Douluo: The True Eye
#58 - End of round robin
After Shen Ce was mentally eroded and controlled by Huo Yuhao, Bei Bei and Jiang Nannan, the two Soul Grandmasters, immediately returned to provide support and launched a cruel siege against him.
As a Power Attack System Tool Soul King, although Shen Ce wore a Soul Guidance Device Inner Armor, he couldn't enhance his body strength through Martial Soul Fusion like Beast Martial Soul Soul Masters.
Moreover, after being controlled by Huo Yuhao, the sealing methods engraved on his Soul Guidance Device Inner Armor couldn't be activated on their own. Furthermore, Jiang Nannan's fighting style was mainly based on grappling techniques, so the defensive strength of the Soul Guidance Inner Armor itself couldn't be utilized.
However, due to the difference in Soul Power between the two sides, Jiang Nannan and Bei Bei, after considering the situation, didn't entangle with him too much. Instead, taking advantage of the unknown effects of the mental erosion, they directly knocked Shen Ce off the competition stage.
Shen Ce only vaguely regained his senses after falling off the stage, and for a long time, he couldn't accept the reality of being inexplicably eliminated.
And after Shen Ce, the strongest, fell, the others from the Qianling Academy naturally had no ability to resist in front of the Shrek group.
Because there was only Shen Ce, a Power Attack System Soul Master, in the team, all the Martial Soul configurations were to ensure that Shen Ce's output could be maximized.
And their own output methods were insufficient, so the others from the Qianling Academy, even when joining forces, couldn't break through Xu Sanshi's defense until they were defeated.
As the referee announced Shrek Academy's victory in this team battle, the first match of the second round of the cycle competition finally came to an end.
For Qianling Academy, although they were defeated, their losses were not serious. In the subsequent group matches, if there were no accidents, they still had a chance to fight for a spot to advance.
And in the following matches, apart from Qianling Academy, which had a special lineup and a 'Six Protecting One' strategy...
...the most threatening in the cycle competition was Zhengtian Academy, an old-brand academy from the Tianhun Empire, which possessed a lineup of three Soul Kings.
However, times have changed. This time's competition was different from the previous battles, where only the reserve team members were responsible for the difficult confrontation.
Because of the time, Ling Luochen and Xixi from the main team had almost recovered their states. When facing strong opponents, these two Shrek Academy main team members were responsible for fighting.
In the two-two-three match schedule, Xixi and Ling Luochen formed a group, and Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi formed a group. With their combined efforts...
...Zhengtian Academy didn't even have a chance to last until the third three-on-three battle, and was directly taken down in the first two battles.
Moreover, due to the cooperation between Xixi and Ling Luochen, the two strongest Soul Kings on the opposing side were seriously injured. If there were no accidents, they would probably have some difficulty participating in this competition.
This was also Shrek Academy's ancestral underhanded fighting style. After all, Zhengtian Academy's strength was not weak. Compared to the easier-to-deal-with Qianling Academy and other academies, solving them first was more in line with Shrek Academy's current tactical arrangements of lacking troops and generals.
And in the cycle competition group that Shrek Academy participated in, apart from Zhengtian Academy in the remaining schedule...
...the strengths of the other academies were uneven and could not be considered strong, even not as good as Qianling Academy in the first match.
Moreover, because they didn't draw lots to select a team battle, Huo Yuhao didn't have a chance to play in the next few battles.
Ling Luochen and Xixi, who had almost recovered from their injuries, directly used it as a warm-up for recovery, and took Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan, these three Soul Grandmasters, to directly solve it.
However, because the schedule was relatively easy, the situation in the original work, where Wang Yan described the tragic situation of the main team and used the method of selling misery to win the empathy and admiration of the audience, thereby improving and maintaining the reputation of Shrek Academy, naturally did not occur.
Huo Yuhao was naturally happy to be idle. Now that the Golden Life Seed had been obtained, and the most important purpose of coming to Xingluo City had been achieved...
...now that his Soul Power cultivation had also fallen into a bottleneck at level 30, Huo Yuhao spent most of his time in the viewing area, taking materials through the competitions of various forces.
He used the Eye of Reality to record and collect the composition models of various Martial Souls and the composition methods of Soul Skills of the participants.
The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition is a grand event that attracts worldwide attention. Although the rules state that only major advanced Soul Master Academies and advanced Soul Guidance Device Academies are allowed to participate...
...in reality, many hidden sects and family forces will also send out the younger generation of disciples among them, let these outstanding geniuses of their own sect put on a layer of student skin, and send them to participate.
Some so-called 'academies' are simply subordinate institutions of a hidden sect or family force, used to screen peripheral fresh blood, thereby serving as a breeding ground for providing talents to the sect and family.
And among these academies, naturally only the core disciples of these hidden sects or family forces can stand out. Other foreign students are only used as substitutes.
And the purpose of doing this is also very simple. After all, those who can appear in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition are all geniuses of the younger generation, the proud children of heaven of various forces in this generation.
Participating in this grand event of the Soul Master world is extremely good for the younger generation to expand their social circles or broaden their horizons.
Moreover, this can also play a role in tempering those sect disciples who are usually in hidden sects and do not communicate with the outside world.
After all, there is always someone better. After being proud of the crowd in the sect, they can truly recognize their own weight after truly showing their faces in front of their peers, thereby calming down, shedding their pride, and becoming the backbone of the sect and family.
And it is precisely under such a background that those advanced Martial Souls and special Soul Skill configurations that would normally rarely appear outside will be displayed.
After all, powerful Martial Souls, apart from some special mutations, are mostly cultivated by systematic sects and families.
The choice of each Soul Ring is the result of countless trials and errors by predecessors. How to match them is more suitable, and how to combine them can unleash the strongest effect.
These systematic Martial Soul configurations have also greatly expanded Huo Yuhao's knowledge reserve, saving Huo Yuhao a lot of time to rely on himself to carry out combination trials and errors.
Through the deduction and calculation of mental power, although it would take some extra time, the effects that the soul masters' hidden soul skills could form, and how they were composed and operated, were eventually deduced by Huo Yuhao.
The gains Huo Yuhao obtained during these few days were more than he would have gained in a year at Shrek Academy.
Although this was partly because Huo Yuhao had previously only been able to mingle in the outer court, and his own strength was not strong enough.
However, in the short rest period after the end of the cycle competition, what followed was a new round of tense and exciting sixteen-into-eight elimination matches.
And on the eve of the eliminationčµ›, in addition to the original rest time, a top auction was also held in Star Luo City.
It's just that in the original work, a piece of Ice Jade Scorpion soul bone suitable for the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion martial soul and containing the Ice Burst technique appeared in this top auction.
Moreover, the God Sealing Platform, a level-nine soul tool that sealed the Snow Emperor, also appeared at the same time.
However, this time Huo Yuhao did not go to the far north to subdue the Ice Emperor as his martial soul during the previous vacation.
In this case, the Ice Emperor should also be protecting the Snow Emperor, and the Snow Emperor with the Ice Emperor's protection would naturally not be captured by human soul tool masters at the fragile moment of transformation.
Moreover, in the original work, there were many doubts about the Snow Emperor being captured by humans during the transformation stage, after all, the place where the Snow Emperor transformed was also in the depths of the far north.
Although the Ice Sky Snow Woman is the only Snow Emperor in the entire far north, and there are generally no other soul beast groups inhabiting the Snow Emperor's territory.
However, outside the snowfield is the habitat of the two ferocious beasts, the Ice Emperor and the Titan Snow Demon King, and there is also a hidden ferocious beast, the Ice Bear King, that is unknown.
It is undoubtedly difficult to bypass the territories of these three without stimulating them.
Unless, in the original work, this level-nine soul tool master happened to enter the core of the far north from the territory of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion group that had lost its leader.
And in this way, it can also correspond to why a soul bone from the Ice Jade Scorpion group in the far north would appear in this top auction.
It's just that in this case, one obtained the Ice Jade Scorpion's soul bone, and then happened to encounter the Snow Emperor in the transformation period.
Moreover, in a coincidental situation, one happened to find the place where the Snow Emperor felt safe enough to retreat and transform alone, even if she didn't look for the Ice Bear King to protect her.
Of course, it is also possible that the Snow Emperor did not want to find the Ice Bear King, but because of the Ice Emperor's loss of contact, if there was no Ice Bear King to balance things, the Titan Snow Demon King, who was already harboring ulterior motives, might become restless, so the Ice Bear King was needed to mediate outside.
And it was precisely because of the accumulation of various factors that led to the Snow Emperor's capture, but these situations were too coincidental.
Although it is not incomprehensible, after all, all the gains of this unknown soul tool master eventually fell into the hands of the original owner, Huo Yuhao.
And Huo Yuhao, as the child of destiny originally chosen by Douluo Star, cannot be said to be too excessive to enjoy this treatment.
However, Huo Yuhao is now very curious about this top auction.
He wondered what kind of treasures could appear at this top auction after losing the Ice Jade Scorpion's soul bone and the Snow Emperor's embryo.
And whether the newly appeared treasures would be suitable for him now? After all, the development route he has chosen now is completely different from Huo Yuhao's in the original work.
Under the leadership of Wang Yan, after dinner, the group came to the Starlight Auction House.
What was different from before was that the reception maid was replaced by Qingya, the auctioneer from the previous auction.
Obviously, it was because of Shrek Academy behind Wang Yan that the Starlight Auction House provided special services.
After all, compared to ordinary maids, the well-trained auctioneer is much better in terms of quality.
Under Qingya's leadership, the group came to Auction Hall No. 1.
Compared to the auction halls seen before, the largest Auction Hall No. 1 of the Starlight Auction House was undoubtedly much more luxurious.
Various precious woods, jade stones, and decorations piled up a sense of luxury, all said to be things that, although they cannot provide benefits for soul master cultivation, are priceless on the market.
And in addition to these, what is used for display is a customized soul tool, a light guide screen.
This is a soul tool produced in the Sun Moon Empire, used for people's livelihood, although the grade is not high, but it does not need to consume soul power to activate, it has already reached the forefront of various countries on the continent.
It's just that what is used to replace energy is a kind of ore that naturally contains weak energy, and this soul tool only adjusted the power supply route.
Therefore, the overall structure does not have much reference value, it can only be said that this concept is still too immature, after all, the main research direction of the Sun Moon Empire is still various types of soul tools used for war.
Just as Wang Yan was being played by the auctioneer Qingya's tea-like words, the auction finally officially began.
With the emergence of the golden light of the soul tool light screen, the soft golden light attracted everyone's attention.
Then, under the introduction of Princess Xu Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire, who was also the auctioneer of this top auction, one precious lot after another was bid up to high prices by the crowd.
Gold soul coins flowed like water, which was staggering.
However, for Huo Yuhao, most of the things exhibited at this top auction were of little value to him.
After all, his current strength is too weak, what use would it be to get an eighth-level or ninth-level soul tool?
He cannot use it with his soul power, and when Huo Yuhao's soul power can control these advanced soul tools.
With Huo Yuhao's strength, if needed, he can naturally find better replacements.
Most of the auction items that can be auctioned may be of good quality, or can be called rare treasures in the eyes of ignorant people.
But in the eyes of some big forces, that's all, the real priceless treasures will not appear in the auction house, at most they will only circulate at the top of the major forces.
And things like the God Sealing Platform, which contained the Snow Emperor's embryo, can only be said that its original purpose was for the Star Luo Emperor to use to fish and harm the Sun Moon Empire.
Otherwise, this kind of valuable thing, even if it rots in the national treasury, it is impossible to leak out.
Soon, after a set of fixed-installation soul tool shells was auctioned off, the next lot was originally a soul bone produced from an Ice Jade Scorpion, carrying the Ice Burst technique, but this time...
