In the current Realm of the Gods, the number of people who could control Soul Force could be counted on one's fingers. However, it was mostly due to the ability brought about by their Martial Soul. Someone like "Jiang Yun", who had innate Soul Force, was extremely rare. It could be said that "Jiang Yun" was the only one.
Xiahou Yang's reaction was within Lin Yun's expectations.
Although his current soul strength had not recovered to the level it was in his previous life.
After devouring the Primordial Soul Elder's soul this time, his soul had become slightly stronger.
However, with his current Divine Sense realm and soul strength, he could only use two sets of soul techniques. He had already used both of them and was very familiar with them.
As for the "Soul-Assimilating Black Hole" and "Spiritualization", he could only use them when he collected more soul fragments in the future.
The entire schedule of the promotion competition came to an end as night fell.
The next morning, the semi-finals were about to begin.
Currently, the number of participating disciples on the Lord Peak had been reduced by half. There were only 50 people left.
On the high platform, the 12 Sect Masters, three Sacred Lords, and the Chief Alliance Master of the Sacred Alliance had all arrived.
When Lin Yun saw these higher-ups, he knew that he was fine. At least, his current identity should not arouse too much suspicion from the Space Lord.
After all, if the final result of the investigation showed that Lin Yun was not Jiang Yun, then Lin Yun would not be standing here today.
This time, the person who announced the schedule of the semi-finals was still Sacred Lord Lieyan.
Sacred Lord Lieyan opened the scroll and went straight to the point. "Today will be the semi-finals of the General Alliance Conference. Next, I will introduce the schedule of the semi-finals to everyone."
"In this semi-final, 20 winners will be decided from the 50 participating disciples."
"The semi-finals will also be split into five groups, and each group will have 10 participating disciples."
"The 10 participating disciples in each group will go through six matches."
"Finally, based on the accumulated points of the six matches, the top four in each group with the highest points will advance to the finals of the General Assembly. There will be a total of twenty people."
"And within each large group, the bottom six with accumulated points will be the fiftieth to thirtieth place in this General Alliance Meeting. They will need to participate in the ranking competition to determine the final ranking."
This round's matches were still not decided by drawing lots. All the matches were decided by the upper echelons of the Sacred Alliance.
Xiahou Yang also looked around, "According to the previous rules, in this semi-finals, the disciples who have already competed before, as well as the disciples from the same sect or martial house of the same alliance, will be separated as much as possible."
Finally, Xiahou Yang bitterly smiled and said, "However, it seems that there are only a few disciples in our 84 Alliance Martial House."
Of the 50 participating disciples, most of them were the strongest core disciples of their respective sects. There weren't many disciples from the Alliance Martial House.
However, Lin Yun still saw Yong Hua, who he had defeated before.
After Yong Hua had been defeated by Lin Yun, she had defeated other opponents and successfully squeezed into the semi-finals.
"Next, I will announce the groups of the participating disciples. The first group, Jiang Yun …"
After Sacred Flame Lord announced the distribution of the participants, Lin Yun and Xiahou Yang also came to the first group's arena.
There were still five arenas, and the arenas were exactly the same as the ones in the ranking competition. There were no changes.
"Jiang Yun, it seems that your group isn't as simple as it seems." Xiahou Yang looked at the other nine participating disciples and couldn't help but frown.
Qingyi and Xiahou Xuan also came to Lin Yun's side with serious expressions. This was because the first group that Lin Yun was in, besides Lin Yun, the others were all disciples of the General Alliance, and none of them were weak.
"The Undying Sect's direct disciple, Ouyang Haochen!"
"The Zither Sect's direct disciple, Yeqin!"
Xiahou Yang also introduced the two direct disciples in his group to Lin Yun. Apart from them, Xiahou Yang wasn't worried about encountering any other core disciples.
However, Lin Yun hadn't fought with a direct disciple yet. Even if Xiahou Yang thought that Lin Yun was very strong, he didn't think that Lin Yun could defeat a direct disciple.
Lin Yun nodded. Lin Yun had heard Xiahou Yang talk about the twelve sects of the Sacred Alliance quite a bit.
The twelve sects of the Sacred Alliance actually corresponded to twelve different domains. The disciples of each sect would specialize in the domain that the sect was most proficient in.
Excalibur specialized in swordsmanship, the Ghost King Sect specialized in the soul, the Spirit Beast Sect specialized in the power of beasts, and the Body Sect specialized in physical skills.
The Hell Sect specialized in torture, the Zither Sect specialized in sound waves, the Weapon Refining Sect specialized in metal elements, and the Body Sect specialized in body techniques.
The Mirage Sect specialized in illusion techniques, the Array Sect specialized in talismans, the Undying Sect specialized in defense, and the Puppet Sect specialized in puppet techniques.
The domains of the twelve sects were all different. The sect masters of the sects were also top-notch experts who had reached the peak of their respective domains.
"Constantly improving …" Lin Yun couldn't help but mutter to himself.
He understood very well that the reason the Sacred Alliance hadn't merged the twelve sects was to allow the disciples of each sect to specialize in one domain and reach the peak of perfection.
It was also because of this that the Sacred Alliance had produced many experts who had reached the peak of their respective domains.
When Xiahou Yang saw Lin Yun's gaze land on the two direct disciples, he also began to introduce them.
"Jiang Yun, you mustn't underestimate the Undying Sect. Among the twelve sects, the strongest are the Excalibur Sect and the Ghost King Sect.
"Next up are the Undying Sect, the Hell Sect, and the Puppet Sect. Their disciples are also very strong, second only to the Excalibur Sect and the Ghost King Sect.
"As for the Array Sect and the Mirage Sect, they are a little weak because of their special domains."
"In particular, the Array Sect can be said to be the weakest of the twelve sects in terms of overall strength."
While Xiahou Yang was speaking, the match in the arena had already ended.
"The second match of the semifinals, Little Hammer Zhao wins!"
Then, the examiner in the arena glanced at the scroll and announced, "The third match of the semifinals, Jiang Yun versus Ye Zhihuan!"
When Lin Yun heard his name, he was about to step into the arena when Xiahou Yang suddenly pulled him back.
Lin Yun turned his head and calmly looked at Xiahou Yang, not saying anything.
Xiahou Yang said in a deep voice, "Jiang Yun, you must be careful. This Ye Zhihuan is a core disciple of the Mirage Sect."
Lin Yun nodded expressionlessly. Just as he was about to leave, Xiahou Yang pulled his hand back.
