Was the exclusive viewing area for the Emperor.
After sitting down, Jin Mian finally experienced the kind of "sea of people" scene he had seen during the World Cup in his previous life.
The current scene was several times more intense than the World Cup!
Not counting the spectators who hadn't entered yet.
The number of spectators already inside was comparable to the total population of a small country.
Just the army maintaining order on-site.
Reached over ten thousand men.
"Wow!"
"I didn't really feel it outside just now."
"But looking from here, there are really so many people!"
Ye Lingling couldn't help but exclaim, her watery eyes constantly scanning the arena.
Before long.
The teams participating in the Qualifiers also entered in an orderly fashion.
Aside from the familiar Heaven Dou Royal Academy and the Five Elements.
There were also the Plant Academy, Canghui Academy, Strange Beast Academy, Barak Academy, and so on... "Eh? What academy is this?"
"Not only is everyone wearing a mask, but why are they all wearing such ugly, poop-green uniforms?"
Ye Lingling pointed with a look of disgust.
"They are the Shrek Academy we met before."
Jin Mian's mouth twitched a couple of times.
For a team that could wear such ugly clothes.
He didn't even have to guess.
He knew which academy it was.
After all, besides Shrek having such poor taste, which other academy could it be?
"They're Shrek?" Ye Lingling was a bit surprised.
Because as far as she knew, Shrek Academy was only an intermediate Soul Master academy.
And to participate in this competition.
One had to be an advanced academy.
But soon, she confirmed through Zhu Zhuqing's iconic 'ostrich eggs' that this was indeed Shrek Academy.
Similarly.
Students from other academies also found Shrek Academy's uniforms hideous.
Especially Ning Rongrong.
Looking at those nauseatingly ugly Shrek uniforms.
She patted her still relatively small chest and said luckily, "Fortunately, I'm not a student of that academy, otherwise, if I had to wear such a uniform, I'd rather die."
"As expected, Shrek really is quite shitty."
After the participating teams had basically entered.
Several heavyweight guests finally arrived at the VIP section.
They were.
The current Emperor of the Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe (Qian Renxue)!
Ning Fengzhi, the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Imperial Preceptor, along with the Sword Douluo Chen Xin following behind him.
Salas, one of the Platinum Bishops of the Spirit Hall.
When Salas saw Jin Mian sitting below, he quickly nodded in greeting.
This action piqued Ning Fengzhi's curiosity.
A mere participant representing the Spirit Hall.
Could actually make a Platinum Bishop take the initiative to greet him.
Hmm!
This person's background must not be simple.
After everyone was seated.
The host immediately took the stage and invited the Emperor of the Tiandou Empire to give a pre-match speech.
Clap clap clap... Amidst a round of applause.
Xue Qinghe came to the front of the stage.
And gave a speech full of completely meaningless platitudes.
Next, it was Ning Fengzhi's turn.
Of course, the host didn't ask him to give a speech but instead asked which team he was most optimistic about.
Ning Fengzhi didn't hide it and directly stated he favored the Huang Dou Team.
As for the reason.
There was none other.
Than his own daughter being in the Huang Dou Team.
As for Shrek Academy, he wasn't familiar with them at all.
Soon it was Salas's turn.
He didn't remain silent like in the original story.
Instead, he stood up and first made a few objective remarks.
Then, he introduced the Hall of Worship Team consisting of Jin Mian and Ye Lingling to everyone!
