The Competition Begins, Shrek's Ambitions Exposed

"How could this happen? Why did this happen?"

Wang Yan began to doubt his life, wondering if the other person was really Zhang Lexuan and Ling Luochеn.

He had heard that Zhang Lexuan, as the Eldest Senior Sister of the Inner Court, was always gentle and kind, and treated everyone in Shrek like a spring breeze, making people unconsciously feel good about her.

Ling Luochеn, this genius girl, is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. She may appear Bingbing, but she is actually very kind.

But now they have personally stated that they are no longer Shrek members and have appeared in the team of Shrek's mortal enemy, the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy. How can anyone accept this?

Bei Bei wanted to continue pursuing Zhang Lexuan, but after hearing Huo Yuhao's words, her legs felt like they were filled with lead, and she couldn't move them at all.

Thinking that he hadn't seen Tang Ya for more than half a year, the last time he heard news of her was when she used the methods of Evil Soul Master to destroy the Iron Blood Sect, which caused quite a stir.

'Xiaoya, where are you right now? Haven't you ever thought of coming back to find me?'

With sadness in her eyes, Bei Bei could no longer care about Zhang Lexuan and Ling Luochеn.

After a long silence, Wang Yan finally took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

"This is something we can't change. We can only wait for Xuan Zi to return and let him decide what to do! What we should do now is to make sure we don't lose the match before Xuan Zi and the Inner Court students arrive!"

"Let's go, let's participate in the Soul Master Competition!"

As Wang Yan and Zhou Yi led the reserve team members to the competition venue, Dai Huabin's mind kept flashing back to the stunning faces of Gu Yuena, Meng Hongchen, Wang Dong'er, and Di Qiu'er. His heart gradually became twisted, and he began to exude a murderous aura.

Although the contact time was short, Dai Huabin could keenly sense that those beautiful girls all had special relationships with Huo Yuhao. What qualifications did a mere trash like him, who only had one spirit ring a year ago and whose First Soul Ring was just a ten-year-old Wind Baboon, have to occupy so many women?

Beautiful women belong to the capable!

Even though his kidneys were removed and he lost his most indispensable ability as a man, Xuan Zi said that he would do everything in his power to help him find the Immortal Herb, and he will definitely be able to recover!

By then, whether it's his fiancée Zhu Lu or all the beautiful girls surrounding Huo Yuhao, they should all belong to him, Dai Huabin!

Ever since his kidneys were ripped out, Dai Huabin's mind has been rapidly becoming twisted. Especially seeing so many beautiful girls while he himself lacks even the most basic male ability, Dai Huabin is filled with jealousy and hatred towards Huo Yuhao. He has already decided that when he encounters the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineer Academy in the competition, he must kill Huo Yuhao with his own hands!

He wanted those beautiful girls to see with their own eyes that he was stronger than Huo Yuhao and more deserving of them!

Not to mention Dai Huabin, besides Bei Bei who was completely devoted to Tang Ya, even Xu Sanshi and He Caitou couldn't help but feel a strong sense of envy and jealousy towards Huo Yuhao.

Compared to Gu Yuena, Snow Empress, and others, Xu Sanshi suddenly felt that Jiang Nannan wasn't so appealing.

He Caitou, however, was filled with resentment.

If it weren't for the fact that the current Sun Moon Emperor rebelled back then, his father was still the emperor, and he himself was still the Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire, then all these women should have been his!

At this moment, beneath He Caitou's honest and simple exterior, he was filled with jealousy and couldn't wait to kill Huo Yuhao and the others in the Soul Master Competition.

Anyway, it was his Shimu, Zhou Yi, who gave the order, and Shrek has a tradition of protecting its own. Even if he really killed the other party, the higher-ups at Shrek Academy would still protect him. There was no need to worry about the Sun Moon Empire causing trouble for him.

What's there to hesitate about? Just do it!

After they all entered, the other colleges and the audience had already arrived. The group, who had expected to be cheered, found that the people around them were looking at them strangely.

Before they could express their doubts, they heard the discussions among the surrounding audience and academy members.

"It seems that the news was true. At the age of these Shrek students, they really are in the reserve team!"

"Could it be that their main team members were almost wiped out by a mere Evil Soul Master at the Soul King level, just like the rumors say?"

"It shouldn't be that bad. Isn't Shrek Academy full of geniuses? Even if the Evil Soul Master's methods are strange, as long as Shrek's geniuses take action, they can definitely take care of the opponent with ease!"

"And what about Shi Xiaozi? You yourself are training Evil Soul Master, yet you're still speaking up for Shrek Academy?"

"That's right, that's right! I heard it from my aunt's son's brother's wife. That Tang Sect Master is just a scapegoat pushed out by the Shrek Academy! The real Evil Soul Master is someone else!"

"Hiss! Is that so? So it's true that Shrek Academy was secretly training Evil Soul Master?"

"."

The murmurs grew louder and louder, making it impossible for the Shrek students not to hear them.

This made their faces grow increasingly grim, and their mood became extremely heavy.

Fortunately, Emperor Xu Jiawei of Star Luo Emperor had arrived, bringing his empress and civil and military officials to the front of the city wall, surveying his people with a gentle yet dignified gaze.

"The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament is the most important event in the Soul Master World of the Douluo Continent. I am very pleased that this year it is being held in our Star Luo Empire. Here, on behalf of the Star Luo Empire, I welcome the representatives from various academies, led by the Shrek Academy, who have come from afar. I hope that you will show your true colors in the competition over the next month."

Xu Jiawei smiled and nodded at the location of the Shrek Academy teachers and students, appearing extremely amiable.

This also relieved Wang Yan a little. After today's competition, he would try to meet with Xu Jiawei. He had to stop the rumors from getting out of control. If left unchecked, they would definitely have an indelible and huge impact on Shrek Academy's reputation!

Under the watchful eyes of everyone present, Xu Jiawei spoke loudly.

"Alright, I hereby declare the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament officially open."

"Long live! Long live! Long live!" the people shouted in unison, their emotions stirred up almost instantly.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom..." The sound of cannons boomed from the city walls, continuing for one hundred and eight shots before stopping. Star Luo Plaza had become a sea of excitement and cheers.

Just as the Prime Minister of the Star Luo Empire began to announce the rules, Huo Yuhao's gaze swept over the Shrek Academy teachers He Caitou, who was sitting on the edge.

He could sense the malice from Dai Huabin, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou others. In addition, He Caitou had promised Zhou Yi that he would kill them in the competition. How could Huo Yuhao still be polite to them?

Without the slightest hesitation, Huo Yuhao began writing directly in his Diary.

[Speaking of which, those guys at Shrek are really ambitious! Not only did they use underhanded tactics to bind Zhang Lexuan, a genius with the inherited Martial Soul of the Sun Moon Royal Family, to Shrek, but they also took in Xu He, the former Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire, who uses the fake name He Caitou. He Caitou He Caitou possesses both a cigar and a sun Martial Soul, but because he dares not reveal his identity, he has never cultivated the Sun Martial Soul, thinking he's hiding it well. Little does he know, Mu En has already seen through everything!]

[Let's indulge in a bold conspiracy theory: If Shrek has the opportunity to defeat the Sun Moon Empire in the future, could they depose the current Sun Moon Emperor and, under the guise of righteousness, legitimately He Caitou the Sun Moon Empire? Then, could they appoint Zhang Lexuan, a genius with Moon Martial Soul, to succeed Kong Deming as the new Grand Elder of the Sun Moon Empire?]

[In this way, Shrek may appear to be just an academy, but in reality, it has already taken control of the most powerful nation on the continent!]

[To become the supreme ruler of the entire continent in the name of the academy—who could resist such an allure?]
