As for Yu Xiaogang at this moment...
His expression was incredibly ugly.
Especially since they had to stay in Soto City.
Food and lodging were their own expenses!
If they didn't participate in the Soul Fight, they wouldn't even be able to afford food and lodging.
He was quite dissatisfied with Flanders's arrangement.
But from what he said, he couldn't find any fault.
The only problem was that Tang San's strength was slightly inferior to the others.
Yu Xiaogang's throat churned, but he didn't say anything.
"If there are no other questions, you can disband."
"Gather at the playground tomorrow morning as usual and head to Soto City to begin training!"
Flanders nodded in satisfaction.
He had been thinking about this second phase of training for a long time.
Notoriously stingy, he didn't want to spend a penny on these students.
By earning money through fighting spirits, these students could provide their own food and lodging.
This instantly eliminated their financial pressure.
At the same time, it would effectively improve their combat experience.
After disbanding, everyone split up into groups as usual.
Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun had undisguised mockery on their faces.
Pointing in Yu Xiaogang's direction, they chatted.
Gu Xian, on the other hand, continued to walk with Xiao Wu and the other three girls.
Compared to Dai Mubai, his words were less directly sarcastic.
Instead, they offered a sarcastic, cryptic tone.
Those who didn't understand might have thought he was praising Tang San.
Some of their discussion had, however, reached Yu Xiaogang's ears.
His face now looked as gloomy as if he'd just dug coal in a mine.
It had reached a new level of darkness.
As Tang San's master,
Yu Xiaogang believed that the latter's strength was definitely more than just a substitute!
He believed that Tang San's talent surpassed any of theirs!
However, Tang San's skills were indeed inferior to his own.
Even Yu Xiaogang could only endure the hardship.
A day passed quickly.
The next morning, the seven Shrek students gathered on the playground on time.
The sun was exceptionally bright today, the sky clear and blue.
Although it was still early morning, the sunlight already felt somewhat scorching.
Dean Flanders and Vice-Dean Zhao Wuji were already waiting for them.
Everyone had only a few simple belongings.
Flanders gave everyone a few brief instructions and then set off for Soto City.
"Wait a moment!"
Just then, a figure trotted over.
As they approached, everyone realized it was Yu Xiaogang.
Flanders' brows furrowed slightly.
"What's wrong?"
Yu Xiaogang looked at Flanders with a somewhat unpleasant expression.
Then he walked over to the latter and whispered,
"Tang San is missing. We can't find him."
"What? Tang San is missing!"
Flanders was stunned by these words.
Surprised, he repeated them loudly.
Everyone else present heard them, too.
Tang San is missing?
Oscar was the first to react.
Therefore, he had indeed not seen Tang San the entire day yesterday.
Yu Xiaogang had searched for Tang San all day yesterday and couldn't find him.
With no other options, he came to Flanders for help.
The latter pondered for a moment, then his gaze fell on Yu Xiaogang.
"The area around Shrek Academy is quite small."
"And you already looked yesterday."
"Then Tang San is most likely in Soto City."
"Why don't you come with us to Soto City and find out if there's any news about Tang San?"
"In the meantime, there will be other teachers staying at the academy. If Tang San returns, they'll notify me immediately."
Yu Xiaogang nodded somewhat awkwardly.
This was clearly the only option now.
Then the Shrek group set off for Soto City.
Flanders took them to a standard hotel near the Great Fighting Spirit Arena.
Because it was adjacent to the Grand Fighting Arena, even though this place was quite ordinary,
the room rates were double those of other places.
To save money, everyone unanimously decided to have two people share one room.
Of course, Dai Mubai was the exception.
With his considerable wealth, he simply took out a suite.
He also took in Oscar and Ma Hongjun.
Ning Rongrong continued to share a room with Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.
After all, as the young princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect,
Ning Rongrong carried a considerable amount of money when she was away from home.
She even suggested getting the best suite here.
Then she dragged Gu Xian and the other four to live together.
But this proposal was immediately rejected by Gu Xian.
It wasn't that the plan wasn't feasible, but they were still at Shrek Academy.
They were still students.
We still had to be mindful of the impact.
Flanders and Zhao Wuji were still living downstairs.
So Gu Xian reluctantly took a room to himself.
However, he only went back home alone for bedtime.
The rest of his free time was spent with Xiao Wu and the other two girls.
As for Yu Xiaogang, he naturally had to be on his own.
To stay in peak condition, everyone stayed in the hotel to rest.
Waiting for nightfall.
Yu Xiaogang, on the other hand, went alone to Soto City to search for news about Tang San.
Currently, all seven Shrek students were at the Iron Fighting Spirit level.
To advance from Iron Fighting Spirit to Bronze Fighting Spirit, one hundred points were required, and to advance to Silver Fighting Spirit, one thousand points.
Therefore, it would take quite some time to reach their goal.
Because Gu Xian and Dai Mubai were already high-level figures in their tier.
Given their own exceptional martial spirits, they all decided to participate in a one-on-one soul battle first.
Then consider the subsequent soul battles.
Ma Hongjun, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu also decided to participate in a one-on-one warm-up match.
At times like these, Oscar's role became fully apparent.
Although normally they felt a bit nauseous and couldn't eat,
At this critical moment, with his large sausage as a supplement, everyone's soul power and physical strength were effectively replenished.
This gave them a significant advantage over ordinary soul masters participating in soul battles.
Thus, even participating in three soul battles in one night, a feat nearly impossible for most soul masters,
actually, it became normal for them.
As night fell, the Soto Grand Soul Battle Arena returned to its usual bustle.
A bustling crowd began to gather from all directions.
As the most traditional and popular form of entertainment.
This place welcomes a large number of spectators every day.
The wealthy can enjoy the ultimate enjoyment here.
Even ordinary people with limited funds can watch the soul masters compete.
Because the Grand Soul Fighting Arena has some special ticket packages for ordinary people, the prices are very low.
So, as long as people can afford to eat and sleep, they are willing to come here to watch the soul masters compete.
After all, just seeing the soul masters is enough to satisfy the vanity of most ordinary people.
Of course, because they have low-priced tickets, they can see.
It's just some ordinary soul fighting competition.
