The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament's ranking matches weren't as lively as the qualifiers. It was to protect the soul master's privacy and safety. No audience was allowed to watch the ranking competition.
The ranking competition was still divided by the two empires. The thirty teams that passed the qualifiers would compete in their respective empires. As for the three teams that had already entered the finals, they would not participate in the ranking competition.
On the Heaven Dou Empire's side, including the five teams from the Heaven Dou City qualifiers, a total of fifteen teams had already completed the registration process in the morning, and gathered at the ranking competition location.
There were fewer teams, but those who could pass the qualifiers. But they were all the elites of the elites.
The ten teams from the five kingdoms and dukedoms that had passed the qualifiers had arrived earlier. They needed to familiarize themselves with the environment. At that time, they also brought many promises from their respective kingdoms or duchies. If they achieved good results, the rewards they could obtain would be even greater than emperor Xue Ye's promise.
After all, those kingdoms and duchies had an even greater desire for talent. Who wouldn't wish to have more powerful Spirit Masters in their hands?
During the war on the Douluo Continent, soul masters had long since become the decisive factor on the battlefield.
And the number of high level Spirit Masters was also the basis for measuring a power. It was precisely because of this that Spirit Hall's status was so transcendent that even the two great empires didn't dare to lightly offend them. He clearly knew that those kingdoms and duchies were secretly supported by Spirit Hall. He did not dare to say anything.
The Imperial Hunting Ground was located fifty kilometers southwest of Heaven Dou City. The hunting ground had a variety of terrain and a vast area. It was the hunting and training ground for the members of the royal family.
Normally, no civilians were allowed to approach this place. The 10,000 Royal Knights were responsible for patrolling and guarding. At the same time, they were also training here. Every three months, they would be rotated and trained to maintain their combat effectiveness.
The Imperial Knight Regiment was also the strongest force the Heaven Dou Imperial family had.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble and conflict, and also to avoid the strength of each academy entering the ranking competition being observed by other academies, all fifteen advanced Spirit Master academy teams entering the ranking competition were sent to the academy. They were arranged to rest in different places.
As for the ranking competition. The Heaven Dou imperial family was clearly prepared. The first thing they saw was the large Royal Knights.
The Heaven Dou Imperial Knight Corps all wore bright silver armor, this kind of thick plate armor had extremely strong defense, even their mounts were carefully selected, possessing a certain magical beast bloodline, this kind of horse itself didn't have any offensive ability.
However, they were extremely fast and carried a lot of weight. Coupled with their extraordinary endurance, they were always the best choice for cavalry.
The horse was also covered in armor. Coupled with the weight of the knight and the Radiant Armor, it did not affect the speed of this horse at all.
Once such a cavalry team charged, their power would be astonishing.
The Imperial Knight Regiment had always been an elite troop the Heaven Dou imperial family had devoted all their efforts to building, with a total of fifty thousand people, of which a hundred or more captains were all made up of Spirit Masters. This was also an extremely costly army, but its deterrence was also huge. At least the few great kingdoms and duchies under the Heaven Dou Empire's name wouldn't dare act rashly under its threat.
"Please show me your diary." Shrek Academy's group was stopped by the members of the Royal Knights. The so-called handwritten letter was the qualification certificate for advancement.
Flender handed the certificate to the other side, that silver armored knight with red tassels on his head immediately saluted everyone.
"Welcome, Shrek Academy's soul masters. I'm Heaven Dou Imperial Knight Regiment Third Company Captain Roxson, please follow me.”After he finished speaking, he did not mount his horse. Shrek Academy's group of more than ten people walked into the hunting grounds under the protection of fifty fully armed royal knights.
After climbing over a small hill, everyone's eyes suddenly opened up. What appeared in front of them was a vast grassland. The field of vision was wide, and it made people's mood release. It was indescribably comfortable.
On the grassland, a large number of military camps formed a circle. "The Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament's ranking competition will be held right in the middle of the camp. I can absolutely guarantee your safety and safety.”
Luo Xingchen's heart moved, thinking to himself that the Heaven Dou imperial family had put in a lot of effort. This ranking competition was held in the military camp, so the royal knights would undoubtedly become spectators. The Spirit Master showdown would inevitably have a positive impact on the royal knights.
It further stimulated their determination and fighting spirit to train hard.
Shrek Academy's group was brought to a large military camp. They were allocated a total of five barracks to rest. The barracks of the army were naturally not luxurious, but they were very clean.
It was obvious that they had been prepared before they came.
Before the ranking competition ended, Shrek Academy's group of fourteen would be staying here.
The ranking competition was also a round-robin system, but because the number of teams had decreased, the duration of the competition had also been reduced from one month to half a month. After that, they would rest for another half a month and hold the finals at the border between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire.
Roxson gave Flender a standard military salute, The ranking competition would officially begin tomorrow. At that time, there will be someone to lead you to the competition venue. There would be no opening ceremony for the ranking competition. The competition would begin directly. The outcome of the match would be jointly decided by the Empire and Spirit Hall. To show fairness."
"Thank you, General Roxson." Flender smiled in return. Roxson was flattered."I dare not. I will take my leave first." To be able to become the captain of the Imperial Knight Regiment's Third Company, he was naturally also a Spirit Master. However, he was only at rank 44. Facing an advanced Spirit Master academy's dean, he naturally felt admiration in his heart.
Flender very quickly distributed everyone's rooms. Liu Erlong and Xiao Wu took one, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing took one. He shared a room with Grandmaster. The remaining two rooms were given to Luo Xingchen, Tang San, Dai Mubai and the other male students.
Just as they settled down, the temporary residence welcomed two guests. If the arrival of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School master Ning Fengzhi was within Tang San's expectations, then, the other person who came with Ning Fengzhi was something he couldn't imagine.
The five living quarters were an independent academy book. Tang San had just put away his luggage and came to stretch his body in the academy book when he saw these two people arrive.
"Hello, Uncle Ning. Your Highness Taishu, why are you here?”
The person who came with Ning Fengzhi was none other than Heaven Dou Empire's Taishu, Xue Qinghe.
Xue Qinghe was wearing ordinary noble clothes, without any particularly luxurious clothing, feeling like an ordinary noble. Especially standing beside the elegant Ning Fengzhi, he was like a foil, not eye-catching.
If Tang San hadn't seen him before, he absolutely wouldn't have thought he had such a noble status.
Xue Qinghe had a gentle smile on his face." Brother Tang, aren't you here? This time, I'm fortunate to be here with my father to watch the ranking competition, so I came to see you." How was it? Are you adapting to this place? If you're not feeling well, I'll get someone to change your place.”
"No need for trouble, this place is already very good. Thank you for your concern, Your Highness Taishu."
"Brother Tang, you don't have to call me Taishu, Taishu." Xue Qinghe frowned. I'm older than you by a few years. If you don't mind, you can call me Big Brother Xue. How about I just call you by your name?"
Towards Xue Qinghe, Tang San still had some good feelings. Compared to his little brother Xue Beng, the two were simply worlds apart. Although Xue Qinghe was young, his shrewdness was deep. But no matter what, he gave off a very comfortable feeling on the surface.
Not only did he not have the slightest bit of Taishu's bookshelves, but his approachable feeling was also very easy to accept. Even though he clearly had the intention of recruiting Tang San, he didn't force him.
"Alright, I'll do it. Brother Xue. Then I'll call you that from now on. Please come in and sit." Tang San hastily called Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi to lead them to the barracks.
"We won't sit, we just came to take a look." Rongrong? I haven't seen this girl for a while, and I really miss her.”
"Daddy." Ning Rongrong's voice sounded. A delicate figure ran out of the barracks. "Why are you here?" Directly throwing herself into Ning Fengzhi's embrace, Ning Rongrong excitedly said.
Right now, the others also walked out of the room. Xue Qinghe gestured to Tang San to keep quiet, and Tang San immediately understood, understanding that he didn't want to expose his identity. Naturally, it was inconvenient to introduce him.
Flender and Grandmaster came up,”
"Dean Flender. We were passing by and heard that you had already checked in, so we came to take a look. At the same time, I have a presumptuous request."
"Oh? Sect Master Ning, please speak." Flender looked somewhat surprised at this influential figure of the seven great sects. She didn't understand why he would come to her for help.
"Rongrong was indebted to the care and guidance of the dean and teachers at your esteemed academy, her strength advancing by leaps and bounds, much stronger than when she was in the Sect. It seems that my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's internal education system still has a very big problem. Therefore, I would like to send some of your sect's young scholars to Shrek Academy to study when the semester starts next year.”
"What?" Flender thought he heard wrong, compared to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Shrek Academy's position was far from his, he had never thought that Ning Fengzhi would make such a request. "Sect Master Ning, isn't this inappropriate? How can our academy compare to your sect's education?”
"There's nothing inappropriate, isn't Rongrong the best example?" I'll just say it straight, I've decided to send a sect disciple to your esteemed academy mainly for Grandmaster. I believe that Grandmaster's ability to teach my younger brother is second to none in the entire continent, and Grandmaster's knowledge is also something I cannot compare to.
Flender suddenly understood. Indeed, even though Grandmaster was previously famous for his theories, his reputation in the Spirit Master world still came from their Golden Iron Triangle's Trinity combination.
But with Tang San's emergence. As a discerning person, Ning Fengzhi naturally understood that this was inextricably linked to Grandmaster's teachings. Since Grandmaster could teach a genius, he could naturally also teach a second, a third, or even more. Ning Fengzhi was worthy of being one of the sect masters of the three upper sects, his foresight made Flender inwardly praise.
Grandmaster's expression moved, just as he wanted to say something, but seeing Flender's somewhat pleading gaze, the words he wanted to say were immediately blocked. If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School could cooperate with Shrek Academy. It was of great significance to Shrek Academy's future development.
With the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School behind him. Shrek Academy would undoubtedly rise to the level of a famous academy on the continent.
Even though Grandmaster wasn't willing to be tied down by worldly matters, when he thought of everything Flender had paid for him and Liu Erlong these years, he felt that he had to be careful. He really couldn't bear to reject her again. He could only acquiesce.
Ning Fengzhi didn't seem to see Grandmaster's troubled expression, smiling at Flender: "I'll discuss the specifics of our cooperation with the dean after this Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament ends. The ranking competition was a stage to display one's strength, and also the best opportunity to train these children. Here, I wish Shrek Academy good results.”
Flender hurriedly thanked him.
At this time, Xue Qinghe said,"Teacher, it's getting late. We should go."”
Flender's gaze turned to Xue Qinghe,”
"He is my little brother Shu, called Xue Qinghe.”
Xue Qinghe took the initiative to salute Flender, saying: "Hello, Dean Flender."
Flender was also a man of the ways of the world, even though Xue Qinghe's clothes weren't particularly outstanding, the temperament on his body absolutely wasn't something ordinary nobles could possess. However, he naturally wouldn't expose anything. He only returned the greeting and smiled at Xue Qinghe.
"Dad, you just came and you're leaving! Unfortunately, I'm a support-type and can't go on stage in the ranking competition. Otherwise, I'll definitely let you see my current strength.”
"No need to look, could it be that I still wouldn't feel at ease handing you over to dean Flender and the others? Continue to work hard, you are the future hope of the sect. I've discussed this with the sect elders. After you graduate from Shrek Academy, we'll officially announce you as the next successor to the sect master.”
Ning Rongrong stuck out her tongue, clearly not very interested in the position of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School master.
Ning Fengzhi's expression turned stiff, Daddy only has you as his daughter. If the sect doesn't teach you, who should I pass it on to? You don't have to be dissatisfied. With dad's current physical condition, it's not a problem for him to hold on for a few more decades.”
Ning Rongrong's face immediately blushed when her father saw through her thoughts, but she didn't have any joy in her heart. Subconsciously, her gaze drifted to the side, falling on Oscar not far away, a feeling of uneasiness rising from her heart.
Even though she had already decided to tell Oscar about the sect's rules after this competition, she didn't know why, but as time passed, she found that the courage in her heart was becoming less and less.
Ever since she agreed to give Oscar a chance, for nearly half a year, Oscar had been training hard every day. His talent was gradually revealed. There was much less laughter, but his strength was truly increasing.
The speed of improvement was so fast that even Grandmaster was amazed. Grandmaster had said before that Oscar would be the second person after Tang San to step into the forty second rank.
As a food system Spirit Master, his speed of improvement was unexpectedly faster than Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun and the others. This could only mean that his efforts were more than the others.
Ning Fengzhi once again bid farewell to Flender and Grandmaster.
"Tang San, goodbye. I'll be waiting to see you in the ranking competition.”Xue Qinghe also greeted Tang San, and the two then walked out of the Academy Book Hall accompanied by everyone.
Returning to the camp, Flender pulled Tang San, Is it Heaven Dou Empire's Imperial Book?"
Tang San was inwardly startled, thinking to himself, the older the ginger, the spicier, I've seen him once before."
Flender's eyes moved slightly, the corners of his mouth revealing a trace of a smile,”
With Bing Yingxue's strength, she easily passed the promotion competition and won
