Just as Tang San was deep in thought, Grandmaster, with his hands behind his back, walked over once again. Facing the gazes of the Shrek Academy members, he spoke very seriously.
"The power of a Martial Soul True Body is far beyond what ordinary Soul Skills can achieve. This Heaven Dou Team is indeed very strong, even stronger than I expected, but so what!"
"Could they possibly defeat the true form of the number one weapon spirit in the world?"
"You don't need to think too much about this. These worries will only drain your energy. Put all your thoughts back on your mind. Just believe that Shrek is destined to become the champion!"
The master's trump card was a special seven-spirit fusion technique. Relying on Jiangzhu's healing scepter, he combined everyone's spirit power, allowing Tang San to use the seventh spirit skill, Spirit True Body, which could only be used by a Spirit Saint, ahead of schedule.
The power of the Clear Sky Hammer is known to everyone in the Soul Master world; even the former Pope was once defeated by the Clear Sky Douluo.
Yu Xiaogang didn't believe that Lu Yuan, a mere mortal, could remain unharmed under the Haotian Hammer.
"Teacher, you're right. We were worrying unnecessarily."
"The victory in the next match belongs to Shrek!"
As Tang San extended his hand, one Shrek Academy student after another immediately placed their hands together.
Their faces radiated confidence.
Meanwhile, at another location, where the Golden Generation was, they all displayed a somber yet resolute expression.
As geniuses, they were confident they wouldn't lose.
To be cowardly before even engaging in battle is not the style of a genius.
·······
The battle with the Kamikaze Squadron ended quickly under Dugu Yan's leadership.
With the conclusion of the Tiandou Academy's match, the remaining two matches began.
As expected, the winning teams were Shrek Team and Star Luo Royal Team.
Although Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Ice and Snow Drifting, was very strong, it ultimately suffered a regrettable defeat in front of Tang San, who had already reached the Soul King level.
Xingluo already had an advantage in Soul Masters, and after only a short time, the Netherworld White Tiger appeared on the arena.
With the appearance of the Netherworld White Tiger, the competition was almost completely ended by sheer force.
Finally, with the conclusion of the competition, the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament slowly came to an end.
In the end, only four teams remained: the Spirit Hall team, which was guaranteed a spot in the semifinals; the Shrek team, which was hailed as a dark horse; and the Heaven Dou and Star Luo teams.
The semi-finals will take place in three days!
Lu Yuan's Heaven Dou team will face the Spirit Hall team, which is known as the Golden Generation.
The Shrek team, hailed as a dark horse, will face the Star Luo team led by Davis.
With the announcement of the match, the atmosphere became excited once again.
·······
Outside the venue, Lu Yuan had just stepped out when he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Looking at Tang San, who was waiting there on his own initiative, a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
"Tang San, what are you planning to do?"
Lu Yuan looked at the person in front of him and spoke in a calm tone.
"Lu Yuan, do you still remember the bet we made back then?"
"Do you dare to bet with me again now?!"
2 PM at the latest
Chapter 103 Bibi Dong: Do you want to become my disciple?
(Brothers, I've been thinking, let's have the main character fight the Spirit Hall, and Tang San fight the Star Luo Sect.)
(This seems to make more sense!)
·······
"You want to gamble again?"
Lu Yuan discovered that Tang San seemed to be a complete gambler, a pure gambler who would gamble on anything.
"In the next match, Shrek Academy will defeat Star Luo Royal Academy. I hope we can fight with all our might in the finals!"
"If you lose, I want the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon that you took, and for you to kowtow to me and my teacher in front of all the Soul Masters in the world to beg for forgiveness."
Tang San stared intently at Lu Yuan, fearing that if he was dissatisfied with the bet, Lu Yuan would refuse outright.
He was prepared that if he was rejected, he would use words to provoke Lu Yuan and try to get him to make a bet.
The moonlit night over the Twenty-Four Bridges is no longer of much use to him now. What truly makes him want to fight Lu Yuan is the failure he suffered over the past year. Tang San, who has always felt that he is different from ordinary people, cannot accept such a defeat.
He wanted to prove to everyone that he was no weaker than Lu Yuan, and even stronger in terms of strength and talent.
"Fine, if you want to fight, I'm happy to oblige. But if you lose, you'll have to kneel properly in front of me."
Lu Yuan sneered and stated his demands directly.
"Hmph, agreeing to this bet is destined to be your biggest mistake. Just wait, I will make you kneel before me in complete submission."
Tang San left satisfied. With the Seven-Man Martial Soul Fusion Technique, he was certain he would not lose.
As for the Star Luo Royal Team, although they are powerful, they are not invincible.
·······
Watching Tang San leave, Lu Yuan's eyes remained completely unmoved.
With Tang San's current strength, he wouldn't be interested in him at all. Even if Tang San did pull out something unexpected, Lu Yuan was confident he could handle it.
Three days isn't a long time, but it felt incredibly long because everyone was filled with anticipation.
After three days, before the emcee could even warm things up, everyone started discussing the topic.
Some people are saying just how terrifying the strength of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation really is, while others are saying that Lu Yuan of the Heaven Dou Team has never shown his true strength.
Some people from the Star Luo Empire naturally spoke up, quite indignantly, about how powerful their Star Luo royal family's Netherworld White Tiger was.
Amid the discussion, the emcee arrived leisurely.
As the emcee warmed up the atmosphere, the atmosphere in the venue became increasingly enthusiastic.
But with the arrival of one person, everyone immediately fell completely silent from their frenzy.
After the silence, a deafening roar erupted!
A figure dressed in full regalia and holding a papal scepter slowly walked out of the papal palace!
This figure was none other than the legendary Pope Bibi Dong, and there were five other figures following behind her!
They are Ning Fengzhi, the current sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, whose soul power has exceeded level 80; Sword Douluo, whose strength has reached level 96; and Chrysanthemum and Ghost, two titled Douluos from the Spirit Hall.
But the last one was someone no one had expected.
This was a thin, white-haired old man, whose upright figure resembled a javelin. This was none other than Dugu Bo, the Poison Douluo whose strength had recently broken through to level ninety-four.
As Bibi Dong walked out of the Spirit Hall, everyone present immediately knelt down and prostrated themselves before her.
Lu Yuan also cupped his hands in greeting. He had no enmity with Bibi Dong now, and she was the current Pope of the Spirit Hall, so it was only right to show her some respect.
The members of the Tian Dou team also bowed to Bibi Dong along with Lu Yuan.
Among countless people, only the Shrek team stands out.
None of the Shrek team members bowed; they neither knelt nor performed a gesture similar to Lu Yuan's cupped hands.
Xiao Wu, who had somehow concealed her aura, glared fiercely at Bibi Dong, as if she were looking at her mother's killer.
Their presence quickly attracted the attention of some high-ranking members of the Spirit Hall.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo exchanged a glance, and instantly released their oppressive aura to lock onto Shrek Academy.
Under the deliberate targeting of the two Title Douluos, the faces of the Shrek Academy students turned pale.
Just as Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo were about to teach Shrek Academy another lesson, Pope Bibi Dong looked at the two of them with a strange expression.
His gaze was extremely indifferent, and there was even a hint of displeasure brewing within it.
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo turned pale upon being stared at like that by Bibi Dong. Two titled Douluos with strength reaching level 95 were being treated so casually.
Looking at the Shrek team, Bibi Dong's eyes revealed a hint of emotion.
Xiao Gang, are these the children you've proven to the mainland?
What an amazing talent!
After finishing her inner reflections, Bibi Dong did not speak, but instead turned her gaze back to Lu Yuan.
Sensing the slightly stagnant soul power within her body, Bibi Dong's gaze sharpened, her eyes becoming dark and unfathomable. Just as she had guessed, the child named Lu Yuan before her was the one who had suppressed her that day.
To have such soul power at such a young age? No wonder he is a genius chosen by the gods.
Even a thousand-foot snowflake would find it hard to compare.
"So you're Lu Yuan? Your talent is truly astonishing!"
"Would you like to join our Spirit Hall? I can personally take you as my disciple."
Bibi Dong still harbors ambitions. If she could take a genius like Lu Yuan under her wing, that would naturally be a good thing.
"His Holiness the Pope personally accepting disciples?"
"Hiss... Has Lu Yuan really become this outstanding?!"
"Wow, why wasn't I the one His Holiness the Pope taking on a disciple?"
"If His Holiness the Pope were to accept me as a disciple, I would gladly become the Pope and live in a palace!"
Bibi Dong's sudden proposal to take on disciples shocked everyone in the hall.
Even Dugu Bo, who had lost interest in everything since receiving the kiss of the snow-white swan, looked up slightly in surprise.
However, he quickly lowered his head again, because he already knew the final outcome.
"I may have to disappoint His Holiness the Pope, but to be honest, I already have a teacher."
"Although she does not possess the extraordinary soul power of Your Holiness the Pope, her assistance to me is impeccable."
"Therefore, please allow me to refuse your offer to become your disciple!"
Lu Yuan had never considered becoming Bibi Dong's apprentice, and besides, he didn't need a teacher for cultivation.
The help Bibi Dong provided him was really not much.
Chapter 104 Davis: You who can't even protect your fiancée are not worthy of inheriting the Star Luo Empire.
"Since that's the case, then let it be. Ye Cixin has taken on a good disciple, I'm really happy for her!" Bibi Dong said calmly, then looked away from Lu Yuan.
Despite being rejected by Lu Yuan in public, Bibi Dong showed no dissatisfaction on her face.
She was, after all, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall, so naturally she couldn't stoop to the level of a child who was less than a third of her age.
"Your Holiness is too kind. My teacher's help to me is even greater."
For Lu Yuan, Ye Cixin's help was truly invaluable, since he had obtained his medical skills and knowledge of immortal herbs from her.
Without knowledge of immortal herbs, even with the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye right in front of him and so many immortal herbs, he truly wouldn't know how to use them.
Bibi Dong nodded, then turned her gaze away from Lu Yuan.
With a slight raise of his hand, he gently used his soul power to help the teams on the battle arena to their feet.
Then, with a flick of her delicate hand, three soul bones radiating precious light floated directly in front of everyone.
"A soul bone! It's actually a soul bone!"
"Does His Holiness the Pope intend to offer three soul bones as a reward? How incredibly wealthy he is!"
"The Golden Generation, yes, this must be His Holiness the Pope's confidence in the Golden Generation!"
The appearance of the soul bone instantly sparked countless discussions.
Standing behind Bibi Dong, Chrysanthemum Douluo looked at the three soul bones with a hint of surprise, followed by a deep sense of envy in his eyes.
Despite being a Super Douluo, he still doesn't possess even a single soul bone.
