Although ordinary spectators were prohibited from entering the Promotion Tournament, Xiao Wu's level and Spirit Ring Configuration still sparked heated discussions among the members of various academies in the stands.

Of all the people I care about most is Huo Wu.

"Brother, what's the deal with the Shrek Academy?" Huo Wu asked in a low voice, her eyes full of confusion, as she leaned closer to Huo Wushuang before she went on stage after his defeat.

"At first, I thought Zhu Zhuqing was an exception. Now it seems that these Soul Ring with super-limited lifespans and abnormal Soul Power Level are mass-produced!"

"Do you think they've mastered some new cultivation methods or Spirit Ring Absorption techniques?"

Huo Wushuang rubbed his lower back, which was a little sore from the kick, and shook his head with a wry smile, saying, "You've asked the wrong person about this. How would I know about these things?"

"However, Shrek has ten members in the competition so far, and judging from their appearance and age, six of them are extremely talented."

"But the only ones who truly defy common sense are Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing. Have you ever wondered why?"

Huo Wu shook her head decisively, her red hair fluttering in the wind.

Within the Huo Family, her only responsibility was to enhance her strength and bring glory to the family. Deep thinking was never something she was given the opportunity to do.

Seeing his sister so self-righteous, Huo Wushuang said helplessly:

"I don't know the specific reason. But I guess even if there is some special method, it's probably not in the hands of the academy."

He paused, then analyzed, "Perhaps... there are factions within Shrek Academy itself. Otherwise, how can you explain this difference?"

Huo Wu recalled the scene where Zhu Zhuqing's "Full Moon" easily defeated "Fire Dance Sun," and unconsciously clenched her fists, a resolute light flashing in her eyes:

"I must get to the bottom of this!"

Huo Wushuang quickly grabbed her sister's arm, as if she would rush out if she let go. "Don't do anything reckless!"

"I heard that after Zhu Zhuqing's first appearance, many forces had designs on Shrek, but they were all warned by the royal family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and eventually they all backed down!"

He then lowered his voice. "This includes... the Elephant Armor Sect!"

"The Elephant Armor Sect?!" Huo Wu's eyes widened in shock. "Aren't they in cahoots with the Spirit Hall? How could they be afraid of the royal family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

Huo Wushuang looked at her younger sister, whose mind was still quite sharp at the moment, and while feeling gratified, she sighed, "Can't you speak a little more politely, you're a girl?"

Huo Wu paused for a moment, then scoffed, "Tch! Not wearing pants is uncivilized!"

"Brother, don't interrupt, tell me quickly what's going on with the Elephant Armor Sect?"

Huo Wushuang had no choice but to explain:

"You said it yourself, the Elephant Armor Sect is all in cahoots with the Spirit Hall... they're completely on the same page as the Spirit Hall and have no fear of the royal family or the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"But they haven't caused any trouble for Shrek yet, and in the meantime..."

Huo Wu pondered for a moment, then asked in astonishment, "You don't mean... even the Spirit Hall got involved, do you? Does Shrek have that much influence?"

Huo Wushuang shook his head and said, "I don't know. Anyway, don't meddle, lest you cause trouble for your family."

"Okay!" Huo Wu reluctantly agreed, her eyes filled with resentment.

Huo Wushuang raised his hand and ruffled his sister's red hair, teasingly asking, "Aren't you really going to reconsider the marriage alliance with the royal family?"

"The royal family might know the inside story about Shrek's problems!"

Huo Wu slapped his hand away and said angrily, "Brother!"

Huo Wushuang quickly begged for forgiveness, "Alright, alright, I was just kidding."

During the recent break, Grand Marshal Ge Long transformed into a "royal matchmaker," frequently arranging marriages for Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.

Both the Meng Family and the Shui Family politely declined.

Meng Yiran has emerged from seclusion and reached level 46 with the help of Lin Hai's Spirit Ring Pill.

Although more than two years have been lost, an 18-year-old level 46 Soul Ancestor is still extremely rare, and his future is limitless.

Besides, the Dragon Duke and Snake Matriarch are hoping Lin Hai will become their granddaughter's husband, so how could they possibly agree?!

Needless to say, the Shui Family has a "family heirloom fiancé," and the whole family works together to achieve "complete harmony"!

Huo Yao 'Huo Wu father, was somewhat tempted, but after Huo Wu plucked a tuft of his beard from his Huo Wu, he could only apologize to Ge Long and say that he would "carefully consider" it.

He secretly approached Huo Wushuang and asked him to persuade his sister.

Huo Wushuang was helpless about this; his father was really going all out on him!

But he didn't dare to argue, because he didn't receive the same treatment as Huo Wu at home.

However, out of loyalty to his friend, he still revealed the matter to his good brother Feng Xiaotian.

If he had to choose, he would prefer Feng Xiaotian to be his brother-in-law.

That guy's sycophantic behavior is despicable, but it's his own sister who benefits.

If it works out, there's absolutely no need to worry about Huo Wu's future status in the family!

Blazing Academy ultimately lost.

Surprisingly, Huo Wu.

After defeating several Shrek substitutes and exchanging a few simple blows with Dai Mubai, he decisively conceded defeat and left the field.

After the match, Huo Wu left alone in silence; she was going to find Zhu Zhuqing.

She wasn't familiar with anyone from Shrek, but she had at least fought Zhu Zhuqing head-on, so they were just nodding acquaintances and could barely talk to each other!

"Little Sister Huo Wu, wait a moment!" A voice, filled with excitement and eagerness, rang out.

Huo Wu sighed softly.

There was no need for much deduction; just from the title, she knew the visitor must be Feng Xiaotian.

Besides him, there is no one else in the world who would call her "Little Sister Huo Wu" so persistently.

Over the years, she has rejected Feng Xiaotian countless times.

I have also warned him many times in a stern and righteous tone not to use this somewhat affectionate nickname anymore!

However, it was all in vain.

This guy has an astonishingly thick skin; he never argues back, never engages in conversation, and just does the same thing again next time.

What frustrated her even more was that this person was like a piece of chewing gum that she couldn't shake off, sticking to her relentlessly.

As long as Huo Wu dares to hit him, he will take the opportunity to stay at the Blazing Academy to recuperate, acting shamelessly as if he is responsible for hurting him.

Huo Wu was completely helpless against him, and could only turn around and ask weakly, "What is it?"

Feng Xiaotian immediately stepped forward with a nervous expression, looking her over with concern:

"Little Sister Huo Wu, are you alright? You seem a bit listless. Are you feeling unwell?"

Mingdu words of concern, they sounded grating to Huo Wu no matter how they came from Feng Xiaotian's mouth!

She took a deep breath and snapped, "What could be wrong with me? Blazing Academy lost to Shrek again. I'm upset and sad! Is that not allowed?"

Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaotian opened his mouth but didn't know how to respond.

If any other academy had defeated Blazing Fire, he would have unhesitatingly patted his chest and promised to avenge her.

But facing Shrek Academy... he truly had no confidence whatsoever! The gap between the two sides was simply too vast!

Even when bragging, it has to be relatively realistic!

Putting aside the question of whether he can deliver on his promise, given his current strength, if he were to make a boast right now that he would avenge Huo Wu, he probably wouldn't even get a simple "I'll wait" in return.

She'll probably just roll her eyes at him and say, "You're so funny!"
