beibei, have you forgotten that there is Yuhao's Dragon and Tiger Gate?"

Beibei smiled slightly, and just about to continue speaking, she saw Wang Dongzheng and Xiao Xiao hurrying over in the distance.

"Eldest brother, senior sister, it's not good." Wang Dong looked anxious.

"What's the matter, Wang Dong? Don't worry, talk about things slowly." Beibei signaled Wang Dong to relax.

Wang Dong said anxiously, "Second Senior Brother, he's gone."

The second senior brother naturally refers to He Caitou who ranks second in age, second only to Beibei.

"What?" Beibei was taken aback and asked quickly.

"When did he disappear?"

Xiao Xiao said worriedly: "Last night, he said he was going to watch the Mingdu Underground Soul Engineer Competition, but he never came back."

Xu Sanshi was dumbfounded: "Huh? He didn't lose everything and was detained there by underground forces, did he? I advised him not to go to any underground competitions."

Jiang Nannan frowned, and said, "Xu Sanshi, what time is it, and you're still making sarcastic remarks."

Tang Ya exclaimed: "How can that work? Let's go find Caitou!"

With that said, she was about to leave.

Beibei quickly persuaded her: "Xiaoya, don't worry. Caitou is also a seventh-level soul engineer, so he will be fine."

Only then did Tang Ya calm down, nodded and said, "Okay."

At this time, Xu Sanshi said: "What if I can't find Caitou?"

Jiang Nannan gave him a hard look: "Xu Sanshi, can you say something good from your mouth?"

Xu Sanshi said aggrievedly: "I'm also thinking about everyone. There are only seven of us. If Caitou is really lost and there is no substitute, will the next match be six-on-seven?"

Tang Ya suddenly got a little excited and said, "Now it's such a big deal that people disappear, don't you still only think about the game?"

Xu Sanshi was stunned for a moment, then his expression became a little serious, and he slightly bowed his head and apologized: "I was wrong."

Now Tang Ya seems to have shown the majesty of being the suzerain for the first time, even Tang Ya herself did not realize that in her mind, people from the Tang Sect seem to be more important than the glory of the Tang Sect It's one o'clock.

Wang Dong is also extremely worried about He Caitou's whereabouts at the moment.

He Caitou had heard about the underground soul mentor competition in Mingdu before, and said that as a soul mentor, he had to watch it no matter what, and he returned safely before dawn every time.

But until now, He Caitou is still missing.

At this moment, a slightly old-fashioned voice said casually.

"Leave him alone and continue to compete."

Everyone in the Tang Sect turned their heads after hearing the words, only to see a slovenly old man eating chicken legs.

It was Taotie Douluo, Elder Xuan.

"But, Elder Xuan..." Tang Ya was about to say something, but was interrupted by Elder Xuan.

"The current grouping situation is very unfavorable. The second team is divided into the upper half where there are many strong enemies. Their strength is not as good as yours. We can only rely on you to guard Shrek's glory."

Old Xuan said: "Don't affect your mentality because of the lack of personnel. I know that you don't have reserve players. I'll see if I can find opportunities to draw someone from the second team to be your substitute."

He threw away the chicken leg bone in his hand and continued: "Xie Huanyue's figure is somewhat similar to He Caitou's, and her strength is not bad. Or I can transfer Ning Tian over and add a soul teacher or auxiliary system for you." Soul master."

Elder Xuan took a last sip of wine: "As for He Caitou, the elders and I will help you find it, just rest assured."

Listening to Elder Xuan's instructions, everyone in the Tang Sect fell silent.

Beibei said in a low voice: "For the time being, that's all we can do. Let's follow Elder Xuan's arrangement."

Tang Ya could only nod respectfully: "Yes, Elder Xuan."

Everyone in the Tang Sect did not express any objection to Elder Xuan's arrangement. Although they were in the Tang Sect team in name, they all knew in their hearts that they were the first team of Shrek Academy.

"Well, let's draw lots first."

After Elder Xuan gave his orders, he turned his back and continued to take out a chicken drumstick to eat.

He did not reveal his identity and strength, and no one present could recognize him, and only regarded him as a weird, slovenly old man.

Looking at Elder Xuan's back, Wang Dong felt a little puzzled and perplexed.

She didn't know why, Elder Xuan, who was usually a little strict but still a little kind, would become so strange when he came to the soul master competition.

It was like this last time in the competition, and it's also like this this time, as if he was obsessed with the so-called glory of Shrek.

Elder Xuan almost gave up hope for the second team. Not only was the overall strength of the second team weaker than that of the first team, but the grouping pressure was even greater.

Now if we can just give up the second team and temporarily transfer a few top fighters from the second team to the first team, the strength of the first team can be greatly supplemented, and the chances of winning the championship will be greatly increased.

While thinking, Elder Xuan did not leave, but scanned the hall, searching for a figure of a certain person.

Huo Yuhao.

In fact, when the competition started, he was extremely surprised by Huo Yuhao's appearance, so he must have a face-to-face conversation with him.

However, except for participating in the competition, Huo Yuhao seemed to have completely disappeared, no matter where he could be found, he must not be able to escape in this lottery hall now.

Finally, Huo Yuhao also appeared, and he was the only one, while Tianmeng and the other three did not come out.

"The chicken-legged old man is here, Yuhao, we won't go out, be careful..." Tianmeng said in the sea of ​​spirits.

"I've already seen it, so I don't need to remind you." Huo Yuhao frowned.

Xue Di also said in a concentrated voice: "There are at least level 98, such a powerful human being. And from him, I feel a kind of coercion on the bloodline."

Elder Xuan naturally also noticed Huo Yuhao, and walked forward slowly.

"Old Xuan, long time no see." Huo Yuhao said indifferently.

Elder Xuan snorted coldly, and said, "Huo Yuhao, I didn't expect you to recognize me."

He still wanted to continue, but he heard that the officials on the stage had already started to speak, so he had to give up for now.

"All young elite soul masters from all over the mainland, here, I would like to congratulate you for passing the fierce round-robin competition and entering..."

On the rostrum, an official with a smile on his face gave an emotional speech for a quarter of an hour without script.This kind of eloquence made Huo Yuhao feel that although the other party has no soul power, he is at least a division level.

After the speeches, it was the draw of lots.

"Next, let's invite the four teams from the upper half to come on stage and conduct a lucky draw."

The four teams sent representatives to the stage one after another.

Shrek sent captain Dai Huabin, Holy Spirit Sect sent member Ji Li, Snow Demon Sect sent member Mu Xue, Proud Sword Sect sent captain Wu Yifan.

All members of the Shrek team became tense, as did everyone in the Tang Sect.

None of them were willing to draw the Holy Spirit Sect and the Snow Demon Sect, and the best result would be the weakest Proud Sword Sect.

"The cards with the names of the four teams are all in the box. Please send one of the four of you to draw one as your opponent. If you draw yourself, you will draw again. The remaining two teams will automatically become opponents."

"Excuse me, who will come first?" Before the official finished speaking, Wu Yifan, the captain of the Proud Sword Sect, waved his hand, shooting out a ray of soul power, and a card popped out of the box, with the big characters of the Holy Spirit Sect written on it.

Shrek and everyone in the Tang Sect couldn't help showing troublesome looks, which meant that in the first round of the quarter-finals, Shrek had collided with the Holy Spirit Sect.

Next up is the bottom half.

Xingluo sent the team leader for Jiu Jiujiu, Sun Moon sent Meng Hongchen, Tang Sect sent the team leader Tang Ya, and the Dragon and Tiger Sect naturally had only Huo Yuhao alone.

He didn't speak for a long time, but just winked at Huo Yuhao.

Meng Hongchen smiled slightly: "Since none of you want to come, let me try my luck."

After speaking, she reached out to the lottery box, and took out a card, which was written with the name of Star Luo Royal Academy.

Tang Ya couldn't help being stunned, and turned to look at Huo Yuhao.

"Why such a coincidence?" Wang Dong frowned in the audience.

This meant that Tang Sect and Huo Yuhao became opponents in the first quarter-final match.

Meng Hongchen looked at Xu Jiujiu with some disdain, and was just about to speak out to make a pre-match provocation, but Xu Jiujiu smiled slightly, and then said directly to the referees.

"Chief referee, I am forfeiting the match on behalf of Star Luo Royal Academy."

Meng Hongchen was stunned by this moment, as if he had hit the cotton with all his strength: "What? How could you just give up the game?"

The chief referee didn't expect such a situation even if he didn't break Douluo Zheng Zhan, so he asked with some surprise: "Leader Xingluo, are you sure you want to do this?"

Xu Jiujiu bowed helplessly: "I'm very sorry, chief referee, our team members were seriously injured in the round robin match, and I'm afraid we won't be able to participate in the next quarter-finals."

Zheng Zhan thought for a while, and said: "Since this is the case, that's the only way to go. Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy, congratulations on your successful promotion and becoming the first top four team."

After a provocative look at Meng Hongchen for a long time, he made a slight nasal sound of disdain, as if they were the ones who abandoned the match and were the more arrogant side.

At the same time, she shrugged helplessly at Huo Yuhao, and the two exchanged glances before returning to the field.
