The entire Douluo Continent was abuzz after that day.
The powerhouses of the Sun Moon Continent were also shaken.
Although the first match of the Soul Master Tournament was between Shrek Academy and its opponent, the battle wasn't particularly exciting. Most of Shrek's team members didn't even move. There was no fierce fighting, nor much contention.
But it was still the most exciting opening in years, everyone agreed.
The Shrek Seven Devils had a leader for the first time, and everyone was stunned by Su Qingfeng's looks and bearing, making him the most popular contestant.
This was also Shrek Academy's announcement to everyone on both continents: Shrek now had a peerless genius, and he would be the core of the future of Douluo Continent and the Sun Moon Continent!
He was Su Qingfeng!
Similarly, a tall tree attracts the wind. Everyone wanted a genius, and Su Qingfeng's stunning display of the Light Spear Technique on the spot also attracted many forces coveting his 'beauty' and talent.
Whether it was the Sun Moon Empire Royal Academy, the Holy Spirit Cult, or other forces, after this match, they all began to notify their core personnel to hold small meetings.
With Su Qingfeng leaving the arena, almost all the spectators were filled with regret, shouting:
"Shrek! Shrek!!"
"Su Qingfeng, don't leave us!"
"We just want to watch Shrek's matches!!"
"Please, don't go! I'll really die!"
"Aaaaaah!"
Watching Su Qingfeng and the others return to the Star Emperor Hotel, all the spectators were trying to persuade them to stay.
The event's host and the referees felt the same way, but the competition still had to continue. They could only announce with helplessness:
"Everyone, please be quiet. Like you all, I also admire and adore the handsome leader from Shrek Academy. But the Soul Master Tournament is a continent-wide event with over a hundred advanced Soul Master academies participating. We need to give them a fair chance to compete. Shrek's matches will follow, and I believe everyone will see the first leader of the Shrek Seven Devils again very soon! Please be patient, alright?"
Though the host tried hard to calm down, it didn't work well. Everyone was already lost in Su Qingfeng's peerless beauty.
The following elimination matches didn't rouse much emotion in the audience. Even with some impressive displays of strength, they couldn't be surprised because, compared to Su Qingfeng's looks, it was nothing!
Back at the Star Emperor Hotel, Elder Xuan and Yan Shaozhe were waiting at the entrance.
Seeing Su Qingfeng and the other six return, Elder Xuan and Yan Shaozhe both beamed. Shrek had stolen the show today, even more so than when they'd won championships in the past!
Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen were happy for Su Qingfeng, but they were also envious.
They could clearly hear the screams of the fangirls outside, the sound like an unstoppable tsunami.
They were saying all sorts of outrageous things, like: "We three sisters are willing to take care of our leader brother, come have fun, let us in!"
Some spectators were close enough to the Star Emperor Hotel that their voices could even be heard, a sound that would excite any young man.
This scene was truly disheartening.
Perhaps the goddess you had painstakingly pursued, spending both effort and money, would remain unattainable. Yet, because of a single face, they would unhesitatingly throw themselves at someone else, becoming that person's lapdog.
After today, who knew how many couples would break up, and how many loving couples would turn to mutual loathing.
Ma Xiaotao walked directly to the entrance of the Star Luo Hotel and shouted at the group of frenzied fans: "Shut up! You noisy lot! I haven't even had a taste, and you think you can get involved? Go watch your matches!"
"Alright, Xiaotao, there are too many of them, you won't win. Come back."
Yan Shaozhe knew Ma Xiaotao's fiery temper; if he didn't stop her, she would start a fight with those people.
Elder Xuan appeared at this moment, carrying a wine jug and a dog leg as thick as a human arm, and led them into the conference room.
While walking in the corridor, even the Star Luo Hotel's service staff widened their eyes, staring at Su Qingfeng as if they were looking at a god. It was unbelievable; how could such a handsome person exist in the world?
In short, Elder Xuan and Yan Shaozhe completely understood Elder Mu's decisiveness at this moment, and they immediately gave Su Qingfeng the best disciple status and favor the Sea God Pavilion had ever seen.
In fact, although they were also amazed by Su Qingfeng at first, as one of the managers of the Sea God Pavilion, they also had doubts in their hearts, that is, whether this incredibly handsome person could handle this important task. Now it seems that Elder Mu's decision back then was truly wise and brilliant.
Arriving in the meeting room, Elder Xuan took a big bite of the dog leg. It was really hard to imagine how he, with such an old body, could eat so much every day:
"The Saint's opening today caused a great sensation. You've all seen those fanatical fans outside. The Saint is still competing as a Soul Master. If he reveals his powerful martial soul later, the scene will probably be even more explosive."
"You may not be very clear about the outside world's perception on the field, after all, you are protected by that defensive shield. You may not even think about things on other levels, but as your main team leader, I must protect your safety and prevent a situation like the one in the Mingdou Mountain Range from happening again."
"Since Elder Mu had such affection and the desire to take the Saint as a disciple back then, the Saint today is even better than he was then. I'm afraid that many people behind the scenes are preparing to snatch the Saint."
"So, starting today, no one is allowed to go out without my and Shaozhe's company. Even in the hotel, you need to be fully vigilant, especially the Saint, and Qiu'er."
Elder Xuan instructed, these words were for everyone, but mainly for Su Qingfeng, followed by Qiu'er.
Su Qingfeng was simply too charming. Qiu'er, having taken human form from the Three-Eyed Golden Lion, possessed a devilishly attractive figure and an angelic face. Together, they were a deadly combination. Furthermore, Qiu'er was only in her forties in terms of spirit power level, still some distance from the mature stage of a transformed soul beast, and thus easily recognizable by experts.
"Hmm! I agree with Elder Xuan. It's not safe for Little Martial Uncle to sleep alone. I'll keep him company tonight, to protect him and prevent any bad guys from climbing through the window!"
Ma Xiaotao said earnestly.
Ling Luochen glanced at her. "I want to as well."
Qiu'er harrumphed, "Just the two of you? I am Star Lord Brother's auspicious beast. I used to sleep with Star Lord Brother before. Being with me is the best choice."
Tang Wutong said coldly, "Stop arguing, I'm the most suitable."
"I... I think... it's better for boys to sleep with boys. I'll keep Qingfeng-ge company..."
Huo Yuhao mumbled from behind.
Several female teammates all turned their heads and glared at him:
"Why are you butting in!"
"Hmph, you ignorant fools, you can only be envious from the outside. My love, this genius girl is here to find you!"
Meng Hongchen also returned to the Star Luo Hotel. There was nothing interesting about the subsequent matches. She just wanted to contact Su Qingfeng quickly!
But as soon as she stepped into the Star Luo Hotel, she was surrounded by people wearing Star Luo royal enforcement uniforms:
"You are under arrest, charged with: Suspected of disrupting the order of the competition venue."
Meng Hongchen: "(｀⊿) What? Bold!"
