Upon hearing Feng Xiaotian's words, Huo Wu's lips twitched, and she gave him a disdainful look.
What's the point of this damn two-headed dog spouting all this nonsense now? When you were jumping before, I didn't see you, Feng Xiaotian, jumping any slower.
After a while, once all the God Wind team members were eliminated, the referee went up into the ring and announced that Shrek had won.
The moment they heard that their team had won, all the Shrek members in the lounge cheered.
For them, apart from the invincible Spirit Hall team, Shrek Academy has achieved its best results and can be called the Void Champions.
"Book the banquet! Let's have a victory celebration for the little monsters tonight!"
Flender waved his hand and said loudly.
He was extremely excited at this moment. With the ranking in this Soul Master Competition as his support, Shrek Academy could be considered a benchmark among advanced academies from now on.
As for first place, he never even considered it. The Spirit Hall team must have taken some kind of performance-enhancing drugs; it was practically cheating!
Compared to the jubilant Shrek, the God Wind team was rather downcast. After all, they had a chance to win today, but they made a mistake in their execution.
Huo Wu, who was about to return to the rest room with her teammates, suddenly stopped, turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing, and said seriously:
"You won again this time, but don't get too cocky, I'll come back for you!"
After Huo Wu finished speaking, she left immediately, leaving Zhu Zhuqing standing there in a daze, her eyes blank.
"That Huo Wu is really relentless! Don't worry, Zhuqing, if she dares to cause you any more trouble, I'll definitely teach her a lesson she won't forget!"
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth, cursing Huo Wu for being incorrigible, then rolled her eyes and patted her chest to assure Zhu Zhuqing.
Coming to her senses, Zhu Zhuqing shook her head slightly. It didn't matter. Let her look for it if she wanted. She just didn't want to cause trouble, not because she was afraid of her.
"Never mind her, let's hurry back. I heard that the dean, that tightwad, has actually booked a table for us at the hotel."
"This is truly a rare sight. I'd like to see if the meal treated by a miserly person tastes extra delicious."
Hearing Zhu Zhuqing's words, Ning Rongrong also showed interest. A banquet was nothing to her, but to make a stingy person pluck feathers was quite fun!
The two then quickly left to attend the celebration banquet.
About an hour later, after taking a shower and changing their clothes, the Shrek Seven Devils appeared at the hotel in Spirit City.
"Congratulations to you little monsters for winning second place in this Soul Master Competition! Let's raise a glass together!"
Flender stood up and said happily.
From the moment the referee announced the victory, the smile on Flender's face never faded.
And everyone gave him face, raising their glasses and drinking them down in one gulp, before starting to chat and talk about the future.
After all, in theory, this group of people should have graduated long ago, but they stayed in the academy for the sake of this Soul Master Competition.
The Soul Master Tournament is basically over now. As for tomorrow's match, it's just a game of chance; there's no way I can win.
So now, all the Shrek students are discussing is where they should go after graduation.
"Tsk, Xiao Wu and you guys are so easy to deal with. You can just stay in Spirit Hall with Brother Bai. Besides, with Brother Bai's status, you can have whatever you want!"
"I can't do it. I have to go back to the academy with that old geezer dean. Sigh, life is full of disappointments."
After drinking two glasses of wine, Ma Hongjun started shaking his head and looking at Zhu Zhuqing and the other two with envy in his eyes.
To be honest, he also wanted to stay in Spirit City. If he could stay, with Bai Yu's influence, he might even be able to visit brothels for free, which would be incredibly awesome.
It's a pity, though. He's practically Flender's son, so he has to take care of the old man until his death and can't stay in Spirit City.
(TL: ig in a way you could say that, especially if youre looking at it like how tang san described a student teacher relationship lol, but fatty is just his student while Oscar is more like his son… tho ig it doesn't really matter)
"Smack!"
"You're getting sentimental now. If you want to stay, then stay. Do you think I'd force you to go back?"
Flender slapped Ma Hongjun across the face and said irritably.
Ma Hongjun raised his hand to cover his head and gave an embarrassed smile.
"Hehe, just kidding, just kidding. What would I do if I stayed? In my current state, wouldn't I just be causing trouble for Brother Bai?"
"What if he kicks me out one day? Wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing? I should stay with you, old man. Once I get rid of you, all the money you've saved will be mine!"
After Ma Hongjun finished speaking, everyone at the table burst into laughter. Flender was also furious, thinking, "This brat has really made me laugh so hard!"
However, Flender also knew that Ma Hongjun's decision to return to the academy with him was not because of any ridiculous reason, such as Bai Yu kicking him out of Spirit City.
It's just that he can't bear to part with him. That brat Ma Hongjun has already treated him like a father, and of course, he also treats Ma Hongjun like a son.
"Xiao Ao, what about you? Where do you plan to go after graduation? Will you stay in Spirit City, or like Fatty, return to the academy with the dean?"
"If you haven't decided yet, why don't you come with me? Let's go to Star Luo together, and I'll show you how to explore."
Dai Mubai looked at Oscar and began to try to win him over with his words.
For him, all the people in his team were exceptionally talented and could provide significant assistance in his quest for the throne.
Unfortunately, Huang Yuan and Jing Ling accepted the invitation from Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heavenly Dou Clan and joined the Tiandou Empire's faction.
After being invited by Ning Rongrong, Jiangzhu chose to join Spirit Hall and had no chance of going to Star Luo with him.
As for Zhu Zhuqing and the other two, there's no need to even ask; he didn't even want to.
Sometimes, when he saw Zhu Zhuqing growing more and more beautiful, he felt a pang of heartache. If Zhu Zhuqing could help him, with their combined strength, defeating his elder brother would be a piece of cake, and the throne would be firmly in their hands!
He didn't even dare to mention this matter, otherwise, not to mention Bai Yu, Zhu Zhuqing herself could cripple him.
Therefore, his targets could only be Oscar, Tang San, and Tai Long.
However, Tang San is a very cunning person, and he is difficult to control, so he has not yet decided whether or not to win him over.
The same logic applies to Tai Long. He has a powerful clan behind him, and as a prince without real power, he can't offer them anything. Even if he were to bring them under his command, it would be difficult to control them.
Therefore, Dai Mubai's first target was Oscar. This guy was all alone, weak and vulnerable, but with great talent, making him a powerful logistical asset for raising an army—he was practically perfect.
However, although Dai Mubai was full of calculations, Oscar was not stupid. Through his understanding over the years, he had some knowledge of Dai Mubai's situation in Star Luo.
There's no way he'd let himself get involved in this mess! He didn't want to end up not only failing to gain anything but also dying far from home!
