Douluo's Thief

A month later.

Ling Dong is now used to life in Tiandou City.

Originally possessing level 24 soul power, he has almost reached level 25, and may break through at any time. This is also the result of his hard training.

While maintaining high-intensity training, Ling Dong would take time to stroll around Tiandou City every day.

If normal people's shopping is to choose their favorite things in many stores, then Ling Dong's shopping is to explore for treasures and money in many treasure houses.

Ling Dong's shopping was not just about wandering around, but rather purposeful visits to major chambers of commerce to obtain useful information.

His target list has basically been completed by him.

What Ling Dong needs to do next is to select his first target and obtain more detailed information.

There is no doubt about the importance of information, and any information gap may change the final result.

But before that, Ling Dong was intrigued by something, and that was the opening of the Continent-wide Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition.

Today is the first day of the elite competition, and the contestants will start their first game today.

This competition is open to the public, but you need to buy a ticket.

Although it is open to everyone, the ticket price is not cheap and not everyone can afford it. A one-day ticket requires five Gintama coins.

And this is just the ticket price for the first round. The ticket prices for the last few rounds will only get higher and higher.

Even so, the business of this soul master competition is still booming, and the auditorium will be packed in basically every round.

Ling Dong was also one of these spectators. Although he did not participate, he had been curious about the competition in the famous continent for a long time.

Information is information, no matter what it is, it cannot be better than seeing it with your own eyes.

Ling Dong went to the competition venue.

The playing field is huge and full of people inside and outside.

The Great Soul Fighting Arena as a competition venue belongs to the Tiandou Imperial Family. Its symbolic significance is far greater than its actual use. It is usually refused to be opened to the outside world and will only be used for major competitions.

Ling Dong came to the audience entrance.

At this time, there were still two hours before the official start of the competition, but the entrance to the Grand Fighting Spirit Arena was already full of queues. The length of the queues could even reach the hotel two streets away.

There were several staff members checking tickets in front of the entrance, and spectators were let into the Arena auditorium one by one.

There is a VIP area in the auditorium, but that requires dozens of times more money and the status of a soul master.

Although dozens of times the money was a piece of cake for Ling Dong, he still bought ordinary seats to avoid attracting attention.

Ling Dong was in no hurry to join the queue. His eyesight allowed him to see clearly no matter where he sat in the field.

"That's what I said, but I could come back later. Why are you here so early? Your head is probably hot." Ling Dong rubbed his eyebrows with two fingers, feeling helpless for his brain twitching.

The one who didn't go to the end of the queue started queuing, and Ling Dong came to a snack bar.

There were not many people in the snack shop and it was very quiet, suitable for meditation in the winter.

In order to find a quiet place, Ling Dong deliberately walked a long way from the Great Soul Fighting Arena.

At this time, the shops near the Grand Soul Fighting Arena were all full and extremely lively, and this was due to this Soul Master Elite Competition.

Ling Dong found a place to sit down, and the boss also came to him when he saw this.

Before the boss could speak, Ling Dong said:

"A cup of soy milk, that's it."

"Okay, wait a moment."

After the boss left, Ling Dong glanced at the other people in the store, and a group of them caught Ling Dong's attention.

These were five young people in their twenties, sitting in a corner of the snack bar, eating breakfast.

The strength of this group of people is quite impressive. After Ling Dong's detection, he found that all of these people possess the strength of Soul Lord.

And the soul power level of one of the tall and thin men even exceeded level 35.

Through Ling Dong's mental detection, this group of people were hiding neat blue team uniforms under their uneven coats.

Each of the five young men wore a badge on their chest with four words engraved on it.

Lanba Academy.

Obviously, this is a member of a team participating in this elite soul master competition.

This kind of strength is also average among the contestants, but compared with the Five Elements Academy, it is still a little behind.

Ling Dong knew about this soul master academy called Lanba, which was the only soul master academy that only accepted civilians.

And this may also explain why a group of soul masters came to such a small shop to have breakfast.

Ling Dong found that he actually had a slight fondness for this college.

Ignoring the members of Lanba Academy, Ling Dong leaned back on the chair, with his head lying on the back of the chair, crossing his legs and meditating.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye, and Ling Dong also arrived at the auditorium of the Elite Soul Master Competition.

"Number 67, row 13." This is his seat number.

The auditorium was packed, and the venue, which could accommodate 80,000 people, was well-deserved.

At this time, all the players have almost entered the stadium and are waiting for the start of the game in the middle of the field.

Ling Dong came to the thirteenth row and found his seat.

As soon as Ling Dong sat down, he heard the master of ceremonies say:

"Next, I invite His Majesty the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire to announce the opening of this competition."

Ling Dong couldn't help but look at the first row of VIP seats.

There were only three people in the first row of the VIP seats, and Ling Dong knew their identities clearly.

The person on the left is the platinum bishop from Wuhun Palace, Zhu Jiaoyi.

The person on the right is Ning Fengzhi, the leader of Qibao Glazed Sect.

Ning Fengzhi could be said to be the person Ling Dong most wanted to rob. As the richest man among the three major forces, Ning Fengzhi was unsurprisingly the target of many people's attention.

Ning Fengzhi is an auxiliary soul master and has no resistance at all.

Countless people fantasized about finding an opportunity to kill this person and seize his wealth, but the two major titled Douluo of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect undoubtedly persuaded many people to retreat.

Ling Dong would not commit suicide by trying to rob Ning Fengzhi now. That would be no different from committing suicide.

And sitting in the middle is the supreme ruler of Tiandou, Emperor Xueye.

Xue Ye is worthy of being an emperor of a generation, with extraordinary temperament and domineering attitude, making everyone feel centered around him.

Ling Dong curled his lips, these three people were quite naughty.

The next moment, the voice of Emperor Xue Ye came.

"I, Emperor Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire, on behalf of the Heaven Dou Empire and the organizer of this competition, announce that the Pan-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition is now open."
