Douluo, time travel to Dou Er at the beginning

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight hit Star Luo City, the capital of the Star Luo Empire revealed a serious aura.

All the streets around Xingluo Plaza were blocked by soldiers in bright armor, especially near the Xinghuang Hotel, where thousands of soldiers were stationed. The streets leading to Xingluo Plaza have been completely martial law.Only the participating members of each academy who walked out of the Star King Hotel can pass.

The competition stage used for this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition was not built in the center of Xingluo Square, but in front of the main gate of the Imperial City.In this way, His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire and his civil and military officials can directly watch the battle from the top of the imperial city.Not only the best view, but also safe and worry-free.

The entire competition stage is meters long and meters high. There are a total of metal pillars around the competition stage. This is not a decoration, but a real protective soul guide. After the competition begins, one hundred and eight soul masters will take charge of the protection of the competition stage. These metal pillars will form a protective shield to block all soul skills inside from escaping, so as not to damage the imperial city or hurt innocent people.

Just building this competition stage cost a huge amount of money, plus mobilizing soul masters to serve the competition for more than a month. Without national-level strength, it is really difficult.

At this time, Xingluo Square was empty. Except for the soldiers in the distance, there was no one in the square.

The last time the Star Luo Empire held the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, there was a stampede. This time the Star Luo Empire royal family attached great importance to it. Not only did they dispatch a large army to maintain order, but they also came up with many new methods.

There are many iron fences in the square. These iron fences with a height of about 1.5 meters will not affect the sight of most people, but they divide the square into different areas. There are different entrances and exits for spectators entering and exiting. This way, it would be much easier for the soldiers to maintain order. There will also be clear limits on the number of people allowed in each area.

The imperial city is on the north side, facing south, and there is also a luxurious rest area on the west side of the competition platform, which is specially provided for the participating players of each academy.However, the rest area can only accommodate about seventy colleges.Apparently not prepared for a seat in the first-round eliminated academy.This is not a waste of it.At the same time, it can also stimulate the fighting spirit of the participating students.

Since the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition changed to the current competition system, apart from the final stage of the competition, the most exciting thing is actually the first round of the knockout round, which is far more exciting and even tragic than the subsequent competitions. round robin.

Round robin can also have tactical arrangements, and even tactical failures.But this first round is a direct knockout match. If you lose, you will leave. Any participating academy must pass this level.Even Shrek Academy, the former champion, is the same.There is a bye in the competition, but no academy can directly enjoy the bye.

Early in the morning, the leading teachers from each college had already arrived in the imperial city first, and drew lots with the number plates they received during registration.At this point, the lottery ceremony was all over.The Star Luo Empire has its own officials to count the lottery results.As soon as the order of competition comes out, the final preparations for the competition will be considered complete.

The sun slowly rose into the sky from the distant east, and a sense of warmth suddenly rose in Xingluo City, which was located in the middle of the continent.

At the top of the imperial city, a middle-aged man wearing a bright yellow robe and a purple gold crown with eight treasures on his head stood with his hands behind his back. The position he was standing at was in the very center of the imperial city's main gate, and it was also the best place to watch the competition stage below.

Beside him was a beautiful woman wearing a gorgeous palace dress, who was respectfully and tenderly accompanying him. A few steps behind were the civil and military officials of the Star Luo Empire.

"Your Majesty." An old man in bright red civil servant's attire stepped forward quickly, came to the man's side and saluted respectfully. From the python pattern embroidered on his robe, it could be seen that the old man's status was extremely noble.It can be described as an extremely human minister.

"Prime Minister, how are the arrangements going?" His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire asked with a smile.

The Prime Minister said respectfully: "Everything has been arranged. The draw is over and the order of the competition has been arranged. The outside is in order. People can be allowed in."

Emperor Xingluo nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, pass on my order. People will be allowed to enter the arena at each gate, control the speed, and maintain order. If there is a problem with whoever is in charge, he will be punished severely."

"Yes." The prime minister took a few steps back before turning around and leaving.

Emperor Xingluo said to the beautiful woman beside him: "Queen, I have waited twenty years for this grand event. I really miss my youth! It's a pity that the royal family has too many rules, otherwise I really wanted to participate once."

The queen smiled slightly and said: "The emperor always has a warrior's heart."

Emperor Xingluo smiled and said: "You see, students from participating colleges have already entered the venue first. But today they cannot use the rest area. Only those who win the knockout round are eligible to enter the rest area. It is said that this time Shrek Academy Only ten people came. Many of the participating team members were very young. One of the leading team members was Dai Hao’s eldest son. I originally wanted to bring Dai Hao back to watch the game. After all, it only takes his turn to come to our country once every twenty years. But Later, I thought about it and let it go. The Sun and Moon Empire is becoming more and more restless, so I feel more at ease with him guarding Western Xinjiang."

The queen just listened gently without making any comments. As the mother of the country, she also could not interfere in politics, especially when there were many civil servants and generals on both sides. Those generals are all powerful soul masters, and their ears are very strong.

At this moment, people began to enter the arena from all directions of Star Luo Plaza. Under the guidance of soldiers, they gathered in the arena like long dragons.

It is not free to watch the continent-wide senior soul master academies soul fighting competition. The daily admission fee is not too expensive, just two gold soul coins. However, although Xingluo Plaza has strictly controlled the number of visitors, it can still accommodate more than people watching the game at the same time. Two gold soul coins are just the basic price. The closer the area is to the competition table, the more expensive the admission fee will be. In the viewing area closest to the competition stage, everyone must pay a hundred gold soul coins to enter.

For civilians, this is a lot of money, but for some businessmen and nobles, it is nothing.

The Star Luo Empire has adopted a method of treating all spectators equally. Those with money will be placed at the front at most. But the treatment is the same, you can only stand and watch the game. There aren't even seats. This way more people can be accommodated.

From the daily admission fee income alone, the Star Luo Empire can receive approximately two million gold soul coins. In one month, that would be 60 million gold soul coins. Excluding military expenditures and investment, the empire can also make a lot of money. This is one of the reasons why the four major empires are very willing to hold the continent-wide Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition. You know, Star Luo City’s annual tax revenue is almost this amount!

Just as the audience entered the venue, Huo Yuhao and his friends had already come to stand in the contestant area.

Today, everyone in Shrek Academy is wearing the traditional dark green uniform, which is the standard color of Shrek Academy. Moreover, the position they were standing in was also in the first row of all the colleges. No one of the colleges had any objection to this. This is the glory accumulated by Shrek Academy through its strength for thousands of years.

However, the academy contestants standing behind looked at the lineup of Shrek Academy and couldn't help but express some surprise.

Even if only ten people came, most of them seemed to be far from twenty years old. You can completely tell how young they are without evaluating their bone age. Only the three at the front looked almost old enough. But they all wore cloaks, covering their appearance.

For most of the academies, they are now secretly praying in their hearts, don't run into such strong people as Shrek Academy or Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy in the first round.Otherwise, it is almost equivalent to announcing that they have been eliminated.

The participating team members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy stood behind the Shrek Academy.This also makes it easier for them to observe the Shrek Academy students in front.

The youngest ones in Shrek Academy are Yue Tian, ​​Zhu Lu, Huo Yuhao, and Wang Dong. With such a lineup, even the arrogant Xiao Hongchen was filled with doubts. What on earth was Shrek Academy planning to do with such a lineup? Yue Tian's deeds were blocked by the higher-ups of the college, which resulted in many people only knowing about Yue Tian's life experience.

It took nearly half an hour for the audience to enter the arena, and the number of people was too many.

The originally empty Xingluo Square was now overcrowded. Fortunately, there were some iron bars blocking the area, dividing it into areas, and the soldiers maintaining order, so it didn't seem so chaotic.

At this time, it was already three poles in the sun.

"Quiet." A loud voice suddenly spread throughout the audience.Hearing this voice, all the soldiers stood at attention and held up their spears at the same time.Immediately, a murderous atmosphere spread throughout the audience.The noisy Star Luo Plaza suddenly became quiet.

"His Majesty the Emperor is here."

"Wow--" The people suddenly fell to their knees in large areas, and hundreds of thousands of people made the same neat movements at the same time. The scene was indeed extremely spectacular.

The soldiers knelt on one knee, and all participating academies had been notified accurately before that they were allowed not to kneel, but they had to bow ninety degrees to show their respect for the emperor.

"My lords, please come to peace." The voice of the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire was amplified and transmitted by the amplified soul guide. The people then stood up one after another, and the students from the participating colleges also straightened their backs. Everyone's eyes were focused on the top of the imperial city directly ahead.

Emperor Xingluo had already brought his queen and officials to the front of the city, patrolling his people with gentle but majestic eyes.

"The Soul Fighting Competition of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy is the most important event in the world of soul masters in the Douluo Continent. I am very happy that it is our turn to hold this session in the Star Luo Empire. Here, on behalf of the Star Luo Empire, I welcome you from afar. Representatives from various academies headed by Shrek Academy came here. I hope you will show your due demeanor in the next month's competition."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The leaders and students from the colleges bowed again.

Emperor Xing Luo also smiled and nodded in their direction.

"Okay, I announce that the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition has officially begun." Under the loud announcement of Emperor Xingluo, the curtain of this grand event was unveiled.

"Long live, long live, long live!" the people shouted in unison. Emotions were aroused almost instantly.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom..." The roar of the salute sounded from the top of the city, and it lasted for rounds before it stopped.Star Luo Plaza has become a sea of ​​excitement and cheers.

Emperor Xingluo led all the officials back slightly, the seats had been set up, he sat down with the empress, and waved to the prime minister next to him.The prime minister immediately understood and gave his subordinates the order to start the competition.

The loud voice from before suddenly sounded again, "According to the competition rules of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, the first round will be an elimination round. In this competition, there are a total of senior soul masters and soul teacher academies who have signed up. Thirteen schools. After drawing lots, one of them got a bye in the first round. A total of sixty-six games will be played. The first round is a knockout system. The loser will directly end the journey of this competition. Next, the first game will start immediately. . The two sides of the competition are the Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy team from the Dou Ling Empire, and the Shrek Academy team from the No. Academy in the mainland, which has countless honors and has won almost all competition championships in the past nearly a thousand years."

With the announcement made by the host of the competition, the atmosphere in the entire Star Luo Plaza suddenly boiled to its peak.

"Shrek, Shrek, Shrek..."

The voice calling Shrek Academy resounded almost every corner of the square.

Faced with this situation, the seven reserve team members who were about to play were a little dumbfounded. This is the first time they have encountered such a situation and situation. Everyone looked a little pale for a while. This is hundreds of thousands of viewers! If, if they lose this game and Shrek Academy is eliminated, they simply cannot imagine that situation.

"Everyone, don't panic. This is the glory that belongs to our Shrek Academy. It is also the glory that will soon belong to you. At the beginning, in the last competition, we also faced such a situation. What I can tell you is that our The opponent will definitely be ten times more nervous and panicked than us, because we are Shrek Academy." Ma Xiaotao's voice reached the ears of every reserve team member.

Faced with the situation before him, even Wang Yan, who is leading the team, is the first time!Only Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng and Ling Luochen faced each other when they represented Shrek Academy as the reserve team last term.At this time, Ma Xiaotao's words were naturally the most convincing.

Dai Yueheng immediately interjected: "Xiaotao is right. These cheers are for us, they are the glory of our Shrek Academy. What is needed now is your explosion. Once you take the stage, use your strength to prove our strength to everyone. The strength of Shrek Academy. Go ahead. Straighten your chests and use your best mental outlook to reward these supporters."

With the encouragement of the two seniors, the turbulent mood of the crowd calmed down a bit, but everyone's palms were still sweating.Of course they don't know that in the history of Shrek Academy, there has never been a reserve player who appeared in the first round.Because this first match represented the face of Shrek Academy, and it was the first time for the reserve team members to face such an enthusiastic audience, so it would definitely affect their minds.Therefore, in the first game, all the main players must play.

However, now they have no other choice at all!

At this moment, the voice of the host of the competition sounded, "Let's first invite the players from Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy to play."

At a relatively rear position in the player area, a group of pale-faced young players came out.When they walked out of the player area, it seemed that even their footsteps were a little wobbly.

Ma Xiaotao smiled and said to Yue Tian and others: "Look, this is your opponent. Did you notice? Some people's calves are sifting through chaff. The reputation of Shrek Academy does put a heavy responsibility on you. The burden is heavy. However, the glory of our Shrek Academy is also one of your most powerful weapons. Show your courage and strength, Shrek will win."

While saying this, Ma Xiaotao strode up to Beibei and stretched out her right hand. Others stepped forward. Eleven right hands are placed together.

"Okay, the members of the Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy have already appeared. At this moment of great attention, let us invite the first academy in the mainland, the real king of the academy, the Shrek Academy representative team to appear." The host The high-pitched voice pierced the clouds, and Star Luo Square suddenly turned into a sea of ​​cheers for Shrek. Even the Star Luo Emperor, who was sitting on top of the city watching the battle, couldn't help but stand up, with excitement on his face. Who knows that when he was still a prince, he studied in Shrek Academy under a pseudonym? Until now, he still loves someone deeply in his heart, loving her who still stays in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy...
