Uncle Xiao gritted his teeth and said: "On the night of the coup, Xu Guohai was one of the biggest accomplices. Now he is in a high position and has been entrusted with the important task of guarding the arsenal. The benefits and treatment he gets are unimaginable."

"Xu Guozhong..." He Caitou whispered this name that still had some impression on him.

Judging from the Xu family pedigree, even the current prince Xu Tianran would respectfully call him uncle.

He Caitou vaguely remembered that when his father was alive, he never treated Prince Xu Guozhong badly. But this man with the word "loyalty" in his name was not loyal at all.

Uncle Xiao continued: "Now I am dormant under his hand. If there is a chance, I will make him go to the late emperor to apologize."

He Caitou listened to Uncle Xiao pouring out his resentment, whom he had not seen for many years, and the long-suppressed negative emotions in his heart were once again ignited.

His father, the emperor, was kind-hearted and worked hard to govern. He was a benevolent emperor known throughout the Ming Dynasty. He not only won the loyalty of most of his ministers, but also was deeply loved by the people of the Ming Dynasty. He led the entire Sun and Moon Empire to prosper.

However, such a benevolent king was ruined by his "benevolence".

Before He Caitou's imperial grandfather died, he asked him to deprive the imperial brother of all his power. However, He Caitou's father refused out of mercy.

He also suffered disaster because of his kindness, and also had that bloody night.

He Caitou's expression became more ferocious. Without the human skin mask, his face looked even more terrifying.

After a long silence, He Caitou lowered his voice and asked: "Uncle Xiao, you said that you are working under Xu Bozhong and have access to the largest underground arsenal in Mingdu, right?"

Uncle Xiao nodded: "Yes, with His Royal Highness."

He Caitou's voice became even deeper: "So, how many level nine custom-made soul-guided artillery shells are currently in reserve in that arsenal?"

"Many custom-made artillery shells have been transferred by the military, and now there are only three." Uncle Xiao answered immediately, but he was quickly stunned, "He Prince, do you want to..."

"But if we really do this, even the people of Mingdu will be implicated!"

He Caitou said emotionally: "Uncle Xiao, I don't care about anything anymore, I just want revenge!"

"I don't know why I am alive now. The only motivation that drives me to live is revenge!"

"I must pay with the blood of those evil beasts!"

"There is no time to wait for me to hide my capabilities and bide my time. Only the ninth-level custom-installed soul-guided artillery shells can send them to my father to make amends now!"

"Will you help me?"

He Caitou could feel his heartbeat getting faster and faster, and his breathing getting heavier and heavier, as if the scene of successful revenge had already been staged before his eyes.

After a long period of hesitation, Uncle Xiao shed a stream of tears and said in a trembling voice: "The kindness of the late Emperor will be unforgettable. I will follow His Highness to the death."

He had already felt He Caitou's madness, and a strong sense of sadness filled his heart.

The prince and prince whom he had watched grow up, the only bloodline left in the world by the benevolent emperor, completely changed after that night.

After more than ten years of living in a foreign country and carrying a blood feud, the young man in front of him has already changed.

Uncle Xiao did not disobey He Caitou. In fact, he knew in his heart that he was just like He Caitou. The only thing that kept him alive was revenge.

After losing this goal, you can only live in confusion.

Uncle Xiao calmed down and said, "Prince He, I know that there is another place where there is a large reserve of level nine custom-made soul-guided artillery shells."

He Caitou quickly asked: "Where is it?"

"Mingde Hall."

When He Caitou heard this, a coldness appeared in his eyes.

"Uncle Xiao, let's go."

"Okay, Your Highness the Prince, please come with me."

There was a long silence between the monarch and his ministers before they left the hotel.

He Caitou took one last look in the direction of Mingyue Hotel, then resolutely followed Uncle Xiao and left.

Today is the day before the start of the quarterfinals, and it is also the day when the opponents are drawn.

The quarterfinals will be divided into upper and lower halves, and all four games will be completed within one day.

The top half consists of the four teams ranked second in the group, and the bottom half consists of the four teams ranked first in the group.

After the quarter-finals of the two half-districts, the two top-four teams in the half-districts will compete in the semi-finals, and then the final winners of the upper and lower halves will compete in the finals.

Early in the morning, the team leaders and players of all eight teams gathered in the luxurious banquet hall of Mingyue Hotel, waiting for the arrival of the judging panel and organizing committee.

There is still some time before the lottery ceremony, and the teams are discussing tactics, making the hall a little noisy.

Only four members of the Tang Sect team are present, namely Beibei, Xu Sanshi, Tang Ya, and Jiang Nannan.

Beibei lowered his head and analyzed: "This time in the quarterfinals, we controlled the points very well and were not assigned to the more intense lower half."

"Ruling out all possibilities, the Snow Demon Sect should be the fake name of the Noumenon Sect. The two strong teams of the Noumenon Sect and the Holy Spirit Sect in the lower half are avoided by us. In the upper half, there is only one strong opponent, Sun Moon Academy."

"It's a pity that the probability of encountering a strong enemy will be greatly increased."

The strength of Shrek's second team is far inferior to that of the first team. If they encounter the Noumenon Sect or the Holy Spirit Sect, the chances of winning are honestly not great.

Xu Sanshi said carelessly: "Beibei, have you forgotten that there is also Yu Hao's Dragon Tiger Gate?"

Beibei smiled slightly and was about to continue speaking when she saw Wang Dongzheng and Xiao Xiao rushing towards her from afar.

"Elder brother, senior sister, it's not good." Wang Dong looked worried.

"What's wrong, Wang Dong? Don't be impatient, tell me slowly if you have something to do." Beibei signaled Wang Dong to relax.

Wang Dong said anxiously: "Second Senior Brother is missing."

The second senior brother naturally refers to He Caitou, who ranks second in age after Beibei.

"What?" Beibei was stunned and asked hurriedly.

"When did he disappear?"

Xiao Xiao worriedly said: "He said last night that he was going to watch the Mingdu Underground Soul Master Competition, but he never came back."

Xu Sanshi was dumbfounded: "Ah? Could it be that he lost all his wealth and was detained by underground forces? I had advised him not to go to any underground games."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Jiang Nannan frowned and said: "Xu Sanshi, what time has it been and you are still making sarcastic remarks."

Tang Ya exclaimed: "How can that be done? Let's go find the vegetables quickly!"

With that said, she was about to walk out.

Beibei quickly persuaded her: "Xiaoya, don't worry. Caitou is also a seventh-level soul engineer, so he will be fine."

Tang Ya then calmed down, nodded and said, "Okay."

At this time, Xu Sanshi said: "What if we can't find the vegetables?"

Jiang Nannan glared at him fiercely: "Xu Sanshi, can you say something nice from your mouth?"

Xu Sanshi said aggrievedly: "I also think about everyone. There are only seven of us. If Caitou is really lost and there is no substitute, will the next game have to be six against seven?"

Tang Ya suddenly became excited and said, "It's such a big deal now that people are missing. Do you still only think about the game?"

Xu Sanshi was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became a little serious. He lowered his head slightly and apologized: "It was my fault."

Now Tang Ya seems to have shown her majesty as a sect leader for the first time. Even Tang Ya herself did not realize that in her mind, the people of the Tang Sect seemed to be more important than the glory of the Tang Sect.

It's one o'clock.

Wang Dong was also extremely worried about the whereabouts of He Caitou at this moment.

Caitou and Caitou heard about the underground soul master competition in Mingdu before, and said that as soul masters, they had to go to watch it no matter what, and they came back safely before dawn every time.

But until now, He Caitou is still missing.

At this moment, a slightly old voice said casually.

"Ignore him and continue competing."

Everyone in the Tang Clan turned around after hearing this, only to see a sloppy old man eating chicken legs.

It is Taotie Douluo, Mr. Xuan.

"But, Mr. Xuan..." Tang Ya was about to say something, but was interrupted by Mr. Xuan.

"The current grouping situation is very unfavorable. The second team has been assigned to the upper half of the area where there are many powerful enemies. Their strength is not as good as yours. We can only rely on you to defend Shrek's glory."

Xuan Lao said: "Don't let the lack of players affect your mentality. I know you don't have reserve players. I will see if I can find an opportunity to draw someone from the second team to become your substitute."

He threw away the chicken leg bone in his hand and continued: "Xie Huanyue's figure is somewhat similar to He Caitou, and her strength is also good. Perhaps Ning Tian can be transferred over to provide you with a soul mentor or auxiliary system.

Soul Master."

Mr. Xuan took a final sip of wine: "As for He Caitou, the elders and I will help find him, so don't worry."

Listening to Elder Xuan's instructions, everyone in the Tang Clan remained silent.

Beibei whispered: "That's all we can do for now, just follow Mr. Xuan's arrangements."

Tang Ya could only nod respectfully: "Yes, Mr. Xuan."

No one in the Tang Sect expressed any objection to Elder Xuan's arrangement. Although they were the Tang Sect team in name, they all knew in their hearts that they were the first team of Shrek Academy.

"Well, let's draw lots first."

After Mr. Xuan finished his instructions, he turned his back and continued to take out a chicken leg and eat it.
