Chapter 132 The Competition Begins
Here, it seems that the most precious thing is only this painting.
It seems that his father's experience is no less than his own. Although he is always unreliable in his words, he is meticulous in his actions. If Su Yu is not mistaken, the real Luo Yu should have disappeared long ago.
Because Su Xinyuan would not allow any risk that could threaten Su Yu to appear in his hands, just as he would not allow any risk that could threaten Mu Hanyan to appear.
Sitting quietly by the window, watching the bustling crowd outside, I waited patiently for Su Xinyuan to return.
…………
"What's wrong? You've gotten into trouble again. Do you expect your old man to clean up your mess?" After settling Mu Hanyan in, Su Xinyuan sat down opposite Su Yu.
Su Yu handed the Mingde Hall identity plaque directly to Su Xinyuan and slowly began to speak: "In order to enter Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen and I made an order, paying two million gold soul coins in advance. The rest is up to you. However, try to transfer the family to the territory of the Sun Moon Empire before I return from the Sun Moon Empire, but absolutely do not settle in Mingdu."
"You brat, have you discovered something again?" Su Xinyuan put away his contempt and asked Su Yu, looking at his serious face.
"Actually, it's not that we've discovered anything. Judging from the current situation, I can't say for sure whether the Sun Moon Empire will start a war. However, the situation in the Sun Moon Empire is becoming more and more serious, and war is only a matter of time. So I think it's better to transfer the assets first for the safety of the family."
Based on the timeline, the war will break out in about five to ten years, with the Heavenly Soul Empire being the first to suffer, followed by the Fighting Spirit Empire.
The Body Sect was also destroyed in an instant. Under the terrifying war machine of the Sun and Moon Empire, the three empires were completely powerless to fight back.
The battle between the two sides was a clear contrast between the era of cold weapons and the era of firearms. If Huo Yuhao's ascension to godhood hadn't delayed unification, and if Tang San hadn't interfered, the Douluo Continent would have been renamed the Sun and Moon Continent, and the future federation wouldn't have been called the Douluo Federation, but the Sun and Moon Federation.
"Why don't you tell us why we shouldn't settle in Mingdu? Tell us how much you know?" Su Xinyuan said calmly, tossing the identity badge back into Su Yu's hand.
"Dad, are you sure you want to know? Things might get complicated here." Looking at Su Xinyuan, Su Yu was considering whether or not to tell him.
Boom!
Su Xinyuan slammed his fist on the table and said indignantly, "Are you looking down on your father? Fine, then go back to where you came from. Don't waste my and your mother's time here."
"I'll tell you, Dad. You should know about the Holy Spirit Cult, right? Mingde Hall has already colluded with the Holy Spirit Cult. Even staying in Mingdu isn't safe. Although Mingdu's development far surpasses other places, it's the most dangerous place."
After saying all this, Su Yu slowly got up and left. The rest is history.
Upon returning to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, Su Yu received a rather peculiar piece of information: Soul Guidance Exchange Competition, Second Match, Nana wins.
In the third match, Luo Yu defeated Ye Xiao.
Three games a day; if the first game hadn't ended in a draw, they would have lost everything in the subsequent ones.
Even more outrageous things are yet to come. According to a rumor from Mingdetang, Luo Yu is to challenge He Caitou in the final match tomorrow.
"I'll leave the matter of the clone to him; I won't get involved. But if things go too smoothly, I don't think it'll be a good thing."
In my dorm room, I casually sorted through some complicated information. Given the current situation, it's probably too late to play this game anymore.
In the Star Dou Great Forest, if Su Yu doesn't reach the Title Douluo level, he shouldn't expect to have a proper talk with the Silver Dragon King; he'll be lucky if he doesn't get swallowed up.
Su Yu's studies at Mingde Hall continued smoothly. He would occasionally audit Monroe's classes, but for the next week, he had no intention of getting involved.
A week later, a bombshell piece of news spread throughout the entire college.
The 31st Soul Guidance Exchange Match: Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy's Luo Yu versus He Cai Tou!
Although it was early morning, the entire Soul Guidance Trial Arena was already packed. Due to the unprecedented level of importance both sides attached to this competition, more than 12,000 students and teachers from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, including Mingde Hall, had gathered here.
To allow everyone to witness this battle, the academy announced a one-day suspension of classes. Even the extremely busy Jing Hongchen attended the competition, which was hosted by the Dean of Students, Lin Jiayi.
For Jing Hongchen, this exchange of sparring, regardless of victory or defeat, has brought unimaginable benefits to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.
In fact, none of them knew that half a year ago, Su had already been able to create a level six soul tool, and his clone inherited all the abilities except for his martial soul. Although he could not use his martial soul like Su Yu, his strength was at least half that of Su Yu. With the help of various soul tools, among those of the same level, apart from someone with a cheat like Huo Yuhao, how many could defeat Su Yu's clone?
Moreover, since their consciousnesses are connected and Su Yu is the main body, as long as the two are close, their thinking and reaction abilities in battle can be said to be twice that of ordinary people. What's more, Su Yu's mental strength has long surpassed that of ordinary people, and even ordinary Soul Douluo cannot compare to him.
This battle was less a battle between Luo Yu and He Caitou, and more a battle between the official members of both sides.
In the eyes of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, the outcome of this battle will determine the outcome of the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament!
The odds offered off-site were also 2 to 1 for He Caitou to win and 1 to 1 for Luo Yu to win.
The reason why He Caitou's win rate is so high is that in terms of physical test data, He Caitou's data far exceeds that of Su Yu. Moreover, Luo Yu is also a level 6 Soul Master, but his Soul Power is only level 48, while He Caitou's Soul Power is as high as level 55.
"They'll have to go to the next round, since they're all so pessimistic about Luo Yu."
Although these people offered moral support to Luo Yu, a large portion of them still honestly bet on He Caitou to win.
Su Yu casually pulled out a gold card in front of many students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy and tossed it to the person in charge of opening the betting pool.
When the person in charge of opening the market received Su Yu's gold card, he almost fainted on the spot from shock.
Ten million gold soul coins!
That was a top-tier gold card worth ten million gold soul coins. Even the person who opened the auction didn't dare to take it, weakly saying that the amount was too large and they couldn't afford it.
"Give me a number you can accept, don't waste my time."
Money is always better, as it will be needed for the development of soul tools and other things in the later stages.
Wouldn't it be foolish to pass up such a great opportunity to make money?
The person opening the betting pool tremblingly announced a rather conservative figure, "One hundred thousand gold soul coins..."
"Alright, 100,000, bet on Falling Feather to win."
After swiping the 100,000 gold soul coins off his gold card, Su went straight to the front row where He Caitou was.
"Su Yu, how confident do you think I am? I'd like to hear your analysis." He Caitou was a little nervous. He was now in a difficult position and had no choice but to face Luo Yu.
Su Yu felt somewhat helpless. "Brother, I can't very well tell you that the person you fought with was me, can I? If I really did, we wouldn't be able to be brothers anymore."
Yes, yes, yes, it's all my fault...
After hesitating for a moment, Su Yu slowly said, "You and Luo Yu are evenly matched..."
It's a 50/50 situation, one of them has to lose anyway, how you play is your business.
"Fifty-fifty? This..."
He Caitou was also somewhat bewildered. In his view, he had received all the resources of the Extreme Individual Soldier Program and had also received great training from the academy. Was he really only able to go toe-to-toe with this sixth-year student of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy?
Are there really people in the world who are even more outrageous than Su Yu at the same level?
Although Su Yu is only a level 47 Soul Master, He Caitou estimates that his actual combat strength is not much worse than his own, at least that's what He Caitou thinks.
Because, in most people's eyes, even if Su Yu is strong, it is impossible for him to improve so quickly in a short period of time. Moreover, Su Yu had taken a break from school for more than a year. This is why, after Su Yu returned to the academy, most people did not care about this legend from two years ago.
Those who probably have a deep impression of Su Yu are only his class and the Shrek Seven Devils.
Su Yu didn't stay at Shrek Academy for very long afterward, spending most of his time in the Sun Moon Empire.
"So, how did this battle start?"
Su Yu was also somewhat puzzled. His clone, Luo Yu, had only received a mission from Mingde Hall to challenge He Cai Tou, the captain of the Shrek exchange student team. Now, he could probably only find out from the person involved.
"They were also using the guise of friendly sparring, but in the Soul Guidance Exchange Tournament with them, we were evenly matched at first. But then they started sending out students from Mingde Hall, some of whom were supposedly pre-selected team members. This led to us losing more than we won in the subsequent matches. In the end, in order to completely destroy our fighting spirit, the Sun Moon Empire sent Luo Yu to challenge me."
He Caitou clenched his fists indignantly. It was clear that many people were unhappy because of the exclusion by the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy. The only one who was happy was probably Su Yu.
However, this kind of life comes at a price: two million gold soul coins and an order to trade with Mingde Hall.
Looking at the indignant He Caitou, Su Yu slowly asked, "And how much do you know about Luo Yu?"
"Huh? Luo Yu, I don't seem to know much about him. I heard he's just a fourth-ring Soul Master, but his Soul Guidance cultivation has reached the sixth level." He Caitou seemed to know nothing about Luo Yu. The only thing he knew was what he heard from other people talking about Luo Yu.
Su Yu pointed to Luo Yu opposite him and said, "According to the information, Luo Yu, who is sitting opposite you now, has a soul power level of 48 and is a level 6 soul master. He once defeated a level 4 soul master when he was a level 3 soul master. Later, when he participated in the Mingde Hall assessment, he defeated level 4 soul master Oshu as a level 3 soul master. After studying at Mingde Hall for a year and a half, he became a level 6 soul master. When he was a level 4 soul master, he had a slight advantage over Meng Hongchen, a level 5 soul king, for a short period of time."
At this point, Su Yu paused and asked, "Would you like to continue listening?"
He Caitou opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single syllable for a long time. Finally, after a long silence, he nodded blankly.
"He's still a regular member of the next Sun Moon Empire team. If nothing unexpected happens, you should meet a level seven Soul Master and a six-ring Soul Emperor in about three years. Right now, if it's just a contest of Soul Tools, your chances of winning are conservatively estimated at 50%, because can you be sure that Shrek Academy can compare to Mingde Hall?"
After Su Yu finished speaking, He Caitou almost collapsed to the ground, beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
"It's over, even you say so, doesn't that mean I'm bound to lose that match? Su Yu, why don't you go up..."
He Caitou's already dark face turned even darker, and this time it really broke his defenses.
"I'm not going. I've been cultivating in the family for over a year, which has delayed me so much, both in terms of soul guidance and martial soul. Even if I'm a bit stronger than other students in the same grade, it doesn't mean I'm stronger than you. I'm not going."
Su Yu rejected He Caitou's suggestion without any politeness. What a joke! He's playing against himself. I'm not going to mess up my perfectly good game.
This battle alone will completely clear Luo Yu's name, as it concerns Shrek Academy's honor and reputation.
What do Shrek's glory and reputation have to do with me? The old man I cared about is gone, and I've repaid you all what I owed you. Besides Wang Dong, what else do I care about?
"Brother, don't feel burdened. We came here to learn. A win or loss doesn't prove anything. If our soul guides were really ahead of theirs, I don't think we would need to come here to exchange and learn. Don't take things that don't belong to us too seriously. Face reality."
After listening to Su Yu's words, He Caitou nodded heavily, then turned and walked towards the Soul Guidance Trial Arena. Opposite him was a boy even more immature than himself.
Looking at the boy's age, He Caitou was surprised to find that the other person was actually a year or two younger than himself!
Unless Huo Yuhao returns, given Su Yu's current condition, who else can defeat Luo Yu in the next competition!
No wonder he was selected by Mingdetang as a formal member of the next competition. Now it seems that this is an even greater danger for Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen.
It seems I need to have a serious talk with Ms. Fanyu about this.
As the host began speaking, the competition officially commenced.
