At this moment, the two teams slowly entered the arena under the gaze of the entire audience.
Representing the Tianhai Alliance was the champion team from the previous youth group, seven elite students from Tianhai Academy.
This year, they were all over twenty years old, so they could only participate in the adult group competition.
Each of them wore silver team uniforms, looking heroic and spirited.
Five men and two women, their movements were uniform and synchronized, showing they were well-trained powerhouses. Each person was full of Qi and Spirit, with a hint of excitement in their eyes.
On the other side, seven students from Shrek Academy entered wearing green tracksuits.
This team appeared to be only fourteen or fifteen years old, their youthful faces forming a stark contrast with their steady demeanor.
Xie Xie immediately recognized the two people walking at the back of the team.
"That Fatty and that girl, they're both from Shrek Academy?" Xie Xie couldn't help but exclaim in disbelief.
Tang Wulin nodded slightly: "It seems so."
"Their ages are similar, so why is there such a big difference?" Zhang Yangzi looked at the stage, his tone filled with unconcealed envy.
Wang Jinxi nodded silently, his gaze never leaving the arena.
Fang Yang, Gu Yue, and Xu Xiaoyan said nothing, just quietly watched the competition stage.
As soon as the Shrek Academy team appeared, they immediately became the focus of attention for the entire audience.
The fact that this team composed of youths required the Tianhai Alliance to send out elites in their twenties to fight them was itself shocking.
The members of the Tianhai Academy team all looked displeased.
As the previous champions, if they lost to this group of youths, where would their dignity be?
"The match begins!" The referee, an elderly man,'s booming voice echoed throughout the venue.
The seven members of Shrek Academy instantly sprang into action.
The first to act was the little Fatty, Xu Lizhi. Two yellow spirit rings lit up behind him, and several steaming buns flew from his hand.
The other six took the buns and swallowed them without hesitation.
Immediately after, the girl standing in the center of the team let out a soft cry, and spirit rings of two yellow and one purple rose behind her.
A Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, crystal clear throughout, appeared in her palm. The pagoda had seven layers, shimmering with colorful light.
"This is… the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!" Someone in the audience gasped.
The spirit rings behind the girl flickered, and the lower three layers of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda simultaneously radiated dazzling light.
Three brilliant streams of light shot out from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and landed on the tall young man at the very front of the team.
"Roar—!"
The young man let out a Dragon roar.
His body began to swell violently, his arm muscles bulged, fine Dragon scales appeared on his skin, and finally transformed into a pair of ferocious Dragon claws.
Four spirit rings, yellow, yellow, purple, and black, rose in sequence, and the last deep black spirit ring caused a commotion throughout the audience.
"Ten… Ten-thousand-year spirit ring!"
Seeing that ten-thousand-year-level spirit ring, many people in the audience couldn't help but exclaim.
The second spirit ring behind the young man shone brightly, and his figure vanished in an instant.
The next moment, a powerful blue light exploded in the center of the competition stage, and violent energy fluctuations swept in all directions.
At the same time, the other members of the Shrek team also made their moves.
Brilliant Spirit Abilities bloomed like fireworks, sweeping towards the members of the opposing Tianhai team.
The members of the Tianhai team hastily released their Spirits and Spirit Abilities to resist, but they were like a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot in the face of Shrek team's offensive.
They were just like a roadside, the blue electric light quickly engulfed them completely.
About a minute later, the match ended.
All seven people representing the Tianhai Alliance were lying on the competition stage, while the members of Shrek Academy who participated in the match still maintained their initial formation.
The youngest, Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan, stood at the very back of the team, with relaxed expressions on their faces.
The entire venue was silent. Everyone was too shocked by this overwhelming victory to speak.
Is this the legendary Shrek Academy? Such power is truly terrifying!
"The match result, Shrek Academy's invited team wins!" The referee's voice trembled slightly.
The young man leading the Shrek Academy team bowed slightly in salute, then led his teammates to turn and leave the stage.
This cross-age duel ended in such a crushing manner.
The elites of the Tianhai Alliance couldn't even last a minute; it was practically a one-sided massacre.
"This is… Shrek Academy?" Zhang Yangzi's voice was dry and tight.
Wang Jinxi remained silent, but his clenched fists revealed his inner turmoil.
"This is… too amazing," Xu Xiaoyan murmured.
"Their spirit power Ranks are similar to ours," Tang Wulin analyzed in a deep voice, "but their teamwork and instantaneous explosive power are truly astonishing."
Xie Xie also nodded repeatedly in agreement.
Fang Yang did not speak. The people from Shrek Academy were indeed strong, but in front of him, they were like a mayfly trying to shake a tree, overestimating themselves.
Wu Changkong suddenly asked: "Fang Yang, Gu Yue, what are your thoughts?"
"Nothing special," Gu Yue said faintly, her tone calm.
"At the end of the Dao of Spirit, who is at the peak? Once Fang Yang appears, the Dao becomes empty," Fang Yang slowly spoke, his voice flat.
Upon hearing this, everyone fell into an awkward silence.
If Gu Yue's words were arrogant, then Fang Yang's declaration was utterly presumptuous!
"This…"
Xu Xiaoyan's eyes widened, looking at the two in disbelief.
"Fang Yang… you." Xie Xie hesitated to speak.
Tang Wulin, however, nodded firmly: "Fang Yang, I believe you."
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi exchanged a complex look, quietly watching Fang Yang.
"Not bad."
Wu Changkong nodded slightly. He chose to condone Fang Yang and Gu Yue's bold statements.
If Tang Wulin or Xie Xie were so arrogant, he would certainly admonish them, but these two… they had the confidence to say such things.
"Teacher Wu, these Shrek students…" Tang Wulin asked curiously.
Wu Changkong's voice was cold: "Those were just students from Shrek Academy's Outer Court."
"Outer Court?"
Aside from Fang Yang and Gu Yue, Tang Wulin and the others showed surprise.
If the Outer Court was so powerful, how strong would the students of the Inner Court be?
"That's right, just the Outer Court. They are your strongest competitors in the future," Wu Changkong continued.
"Teacher Wu, are you not joking?" Xie Xie was incredulous.
Wu Changkong reminded them: "Have you forgotten the purpose of establishing Zero Class? It's to get into Shrek Academy!"
Xie Xie suddenly thought of something: "Teacher Wu, did you not even manage to enter the Inner Court?"
"I entered once, but failed to graduate." A hint of bitterness flashed in Wu Changkong's eyes.
"Long Bing, the love of his life!"
