Chapter 327

When Tang San and the others said that they were hiding their strength, it did not mean that they were madly suppressing themselves. Instead, it meant that they were displaying their normal strength and hiding their trump cards.

Soul bones, martial soul fusion skills, and seven-man combination skills were their trump cards. As long as they hid these, they could use the rest.

While they were discussing, the emcee on the high platform continued speaking.

"Next, let us invite the Palace Master of Heaven Dou City's Martial Soul Temple, Platinum Bishop Sacas, to draw lots for the first round of the preliminaries.

Today's draw will include the only match of the day. The second team of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy will fight against the team they've drawn! "

Sacas slowly rose to his feet after hearing the emcee's words. He walked in front of the emcee and drew lots from a special box.

There were a total of twenty-eight teams, and fourteen matches had to be drawn. Every time Sacas drew lots, the emcee would announce the matchups.

The other matches weren't that important. There were only three academies that the audience paid attention to. One was Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's second team, while the other two were Shrek Academy and Oakland Academy.

Then, a dramatic scene happened. The emcee shouted.

"The first round of the preliminaries, Heaven Dou Imperial Academy versus Shrek Academy!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it caused a heated discussion among the audience.

Interesting!

Shrek Academy actually met Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's second team on the first day. A clash between two strong teams. How interesting!

"Luckily, we didn't meet Oakland Academy. It would've been interesting if we did." Ning Rongrong sighed in relief.

"Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's second team?

I've never heard of them. I didn't think their first team was strong, so this second team must be even weaker. Let's end this quickly! "Dai Mubai said with a relaxed expression.

Their words were arrogant, but they had the right to be arrogant!

"Let's end this quickly so they won't dare to look down on us!" Xiao Wu was itching for action.

There were a total of twenty-eight teams, and they were lucky to meet Heaven Dou Academy's second team just in time for the opening ceremony.

Today, they would show the world the might of Shrek Academy. Even if they used less than half their strength, they would still be able to crush their opponents!

At this time, the emcee announced a few more academies, and finally, it was Oakland Academy's turn.

"The first round of the qualifiers, Oakland Academy versus Canghui Academy!"

At this time, Oakland Academy's information also appeared.

The Canghui Academy was not a very strong academy. Back then, in the town next to the Star Dou Great Forest, the tortoise soul king that Lin Feng had defeated with one punch was from the Canghui Academy.

They were standing in the middle of the round platform. At this moment, the faces of several contestants were slightly pale.

The Oakland Magic School was like a demon king. The seven members of the Avengers were practically locked in the championship. If they went up against them, they would simply be beaten.

The team leader, Shi Nian, sighed. "When the time comes, let's just admit defeat. Our first match is against the Oakland Academy. There's nothing we can do about it. It's not shameful to admit defeat. We just have to go all out in the following matches."

Encountering the Oakland Academy in the first match wasn't considered bad luck. This way, they wouldn't have to face them in the following matches.

If they could win all the remaining matches, they would have a very high chance of being in the top five.

At this moment, the people from the Canghui Academy could only hope.

However, things weren't that simple. Among the twenty-eight teams, the first tier was the Oakland Academy and Shrek Academy.

The second tier was the Blazing Fire Academy, Weaver Academy, Lightning Academy, Skywater Academy, Divine Wind Academy, and today's protagonist, the second team of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

The remaining teams, including the Canghui Academy, were all in the third tier.

Under these circumstances, it was simply too difficult for them to get into the top five.

Not long after, the lot drawing ended. The platinum bishop, Sacas, swept his gaze across the audience and said indifferently, "This seat swears on the honor of the Martial Spirit Temple that there is no fraud in this lot drawing!

Also, this seat will announce something here. Among the contestants, as long as they can enter the finals, they will have the opportunity to directly enter the Martial Spirit Temple. "

Sacas was so brazenly trying to steal their empire's soul masters in front of Xue Ye. This made Xue Ye's expression very gloomy, but he also felt a little helpless.

He couldn't ignore the threat of the Martial Spirit Temple. If a war broke out, they would be the ones to suffer.

Beside him, Ning Fengzhi's expression was also gloomy. However, the situation was like this, and they could only endure.

Not many people in the VIP stands saw the situation. After Sacas finished speaking, the audience didn't have much of a reaction. However, the soul masters in the stands were in an uproar!

The Martial Spirit Temple was an existence that was second only to the Pontiff's Palace and Douluo's Palace. In the entire continent, only the two empires had one each.

If a soul master joined a place like this, not only would they receive the best treatment, they would also have all sorts of measures to increase their cultivation speed, and the honor of the Martial Spirit Temple.

To ordinary soul masters, this was very attractive. Everyone was talking about it.

In the stands, Lin Feng smiled and thought to himself, This Martial Spirit Temple is really domineering.

Sacas' words didn't affect the soul masters sponsored by the large organizations, but there were many commoner soul masters in the twenty-eight academies.

What was the purpose of these people participating in this tournament?

Wasn't it to increase their competitiveness and enter a large organization?

Now that the Martial Spirit Temple had thrown out such a fragrant olive branch, they were all very excited. They were all fighting to get into the top five!

After Sacas returned to his seat, the host's voice rang out once more. "Very good. Everyone is very excited. Next, we will begin the first round of the qualifiers. Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's second team will be up against Shrek Academy!

"All participating academies, please leave the stage. The two academies participating in the tournament, please make your preparations. The tournament will officially begin in an hour!"

As the host's voice rang out, the various academies left the stage in an orderly manner and walked towards the resting area.

At this moment, the audience was still very excited. They were talking about the various academies, and the most talked about one was Oakland Academy.

There was no helping it. As a powerhouse, even if there wasn't a tournament today, it would still cause a lot of discussion!

Furthermore, the rules of the qualifiers were very simple. Every academy would have to fight a round!

In other words, the twenty-eight teams would have to fight a total of twenty-seven rounds. If they won a round, they would get one point. If they lost, they wouldn't get any points.

After the final round of the tournament, the five academies with the most points would qualify for the Heaven's Dou Division.

The rules were that simple!
