The tournament soon officially began.
The first match was none other than a showdown between Shrek Academy and an advanced soul master academy from the Dou Ling Empire.
At the sight, Zhang Lexuan's eyes narrowed slightly, her gaze settling on Shrek Academy's competitors. In front of such a large crowd, however, she showed no trace of hatred. She merely watched Shrek Academy's performance with her usual expression.
Although Shrek Academy was missing Zhang Lexuan, who should originally have been its Soul Emperor-level captain this year, its team was still well balanced. An obscure little academy like this was nowhere near qualified to challenge it. Before long, Shrek Academy won the match.
Ye An turned his gaze toward Zhang Lexuan, raised an eyebrow, and asked softly, "Feeling any pressure? About facing Shrek Academy alone, I mean."
Zhang Lexuan gently shook her head.
She now had two full Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Rings, two Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones, and an external soul bone. Even her martial soul had transformed and evolved into Star-Moon, possessing the ultimate light attribute. If she still lacked the confidence to face Shrek Academy alone with all that... then there was no point in even thinking about taking revenge on Shrek Academy.
To Ye An's surprise, the team appearing immediately after Shrek Academy was Maple Leaf Advanced Soul Master Academy. Its opponent was likewise an advanced soul master academy from the Heaven Dou Empire.
However, this advanced soul master academy was even weaker than the opponent Shrek Academy had faced.
Seeing this, Ye An tilted his head and pointed at Long Aotian, Ye Guyi, and Vina.
Besides those three, the Body Sect actually had another disciple within the eligible age range-the boy with the white-eyed martial soul whom Ye An had previously spirited away from the Sun Moon Empire.
