Chapter 439: The Soul Master Competition Begins! The Strongest Opponent in the Preliminary Round, the Wind Sword Sect, a Single Attribute Family
Everyone entered into high-intensity training again.
Time flies.
The last six months have finally passed.
Ai Xuanyu was now 17 years old, and Huo Yuhao was 16 and a half years old. Their spirit powers had increased by one or two levels, becoming a bit stronger than they were half a year ago.
And this day finally marks the arrival of the five-year Soul Master Competition!
In the Aicheng division, there are more than sixty participating teams, and the competition will be held in the Fighting Spirit City in Aicheng!
At this moment, outside the fighting spirit arena.
"I declare! This Soul Master Competition officially begins!!"
With the words of the current emperor of the Ivan Empire, the game officially began with the sound of gunfire and fireworks.
More than sixty teams entered one after another.
Under the gaze and cheers of a large number of spectators, all teams stepped into the competition space of the Fighting Spirit Arena.
At this moment, the atmosphere on the scene was very enthusiastic, intense, and hot. There were more than ten thousand people in the entire space, and there were even more people outside who couldn't get in because they didn't get tickets. This shows how popular the Soul Master Competition is on the mainland.
Because this is a time to witness the genius of soul masters of every era. It is also an opportunity for all the talented young soul masters of the same era to prove themselves and show their faces in front of the people of the mainland and the soul master world for the first time.
If you can perform well in the Soul Master Competition, you can become famous overnight and make a name for yourself in the Soul Master world.
Most soul masters value fame and fortune besides strength.
"Royal Academy!"
"Royal Academy!"
"Royal Academy!"
As the team from the Royal Academy of the Ivan Empire entered the venue, the atmosphere and cheers on the scene instantly reached a climax.
After all, this is their home ground, and as an imperial academy, their support is naturally the highest.
After entering, the game starts immediately.
As the number of participating teams increases, the qualifiers are no longer a simple single round-robin points tournament, but have become a round-robin elimination tournament.
64 teams will be drawn for the knockout round.
After the first round, there are 32 teams left.
After the second round, there are 16 teams left.
After the third round, eight teams remained.
After the fourth round, there are 4 teams left.
Then these four teams advanced directly.
Then the remaining sixty teams will have another round of eliminations, and finally four teams will advance.
There were fifty-six teams left, and they went into the final round of eliminations. In the end, two teams advanced, thus making exactly ten teams to advance to the next stage of the qualifying round.
This will greatly reduce the number of days for the Soul Master Competition preliminaries.
However, it is no longer the case that one can advance solely based on absolute strength. This kind of competition mode has a bit of luck involved, but the luck factor is not high.
It all depends on your strength. Without strength, good luck is useless.
Soon, after Teacher Lin Tian drew the lots.
The order is set, and the competition will begin soon!
Royal Academy ranked third in the first round.
Soon, the first teams of the first round went on stage to compete.
In the Ai City Division, many strong teams have a generally high overall level, but there are not many truly top teams.
Among the sixty-four teams, more than half of them are Soul Sect members, and only a few teams have some Soul Master level students.
And in these teams, we can even see quite a few players led by Soul King level players.
Soul Kings are also rare on this stage.
Not long after the first two games ended, they finally arrived at the Ivan Empire Royal Academy.
"First round, third game!"
"The Royal Academy of the Ivan Empire versus the Glorious Academy!!"
"Please invite both teams to come on the field!"
Lin Tian arranged; "Ai Xuanyu, Yuhao, Wang Siyu, Chen Ze, Xiaoxiao, Beibei, Jiang Nannan, the seven of you go on stage."
"Xuan Yu, please reserve your strength and don't use your full strength."
"And Yuhao, Xiaoxiao, you can only use the Spirit Eyes Martial Soul and the Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron Martial Soul. Do not use the other Martial Soul. You must hide your strength."
"Yes!"
Seven people stood up at the same time and walked towards the stage.
Except for the two main players, Ai Xuanyu and Huo Yuhao, the other five players were all substitutes.
This is all to hide their strength. After all, there may be strong teams from other regions that are capable of competing for the championship hidden among the audience, and they send people over to understand their strength in advance.

In fact, it is extremely important for soul masters to understand each other in battles. There is a saying that goes, "know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle."
Therefore, it is necessary to hide your strength.
Soon, Ai Xuanyu and seven others came on stage.
Their basic information, names, martial spirits, and spirit power levels quickly appeared on the big screen.
As the information of Ai Xuanyu, Huo Yuhao and the other seven people emerged, there was a burst of heated discussion at the scene.
"Seventh Prince Ai Xuanyu is so amazing, he is already level 57. It is very likely that he can cultivate to the Soul Emperor realm before he turns 18."
"When the time comes, if you join the genius training camp, you can directly get a place as a priest and ascend to become a god!"
"Hey Hey hey!"
“Look at the Royal Academy. Huo Yuhao is at level 49, and Xiao Xiao is only at level 46. What’s going on with the Royal Academy this year? How come there are still two four-ringed Soul Masters?”
“Isn’t this weaker than the last session?”
"You are stupid! The Royal Academy is always a strong team that is the favorite to win the championship. How can they possibly send out their main players to play in a mere qualifier? There must be five substitutes, and the two Soul Masters are also substitutes!"
"Oh, that's true, but the last class of the Royal Academy was full of Soul Kings, even the substitutes."
"Well, maybe these two soul masters have some extraordinary qualities."
"Or is it that the Royal Academy is not doing well again today..."
As the game has begun amid a wave of heated discussions, the opposing Glory Academy can be said to be a weak team.
There are two Soul Masters among them, and the soul power of the five Soul Sect members does not exceed level 45.
This kind of weak team can be easily crushed and defeated even if they field five substitutes!
Soon, the game is over!
"The Royal Academy wins!"
Then came the fourth, fifth, and sixth games.
After each game is over.
The first day of competition finally ended, and thirty-two teams entered the second round.
The competition lasted from morning to late at night, and Ai Xuanyu and Huo Yuhao stayed in the fighting arena to watch the battle.
Watching other teams play, they already had complete control over which strong teams in the qualifiers could barely threaten them.
Among them, the most threatening teams are the Fengjian Sect team and the single-attribute family team.
After that there are the Explosive Sect, Black Tiger Sect, Rock Antelope Sect, and Sparrow Bee Sect, which are also quite powerful.
These powerful sect teams are all in the Aicheng division.
Ten thousand years ago, when the Alvin Empire was still a small kingdom, in order to rapidly expand the kingdom's spirit master power, Alvin conquered those powerful sects and families across the continent and made them serve the kingdom.
Therefore, those sects and soul master families that followed Alvin back then are doing well now.
