"Hehe, Sister Erlong, you don't understand this. If it were just the original students of Lanba Academy, they might not be able to defeat Tiandou Royal Academy. But things are different now," Flanders said proudly, his eyes shining with confident light.
Liu Erlong's gaze swept over Dai Mubai and the others. They were generally only thirteen or fourteen years old, with a bit of youthfulness still on their tender faces. Her brows couldn't help but furrow slightly, and she was full of suspicion.
Generally, even outstanding soul masters need to be at least sixteen to eighteen years old to enter a high - level soul master academy. Commonly, they reach level 20 at around twenty years old. And Chen Feng and the others didn't look eighteen at all.
Even if they had reached level 20, so what? The first team of Tiandou Royal Academy had members all above level 30, and their strength was remarkable.
"Sister Erlong, do you still not believe me?" Flanders asked.
Liu Erlong didn't answer, but her eyes betrayed her attitude.
There was a hint of doubt in her eyes, clearly showing that she was skeptical of Flanders' words.
Anyone in her place would have doubts.
"Little monsters, reveal your martial spirits," Flanders' command echoed over the empty lake.
"Okay, Dean!"
As Flanders' voice faded, the Shrek Seven Devils responded in unison. One after another, brilliant lights bloomed behind them, like the brightest stars in the night sky, and various martial spirits were revealed.
Chen Feng with the Maple Leaf Divine Sword, level 37, three - ring Battle Soul Elder.
Dai Mubai with the Evil - Eyed White Tiger, level 37, three - ring Battle Soul Elder.
Oscar the Sausage - Maker, level 31, three - ring Weapon Soul Elder.
Tang San with the Thousand - Handed Asura, level 33, three - ring Battle Soul Elder.
Ma Hongjun with the Evil Fire Phoenix, level 28, two - ring Battle Soul Master.
Xiao Wu with the Soft - Bone Charm Rabbit, level 32, three - ring Battle Soul Elder.
Ning Rongrong with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, level 31, three - ring Weapon Soul Master.
Zhu Zhuqing with the Nether Spirit Cat, level 28, two - ring Battle Soul Master.
Gu Long with the Bone Dragon Nether Shadow, level 33, three - ring Battle Soul Elder.
Liu Erlong's heart was in turmoil. Her gaze swept over the children standing in the sunlight one by one. It seemed that at this moment, time was frozen by this astonishing scene.
She considered herself experienced, having witnessed the growth and transformation of countless soul masters, and having an almost instinctive judgment of the strength of soul power.
However, today, by this lakeside covered with golden sunlight, her perception was like an ice surface shattered by a heavy hammer, full of cracks.
Those faces of thirteen or fourteen years old should have been the epitome of youth and innocence. But at this moment, their strength was like bamboo shoots breaking through the ground, rapid and unstoppable.
A soul power of level 30 was already outstanding among their peers, enough to draw attention.
However, when she learned that some of them had reached level 37, her mind was shaken.
Such an achievement was an ultimate demonstration of talent and hard work. They were the cream of the crop among geniuses, even a monstrous existence.
When her eyes fell on the child named Chen Feng, Liu Erlong could hardly believe what she saw.
She had seen numerous talents and witnessed countless prodigies cross the line between life and death, challenging their limits.
Yet, these achievements were all after they had endured countless hardships and experienced the vicissitudes of life.
But this boy in front of her, who was only thirteen years old, already had a ten - thousand - year soul ring, a sight that completely overturned her understanding.
Even those renowned high - level soul masters were often cautious in the face of ten - thousand - year soul beasts, and some didn't even dare to approach them easily.
These soul beasts possessed nearly invincible power, and every battle with them was a matter of life and death.
However, today, a thirteen - year - old boy actually had a ten - thousand - year soul ring.
This not only meant that his future potential was immeasurable but also symbolized that he had taken a huge step on the path of a soul master that others could hardly imagine.
The younger generation is truly formidable!
There was a newfound firmness in Liu Erlong's tone, as if she had already seen the glorious victory in the future.
"Boss Fu, I really believe you now. With these little guys joining our team, I dare say that we won't be at a disadvantage when competing with the Royal Fighting Team next year."
In the field, the students of Shrek Academy heard this and the corners of their mouths slightly turned up, a smile spreading quietly at the edge of the field.
Liu Erlong's brows furrowed slightly, and the original sharpness in her eyes was replaced by a trace of confusion.
She didn't understand why these children were so relaxed and could smile so easily in the face of future challenges.
"Sister Erlong, you don't know these children well enough," Flanders said, a proud smile on his face.
"The Royal Fighting Team? Ha, they can't even compare with our students."
Upon hearing this, the disbelief in Liu Erlong's heart surged like a tide.
"Surely not. They're the Royal Fighting Team, with an average soul power above level 30."
All kinds of speculations churned in her mind.
"Could it be that you dealt with their second team?"
For Liu Erlong, only this explanation seemed reasonable.
As for the first team... it was impossible to be defeated.
Flanders' laughter echoed in the morning breeze, as if carrying an uncontrollable joy of victory.
"Haha, I wonder if the second team you mentioned refers to Yu Tianheng and Duguyan. If so, then we indeed defeated the so - called second team."
Liu Erlong felt her heart rate accelerate at this moment. Her mind seemed to be hit hard by this unexpected truth, and she lost her direction for a short time.
In her perception, Yu Tianheng and Duguyan were the talented students in Tiandou Royal Academy, like the brightest stars in the sky, shining brightly.
Were they the second team? What a joke!
These "little monsters" in front of her actually had the strength to challenge and defeat the Royal Fighting Team?!
As this thought rose in her mind, Liu Erlong involuntarily swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and an incredible wave rose in her heart.
Her eyes shifted back and forth between Flanders and the children, as if trying to find a hint of joking in their eyes. However, she found no room for doubt.
At this moment, a huge storm seemed to be raging in Liu Erlong's heart.
The picture of that intense battle emerged in her mind. Top - notch experts like Yu Tianheng and Duguyan were actually defeated one after another by these children casually called "little monsters".
Flanders had an un - hideable proud expression on his face, as if silently proclaiming, "Look, this is the foundation and strength of our Shrek Academy."
Although Liu Erlong had accepted this astonishing fact in her heart, there was still a hint of disbelief in her tone.
"Boss Fu, are you serious? These so - called little monsters really defeated Yu Tianheng and the others?"
A hint of cunning flashed in Flanders' eyes, and the curve of his mouth deepened a bit more.
"Absolutely true. Otherwise, you can ask Xiaogang."
He casually pointed to the Grandmaster beside him.
"Yes," the Grandmaster, who usually didn't smile much, nodded gently at this moment.
Liu Erlong stood there dumbfounded, taking a long time to digest this astonishing fact.
