She was going to participate in the Soul Master Competition when the Spirit Hall Team faced the Heaven Dou Royal First Team!
The maximum age required for the Soul Master Competition was no more than twenty-five years old, and she still met the participation requirements this year.
To subdue Xiao Tian, she had gone all out, appearing before everyone early for him.
As for whether Bibi Dong would agree? She didn't care; with her grandfather stepping forward, Bibi Dong had no choice but to agree!
Two days passed in a flash.
Early this morning, all the contestants who were about to go to Spirit City for the final competition were gathered at the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace for a motivational speech.
Emperor Xue Ye stood on the high platform, looking at the FifteenSpirit Master teams below, and said solemnly, "Today is the day you depart for Spirit City to participate in the final competition. I will have Crown PrinceXue Qinghe accompany you, and an additional five hundred Royal Knights will escort you."
"All Spirit Master teams that have advanced, in addition to receiving a reward of ten thousand gold coins, the captain and vice-captain of their respective teams will be ennobled as Viscounts, and the other team members as Barons. If a team can win the championship in the final competition, then the rank of all members of that team will be elevated by one more level, and their respective academy will be granted the title of 'Royal' and enjoy national financial subsidies. At the same time, the three Spirit Masters who perform exceptionally well in the finals will be able to choose a Spirit Beast under thirty thousand years old from the Royal Soul Hunting Forest."
All contestants:
The captains of the Four Element Academies all looked at the Heaven Dou Royal First Team in the center. The previous rewards were normal, but was this final championship reward not prepared for their own people?
Although none of them had seen Xiao Tian make a move yet, his strength, which was reported several months ago, was that of a Spirit King, and his current strength would only be greater.
However, although Shui Bing'er and the others from Tianshui Academy did not look relaxed, they breathed a sigh of relief when they thought of the power of their Spirit Fusion Skill, which even a Spirit Emperor would find difficult to contend with. Their trump card had not been used yet; it was saved for dealing with the Heaven Dou Royal First Team.
As for Blazing Fire Academy, Thunder Academy, and Divine Wind Academy, they did not appear as relaxed as Tianshui Academy.
As for Shrek Academy, Tang San finally returned yesterday.
Moreover, everyone learned that his first Spirit could not be used for some reason, and he could only add spirit rings to his Clear Sky Hammer.
And privately, Yu Xiaogang also understood what had happened and could only sigh helplessly. He had not expected that Little San's Blue Silver GrassSpirit would directly disappear due to the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline being extracted.
This also made him realize that he had stumbled into something by mistake, and he couldn't help but blush.
Then wouldn't his trip to Spirit City this time be in vain?
But it was fine this way; Little San's cultivation of the Clear Sky Hammer would have no side effects.
Xiao Tian stood at the head of the Heaven Dou Royal First Team, his gaze sweeping towards Shrek Academy on the other side. At this moment, Tang San also happened to look at him, giving off a feeling of needle point to wheat awn, oh no, a feeling of an ant facing an elephant.
And on the stage, after Emperor Xue Ye mentioned Qian Renxue, she also stepped out and smiled and nodded to the teams below.
A moment later, Emperor Xue Ye finally finished speaking and had the various academies board their carriages in order, with the Heaven Dou Royal Knights leading the way.
This time, Dugu Bo left with Xiao Tian, not only to escort him but also to go to Shu Mountain with him after the competition ended.
As for Xue Beng and Prince Xue Xing, his life-saving grace had been repaid, and he had a clear conscience.
By the time their convoy arrived at Spirit City, nearly a week had passed.
During this period, the journey was very peaceful, and there was no interception by Spirit Hall Teams midway as in the original work. This might also be because Tang San did not use his Clear Sky HammerSpirit in the Heaven Dou City competition area, so Bibi Dong had no reason to act.
After all, the major powers were well aware of why Spirit Hall had acted in the first place, so no one openly criticized Spirit Hall afterwards, and this news of the interception was not even spread to the lower echelons.
However, this time, unlike the original work, Bibi Dong had no reason to act rashly.
Although during their interception, Tang San was very likely to be forced to reveal his second Spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer, for self-defense, what if he wasn't forced to reveal it? Then things would become a bit serious, as the people of Spirit Hall did not yet know that Tang San's first Spirit had actually been shattered.
After they arrived at Spirit City, they checked into the hotel specially prepared for them by Spirit Hall.
After a day of rest, the drawing of lots would officially begin tomorrow, with the order of drawing based on the ranking of the promotion rounds.
The Two Great Empires each had Fifteen teams, plus the two Royal Teams and the Spirit Hall Team, making a total of thirty-three teams, and one of them would receive a bye.
The team that drew the bye would automatically advance.
However, the bye could only be effective once, meaning each team had only one chance for a bye at most; drawing it again would be invalid.
At this moment, in the room, Xiao Tian was also very much looking forward to tomorrow's drawing of lots, hoping to draw a relatively powerful team. All of them were already somewhat eager.
Night, Supreme Pontiff Palace.
Bibi Dong looked at Qian Renxue, who had regained her female form, and said in surprise, "I didn't expect you to come to me. Shouldn't you go to your grandfather?"
Qian Renxue snorted coldly, without wasting words, and said directly, "Bibi Dong, I want to participate in this year's Soul Master Elite Competition as a member of the Spirit Hall Team!"
"What did you say?!" Bibi Dong looked astonished, then said, "No, you cannot appear before the world. Your Spirit is too conspicuous!"
Bibi Dong's emotions instantly became agitated. She did not want Yu Xiaogang to know that she and Supreme PontiffQian Xunji had a child.
But then, she calmed down. Why should she care about Yu Xiaogang's feelings?
If the booklet Qian Renxue gave her was real, then Yu Xiaogang deserved to die!
Moreover, she was also very curious as to why Qian Renxue would suddenly make such a decision. One must know that if her true form appeared in Spirit City, with her strength, it would definitely make the major powers of the continent even more wary of Spirit Hall, which would more or less affect her current mission and Spirit Hall's subsequent plans.
What was it for, that made her do this too?
Qian Renxue merely said, "I'm just doing it because I made a bet with someone. If I win against him, he will become my subordinate."
Bibi Dong: ???
Bibi Dong: "What if you lose?"
Qian Renxue: "Then I'll be his subordinate."
