Internal troubles unexposed, conflict redirected

Wu Qi cautioned, "Don't be careless, and certainly don't ignore it."

With the competition drawing ever closer, everything is affecting the nerves of every Battle Team.

"It cannot be ruled out that this is a smokescreen deliberately released by the Shrek Academy to distract everyone and pave the way for their performance in the competition."

Feng Xiaotian also adopted a cautious attitude, saying, "Just treat them with normalcy and don't let them interfere with our training."

A voice snorted from the Qiangu Changkong: "Why bother with these clowns? Let's go, let's go have a feast."

Early the next morning.

After a night of reflection, the Shrek Seven Devils gradually calmed down.

During breakfast, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun bumped into Tang San. Although they didn't fight, they didn't get along at all.

As for Yu Xiaogang, he hadn't recovered after a whole night. Under Liu Erlong's care, he kept saying negative things and even had suicidal thoughts.

Flender understood that he couldn't rely on the other party for the time being, so he simply called on Zhao Wuji to start resolving the internal conflicts within the team.

In the morning, the Shrek Seven Devils gathered on the playground, but before they knew it, they had split into three teams, each a distance from the others and ignoring one another.

Flender looked at the crowd and sighed inwardly.

Zhao Wuji immediately followed up, "What, didn't you have enough yesterday? Want to have another match today?"

"Alright, I'll watch you fight. No one's leaving until you've killed your opponent."

He had discussed it with Flender beforehand, with one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.

Seeing that Zhao Wuji's imposing manner had intimidated the Shrek Seven Devils, Flender quickly added, "Old Zhao, what are you saying? They're all just kids, what kind of talk is this, shouting about fighting and killing!"

Zhao Wuji sneered, "What? With them looking like this, how can they possibly reconcile? In my opinion, it's better if two of them die. Before the competition starts, let's find two more capable people to fill the gaps in the team."

Ma Hongjun was unhappy, but it was far from a matter of life and death.

Besides, they're all quite young; it would be really hard for them to bring themselves to kill someone.

Ma Hongjun was the first to succumb to the pressure and spoke up, "Teacher, we were just joking around, we didn't mean to kill anyone."

Zhao Wuji sneered, "Now you're scared? You didn't say that yesterday. Are you still going to fight or not?"

Flender glared at him and said, "Don't listen to Teacher Zhao's nonsense, Hongjun. Since you know you're wrong, then start by apologizing to Little San and Grandmaster."

Seeing that Zhao Wuji still wanted to stir up trouble, Ma Hongjun quickly turned to Tang San and sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry, Third Brother. I was too confused yesterday and wronged Grandmaster and all of you."

Tang San was not a petty person; his purpose in fighting the other party was simply to clear Yu Xiaogang's name.

Now that Ma Hongjun has backed down, he has no reason to continue keeping a straight face.

"Fatty, I went too far yesterday, and I apologize to you and Mu Bai."

"Mu Bai, Xiao Wu was too hasty yesterday and said some hurtful things. I apologize to you on her behalf."

Seeing that the desired effect had been achieved, Flender finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, the Shrek Seven Devils are partners who have been through life and death together, and they won't completely break up over something like this.

However, the fact remains that the Immortal Herb is gone, and if the contradictions cannot be shifted, internal conflict is likely to erupt again.

He paused, then said, "Little Monster, immortal Immortal Herb aren't a panacea. So many Titled Douluo in the Spirit Master world, did they all rely on Immortal Herb to break through?"

"You guys are just too stubborn and too eager for quick success."

"Even if we don't have Immortal Herb now, wouldn't they appear in the future? You all know the benefits of Immortal Herb, so you won't miss them if you encounter them during your cultivation journey."

What's the difference between getting a promotion early or late?

Tang San understood that, as the spiritual leader of the team, he had indeed acted too impulsively yesterday.

Following up on the other person's words, he added, "Don't worry, everyone. If I encounter Immortal Herb during my cultivation journey, I will definitely give them to you unconditionally."

"The matter of the Immortal Herb arose because of me, and I apologize to everyone."

Yu Tianheng sighed, "It's all my fault for being too hasty. If I had brought Tang San with me into Thunderclap Canyon, none of this conflict would have happened. I apologize to everyone."

After the conversation was over, the Shrek Seven Devils made up as before.

However, a slight resentment inevitably remained in their hearts.

To avoid further mental strain on everyone due to the matter of the Immortal Herb, Flender made the following arrangements:

"Alright, now that everyone has realized their mistake, let's make everyone run ten laps around the track as punishment!"

"Furthermore, starting tonight, everyone must participate in one Soul Fighting at the Great Soul Arena every night. With the Spirit Master Competition just around the corner, it's time for us to enter the final sprint."

Inside the Dormitory.

Yu Xiaogang was extremely depressed.

"Er Long, why is my luck so bad?"

"Back then, due to a health problem, my half-awakened Golden Sacred Dragon Martial Soul degenerated into Luo Sanpao."

"Later, I conducted theoretical research at the Spirit Hall, but was expelled again. Now, I finally have a chance for Martial Soul Transformation, but it has slipped through my fingers once more."

"Why is God so cruel to me? Am I, Yu Xiaogang, born a good-for-nothing?"

With tears in her eyes, Liu Erlong grabbed the other's arm. "Yu Xiaogang, it's not like that. There must be other ways. At worst, I live in the Star Dou Great Forest and will definitely find a suitable Immortal Herb for you."

Outside the door, Flender watched this scene with a complex expression.

The one who tied the knot must untie it.

Tang San was the only one who truly understood the matter of the Immortal Herb, and it was only he who could persuade Yu Xiaogang.

With the Spirit Master Competition just around the corner, if Yu Xiaogang can't adjust his mindset in time, can the Shrek Team still achieve good results?

After months of silence, the Shrek Academy Team reappeared on the Great Soul Arena Arena, attracting the attention of countless people.

Logically, with several months to go before the major competition, Battle Team should avoid participating to ensure their tactics are not leaked.

Shrek Academy, on the other hand, does the exact opposite.

For a time, many Leading Teacher from various academies came to the Great Soul Arena, trying to figure out Shrek Academy's tactical system.

Even Sun Buyu was among them.

Upon learning the news, the Seven Treasures Team Members also had the idea of challenging them.

Wu Qi, however, was in no hurry. "A pre-match sparring session will indeed help determine the strength of the opponent in the subsequent matches."

"But there are too many eyes watching us; we can't let a moment of excitement reveal our true strength."

Feng Xiaotian pondered for a while, then said, "Team Captain, why don't we use this as a smokescreen, employing other tactics to mislead the opponent into understanding our true strategy? Wouldn't that give us a greater advantage in the match?"

Wu Qi couldn't deny it, but the tactics they were currently training on were the same tactics they would use in a match, and he was reluctant to reveal them.

Ning Rongrong spoke up, "Then let's turn the Team Spirit Battle into a one-on-one Soul Fighting."

"This way, we can understand the enemy's situation without suffering any losses ourselves."
