Chapter 535: Smash Them All! (Subscribe, Please)_1

As they proceeded on their way, the students following behind Qian Yu and Tang Wutong began to discuss their confusion. "Teacher Wutong, and Teacher Qian Yu, I just saw that meals for students from other classes are so much cheaper than ours?"
"Yes! I noticed that too! After we revealed our identity as Tang Sect, the unit price ended up higher!"
"Could it be that Shrek Academy doesn't welcome us from the Tang Sect?"
Tang Wutong also found it somewhat difficult to explain and could only softly reassure them, "The academy doesn't welcome Tang Sect disciples any less, but it's because you have joined the Tang Sect, you no longer belong to Shrek Academy in terms of identity."
It wouldn't be possible to directly tell them that after joining the Tang Sect, they would work for the sect and not continue to stay at Shrek Academy, right?
Right now, they were only temporarily using the classrooms of Shrek Academy for lessons. Still, as an independent sect, the Tang Sect would have to leave Shrek Academy sooner or later, whether they liked it or not!
After listening to Tang Wutong's explanation, the students all felt their heads buzzing, each with their own interpretation...
"I get it, so we're disciples of the Tang Sect, a sect, but not students of Shrek Academy, right?"
"I'm so confused, I don't understand, as long as they aren't rejecting us from the Tang Sect, that's fine."
"It seems that aside from the cafeteria's food being a bit more expensive, there's no other difference!"
Qian Yu sensed Tang Wutong's discomfort and smiled, "Wutong, finding it hard to explain?"
Tang Wutong nodded, "Yeah! After all, these kids wanted to join Shrek Academy initially. Isn't it somewhat improper to do this?"
Qian Yu gently stroked her hair, consoling her, "There's nothing improper about it. These Tang Sect disciples all come from not-so-well-off families. All the various expenses at Shrek Academy are covered by Sister Tang Ya and Big Brother Beibei! Naturally, they will have to work for the Tang Sect in the future."
If the Tang Sect hadn't paid these expenses for them, the lives of the Tang Sect disciples would have been very difficult indeed! They would have to find ways to earn their own living expenses, including food and lodging...
...
After a while, Qian Yu and the others arrived at the square of Shrek Outer Court, where they immediately spotted Zhou Yi with a stern face, waiting...
And behind her were clearly dozens of freshmen already standing...
At this moment, these freshmen were discussing the special class at Shrek Academy, the Tang Sect Class!
"I initially thought the Tang Sect Class was the key class, but it turns out it's just a specially established class!"
"Yeah! Did you guys not notice? Those Tang Sect disciples have to pay ten times as much for their meals!"
"Geez... ten times? Doesn't that mean that one meal costs over a dozen golden soul coins!"
"I really don't know what those in the Tang Sect Class are thinking, joining the Tang Sect not only means less resource care from Shrek Academy but also difficulties everywhere!"
Zhou Yi, hearing these discussions, turned around with a cold face and barked, "Shut up, all of you! If I hear any more of this talk, you'll be directly expelled from Shrek Academy! Understand?"
After her words fell, the students before her all lowered their heads in silence...
At that moment, Qian Yu and the others also walked over, and Tang Wutong greeted Zhou Yi with a smile, "Teacher Zhou Yi, you all arrived so early?"
Zhou Yi turned her head quickly upon hearing Tang Wutong's voice, and after a casual glance at the Tang Sect Class disciples, she said sternly, "I've been waiting for you, let's not waste any more words, let's get started."
Qian Yu's mouth twitched, "Teacher Zhou Yi, no need to rush! Could you clarify how you want the students to spar? Is it to be a brawl between the two classes?"
Zhou Yi was slightly taken aback and shook her head, "Neither! The mode of battle this time is for seven students to be chosen from each class to fight."
Tang Wutong asked curiously from the side, "Imitating the format of the Soul Master competition?"
Zhou Yi nodded, "Exactly! But considering that the seven students drawn won't have Martial Souls that match those of the teams in the competitions, we won't consider that aspect."
Tang Wutong pursed her lips slightly and said softly, "I understand."
Hearing Tang Wutong's acknowledgement, Zhou Yi urged with a pressing tone, "If you understand, then let's start quickly."

Soon after, she began to select students one by one from those she taught...
Tang Wutong also turned her gaze to the disciples of the Tang Sect Class...
These disciples were all staring at Tang Wutong and Qian Yu with puzzled and questioning looks...
"Teacher Wutong, what are we preparing to do?"
"From the conversation just now, are our two classes going to compete against each other?"
"Could it be that this is the entrance examination for Shrek Academy? Will we be eliminated if we fail?"
Tang Wutong smiled and said, "Everyone, don't worry, this isn't an assessment, it's just a simple sparring between the two classes, with each class sending out seven people to compete at a time."
"Now, are there any disciples who want to participate?"
After Tang Wutong's words, the Tang Sect disciples all began to volunteer...
"Me! I want to!"
"And me! This is an opportunity to bring honor to the Tang Sect!"
"I want to try too!"
Qian Yu, standing to the side, watched these eager Tang Sect disciples raising their hands, and his eyes twinkled a few times...
...
At the border between the Xingluo Empire and the Sky Soul Empire, countless Soul Masters from the Sun-Moon Empire were lurking in the dense jungle...
In front of them, the Xingluo Empire and the Sky Soul Empire dispatched hundreds of carriages from within their own borders toward each other's territories...
The whole situation looked rather comical, especially those carriages, which seemed to be intentionally on display for the Sun-Moon Empire to see, without any attempt to hide at all!
A Soul Master from the Sun-Moon Empire hiding in the shadows swore, "What are the Sky Soul Empire and the Xingluo Empire doing? It's obviously a show for us to see!"
Another narrowed his eyes, "They can't possibly be unaware that we from the Sun-Moon Empire are lurking here, what's with all this fanfare? Are they trying to confuse us?"
"Lord Kuangfeng, what should we do? Should we inform our troops to intercept these carriages? They might be carrying soul tools and other combat equipment!"
The burly man, known as Lord Kuangfeng, was none other than a Title Douluo with immense strength entrusted by Xu Tianran!
His deep eyes looked at the densely moving carriages ahead and he coldly commanded, "Intercept? Laughable! How dare they provoke our Sun-Moon Empire like this! Have everyone get ready with their soul tools, and blow all these carriages to bits!"
Upon hearing Wind Douluo's words, a Soul Douluo cautiously said, "This... Lord, won't this expose our location?"
Wind Douluo didn't speak, his icy eyes glanced at this Soul Douluo, immediately silencing him...
Subsequently, the Soul Masters of the Sun-Moon Empire took out their soul tools and aimed them at the continuously moving carriages ahead!
With Wind Douluo's cold command, "Fire!"
The Soul Masters infused Soul Power into their soul tools...
In an instant, a barrage of missiles launched from the soul tools, engulfing the carriages with devastating destructive power...
Before the drivers and the escorts of the carriages could react, the missiles had already hit the ground...
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom! ~~~" The endless sounds of explosions arose, everything was obliterated under the assault of the soul tools!
Wind Douluo watched the smoke-filled scene before him and said coldly, "This is the consequence of opposing our Sun-Moon Empire!"
