Chapter 72 The soul of China has never been destroyed!
Although Su Yu only said that he was injured and could not participate in the battle, Su Yu was also clear about the real reason.

Now that his mental power has been absorbed by Old Yi, he will be in a state of mental weakness for a short period of time. Only when Old Yi wakes up again, Su Yu will be able to restore his mental power to normal.

Otherwise, if things continue to develop in this way, and if Mr. Yi doesn't stop, Su's future will stop here. Now his spiritual sea is almost exhausted. Not to mention practicing, he can't even rest properly.

Not only the Shrek Academy representative team is having a meeting, but almost all participating colleges are doing mobilization work at this time. The same is true for the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy, which is on the same floor as Shrek Academy.

They were ranked second in almost every competition, so their treatment in the Star Emperor Hotel was almost the same as that in Shrek Academy. They have only one goal, and that is to strive for first place.

In the conference room, two old men sat in the upper seats, and a total of fourteen students sat on both sides. The students on the left were obviously older, while those on the right were slightly younger.

Obviously, the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy also sent a regular team and a reserve team prepared for five years later.

But this time they were destined to lose. However, because of the appearance of Su Yu, Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao no longer had the spirit fusion skill, so the outcome of this time was unknown.

Su Yu also tried to communicate with Yi Lao, but Yi Lao was always in a deep sleep and there was no response no matter how Su Yu tried to communicate.

The only response was that Su's mental power was constantly being absorbed. When Su's mental power was about to be exhausted, Yi Lao would let Su Yu recover on his own. Whenever Su Yu was almost recovered, Yi Lao would absorb it again...

This is simply treating Su as a free engine, working tirelessly to squeeze Su Yu's mental power...

While Su Yu was recuperating at home, his father saw that his child was injured while performing the academy mission. He was about to blame Su for spending tens of millions of gold coins, but was abruptly dispelled by Wang Yan's praise.

If Su Yu participated in this continent-wide advanced soul master academy soul fighting competition, he would definitely be the one that everyone would focus on!

However, no matter how pretentious you are, some things are really meaningless to Su Yu. If you cannot become a god in the future and cannot find your own path, you will eventually be annihilated in the war of Douluo Continent. Even if you can survive on your own, you will eventually become a handful of earth because of the exhaustion of your lifespan.

Therefore, he must hurry up and prepare for his future, especially whether he can survive the future trend or rise in troubled times!

"So your identity is not ordinary. I'm afraid your family's real strength is not as simple as it appears on the surface, Su Yu?" He Caitou has long lost his previous honesty. Now he is the real him, mature, steady and imposing.

"If you ask me to find out the tragedy of the Sun-Moon Empire, my family really can't do it. After all, my family doesn't have the strength to infiltrate the palace."

Su Yu and Xu He were standing on the balcony of a hotel, which was owned by Su Yu's family.

He Caitou handed the soul guide design in his hand to Su Yu and said, "I have studied this blueprint thoroughly. You don't need to keep it with me. If you need any help in the future, please let me know."

"It's just a blueprint. You and I are both disciples of Teacher Fan Yu. Don't you know my temper and personality? I also have a design blueprint of a seventh-level soul instructor here. I bought it at the treasure appreciation meeting. Anyway, I can't use it. I'll give it to you. Don't say thank you to me, brother. There is no need to say thank you between you and me."

Su Yu pushed the blueprint back. It was a fourth-level soul guide blueprint, which was actually the three-dimensional mobile device that Su Yu had designed in the Sun-Moon Empire. What he handed to He Caitou now was the blueprint from the treasure appreciation meeting.

"The design drawings of a seventh-level soul engineer, this, this is too precious, I can't have it, this..." He Caitou was shocked when he took the design drawings. The design drawings of a seventh-level soul engineer were so precious, and Su Yu actually said that he would give them to him if he wanted.

"I'll give you a subordinate. I don't like to refuse."

Su Yu's spiritual sea felt empty and he almost fell to the ground.

He Caitou, who was standing by, quickly supported Su Yu. In his eyes, Su Yu's injuries seemed very serious, but there was no way to treat him. In a sense, his condition was more troublesome than that of Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yuheng, Ling Luochen and others.

The two talked for a long time, and exchanged their experiences in making soul guides. Before leaving, Su Yu looked at He Caitou and said, "Brother He, if you like it, don't leave yourself with any regrets..."

This sentence made He Caitou a little confused. He didn't know what Su Yu was talking about. He Caitou thought Su Yu was telling him that since he had chosen the path of soul mentor, he should not regret it. But was this really what Su meant?

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into Star Luo City, the capital of the Star Luo Empire revealed a serious atmosphere.

All the streets around Xingluo Square were blocked by soldiers in distinctive armor, especially near Xinghuang Hotel, where there were thousands of soldiers stationed. The streets leading to Xingluo Square were under complete martial law, and only the participating teams from each academy who walked out of Xinghuang Hotel were allowed to pass.

The competition stage for this year's All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition was not built in the center of Xingluo Square, but in front of the main gate of the Imperial City.

In this way, His Majesty the Emperor of Xingluo Empire and his civil and military officials can directly watch the battle from the top of the imperial city. Not only is the view the best, but it is also safe.

The entire competition stage is 100 meters long and 5 meters high. There are a total of 108 metal pillars around the competition stage. This is not a decoration, but a real protective soul guide.

After the competition begins, one hundred and eight soul masters will take charge of the protection of the competition stage. These metal pillars will form a protective shield to block all soul skills inside from escaping, so as not to damage the imperial city or hurt innocent people.

Just building this competition stage cost a huge amount of money, plus mobilizing soul masters to serve the competition for more than a month. Without national-level strength, it is really difficult.

However, Su Yu's family is an exception. If it is simply a matter of hiring, Su Yu's family is fully capable of handling the construction of a large competition. However, once the scattered power of the Su family is exposed, it will be unacceptable to the three empires.

No one would allow a force beyond their control to exist. Moreover, the power of the Su Yu family did not lie in the military, but in the economic lifeline of the country, from the military to the civilians...

At this time, Xingluo Square was empty. Except for the soldiers in the distance, there was no one in the square.

The sun slowly rose into the sky from the distant east, and a sense of warmth suddenly rose in Xingluo City, which was located in the middle of the continent.

At the top of the imperial city, a middle-aged man wearing a bright yellow robe and a purple gold crown with eight treasures on his head stood with his hands behind his back. The position he was standing at was in the very center of the imperial city's main gate, and it was also the best place to watch the competition stage below.

Beside him was a beautiful woman wearing a gorgeous palace dress, who was respectfully and tenderly accompanying him. A few steps behind were the civil and military officials of the Star Luo Empire.

"Your Majesty." An old man wearing bright red civil servant clothes quickly stepped forward, came to the man's side and saluted respectfully. It could be seen from the python pattern embroidered on his robe that this old man's status was extremely noble. It can be described as an extremely human minister.

"Prime Minister, how are the arrangements going?" His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire asked with a smile.

The Prime Minister said respectfully: "Everything has been arranged. The draw is over and the order of the competition has been arranged. The outside is in order. People can be allowed in."

Emperor Xingluo smiled and nodded and said: "Okay, pass my order and let people in at each checkpoint. Control the speed and maintain order. If there is a problem in the place where the person is responsible, he will be severely punished."

As the competition began, everything went on in an orderly manner. The only difference was that because Su Yu left the team early, the Sun-Moon Empire had no information about Su Yu this time.

Because Su Yu's family had close ties with many nobles, Su Yu, as the heir of the Su family, sat in a very good viewing position. Here, Su Yu also met a person, the youngest sister of the current Emperor of the Xing Luo Empire, Xu Jiujiu.

"Princess Jiujiu, long time no see." Su Yu also stepped forward and performed the etiquette of the Xingluo Empire court. This etiquette was very common in the aristocratic circle.

Facing Su Yu's salute, Xu Jiujiu also returned a symbolic salute, "Su Yu, it seems that after more than a year, you have made some progress. Unlike you at the beginning, when you attended the banquet, you were not even a first-ring spirit master." "Hasn't your highness the princess also made a lot of progress? We can't just look at the surface of things. It's like the kid from the Dai family. He shined at the banquet of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, but unfortunately he was still defeated by me in Shrek Academy. The princess is making progress, and so am I, Su Yu. What's more, now my cultivation base is already a three-ring spirit master. I've reached level 20 in a year and a half. Can your highness the princess look at me with a higher opinion of me?"

Xu Jiujiu's tone was not very polite. After all, in Su's memory, when he first came here, he was often troubled by Xu Jiujiu in the auction house...

Xu Jiujiu's face remained calm. She had seen many geniuses, but she did not believe Su Yu's words. She just regarded them as a child's bragging. "Oh, really? I have also seen the little guy from the Dai family. With your strength, I am not sure he will lose to you."

"I don't mind if Your Highness thinks this way, but I suggest that next time Your Highness get to know the latest news first, instead of taking your prejudice for granted." After saying that, Su Yu slowly walked down the stands and left.

Looking at Su Yu's departing back, Xu Jiujiu still maintained his original smile, "I want to see how capable you, a little guy from the Su family, are. Don't forget, this is the Xingluo Imperial Capital..."

Just as the audience entered the venue, Huo Yuhao and his friends had already come to stand in the contestant area.

Today, everyone in Shrek Academy is wearing the traditional dark green uniform, which is the standard color of Shrek Academy. Moreover, the position they were standing in was also in the first row of all the colleges. No one of the colleges had any objection to this. This is the glory accumulated by Shrek Academy through its strength for thousands of years.

Originally Su Yu was going to go, but because of Su Yu's injury, Wang Yan didn't even consider Su Yu, so Su Yu just sat in the stands and watched the show.

However, the academy contestants standing behind looked at the lineup of Shrek Academy and couldn't help but express some surprise.

Even if only ten people came, most of them seemed to be far from twenty years old. You can completely tell how young they are without evaluating their bone age. Only the three at the front looked almost old enough. But they all wore cloaks, covering their appearance.

For most colleges, they are praying secretly in their hearts that they will never encounter strong players like Shrek College or the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineer College in the first round. Otherwise it is almost equivalent to announcing that they have been eliminated.

The participating team members from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy were standing behind Shrek Academy. This also makes it easier for them to observe the Shrek Academy students in front.

The youngest members of Shrek Academy were Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao. Huo Yuhao was better off. After fusing with the Ice Emperor's torso bone, his figure had changed a lot, and he looked like a 14 or 15-year-old boy. But Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao still had a bit of childishness on their faces.

Especially Xiao Xiao, she is short and looks like a little girl. Even the arrogant Xiao Hongchen was full of doubts at this time. What on earth is Shrek Academy going to do by sending out such a lineup?
Looking at the pale Su Yu in the stands, Wang Dong was still greeting Su Yu in the contestant area.

When everyone noticed Su Yu, they all nodded slightly towards where Su Yu was, and Su Yu also nodded to them.

When the emperor of the Xingluo Empire arrived, Su was very tactful and came to the Shrek Academy team. You want me to kneel down to you, the emperor? Are you dreaming?
My soul comes from the blue planet, from a country with a long tradition!
The story of Blue Star is richer than that of the Star Luo Empire. It is a place worth remembering.

Even though he was wearing a brocade robe, Su still stood at the front of Shrek Academy and saluted the emperor of the Star Luo Empire.

Faced with Su Yu's actions, all the nobles of the Xingluo Empire, including Princess Jiujiu, frowned.

Such a bold move made Wang Yan a little worried. Disrespecting an emperor has always been a serious crime!

But Su doesn't care. The world is so big, there's no place he can't go. It's not like his Su family can't escape!

Perhaps, this matter will be used as a bargaining chip by someone with ulterior motives to threaten the Su family in the future, but Su Yu doesn't care!

After the ceremony was over, Su Yu returned to the stands. Although many nobles still respected Su Yu, they no longer had the familiarity they had before, and instead felt unfamiliar.

Looking at their appearance, Su Yu didn't care. In his eyes, there was a mighty power that no one could suppress.

The fragmented martial spirit trembled slightly, and his heart trembled with it...

In a trance, he seemed to see the court robe embroidered with golden dragons emitting a faint golden light, and something in his sea of ​​​​spiritual consciousness was subtly touched.

"Roar……"

A roar of a giant dragon sounded in his sea of ​​consciousness, and a phantom emitting the glory of the Ancestral Dragon slowly took shape.

This……

Could this be...

…………

The loud voice from before suddenly sounded again, "According to the competition rules of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, the first round will be an elimination round. In this competition, there are a total of senior soul masters and soul teacher academies who have signed up. Thirteen schools. After drawing lots, one of them got a bye in the first round. A total of sixty-six games will be played. The first round is a knockout system. The loser will directly end the journey of this competition. Next, the first game will start immediately. . The two sides of the competition are the Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy team from the Dou Ling Empire, and the Shrek Academy team from the No. Academy in the mainland, which has countless honors and has won almost all competition championships in the past nearly a thousand years."

With this announcement from the host of the competition, the atmosphere in the entire Xingluo Square suddenly boiled to its peak.

"Shrek, Shrek, Shrek..."

The shouts of Shrek Academy resounded from almost every corner of the square.

Looking at this amazing spectacle, Su Yu had to summarize the strength of Shrek. Without the support of strength, even Shrek would not have such a brilliant glory.

However, this supreme honor also became a shackle, forcing everyone to maintain it, because this honor blinded their eyes and made them not pay attention to the development of the continent.

If Shrek Academy had started to focus on soul guides from the moment the three empires fought with the Sun-Moon Empire, Su Yu believed that the current situation of the soul guide department of Shrek Academy with a decline in talent would definitely not be here.

"Okay, the members of the Tianling Advanced Soul Master Academy have already appeared. At this moment of great attention, let us invite the first academy in the mainland, the real king of the academy, the Shrek Academy representative team to appear." The host The high-pitched voice pierced the clouds, and Star Luo Square suddenly turned into a sea of ​​cheers for Shrek.

The sound that echoed throughout the stadium woke Su Yu from his fantasy. Looking at the emperor of the Xingluo Empire on the stage, Su Yu remembered the hole that the Third Young Master had not filled until the end.

This Xingluo Emperor had once studied in Shrek Academy under an assumed name. It was known that the Emperor was still deeply in love with a woman who stayed in the inner courtyard of Shrek. As for the person who made the Emperor of Xingluo Empire linger, Su Yu could not guess who it was...

This pit was not mentioned even at the end, nor in the subsequent Douluo Continent series...
