"Brother, when will the opening ceremony begin?" Wang Qiu 'er was lying on Lu Yuan's back in the resting area. She hugged Lu Yuan's neck tightly and looked around with her pinkish-blue eyes. Her red lips parted slightly, and her crisp voice entered Lu Yuan's ears.
"What's wrong, Little Qiu 'er? Are you impatient?" Lu Yuan smiled and said softly when he heard Wang Qiu' er's words.
"Yes, it's so boring waiting here. We've waited for more than half an hour, and the opening ceremony hasn't started yet. This competition is progressing so slowly." Wang Qiu 'er pouted and said softly.
"It can't be helped. There are too many people. We have to wait until all the academies have arrived and everything has been arranged properly. That old man Snowy Night Emperor and the leaders of some forces have also arrived before the opening ceremony can begin."
"However, it's about time. It's already past eight. The opening ceremony should be starting soon."
Lu Yuan smiled and said.
"Is that so? Brother, you said the same thing half an hour ago. You said that the opening ceremony would begin soon, but we're still waiting here. "Lu Yuan had just finished speaking when Wang Qiu 'er's voice sounded.
"Cough!" Lu Yuan coughed when he heard Wang Qiu 'er's words. He rubbed his nose and felt a little awkward.
He had originally thought that the opening ceremony would begin at eight. However, he didn't expect them to be so slow. It was almost half past eight, and they still hadn't started.
Sigh, I overestimated their efficiency. In the end, I was a little embarrassed by my dear sister's words.
Lu Yuan sighed in his heart.
However, the resting area was almost full. Lu Yuan was sure that the opening ceremony was about to begin.
Lu Yuan glanced around. At the entrance to the resting area, staff members came in to arrange for the teams to enter.
"Alright, Qiu 'er. Look, we're about to enter." Lu Yuan smiled as he pointed at the staff members.
"It's true. It's finally about to begin." Wang Qiu 'er's smile blossomed when she saw this scene. She was elated.
"This girl." Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh as he shook his head when he sensed Wang Qiu 'er's excitement. She was still like a kid. Even though she had lived for thousands of years, she was still very innocent.
When Zhu Zhuqing, Hu Lena, and the others were twelve or thirteen years old, they were already quite sensible.
But then again, being sensible was good, but being pure was also commendable.
Lu Yuan was very fond of Wang Qiu 'er's purity and innocence. He loved this cute little sister of his very much.
Lu Yuan patted Wang Qiu 'er's hand and raised his voice as he said to everyone around him, "Alright, everyone, get ready. We'll be entering the arena soon."
"Yes, Captain!" As soon as Lu Yuan's voice fell, a uniform voice sounded out of nowhere.
"Little Qiu 'er, come down. It's time to enter the arena." Lu Yuan smiled and whispered to Wang Qiu' er, who was lying on top of him.
"Oh, alright then!" Wang Qiu 'er replied. She reluctantly climbed up from Lu Yuan's back and took two steps forward to stand beside Lu Yuan.
Even though this little golden centipede had transformed into a human, it still liked to stick to Lu Yuan.
Lu Yuan rubbed Wang Qiu 'er's head. His eyes flashed as he looked at the staff members who were walking towards them.
"Hello, is this the Heavenly Star Academy's team?" A staff member came in front of everyone and asked softly.
"Yes." Lu Yuan said.
"It's time for your academy to enter the arena. Please follow me." The staff member said.
"Thank you!" Lu Yuan nodded at the staff member and turned around slightly. "Everyone, follow me."
"Yes, Captain!" Everyone replied in unison.
The group of people followed the staff member's lead and stepped into the entrance tunnel.
"Wow, there are so many spectators!" Ning Rongrong exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the countless cheering spectators in the spacious arena.
"There should be tens of thousands of people here. This Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament is indeed popular." Lu Yuan said as he casually glanced at the crowd.
"Yes!" Ning Rongrong nodded gently. Her beautiful eyes scanned the area. Suddenly, her gaze froze. "Lu Yuan, look, my father is here too. He's in the VIP area."
Holding Lu Yuan's hand, Ning Rongrong pointed to a remodeled VIP area at the back of the central arena. She exclaimed in surprise.
Lu Yuan glanced at the people in the VIP area and took in all the people in the VIP area.
He was familiar with Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, the platinum bishop of the Martial Soul Temple, Sacas, the fat pig-like Prince Xue Ye, the white-haired old man with a crown on his head, Emperor Xue Ye, and his Cher, who was disguised as the empire's crown prince, Xue Qinghe.
Even Dugu Bo, who had been following him all this while, had snuck into the VIP area.
"Lu Yuan, do you see him?" Ning Rongrong asked as she patted Lu Yuan's arm.
"Yes, I see him. Not only do I see your father, but I also see Elder Dugu. This fellow runs pretty fast. He slipped into the VIP area when I wasn't paying attention." Lu Yuan glanced at Dugu Yan behind him and laughed softly.
Dugu Yan smiled when she saw Lu Yuan's gaze. Her lips parted slightly as she said, "Grandfather said that the various powers have representatives in the VIP area. The Dragon King Hall should have one too. The Dragon Emperor doesn't like to show his face, so grandfather can only go up himself."
"Yes, Elder Dugu is very thoughtful." Lu Yuan nodded his head when he heard Dugu Yan's explanation. Indeed, Yan Shaozhe and Dugu Bo were the only ones in charge of the Dragon King Hall.
Long Xiaoyao and Ma Xiaotao basically didn't care about anything. They were more like bodyguards. While Long Xiaoyao was in charge of the Law Enforcement Hall, he didn't interfere much in the matters of the Law Enforcement Hall. The Feng, Huo, Lei, and Dian captains were the ones who discussed and acted.
Only very important matters would be handled by Long Xiaoyao.
Therefore, Dugu Bo was the only one who could send a representative to the VIP area, given that Yan Shaozhe was staying in the Dragon King Palace to guard the residence.
It had to be said that Dugu Bo was quite clear about his position.
Lu Yuan was very proud of his decision to recruit Dugu Bo back then. He didn't make a wrong decision. Dugu Bo was very good at doing things.
Dugu Yan couldn't help but smile when she heard Lu Yuan praise Dugu Bo for his thoughtfulness. It wasn't easy to be praised by the Hall Master. Over the past three months, they had been scolded badly.
After all, their cooperation at the start of their training was terrible. They had been scolded a lot because of that.
Even she had been scolded more than once. She was used to it.
Today, she was a little surprised to hear Lu Yuan praise them.
