Chapter 1259
No one would have thought that the reward for this set of soul bones had such an extraordinary origin.
The relationship between humans and soul beasts had only changed slightly during the Fifth Soul Beast World War.
After that, as humans recovered, soul masters slowly developed. Apart from the Extreme North, humans still had to kill soul beasts.
During that war, humans and soul beasts worked together to fight against the evil soul beasts.
But no matter what, the hundred-thousand-year soulbeasts that died in the war against human soul masters were sacrificed to the humans of that time, and some of them were preserved as soulbones as mementos.
Many people knew about this, but only those who were familiar with history knew about it.
These soul bones held great significance, as if they bore witness to that period of history. They were true cultural relics.
After hearing the Xi Douluo explain the origins of this set of soul bones, everyone was stunned.
They were stunned. Why would the Xi Douluo take out these soul bones that represented history as a reward?
Wasn't this an insult to the hundred-thousand-year soul beasts that fought alongside humans?
This was especially so for the silver-haired woman who was hiding in the crowd.
"Damn it!"
There was a man and a woman behind the silver-haired woman.
The man was dressed in black, and he was tall and sturdy. When he heard what the Xi Douluo said, his killing intent surged.
"This is a provocation! Master, these humans are definitely trying to provoke us! "
The man transmitted his voice with his spiritual power. His voice was cold.
"Back then, my master and I were both in hibernation to recover and cultivate. Although we didn't know much about the outside world, I still know about this matter. Back then, humans and soul beasts worked together to defend this continent against the tide of evil soul beasts. Although it was only a temporary alliance, we soul beasts definitely didn't stab them in the back. Although master and I couldn't wake up, I secretly instructed many soul beasts to work together with the humans. I didn't expect them to take out the soul bones that the soul beasts that died back then … "
The man's voice was a little irritable, but he was very calm. He just watched quietly.
However, it was clear that any soul beast would find it hard to accept such a thing.
"Brother Tian, calm down … I don't think things are that simple …"
The woman beside him seemed to sense the man's abnormal spiritual undulations. She transmitted her voice to him, "If humans really wanted to target us soul beasts, then the Soul Beast Protection Act wouldn't exist. Although humans are still killing soul beasts, the Soul Beast Protection Act is a barrier for us soul beasts. The Xi Douluo is most likely doing this for some reason... "
The woman wore a green dress and gave Di Tian a few glances.
Di Tian snorted coldly. His aura was so strong that the soul cultivators around him couldn't help but retreat.
The silver-haired woman stared at the Xi Douluo in front of the Hongyu Soul Battle Platform in the distance, but she didn't reply.
It had been a few days since they arrived in human society.
With their cultivation, they were able to disguise themselves very well.
Even a Titled Douluo wouldn't be able to discover them.
He had also witnessed the current human society and felt that it was very novel. He had also heard about this pinnacle competition.
Even though he had other motives, he still remembered that this tournament had gathered all the top soul masters in the continent.
In that case, the man from the Five Colored Sacred Mountain would definitely participate in the competition. If that was the case, then there was no need to look for him at all. He could directly participate in this competition, and they would definitely meet each other.
"The reason why she did that... is likely because she wanted to use it as a warning. Be on guard against the new Soul Demons and the Dark Demon Realm that has yet to be told to humans. "
The silver-haired woman pondered for a few seconds and said, "Those soul bones are very important. Furthermore, they were preserved from fighting against the evil soul beasts back then. She did that to let everyone understand this."
Di Tian was slightly stunned, but he immediately reacted.
"The Dark Demon Realm is far more dangerous than human soul masters, soul engineers from the Sun Moon Empire, and soul beasts. She used such a reward, gathered so many top soul masters, and used this set of soul bones as a warning. She must want these top soul masters to understand this so that they can fight against the Soul Demons together. "
The silver-haired woman's expression was indifferent, and her eyes flickered.
The woman's eyes lit up when she heard this.
"Brother Tian, I told you that there's something fishy about this."
Di Tian was silent for a few seconds before he snorted coldly. "Even so, she can't use those soul bones as a reward."
In fact...
Like the silver-haired woman, many of the top soul masters participating in the tournament could vaguely guess what was going on.
Those who could participate in the pinnacle competition were mostly experienced and older soul masters. In addition to the recent series of actions by the Federation, especially the sealing of many soul beast forests and the increasingly violent evil soul beasts, they could all guess what was going on.
On the stage...
The Xi Douluo's expression was solemn as he spoke.
"After those soul beasts died, they left behind some information for the humans who picked up these soul bones. If the calamity doesn't end, these soul bones can be used by human soul masters without any backlash. If the calamity is over, humans will have to pay a huge price if they want to absorb these soul bones... "
As he spoke, the Xi Douluo pointed into the air.
Instantly, six different lights shot out from the Xi Douluo's wrist.
They were six dazzling soul bones!
They were like armor as they floated in mid-air and exuded a ferocious aura!
The majestic aura and the flickering golden light showed how powerful this set of soul bones was!
A set of hundred-thousand-year soul bones!
Furthermore, they came from two soul beasts, so they were very complete!
"It's the Skyfall Tyrant Tiger and the Sea Protector Holy Lion. The head and the left and right arm bones belong to the Skyfall Tyrant Tiger. The torso and the left and right leg bones belong to the Holy Lion. These two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts are not simple. "
Wang Feng focused his gaze.
He could tell from their names.
In the history of soul beasts, these two soul beasts were very strong.
Compared to his subordinates, he wasn't much inferior.
If his underlings hadn't met him back then, they wouldn't have been as strong as these two soul beasts apart from the cowardly Kun.
"The rewards are very generous..."
Wang Fengxin said.
Just a reward of this level, coupled with his words, was enough to move many soul masters.
Even if they didn't guess it earlier, they roughly understood now!
Suddenly, the crowd was in an uproar.
Then, a thunderous sound rang out. It was Heavenly King Yu fanning the void and creating a sonic boom. Everyone quietened down.
"Alright, everyone. The Summit Competition this time is very important. I hope that everyone can perform well."
As a Rank 44 Titled Douluo, Heavenly King Yu's martial soul was an angel. He was a descendant of an angel, but not a six-winged angel.
"Next, the tournament will begin!"
Heavenly King Yu waved his hand.
Dazzling fireworks shot out from the soul tools around the plaza and filled the entire sky. It was a magnificent sight.
The competition in the morning was for the youth group. There were a total of thirty-six small teams from twelve different regions.
The twelve regions were from different regions in the three political regions.
Coincidentally, the first round of the tournament also included Huo Yuhao's team.
Apart from them, there were four other teams. They only had three matches.
There weren't that many matches.
These three teams didn't even use one-tenth of the Hongyu Soul-Fighting Arena.
On the first day of the Summit Tournament, there were close to a thousand matches. However, they all started at the same time.
The battles took place in an area of several hundred thousand square meters, including in the sky.
This was because most soul masters in the Summit Tournament could fly freely in the sky. If they had flying-type martial souls, most of them would compete in mid-air.
They could easily fly dozens of meters in the air. Hence, the area was very spacious.
The youth group's competition restricted the use of soul tools below Class 0.
The Summit Tournament restricted the use of soul tools below Class 2.
Class 3 soul tools were too powerful. Even if the Hongyu Soul-Fighting Arena could support them, the surrounding buildings couldn't.
However, there weren't many soul engineers in the Federation. They couldn't use Class 3 soul tools either.
Basically, soul masters were the main force.
The youth group represented the hope of the younger generation in the world of soul masters.
This year's Shrek team had some tricks up their sleeves.
Shrek's team, led by Ma Xiaotao, ranged from Rank 15 to Rank 85. They had all sorts of strange teams, and were all soul charmers.
They were also the only team formed by soul charmers.
There were many things to watch.
Their opponent was a team from the Star Luo Political District that was ranked second in their district.
Actually, Wang Feng didn't have much doubt about how far Huo Yuhao's team could go.
They would definitely win the championship, and there wouldn't be much suspense.
The reason was simple. Soul charmers each had at least one soul-bonded beast.
Soul-Bonded beasts also had their own soul skills. On average, they had one more soul skill than any other team.
How were they going to fight?
This wasn't even mentioning the strength of the soul-bonded beasts.
Even if it was three against seven, they had a high chance of winning, let alone seven against seven.
Furthermore, Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, He Caitou, and Xiao Xiao had chosen their own soul-bonded beasts. They were very suitable for them.
There was no need to talk about their abilities.
Wang Feng didn't know what soul-bonded beasts Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi had.
However, the academy wouldn't randomly give them a soul-bonded beast.
"The Federation doesn't have any special rules regarding soul-bonded beasts. Obviously, they're secretly supporting them."
Wang Feng couldn't help but think, "They probably want to use this to spread the name of soul charmers across the continent … Otherwise, it's unfair for soul charmers to fight soul charmers. It's fine if it's just one or two matches. Huo Yuhao's team won first place in their region without any restrictions. This is enough to prove this point. "
In other words, this was what the Federation was secretly encouraging: If you can't beat them, join them!
It was hard to say what would happen in the next Youth Tournament.
However, this year's tournament was definitely going to be a tournament where the soul charlatans, led by Huo Yuhao and the rest, would shine brightly!
In fact, this was the case.
Wang Feng watched quietly.
Only four people were going up.
They were Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, Xiao Xiao, and Xu Sanshi.
Wang Feng looked from afar and realized that less than a year had passed.
However, they had all grown up a lot.
"Only four people are going up. These fellows seem to have some sense of fairness."
Wang Feng couldn't help but laugh.
The seven people on the other side were all above Rank 95 on average.
However, among them, only Xu Sanshi had broken through to Rank 95.
The rest were still around Rank 85. Huo Yuhao hadn't even reached Rank 85 yet.
"Aren't they a little too arrogant?"
Long asked curiously, "Although soul charmers are special and have the help of soul-bonded beasts, this is the final round, not the group stage. Only four people are going up? "
"They're probably thinking that with the addition of their soul-bonded beasts, it should be eight against seven, right?" Wang Feng said, "Eight against seven. Although their soul power ranks aren't too different, one more person should be fair."
"That's true. Let me see how strong these soul charmers are. Oh yes, I've seen one or two recordings of their battles in the lustre projection soul tool. It seems like this is the most number of people they've ever sent out. "Long seemed to recall something and was speechless.
In other words, in the group stage, Shrek's team usually sent out three people.
Wang Feng smiled and looked over as well.
Four people dared to play like this in the final round.
It wasn't simple.
At least, there were countless pairs of eyes watching them.
Soul charmers were a new profession. They had made a name for themselves in the group stage. Now, they were in Martial Spirit City, in the Hongyu Soul Duelling Arena.
They were facing the strongest soul masters and the strongest soul master teams from all over the Federation.
They knew what this meant.
Soon, the battle began.
The battle ended very quickly.
According to Wang Feng's calculations.
The battle took less than ten minutes.
What surprised Wang Feng was that these little fellows seemed to have figured out a set of fighting methods for Soul Renters.
Simply put, there was one word: style.
Because soul charmers had the help of soul-bonded beasts, the calculation of soul skills and the changes in their attributes would be much more complex.
This meant that there would be a huge change in their fighting style compared to before!
After the battle began.
Wang Feng saw it very clearly.
Huo Yuhao's method of fighting was rather interesting.
It was a special positional fighting style.
With Wang Dong's Flaming Sunflower as the core, it took root in the center and emitted a special heat, giving its surroundings a special boost.
Afterwards, Huo Yuhao summoned his Jade Shell Crystal Monster.
This kind of rare soul beast was a defense-type soul beast. Its strongest point was that it could reflect the opponent's attack.
The angle of this reflection was extremely tricky.
Different angles of attack could reflect different angles of attack, making it impossible for the opponent to guard against it.
Huo Yuhao made the Jade Shell Crystal Monster stand in front of the four of them and erect a huge shield.
The Flaming Sunflower was used to supplement the energy and increase the reflected attack.
In addition to the defense of Xu Sanshi's Xuanwu, it was unbreakable!
The most interesting thing was that Xu Sanshi's martial soul was an offense-type defense-type soul beast, the Thorny Tortoise.
Wang Feng was very familiar with this soul beast. The Xuanming Thorny Tortoise had dropped a Xuanming Armor soul bone.
This Stranglethorn Vale was a weakened version of the Xuanming Thorny Tortoise.
It was a soul beast that sacrificed its defense to grow countless thorns on its body.
The soul skill that this Thorny Tortoise used turned into a special Thorny Tortoise Shield!
Therefore, with the three soul beasts as the core and Xu Sanshi as the core, they formed three unbreakable shields!
They wrapped the three of them tightly.
At the same time, Wang Dong had powerful long-range attacking abilities. In addition, Xiao Xiao's Vajra Dragonhawk also had powerful attacking abilities.
This resulted in this special fighting style!
The four of them advanced slowly, like a moving fortress. It was very difficult for any attack to hurt them.
On the contrary, they could reflect attacks from multiple angles, add on their powerful defensive abilities, Xiao Xiao's restriction assistance, and Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Perception.
The seven people in front of them had no way of attacking. They could only be slowly closed in and defeated!
