The next morning, he led the Star Luo First Team into the quarterfinal match against Shrek Academy, where Dai Mubai stood at the front of Shrek’s lineup.

• Dai Weisi calculated that his private assets could not cover Spirit Hall’s one-million-coin demand within three days, so he proposed taking the money directly from the treasury branch in Spirit City.
