Hence, compared to the younger group, the God-class and Overlord-class humans seemed to be stronger!
But people still paid more attention to the younger group.
Everyone knew that the younger generation was the future of this country.
In the following days, everyone went into seclusion to recuperate.
Yingwu first year, 1st of September.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Bai and the rest would already be in their second year.
But in reality, they didn't even attend many first-year classes.
Because of the sudden arrival of the Protoss, because of this competition, everyone had no choice but to stay in Ziyun for a long time.
Now, everyone was even more familiar with Ziyun than with the zither.
The quarterfinals officially began today.
Due to the royal family team's forfeiture, one of the four matches would be without a bye.
But before the competition began, no one knew who would be the one without a bye.
As the only remaining seedling in the human camp, before the competition began, many of the top experts of the Zulong Empire showed up to cheer for them.
But there were still many who earnestly advised — if you can't win, just admit defeat!
Although the Rune Dragon team's performance could be described as stunning, the higher the level of the experts, the clearer it was that the Protoss team still had terrifying young experts.
Including the various high-level artifacts of the Protoss team, they far surpassed the humans.
Li Ying wore an emperor's uniform and looked at Shirō Makino with a serious expression. "Don't be rash, alright?"
Shirō Makino smiled gently. "Don't worry."
"I'm worried!" Li Ying was speechless.
In front of Shirō Makino, he was always Xiao Gu and never called himself emperor.
"Alright, alright, you're the emperor of a country, mind your image." Seeing Li Ying's slightly red eyes, Shirō Makino prepared to quickly send him away.
If he said "Boss, I beg you" in front of everyone, that would be earth-shattering.
Especially to the Li royal family, they couldn't tolerate this at all!
"My third brother is still recuperating, I plan to make him a prince!" Li Ying said with a serious expression.
"That's right." Shirō Makino nodded.
The younger brother of the emperor should have been conferred the title of king long ago.
Moreover, Li Xiong, the former coward, also won everyone's respect with his performance in this war.
Conferring him the title of King was definitely something that everyone expected.
At this time, Prince Regent Li Yu suddenly walked over and looked at Shirō Makino. "Live on. In the future, His Majesty will bestow you the title of King. I will not stop you."
The moment he said that, the group of the empire's top bigwigs were shocked!
They even suspected that they had heard wrong!
What the hell was he talking about?
Make Shirō Makino … king?
King with a different surname?
Even if it was a Regional Prince … This was something that had never happened since the founding of the Empire!
Back when the Ancestral Dragon Kingdom was founded, those founding fathers were merely a group of dukes!
Eight thousand years ago, none of the heroes who turned the tide were conferred the title of King!
Although the contributions that Shirō Makino had accumulated so far were enough to be conferred the title of Duke, but to be conferred the title of King … This was really too shocking.
But looking at the calm faces of the emperor and Prince Regent, and thinking about the real identity and background of this handsome young man, it seemed that … this matter was not surprising at all.
Shirō Makino shook his head and smiled. "A Marquis is enough. The Bai family does not participate in the secular world. This is the rule set by the ancestors. Now that I have decided to return to the family, I will follow the rules set by the ancestors."
Li Ying looked at Shirō Makino with a serious face. "You have sacrificed so much, I will not let you down!"
Shirō Makino waved his hand and did not continue the topic.
It was really too early to talk about this.
Whether it was conferred the title of King or Duke, for ordinary people, it was already a supreme glory that could bring honor to their ancestors. But for him, he was really not interested.
When he was short of money, he was very interested in money.
But after he was not short of money, in the blink of an eye, he almost forgot how many properties he had.
Many people would not believe it, but he loved to draw talismans!
And Lin Zijin.
And his future goal was not in this empire at all.
He wanted to go to the Milky Way!
He wanted to find him and Zijin's parents, to find the old man and Lin Caiwei!
He wanted to find Big Beauty!
He had too many things to do.
How could he be trapped in this empire and be shackled?
"Alright, alright, it's time to go on stage!" Shirō Makino mercilessly chased the group of big shots away.
Bai Muxun looked on enviously from the corner. He was also here to cheer and remind Shirō Makino to be careful, but unfortunately, he did not even manage to squeeze into the inner circle.
The future heir of the Bai family?
No, he was not qualified.
Didn't he see some of the big shots of the Lin family standing awkwardly in the outer circle?
Lin Caixia held Lin Zijin's hand, and the two of them whispered to each other using their spiritual power.
"Miss Wenjun, have you seen her face?"
"I have."
"Is she beautiful?"
"Very beautiful!"
"How is she compared to you?"
"Not worse than me!"
"Then, she and Xiao Bai …"
"They are friends."
"Just friends?"
"If not?"
Lin Caixia was speechless. She thought to herself that this silly lass of hers was really naive. Just because she had been through life and death with Xiao Bai since childhood, she actually didn't have her guard up at all!
No, she had to educate her!
"What do you mean if not? Aren't you afraid that Xiao Bai will run away with someone else?"
"Brother will not do that!"
"Let me tell you, I have been through it!"
"Have you been in a relationship before?"
Lin Caixia closed herself off and left.
She finally realized that she could not persuade this silly girl at all.
However, according to her secret observation, she found that at least until now, Xiao Bai did not have any scandals with other girls.
But people said that there was no cat that did not steal fish, and there was no man that was not lustful!
To determine whether a man was lustful or not, if you put your hand under his nose and found that he was still panting, then he must be lustful!
Therefore, she decided to remind her silly girl later, so that one day, her position would not be taken away by someone else!
"Aiya, don't worry, if brother really has that kind of heart, I can't stop him, and I don't want to stop him, as long as he is happy!"
"You are too unprincipled!"
"What are principles? Can they be eaten? Can they make me happy? "
"Can a group of women around him make you happy?"
"First of all, no. Secondly … If brother is happy, I am happy."
"You are hopeless."
Lin Caixia felt that she had nothing better to do. If she had the time, she might as well go to the Bai Family's Empress and ask some questions.
This kind of opportunity to see the Empress at any time was too rare!
So she left.
Shan Gu strongly requested, "I want to go this time!"
Everyone looked at him.
Shan Gu said, "My bow … and I are already thirsty!"
Ouyang Xingqi looked at him speechlessly.
After such a long time, the two of them had almost done everything that should happen. Although there was only one last step left, Ouyang Xingqi had long regarded herself as the future Madam Shan.
Therefore, she looked at Shan Gu gently.
Shan Gu turned his face away and did not look at her.
He thought, It's useless for you to look at me!
I want to go on stage!
I want to fight with them!
"Shan Gu?" Ouyang Xingqi's voice became especially gentle. Her ponytail also became shoulder-length hair, and she looked even more beautiful.
Shan Gu looked at her expressionlessly, his eyes full of — this is a "threatening" look to save me some face outside.
"If you go on stage, be careful," Ouyang Xingqi said.
Shan Gu was stunned for a moment, and a trace of gentleness appeared in his eyes. "Don't worry, nothing will happen to me."
Guarding a Talisman Artist who was about to become a God, a Great Warrior who had already become a God, and a super-violent woman who was about to become a God … the ones who should be afraid were the opponents!
Ji Chae Yi stood next to Liu and frowned. "Who said you can go on stage?"
Shan Gu: "…"
Si Yin said weakly, "I want to go too."
Then, everyone looked at Shirō Makino.
The group of big shots of the empire was also speechless.
With this kind of atmosphere and this kind of conversation, who could tell that they might be facing a terrifying battle of life and death?
Those who didn't know would think that there was money on the battlefield and that they could pick it up by going there!
Shirō Makino glanced at Shan Gu. "If you go on stage this time, you can't go on stage next."
Shan Gu patted his chest and said, "Okay, no problem!"
Since the captain had already spoken, although Chae Yi was unwilling, she still gave up the only remaining position.
Si Yin muttered softly, "Why can only four people go?"
The little girl who was so timid that she was afraid of seeing blood had finally grown up.
Shan Gu followed Shirō Makino, Lin Zijin, and Wen Jun. They charged into the battlefield valiantly with their heads held high.
A minute later, they came back dejectedly.
The group of big shots of the empire didn't even have time to return to their seats to watch the competition.
They were dumbfounded as they watched the group of young people come back. All of them were so shocked that they couldn't close their mouths.
They thought to themselves that it was impossible!
Although they had to protect themselves, would Fu Long and the other young people admit defeat so quickly?
Wasn't this a joke?
At this time, Brother Niao's excited voice came from the holographic screen. "Haha, we got a bye! Fu Long Battle Team's luck is off the charts. In the battle of the top eight, because of Royal Battle Team's forfeiture, one of the teams has a bye. But the problem is, there are a total of seven teams, and the one in seven chance. No one thought that it would be our turn! "
Dong Li pushed his spectacles. "So, this is what they say, good will be rewarded!"
Brother Niao laughed wildly. "The Protoss side, evil will be repaid with evil!"
Everyone: "…"
Got a bye?
They entered the semifinals just like that?
Looking at Shan Gu's disappointed expression, those who didn't know would think that he had lost the competition!
Almost everyone who cared about Fu Long Battle Team heaved a sigh of relief.
No matter how strong a warrior was, there would always be a "what if".
From the start of the competition until now, unexpected scenes could appear at any time.
Hence, other than a certain chatterbox, everyone was very happy to get a bye in the quarterfinals.
The only remaining Human Battle Team got a bye. The remaining six Protoss teams only used less than half an hour to finish the battle.
Then, the Protoss side discussed whether the semifinals … could they start tomorrow!
Was it that urgent?
Under normal circumstances, there would be about a month's time between the two matches to rest and reorganize.
But the Protoss side was a little afraid of the Human Battle Team.
With each passing month, the Human Clan's battle team would make incredible progress.
Although they knew that many people sacrificed their future cultivation path to forcefully increase their potential to improve, the increase in combat strength still gave countless Protoss headaches.
Fu Long Battle Team didn't lose anything this time. If they were given another month, who knew what would happen?
Hence, if they could fight tomorrow, it would be best to start tomorrow!
When this suggestion was passed to Shirō Makino and the others, Shirō Makino agreed without hesitation.
Tomorrow was the semifinals, and the day after tomorrow was the finals!
He wanted to snatch the first championship before the Divine and Blue Sea Empires!
He wanted to let everyone know that the Ancestral Dragon … was the strongest!
Heroic Martial Year, 2nd of September.
The semifinals of the Young Division officially started!
This time, there definitely wouldn't be a bye.
An hour before the start of the competition, the 18-star Zulong Empire was unprecedentedly quiet.
On any planet, in any city, there were barely any figures on the streets. Except for some especially important positions that required people, almost everyone was waiting in front of all kinds of screens.
Waiting for the start of the semifinals!
Before the competition, countless people came over to cheer and give all kinds of reminders.
This time, it was Shirō Makino, Lin Zijin, Wen Jun, and Si Yin!
Chae Yi originally wanted to fight, but Si Yin's one sentence made her sit back down — I'll let you have the next finals!
Shan Gu blinked his eyes pitifully, unable to say a word.
Ouyang Xingqi leaned on his shoulder happily, her face full of happiness.
Because at least before the big battle, her man … would not be in any danger!
Although she felt that it was selfish of her to think this way, it was also a human instinct.
As soon as the four entered, Wen Jun's bright eyes behind the mask flashed. He glanced at Shirō Makino and asked, "Did you feel it?"
Shirō Makino nodded.
Li Ying glanced at the Prince Regent beside him and asked, "Uncle Wang, what are they talking about?"
Li Yu stared at the holographic battlefield and said in a deep voice, "Array."
Li Ying was stunned.
Li Yu continued, "As soon as the four Protoss entered the battlefield, they used their artifacts to set up a terrifying array. Then, they guarded there, waiting for Xiao Bai and the others to come."
Li Ying was stunned. He was also staring at the holographic battlefield, but his attention was mainly on Xiao Bai and the others.
But if the other side's movements were too big, he would also notice it. After all, his level wasn't that low!
Especially since he was an archer, observation was his basic skill!
But he didn't notice anything.
In the live broadcast room.
Brother Niao looked at Dong Li.
Dong Li shook his head and said, "Don't ask me, ask Xiao Bai and the others. They are too powerful!"
On the Internet, countless people were also asking the same question.
But the audience had a god's perspective, and there were also experts among the people. Some people still noticed the abnormality on the Protoss's side.
Someone quickly explained — —
On the Deity Race's side, they set up a large array and waited for Little White and the others to enter the array.
"So, Xiao Bai and the others saw through it?"
"So, Xiao Bai and the others saw through it?"
"So …"
Countless people repeated this question like a repeating chicken.
It wasn't to be funny, but they all wanted to hear an affirmative answer — — yes, Xiao Bai and the others saw through it!
Otherwise, wouldn't it be dangerous if they plunged into the enemy's array?
That absolutely wouldn't do!
The person who gave the previous explanation gave another affirmative answer — —
Yes, Xiao Bai and the others did see through it!
The entire Internet was instantly filled with jubilation.
On the battlefield, Si Yin was also confused. She glanced at Wen Jun and asked weakly, "Sister, what's wrong?"
Wen Jun quickly reached out and touched Si Yin's head. Then, he narrowed his eyes behind the mask and said, "The enemy has set up a trap and is waiting for us to fall into it."
Si Yin was speechless as she tidied up her messy hair. She pouted and said, "Then let's smash their trap!"
Lin Zijin: "Mm, that's a great suggestion!"
Wen Jun looked at Shirō Makino. "Why don't you do it?"
Bai Muye soared into the sky expressionlessly. In the next moment, he seemed to have thought of something and took out a flight talisman.
Everyone: "…"
So, was he a Grandmaster … or an unprecedented Grandmaster?
The Grandmaster Talisman Artist could use his spiritual power to lift himself into the air … Only when he reached the Grandmaster Realm could he use his spiritual power to fly.
Although Xiao Bai's Flight Talisman shrouded a layer of mystery as to whether he was a Grandmaster or not, it was already confirmed that he was a Grandmaster!
A young Talisman Grandmaster at the age of twenty!
And he was a freaking all-element Talisman Grandmaster!
Was there anyone more abnormal than him in this world?
He could travel the world with just his face, so why did he have to rely on talent? Why did he have to rely on talent? Why did he have to rely on strength?
Was there no future for Xiao Bai's face?
Watching him fly all the way to the array set up by the four Protoss, almost everyone had these thoughts that had nothing to do with this battle.
He was too stable!
So stable that no one would believe that he would fall in such a place!
A Flight Talisman allowed him to cross hundreds of miles and arrive in front of the mountains where the array was set up.
In the next moment, he floated in the air alone. With a whoosh, hundreds of talismans flew out of his body, covering the sky and covering the earth as they flew towards the hiding place of the four Protoss!
The eyes of the four young God-ranked Protoss turned cold!
You're courting death!
We've already set up the array, yet you still think that you can hurt us with just a few talismans?
Less than a second after they had this thought, they heard an earth-shattering roar in the sky above their heads.
Tens of thousands of lightning strikes!
Heaven and earth … were completely illuminated by bright white lightning.
Almost no one could see clearly what was happening.
The terrifying array set up by the four young God-ranked Protoss using their artifacts was instantly activated under the bombardment of tens of thousands of lightning strikes!
In an instant, dense clouds rolled, lightning flashed, and thunder roared. It was as if the mountains were sealed!
The situation inside was like hell on earth!
Shirō Makino stood outside the array, still floating in the air.
He was like a god.
Just as the time limit of the Flight Talisman was about to expire, Shirō Makino calmly added another one for himself.
Wen Jun and Lin Zijin, who were watching from afar, were speechless.
Si Yin mumbled, "So I won't be able to hit the Gophers even if I go on stage?"
Lin Zijin turned around and quickly reached out to rub Si Yin's head. Before Si Yin turned hostile, she said seriously, "Si Yin."
"Hm?"
"You can still be a bystander!"
Siyin: (́ ∀ □ ′) Nhǎo ━
The four Protoss were trapped in the array that they had set up with their own Dharma treasures. The expressions on all of their faces were filled with horror.
Although the Violent Lightning Talismans that Shirō Makino released did not hit them, they unexpectedly hit the key points of the array they had set up!
Hence, the array went completely out of control.
It activated and operated on its own.
Not only did it trap them inside, but there were also countless flying swords in the array, ready to devour them.
This was the most tragic thing in the world.
They had painstakingly dug a trap and waited for their prey, but they were kicked into the trap by their prey.
What the f * ck was this?
If these four God-Rank Protoss had a second chance, they would not have chosen to use their artifacts to set up this array.
If they went out and fought with their swords and spears, even if they could not win, they were confident that they would have the chance to admit defeat!
It was impossible for him to die!
Because any one of them was close to the mid-level God-Rank!
If they used their powerful artifacts, they might even have the chance to kill the Fu Long Battle Team!
But what was this?
Even a Quasi-Emperor would find it hard to break through this array!
In other words, this group of people had overreached themselves. Even if they admitted defeat now, they would not be able to get out!
Even if the Protoss Quasi-Emperors came, they would not be able to save them!
Then, Xiao Bai turned into a spectator and stood outside to watch the show.
Lin Zijin, Wen Jun, and Si Yin flew over from afar and stood beside Shirō Makino. Together with the spectators outside, they watched the show seriously.
Si Yin thought for a while and took out a melon from her space ring. Just as she was about to take a bite, she felt Wen Jun's gaze.
She hesitated for a moment and passed the melon to Wen Jun.
Then, she took out another and gave it to Xiao Bai.
She took out another and gave it to Zijin.
In the end, after searching for a long time, she was a little depressed because she had only brought three melons. If she had known earlier, she would have brought one more.
Lin Zijin gently broke it and gave half to Si Yin.
Si Yin had a look of gratitude. "Thank you!"
Everyone went crazy.
If Xiao Bai knew how to dance, he might even bring the three girls to dance in the sky and use it as background music —
Come, draw a dragon with me on the left.
