Capítulo 145: 142, New Regulations Announced for the Soul Master Tournament! [First Update]_1
Ning Fengzhi brought the miniaturized Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda up to his eyes for a closer look and indeed, through a layer of semi-transparent glaze, he could see the tiny figures inside.
If one couldn't release an attack from outside, then could one possibly shake the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda to punish those inside?
This thought merely flickered through Ning Fengzhi's mind. Uncle Jian had already had a tiring day, it would be better not to bother him further.
Ning Fengzhi suddenly said with a smile,
"Uncle Jian, I'll give the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda a shake from the outside. You can tell me what it feels like inside."
Chen Xin: ?
"There will be no sensation. The interior is actually akin to a different space altogether. No matter what happens on the outside, there will be no feeling inside."
Lin Yi explained.
His words suddenly sparked a thought for Ning Fengzhi.
Could the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda also be regarded as an absolutely safe haven for protection?
With this thought, Ning Fengzhi became even more excited.
This reward was too valuable!
He tossed the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda into the air, where it spun and enlarged. A beam of light flashed below, and Chen Xin reappeared on the platform.
"Uncle Jian, do you feel any discomfort?"
Ning Fengzhi immediately went up to him.
"Except for the moment when the Sect Master talked about shaking the pagoda, which gave Chen Xin quite a scare, there's nothing amiss,"
Chen Xin replied with a smile.
"Good, good, as long as there's nothing wrong."
The two walked down from the stand, with Ning Fengzhi holding his Martial Soul as if it were a precious treasure, rather than returning it.
At the moment, he looked as though he was ready to confine anyone he disliked inside it, bursting with vigor!
Simultaneously, the Star Luo Emperor, Dai Ben, suddenly became teary-eyed.
Damn it, after such a long wait, it was finally their turn!
It felt like an eternity!
Bi Ji was obediently standing behind Gu Yuena, massaging her shoulders. Seeing Dai Ben step up, she said with a smile, "Soon, Your Majesty, after this ugly human's turn is over, it will be our turn."
Dai Ben suddenly turned, frowning.
What?! Did you hear that?!
Bi Ji stopped her movements in fright, but Gu Yuena countered with a cold stare.
"Human, do you need me to teach you what speed is?"
Dai Ben stiffened and quickly scurried to the stands.
It was truly difficult to imagine how majestic he was in the Xingluo Empire, but here in the gathering of the powerful in Soul City, he was as insignificant as a little kitten.
Especially Lin Yi standing on the stage, whose strength overturned all his previous understanding.
However, if a dispute occurred at this moment, he guessed that only Lin Yi could protect him.
After all, although Lin Yi's power was terrifying and his demeanor cold, he was also absolutely fair and gave a sense of absolute security.
Lin Yi was like a blade restraining all the powerful individuals present. With him around, no Soul Master dared to act rashly.
Even the woman with silver hair and purple eyes just now.
Seeing Dai Ben approach, Lin Yi asked,
"Dai Ben, do you agree with the decision to conduct the Soul Master Competition under the new rules?"
Dai Ben immediately bowed, "Reporting to Senior, yes, the number of competitors from each academy will rise from 7 to 14, with no age restrictions for participants."
Lin Yi nodded and amplified his voice for the subsequent announcement, as it not only concerned the rulers of the three regions, but the upcoming Soul Master Competition would be a grand event involving the entire continent's forces.
Everyone present might have a chance to participate in the competition.
"I need you to widely publicize my exploits in both Tiandou and Star Dou before the start of the Soul Master Competition. There's no need to exaggerate; just tell the truth."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Dai Ben, while also glancing at Bi Bidong and Emperor Xueye.
"What did the three of you decide on how to arrange matters for me?"
Dai Ben hesitated for a moment, then said, "We haven't made a final decision. There was a disagreement over whether you should be involved in the entire tournament process or just join in the later stages."
Lin Yi pondered for a while.
"Here's what we'll do then, I won't participate in the preliminary matches, and let those follow the original rules. I will join from the knockout stages onwards, with the new rules applying, and the venue will be directly switched to Soul City."
"From the knockout stages onward, the scoring mechanism will be determined by the extent of damage I measure. The finals will follow the same rule, where the team that inflicts the highest total amount of damage will be the winner."
"As for the prize for the ultimate victor, there's no need for Martial Soul Hall to contribute. I, Lin Yi, will provide three gold level rewards as the grand prize."
Lin Yi had barely finished speaking when the entire venue fell into a deathly silence.
Shock filled everyone's expressions.
Woah! Gold level rewards!!
Gold level rewards that haven't appeared up to now!
At that moment, Gu Rong suddenly asked, "Senior? I just heard you say the Soul Master Contest is no longer limited by age. Can people like Chen Xin and me also participate?"
Lin Yi nodded, "Yes, you can represent whichever academy you're associated with, as long as the participating team from that academy ensures a maximum of 14 people, but at least three of them must be junior members."
Actually, it was completely possible to stipulate that all 14 participants could be non-junior members, as younger students would definitely not inflict as much damage as non-students like Chenxin Guron.
But after all, this was a continent-wide contest for elite students from senior Soul Master academies, and it would be a bit too much if no junior members participated.
Chrysanthemum Douluo suddenly scratched his head, "The Martial Soul Hall seed team probably doesn't need so many elders to get involved. So can I join another academy to participate? After all, I am a Titled Douluo; surely other academies would welcome me."
Lin Yi continued nodding, "Yes, as long as the academy agrees, you can participate as a specially invited member."
"Holy cow! I love you, Senior Lin Yi!"
Thousand Waves then asked, "Senior, can we use the rewards we obtain from you in the Soul Master Contest against you?"
"Of course, you can. In the days leading up to the Soul Master Contest, you can strive to obtain artifacts that boost damage from me, increasing your chances of winning the contest," Lin Yi replied.
Thousand Waves was instantly dumbfounded.
Does that not mean that the Deity Experience Card could be used as well?!
When someone from the Martial Soul Hall representative team brings out a Deity Experience Card, their total damage output would skyrocket!
Dammit, which team could surpass the damage inflicted by a god!
Thousand Waves suddenly felt that the three gold level rewards would definitely belong to the Martial Soul Hall!
Because Bi Bidong has the Rakshasa God Experience Card!
"Master, what are they talking about? I don't understand," Bi Ji asked in confusion.
Gu Yuena also shook her head, indicating she was not sure either.
"It's their continent-wide elite contest for senior academies of Soul Masters; it's just that the competition format is going to change because Senior Lin Yi is joining," Di Tian explained as he joined them.
Turning to him, Gu Yuena asked, "Soul Master Contest? Can we participate? I heard there are gold-level rewards, which should be quite impressive, right?"
With her fists clenched in surprise, Bi Ji said, "Of course, it's impressive! Master, have you forgotten? The gold level is the highest level of reward, and not a single one has appeared so far!"
"...So can we participate?"
Di Tian quickly nodded, "It seems we can, but we have to represent some academy as special invitees..."
"Bi Ji, do you know any human Soul Master academies?" Gu Yuena turned to look at her, and Goose Goose shook its head like a rattle.
Di Tian shook his head too, and Gu Yuena followed suit with a shake of her head.
Done for, they were three ferocious beasts that had stayed cooped up in the Aquipeia Forest; how would they know any human Soul Master academies!
Lin Yi's next words were like a bucket of cold water poured over them.
"Silence, please."
"First, during the Soul Master Contest promotion period, which starts from the first day I participate, I will decline all treasure attacks from non-competitors."
"So, during the promotion to finals period, those who want to continue attacking for treasures, try to join an academy and become one of the 14 members of a team. If you truly have no academy connections, then strive to become a special invitee for an academy that's advanced from the preliminaries."
Hearing this, Gu Yuena and the others looked dejected.
As ferocious beasts, were they supposed to go begging human academies to take them in?
And it had to be academies that had advanced from the preliminaries...
After finishing, Lin Yi continued, "Second, the sole condition for winning the Soul Master Contest is damage dealt, so please try to acquire more artifacts that can increase your damage before the contest begins."
Woah!
We definitely also want to obtain more artifacts that increase damage!
But with only two attacks per person per day, the opportunities are too few.
And there are always people like Dai Ben who hog... who stick with Lin Yi and don't attack!
"Human Emperor, what are you waiting for if not attacking?" Gu Yuena's questioning voice suddenly rang from below the stage.
