Prepare to be beaten

The Shrek Seven Monsters had different reactions to the sudden change of space. Tang Wulin was slightly better than the others. He only froze for a few seconds before regaining his composure, but his face was still grave. He had no knowledge of space manipulation, but he could sense that this technique was more powerful than the Tang Sect's.

The rest of them looked either scared or indifferent. Only Ye Xinglan, Yuanen Yehui, and Tang Wulin had similar expressions, but they were a bit slower to react.

Xu Xiaoyan ignored their reactions and clapped his hands twice to get their attention. She said, "Normally, the strength test should be done one by one. But you always say that the Shrek Seven Monsters share the same fate and fight together."

"So I'll give you two options: one-on-one or seven-on-three. For one-on-one, you can choose one of me, Sister Nana, or Sister Lan as your opponent for the test, but we won't take turns. For example, if the first one of you chooses me as your opponent, the second one can only choose Sister Nana or Sister Lan, and so on. For seven-on-three, it's very simple. The three of us will face you seven."

Before Xu Xiaoyan finished speaking, Tang Wulin and the others frowned. Neither of these options was good for them. One-on-one meant being beaten up individually, and seven-on-three meant being beaten up collectively.

They had no hope of winning against them. They knew that any of the three of them was stronger than them. Xu Xiaoyan had become a Soul Emperor a long time ago. Although they didn't know Gu Yuena's true strength, she was definitely stronger than Xu Xiaoyan. Lan Fuzi was a Titled Douluo.

If they could fight Xu Xiaoyan in a round-robin, they might have a slim chance of winning. But Xu Xiaoyan obviously didn't give them that opportunity, and they were doomed to lose.

At this moment, even Xie Xie didn't dare to say anything. He had learned his lesson, and he was also afraid that if he said something that displeased Xu Xiaoyan, he would suffer more.

After thinking for a while, Tang Wulin stood up and said, "Is this really fair? We have no chance of winning, so what's the point of this test? You should know that our Shrek Academy entrance exams always use students of similar levels, but you guys..."

Tang Wulin wanted to say that they were of the same age, but then he realized that Xu Xiaoyan was the youngest among them, and Gu Yuena was also their age after transforming.

Since age was not a factor, Tang Wulin had to rely on rank. He thought that if he said this, Xu Xiaoyan might find someone of their level to test them, or at least suppress her own strength to fight them, so that they wouldn't lose too badly and might even have a chance of winning.

Xu Xiaoyan heard what Tang Wulin was implying, and shook her head slightly. She said, "Shrek Academy is Shrek Academy. This is how we do the exams in the City of Miracles. Do you want to take the exam or not?"

Lan Fuzi also spoke up and said, "You guys are really funny. You complain when we let you pass without taking the exam, and you complain when we agree to let you take the exam."

Lan Fuzi looked at Xu Xiaoyan and said, "Xiaoyan, since they don't want us to be the examiners, why don't we invite Sister Yali here and let her be the examiner. Sister Yali is from the healing department. She is an Limit Douluo who can treat them on the spot even if they get injured."

The Shrek Seven Monsters felt a chill after listening to Lan Fuzi's words. They were really worried that if Yali came, she would hurt them and then heal them and then repeat the cycle. That would be horrible.

Xie Xie said resentfully, "We are here for academic exchanges, not to be your punching bags. Who knows if you will do something sneaky."

Although Xie Xie's voice was low, everyone heard it clearly. Xu Xiaoyan said furiously, "Since you are afraid of being attacked by us, how about I call all the teachers from the Soul Master Academy for you to choose from?"

Xu Xiaoyan paused for a moment and then said, "Oh, wait. The teachers from the Soul Master Academy are all from our City of Miracles, and they might also do something to you. How about letting Vast Sea Douluo be the examiner?"

The Shrek Seven Monsters were tempted, after all, if Chen Xinjie really took action, he would surely be fair. But none of them dared to agree. They couldn't afford to lose face like that.

If someone spread the news, Shrek Academy actually needed to bring their own examiners for academic exchanges. The Shrek Seven Monsters in their current class would become the laughingstock of the Douluo Star, which was something they didn't want to see.

Out of options, Tang Wulin said, "Then let's do what you said. As for which method to choose, we need to think about it."

Xu Xiaoyan stopped teasing them and nodded slightly. "I'll give you thirty minutes to think and discuss your tactics. But I suggest you choose seven versus three. After all, you have a food-type soul master among you."

As Xu Xiaoyan said this, she pulled Gu Yuena and Lan Fuzi and walked away, leaving some space for the Shrek Seven Monsters. Anyway, no matter what they chose, they were bound to get beaten. Who told Xie Xie to be so mean? Serves him right.

The Shrek Seven Monsters were slightly startled after hearing Xu Xiaoyan's words, and they looked at Xu Lizhi involuntarily. If it weren't for Xu Xiaoyan's reminder, they would have almost forgotten that they had a food-type soul master on their side.

In other words, they only had one choice, and that was seven versus three. If they chose one-on-one, it might be easier for Xu Xiaoyan, but Xu Lizhi would have the same outcome no matter who he faced.

The three of Xu Xiaoyan and the others left, obviously to give them some time to plan their tactics, and also to make them speechless after being defeated.

When Xu Xiaoyan and the others disappeared, Xie Xie started to curse, and Tang Wulin calmed him down before telling him to shut up. But when it came to tactics, they really had no clue. Even if the opponent didn't have Lan Fuzi, a Titled Douluo, they couldn't match them, let alone now.

No matter how clever the tactics were, they were useless in the face of absolute strength. However, in order to prevent Xu Xiaoyan and the others from looking down on the Shrek Seven Monsters, they still seriously discussed their strategies.

It was not the style of the Shrek Seven Monsters to admit defeat without a fight, not to mention it would sound bad if word got out. They still cared about their reputation.

Thirty minutes passed by in a flash. Xu Xiaoyan, Gu Yuena, and Lan Fuzi returned to the gymnasium again. The Shrek Seven Monsters also looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy, although the enemy did not take them seriously.
