Chapter 3191: Qin Ming's Reminder_1
```
Heaven Dou Royal Academy!!
Dugu Yan first glanced at Yu Tianheng, then at Yu Feng...
Seeing that they hadn't spoken, she couldn't help but break the silence, "Tian Heng, Yu Feng, tomorrow is the time for the friendly competition. Why don't you seem anxious at all?"
From their cheeks, she couldn't make out the slightest bit of anxiety, which was completely different from her own!
As soon as she had spoken, both men came back to their senses...
Yu Feng replied with a light laugh, "Yan Zi, no matter how anxious we are, don't we still have to participate? So being anxious is useless, it only brings great psychological pressure!"
"Moreover, with our strength, even if we don't win the final championship, we should be able to achieve a good result!"
He had once visited the Five Great Elemental Academies and, in terms of the overall strength of the students, Heaven Dou Royal Academy was indeed superior!
Yu Tianheng rarely nodded in agreement, "Indeed, Yu Feng makes a good point. Worrying too much will only increase the pressure and might even affect our performance!"
"Yan Zi, it's best for you to calm your mind."
Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, then said somewhat awkwardly, "Is that so? It seems that both you, Tian Heng, and Yu Feng are very confident about this friendship competition. Maybe I am overthinking it!"
After a pause, she changed the subject, "Just... Why hasn't Teacher Qin arrived yet? Didn't he tell us to wait here?"
Yu Tianheng pondered for a moment and guessed, "Teacher Qin is always punctual, and he hardly ever arrives late. There must have been some important matter that has delayed him!"
Yu Feng agreed with this view, "Mhm, let's just wait here a bit longer. Anyway, no matter how hard we train today, the effect on tomorrow's battle will be minimal!"
Seeing that both of them had spoken thus, Dugu Yan naturally couldn't say much more and chose to agree, "Alright then!"
Finally, another quarter of an hour later, Qin Ming appeared in front of everyone, in a hurry...
He said with full apology, "Sorry, I'm a bit late, I made you all wait!"
Yu Tianheng replied calmly, "Teacher Qin, don't worry about it, we haven't been waiting for long!"
Yu Feng and Dugu Yan affirmed this...
Seeing this, Qin Ming quietly breathed a sigh of relief, "Is that so? That's good then!"
He thought that Yu Tianheng and the others would have complaints about waiting for so long, but it seemed not to be the case!
Yu Feng's eyes flickered once, and he asked, "Teacher Qin, you usually wouldn't be late. There must have been something important today, right?"
Qin Ming didn't deny it but went along with the question, "Yes, there were indeed some matters today, so I was delayed!"
The other's curiosity intensified, and he asked, "Oh? Can you tell us?"
Yu Feng and Dugu Yan looked at each other, both not saying anything, evidently wanting to know what had happened as well!
Qin Ming glanced at them and patiently explained, "It's actually not anything important. It's just that Emperor Xue Ye has just sent someone to convey a message, the venue for the friendly competition has been set at Martial Soul City!"
The group's eyes widened in surprise, exclaiming, "Martial Soul City??"
If they were to name the place they least wanted to go, that would definitely be Martial Soul City!
Dugu Yan couldn't help but say, "Teacher Qin, if I remember correctly, wasn't the friendship competition initially planned to be held in the imperial palace? Why the sudden change?"
That time they went to Martial Soul City, quite a few things had happened!
```
"I certainly have no interest in going there again!"
Qin Ming shook his head, "As for that, I'm not very clear either, perhaps Emperor Xue Ye felt something was inappropriate, and that's why the location was changed!"
Yu Tianheng snapped coldly, "Hmph, this must have something to do with Martial Soul City, otherwise why would Emperor Xue Ye suddenly change the location!"
Yu Feng also pursed his lips, "Mmm, the venue for the friendship match is decided jointly by the Martial Soul Hall and the Tian Dou Imperial Family, I'm afraid Emperor Xue Ye has no way to forcibly hold it in the imperial palace!"
Qin Ming seemed to catch the underlying meaning and expressed his doubt, "You all seem to be very dissatisfied with Martial Soul City??"
Yu Tianheng answered without a second thought, "Of course, Martial Soul City is the place where Pope Hall is located, not to mention how dangerous it is!!"
Yu Feng glanced at Dugu Yan beside him, "Mmm, back then Yan Zi also went there once and then..."
The latter coughed, reminding him, "Yu Feng, don't bring up that matter again in the future, I've already thought it through!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Ming stepped forward to stand before them, and seriously explained, "Tian Heng, Yan Zi, Yu Feng, regarding safety, you can rest assured, because this time for the friendship match, not only will teachers from the Five Great Elemental Academies accompany us, but even Emperor Xue Ye himself will attend in person!"
"As long as nothing that harms the interests of Martial Soul City is done, Martial Soul Hall wouldn't dare to do anything in our face!!"
He believed that as long as Martial Soul Hall had any sense, they would definitely not make a move on students from various academies during the friendship matches!
Otherwise, they would certainly incur the wrath of Emperor Xue Ye!
Hearing this explanation, the three of them—Yu Tianheng and the others—fell silent...
After a long while, Yu Feng was the first to speak, "Since Teacher Qin has put it this way, I presume that going to Martial Soul City this time, as long as we follow the rules, there shouldn't be any great danger!"
"Don't you all agree?"
Even though Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan were very reluctant to admit it, they still nodded their heads...
With Emperor Xue Ye personally attending, how could they possibly refuse?
Qin Ming didn't dwell on the issue any further, and again spoke, "It seems that you have all come to accept this fact, then next, there is another matter I must discuss!"
"That is... if you wish to claim the ultimate victory, the chances are exceedingly slim!"
Yu Feng looked puzzled, "Teacher Qin, why do you say that? Hasn't the match not even started yet?"
The friendship matches hadn't even begun, yet Teacher Qin had already made such a statement—it wasn't like him at all!
Yu Tianheng was also full of unwillingness, "Yeah, Teacher Qin, we don't think we're inferior to anyone else!"
Dugu Yan was somewhat displeased, "Teacher Qin, aren't you boosting the morale of others and destroying our own prestige?"
Qin Ming clenched his fists tightly, his teeth gritted, "I know it's not fair to you to say this, but it is the truth!"
"Have you forgotten about Xu Sheng? His strength is mysterious and inscrutable, and no one knows the extent of his abilities yet!"
"If you come up against him, even if the three of you joined forces, you would likely be defeated in an instant!"
In a flash, the expressions of Yu Tianheng and the others became rigid...
Indeed, if they really encountered Xu Sheng, their chances of winning were not even one in ten—no, not even one in a hundred!!
The atmosphere in the entire space turned heavy all of a sudden, as if one could hear each other's heartbeats...
