Chapter 418 First Turn Kill
"My name is Cai Hangshun, and I am an ordinary soul master living in Tiandou City."
Whenever I introduce myself like this, my superficial friends will always laugh. Their laughter is so loud that it often attracts people who are not familiar with me.
Those who are not familiar with me always ask: "Hangshun, you are obviously a noble soul master, and you work so hard, why do you call yourself ordinary?"
I understand what they mean.
A twenty-fourth-level great soul master can get ten gold soul coins for free in the Wuhun Hall every month. And the purchasing power of one gold soul coin can allow a family of three to live worry-free for several months.
Ten gold soul coins per month, the once famous "master" Yu Xiaogang only has this amount of monthly income.
I guess if I am not in Tiandou City, I will definitely live a luxurious life.
Of course, the premise is not to buy any expensive soul master supplies, that is, herbs, soul guides, etc.
But I will never leave Tiandou City.
Usually to avoid trouble, I always answer with a smile: "Tiandou City is the second largest city in Douluo Continent after Wuhun City. It includes soul masters from various colleges and sects. Soul masters living in the city account for nearly half of the total population of Tiandou City."
"I am a level 24 great soul master, and I am indeed very ordinary."
After hearing what I said, everyone laughed, and I laughed too.
Only friends who really care about me can know the truth that I am living in poverty but will never leave Tiandou City after a simple thought.
The reason is very simple. I like fighting souls and am a senior and fanatical fighting soul enthusiast.
Tiandou City has the highest level of soul masters in the Tiandou Empire, and the byproduct is the highest level of fighting soul competitions.
As a fighting soul enthusiast, how could I abandon the wonderful fighting souls in the Tiandou Great Fighting Soul Arena and go to watch those low-quality fighting soul competitions in the Soto Great Fighting Soul Arena.
For this reason, I also joined the Tiandou City Guards, just to earn more money for watching the fighting soul competition tickets.
Until one day, I saw in the new issue of Tiandou Weekly that His Highness Xue Qinghe took the lead in organizing the "Tiandou Star Contest", and also saw that the weekly was recruiting full-time reporters familiar with fighting spirits.
At that moment, I realized that I could no longer live in a daze. The opportunity I had dreamed of finally came to me.
The huge room with an area of about 300 square meters was particularly bright under the illumination of many soul guide lights. On one side, a calf-high rostrum was built, with two huge long tables side by side, each with a small table sign with the names of the two academies.
One was printed with "Tiandou Royal Academy" and the other was printed with "Xiangjia Academy".
There was a huge golden plaque on the wall behind, and the five golden characters "Pre-match Press Conference" against the black background particularly highlighted the unique hobbies of the upstarts of noble status.
Those who knew clearly that this was the Tiandou Empire, and those who didn't know thought they had gone back to Dubai.
Gu You secretly complained: "It's great to be rich, damn feudal remnants. ’
As the saying goes, a man who eats someone’s food will be soft-hearted, and a man who takes someone’s money will be short-handed. As of today, Gu You has not earned any money from the Tiandou Empire, and the cost of research is all earned by hard work in writing articles, so he is naturally qualified to complain about the Tiandou Empire.
By the way, he still regrets that he should not be lazy in the details. A good fighting spirit competition has been made like a competition of wealth by the big gold color of the local tyrants’ aesthetics.
The matter is done, and he can only take a deep breath. Trying to ignore the huge plaque that does not conform to the aesthetics, he followed Qin Ming to the long table with "Tiandou Royal Academy" and sat down.
Then he nodded to the leader of Xiangjia Academy and Hu Yanli, who had arrived long ago and were a little impatient.
Hu Yanli seemed to have a good temper. Seeing Gu You take the initiative to say hello, he also nodded to Gu You.
The leader of Xiangjia Academy was not so good-tempered, and rolled his eyes at the two of them without disguising.
The audience was dark, and it was estimated that there were hundreds of people. After the two of them sat down, the emcee who was hosting the pre-match press conference for the first time in his life raised his hand and pressed it lightly, signaling everyone to be quiet as soon as possible.
"The pre-match press conference between Tiandou Royal Academy Team 1 and Xiangjia Academy is now officially starting."
"Please raise your hands to ask questions."
As soon as the host finished speaking, a large group of people raised their hands in unison, fearing that they would not get the opportunity to ask questions if they raised their hands too late.
For half a month, Gu You successively published several articles in the Tiandou Weekly under the name of Xue Qinghe.
Among them, the specific procedures of the pre-match press conference and post-match interviews were included, as well as an article titled "Professional Ethics of Journalists".
The term "journalist" was first defined in Douluo Continent. Skip the stage of wild growth and directly obtain the clearest attitude.
It is not appropriate to use it to tarnish this land by making things difficult and mocking those who win glory for the country.
To prevent trouble before it happens, Gu You believes that with this article, even if the nature of the work will still drive reporters to pursue popularity, they can be well restrained under the restrictions of power.
The host followed the procedure and pointed at the person below with some discomfort: "You, the one wearing a black and white striped short-sleeved shirt."
Cai Hangshun, who was sitting in the direction of the finger, was stunned and looked around blankly.
Who is it? He didn't see anyone wearing a black and white striped short-sleeved shirt.
"Hey, stop looking, it's you."
Realizing that he seemed to have pointed at a fool, the host's voice became a little impatient: "The one from Tiandou Weekly."
'Who is Tiandou Weekly? '
The above was Cai Hangshun's first reaction.
'I am from Tiandou Weekly. '
The above was Cai Hangshun's second reaction.
His butt was ejected from the seat, and Cai Hangshun replied loudly: "Ah, yes."
After gathering his composure and never giving up the rare opportunity, Cai Hangshun, a rookie reporter from "Tiandou Weekly" spoke to Guyou for the first time in his life as a reporter: "Hello, I am Cai Hangshun from "Tiandou Weekly" . I would like to ask Team Leader Qin Ming, why did you choose to bring Mr. Horrible Evil Beast to this press conference instead of Mr. Meng Yiran, the team leader?”
Let me repeat, Cai Hangshun is an avid fighting spirit enthusiast.
He didn't know Gu You's name, he only knew the nickname "Terrible Evil Beast" which was only used in the spirit fighting arena.
Gu Yu never really appeared as a member of the Imperial Fighting Team, and the "Kong Ya Tuan", the fighting spirit team he established, was only a candidate for the Imperial Fighting Team.
Therefore, to others here, the captain of the Imperial Fighting Team is still Meng Yiran from the Dragon Snake Family.
"That's a good question."
The person who answered the question was not Qin Ming. Gu You beside him took the initiative to take over the conversation: "First of all, thank you for your attention to me. It seems that the name Horrible Evil Beast has not been heard in the spirit fighting arena for a long time."
"No, no, no, how could it be?"
With a hint of sincerity and fear in his excitement, Cai Hangshun waved his hands quickly: "Your Majesty the Terrifying Evil Beast, you are the legend of the Heaven Dou Spirit Arena."
"Yeah."
He took out a square piece of cardboard from the soul guide, and Gu You wrote his name on it: "Do you want to autograph it?"
Cai Hang's eyes suddenly lit up and he nodded vigorously: "Of course."
".?" x3
Qin Ming, Hu Yanli, and the leader of the Xiangjia Academy looked puzzled as they watched Gu You chatting with reporters about the topic of the Soul Fighting Arena.
There is nothing wrong with the topic itself, it’s just that Guyou’s approach is strange.
Does an autograph mean anything?
After handing over the cardboard with his name and fighting spirit nickname to the host, Gu You smiled and replied: "My name is Gu You, I am the current captain of the Imperial Fighting Team, and I stepped on Meng Yiran's position."
He has a great attitude and a bright smile. But such an explosive answer caused the place to explode in an instant.
Regardless of the excitement of getting the "signature" for no reason, Cai Hangshun quickly asked: "Your Excellency Gu You, do you mean that you are stronger than Your Excellency Meng Yiran?"
Gu You confidently replied: "Of course, better than everyone else."
"absurd."
The leader of the Elephant Armor Academy snorted coldly: "Qin Ming, take care of your disciples and don't talk nonsense."
"Oh?" Gu You rolled his eyes slightly: "May I ask, sir, what is your nickname?"
Bang!
The table was broken into two pieces with one punch. The leader of the Elephant Academy's lips trembled slightly and he couldn't say a word.
Obviously, Gu You's understatement directly broke the leader of the Elephant Academy.
In the spirit master's concept, having a bad reputation is better than having no reputation.
Zhao Wuji, who has been wanted by Wuhun Palace for many years, can still use the nickname "Fudo Mingwang" to scare people. On the other hand, Ye Zhiqiu, who was the first to appear in Canghui Academy, the dignified soul king is still called "bastard" by his juniors.
Another reporter also raised his hand and asked: "Excuse me, Mr. Hu Yanli, what do you think of Mr. Gu You's words?"
Hu Yanli shook his head and replied without hesitation: "I don't have any opinion. What he said must be the truth."
Ignoring everyone's surprise, he continued: "The mouth can lie, and the soul power can also lie. But the muscles cannot. Strong muscles that can be cultivated through perseverance will never go wrong."
"He is very strong, stronger than Yu Tianheng, and is the strongest man in Tiandou Royal Academy. In this case, he is the strongest person in Tiandou Royal Academy."
"Ancient Travel,"
Hu Yanli tilted his head slightly and stared at the next enemy with his small eyes: "What's your rank?"
Gu You smiled slightly: "Of course it's number one."
"That's good."
After tearing apart the short-lived and false peace, Hu Yanli's eyes flashed fiercely: "You are very strong, but I am the strongest soul master here."
"Really?" Gu You raised his chin slightly, and faced him with an arrogant aura: "I'm looking forward to your performance."
"Ahem, test, test."
The voice of the host of the Heaven Dou Spirit Arena, who had hosted the gambling battle between Ning Rongrong and Tai Long, echoed throughout the venue. He said in a relaxed tone: "Now, the first place in the lower half of the "Tian Dou Star Competition" preliminary round The match between the Tiandou Royal Academy’s first team and the Elephant Academy is about to begin.”
"I am your host Liu Tianruo."
"As we all know, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has invited outstanding soul masters to participate in the commentary as special guests of the game. I believe everyone must be curious about who the mysterious guest is in this game."
After saying this, the host Liu Tianruo paused deliberately. After completely attracting everyone's attention, he introduced in an excited tone: "He looks fierce on the outside, but soft on the inside. A pair of iron palms can break mountains and rocks, but he uses his majestic body to protect his companions."
"He was once the demon king in the world of soul masters, and he even gained the resounding title of "Fudo Ming King"."
"Having said this, I believe everyone should have guessed it. That's right, let us welcome - Prince Fudo, His Excellency Zhao Wuji!"
boom!
The applause in the venue roared like a strong wind, sweeping across the entire venue in the blink of an eye.
On the top floor where no one noticed, in the room deliberately used for explanations because of the best view, Zao Wou-ki blushed and said in an embarrassed voice: "Ahem, hello everyone, I am Zao Wou-ki."
If he had known earlier, he should not have agreed to His Highness's commentatorship on the game. The continuous applause and cheers below sounded so awkward.
Fortunately, Liu Tianruo did not continue. After briefly introducing the guest as Zhao Wuji, he brought the topic back to the game itself.
First, he briefly introduced the list of personnel obtained from the special committee. After a peaceful transition, Sun Tianruo took the lead in throwing out a hot topic: "Mr. Zhao Wuji, what do you think about what happened at the press conference just now?"
The pre-match press conference did not block information. Under the instruction of some people, only five minutes had passed, and everything that happened in the press conference had been known to all the audience present.
Zhao Wuji was no exception.
"I haven't walked on the mainland for a while, so I don't know much about the new generation of soul masters."
After laying the groundwork in advance, Zhao Wuji said, "But as far as I know, the captain of the Royal Fighting Team is right."
Unable to hide his shock, Sun Tianruo asked, "Do you really think Gu You is the strongest among the thirty people below?"
".No."
Recalling what Ma Hongjun and Oscar said, watching Gu You step onto the fighting stage step by step, Zhao Wuji denied it categorically, "He is not the strongest among the thirty people."
"He is the strongest among the 120 people."
On the fighting stage, Gu You and Hu Yanli, each serving as the vanguard of the team, stood facing each other.
Gu You spoke first: "Captain of Tiandou Royal Academy, Gu You. A 42nd level standing and strong attacking soul master."
As always, Hu Yanli looked down at his opponent with a fierce light in his eyes: "Captain of Xiangjia Academy, Hu Yanli. A 43rd level standing and strong attacking soul master."
He himself had no opinion on Gu You's words. On the contrary, he admired Gu You's well-trained burly body.
Unfortunately, there can only be one winner on the fighting arena. And the only winner can only be him, Hu Yanli.
The referee from the Spirit Hall shouted loudly: "Both sides, salute."
Without saying anything harsh, the two men bowed to each other at the same time. In an instant, the atmosphere of the entire fighting arena became hot.
Everyone was looking forward to how Gu You would show his strength.
The referee gave an order: "The first round of the first group in the lower half of the preliminary round, Gu You vs. Hu Yanli, now officially begins."
Almost at the same time, Hu Yanli shouted: "Diamond Mammoth, possess!"
The two-meter-five majestic body swelled again at the moment of the spirit possession. The originally somewhat loose muscles condensed rapidly and became as exaggerated as a bodybuilder.
A layer of dark yellow stratum corneum with a metallic luster appeared on the surface of the skin, the nose extended and lengthened, the upper lip turned up, and two one-foot-long thick fangs stretched out of the mouth, with the sharp front end pointing to Gu You in front of him.
Seeing that Gu You did not release his martial spirit, Hu Yanli frowned: "Where is your martial spirit?"
"Not released yet." Gu You spread his hands: "Your Xiangjia Academy is an academy based on Xiangjia Sect, and the most commonly used tactic of the Diamond Mammoth, which was once classified as a defensive martial spirit, is defensive counterattack."
"And I am waiting for you to be fully prepared."
"You are so arrogant."
Without hearing any guilty conscience, a solemn look flashed in Hu Yanli's eyes. Four soul rings flashed in succession, and the condensed dark yellow halo climbed on Hu Yanli's body, and the momentum surrounding him became heavier.
Even the audience in the distance had an illusion of facing the mountain.
"Are you ready?"
Gu You leaned down, supporting the ground with only five fingers, with his feet one in front and one behind, and his toes digging into the ground, posing a squatting start posture.
"Don't blink, this is the last scene you will see."
A ferocious smile came into his eyes, and a voice came to his ears: "Demon beast, attack!"
A thrilling darkness rushed into his mind, and as his feet left the ground, a sharp pain came from his chest that could make people faint.
The whistling wind was in his ears, and before he lost consciousness, he vaguely heard a surprised cry.
"Ten thousand, ten thousand year soul ring?!"
