Capítulo 120: You need more experience
"Lord Martial God, whatever your orders may be, we shall fully comply. Please, speak!"
Meng Shenji bowed to Zhongli respectfully before speaking in a solemn tone.
Respect is mutual.
Zhongli showed them respect, and as the "weaker ones," they needed to have the awareness of their own position.
Bai Baoshan and Zhilin were also nodding vigorously beside him.
The three of them held Zhongli in the highest regard. It wasn't just superficial respect, but a deep admiration from the bottom of their hearts.
Without Zhongli, could they, in their old age, have found such an invaluable disciple like Chi Yu?
Obviously, that would have been impossible.
Zhongli's strength was at least at level ninety-eight, possibly even ninety-nine.
Such a powerful friend displayed none of the arrogance typical of other strong individuals.
Instead, when he spoke with others, he treated them like friends, making no one feel uncomfortable.
It was truly impossible not to feel a deep sense of affection towards him!
"Xue Qinghe," who was sitting beside Zhongli, didn't say a word.
After learning what Zhongli wanted to accomplish, she had originally intended to help solve the problem for him, but he refused.
He said something about personally showing up being more sincere. After all, when you're asking someone for a favor, sending a message wouldn't show much respect.
"Xue Qinghe" cast a faint glance at the three board members.
Whatever your orders may be, we shall fully comply?
If she weren't the fake crown prince, she would have suspected that these three old fools might even abandon the empire and pledge their loyalty to Zhongli.
Could they really be persuaded to betray the Heaven Dou Empire?
"Xue Qinghe" thought to herself with speechless amusement. Their words sure sounded nice.
But believing them? That would be ridiculous.
"The three board members are too kind."
After saying this, Zhongli finally stated the purpose of his visit.
It was simply to secure a spot for the younger generation of the Body Sect to compete.
To participate in the upcoming All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, one needed to be from an accredited advanced academy.
Establishing an advanced academy wasn't difficult for the Body Sect at present.
However, for now, the Body Sect had no need for such an academy.
Perhaps they might establish one in the future, but now was not the time.
The three board members were momentarily stunned. The Body Sect wanted to "borrow" Heaven Dou Royal Academy's spot for the tournament?
This…
This was a huge opportunity!
After just a brief moment of consideration, the three of them broke into wide smiles.
The Body Sect borrowing Heaven Dou Royal Academy's spot essentially meant that they would represent both the Academy and the Heaven Dou Empire in the tournament!
The glory would not only belong to the Body Sect but also to the Royal Academy and the Empire!
Though they didn't know just how powerful the younger generation of the Body Sect was, did anyone really need to question the judgment of Lord Martial God?
Their prized disciple was already the perfect example.
With that thought in mind, Meng Shenji and the others exchanged glances before saying, "Lord Martial God, there is no issue with this. We agree to your request."
"The young soul masters of your sect can join Chi Yu in the Royal Battle Team, and we'll directly send them to the finals."
Zhongli was slightly stunned upon hearing this, a bit confused.
Sending them directly to the finals with the Royal Battle Team?
In each tournament, Heaven Dou Empire, Star Luo Empire, and Spirit Hall had one seeded team that didn't need to participate in the qualifiers or knockout stages, and they were directly sent to the finals.
The seeded team for the Heaven Dou Empire was called the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Seeing Zhongli's confusion, Meng Shenji stroked his beard and said, "Rest assured, Lord Martial God. This decision was made after careful deliberation on our part."
"The Royal Battle Team previously lost to the Shrek Seven Devils."
"Perhaps it was due to underestimating them, but a loss is a loss!"
"Even if they qualify as a seeded team, they can't bring honor to the Empire or the Academy."
After saying this, Meng Shenji and the other two exchanged glances again and smiled knowingly.
Their original plan had been to let Chi Yu join the Royal Battle Team as captain.
With her, this year's tournament was sure to be a victory.
With her around, the quality of the teammates doesn't matter much.
Of course, she was their prized disciple.
When it came to selecting teammates for their prized disciple, naturally, they would choose the best and the strongest.
The current Royal Battle Team was already the face of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and frankly, there wasn't a better option.
If there were, then the members of the Royal Battle Team wouldn't be irreplaceable.
From the perspective of the Heaven Dou Empire, Zhongli wasn't just the leader of the Body Sect; he was also a guest elder of the Crown Prince, and more importantly, the Martial God Douluo.
Cooperating with him was a great opportunity for both the Empire and the Academy.
It was like sending a signal to the world: the Body Sect and the Heaven Dou Empire had a very close relationship!
Otherwise, how could the Royal Battle Team consist entirely of members from the Body Sect?
As for Yu Tianheng and the others, having lost to the Shrek Seven Devils, they still needed more experience!
As for being automatically advanced? Maybe next time... or in their next life!
They didn't have better options before, but now, they only wanted to choose the strongest!
The original Royal Battle Team would now become the Royal Battle Second Team!
After a moment of silence, Zhongli finally spoke, "Thank you, board members."
"There's no need to thank us!"
The three board members wore expressions of grievance. To be able to interact with a powerful figure like Zhongli was their honor.
But Zhongli was being far too polite!
If it were any other Titled Douluo, they wouldn't expect thanks. In fact, if they received anything more than a cold attitude, it would already be a blessing.
In the world of Douluo, the strong were revered, and the weak had no say.
The strong had the right to be proud, while the weak could only endure, no matter how uncomfortable it made them.
If a commoner were to get angry, all they could do was get angry!
After Zhongli, "Xue Qinghe," and Paimon left, the members of the Royal Battle Team arrived at the board members' office.
"What?"
"You want us all to move to the Royal Battle Second Team?"
Yu Feng's eyes widened in disbelief.
These three old geezers... Did they even hear what they were saying?
They were the finest members of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, both in terms of strength and background.
But now, these old men were telling them to go to the second team?
"Board Member Meng, we need an explanation!"
Yu Tianheng's face was as cold as ice.
Because of Chi Yu, he had already prepared to step back and serve as vice-captain.
There was no other choice—the cat-girl was simply terrifying.
Even he, Yu Tianheng, had to admit his submission.
He had no objections to her becoming the captain of the Royal Battle Team.
But now, these old geezers were saying the entire team should move to the second team?
Fine, fine, fine!
Did they really think they wouldn't get angry?
"Board Member Meng, if you don't give us an explanation, the next ones to come here won't be us!"
Dugu Yan directly issued a threat, her eyes filled with cold intent, like a venomous snake waiting for its prey.
The members of the Royal Battle Team all had significant power behind them.
Especially Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan!
One was the grandson of Yu Yuanzhen, and the other was the granddaughter of Dugu Bo.
These were connections to Titled Douluo, not something Heaven Dou Royal Academy could afford to offend.
Hearing this, Meng Shenji's expression remained unchanged, though inwardly he shook his head. These so-called "spoiled brats" didn't disappoint, even going so far as to threaten the board members.
He glanced at the Royal Battle Team members. Only Shi Mo, Shi Mo, and Ye Lingling appeared calm.
Even the usually composed Oslo was clearly furious.
"An explanation? Do you really want to hear one?"
"???"
Meng Shenji's light remark left them unsure of what to make of it.
What did that mean?
Before Yu Tianheng and the others could say anything, Meng Shenji continued, "Indeed, you are outstanding among the younger generation and serve as the face of Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"But, you still need more experience!"
