NOVEL ONLINE FREE Chapter 107: Confidence
Bibi Dong sneered, "A mere envoy from the Star Luo Empire dares to shout at me! Throw him out!"
"Yes, Your Holiness the Pope!"
When Jiang Xiaofeng learned about the deaths of the Star Luo Royal Team members, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Bibi Dong is really something… I didn't say I couldn't beat them. Yet, she went and killed them all. I wanted to test our team's true strength against them. Now, I'll have to find another team. I wonder who I'll face in the finals.
Hu Liena was overjoyed upon hearing the news, leaping with excitement.
"Awesome, Feng-ge! The Star Luo Royal Team members are all dead. No one can stop us from winning the championship now!"
Jiang Xiaofeng shook his head helplessly. "So, you're admitting you couldn't beat them?"
Hu Liena pouted, saying, "I just thought it would be less troublesome. Besides, when have I ever been afraid of them? Even if their soul power is all above level 55, with me here, none of them will be able to do anything!"
Jiang Xiaofeng nodded. That was indeed the case. Adding in her and Xie Yue's martial soul fusion skill, combined with Hu Liena's second soul skill, it was unlikely any team could break through that defense!
It was just that Jiang Xiaofeng felt he was missing an opponent.
News of the Star Luo Royal Team's complete annihilation quickly spread throughout the entire Douluo Continent.
The soul masters of Douluo Continent were all in an uproar. The finals of the Soul Master Tournament were fast approaching, and at this critical juncture, all the members of the Star Luo Royal Team had died. This was definitely explosive news.
Moreover, the Star Luo Royal Team was the top favorite to win this competition. After all, just a few days ago, their team's information had been updated, and all the soul master members were above level 55 in soul power.
With that kind of strength, they were practically guaranteed to win. Even the Spirit Hall's strength probably couldn't match theirs.
"Who do you think did this?"
"Who else could have done it? It was the Star Luo Royal Team. Their captain is even the Star Luo Empire's prince, Dai Weisi. Only Spirit Hall would dare to touch royalty!"
"Shh, keep your voice down. Don't you want to live?"
"I heard the Star Luo Empire's envoy was thrown out of Spirit Hall. Apparently, they offended Pope Bibi Dong!"
"Isn't that obvious? Who is Bibi Dong? She's the only female Pope Spirit Hall has had in ages. Don't you all know her capabilities?"
"I don't know about her capabilities, but a woman that beautiful becoming Pope can't be a simple situation!"
Others nodded in agreement. This wasn't an isolated incident; discussions about the event were spreading throughout the Douluo Continent.
When the various teams arrived at Spirit City, Tang San and his teacher, Yu Xiaogang, finally met up.
Before Tang San and Yu Xiaogang could exchange a word, Liu Erlong, Yu Xiaogang's wife, rushed over and dragged Yu Xiaogang away.
"Yu Xiaogang, how many times have I warned you? Stop seeing that woman! You never listen. Why did you go see her again? Do you want to make me angry?"
Yu Xiaogang said with a bitter expression, "I went to see her for Tang San's sake. But that Bibi Dong is completely unyielding, she wouldn't say anything! She even confiscated my elder token!"
Liu Erlong frowned. In her imagination, this was completely impossible.
"What happened? Logically, she should fulfill your normal requests. Even though I don't like it, I'd still agree for Xiaoshan's sake!"
Yu Xiaogang shook his head and sighed, "Because of her disciple, Jiang Xiaofeng!"
"Jiang Xiaofeng, the captain of the Fengshen Team, Bibi Dong's disciple?"
Yu Xiaogang nodded, his expression turning sour as he thought of Jiang Xiaofeng ruining his plans!
"What does this have to do with her disciple?"
Yu Xiaogang sneered, "You probably don't know this, but it seems she has a complicated relationship with her disciple. Otherwise, she wouldn't have rejected me so easily."
"I see. Looks like you're out of luck this lifetime. You might as well just stick with me!"
In Liu Erlong's world, Yu Xiaogang was everything. So, upon learning that Bibi Dong had someone else, she didn't overthink it. She only knew that no one would be vying for her man anymore.
Not long after, Yu Xiaogang and Tang San held a meeting.
"Although we took first place in the Heaven Dou Empire, the team we're facing is the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation. They are all recipients of the Purple Record Medal, meaning they are the most talented generation!"
"Originally, we had two opponents: Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Royal Team. But now, the Star Luo Royal Team has been eliminated. Therefore, we only have one opponent: Spirit Hall!"
Tang San said with conviction, "If we are just fighting against the Spirit Hall team, we still have a very good chance of winning the championship. After all, we have fought them before, and Teacher, you have also studied their previous battles!"
Yu Xiaogang nodded. Although they weren't very clear about Jiang Xiaofeng's abilities, they had already studied the abilities of the other members quite extensively.
"However, we still can't be careless. You haven't mastered the Seven-in-One Fusion Skill yet. Try to use it as little as possible during the battles. Don't use it unless absolutely necessary, understand?"
"Understood, teacher. I think no team should force us to use the Seven-in-One Fusion Skill. After all, that heaven-defying skill... even Jiang Xiaofeng probably couldn't withstand it!"
Yu Xiaogang nodded. This was a certainty. After all, he was very confident in his research, except for that Jiang Xiaofeng.
Now that his disciple, Tang San, also had a ten-thousand-year soul ring for his fourth soul ring, he didn't think his disciple would be weaker than Jiang Xiaofeng. Although there was a difference in soul power level, their ages were a factor. His disciple was younger and had more room to grow.
As a grand event on the Douluo Continent, the finals of this Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament had invited many sects and major forces to observe.
The semi-finals were about to begin soon, and all the teams had already gone to Spirit Hall to report.
The top three teams from each empire could advance to the finals, so there were a total of seven teams, including Spirit Hall. However, the Star Luo Royal Team had been completely wiped out, so there were only six teams left.
But the other two teams from the Star Luo Empire had withdrawn from the competition due to attacks and would only be present as spectator teams.
In the end, only four teams remained.
They were the Fengshen Team, dispatched by Spirit Hall.
The Royal Team of the Heaven Dou Empire.
The Windfire Academy Team.
And Tang San's Shrek Team.
The four teams would compete in a drawing to determine the matchups.
The winners would advance to the finals.
Today was the day of the draw and the first match. All four teams had gathered in front of the Spirit Hall's Pope's Palace.
