Chapter 71: Junior Brother Yun Yuan is the MVP, and I, Bibi Dong, have become a carry-on dog?
Clear Sky Sect, inside the main hall.
At this moment, the figures of Tang Chen, Tang Zhen, Tang Xiao, and Tang Hao appeared here.
"Zhen'er, for this Spirit Master Tournament, you should lead the prodigies of our Clear Sky Sect under the age of thirty; it just so happens that Xiao'er falls within this age group."
"With Xiao'er's natural talent, he should be able to take the championship of this Spirit Master Tournament. It just so happens that two of those three Soul Bones belong to our Clear Sky Sect; we'll take them back while we're at it."
Tang Chen looked at his son Tang Zhen and spoke of his plan.
With Spirit Hall's involvement in this Spirit Master Tournament, the participating forces, the competition format, and the age of the contestants were all very different from before.
First was the participating forces. No one knew what Spirit Hall was up to this time, but they actually brought out three ten-thousand-year Soul Bones to invite the major forces of the continent to participate. This was simply beyond extravagant.
Faced with the temptation of three ten-thousand-year Soul Bones, the continental forces naturally could not refuse and dispatched teams to compete for them.
Next was the competition format. Spirit Hall, the Upper Three Sects, and the Lower Four Sects each had one spot to go directly to the finals.
The remaining eight spots were to be contested by the academies within the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire, along with the rest of the continent's forces.
In the end, only sixteen teams could head to Spirit City to compete for the championship throne.
Finally, there was the age limit for contestants, which had increased by three years from the previous limit of twenty-five to twenty-eight for this competition.
"Father, rest assured. Looking at the current state of the younger generation, even the geniuses of Spirit Hall are no match for Xiao'er."
"If we waited a few more years for that super Genius Yun Yuan from Spirit Hall to grow up, Xiao'er might not necessarily be his match, but for now, it is still Xiao'er's home court."
Tang Zhen guaranteed to Tang Chen, his eyes full of confidence in his eldest son, Tang Xiao.
As for that super Genius Yun Yuan from Spirit Hall, even if he has already achieved a Breakthrough to Soul Elder, there is still a twenty-Rank difference. He did not believe Yun Yuan could truly defeat Tang Xiao against the odds.
After Tang Zhen finished speaking, Tang Xiao took a step forward and patted his chest, his words filled with confidence.
"That's right, Grandfather. The biggest opponent in this Spirit Master Tournament is Spirit Hall, but I know all the geniuses of my age in Spirit Hall; they are not my match."
"The three ten-thousand-year Soul Bones, I will definitely retrieve them for the Sect. I will not fail your expectations, Grandfather."
Just then, Tang Hao also took a step forward and stated his request.
"Father, Grandfather, I also want to participate in this Spirit Master Tournament. I have regained my Dao Heart. This time, I want to take the geniuses of Spirit Hall as my opponents to temper myself."
After half a year, he had already emerged from his previous state of a shattered Dao Heart; now, his Dao Heart was even firmer.
In the short term, he would no longer compare himself with Yun Yuan. What he wanted to strive for was a continuous flow. When he becomes a super Douluo, how much further ahead could Yun Yuan really be?
Everyone would be stuck below the level of Divinity. Relying on the Ring Explosion divine technique, his strength would definitely not be inferior to Yun Yuan's.
At the same time, across the continent, various forces began to prepare for this Spirit Master Tournament.
After all, the reward for the championship this time was a full three ten-thousand-year Soul Bones. How precious was that?
Except for the Upper Three Sects, other forces might not even possess a single ten-thousand-year Soul Bone, or at most, only one.
Soon, this bustling Spirit Master Tournament began. First were the qualifiers, then the knockouts, and finally the finals.
The qualifiers and knockouts took up more than two months. During these two months, the forces that were pre-selected for the finals began to frantically train their teams.
In the blink of an eye, two months passed, and the competition process entered the finals stage.
The teams that advanced to the finals, besides the eight pre-selected teams, the other eight teams were:
Star Luo Imperial Academy Team, Heaven Dou Imperial Academy Team, Godwind Academy Team, Thunder Academy Team, Tianshui Academy Team, Blazing Academy Team, Botanical Academy Team, and the Breaking Clan Team.
On the back mountain of the The Pope's Palace, Bibi Dong was looking at Yun Yuan with a look of utter despair.
"Junior Brother, are you saying you've reached Soul King? I'm only at Rank 36. How is your Rank higher than mine, and your improvement so much faster? Heavens, this is truly unfair."
Hearing this, Yun Yuan chuckled and nodded.
Cultivating for less than two and a half years, he had risen from Soul Master to Soul King, and his cultivation speed going forward would not be too slow either.
However, for his fifth Soul Ring, he planned to wait until after this Spirit Master Tournament to obtain it.
The Spirit Master Tournament finals were coming soon. At that time, he still had to take Bibi Dong to dominate the field.
If obtaining the Soul Ring took too long, the three ten-thousand-year Soul Bones for the champions would be taken by other forces.
"By the way, Senior Sister, your combat training for today hasn't been completed yet. Let me, your Junior Brother, help you with your cultivation."
With that, Yun Yuan summoned his Martial Soul, the Atlas Spear, and looked at Bibi Dong with interest, signaling her to summon her Martial Soul.
But at this, Bibi Dong kept shaking her head with a face full of reluctance, and then began to change the subject.
"Junior Brother, it's been over two months of combat. My combat experience is definitely sufficient."
"Speaking of which, don't we need to practice seven-person team battles? Junior Brother, why have you been training me all this time? We need to hurry and practice seven-person team battles."
Mentioning the seven-person team battle, Bibi Dong finally had a reasonable excuse to avoid Yun Yuan's combat training. In these two months, she had been beaten into a state of self-doubt by her Junior Brother.
Yun Yuan hitting her was like an adult hitting a three-year-old child, effortless.
But to her surprise, Yun Yuan's next sentence left her completely stunned.
"Senior Sister, Teacher hasn't told you about the team Spirit Hall is sending yet, has he? For these finals, only the two of us will be taking the field."
After hearing Yun Yuan's explanation, Bibi Dong pointed her finger back and forth between herself and Yun Yuan, her eyes wide with disbelief.
"Just... just the two of us?"
Facing Bibi Dong's inquiry, Yun Yuan nodded and then explained the reason to her.
"Senior Sister, this is Teacher's decision. Also, do you not believe in my strength?"
"Don't worry, I will definitely carry you to victory. I could have swept the entire competition by myself, but since you are the Holy Maiden, I can only reluctantly carry you. Just sit tight."
Yun Yuan's teasing made Bibi Dong's face instantly flush red. She wasn't some carry-on dog; she was a Soul Elder and could help Yun Yuan a lot, okay?
"Junior Brother, you look down on me. I've decided, in this Spirit Master Tournament, I will definitely make you see me in a new light."
After making up her mind inwardly, Bibi Dong no longer resisted Yun Yuan's combat training. The Eight Spider Lances appeared behind her, and the Death Spider Emperor possessed her, as she wanted to properly temper her combat abilities.
"Good, Senior Sister, I look forward to your performance in the Spirit Master Tournament."
"But for now, Senior Sister, you should properly try my long spear."
