The spirit hall tournament field really was packed with crowds, but then all of them dispersed according to their academies position, which ranked from the most famous to the least known one.
Bibi Dong flicked her finger casually, making an enormous stage raise from the ground abruptly.
BOOM!
The white-paved stage quickly was settled, and some of the audience literally had surprised expressions plastered on their faces. They have never seen anything like this before.
"The current continental tournament will be different compared to the last tournament." Bibi Dong naturally stated while looking over the contestant.
"In the previous tournament, the seeded teams will fight each other until the final match," She continued calmly.
"However, the Spirit Hall must change the rules because there are so many teams representing their hometown and academies today."
Bibi Dong suddenly glanced at the stage, where Liu Erlong casually jumped onto with a calm expression on her face.
"That's why..." She said naturally.
"We will sort this tournament out at a fast pace." Liu Erlong confidently stated.
"All of you'll fight in this arena simultaneously, and only 16 teams that survive could proceed to the next round." She added with a grin, which left the contestant speechless.
Flander was shaken in the audience seat because his old friend suddenly appeared in this place.
"Xiaogang, that was..." He looked at Liu Erlong on the stage with a startled expression because he didn't expect her to be here.
"Liu Erlong." Yu Xiaogang solemnly whispered.
Meanwhile, the contestant has complicated expressions on their faces because of Liu Erlong's absurd statements.
There are 100 teams or even more in this tournament, and each of them has seven members, which means at least seven hundred people will fight in this arena.
Even though they are the best out of the best, fighting more than 100 people who probably have the same strength and talent is clearly not easy.
Liu Erlong walked toward the stage's tip and casually commented, "This stage's span is over 1200 meters square, but once you step out of the bound, I'll instantly disqualify your team."
"An injury obviously will occur, so fatal injury inside the arena was permitted, but no death was not allowed here."
"If you ever dare to kill someone in my watch..." Liu Erlong abruptly released a heavy aura, which swept over the entire arena.
BOOM!
Liu Erlong's spirit rings appeared one by one gradually, and a red glow quickly pressured everyone, causing them to look at her in awe.
Yu Xiaogang hurriedly lifted his body off the seat and looked at Liu Erlong with completely dismayed looks on his face.
"100k years old, H-How...?!" He immediately formulated how Liu Erlong absorbed a red spirit ring, yet not a single solid answer appeared in his head.
Yu Xiaogang's head was spinning in wonder because even with the spirit hall's help, it would still be hard to fight a 100k years old spirit beast and absorb a red spirit ring.
However, that's where Yu Xiaogang was wrong because he carelessly undervalued the Spirit Hall's resources and mobility, which have grown and undergone so many changes over the years.
Even though not many elders supported her, Bibi Dong heavily recommended Liu Erlong because of her raw potential.
Bibi Dong didn't do anything besides giving Liu Erlong a chance to grow stronger, which was a profitable gamble since her strength reached titled douluo when she was still at the spirit douluo realm.
Not to mention Liu Erlong's eagerness for Yunlong, which is why she wouldn't betray the spirit hall because she doesn't have someone especially attached to her.
Bibi Dong exploited Liu Erlong's enthusiasm and firmly made a contract with her. She wouldn't defy any of her orders if she somehow got accepted by Yunlong personally into his harem.
"Well, it's all according to the plan." Bibi Dong glanced at Yunlong, who observed the arena with a relaxed expression.
Liu Erlong casually clapped her hands, and a translucent cylinder barrier quickly was created around the arena, protecting the audience from any attack within the stage.
"What are you guys waiting for?" Liu Erlong casually drew her heavy pressure back. "Jump onto the stage."
The spirit hall's team immediately landed on the stage and formed a circle formation. They warily looked at the other contestant, and Su Yanyu briefly noticed a grin on Liu Erlong's face.
"Teacher..." Su Yanyu slowly called her bamboo flute. "What's she planning?"
Shrek Seven Devils maintained their position near the border because they only had to survive until ten teams remained. Attraction too much attention will exhaust them in the long run.
"We only have to survive, that's it." Tang San firmly commanded, to which his teammate responded with a nod.
"First Round, elimination." Liu Erlong's voice calmly echoed, and white mist appeared on the stage. "Starting from now!"
"Be aware of the surroundings, kids."
"You have one hour to survive, but if more than 16 teams left. I will prolong this round for another hour until the right quantity fulfilled."
Tang San frowned slightly because these mists actually were formed by spiritual energy, which means it was an illusion.
He hurriedly activated purple demon eyes and saw so many people who didn't move a bit from their positions.
"They are afraid to move." He commented with a smile on his face.
Tang San hurriedly shared this information with his teammate, and they swiftly formulated a plan.
Ma Xiaotao glanced at Ning Rongrong and stated, "Hongjun and I will attack them with our soaring phoenix strikes, so I want you to buff us."
"Since we'll attack the most faraway team, the other side of the stage will fall into chaos," She calmly added. "We must take advantage of the situation."
"Mhm." Ning Rongrong was about to buff her and Ma Honjun, but an explosion occurred abruptly.
BOOM!
"Brother." Ma Xiaotao ascended, which quickly was followed by her brother.
They activated their martial soul, and the twin phoenix released a piercing cry, sending two pillars of flame blasted on the other side of the stage.
BOOM!
"Haaa...." Yunlong yawned because the result of this round was easy to predict.
Even though some of the contestants were unfamiliar, they surprisingly were competent teams. An example of that was a spirit master team filled with people who possessed a spirit tool.
They coordinated very well, considering how many teams surrounded them.
There is also a team with a beast-type martial soul, but without any sustain and support, it would fall in a matter of minutes.
"Well, this is going to take a while," Yunlong commented while waving his hand at Bibi Dong.
Bibi Dong smiled and waved her hand back to him, which quickly caught the audience's attention because the supreme pontiff seemed close with this mysterious young man.
'Since the original watched over our maids, I'll try to develop the soul spirit here.' He thought while closing his eyes.
Unaware of how much attention Yunlong brought because of his new appearance, so many ladies literally looked at him with thirsty looks on their faces.
Bibi Dong shook her head at this scenery, but a particular person's gaze from the audience seats intently stabbed at her.
"Hmph, if only he knew," She indifferently sneered because Yu Xiaogang is obviously curious about Yunlong's identity.
"It's not the time yet, unfortunately." Bibi Dong commented with a smirk on her face.
