Since arriving in Star Luo City, Xuanzi's mental state had undergone several changes. Now, he was eager for Huo Yuhao, Gu Yue Na, Wang Dong, and Di Qiu'er to become members of Shrek Academy.
The talent these youngsters possessed had completely surpassed Xuanzi's imagination.
If they were left unchecked, once they fully matured, the Sun Moon Empire would truly possess the strength to sweep across the entire Douluo Continent.
Shrek Academy's history had seen a few individuals with ultimate Martial Souls, and those few were all ultimately the top-tier powerhouses who dominated the continent.
Even among Ultimate Douluos, those with ultimate Martial Souls could easily defeat opponents of the same level.
Allowing these monster-level geniuses to remain at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy would cause immeasurable damage to the entire continent in the future.
But if they joined Shrek Academy and were tempered by Shrek's glory and ideals, it would undoubtedly be a wonderful thing for the continent!
If that guy followed my instructions, rushing to the academy at full speed without regard for the cost, and with the assistance of a flying Soul Tool, he should have already arrived at the academy by now and reported what happened here to Old Mu, right?
At Old Mu's speed, perhaps the finals will be just ending when he arrives in Star Luo City. This way, I can give Old Mu and these disciples a surprise.
Winning this Soul Master Tournament and successfully guarding Shrek Academy's ten-thousand-year glory, while also capturing all these geniuses from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy! This is truly wonderful!
Thinking about how he was using this method to compensate for the deaths of the regular team members in the Death God Envoy incident, Xuanzi felt a tickle in his throat again, and he took off the wine gourd tied to his waist and took several big gulps.
Finding so many geniuses for Shrek Academy, and rewarding himself with a drink, this was very reasonable and logical, right?
As Huo Yuhao and a group of beautiful girls walked off the arena, the tournament host announced that there would be a rest day tomorrow, and the finals of this Soul Master Tournament would officially begin.
This ignited the enthusiasm of the audience, who wished they could somehow fast-forward to the finals right now.
Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy versus Shrek Academy, this has almost become a battle that is staged in the finals of every Soul Master Tournament.
However, this time, the situation has undergone a dramatic change compared to the past.
The number of people supporting Shrek Academy was actually very few, and countless people hoped that the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy would defeat Shrek and win the final championship.
The reason for this situation, besides the fact that the beautiful girls from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy were simply too captivating, was largely due to Shrek Academy's actions, which had tarnished their image in the eyes of the Star Luo Empire's public.
After returning to the hotel, Jing Hongchen looked at Huo Yuhao with a smile, teasing him.
"Yuhao, do you know what Xuanzi was looking at you all like?"
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly.
"Prey?"
Jing Hongchen nodded heavily, unable to help but burst into laughter.
"Exactly! In that guy's eyes, geniuses like you, possessing talents beyond anyone's imagination, are just like prey! Just as you said, those guys from Shrek Academy are already thinking about poaching."
Previously, it was the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy that was envious of the students from Shrek Academy who possessed extremely high talent in soul mastery. Now, however, the roles had been reversed.
It was Shrek Academy's turn to try and steal their people.
It's just a pity that Xuanzi had no idea what they would be facing in the finals!
Kong Deming walked over and said slowly, "Don't relax too much. Hasn't Xuanzi already sent someone to Shrek Academy to report what happened here to Old Mu? No matter what, Old Mu is a Level 99 Ultimate Douluo, and he's not so easy to deal with."
Jing Hongchen waved his hand dismissively.
"Old Kong, haven't you already broken through Level 95 and become a Super Douluo? With your soul engineering skills, what does it matter even if Old Mu comes? At most, it's just one more person to witness Shrek's disgrace."
Yes, after absorbing that piece of Life Gold, Kong Deming finally broke through the bottleneck that had held him back for years and successfully became the Sun Moon Empire's first Super Douluo Level 9 Soul Engineer.
It's no exaggeration to say that the destructive power a Super Douluo Level 9 Soul Engineer can unleash is simply incomparable to that of an Ultimate Douluo!
However, seeing Jing Hongchen looking a little too pleased with himself, Huo Yuhao coughed lightly.
"Director Jing, don't get carried away. Have you forgotten how those people from Shrek Academy almost got wiped out when facing a Death God Envoy who was only a Soul King?"
Xiao Hongchen also nodded in agreement.
"That's right! Grandpa, don't be like that old geezer Xuanzi."
Jing Hongchen's smile stiffened. Feeling the gazes of everyone present, he knew that his mental state had probably gone wrong. He quickly defended himself.
"Alright, I'm a bit excited thinking about how Shrek Academy will soon be disgraced. But you can all rest assured, I won't be as useless as Xuanzi!"
Xiao Hongchen put on a show of filial piety.
"That's for the best, but I think we should still be vigilant, lest you do something irrational one day."
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao and Kong Deming couldn't help but laugh.
Jing Hongchen, without hesitation, slapped Xiao Hongchen on the back of the head, glaring at his grandson.
"Don't waste my time! If your performance isn't up to par in the finals, you'll find out what happens!"
Xiao Hongchen rubbed his head and pouted, not caring at all.
"With Shrek's current lineup, they think they can cause us trouble? I don't even need anyone else to do anything. Just let me and Yuhao team up, and we can defeat them easily!"
"Yuhao's mental detection and sharing, combined with my soul-guided artillery, will definitely make them feel what despair is like!"
After a day of rest, the finals officially arrived. The people who wanted to watch this final surrounded the entire Star Luo City, making it impossible to get through.
When the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy and Shrek Academy entered the arena, the audience showed completely different attitudes towards the two sides.
The cheers and shouts that should have belonged to Shrek were all directed towards the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy.
Seeing this scene, Xuanzi's face became very ugly, and he coldly said to Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng.
"Let me say it one last time, no matter the cost, we must defeat the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy and win the final championship! Let everyone know that their cheers and applause should belong to our Shrek Academy!"
"Yes! Xuanzi!"
The participating members of Shrek didn't hesitate at all, immediately agreeing.
However, what they didn't notice was that Huo Yuhao, seeing them all present, thought of Leng Qiu Yu coming to the competition venue. The plan to destroy Shrek had finally begun, and his mood immediately became very pleasant.
