"Arno, do you want to attend this auction?"
After Lin Nuo returned to the conference room with the invitation, Xiao Hongchen asked him.
"We've been competing for days, what's wrong with taking a break? Besides, we're not short of money, what if there's something really good at this auction?" Lin Nuo said confidently.
"You're tired my ass, aren't I the one fighting all the time?" Xiao Hongchen retorted helplessly.
"Don't worry about the unimportant details." Lin Nuo waved his hand, then showed the invitation in his hand and repeated Qing Ya's words, "Brothers, tired of competing every day? Let's go to the auction to relax! Experience the thrill of spending money like water!"
The others naturally had no objections.
Since there are no matches tomorrow, attending the auction tonight won't make any difference.
Moreover, their Sun and Moon team was probably the most relaxed of all the teams. From beginning to end, it was Xiao Hongchen and Lin Nuo who were making the moves, while the others barely moved at all.
It wasn't tiring at all.
They were more like there to make up the numbers and act as cheerleaders than to compete. After all, they were important; without them making up the numbers, Lin Nuo and his team wouldn't even be able to start this match.
On the other hand, the Shrek team was in a terrible state.
Huo Yuhao's lie about having a full set of 100,000-year spirit rings was eventually exposed. Even though he showed his cultivation as a Great Spirit Master, he still deliberately made the spirit rings appear white, which was clearly a way of making a fool of you.
Ah, I want to know what color my spirit ring is?
I'm not telling you!
Their battles in the round-robin tournament were truly life-or-death.
Despite Ma Xiaotao and her two companions still being injured, they managed to defeat four or five teams with Soul Kings while maintaining their strongest Soul Master cultivation levels, holding out until Ling Luochen recovered.
Only in the final round-robin match did they play easily, thanks to Huo Yuhao's attribute boost, against Ling Luochen, who possessed the ultimate ice-level power.
One soul skill was enough to wipe out the entire enemy team.
Before this, apart from Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao, who had both exhausted their soul power, none of them had escaped injury. Several of them even went straight to sleep after the competition.
You're only in what grade? Why are you working so hard?
This is why Lin Nuo dislikes Shrek Academy. Joining them really brainwashes you, and they even make you risk your life for Shrek Academy in a place that has absolutely no meaning.
Moon: The results of the competition are not important. What is most meaningful about this competition is that it gives the children a chance to learn and grow.
Lao Xuan/Lao Yan: Kids, keep going! As long as you burn your hearts out and fight tooth and nail in the ring, you will defend the honor of Shrek! You are the pride of Shrek!
Who could possibly hold back like that?
Sometimes Lin Nuo would think, why not just reveal his strength sooner, be more decisive, and shatter their unattainable dreams? That way, they wouldn't have to keep burning with passion for a championship they can't win.
But then I thought about it again.
"What does it have to do with me? I'm just a drug addict from the Sun Moon Empire that they look down on. My martial soul is just the Blue Silver Grass Lung Mist Soul Master!"
What reason do I have to empathize with these Shrek witnesses?
Kill! I want to see rivers of blood!
Then Lin Nuo began to watch Shrek Academy's every battle with great interest, and admired Huo Yuhao and his friends' attitude of valuing honor over their lives.
Awesome! Awesome! (Applause)
Then please try harder and strive to have the opportunity to stand before me. In return, I will show you what true despair is!
Actually, there wasn't much to do at the meeting.
In one of the round-robin matches, after the Shrek reserve team won with all its members injured, Wang Yan went on stage and revealed why only the reserve team was playing.
He didn't explain why the losses were so severe, only that they occurred during the siege of the evil spirit masters. He probably wouldn't even dare to tell the truth himself.
A group of Shrek Academy's elite students, plus a level 98 Super Douluo as their protector, were blown to the sky by a Soul King evil soul master. If this were said in front of hundreds of thousands of people in Star Luo City, Wang Yan would probably be shot seven times in the back and die by suicide the next day.
Shrek immediately became the butt of the joke.
However, under Wang Yan's embellishment, Shrek Academy remains the same bright and noble Shrek Academy, contributing to the peace of the continent by eliminating evil spirit masters, and must be greatly praised and commended.
Shrek's reputation also began to rise rapidly.
At the same time, the true strength of all teams on paper in this competition has been fully revealed.
First, there are Soul Emperor level. Shrek Academy has two who are still recovering from injuries, and Heavenly Soul Emperor Academy has one with the Heaven-Shaking Axe. That's all. The strongest among them is only a high-level Soul King.
On the Sun and Moon Team side, with the addition of the Xiao Meng siblings who can use battle armor, there are a total of five Soul Emperors or higher in combat power, whose numerical strength alone is enough to crush them.
The meeting after the round-robin tournament ended was just a gathering of people chatting and having a cup of tea.
It's completely meaningless.
Using the equipment from the third version in the second version is a bit too much like using a wheelchair.
After Lin Nuo received the auction notice from Qing Ya, the meeting, which could hardly be called a meeting, came to an end. Lin Nuo returned to his room and used his soul communication device to call out Jing Hongchen, who was hiding somewhere.
"Arno, is there something you need?" Jing Hongchen appeared in front of Lin Nuo with a few drops of oil still on the corner of his mouth.
I guess he's somewhere enjoying life with Ye Yulin.
"Grandpa Mirror, tonight the Star Luo Empire's royal property, Starlight Auction House, will be holding a top-tier auction. We've received an invitation and are preparing to attend. I have a feeling that there will be something I want at this auction. I hope Grandpa Mirror and Senior Ye can take some time to come and protect us, so that after we buy the treasure, it won't be secretly snatched back by the people of the Star Luo Empire," Lin Nuo said.
"Oh, no problem!" Jing Hongchen agreed immediately. "You guys go ahead, we two old guys will keep an eye on things from the shadows. After all, Lao Ye and I are here to protect you. Buy whatever you want without worry! I have more money if you need more!"
Then Jing Hongchen left, presumably to bring Ye Yulin back as well.
With Jing Hongchen and Ye Yulin vouching for him, Lin Nuo was completely relieved.
He knew that Xuanzi, that bastard, hadn't stayed obediently at Shrek Academy, but had also come to Star Luo City to secretly protect Huo Yuhao and the others.
Lin Nuo was genuinely worried that the Snow Emperor's embryo would be snatched away by this old beast. After all, the people of Shrek knew better than to talk to him, a member of the Sun Moon Empire, about the martial virtue of not bullying the weak.
For the Snow Empress's embryo, for the second martial soul!
All preparations must be made!
