Chapter 76 Tang Wulin: He's a food-type Soul Master? How could he be hungry!
Wu Changkong remained silent for a moment, a complex emotion appearing on his cold face, which ultimately turned into a barely audible sigh.
He spoke slowly, his voice deep: "Shrek Academy has a history of 20,000 years, with profound heritage and an outstanding reputation, gathering the continent's top geniuses and resources."
"For a long time, the college has been showered with praise and honors, and over time... this has indeed unconsciously fostered an arrogant and condescending attitude among some teachers and students."
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the group of students in front of him, whose eyes still held confusion and disappointment, and added, "However, such people are ultimately only a minority."
"The reason why Shrek has been able to continue to this day is due to the hard work, protection and sacrifice of countless predecessors, as well as the core spirit of always pursuing excellence and never giving up."
"Don't condemn an entire place because of the words and actions of a few individuals."
Upon hearing this, Xie Xie pursed his lips and muttered under his breath, "We're really 'lucky' today, running into just this small group of people."
Tang Wulin's expression was still somewhat unpleasant, and his tone carried a lingering disappointment: "Teacher, I understand what you mean."
"But having experienced it firsthand, I really didn't expect that the legendary Shrek Academy would have such students and... such an attitude."
Wu Changkong did not offer any further explanation, after all, he had already left Shrek Academy.
Even if he were still at Shrek Academy, with his current cultivation level and status, it would probably be difficult for him to change the bad habits that have already infiltrated the academy.
Just then, a rousing broadcast rang out in the stadium, drowning out all the whispers and instantly drawing everyone's attention back to the center of the field.
"Distinguished guests, esteemed contestants!"
"Next, we will begin a special segment of the opening ceremony of this Tianhai Alliance Tournament."
"The reigning champions of the Tianhai Alliance Youth Team Tournament will face off against the Shrek Academy Junior Elite Team, who have been specially invited! Players, please enter the arena!"
Accompanied by commentary and enthusiastic applause, the players from both sides entered the center of the field through different entrances.
The previous champion team of the Tianhai Alliance consisted of seven young men in their twenties, all with upright postures and calm demeanor.
The seven students sent by Shrek Academy were all dressed in dark green sportswear. The oldest of them looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, with still somewhat immature faces, but they exuded an unusual composure and sharpness as they walked.
Among them were Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi, who had just caused the argument!
The two of them looked exceptionally young in the group, appearing to be no more than eleven or twelve years old.
The huge age and status gap made this exhibition match dramatic from the very beginning.
All the spectators couldn't help but focus their attention on the young, green team in the arena.
As soon as the starting signal sounded, both teams released their martial spirits almost simultaneously, and the spirit rings lit up one after another.
Xie Xie's gaze immediately locked onto Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan.
When they saw that there were only two yellow hundred-year soul rings appearing under their feet, they couldn't help but curl their lips.
He said with a hint of disdain, "Tch, I thought the Shrek Academy students would be really that powerful, but they're just two two-ring Soul Masters."
The other students from Class Zero around them also showed similar expressions to varying degrees.
After all, in their Class Zero, where the average age is ten, Xie Xie and Gu Yue are both at the two-ring level, while Huo Yuhao has even reached the astonishing three-ring Soul Master realm.
In their view, judging solely from the number of spirit rings and cultivation level, Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi indeed had no right to show off or be arrogant in front of them.
Wu Changkong's icy voice rang in their ears: "Don't just focus on the number of spirit rings. Since Shrek Academy dared to send the two of them to participate in this exhibition match, it means that the two of them must have extraordinary abilities."
On the arena, the first to act on Shrek Academy's side was none other than the chubby Xu Lizhi.
Suddenly, the first yellow spirit ring beneath his feet shone brightly, and his hands surged with spirit power. He quickly threw white objects to each of his teammates!
His teammates were clearly used to this; they smoothly took the food, didn't even look at it, and stuffed it directly into their mouths.
"So... what did that chubby kid throw out?"
Xu Xiaoyan stared wide-eyed with curiosity, but because she was far away and the movements had been too fast, she couldn't see it very clearly.
"It's a steamed bun."
Huo Yuhao gave an affirmative answer; under his spiritual eyes, he could see it clearly!
"Steamed buns? He... he's actually a food-type Soul Master?!"
Tang Wulin couldn't help but gasp softly.
His surprise stemmed not only from the fact that Xu Lizhi was an extremely rare food-type Soul Master.
It was also because he was a food-type Soul Master who had pitifully cried out "I'm hungry" in the crowd!
His own martial soul could clearly create food that could quickly replenish his physical strength and soul power to fill his stomach anytime, anywhere!
His own martial soul could clearly create food that could quickly replenish his physical strength and soul power to fill his stomach anytime, anywhere!
Thinking of this, Tang Wulin seemed to hear Huo Yuhao's words from before again.
In that instant, Tang Wulin felt a sudden chill run down his spine.
He suddenly realized that he... had been far too trusting of others!
After Xu Lizhi finished throwing his "baozi" (steamed bun), another composed girl from the Shrek team immediately followed suit.
Three soul rings rose beneath her feet, and she held up a magnificent, seven-story glazed pagoda in her hands.
It was once the number one auxiliary weapon spirit on the continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!
With the combined support of Xu Lizhi, a food-type Soul Master, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the overall strength of Shrek Academy's youth team was instantly boosted by 50%!
Its already sharp and imposing aura was now like a divine sword drawn from its sheath, its sharpness fully revealed!
What followed was a breathtaking, textbook-perfect blitzkrieg!
Shrek Team's attack unfolded like a tidal wave, with strong attacks, agile attacks, and control... each performing their duties and cooperating perfectly.
In contrast, the champion team of the Tianhai Alliance, despite having superior individual skills, appeared flustered and full of flaws in the face of such a near-defeat-level teamwork and tactical execution.
In just a few breaths, the situation on the field became clear.
As the last Tianhai Alliance player was knocked out of the field, the referee blew his whistle!
Shrek Academy wins!
After a brief silence, the entire Tianhai Stadium erupted in thunderous cheers and applause!
"Shrek! Shrek!..."
The shouts were deafening and echoed through the sky.
This exhibition match, with its significant age gap, ended in a clean and decisive victory for the Shrek Academy youth team, once again demonstrating the unfathomable depth and strength of this legendary academy.
Huo Yuhao withdrew his gaze from the arena, his mind still replaying Ye Xinglan's sharp and swift sword shadow.
He had to admit that, setting aside his unpleasant personality, Ye Xinglan was indeed one of the best among his peers in terms of swordsmanship and combat awareness, truly deserving of being an elite trained by Shrek Academy.
However, no matter how good one's swordsmanship or how strong one's strength is, it should never be a reason for arrogance.
He turned his gaze to Wu Changkong beside him and asked, "Teacher, you and the teacher leading the team from Shrek Academy... seem to be acquainted?"
He had previously astutely realized that the relationship between Wu Changkong and Shen Yi was far more than just that of two people from Shrek Academy.
Upon hearing this, Wu Changkong looked at Huo Yuhao with his icy blue eyes, but did not hide anything, simply nodding and replying, "Yes, Shen Yi... is my junior sister."
Huo Yuhao then asked, "Could the teacher talk to her and let us have a match with the Shrek Academy students?"
