Seeing this, Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi immediately got up from their seats and walked over.
Are you kidding? Someone's trying to poach them right in front of us, how could we just sit there?
"Hanyou."
"Tian'er."
The two walked to the sisters' sides respectively, their voices gentle.
Zhou Hanyou and Zhou Tian'er looked up at the sound, their initially cold gazes softening slightly upon seeing the newcomers.
"Mm."
Zhou Hanyou responded softly, her tone gentle.
Zhou Tian'er nodded slightly, a hint of a smile appearing on her face.
The scene of the four together appeared exceptionally harmonious.
Luo Guixing stood aside, looking at the默契 pair of couples, and immediately understood something.
The awkwardness on his face deepened a few points, and he could only retreat sheepishly.
Just as Luo Guixing turned to leave, Ye Xinglan walked towards him.
Luo Guixing's steps paused, a hint of anticipation flashing in his eyes.
"I..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ye Xinglan seemed not to have seen him.
She walked past him directly, not even sparing a glance, and finally stopped in front of Fang Yang.
Ye Xinglan's voice was clear and cold: "Fang Yang, long time no see."
"Mm, Xinglan."
Fang Yang responded gently, his gaze calmly fixed on the golden-haired girl.
Luo Guixing froze in place, his face burning, this was the third time today he had asked for trouble.
In the corner of the classroom, Xu Lizhi clenched his fists tightly, his eyes red, breathing heavily.
"No... Sister Xinglan..."
He roared in a low voice, but dared not step forward to stop her.
With Fang Yang's mental force, he could naturally sense Xu Lizhi's emotional fluctuations.
However, he didn't care about this mere food system Spirit Master; once he left Shrek Academy... "You are asking for death!"
Fang Yang looked at Ye Xinglan, his tone gentle: "Xinglan, you are..."
Upon hearing this, Ye Xinglan's fair cheeks flushed slightly.
She explained with a hint of embarrassment: "I was originally guaranteed admission to the Inner Court based on my talent, but because I didn't complete my One-Word Battle Armor within the specified time, I was sent back to the Outer Court."
"I see."
Fang Yang heard this and looked thoughtful.
After this period of effort, his One-Word Battle Armor was already completed.
Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan's Battle Armors were also nearing completion, while Tang Wulin and the others' were still being forged.
"Fang Yang, how have you been?" Ye Xinglan asked softly, her eyes filled with concern.
"Haha, I'm doing well." Fang Yang smiled, his tone relaxed.
He not only had Gu Yue by his side, but also Xu Xiaoyan, not to mention Na'er was still there.
"Mm."
Ye Xinglan nodded slightly.
She naturally knew that Fang Yang had many female confidantes, but as long as she could occupy a place in his heart, she would be content.
"Cough cough."
Just then, two light coughs came from the doorway.
Shen Yi and Wu Changkong had returned and re-entered the classroom.
Seeing this, Ye Xinglan immediately returned to her seat, and Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi also quickly took their places.
The atmosphere in the classroom immediately returned to its previous quiet state.
"Alright."
Wu Changkong's cold voice rang out, drawing everyone's attention.
"Next, Fang Yang's team will represent our class in a sparring exchange with Second Year Class One in a team battle."
As soon as these words were spoken, the classroom immediately erupted in an uproar.
Everyone looked at each other; although they all knew Fang Yang's team was powerful, directly appointing them to represent the class in battle still surprised many.
"Teacher Wu, I remember there was a class internal selection competition, wasn't there?" Luo Guixing suddenly spoke, a hint of doubt in his voice.
Everyone's gaze collectively turned to him, with surprise, confusion, and a hint of wanting to see the show.
"That's right."
Wu Changkong responded calmly, no emotion visible in his dark green eyes.
"Then why directly appoint Fang Yang's team to represent our class in battle?" Luo Guixing pressed, his tone filled with confusion.
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's gazes in the classroom became somewhat subtle, as if they were looking at an ignorant fool.
"Can you defeat Fang Yang's team?"
Wu Changkong's voice was icy, "If your team can defeat them, or if you can win against any one of them in a solo fight, I will reconsider the candidates."
"This..."
Luo Guixing was speechless, his face alternating between green and pale.
He knew his strength was far inferior to Fang Yang's team; just the others made him feel out of reach, not to mention the unfathomable Fang Yang.
Wu Changkong no longer looked at him, turning instead to face the entire class: "The candidates for this sparring exchange have been decided as Fang Yang's team. Does anyone else have any objections?"
The classroom was silent, everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to speak again.
Everyone had seen Luo Guixing's fate just now, and no one wanted to court bad luck at this moment.
Wu Changkong scanned the room, and seeing no one objected, he continued: "Since that's the case, it's settled then."
"Fang Yang, take your team members and prepare well. This battle concerns the honor of our class."
Fang Yang stood up and nodded slightly: "Please rest assured, Teacher Wu, Teacher Shen, we will definitely give it our all."
His voice was calm yet carried an undeniable confidence that invigorated the atmosphere in the classroom.
"Very good."
Wu Changkong nodded with satisfaction, a hint of approval flashing in his dark green eyes.
At this moment, Shen Yi also spoke with a smile: "Today's class ends here. Everyone is dismissed early."
"Fang Yang's team, please stay to discuss the competition arrangements."
"Yes, Teacher Shen."
Everyone responded in unison, and began to pack their belongings.
The classroom immediately became lively, students left in twos and threes, and many did not forget to cast envious or admiring glances at Fang Yang before leaving.
As Ye Xinglan left, she met Fang Yang's gaze, her eyes filled with encouragement.
Soon, only Wu Changkong, Shen Yi, and Fang Yang's seven remained in the classroom.
Fang Yang took the initiative to speak: "Teacher Wu, Teacher Shen, what are the arrangements?"
"Nothing much, it's just that Teacher Zhuo Shi wants to see you and Tang Wulin," Wu Changkong explained.
"Alright."
Fang Yang and Tang Wulin nodded, indicating they understood.
Immediately, Fang Yang turned and looked at Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan: "I'm going to Sea God Island to see Senior Zhuo Shi. I'll be back soon."
"Mm, okay."
Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan nodded.
"Teacher Wu, Teacher Shen, then we'll head back first," Xie Xie said, a hint of anticipation in his voice.
"Alright."
Wu Changkong nodded slightly.
Xie Xie, Zhang Yangzi, and Wang Jinxi were all quite happy.
Xie Xie was going to find Zheng Yiran, while Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi were going to find their objects, the sisters Zhou Hanyou and Zhou Tian'er.
Just like that, Xie Xie and the others left one after another.
"Sister Gu Yue, let's go out for a walk," Xu Xiaoyan suggested.
"Okay!"
Gu Yue nodded, a smile appearing on her face.
Xu Xiaoyan held Gu Yue's hand, and the pair of good sisters left the classroom, chatting and laughing.
At this moment, Wu Changkong spoke: "Fang Yang, Tang Wulin, let's go too."
"Alright."
Fang Yang and Tang Wulin responded.
Just like that, Fang Yang and Tang Wulin followed Wu Changkong and Shen Yi to Sea God Island.
