During the month and a half that Master and Flender were recovering from their injuries, Zhao Wuji, following Master's instructions, led Ao Tian and the other nine students to the Great Soul Arena for practical combat every other day.
The battles in the Great Soul Arena included individual battles and team battles. Team battles were fought with standard seven-person teams, while individual battles could be a one-on-one fight or a two-person team.
Except for Ao Tian, the other eight students would first participate in individual battles every day, followed by a team battle.
During the team battles, Gu Yue Na would step back since there was an extra person.
In the previous individual battles, she always teamed up with Zhu Zhuqing, but she rarely took action unless Zhu Zhuqing was in real danger.
However, the Shrek Team's team battles were quite special. Other teams fought with excellent coordination and tacit understanding.
But the coordination of the Shrek Academy's team was extremely poor, mainly because of the uncooperative behavior of the two girls, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu.
If it weren't for the sake of improving their combat abilities, they wouldn't want to fight alongside someone as disgusting as Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun.
During the fight, Ning Rongrong provided buffs to everyone except Oscar and then remained still in the corner.
If she didn't want to see Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing lose, she wouldn't have buffed Dai Mubai and the others.
Before the battle began, Oscar had prepared recovery big sausages and detoxifying small sausages, distributing them to everyone. However, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ning Rongrong refused them.
Thus, although this was a seven-person team, their teamwork and coordination were extremely poor.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing would cooperate with each other, but they wouldn't cooperate with Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun.
As a control-type Soul Master, Tang San was the core of the entire team. He could not only control enemies but also use his Blue Silver Grass to control his teammates, helping them attack or retreat.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing also refused Tang San's help, rejecting the Blue Silver Grass from wrapping around their bodies.
Zhao Wuji was initially furious at Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing's lack of cooperation, but after trying to persuade them several times, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing simply wouldn't listen.
Later, at the master's suggestion, Zhao Wuji simply stopped interfering.
In the master's words, girls like Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing hadn't yet experienced the harsh realities of society. He believed that when they encountered setbacks and failures, they would come to their senses and start listening.
The master was confident that this day wouldn't be far off. Therefore, in the subsequent matches, Zhao Wuji let Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing do as they pleased.
But, to everyone's surprise, this team, with its terrible teamwork, remained undefeated in team battles over the past month and a half, winning all their matches with a significant advantage.
Since all of them except Ning Rongrong and Ma Hongjun hadn't reached the Soul Elder level, the team could only participate in Soul Elder-level team battles.
Just the day before yesterday, the Shrek Team defeated the Raging Battle Squad, the strongest team at the Soto Great Soul Arena's Soul Elder level.
From then on, the Shrek Team had no rivals at the Soul Elder level in the Soto Great Soul Arena.
However, the master still wanted them to keep fighting, even against weaker opponents, as battling different types of Soul Masters was a valuable experience in itself.
Moreover, Master planned to have the Shrek Team challenge Soul Ancestor-level teams after a while.
As someone who had been through it all, he deeply understood that constant victory wasn't a good thing. These children needed a hard blow, a setback to help them grow faster.
Only by growing through setbacks could they become stronger.
Just as Master and the others entered Soto City, in the office of the general manager of the Great Soul Arena.
A middle-aged man was furious, smashing cups all over the floor. In a corner, another middle-aged man watched with trepidation.
The one smashing the cups was the head of the Great Soul Arena. He roared, "These nobles are going too far! Do they really think there's no one in my Great Soul Arena?"
"There really isn't anyone. Even the Raging Battle Squad lost? Who else can beat that team? Are we supposed to send out a Soul Ancestor-level team? That wouldn't be in accordance with the rules," the middle-aged man in the corner said quietly.
"I don't care! No matter what you do, you must find a team to defeat this Royal Battle Team. Those bloodsuckers, do they really think the Great Soul Arena's money is so easy to earn?"
"This is a bit difficult..."
The irate middle-aged man turned sharply, saying, "Didn't a team defeat the Raging Battle Squad the day before yesterday? Let them go against the Royal Battle Team."
"I'm afraid that won't work. The Shrek Team's soul power level is still quite low..."
"Isn't that perfect?" The middle-aged man sneered. "As long as this Shrek can defeat the Royal Battle Team, it doesn't matter what level they are. Besides, the lower Shrek's level, the more excited those nobles will be, wouldn't it? If Shrek wins, they can make those nobles spit back what they've taken."
"What if Shrek loses?"
"There is no 'if'!" the middle-aged man roared. "When Shrek Academy comes again, you go contact them. Make sure they agree to this fight."
"Alright," said the middle-aged man huddled in the corner.
After having dinner in Soto City, the group from Shrek Academy headed towards the Soto Great Soul Arena.
Gu Yue Na and the three other girls had already put on veils when they entered Soto City. Otherwise, the sight of the four beauties together would definitely have caused a lot of trouble.
After all, Soto City was one of the two main cities of the Barack Kingdom, and there were many Soul Masters within the city. There were also quite a few high-level Soul Masters. Although the city's public order was good, there would still be people who would cause trouble because of their lower body's desires.
To avoid being recognized, the Shrek team entered the Great Soul Arena separately.
After entering the arena, they would go to the changing room to change their clothes and then put on masks. This way, no one would know they were from the Shrek Team.
Even Gu Yue Na and the three girls changed their outer clothes inside, and their veils were replaced with masks for ease of combat.
This was also what the master had requested. A few days ago, because they had won many matches in a row, the master asked them to start wearing masks.
Because Shrek Academy's performance in the Soto Great Soul Arena over the past month had been too outstanding, it had already attracted the attention of many people.
Some nobles and large families had even taken notice of this up-and-coming team.
Master deeply understood the trouble that fame could bring. He didn't want this group of children, the youngest of whom was only twelve, to receive too much attention.
Hiding their identities was a necessity. Otherwise, those nobles would likely send people to bother Shrek Academy every day.
These Shrek students should currently focus on their cultivation, not on socializing with nobles.
After everyone had changed their clothes and gathered, Master led them to the place for team battle registration. He handed over the Shrek Team's badge and said, "Shrek Seven Devils, registering for the team battle."
Although Shrek had nine students, only seven could participate in team competitions. Thus, the team was named the Shrek Seven Devils.
The staff member was startled when they heard "Shrek Seven Devils." Then, they asked, "Sir, are you the person in charge of the Shrek Seven Devils?"
Master frowned, not understanding why the registration process was so long-winded, but he still nodded.
The staff member excitedly said, "Please wait a moment. Our Chief Ao wants to see you."
After speaking, the staff member, clutching the Shrek Team's badge, hurried away.
