At the Starlight Grand Hotel, in the conference room assigned to Shrek Academy.
The Shrek Academy Team's Main Team and reserve members had all arrived.
Wang Yan sat at the head of the table with a very peculiar expression. One moment he looked solemn, the next relaxed, and at times even a little excited.

After three days, the elimination round had finally ended. Every team was reviewing, analyzing, and studying the matches, as well as preparing its arrangements for the battles ahead.
Shrek Academy was naturally no exception. As soon as Huo Xingling and the others recovered, he immediately gathered everyone for this meeting.

He had already drawn up a rough list of the favorites to win this tournament: the Holy Light Team, the Undead Holy Magic Cult team, the Star Luo Royal Soul Engineer
