Generally speaking, this kind of formal dress is rarely worn by Soul Douluo and Titled Douluo. It represents not only status but also solemnity. It is only worn by Soul Douluo on occasions such as dueling an opponent of equal rank or at extremely important events. The fact that these three elders were dressed in formal attire naturally wasn't because they were heading to a duel, hence it could only signify one thing, their profound respect for the delegation from Shrek Academy. Moreover, these three elderly men had personally come to meet them at the entrance of the Education Committee.
Even if Flander was a bit prouder, faced with such a situation, he couldn't help but feel flattered. He had always believed in respecting others as they respect him. Seeing such a display of esteem from the other side, how could he not respond in kind?
