The Battle Begins!
"Bang!"
The room door closed, A Ruheng appeared outside, a hint of emotion in his eyes.
"I never imagined that my junior brother's cultivation level is already at the peak of level thirty-eight, and he's about to break through to the Soul Ancestor. As his Grandmaster, I need to hurry up too."
He muttered to himself, a determined glint in A Ruheng's eyes.
"Let's continue with a steady approach today and see what the effect is of using Five-Needle Potion together."
With unwavering faith, A Ruheng strode briskly toward his room.
"Boss, tomorrow's all up to you. I'm going to win without lifting a finger." Inside the room, Na'er waved her fist at Jiang Xiu, then prepared to get up and leave.
Before the competition, they had agreed that Jiang Xiu would make fewer moves before the finals, but during the finals, Jiang Xiu would have to take on the entire Shrek Academy alone.
Na'er had already vaguely guessed Jiang Xiu's idea, which was to use the news of defeating Shrek Academy to announce the resurgence of the Body Sect.
Looking at the young man before her, who had shouldered so much at such a young age, Na'er couldn't help but sigh. All she could do was support Jiang Xiu from behind.
Of course, there's also the need to guard against Gu Yue, that home-stealing thief.
"Don't worry, I've got everything covered."
Jiang Xiu smiled faintly, his tone full of determination.
"Good night." Na'er smiled, took out an Ju Zi and placed it on the table, gently opened the door and walked out.
After the two left, Jiang Xiu slightly raised his hand and summoned the Monarch Domain. The towering figure of the Ant Emperor appeared, holding two giant metal hammers in his hands, ready to strike.
"You can just forge it in the Forging Room," Jiang Xiu instructed Emperor Ant, pointing to the Forging Room.
"Yes, my the Master." Upon hearing this, the Ant Emperor immediately headed towards the Forging Room with great interest.
Watching the Ant Emperor's retreating figure, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Jiang Xiu's eyes. It was indeed a good choice to have the Ant Emperor learn forging.
With his understanding of Spirit Forging, the Ant Emperor was able to forge Half-Step Spirit Forging metal in just three days. After further practice, he could forge Spirit-Forged Metal within a week.
Judging from this, the Ant Emperor's forging talent is quite remarkable.
In the future, he will definitely need to create even more Battle Armor, so the Ant Emperor is definitely a good helper.
Jiang Xiu sensed that the Ant Emperor had already swung its hammer. After chuckling, he stopped paying attention and instead clenched his fist slightly, a wisp of transparent Faith Power flickering in his palm.
"Tomorrow, it will be your turn to shine..."
The next day.
Skysea Alliance.
The stadium was already packed with spectators, roughly estimated to be in the tens of thousands, far exceeding any previous match of the Skysea Alliance. A group of reporters, each holding a soul-guided camera, surrounded the edge of the stadium.
Today is the final team final of the Skysea Alliance, and the two teams facing off are Shrek Academy, the number one academy on the continent, and the Silver Dragon Team, which is considered a dark horse.
Either of these two teams would be a hot topic, let alone the fact that they ended up facing each other in the end.
"Chang Kong, which of these two teams do you think will win?" Shen Yi, dressed in a green outfit, asked Wu Changkong beside him from the stands.
Wu Changkong's eyes flashed, and he said calmly, "Don't you already have a decision in mind? Besides, don't you trust the students you've trained?"
"Haha, your tone of voice hasn't changed at all." Shen Yi chuckled, naturally confident in her Shrek Academy team.
Shen Yi looked at Wu Changkong beside her, a strange glint in her beautiful eyes, and tentatively asked, "Changkong, are you still not planning to go back to see your teacher?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong's icy blue eyes revealed a hint of reminiscence and pain.
Just when Shen Yi thought he had returned empty-handed again, he heard Wu Changkong's voice.
"I will go back, but not in such a sorry state. I want to bring new Core Flame to the Shrek Academy, as a way of repaying my teacher's kindness."
"Huh? Is that true?!" Upon hearing this, Shen Yi's pretty face instantly lit up with surprise, and she pressed on, "Are you planning to take your students to participate in the Shrek Academy's entrance exam three years from now?"
Shrek Academy conducts an entrance examination every three years. The criteria for the examination are being under fifteen years old and having a cultivation level of twenty or above. This year's enrollment for the Shrek Academy has ended, and those who wish to the Shrek Academy will have to wait three years.
Shen Yi had already met Wu Changkong's students. Although they had lost in the team competition, each of them had their own unique strengths and were by no means lacking in talent.
"Hmm." Wu Changkong nodded slightly.
"This is wonderful..." Shen Yi smiled broadly. He was about to ask something else when he heard the referee's voice in the arena. The players from both teams had already taken to the field. Shen Yi had to stop talking and turn his attention to the arena.
On the field, Jiang Xiu and Na'er stood on one side of the field, while Shrek Academy students sized each other up.
Looking at the composed Jiang Xiu and the relaxed Na'er, Yu Yuanheng, who was in the lead, frowned. In the Skysea Alliance Grand Competition, which team would not be extremely nervous when they encountered their Shrek Academy Team? Yet these two were so calm.
Then Yu Yuanheng stepped forward and said in a cold tone:
"Although the two of you managed to fight your way up, your journey ends here, because the championship belongs to the Shrek Academy, and will only belong to the Shrek Academy."
When Yu Yuanheng said this, he even added a trace of Soul Power. The surrounding Amplifying Soul Tool instantly spread his words, and everyone in the arena could hear him clearly.
"Shrek! Shrek! Shrek!"
In an instant, countless shouts erupted from the audience, rising and falling like a tidal wave, the layers of sound exploding like a powder keg.
Hearing the excited cheers around them, the Shrek Academy students couldn't help but show a hint of pride on their faces, Yu Yuanheng, who was in the lead, even had a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
Their Shrek Academy predecessors once said that Soul Master who doesn't dare to cause trouble is not a good Soul Master, and they have that strength.
However, when Yu Yuanheng looked at Jiang Xiu and Na'er again, he didn't see the expressions he expected. Jiang Xiu's expression remained calm, while Na'er's beautiful eyes held a hint of helplessness and... disdain...
They dare to look down on us?!
A surge of anger immediately rose in Yu Yuanheng.
"Boys, get ready! The match begins!"
Just then, the referee, seeing that the atmosphere had been building up, immediately announced the start of the match.
The Skysea Alliance organizes this competition to inspire young Soul Master. Now that the Shrek Academy Team already showing signs of tension, if they don't start the competition soon, when will they?
"Sing!"
As the referee finished speaking, a deep dragon roar instantly rang out. Yu Yuanheng, the leader, instantly Possession the Thunder Lightning Overlord Dragon Martial Soul, and his body was immediately covered with thick dragon scales. The surrounding area was filled with flashing blue lightning, and the turbulent lightning element was jumping wildly.
Two yellow, one purple, and one black—four Soul Ring, far exceeding the optimal ratio, instantly rose beneath his feet.
The other Shrek Academy students also summoned their Martial Soul, eyeing Jiang Xiu and Na'er menacingly.
"I'm going down, good luck, boss." Just as the tension was about to escalate, Na'er's beautiful eyes flashed, she called out to Jiang Xiu, and then jumped off the stage.
This unexpected action immediately drew gasps from the entire audience.
"Furious!"
Yu Yuanheng was also slightly taken aback, then his face flushed red, a feeling of being mocked welled up in his heart, and he shouted angrily.
One person dared to face all seven of them; this was an absolute mockery for the Shrek Academy!
On the vast arena, Jiang Xiu stood tall and straight, looking at the seven members of the Shrek Academy from afar.
"Let me see how long your proud Shrek Glory can last."
Jiang Xiu raised his eyes to look at the group, his purple eyes gradually turning blood red. Behind him, a tall figure, exuding the majesty of a monarch, slowly materialized, and a chilling darkness instantly erupted!
