After robbing the second Heaven Dou team, he earned about a thousand gold soul coins. It was soso and barely satisfactory.
Fang Xuan muttered and waved goodbye to everyone.
He prepared to leave the Heaven Dou Academy's resting area and harass the other teams.
"Brother, why don't you stay and help us fight a few rounds?"
At this moment, Ye Liangchen looked at Fang Xuan expectantly and said excitedly.
"Haha, what a joke. I'm a man who made it to the finals. I don't want to fight in the preliminaries. It's degrading"
Fang Xuan spread his hands and rejected Ye Liangchen's suggestion mercilessly.
"Brother, it's a pity that you don't want to participate." Long Aotian added, "Speaking of which, you get a lot of money if you win a round. It's much more than the money we have on us."
"What did you say? Are we getting money for fighting in the preliminaries? Are you kidding?" Fang Xuan was energized.
"Yes, pay"
Long Aotian explained seriously, "There's a prize for every round of the Continental Elite Academy Tournament, and it's very generous. Every time you win a preliminary round, you'll get five hundred gold soul coins. If you stand out in the preliminary round and enter the promotion round, you'll get an additional three thousand gold soul coins. Finally, if you enter the finals, the empire will bestow the title of Baron on every member of your team and give them a thousand gold soul coins each"
Five hundred gold soul coins for a preliminary round.
Three thousand gold soul coins for the promotion round.
One thousand gold soul coins for each person in the finals.
Fang Xuan's eyes turned red. He stared at Long Aotian and the others and said resolutely, "I'll help you fight in the competition"
Everyone was speechless.
Didn't you say that you didn't want to fight in the preliminaries because it was degrading? Why did you change your mind in the blink of an eye?
Heaven Dou's second team members were depressed.
They thought to themselves, As expected of our Maestro. He's got a personality.
"How disappointing"
Dai 'er had always disliked Fang Xuan. Now that he had changed his mind, she rolled her eyes and looked at him with disdain.
'Damn it, I didn't even get a single gold soul coin for someone like me who directly ascended to the finals. That Emperor is too stingy …'
Fang Xuan silently criticized Xue Ye for being stingy. He was determined to bring Huang Dou's second team into the finals.
'Everything is for money … Bah
For his dreams.'
…
The qualifiers for the Soul Master Tournament were in full swing.
Twenty-eight battle teams had to go through a total of twenty-seven rounds of competition, and the top five would be selected to enter the promotion competition and the finals.
The preliminaries this time could be said to be a gathering of experts. In addition to the famous Five Elements Academy, there was also the new dark horse Shrek Academy. They all had wonderful performances in the preliminaries and had not tasted a single defeat so far, allowing the audience to feast their eyes.
Compared to these six teams, Heaven Dou's second team, which had lost their first match, seemed to be overshadowed. Their popularity and morale had withered. If not for the fact that Heaven Dou's second team was from the Empire's number-one academy, Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, no one would have noticed them.
This was because the Five Elements Academy and Shrek Academy each had at least one Soul Ancestor above Rank 40. Some even had three or four Soul Ancestors.
However, Heaven Dou's second team's strongest team leader, Ye Liangchen, was only Ranked 39 and a three-ringed Soul Elder. Although he carried the name of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, his strength was still far from the other six academies. They weren't even on the same level.
Many people guessed that it would be difficult for Heave. Dou's second team to pass the preliminaries in this year's Soul Master Tournament.
On the third day of the preliminaries, there was the final match.
The Blazing Battle Team vs. Heaven Dou's second team.
The audience's interest was waning. Some people were even yawning. It was obvious that they weren't interested in today's final match.
Among the five elemental academies, the Blazing Fire Academy was one of the best. The seven official team members all had soul powers above Rank 39. The captain and vice-captain of the team, Huo Wushuang, and Huo Wu, had soul powers as high as Rank 42 and Rank 43 respectively.
With two Soul Ancestors and a group of Rank 39 Soul Elders, the Blazing Battle Team's strength was enough to sweep away the majority of the teams. The number of academies that could fight against the Blazing Battle team could be counted on one hand.
Heaven Dou's second team's captain, Ye Liangchen, was only Rank 39, which was the same level as the lowest-ranked member of the Blazing Battle Team. The rest of the team members were around Rank 35 and 36, so their strength was inferior.
When the two teams were compared, Heaven Dou's second team was weaker than the Blazing Battle Team. The audience didn't have any hope for Heaven Dou's second team.
Today's Elite Soul Master Tournament was filled with experts. Heaven Dou's second team could only serve as a foil …
On the central stage, the Blazing Battle Team and Heaven Dou's second team went up one after another.
"Huo Wushuang, captain of the Blazing Battle Team.
Martial soul: Fire Dragon. Rank 42 Assault System Battle Soul Master. Please give me your guidance"
The red-haired leader of the Blazing Battle Team took a step forward. His sharp eyes swept across Ye Liangchen and the other members of Huang Dou's second team.
He was nine feet tall and had a strong body. His red uniform and hair made him look like a ball of fire that was burning crazily. He released a scorching pressure, which made the members of Heaven Dou's second team change their expressions.
"Ye Liangchen, captain of Heaven Dou's second team.
Martial soul: Demon Wolf. Rank 39 Assault System Battle Soul Master. Please give me your guidance"
Ye Liangchen's expression was serious. He could feel a terrifying pressure from Huo Wushuang. He was even stronger than Shrek's Soul Ancestor, Dai Mubai.
However, as the captain of the Blazing Battle Team, even If he knew that he couldn't defeat Huo Wushuang, he couldn't show any cowardice. This matter concerned the reputation of the Team and the Academy.
"Brother, why are you wasting your breath on this bunch of trash? Let's just finish them off"
At the same time, a red-haired beauty with a fiery figure walked out from the team. She looked a little impatient and looked at Heaven Dou's second team with disdain.
She thought that they were a bunch of good-for-nothings from an aristocratic academy and didn't put them in her eyes at all.
She was a beautiful girl who was about seventeen or eighteen years old. Her fiery red hair hung down to her waist. Her fiery figure and slender waist formed a perfect contrast. It made one's blood boil just by looking at her.
She was the vice-captain of the Blazing Battle Team, Huo Wushuang's younger sister, Huo Wu. She was a Rank 43 Assault System Battle Soul Master. In terms of soul power and talent, she was even better than her brother, Huo Wushuang.
Huo Wu pinched her devilish waist and looked at Ye Liangchen's group with disdain. She snorted and said arrogantly, "A bunch of trash. The Heaven Dou Academy, the number one academy in the empire, is only so-so"
"You!!"
After hearing Huo Wu's mockery, the members of Heaven Dou's second team were enraged. However, they were afraid of Huo Wu's strength and didn't dare to say anything.
Although she was extremely arrogant, Huo Wu did have the right to be arrogant. Her Rank 43 soul power gave her absolute strength, and she could look down on all the competitors in the preliminary round. There were hundreds of competitors present, but only a handful of them were qualified to fight her.
Heaven Dou's second team didn't have the strength to do so.
"Both teams, line up and bow"
Under the guidance of the referee, the Blazing Battle Team and Heaven Dou's second team bowed politely.
After that, the competition began.
The two teams immediately started fighting.
The enthusiasm of the audience was ignited once again.
Thunderous applause and cheers reached the clouds.
However, the audience was busy admiring the competition. No one seemed to notice that there was a mysterious youth wrapped in a black robe at the back of Heaven Dou's second team. He was quietly standing where he was and didn't seem to fit in with the intense battle …
