A few days later, Fang Yang and the others finally completed the nine assessment tasks.
They only needed to pass the final assessment to successfully complete this final exam and return to Shrek Academy.
"Captain, where are we going for the last stop?" Zhang Yangzi asked eagerly, expectation in his eyes.
Hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to Fang Yang, waiting for his answer.
"Hmm... let me think." Fang Yang pondered for a moment, just about to speak.
Just then, Wu Zhangkong, who had been standing quietly aside, suddenly spoke, his voice cold.
"I just received a notice from the academy. The location for this final assessment is set at—Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy."
"What?!"
Xie Xie cried out in shock, his face filled with disbelief.
Not just him, everyone showed surprised expressions.
"Um... if we go to Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy, won't we really get beaten up?" Tang Wulin asked weakly, obvious worry in his tone.
"Probably not..."
Xie Xie spoke somewhat hesitantly, clearly not too sure himself.
Fang Yang's expression was calm, he only lightly added: "Don't worry, it's a guaranteed beating."
"Fang Yang."
Wu Zhangkong glanced at him, a hint of reminder in his tone.
If Xie Xie or Tang Wulin had said this, they would have been scolded long ago, but Fang Yang was different.
"Okay, Teacher Wu."
Fang Yang nodded slightly, saying no more.
Although he didn't want to represent Shrek Academy to go to Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy for a match. But thinking again, Shrek Academy would eventually become his own in the future, so he didn't oppose it anymore.
Ten thousand years ago, the Sun Moon Continent and Douluo Continent collided and merged, the relationship between the two continents was once incompatible like water and fire.
Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy and Shrek Academy represented the peak academies of their respective continents.
They clashed many times in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, fighting until heads broke and blood flowed, with many competitions resulting in heavy casualties, resentment had accumulated for a long time.
Later, Spirit Ice Douluo Huo Yuhao even caused an earth-shattering explosion in Mingdu; no one knows how many innocent civilians lost their lives.
Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy was nearly destroyed, this disaster left an indelible pain in the hearts of the Sun Moon Empire people.
From then on, whether it was the Sun Moon Empire or Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy, they harbored deep hatred towards Shrek Academy.
To this day, Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy was still one of the forces that extremely hated Shrek Academy openly.
"You represent Shrek Academy. In this battle, only victory is allowed, no defeat."
Wu Zhangkong's gaze swept over everyone, voice cold, "I will go with you as the team leader teacher."
"If you win, your assessment score is full marks. If you lose, your scores will all be failing."
Tang Wulin couldn't help but speak: "Teacher Wu, isn't this too..."
Wu Zhangkong looked at him lightly, Tang Wulin immediately silenced, not daring to continue.
...
Mingdu!
The most modern city on the Douluo Continent, Mingdu is situated firmly in the west of the continent, and is the core of the entire west.
Wu Zhangkong led everyone swiftly through Mingdu, heading towards Sun Moon Imperial Soul Tool Academy.
Mingdu's architectural style was very different from Shrek City.
Shrek City was relatively more humanistic, a perfect combination of classical and modern, while Mingdu was a pure high-tech steel forest.
Tall buildings stood next to each other, each had its own unique design, many building shapes were weird and strange, exceptionally eye-catching.
In terms of city area, Mingdu might not be as vast as Shrek City, but speaking of building density and population, it was definitely far exceeding Shrek City.
Two hours later.
After traveling through the huge Mingdu for a long time, everyone arrived at a grand, uniquely shaped giant cylindrical metal building.
There were several huge characters on top of the building, Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy.
They have arrived at the destination!
Just then, Xie Xie suddenly spoke in surprise: "Eh? Teacher Shen? Why are you guys here?"
Hearing this, everyone's gaze looked over.
Only to see not far away, it was the genius team led by Shen Yi.
Under her arrangement, Ye Xinglan and Xu Lizhi had joined this team.
Shen Yi was walking over with Wu Siduo, Zheng Yiran, and others.
They all looked dejected, emotions obviously low, many people still had some traces of battle on their bodies.
"Senior Brother, sorry..."
Shen Yi walked to Wu Zhangkong's front, voice low, "We... lost."
"It's nothing."
Wu Zhangkong's voice was calm, no ripple could be heard, "Leave it to us."
His gaze swept over the Class Zero everyone behind him, carrying a kind of unquestionable trust.
"Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy's team leader is very strong,"
Luo Guixing walked over to add, face very solemn, "His martial soul is... Holy Light Dragon."
"Holy Light Dragon?!" Xie Xie was somewhat surprised.
Among dragon-type martial souls, Holy Light Dragon was already a powerful existence located at the top tier.
"Then you losing was not unjustified."
Fang Yang lightly evaluated, tone calmly stating facts.
He knew clearly in his heart, in the original work Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy team leader not only had Holy Light Dragon martial soul, the team also possessed Martial Soul Fusion Skill as a trump card.
Even if the genius team could temporarily suppress Holy Light Dragon, it was hard to resist the opponent's final killer move.
Luo Guixing's lips moved, finally did not refute. Only helplessly sighed, indeed they lost without suspense...
On the other side, Xie Xie had already run to Zheng Yiran who was low in emotions.
He said some unknown comforting words, and it actually made the originally frowning Zheng Yiran smile again, cheering up quite a bit.
Ye Xinglan also walked over, her gaze fell on Fang Yang, "I believe, you guys will definitely win."
Fang Yang met her gaze, nodded slightly, tone plain but containing strong confidence: "Don't worry, we won't lose."
Afterwards, Wu Zhangkong looked at Class Zero team all members, voice cold: "Just now, the team led by Teacher Shen has already been defeated. Now, it's our turn."
"Remember, you represent the glory of Shrek Academy."
"Yes!"
Everyone answered in unison.
Immediately following, in everyone's surprised gaze, Wu Zhangkong calmly took out a soul tool amplifier.
He faced Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy that grand metal building, voice transmitted through soul tool amplifier spread across the plaza.
"Students of Sun Moon Imperial Soul Master Academy listen up, we come from Shrek Academy."
"This time, our purpose is to let you witness with your own eyes, who is the continent's true peak!"
"Recognize clearly between you and the strongest academy, that insurmountable gap!"
This sudden, extremely provocative declaration, made everyone from the Class Zero team secretly click their tongues.
"Damn! Teacher Wu, this is too ruthless!" Xie Xie lowered voice, face however carrying excitement.
Even Fang Yang's mouth corner twitched slightly.
On the other side, Luo Guixing looking at this familiar scene, expression complexly looked at Shen Yi: "Teacher Shen, this..."
Shen Yi slightly awkwardly coughed once, explaining: "This is... our Shrek Academy tradition that has been passed down for a long time."
"Considered... striking first to gain the advantage."
Genius team members hearing this, collectively fell into silence.
