Chapter 323

Not long after Lin Feng returned to Heaven Dou City, Qing Yun and the other two also returned to Martial Spirit City.

They reported this matter to the Pope. After all, this was a big matter that concerned the entire Martial Spirit Hall. Even if they were from different factions, their goals were very similar.

However, this matter was just as Lin Feng had expected. The Pope didn't care at all.

What a joke. How could Bibi Dong care now?

On one hand, they didn't have enough manpower. On the other hand, the tournament was about to start. Their Martial Spirit Hall was the main organizer of the tournament. Bibi Dong couldn't ruin their own reputation.

In the end, this matter was left unsettled. The three of them could only suffer this loss.

White Ape Douluo was very angry. He was beaten the most miserably. However, just as Lin Feng said, he couldn't represent the Martial Spirit Hall alone.

Start a war?

He wasn't worthy!

.....

The atmosphere in Heaven Dou City was very lively. The Continental Elite Academy Tournament was a grand event.

Many people from duchies and kingdoms came to watch the tournament. Some factions also came to watch. If they liked someone, they would directly poach them.

Speaking of which, this tournament was a bit like a continental job fair.

Students who participated were usually those who were about to graduate. All the factions in the continent came to watch the tournament. Those who performed well would be recruited by some factions.

The last few most talented teams would be recruited by the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the Martial Spirit Hall.

This kind of grand event was very popular on the continent.

The tournament would officially start the day after tomorrow. During these two days, the Grandmaster had been analyzing the tournament for Tang San and the others.

He analyzed the teams, the tournament rules, the tournament format, and finally the Avengers.

The teams were the teams of the various academies. Currently, in the Grandmaster's eyes, other than the Avengers, the other teams weren't too good.

However, the Grandmaster also said that even if they were facing a team full of Soul Elders, they had to be vigilant and pay full attention.

Being weak didn't mean that they would definitely lose. What if they had unexpected moves?

The rules of the tournament were more relaxed. Each team had ten people. Seven of them were the main force and three were substitutes. The participants were required to be under the age of 25.

During the tournament, they had to avoid deliberately injuring their opponents. If they killed their opponents, they would be directly kicked out of the tournament.

During the tournament, team members weren't allowed to consume any medicine or food that wasn't made by a food-type soul master. Furthermore, the food had to be made by a plant-type soul master who was on stage.

In addition, they were not allowed to use hidden weapons or other external weapons. Everyone could only use their own Martial Souls.

This sort of competition was very fair, and it was also very safe. Under the limitations of one's abilities, each soul master's superb techniques could be displayed.

That was the rules of the competition. Next was the competition format.

This year's competition was divided into three stages: the preliminaries, the promotion stage, and the finals.

It was similar to the LOL competitions in his previous life. There were bubble matches, qualifiers, knockouts, finals, and finals.

The competition was split into two large regions, Heaven Dou and Star Luo. Each large region was further divided into several smaller regions according to the situation within the empire.

The Heaven Dou Empire had a total of six sub-regions, four kingdoms and one dukedom. Each of these five regions had a sub-region, and the last main sub-region was within Heaven Dou City.

Every competition zone had sixteen qualifying spots. One of the guaranteed spots was occupied by a team from the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

Originally, the Snowy Night Emperor wanted to give this spot to the Shrek Academy. However, it was only a thought, and he didn't give it away.

Apart from this guaranteed spot, the Heaven Dou Empire's six sub-regions would compete for these fifteen qualifying spots. As the main sub-region, the Heaven Dou Empire's main sub-region had five qualifying spots.

After that, these fifteen qualifying teams would compete in a ranking tournament in Heaven Dou City.

After determining the strength of each team, they would set off together and head to Martial Spirit City to participate in the finals.

When the time came, the entire continent's attention would be focused on Martial Spirit City. The final victor of this competition would be decided there!

That was the general format of the competition. There would be some slight differences in the flow of the competition, and sometimes there would be individual battles. However, these were all trivial matters.

Tang San and the others didn't think much about the competition format.

It didn't matter how complicated it was. In any case, as long as they kept winning, everything else didn't matter.

Grandmaster Tang originally thought that Shrek's Seven Monsters' strength was enough to crush all the previous teams.

There was no need to hide their strength in this competition. Their opponents didn't even have the qualifications to use their full strength. All they had to do was crush them.

However, after the Avengers joined the competition, this idea immediately changed.

In the face of such experts, Grandmaster Tang felt that it was better to hide their strength.

They couldn't reveal too much of their strength and tactics. Otherwise, if their opponents saw them and targeted them, they would be in a bad situation.

Thus, Grandmaster Tang decided to use a conservative strategy for this competition.

All seven of them could participate, but they couldn't use their full strength. At most, they could only use half of their strength. If they defeated other teams, they couldn't win easily. They had to pretend to win with difficulty.

If they met the Avengers, they had to admit defeat. They didn't want to reveal their strength.

In any case, the Heaven Dou Empire's Seven Monsters only had five qualifying spots. Grandmaster Tang only needed to obtain one of them. There was no need to compete.

Even in the top fifteen, they didn't need to display too much of their strength. They just needed to hide it well.

In any case, as long as they showed up, they would be able to enter the finals. They didn't need to care about anything else. They just needed to display their true strength in the finals.

Furthermore, Grandmaster Tang guessed that the Martial Spirit Hall's team should be very strong. They had to be careful.

If they were weak, everyone would focus on the Avengers and the Martial Spirit Hall. That would be the best result for Shrek Academy.

The last analysis of the Avengers couldn't be considered an analysis because Grandmaster Tang had already done it. Now that the competition was about to begin, he was just summarizing it.

More importantly, they needed to gather information during the competition. They needed to see how the Avengers fought.

The more they revealed, the more information Grandmaster Tang and the others would get. This way, they would have a greater chance of winning in the future.

If the Avengers changed their fierce fighting style and chose to hide their strength, it would be difficult for them because they wouldn't be able to gather any information.

However, Grandmaster Tang and the others still had an advantage. Although Shrek's Seven Monsters had a lot of attention, they were still inferior to the Avengers.

As long as they kept a low profile, they would be able to catch them off guard.
