Lord Zhang Fei

The host only introduced the top ten colleges, and he did not introduce them one by one. If these schools were all introduced, there would be no need to do anything else on this day. After the tenth team entered the venue, the remaining more than 3,000 college teams entered the venue one after another.

Half an hour later, the originally empty stadium was already filled with more than 20,000 participating teams. They saw that on the field, each team of six players wore different school uniforms, some exquisite, some luxurious, some brocade clothes and jade pendants, and some short spirits.

All kinds of school flags with different patterns wdre automatically in the arena, showing their pride. Even being able to stand here and participate in the competition of the spiritual master colleges in the whole continent was enough to prove the strength of these colleges. You must know that there were even more spiritual academies with low-level teachers who were not even qualified to stand here!

During the entire admission ceremony for more than half an hour, the host had been floating in the air and giving a simple explanation. It could be seen that this old man not only had a high level of cultivation, but also knew a lot of things about various colleges. It was believed that there were not many people who could do this in the whole continent.

When all the contestants had entered the venue, the host said in a strong voice: “Now for the second item of the opening ceremony, please stand up!”

As soon as the voice went silent, more than 100,000 people stood densely on the stand. It showed that there were so many spiritual masters who come to watch the game, and it also showed the profound background of the entire human race.

They saw the host dodging back to the stage, facing the sky, kneeling on one knee, landing on the right knee, pressing the left shoulder with the right hand, and said loudly. “I swear by the honorable qualifications of the spiritual master, I swear to the death to exorcise the demons, protect the human beings, and I will always enjoy peace and prosperity!”

All the spiritual masters in the audience also knelt to the ground along with the host. Every time the host said a word, hundreds of thousands of people followed and shouted, and the voice resounded through the sky. Even the spiritual masters in the main stadium fell to one knee when they heard the sound, swearing to the sky.

.....

This was the cohesive spirit of human beings. It was precisely because of this firm belief and the strength of unity that human beings could reach today’s prosperous world step by step in the era when the demons were raging.

After the oath was read, the host broke the skin of the middle finger of his right hand and drew a bloodstain under his eyes, in order to swear his determination. Hundreds of thousands of people also drew two bloodstains under their eyes. For a time, the entire venue was filled with blood and energy.

Then, the host said. “Okay, the ceremony is over. Now, please let His Majesty the Emperor come on stage to give the opening speech of the competition. Welcome everyone!”

As soon as the host finished speaking, the door of the huge hall behind the stage opened, and two rows of fully-armored warriors walked out from inside. With the samurai one point left and right, a man and a woman walked out from the center of the gate. From the costumes of the two, it could be determined that this was the current emperor and queen.

The emperor and the queen appeared to be both in their forties, but their real age could not be seen on the surface. Because almost all members of the royal family were from spiritual masters, even if they were seventy or eighty years old, they were only in their 40s and 50s from the outside. And when you were young, the higher your cultivation, the more you could maintain your youthful appearance.

The appearance of the emperor and the queen immediately drew warm applause from the audience. As ordinary people, the chance to see the emperor was rare in this life, and participating in the opening and closing ceremonies of the spiritual master competition was an excellent opportunity to see the emperor’s dragon face.

The emperor took the queen’s hand, and while waving to the audience, he walked to the stage. After standing still, the emperor made a gesture to everyone, and the audience suddenly became quiet.

The emperor said in a loud voice, “Welcome to this event. The team of spiritual masters is the main force for us to fight against the demons. To be an excellent spiritual master is the goal of every human being. Today, I am very happy. I’m glad to see so many excellent spiritual masters participating in the competition. You are the hope for the future of mankind. I hope that through this competition, you can grow into a real and powerful spiritual master, in order to protect the prosperity of our mankind. Fight! In the end, expel the demons from our world, and mankind will win!”

“Victory! Victory! Victory! Victory!”

The emperor’s short words immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the audience, and shouts continued to hover over the audience. The emperor and the queen returned to the hall behind the stage with the shouts of the people. The direction of the hall facing the arena was made of crystal glass, and everything on the arena could be clearly seen inside.

When the emperor was speaking, the empress kept her eyes fixed on one direction under the stage, and when she left, she looked a few more times in that direction with some reluctance. And this direction happened to be where Fei and everyone stood.

Ziyu stood beside Fei and whispered to Fei, “Hey, Fei! Did you notice? The queen was staring at me just now. Has your charm value increased again?”

Fei tilted his body slightly and said softly, “You can save it! Which green onion do you think you are? The queen is looking at the people of the Forbidden Academy next to you, so don’t be too affectionate!”

At this moment, among the members of the Forbidden Academy standing next to him, Ruo Feng was looking at Mei’er out of the corner of his eye.

Bu Yueyue touched Mei’er’s arm lightly and said, “Hey, Mei’er! That eldest young master is sneaking a look at you again! Mei’er, what’s wrong with you?”

But Mei’er’s eyes were red at this time, and tears were clearly flashing in her eyes, as if she had just cried. After Bu Yueyue asked, Mei’er quickly wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes with her sleeve, and said to Bu Yueyue, “It’s okay, it’s because the light is too strong, and it hurts my eyes.”

Bu Yueyue said suspiciously, “Oh!” Although she didn’t ask any more questions, she knew in her heart that Mei’er must be hiding something from her. However, since Mei’er didn’t want to talk, at this time, Bu Yueyue didn’t ask much.

Soon, after the cheers from the audience ended, all the contestants withdrew from the venue. Followed by some routine performances at the opening ceremony, but after Fei and everyone left, they returned to the villa together with Bu Wenle and Lao Caitou.

Because what happened after that had nothing to do with everyone, everyone just waited for the half-month preliminaries to end in time to participate in the finals.

Therefore, during this period of time, everyone practiced hard again. Especially Fei, after obtaining the secret book of light and shadow, he studied the magic tricks in the book every day. Based on his current cultivation, he could already practice three shadow magic tricks.

It was just because the current time was pressing, there was not much time for Fei to strengthen the practice and application of these magics. Therefore, Fei took all the time every day to practice continuously, and at the same time, he also practiced the cooperation with the team, so that the magic skills could exert the greatest power.

In this way, everyone quickly spent more than half a month in the practice of not hearing anything outside the window. As for the cultivation of shadow magic, Fei was finally able to do some simple applications as he wanted, but he was still a long way from reaching the proficiency like an arm and a finger.

Early this morning, Bu Wenle called everyone together and said to everyone: “Tomorrow is the day of the finals, everyone will have a good rest today. In a while, I will go to the competition management committee to draw a number to determine the finals tomorrow. After the opponent, collect their information by the way. Everyone can do whatever they want today, but don’t act alone to avoid accidents. Mei’er, you will come with me later!”

Mei’er glanced at Bu Wenle strangely, then agreed without saying much.
