Wu Changkong: Junior Sister, I Hope You Won't Hate Me Afterward

As the Heaven Sea Alliance Tournament progresses, fewer and fewer teams remain after each intense and brutal elimination match.

However, this also means that the remaining contestants are all elites from their respective cities, and the level and intensity of the competition will rise to a new level.

Huo Yuhao sat in the spectator stands of the Eastsea Academy, watching a Three-Person Team Battle Junior Group taking place below. His brows furrowed slightly, and his expression carried a rare seriousness.

He turned slightly to look at Wu Changkong sitting beside him, and said in a low voice, "Teacher, I've been observing the Junior Group's matches these past few days, and many teams are quite formidable."

He paused, a hint of worry in his voice. "Our final 'main event' is the showdown with the Shrek Academy."

"If we reveal our abilities too early or too much in this three-person team competition, it could be very disadvantageous."

Wu Changkong stared intently at Gu Yue and the other two fighting on the stage, and said, "You mean you're no longer participating in the Three-Person Team Battle?"

Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "The teacher sent Gu Yue and the others to compete for the championship to give them experience."

"But compared to winning the championship, defeating the Shrek Team is more challenging."

Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong fell silent, seemingly deep in thought.

Huo Yuhao pressed his advantage, saying, "Moreover, the final of the three-person team competition is on the last day of the tournament."

"Even if Gu Yue and his team manage to fight their way to the finals and win, they will likely face several tough battles, expending a great deal of energy, and may even be injured, which could affect their final showdown with Shrek."

Wu Changkong finally turned his gaze away from the arena and slowly turned his head to look at Huo Yuhao.

After a moment, Wu Changkong spoke calmly, "You go and talk to them about this."

Huo Yuhao smiled, knowing that Wu Changkong had essentially agreed to his proposal.

He replied respectfully, "Yes, teacher!"

Because the Skysea Alliance invited Shrek Academy, this year's competition has received far more attention than in previous years.

Not only within the Skysea Alliance, but also in many other cities across the mainland, broadcasting the matches has increased, drawing countless eyes to the event.

In the Forgemaster competition, Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin both participated in the Junior Group, and naturally they easily won the top two spots by defeating all the opponents.

The two men's forging skills, far beyond their years, even caused a sensation, with many Forgemaster vying to take them on as apprentices.

They only stopped when they learned that the two were apprentices of the Divine Craftsman Zhen Hua and the Eight-Star Saint Craftsman Mu Chen, respectively.

The past ten days have flown by, and the Heaven Sea Alliance Tournament has entered its final stage.

"The Hailu Intermediate Academy... is it really that strong?"

Xie Xie's mind was still replaying the shocking scene on the arena. He couldn't help but sigh softly, his tone even carrying a hint of lingering fear.

In the recently concluded Three-Person Team Battle finals, the Hailu Intermediate Academy team from Hailu City displayed overwhelming strength.

Their trio consisted of two three-ring Soul Elder and one one-ring Soul Grandmaster!

Tang Wulin unconsciously clenched his fist. He was confident that with the terrifying explosive power granted by the Golden Dragon Claw, even with only one ring of cultivation, he could unleash an attack power that surpassed that of an ordinary Soul Grandmaster in an instant.

However, in terms of the speed of Soul Power cultivation, he had to admit that the gap between him and those true geniuses was still obvious.

This gap instilled in him a strong sense of urgency.

Even Huo Yuhao, who is usually calm and collected, felt a lingering fear in his heart at this moment.

The three members of the Hailu Intermediate Academy not only had an advantage in individual strength, but also possessed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill!

Huo Yuhao let out a soft sigh of relief. Fortunately, on his advice, Gu Yue and the others gave up on the subsequent matches after entering the top four.

Otherwise, they would most likely face this team in the finals. The outcome is uncertain, but even if they win, it will be a Pyrrhic victory.

After another afternoon of intense competition, all the matches have come to an end.

Normally speaking, the Heaven Sea Alliance Tournament can now be considered to have come to a successful conclusion.

However, the Skysea Alliance had already announced that a special Exhibition Match would be held at the Closing Ceremony of this tournament.

Shrek Academy's Junior Team will face off against the Eastsea Academy's Class Zero, who previously openly challenged them via broadcast!

Since it involved Shrek Academy, it naturally attracted the attention of countless viewers and even more Federation citizens who followed the event through broadcasts.

Everyone wanted to know: who exactly was this "Class Zero" that dared to challenge the giants?

What will this showdown be like?

Amidst the eager anticipation of everyone, the Closing Ceremony finally moved on to its grand finale.

The rousing broadcast echoed throughout the brightly lit Heaven Sea Stadium.

"As the Heaven Sea Alliance Tournament draws to a close, let's focus our attention on the central arena!"

"Next, we will hold a specially arranged grand finale Exhibition Match!"

"Please welcome both teams to the stage!"

Shrek Academy's Elite Junior Team!

"And, the brave challengers... Eastsea Academy's Class Zero Team!"

By now, it was completely dark outside, and the deep night sky was dotted with countless stars.

Inside the magnificent Heaven Sea Stadium, the Soul-Guiding Lighting System illuminates the entire central area as if it were daytime.

As the host gave an enthusiastic introduction, the two teams walked out from the dedicated passages on both sides of the ring and stepped onto the ring specially built for this match in the center of the stadium.

On either side of the arena, the dark green uniforms of the Shrek Academy students contrasted sharply with the deep blue uniforms of the Eastsea Academy.

Meanwhile, in the VIP suite No. 3 on the upper floor, two figures stood side by side in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

Wu Changkong, and Shen Yi, with his neat white hair and cool face.

Both men focused their attention on the arena below, watching their respective students step into the center of the field.

Shen Yi had already made a basic assessment of Class Zero's strength based on his previous observations and intelligence.

"A Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster who can skillfully control multiple elements."

"The other Two-Ring Soul Grandmaster possesses Twin Martial Souls."

"There's another one, although it's only a single ring, it's Millennium Soul Ring, and the physical strength is comparable to Soul Elder."

She paused, then finally turned her head to look at the Martial Brother beside her, whose expression was cold and who remained silent throughout.

Her tone carried a hint of approval. "Martial Brother, I have to admit, the children you found are all very talented and have a promising future."

But then she changed the subject, her gaze returning to the somewhat slender figures on the arena below.

"But, based on these alone..."

"You want to defeat this Shrek Team I brought... not yet!"

Shen Yi felt that Ye Xinglan, Yu Tianlong, and the other students weren't taking this competition seriously enough.

But what about herself?

Even if she took it seriously and personally analyzed her opponent's characteristics, deep down, the ingrained sense of superiority and confidence stemming from her Shrek identity was, in a way, another form of "contempt."

Wu Changkong's tone was no longer as cold as before, but instead carried a rare hint of warmth.

"Even you think so. It seems the academy is still the same as before while I was away."

After saying that, he turned around and looked solemnly at his junior sister.

"Shen Yi, I hope you won't hate me after today!"

Seeing her usually aloof Martial Brother speak so gently, she suddenly felt a sense of unease.
