Chapter 258 The Competition Begins
Hearing this name, Qi Ling was stunned. Why did his team suddenly become the Qilin Team? Can this thing be renamed casually?
But seeing Dugu Bo's successful smile, Qi Ling knew it must be him. He didn't know what method he used to get both the organizer and the Tiandou Empire to agree to the name change. It was incredible.
After all, although Qi Ling's team is called the second team, everyone knows that they are the official team representing the Tiandou Empire. It can be said that they themselves represent the Tiandou Empire, and they cannot be renamed casually.
Moreover, anyone who hears this name will know that it is based on his own name "Qi Ling". Isn't it too arrogant? Even if he doesn't care about being so public, will the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, Emperor Xueye, agree?
Thinking of this, Qi Ling couldn't help but look at the VIP table. There, in addition to Prince Xuexing and other royal nobles, as well as the three education committee members of Tiandou Academy, the most conspicuous person was undoubtedly the person sitting on the first floor.
Those three people in a row.
The man in the middle, although old, has a unique temperament that belongs to an emperor and cannot be deceived. There is no doubt that he must be the emperor of the Tiandou Empire, Emperor Xueye.
What surprised Qi Ling was that when he heard about his "Qilin Team", Emperor Xueye didn't show any surprise, as if he had known about it in advance. Qi Ling couldn't help but feel strange. Could it be that Dugu
Bona, an old boy, is so capable that he even has friendship with the emperor?
In fact, what Qi Ling didn't know was that Dugu Bo really had a relationship with the emperor, but it was just a negotiation relationship through Mengshenji, and the content included asking Qi Ling to change the team name.
Today's Tiandou Empire has reached the point where it is thirsty for talents, so in order to recruit talents, Emperor Xueye will not hesitate to pay any price.
When he heard people talking about how outstanding Qi Ling was, he already wanted to recruit them, so he agreed to many of their conditions, but the requirement was that Qi Ling must win this competition, otherwise he would be charged with deceiving the emperor.
to condemn him.
Naturally, Dugu Bo also knew that even if Qi Ling failed to win, as long as he showed his talent, Emperor Xueye would not be willing to kill him. The most he could do was punish him. Whoever asked him to boast about Haikou to him before would definitely
Won first place in the competition.
To the left and right of Emperor Xue Ye, sat the bishop of Wuhun Palace and Ning Fengzhi, the leader of Qibao Glazed Sect. Not only did they have special status, they also served as judges for this competition, so they could compete with Emperor Xue Ye.
Sitting in the same row.
After introducing the information about Team Qilin, the following teams also began to enter one after another. When all the teams had entered, the master of ceremonies read loudly: "Now, I would like to invite His Majesty the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire to announce the opening of this competition!
"
Amid thunderous applause from the audience, Emperor Xueye, who was wearing a red-gold robe, stood up slowly, then came to the host's stage, and with a calm and resonant voice, he delivered a sophisticated and calm speech.
Encouraged by Emperor Xue Ye, the soul masters present felt their blood boiling and their eyes released a burning brilliance. For them, such a competition would be the best stage to showcase themselves.
After Emperor Xue Ye gave his speech, Ning Fengzhi also gave a speech as usual. Then the Platinum Bishop of Wuhun Palace, Salas, came to draw lots for the first round of qualifiers.
Seeing the old man slowly walking up to the emcee and starting to draw the places for both sides, Qi Ling couldn't help but feel nervous, because if the original plot was followed, they would have won the Shrek Academy at this time. If that were the case, he would be the winner.
Should you win or shouldn’t you win?
Since today is the opening ceremony, there will only be one game, which is the Qilin team's game, which is enough to prove the importance of this game. After thinking about it again and again, Qi Ling decided that if that is really the case, then he will not help the two.
, the outcome depends entirely on destiny.
Fortunately, fate didn't seem so cruel. Salas quickly drew out the order of all twenty-eight teams. The opponent of the Qilin Team in the first game was a team called the Purple Star Team.
Qi Ling didn't have much of an impression of this team. There didn't seem to be any outstanding players in it, so it could only be regarded as a cannon fodder team.
The one chosen by Shrek Academy is also an unknown team called Oakland Academy. Judging from the current situation, they should be able to win easily.
"You're lucky." Qi Ling smiled slightly, then looked in the direction of Shrek, and found that everyone was looking at him and smiling at the same time.
Naturally, all the teams were very satisfied with this result. However, Bishop Salas did not return to his position immediately after drawing the lots. Instead, he faced all the soul masters and said, "Since you have no objections,
Then, in the name of Wuhun Palace, I announce that this battle quota has officially come into effect!"
"At the same time, I am here to announce that for all the contestants present, whoever can enter the finals, Wuhun Temple will make an exception and allow you to directly join Wuhun Temple!"
As soon as these words came out, not only the soul masters were in an uproar, but even Emperor Xueye and Ning Fengzhi changed their expressions, because this was a direct challenge to the majesty of the Tiandou Empire, and they were completely ignored.
At the same time, Qi Ling also understood why Emperor Xue Ye agreed to so many requests just to recruit him. If he won the championship and directly joined the Spirit Hall, it would probably be an eternal shame for the Tiandou Empire.
The sensitive people present also felt the subtlety of this. The conflict between Wuhun Palace and the Yidu Empire seems to have reached an irreconcilable point. The conflict is about to break out. I am afraid I have to choose which side to stand on as soon as possible.
A decision has been made.
Although the empire is powerful, everyone knows that whoever controls more soul masters in this world will have more say. When it comes to the number of soul masters, Wuhun Palace can completely crush any force in the world.
.
But despite this, at least for now, everyone has to maintain a semblance of peace. Emperor Xueye is still the supreme emperor, and he is the person Salas cannot offend.
So after saying this, he returned to his seat and did not do any more transgressions.
"Okay, then the first game of the first round of the qualifiers that will be held next will be between the Qilin team and the Purple Star team. The other colleges will withdraw one by one. The two colleges that will compete later will prepare. After half an hour, the game will begin.
Officially begin."
Since there was no competition in the other colleges, they all left the rest area directly, but no one left. Instead, they were led by the staff to the viewing area specially prepared for the players.
Chapter completed!
