Lu Ming vs. Shrek! The Chat Group Was Ablaze! Red Packets!

[I Have No Mother: @Emperor Lu, can you keep sending red packets? I can represent the Heaven Dou Empire and meet any condition you have.]

Qian Renxue's words were direct and domineering, full of transactional intent.

[Pontiff: @Emperor Lu, This Seat can give you Spirit Hall's Holy Son, or even the Pontiff's Seat. As long as you produce another identical red packet.]

Bibi Dong had thrown out an earth-shattering bargaining chip.

[My Cat is White and Big: Great Group Master, I... I can also pay any price.]

Although Zhu Zhuqing's voice was softer, the determination within it was incomparably firm.

For a time, several people in the group began trying to curry favor with Lu Ming.

Whether through temptation or coquettishness, they had only one goal: to make him send another Wish Red Packet.

Lu Ming watched their performance with a faint smile on his face.

He slowly typed three words.

[Emperor Lu: There are no more.]

The atmosphere in the group froze.

[Little Witch: Huh? How could there be no more? Group Leader, you're lying!]

Lu Ming continued typing unhurriedly.

[Emperor Lu: This kind of benefit is random. It depends on how active you are.]

[Emperor Lu: However, as long as you keep up this enthusiasm, share more interesting stories, and keep the Chat Group active.]

[Emperor Lu: I guarantee that the next reward will only be richer and more beyond your imagination than this one.]

Lu Ming's words were like a shot of adrenaline, instantly injected into everyone's hearts.

That was right!

Just because there were none this time did not mean there would be none next time!

And the Group Leader had personally guaranteed that the next reward would be even better!

The people who had just been dejected immediately rekindled their hopes.

[Little Witch: Yay! Long live Great Group Master! I'll definitely come chat every day!]

[Fox is Most Pure: Hehe, for the next reward, I'll definitely dig up plenty of gossip to share with everyone!]

[Pontiff: Hmph.]

[I Have No Mother: Understood.]

The atmosphere in the group became lively once more.

Lu Ming watched all this with satisfaction. The bait had been cast; now he only had to wait for the fish to take the hook themselves.

Little leeks, work hard and shine.

Inside the student dormitories of Blue Tyrant Academy.

Lu Ming slowly opened his eyes. The Chat Group Interface in his Sea of Consciousness had already faded away.

The frenzy in the group had yet to subside, but he was no longer paying attention to it.

His goal had already been achieved.

Ah Yin's resurrection had stirred ripples powerful enough to keep everyone in the group from remaining calm.

Whether through threats or temptation, their desire for the "Wish Red Packet" had already climbed to its peak.

And that was exactly what Lu Ming wanted.

He felt the surging Soul Power within his body. The power of level fifty-three filled every part of his body, bringing an unprecedented sense of control.

The God-Bestowed Soul Ring and Spirit Bone rewarded by the system lay quietly in the System Space, waiting for him to absorb them.

But he was in no hurry.

Now was not the time to reveal too many trump cards.

After all, a group of "distinguished guests" would be arriving soon.

The Next Day, early morning.

The atmosphere on Blue Tyrant Academy's internal training grounds was somewhat solemn.

Led by Lu Ming, the reserve members of the Blue Tyrant Team were holding an internal sparring match.

"Lu Ming, watch out!"

A burly team member shouted. Two yellow Soul Rings lit up beneath his feet, and his massive body charged toward Lu Ming like a wild bull.

The other team members also unleashed their Soul Skills, harassing and restraining him from different directions.

However, faced with this seemingly airtight encirclement, Lu Ming's expression did not change in the slightest.

He did not even release his Martial Soul.

Just as the burly team member was about to crash into him, Lu Ming merely swayed lightly and appeared at the man's side like a ghost.

He held two fingers together like a sword and lightly tapped the team member's waist.

The burly team member's forward momentum came to an abrupt halt. It was as though he had been struck by a paralysis spell; his whole body went numb, and he collapsed limply.

Immediately afterward, Lu Ming's figure left a series of afterimages across the field.

With every flash, another team member fell.

The entire process was smooth and effortless, without the slightest trace of strain.

In barely a dozen seconds, Lu Ming was the only person still standing on the field.

Dead Silence filled the entire venue.

All the watching students widened their eyes, their mouths hanging open wide enough to fit an egg.

"Th... that's it?"

"He didn't even use his Soul Rings!"

"He's too strong! Senior Lu Ming is unbelievably strong!"

"!!!"

At the edge of the field, Liu Erlong looked at her disciple, her Beautiful Eyes Full of gratification and pride.

She knew Lu Ming was strong, but she had not expected him to be this strong already.

This child always managed to bring her surprises.

"Alright, get up, everyone."

Liu Erlong stepped forward, her voice gentle.

Only then did the fallen team members climb to their feet one by one, grimacing in pain. Their gazes toward Lu Ming were Full of reverence.

"From today onward, Lu Ming will be the Captain of our Blue Tyrant Team. Do any of you have objections?"

Liu Erlong swept her gaze across the crowd and announced loudly.

"No!"

Everyone answered in unison, utterly convinced.

At that moment, a pretty female team member could not help but speak up.

"Dean, Captain Lu Ming is so strong. We'll definitely achieve excellent results in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament! But..."

She bit her lip and said unwillingly,

"But why should those people from that Shrek Academy take our competition slot the moment they arrive?"

As soon as she said this, the other team members echoed her words, each of them filled with righteous indignation.

Hearing this, Lu Ming's lips curved slightly. He nodded and said, "Exactly. Why should Blue Tyrant Academy's slot be given to a pack of Lost Dogs driven out by Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"

His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.

Seeing the confidence in her disciple's eyes, Liu Erlong felt a surge of heroic spirit rise within her.

"Good! Just as expected of my disciple!"

She waved her hand.

"Everyone, come with me! I want to see exactly what qualifications that group of Little Monsters Xiaogang brought has to steal Blue Tyrant Academy's slot!"

Elsewhere in the academy.

The people of Shrek Academy were training under Yu Xiaogang's guidance.

Just then, Liu Erlong arrived with the Blue Tyrant Team in an imposing manner.

"Erlong, what are you..." Seeing Liu Erlong's stance, Flender was somewhat bewildered.

Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly and looked at Liu Erlong.

Liu Erlong ignored them. Her gaze fell directly on the Shrek Seven Devils as she got straight to the point.

"Xiaogang, I know your theories are impressive, and I also believe the students you've taught are not weak.

"But the competition slot for the Spirit Master Tournament was something our Blue Tyrant Academy fought hard to obtain. You cannot simply take it because you want it. I only gave you some face because of our past."

"Therefore, I propose that the children from both sides have a match."

"Whoever wins gets the slot."
