Chapter 205 I Bet I Win, Twenty Million!_2

She had some guesses about certain matters for a while now, she just hadn't spoken them out loud.

Even though Qin Xiao didn't seem to care much, she could still feel it.

This was called understanding.

Just as Qin Xiao was about to respond to Meng Yiran, the words reached his lips but then he swallowed them back.

"Da da da." A series of sounds reached his ears, and as he looked towards the door, several figures were quickly walking towards them from a distance.

Qin Xiao saw clearly that the person in the lead was wearing a black robe, his frame slender. His complexion was pale without a trace of blood, as if a dead man had just leapt out of a coffin.

It was just that his chilly aura was impossible to ignore.

"Gui Douluo..." A name emerged in his mind.

In the grand Martial Soul Hall, there was likely only one person like this.

At this moment, as Gui Douluo approached, he also noticed Qin Xiao in the room.

So he frowned and asked the guard at the door, "Hey, why is there someone else here? Wasn't it said, no one else is allowed in?"

Just now, having been reprimanded by Bi Bidong in the Pope Hall, Gui Douluo was naturally not in a good mood.

"Replying to the Elder, he is also a member of the Shrek squad, so we let him in,"

the guard at the door answered.

"Nonsense." Gui Douluo retorted, "All 8 members of the Shrek squad are here, how can there be anyone else?"

"He said his name is Qin Xiao and that he's the 9th member of the Shrek squad."

"The 9th member? It seems that the Shrek squad indeed has 9 members..." After listening to the guard, Gui Douluo still couldn't help but mumble.

But in the next moment, his face showed astonishment and shock.

"Wait, the young man in the room is Qin Xiao?"

About the identity of Qin Xiao from Tiandou Empire, he didn't know much.

But from what he did know, it was already shocking enough; Qin Xiao was a Titled Douluo Level powerhouse, even stronger than himself.

Even Qian Jun and Jiang Mo, the guest elders, who were a rank above them, had suffered defeat at the hands of Qin Xiao.

"What's more outrageous is, this kid is actually a member of the Shrek squad?"

"Is there no shame left?"

Meanwhile, Qin Xiao also noticed Gui Douluo's strange gaze and asked casually in the room, "What? You don't want to come in? If you don't want to, then just leave, they need to rest, they don't need disturbances."

The 'they' he referred to was naturally Zhu Zhuqing and the others.

"Ah, this..."

After hearing Qin Xiao's words, Gui Douluo was dumbfounded.

What's going on?

This is Martial Soul Hall, my territory, are you being so domineering in someone else's house?

He felt as if Qin Xiao had usurped his place.

And he couldn't remember how many years it had been since someone talked to him like that.

And the last person who talked to him like that? Their grave grass must be three meters high by now, right?

He instinctively wanted to lash out.

But at that moment, Qin Xiao's voice thundered in his mind like thunder, "Didn't you hear what I said?"

This was a question.

"I—I..." Gui Douluo's momentum vanished completely, utterly suppressed by Qin Xiao.

At this moment, Gui Douluo realized that Qin Xiao was even more formidable than the rumors suggested.

"I didn't say I wouldn't come in," he even felt a little wronged.

Come in then, what's with the aggression?

"Speak, what is it, and leave quickly once you're done," Qin Xiao waved his hand impatiently.

Gui Douluo: "..."

Had this guy always been such a tyrant? It's a miracle he's still alive.

If it weren't for his extraordinary talents and strength, probably his grave grass would indeed be three meters high.

He grumbled internally.

But, he hadn't forgotten the important task Bi Bidong had given him, "I came to tell you, if needed, the finals of the Soul Master competition can be postponed for a few days.

After all, it's due to our negligence that you are in your current state of injury, and Martial Soul Hall is willing to take responsibility. To ensure that you are treated fairly."

"Oh?" Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised.

He hadn't expected Martial Soul Hall to take responsibility so earnestly. This significantly improved his opinion of Martial Soul Hall.

After all, even if Flaming Fire Academy and Godwind Academy regrouped, combining their strongest members into one team for tomorrow's competition, they would still inevitably lose against Martial Soul Hall's Golden Generation.

Thus, for the Martial Soul Academy Team, the Shrek squad was a formidable opponent, and it could be said that Martial Soul Hall had no hope for victory.

Undoubtedly, this was an excellent opportunity for the Martial Soul Academy Team, and perhaps their only chance at victory.

At least that's how outsiders would see it.

To willingly give up such an opportunity was indeed a bold move.

Of course, this was under the assumption that Qin Xiao would not take the field.

Conversely, Gui Douluo also had his doubts, with Qin Xiao, the cheat-player, participating, whether the competition was postponed or not seemed meaningless.

He racked his brains trying to foresee any scenarios where the Martial Soul Academy Team might win, but could not come up with any.

"Your Highness..."

Zhu Zhuqing wanted to speak, but was stopped by Qin Xiao.

"Don't talk, just rest. And don't worry about the competition. After coasting for so long, it's time I stepped on the field and let people know that Shrek has me as a member, too."

After Qin Xiao spoke, everyone's faces were painted with shock.

What?

Her Majesty, taking action personally!

Would there be any suspense in the battle?

Ignoring everyone, Qin Xiao turned his gaze back to Gui Douluo and said, "Please return and tell Pope His Holiness that the competition will proceed as scheduled, we do not need any postponement."
