Douluo: Starting with the Signing in of Goddess Xiaowu-Chapter 61: Guaranteed to the final! Tianshui Academy (6300)_2

"Oh!" Xue Ye’s eyebrows twitched.

Next, Xue Qinghe recounted the encounter at Lan Ba Academy, detailing every aspect of it!

"Soul King?" Xue Ye said with slight excitement, "Qinghe, does Lan Ba Academy really have a Soul King under the age of twenty-five?"

Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo exchanged a smile; they knew that person had to be Chu Qin without doubt.

Xue Qinghe nodded, "Indeed! And Father Emperor, aside from Chu Qin being a Soul King, what surprised this son the most was that except for Ye Lingling, all the members of the Qinglong Battle Team have Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings for their fourth soul powers!" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Upon hearing this, a complex expression appeared in Xue Ye’s eyes, filled with excitement as well as unease.

"Recently, I heard that Lan Ba Academy won the Tiandou Royal Academy’s invitation competition!" After a pause, Xue Ye spoke with a hint of happiness, "It seems that Lan Ba Academy truly is a hidden dragon and crouching tiger!"

"Father Emperor, your son has already agreed to give the Qinglong Battle Team a pass as a qualified team into the finals!" Xue Qinghe quickly said as he saw Xue Ye’s pleased expression.

"What!" To his surprise, Xue Ye became angry again, "Qinghe, have you lost your mind? No matter how strong Lan Ba Academy is, Tiandou Royal Academy represents the face of the royal household! By giving the Lan Ba Academy team a pass to the finals, where does that leave the dignity of the royal household!"

"Please forgive me, Father Emperor!" Xue Qinghe immediately knelt and begged for forgiveness.

"Qinghe, you’ve gone too far with this!" Prince Xue Xing chimed in, "Making such a decision on your own, giving Lan Ba Academy a pass to the finals, do you have an ulterior motive?"

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi quickly turned his gaze and added, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger! I think what the Crown Prince has done is not wrong. The departures of Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling from Tiandou Royal Academy indicate poor management. If we send a team from Tiandou Royal Academy in such a state to the finals and they are badly defeated, won’t it damage the prestige of our Tiandou Empire!"

Upon hearing this, Prince Xue Xing frowned; he was the one in charge of Tiandou Royal Academy!

Xue Ye’s anger slightly subsided after Ning Fengzhi’s remarks, "Sect Master Ning, what do you suggest?"

"Not to conceal from Your Majesty," Ning Fengzhi replied, "I am quite familiar with Lan Ba Academy. My daughter, Ning Rongrong, is a member of the Qinglong Battle Team!"

"What, Sect Master Ning’s beloved daughter is in the Qinglong Battle Team?" Xue Ye said with slight surprise.

"Indeed!" Ning Fengzhi replied, "And furthermore, the captain of the Qinglong Battle Team, Chu Qin, has a significant relationship with me!"

Xue Ye felt much more at ease. Chu Qin having a close relationship with the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect meant that he would definitely support the Tiandou Empire, and Xue Ye even felt that Chu Qin might join the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect.

After all, the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect was considered a part of the royal power.

"Sect Master Ning, please continue," Emperor Xue Ye said.

"This Chu Qin is extremely talented!" Ning Fengzhi replied, "I believe that the Qinglong Battle Team will be the undisputed champions of this Senior Soul Master Elite Competition! Once Qinglong wins the championship, it will not only promote the might of our Tiandou Empire, but also show the citizens that Your Majesty is magnanimous, giving the qualification based on strength rather than favoritism!"

"Your Majesty, that mustn’t be allowed!" Xue Xing hastily responded, "This Qinglong Battle Team is after all from Lan Ba Academy!"

After considering for a moment, Emperor Xue Ye said, "In that case, change Lan Ba Academy to Royal Qinglong Academy and bestow the Qinglong Battle Team with a pass!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe said simultaneously.

Emperor Xue Ye’s move was brilliantly calculated. Firstly, it would make outsiders believe that the Qinglong Battle Team was a team from the royal academy, and secondly, it would greatly increase the odds of winning the championship!

Only Prince Xue Xing wore a sinister expression.

Soon afterward, in Tiandou Imperial Palace, at the Crown Prince’s Mansion.

"Your Holiness, why would you agree to give the Qinglong Battle Team a pass to the finals? Why does the Tiandou Empire have such a young Soul King?" an elder asked Xue Qinghe, "We at Martial Soul Hall had no knowledge of this."

Xue Qinghe shook her head as if her mind was elsewhere. Her heart was still recalling Chu Qin’s face, which left her somewhat unsettled.

"Should we inform Martial Soul Hall of this?" the elder continued, "Otherwise, I fear this Senior Soul Master Elite Competition may encounter some unexpected turn of events!"

"A turn of events would be good. I figured out that Chu Qin was extraordinary a long time ago!" Xue Qinghe replied with a tilt in her mouth, "The representative team of Martial Soul Hall this time is that woman’s disciple! If she loses at the Senior Soul Master Elite Competition, that woman’s face will also be shamed. Isn’t that exactly what I want to see? Porcupine Douluo, there’s no need to tell Martial Soul Hall about Chu Qin. However, go and investigate his background thoroughly!"

"At your command!"

In the Tiandou Imperial Capital, at the grand soul fighting arena!

The grand soul fighting arena is unique to Soul Land! It’s also similar to the ancient Roman Animal Fighting Arena but instead of beasts, the fights here are between people and people!

At this moment, within a fighting stage in the grand soul fighting arena!

The round seating area, accommodating two thousand people, was fully packed without a single empty seat.

Various cheers and screams thundered like the roar of thunder.

"Up next! Entering the stage are the Blazing Fire Team and the Qinglong Battle Team! The Blazing Fire Team is made entirely of Soul Elders and has already achieved six consecutive victories this month, while the Qinglong Battle Team is a newcomer! Will the Blazing Fire Team continue their legend, or will the Qinglong Battle Team rise as a dark horse? Let’s wait and see!"

The host’s voice through the soul amplifier stirred up even more excitement among the audience.

Moreover, the calls for the Blazing Fire Team seemed to be very high.

Various cheers such as "Blazing Fire, Blazing Passion!" and "Where Blazing Fire goes, no grass grows!" kept rising.

Amidst the cheers, a group of young men and women with trendy hairstyles stepped onto the stage with high spirits.
