Shui Bing'er was astonished to learn that Tang San's supposedly useless Blue Silver Grass was immune to both fire and ice. "Brother Tian, I'm really curious—how did he manage that?"

Feng Xiaotian replied, "It's hard to explain. He had some unique opportunities. If your fire or ice attributes clash with his Blue Silver Grass during the match, it will be tough to win. However, Bing'er and Xue Wu's Martial Soul Fusion Skill is powerful; you could give it a try."

Huo Wu, however, wasn't convinced. "A Martial Soul Fusion Skill? I'm not afraid of him. Let him experience something even more powerful than that!"

Feng Xiaotian smiled and shook his head, casting a glance at Huo Wu. "I advise you against it. Your Fusion Ring Skill is indeed formidable, but it harms you almost as much as your opponent. Is it worth it? Tang San not only has strength but also cunning. If you think of him as just a regular teenager, you'll be making a grave mistake."

He continued, "One more thing: his Blue Silver Grass is poisonous. It's far more dangerous than you imagine!"

Feng Xiaotian understood Tang San all too well—he was a reincarnator, having lived two lifetimes. He would do anything to achieve victory. Whether in team battles or one-on-one duels, Tianshui Academy and Blazing Academy had little chance of defeating him. He knew this was something his companions struggled to comprehend fully. They saw Tang San as another opponent, perhaps slightly stronger, but not unbeatable. But Feng Xiaotian knew better. Tang San was not someone who could be measured by normal standards.

Huo Wushuang gazed at Tang San on the battlefield, a mix of determination and frustration in his eyes. "Brother Tian, if what you say is true, then our Blazing Academy might lose if we face him. Is there no other way?"

Feng Xiaotian responded, "You could make some changes based on your strengths. That might give you a fighting chance."

"Understood."

"Alright, let's keep watching the match and learn more about their tactics."

Feng Xiaotian knew that Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu were both strong-willed and hated losing. Letting them try their luck against Tang San might be the best way for them to learn. The harsh reality of facing an opponent like Tang San would force them to grow, to evolve, or risk being left behind in the dust of their own failures.

Their eyes remained fixed on Tang San, observing the developments on the battlefield. Every movement, every decision made by the Shrek team, was a potential key to understanding their strategy, and Feng Xiaotian intended to learn as much as possible.

The members of Tiandou Royal Academy's second team were trapped, unable to break free. Dai Mubai, Huang Yuan, and Tai Long launched fierce attacks against them. Their combined efforts were relentless, a whirlwind of raw power and skill that left the Royal Academy students scrambling for survival.

Jing Ling, a sensitive assault-type spirit master, employed some underhanded tactics. With Tang San's support, he used his twin bone knives to slice through his opponents, sending blood spraying in all directions amid agonized screams. His strikes were precise, targeting vital points that caused maximum damage with minimal effort. There was no hesitation in his actions, only a cold efficiency that was chilling to witness.

Xiao Wu wasn't any gentler. She grabbed an opponent and slammed them into the arena floor, breaking several bones and causing them to lose consciousness. Her movements were fluid, almost graceful, yet the brutality of her attacks was undeniable. She didn't hold back, not even for a second.

The Shrek Seven were merciless in their attacks. There was no room for mercy in their hearts, not on the battlefield. They fought as if their lives depended on it, and in a way, they did. To them, this wasn't just a competition; it was a war, and they were determined to emerge victorious at any cost.

The arena was filled with the sounds of screams and cracking bones. Blood stained the platform, creating a gruesome sight. The spectators, who had expected a simple match, were left in stunned silence. The sheer ferocity of the Shrek team was something none of them had anticipated. They had come to see a contest of skills, but what they got was a display of raw, unbridled violence.

The girls from Tianshui Academy, kind-hearted and pure, found the scene hard to bear. They had trained for years, honing their skills in preparation for this competition, but nothing could have prepared them for this. The sight of their peers being brutally beaten was almost too much to handle.

Shui Yue'er whispered, "This is just a regular competition, but they're being so cruel! Are these really just teenagers?"

"They're all students, not hardened criminals. Is it necessary to go this far?"

"They're like a group of ruthless monsters!"

Feng Xiaotian warned them, "Remember, if you face them in the competition, do not show mercy. Don't let them take advantage of your kindness!" He understood the importance of staying focused, of not allowing emotions to cloud judgment. The Shrek Seven were ruthless, but they were also calculating. Any sign of weakness would be exploited without hesitation.

Sensing the dire situation, the instructor of Tiandou Royal Academy's second team quickly intervened, signaling to the referee that they were surrendering. It was a wise decision, but it did little to ease the tension in the arena.

The audience was in shock. No one had expected those seemingly young children to be so brutal. There was an eerie silence that hung in the air, a stark contrast to the chaos that had just unfolded. The reality of what they had witnessed was sinking in, and it left a bitter taste in their mouths.

Though there were minor disputes on the stage, the instructor from Royal Academy expressed dissatisfaction, but Tang San had already prepared his explanations, which were more than sufficient. After deliberation, the referees declared Shrek Academy the winner.

Huo Wushuang scoffed, "Shrek Academy sure knows how to make an entrance—they really went all out right from the start."

Feng Xiaotian replied, "They had it all planned from the beginning, intending to severely injure their opponents. It's a strategy that's as effective as it is ruthless."

Huo Wushuang asked, "Brother Tian, they've seriously injured students from Royal Academy. Aren't they worried at all?"

Feng Xiaotian responded, "Ning Rongrong, the daughter of Ning Fengzhi, is part of the Shrek team. Do they have anything to worry about?"

"Good point."

Feng Xiaotian advised, "Now that this match is over, they've exposed part of their strength. When you return, you should formulate some targeted strategies."

"Yes, we understand. Thank you, Brother Tian."

Meanwhile, as Tang San left the stage, he glanced in Feng Xiaotian's direction using his Purple Demon Eyes, feeling an ominous premonition. He knew that the battle had only just begun, and the challenges ahead would be even more formidable. The competition was fierce, but Tang San was determined to come out on top, no matter what it took.
