"Eh? Which team is that?"
"Can't you read? It's written there clear as day!"
"Shrek... Academy? What an unfamiliar name."
"You must be from out of town. It used to be Blue Tyrant Academy, but it was renamed. This is what it's called now."
"Oh, then this academy probably isn't all that strong."
"..."
Tang San walked at the very front of the group, the pressure around him terrifyingly low. Though his expression was not exactly frightening, none of his former gentleness remained.
He paid no heed to the idle chatter around him and strode toward the Great Soul Arena.
Inside, he's in there!
Su Ge must have come here too!
A trace of crimson gradually stained his eyes, and his aura showed signs of spilling out.
Dai Mubai, following behind Tang San, noticed something wrong and slapped a hand onto his shoulder, pulling him back to his senses.
"Tang San, calm down. It's not time for you to make a move yet!"
Dai Mubai spoke in a low shout, refusing to let Tang San remain immersed in his own world.
Tang San's body trembled, immediately tensing before gradually relaxing again moments later.
"I'm fine. I just want to find him and ask him why. Why did things become like this?"
Tang San took a deep breath and regained his composure. Amid the clamor around them, he voiced the knot in his heart.
Besides Dai Mubai, those standing behind him included Ma Hongjun, Oscar, several substitutes, and two talented young members recruited from the Defense Clan and the Speed Clan.
One of those from the Speed Clan was Bai He's own granddaughter, Bai Chenxiang.
Including Tang San's group of four, Tai Long's group of four, and Bai Chenxiang's pair, the Shrek Team could be considered a team with three substitutes.
