Ready to leave

The training in the next month was indeed much harder than before. After defeating Wu Zhangkong in the third ring, he began to train with the strength of the fourth ring.

Although he was suppressing his strength, Wu Zhangkong's real strength was that of the Soul Emperor after all, putting a lot of pressure on a few people. Although Anping and Gu Yuena can explode into extremely strong strength together.

But reality is not like the Spirit Ascension Platform, and Wu Zhangkong cannot let them do this. Even if a teammate is accidentally injured in Spirit Ascension Platform, it will only be uncomfortable for two days at most. In reality, if a teammate is accidentally injured, it will be a serious accident.

One month soon came to an end. Wu Zhangkong looked at the people in front of him. Although his face remained expressionless, he was still very happy in his heart. In this month, even Xu Xiaoyan, who had just joined Class Zero, integrated into the team faster and faster.

"I'll give you a day off today. We'll leave for Skysea City tomorrow." After saying this, Wu Zhangkong left the training ground without looking back.

"Long live Teacher Wu!" Xu Xiaoyan was the first to cheer after hearing Wu Zhangkong's words.

After Wu Zhangkong left, Xie Xie chuckled and said, "I didn't expect that the academy would let us participate in the Skysea Alliance competition. I heard that there will be people from Shrek Academy coming to watch. What do you think if we accidentally win the championship? Will Shrek Academy invite us to join?"

Hearing Xie Xie's words, Xu Xiaoyan said angrily, "You have been daydreaming all day long. You yourself said that many of the contestants are several years older than us. How can the championship be so simple? And do you think that Shrek Academy can be judged by common sense regarding our growth? Even if we win the championship, it will only be the most inconspicuous three-person youth team championship in the Skysea League competition."

"Although Shrek Academy recruits students from all over the continent, it is said that the number of students in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy has never exceeded one hundred, and those who can enter the inner courtyard are extremely terrifying existences. Even if it is conducted once every three years in the open-enrollment outer academy, no less than a thousand people are eligible to apply each time, and the number of people who can actually successfully pass the exam is only about a hundred or so, and sometimes only twenty or thirty people. Therefore, those who can be specially recruited by Shrek Academy are all geniuses among geniuses."

Tang Wulin was surprised and said, "Is Shrek Academy so powerful?"

Xu Xiaoyan nodded seriously, "As the number one academy on the continent with a heritage of 20,000 years, Shrek Academy is certainly powerful. I heard that many of the most elite soul masters on the mainland are graduates of Shrek Academy."

Tang Wulin and Xie Xie looked at each other. They knew that Wu Zhangkong came from Shrek Academy, but they didn't know whether it was the inner academy or the outer academy. To be able to teach a student as powerful as Zhangkong, in their opinion, Shrek Academy is worthy of being the strongest academy in history.

Tang Wulin said, "Let's work hard together. Maybe we will have the opportunity to join Shrek Academy in the future."

Gu Yuena poked Anping next to her, "What do you think of Shrek Academy?"

After hearing Gu Yuena's words, several others also looked at Anping. Anping was stunned for a moment and said: "Shrek Academy may be some people's belief, but it is not my belief. In my opinion, it is just a Academy. So I can't express any other opinion if I haven't seen it."

Hearing Anping's words, Xie Xie retorted, "That's the legendary Shrek Academy. Many soul masters with names in history came from Shrek Academy. Don't you want to join?"

Anping shook his head, saying, "I consider myself fortunate to have gained some recognition, but does that define my entire life? It doesn't matter. What's the use of dwelling on it so much? You mentioned numerous soul masters who left their mark in history. Do you believe they wouldn't have achieved fame without Shrek Academy?"

Xie Xie said angrily, "It doesn't matter. Maybe you are a genius in Eastsea City, but Shrek Academy recruits students from all over the continent. Even if you want to join, they don't necessarily want you."

Anping shook his head gently, knowing that he had this kind of character, and didn't want to argue with him anymore, "There is no point in discussing these now, let's think about the Skysea Alliance competition."

Gu Yuena asked curiously, "Then what is your belief?"

"My belief? Does world peace count?" Anping said and smiled, "I'm just kidding, I don't know now, maybe I will know in the future."

"You think too much about world peace." Gu Yuena slapped him playfully.

When they heard about world peace, several people couldn't help but smile. Speaking of which, although there has been no war in Douluo World for a long time recently, it can't really be called peace.

Xie Xie said, "We don't have to train today. Do you have any plans? How about we go out to play?"

"I'm going to the Blacksmithing Association. I still have some things to do, so I won't go," Tang Wulin shook his head as he spoke.

"Wulin, you've been spending the whole day at the Blacksmithing Association. How can you still choose to stay there even on the day of rest?" Tang Wulin exclaimed in frustration upon hearing Xie Xie explanation.

Tang Wulin said matter-of-factly, "Heading to the Blacksmithing Association to earn money. Going out for fun costs money. Do you think everyone is a young master like you? Besides, aren't we going to Skysea City to participate in a competition tomorrow? I also want to ask the Blacksmithing Association how they've arranged it."

"Let's go, let's go," Xie Xie looked at the others again, "What about you, do you want to go out for fun?"

Xu Xiaoyan said, "I'll go as soon as Sister Nana goes."

Perhaps because there are only two girls in Class Zero, or maybe because the relationship between girls is like this, the bond between Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yuena progressed rapidly in Class Zero.

Gu Yuena said, "Let's go play too, but we won't take Xie Xie with us."

"Did you hear me? I won't take you with me," Xu Xiaoyan said, making a face at Xie Xie.

Xie Xie retorted, "How much you hate me."

"It's almost like hating flies," she said with a smile, "Anping, Xiaoyan, let's go."

"Whatever I ask of you, just take me with you." As he said that, he shamelessly followed them.

Despite claiming to hate Xie Xie, Gu Yuena didn't object when he followed her. To be honest, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan's banter was quite entertaining. They spent the day shopping and eating in various places in Eastsea City.

In people's subjective consciousness, vacation time always passes quickly.

The next day arrived, the day to set off for Skysea City. Early in the morning, Wu Zhangkong led the students from Class 0 out of Eastsea Academy, heading to Eastsea Square in the center of Eastsea City.

It wasn't only Eastsea Academy students participating in the Tianhai Competition, as it was an officially organized event. The official delegation from Eastsea City was also joining the competition. The meeting point was Eastsea Square.

Upon reaching the academy gate, they encountered contestants from the senior department. The senior division registered for the seven-person team competition in the youth group, and among them was an acquaintance, Xu Xiaoyan's brother, Xu Xiaoyu.

Spotting Class 0, Xu Xiaoyu approached Xu Xiaoyan and said in a boastful tone, "Xiaoyan, if they bully you, just let me know, and I'll help you beat them back."

Xu Xiaoyan rolled her eyes, "Take care of yourself. Don't fail to pass the preliminaries again. Help me beat them up? Have you forgotten what happened on the Ascension Platform last time?"

Xu Xiaoyu's face froze, and after Xu Xiaoyan's reminder, he awkwardly recalled that these Class Zero students were the ones he encountered on the Spirit Ascension Platform last time. He said, "This time, we're participating with students above the third ring level. We'll definitely achieve good results. The last time I ascended to the Spirit Platform was an accident due to poor performance."

Xu Xiaoyan curled her lips and said, "Tsk, you claimed you could protect me when we entered the Spirit Ascension Platform, but in the end, we were both beaten out."

"I told you it was just an accident," Xu Xiaoyu whispered, showing no confidence at all.
