Chapter 121 During the Conference, Huyan Zhen's Provocation
"In competition area 1, Hu Yan'an from Elephant Armor Sect has won. Hai Ke from Spirit Wood Sect, please withdraw from the competition area. Also, please send a non-Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul Master to defend your position next, as this tournament is about a sect's ability to cultivate disciples, not the quality of their Martial Souls."
The young man controlling the thorny vines couldn't trip up Huyan Zong's giant elephant and was forced into a corner, exiting in a sorry state. Huyan Zhen's lips curled up, but he became unhappy after hearing the report.
"In competition area 4, Wen Kefa from the Wind Sword Sect is suspended from the match. Poison is not a method of cultivation for a sect. The purpose of the Seven Sects Re-selection Tournament is to compare the sect's foundation and philosophy. Using non-sect methods violates the purpose of the tournament. This is hereby issued a reprimand. A second offense will result in a yellow card warning."
A young contestant who had secretly applied poison to his martial spirit before the competition looked embarrassed on stage, while his opponent looked incredulous.
"Ji Hao and Ji Zhensheng from the Rock Antelope Sect, and Hu Yanquan from the Elephant Armor Sect, are given a yellow card warning. During the tournament, all fighting is confined to the arena and no harm of any kind to other sects' contestants is permitted."
In the waiting area, mycelium bound two Rock Antelope Sect contestants and one Elephant Armor Sect contestant, while the light of life shone on the disciples of their own sect opposite them, healing their injuries.
"Attention, Sect Master Huyan Zhen of the Elephant Armor Sect! Do not interfere with the normal proceedings of the tournament by using telepathic communication. The tournament has complete refereeing and protection facilities. Any violation of discipline will be stopped and reported to the entire venue. This is a second yellow card warning, and your final score will be reduced by 10 points."
"As the sect leader, Zong Yu, please cease your mental communication. The arena employs spatial separation technology, and mental power cannot break through the spatial blockade."
In the spectator area, Hu Yanzhen, the "Meat Mountain," had a livid face, while Yu Dang, with his ordinary build, gave an awkward smile. Yu Dang's martial soul was his brain, making him exceptionally strong.
Chaos occurred frequently at the scene.
The Seven Great Sects are the forces that set the rules in the Soul Master world. Who else could set the rules for them in the past? Moreover, the title of "Seven Great Sects" is not only a symbol of honor, but also represents a series of interests.
Isn't it only right to use any means necessary to gain profit?
How did it become a violation now?
Many people at the scene were dissatisfied, with Hu Yanzhen being the most discontented.
Ikehira didn't care about this.
He hosted the conference in his own style, as always.
"In Division 12, the Spirit Wood Sect and the Grass and Wood Sect have chosen a literary duel. This is the first pair of sects to choose a literary duel in this tournament, which is truly rare! The duel they have chosen is in the field of poison medicine. It can be revealed that the literary duel topics in this tournament are all from masters in their respective fields, and the topics in the field of poison medicine are from Poison Douluo Dugu Bo and Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan."
When constructing the Grand Arena, Chi Ping used spatial soul guidance technology to divide and expand the space of the Grand Arena into 12 competition zones with an area roughly the same as the original arena, which was enough to ensure that all sects could compete together.
The disciples from the two sects in Division 12 were already beginning to regret choosing the literary contest.
Both sects cultivate plant-based martial spirits, their abilities are similar, and their skill levels are roughly equal. They originally intended to settle the matter in a more relaxed way, but unexpectedly found themselves in a difficult situation. The questions set by Dugu Bo and Yue Guan are far from simple; even the disciples of both sects are not confident in their ability to answer them. If they can't even answer one question, they'll suffer a huge loss of face!
While the Spirit Wood Sect and the Grass and Wood Sect were entangled in their conflict, the conference continued.
Soon, another brave warrior chose to engage in a battle of wits.
This time it's the Elephant Armor Sect and the Holy Dragon Sect.
On the field, Chi Ping's avatar explained the rules to both sides: "The Holy Dragon Sect disciples attack, the Elephant Armor Sect disciples defend, ten moves are the limit, no time limit. Is there anything you don't understand?"
Ikehira himself sits in the referee's seat and also serves as a commentator, while the actual refereeing work is carried out by puppets.
No. *2
Ikehira, the doll, nodded. "Then, let's begin!"
Beast souls possessed him, forming a mountain of flesh, with a majestic armored figure standing at either end of the arena.
The White-Armored Earth Dragon is a sub-dragon species, clad in iron armor, possessing immense strength, but lacking elemental attributes, and slightly inferior to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. The cover of "Chishu's Starry Forest Adventure" depicts Chi Ping battling a White-Armored Earth Dragon with 70,000 years of cultivation.
The disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect prepared their strength in a horse stance, while the disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect deployed their strongest defense.
The absence of a time limit means that disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect can use charged skills to unleash power beyond their limits, but similarly, disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect can focus on defense. Unless it's a soul skill that creates a protective shield, defensive soul skills generally have low energy consumption. As long as they can withstand the initial burst of power, disciples of the Elephant Armor Sect will have a greater advantage.
"Earth Dragon—Turning Over!"
The disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect leaped, their thousand-year soul rings radiating light, and their unique soul power techniques came into play, using gravity to accelerate them as if they were falling to the ground weighing ten thousand pounds.
"Drink!"
The Elephant Armor Sect disciple caught the attack that descended from the sky, his face flushed red. "Sacred Dragon Tail Sweep!"
The disciples of the Holy Dragon Sect quickly changed their tactics, using the counter-force to launch a second, more powerful kick after spinning around once.
Chi Ping, the puppet, nodded slightly, and several mycelium strands popped out, neutralizing the attack from the Holy Dragon Sect disciple.
"Holy Dragon Sect wins! Elephant Armor Sect, please send out your next disciple."
Overall, the methods of the Holy Dragon Sect disciples are superior to those of the Elephant Armor Sect disciples. Chi Ping's technique of applying force twice looks quite impressive.
Anyone with eyes could see that if the Elephant Armor Sect disciples tried to take the blow head-on, they would easily be seriously injured or even killed. Therefore, Chi Ping intervened in advance to resolve the situation.
This battle between disciples ended in defeat for the Elephant Armor Sect.
In the stands, Hu Yanzhen felt that Chi Ping was targeting Xiangjiazong.
The only sect to receive two yellow cards was Elephant Armor Sect. In the ranking of the seven sects, Elephant Armor Sect's highest score was only 90, putting them at a significant disadvantage from the start.
If they lose any more points, they may very well miss out on a top-three finish.
"He's not dead yet, why is he meddling in other people's business!"
……
The disciple battle lasted for ten days. The top three were the Holy Dragon Sect, the Black Tiger Sect, and the Wind Sword Sect, while the Elephant Armor Sect came in eighth.
Hu Yanzhen was furious.
……
On the 12th day of the tournament, the battle of the strongest officially began.
The atmosphere was tense from the very beginning of the competition between the strongest individuals and the strongest combinations from the 23 sects. If the cameras hadn't been focused on them the whole time, these sect leaders and elders, who had to maintain their image, would probably have already started a full-blown brawl.
"All players, please proceed to the judges' table to draw lots and receive your medal numbers."
The referee announced that everyone followed Chi Shu's camera to the referee's stand and drew numbered balls from the soul-guided wooden box that was protected from all other means.
"Why is mine number 23? Are you looking down on me?!"
Huyan Zhen roared in anger.
The Elephant Armor Sect almost made it into the top seven in the disciple battle, so this last place seems like a real mockery.
"Drawing lots is purely a matter of luck. The number only determines the order of the battles, and I will be responsible for the treatment after the battles. Therefore, the order of the numbers has no advantage or disadvantage and has no meaning whatsoever," Chi Ping said calmly, without the slightest emotion.
Hu Yanzhen became even angrier.
At this point, anything that doesn't completely satisfy his desires becomes the target of his anger.
"If there are no objections, please proceed to Arena Number 12 and await the conclusion of the first round of duels."
Hu Yanzhen narrowed his eyes slightly and approached Chi Ping.
Chi Ping is 1.7 meters tall, while Hu Yanzhen is over 2.5 meters tall. Compared to their enormous size, Chi Ping looks like a child who hasn't grown up.
"Waiting alone is too boring. Referee, would you like to play a game with me?"
After thinking about it, Ikehira nodded, since it wouldn't take much time or effort anyway.
"no problem."
