From all directions, numerous gazes were fixated, especially Gu Yuena's, which burned with particular intensity.
The Ice Emperor tried not to make eye contact, aware of the gap in their cultivation level, but she couldn't help wanting to complain in her heart... "Big sister, you've been with Lin Yi for two nights now, is it necessary to hate me this much?"
She could even hear the sound of Gu Yuena's teeth clashing with hatred.
No, why didn't Gu Yuena come out of Lin Yi's room today?
The Ice Emperor suddenly felt her mind burning... What happened last night?
Lin Yi sat on the stage, looking down below.
The aftermath of yesterday's great battle left the ground in complete disarray, not to mention the damage caused by the skills but also the Godzilla-sized footprints that were horrifying enough.
Fortunately, everything was restored to its original state now, otherwise these guys would be stunned.
Lin Yi: "Is it time now? The opening ceremony of the Soul Master competition?"
Emperor Xueye nodded: "It's time, although it has just started."
He was dressed in rags, with a broken stick in his left hand and a broken bowl in his right, perfectly fitting the appearance of a ragged beggar... to be honest, Lin Yi thought he would dress up in his emperor's attire today, after all, there was an opening ceremony for a big competition, and as the emperor, he should make an appearance.
But unexpectedly, Emperor Xueye was ready to forsake his imperial image for the sake of those damage bonuses.
If he didn't dress as a beggar today, he wouldn't be able to use the bonus for the next week, as the rules strictly demanded.
Lin Yi then looked at Dai Ben, who stepped forward and respectfully reported: "According to the scouts, the opening ceremony in the Xing Luo Competition Zone is also ready, and now they're just waiting for us to start by using that... that broadcast form together."
What Dai Ben was referring to was Lin Yi's space channel, which projected a live grand screen that displayed the scenes from all three regions for the entire continent to see.
Lin Yi nodded: "Good, let's begin."
He gestured forward, and everyone stepped back, as a seven-colored brilliance, rather than the usual silver, swept across Lin Yi's palm.
This opening ceremony of the Soul Master competition was quite important. Strictly speaking, it was the first time Lin Yi would truly present himself to all the creatures of the continent, so he decided to borrow the System's abilities and mix in some magic. Merely relying on space elements wouldn't be enough to spread this "grand screen" across the entire continent.
Soon, two balls of seven-colored brilliance appeared in the sky, expanding rapidly and revealing the views within the arenas of Xingluo City and Heaven Dou City Competition Area.
Zhu Zhuyun and Miss Ning were overwhelmed with emotion. Although they had only been away from home for about ten days, seeing the people of their respective cities again stirred some warmth in their hearts.
After all, this was Soul City, and considering the relationships between the three places, people might even believe they had been kidnapped by Martial Soul Hall over these past days.
At this moment, as the opening ceremony was just beginning, the hosts and the audience at both venues looked up, shocked and excited, at the gradually expanding spectacular rainbow scene above them.
The host from Tian Dou spoke excitedly: "Here it comes! This ability is truly magical! Sitting in Heaven Dou City, we can see the faraway Soul City and Xing Luo City!"
The Star Luo host responded just as eagerly: "Indeed, I've long heard that a divine figure named Lin Yi emerged in Soul Land, and seeing him today, Mr. Lin Yi truly is as legendary as the rumors suggest! Today's scene is even clearer than the last time, and the coverage is much wider."
Listening to the hosts flatter each other across the distances, Bi Bidong felt a bit nauseous: "It must have been those two guys' idea, instructing the people on both sides to forcefully praise Senior Lin Yi. Do they really think Senior Lin Yi will be taken in by that?"
Being praised did indeed feel good, Emperor Xueye and Dai Ben knew a thing or two about it... Lin Yi thought expressionlessly.
The opening ceremony had indeed just begun.
In the venues on both sides, the Soul Master Academy teams were making their entrances one after another.
As the hosts from both sides didn't see Lin Yi appear on the "grand screen," they praised him a few rounds and then began introducing the entering teams.
The host from Heaven Dou announced: "Let us turn our attention to the entrance, the first to enter is our Heaven Dou Royal Academy Team One! Team captain Yu Tianheng, Martial Soul Blue Electric Overlord Dragon, Soul Power..."
The host from Star Luo announced: "On our side, the first to enter is the Star Luo Royal Academy Team One! Team captain Davis, Martial Soul Dark Evil Tiger, Soul Power..."
Dai Ben narrowed his eyes.
```
The expression on his son Davis's face clearly showed some displeasure, and his gaze kept shifting to the big screen on the side of Soul City, looking like he had been holding in his frustration until now.
Unfilial, useless!
Your ex-girlfriend Zhu Zhuyun's Martial Soul has evolved into a Dark Evil Tiger, you probably don't know that, do you?
"Next to enter the arena is one of the Five Elements Academy, Thunder College! The captain, Yu Tianheng..."
"Blazing Fire Academy! The captain, Huo Wushuang..."
"Skywater Academy! The captain, Shui Bing'er..."
"Divine Wind College! The captain, Feng XiaoTian..."
"Elephant Armor Academy! The captain, Hu Yanli..."
...
Qian Renxue: "Is this the Five Elements Academy from Tiandou? They look rather ordinary."
Thousand Waves: "How high can their levels be, they are all just a bunch of kids, and besides, we are no longer who we used to be."
After Thousand Waves finished speaking, he glanced at his granddaughter's leg. Early in the morning, he had seen her limping again. Wasn't she already better yesterday? Why was it like this again today?
Just then, the audience in the Tian Dou Competition Area suddenly laughed on the big screen, as if they had seen something amusing.
"Look at their academy uniforms, so ugly!"
"Yeah, why are they shit green?"
"These guys are even wearing masks, really, so pretentious. Are they too ugly to show their faces or something?"
...
Lin Yi looked up.
He smelled the scent of the main character group.
Heaven Dou Host: "Next to enter is the academy named Shrek Academy! The captain, Dai Mubai, Martial Soul Evil Eye White Tiger, Soul Power level 47! Team member Tang San, Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass, Soul Power level 45..."
The audience suddenly paused.
"Blue Silver Grass can be cultivated?"
"It does have a bit of a monster vibe, to actually cultivate Blue Silver Grass to the level of a Soul Ancestor?"
Tang San followed Dai Mubai into the venue, his gaze immediately went to the big screen in the sky, but the "camera" on the side of Soul City was pointed at a crowd of tightly packed normal Soul Masters; the important figures he wanted to see had not yet appeared on the screen, such as Lin Yi, and he hadn't even seen Bi Bidong.
"Where is Lin Yi? Lin Yi? Lin Yi..."
Eager, Ning Rongrong looked up at the sky only to frown in disappointment, and Zhu Zhuqing behind her reminded her, "Keep it down a bit."
"Oh, doesn't everybody want to see Lin Yi today? It's not just me."
Ning Rongrong waved her hand nonchalantly and then laughed, "Hehe, actually I'm looking for dad."
Dai Ben looked at his second son and silently sighed.
For a moment he had thought of letting Dai Mubai take Ying Wei's place in the offensive, but then thought better of it, as it might make Davis even more dissatisfied.
Senior Lin Yi probably wouldn't like to see such a boring and vulgar plot of brothers killing each other unfold before his eyes.
