Both nodded.
"That's true," indeed.
Especially Skywater Academy.
They seemed calm on the surface, but were actually very reluctant.
"So I want to unite everyone and form a new Blazing Fire Squad!"
Feng Xiaotian had originally planned to create a new Divine Wind Squad, but after thinking about it, he remembered he was chasing after Huo Wu.
So, forming Huo Wu's Blazing Fire Squad would be better.
After all, one had to please the other party to have a chance.
"What?"
Huo Wushuang was even more confused!
"Do you mean to let them join our Blazing Fire Squad? How is that possible, they are the defeated contestants, how can they join our team? This completely violates the tournament rules! Your idea is simply too naive!"
Huo Wu said with an unhappy demeanor when she heard this.
She had thought there would be a good method.
But this was it??
"Huo Wu Sister, isn't it stipulated in the finals arena that as long as they are from the same academy, they can act as substitutes, with no need to report?"
Feng Xiaotian looked at Huo Wu.
"Indeed, there is such a rule, but they are not from our academy. Unless you're thinking of having them join our academy."
Huo Wu said, sounding annoyed.
What a lousy idea.
"You... You can't really be considering having them join Blazing Fire Academy!"
Huo Wu eyed Feng Xiaotian suspiciously, feeling that something was amiss!
"I've decided to join Blazing Fire Academy," Feng Xiaotian declared.
In an instant, both Huo Wushuang and Huo Wu were extremely shocked!!
Shrek Academy.
"What kind of place is this, why is there nothing but a bunch of rocks, with a mountain up ahead?!"
Approaching Spirit City.
They had a series of mountains ahead of them.
There was also a valley further inside.
"Boss Dai, staring at those knights, do you also wish to become a warrior?"
The chubby Ma Hongjun spoke up.
Mubai had been looking out the window the whole time, and Ma Hongjun was very curious.
"I'm just observing them. The Royal Knights truly deserve their reputation as the ace of the Tiandou Empire, both well-regulated and well-trained!" Mubai said with a slight smile in response.
"What's so great about that? Isn't that what knights should achieve? I wonder if we could charm some deacons from Martial Soul Hall in Spirit City, Boss Dai, cough cough."
Ma Hongjun started to get excited at the thought.
His entire demeanor was one of rubbing his hands in anticipation.
"Scram, scram, scram!"
Mubai said, sounding annoyed.
"Boss Dai, didn't you say that a man should live freely and strikingly? Why are you telling me to scram!" the chubby one protested with a sad face.
Ever since Zhu Zhuqing left Shrek Academy, he felt that everything had changed.
He hardly ever went to see Xiao Kaixin!
It was as if he had become a different person.
"Shut your mouth!" Mubai said, sounding annoyed, at that moment.
He was determined to change himself!!
He must not decline!!
Seeing Mubai's stern expression, the chubby one immediately shut his mouth.
He believed that if he continued to talk, he would definitely get beaten up.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, the carriage came to a halt!
"What's going on??"
Seeing this, everyone wore a puzzled expression.
They hadn't encountered an assassin on the way, had they?
If that were true, it would be quite thrilling.
Although they were not far from the Royal Hunting Ground, the Empire insisted that the knights escort them all the way there, fearing any unforeseen incidents on the road!
These Tiandou Imperial Knights were extremely formidable, handpicked by His Majesty Xue Ye!
They could definitely be considered the face of the Empire.
Would someone dare to attack even with them escorting?
"Hmm?"
A hint of confusion appeared in Ye Feng's eyes.
Could it be??
Had Martial Soul Hall arrived?
That shouldn't be the case!
Ye Feng remembered that there was indeed an assault incident involving Martial Soul Hall.
The reason was simple: to dampen the Empire's spirit.
After all, Emperor Xue Ye had stood up to the Platinum Bishop.
And within their midst, they had also identified the son of Tang Hao.
The intent was to kill him there!
Two birds with one stone!
"What's the situation?"
Leaning out, they just saw two knights passing by their carriage at full speed.
"All contestants, stay put inside the carriage. Do not come out unless absolutely necessary!" the Knight Commander said.
He, too, felt that the valley path up ahead was somewhat abnormal.
The sky was filled with many crows.
This gave them a profound sense of unease!
"Report to the commander, everything ahead is normal!"
The knight returned to make his report.
This knight had gone to scout the surroundings and found nothing unusual.
"Could it be an illusion?"
There was doubt in the commander's eyes.
"Why would there be maple leaves here!"
The deputy commander of the knights felt this was somewhat inconceivable.
At that moment, he was holding a maple leaf in his hand, talking to himself.
"Halt! Everyone, be on alert!"
The commander immediately gave the order!
The path here was all rugged stone.
Not a blade of grass grew.
How could there possibly be maple leaves?
"What's the matter, what happened?"
Someone from the academy came over to ask.
The carriage had been proceeding just fine when it suddenly came to a stop, and Xiaosan was still recuperating inside!
"There's a situation ahead."
The commander of the knights replied.
"A situation?"
The academy representative looked confusedly at the grand canyon ahead.
Once through this place, they would arrive at Spirit City.
"Commander, there probably won't be any trouble. With so many Imperial Knights, nobody has the guts to do such a thing, and even if there really were trouble, we have enough strength to cope with it! Besides, each academy has their teachers leading the teams!"
At this point, a knight spoke up.
"Not necessarily! It's still better to be cautious! Let's pass through slowly!"
The commander said.
And so, the team set off.
They entered the valley very cautiously.
Suddenly, at this moment, a powerful gust of wind swept in, almost blowing everyone over.
Even the horses sensed that something was amiss and began to neigh anxiously.
"Enemy attack! Form up!"
The commander of the knights shouted at once.
"Boom—"
A series of loud noises!!
Giant boulders were tumbling down from the mountain!!
"How many more boulders could there be!"
The knights were straining against the avalanche of rocks, their strength beginning to falter in an instant!
Many had already been claimed by the crushing stones.
"All cavalry, pay attention, protect the contestants!!"
The commander ordered!!
Because he conjectured that, apart from trying to exhaust their Soul Power, the attacker also intended to use the boulders to cut off the connection between the academies!
"Yes!!"
The knights in the team nodded!!
Boom, boom, boom!
One deafening sound after another.
Indeed, they were being cut off into different sections!
The Dou Huang Battle Team.
"Teacher, it seems that something has happened; we're under attack!!"
At this time, Shimo spoke up.
"Stay put on the carriage for now and protect those around you."
Ye Feng said.
Unclear on what Martial Soul Hall planned to do, it was better to hold position on the carriage for the time being.
They would wait for the attacker to come looking for trouble!
"But these knights seem to be struggling, teacher, aren't we really going to help?"
Yufeng said to Ye Feng.
"Activate your Martial Souls first, leave everything outside to me!"
Ye Feng spoke.
This time there was a Titled Douluo among them!
Recklessly going out, one wouldn't even know how they died.
He didn't wish any accidents to befall his team.
As for the knights, he could only ask them to retreat to the side of the carriage.
He himself couldn't bear the brunt of those huge rocks.
And even if he could, how many could he withstand?
"Retreat to defense!!"
The knight squad leader shouted!!
In an instant, he led his team back in defense to the side of the carriage!
On the other side was Shrek.
"Everyone, release your Soul Power quickly! As I expected, someone is playing dirty. 'A desperate soldier will win,' they're afraid we will win the final match!!"
Master shouted!!
He hoped that his command would inspire everyone to fight against the wind as a test and to strengthen their own capabilities!
"Wuji, protect Xiaosan!"
At that time, Flander spoke.
Each team had at least one teacher leading them.
He instructed Zhao Wuji to look after Tang San.
To prevent any more accidents that might offend someone!
Shrek's members all released their Soul Rings.
The scene looked quite spectacular.
As for Master, of course he did not show his three Soul Rings.
Instead, he stayed with Tang San under the guise of being the teacher who blocked a knife for Xiaosan.
