356: Chapter 356 Teacher Erlong is Arrested

The next day, the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Competition began on schedule.

The arena was bustling with noise, with various academies gathering in the stands, creating a rowdy atmosphere.

Everyone from Shrek went, except for the most familiar figure.

Ma Hongjun looked around, his face full of confusion, and couldn't help but ask: "Strange, why isn't the Dean here?"

Upon hearing this, doubts and worries arose in everyone's hearts.

As the Dean, Flender should not have been absent, especially since he cared so much about the glory of Shrek Academy.

But after what happened, unless he couldn't get over it...

A flicker of guilt crossed Tang San's mind. Thinking of the scene where Flender was devoured, a trace of lingering fear flashed in his eyes.

He suppressed the turmoil in his heart.

"The Dean suffered a huge blow yesterday and couldn't let it go for a while. I went to see him today; he wants to be alone and won't come to the arena today. Just follow the plan we agreed upon yesterday and give it our all."

Everyone was instantly relieved.

No one understood the humiliation and heartbreak of yesterday better than they did.

Teacher Liu Erlong was captured,

and he himself had to kneel in humiliation. Anyone would find that unbearable.

The group suppressed their emotions and walked into the arena in silence.

As soon as they stepped into the competition venue, many gazes focused on them.

"Look, look, the people from Shrek Academy are here. Tsk tsk, have you heard about yesterday? A teacher from Shrek Academy threw herself into the arms of the Holy Son of Spirit Hall."

"Not only heard, I was there. The Shrek students didn't agree and insisted on framing the willing act as forced, but the Holy Son of Spirit Hall was generous and didn't hold it against them."

"Yesterday was really interesting. There was also the mother of Tang San, the strongest in their team. Tang San didn't even agree with his mother finding her own happiness. What a selfish guy, raising an ungrateful wretch."

...

The dense, whispered mockery made everyone from Shrek stiffen, feeling stifled.

"A bunch of damn guys who don't know the truth, just discussing nonsense here. How could Aunt Erlong be willing?"

Ma Hongjun snorted softly. Beside him, Tang San clenched his fists tightly. Now, many people knew that the Holy Son of Spirit Hall was going to become his father.

Damn it, damn it!

They all deserve to die.

Tang San suppressed the anger and embarrassment in his heart and walked forward, biting the bullet.

As soon as they sat down, the noise of the whole venue suddenly changed. Everyone's eyes were cast toward the VIP platform, and everyone let out small gasps.

The Shrek group followed the gaze and looked up, their bodies stiffening, anger exploding in their chests.

The Holy Son of Spirit Hall, Su Wen, appeared on the high platform.

By his side, three beautiful figures followed.

Ah Yin and A Rou, dressed in blue with ethereal and otherworldly temperaments.

Liu Erlong was also following closely by his side. The face familiar to everyone from Shrek was flushed, and the exposed snow-white neck was covered in marks, with no intention of covering them up.

"His Highness the Holy Son!"

Bishop Salas stepped forward to welcome him, with Xue Qinghe following unhurriedly behind.

She felt a bit strange about Su Wen now; she had already heard about the matter.

What Su Wen did was really...

Xue Qinghe's expression was gentle, showing elegance: "For the Holy Son to personally observe the Spirit Master Competition, today's matches will surely be very exciting."

As Xue Qinghe spoke, he led Su Wen to the viewing stand.

Emperor Xue Ye was not here today, and Xue Qinghe would be fully responsible for the progress and fairness of the Spirit Master Competition.

Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, Dugu Bo, Hu Yan Zhen, and others were already in the VIP seats.

Everyone greeted each other politely, and Ning Fengzhi did not mention a word about yesterday's events.

Seeing that Su Wen was actually sitting in the main seat, and that Liu Erlong and Little San's mother were still waiting on him closely, Ma Hongjun and Oscar from Shrek were both jealous and angry.

"Aunt Erlong is so pitiful. A whole night has passed, and she still can't leave that demon."

Ma Hongjun was dying of envy, looking at Liu Erlong's radiant face.

As a regular at the brothel, he was all too familiar with that look.

This was a state of great satisfaction.

"It's fortunate the Dean didn't come, otherwise I'm really afraid the Dean wouldn't be able to hold on."

"Brother San, are you okay?"

Seeing Tang San's hands trembling, Oscar spoke with some concern.

Tang San let out a breath of stale air: "I'm fine!"

"Xiao Rou, what's wrong?"

Just as Oscar exhaled, he saw that the Xiao Rou beside him was pale and her body was shaking uncontrollably, so he stepped forward and hugged her.

"For the next match, Shrek Academy versus Blazing Academy. Please have both teams prepare to take the stage."

On the high platform, Su Wen heard that Tang San and the others were going to take the stage, and his gaze couldn't help but sweep over.

Blazing Academy was an established academy. As soon as both sides started the match, the duel with Shrek Academy was a full-force effort.

Led by Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang, after several hard clashes, the strong attacks of Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were restrained by the flames.

Oscar and Ning Rongrong's support was constantly interrupted, and the battle situation fell into a disadvantage from the very beginning.

Just at the exciting moment of the battle, the audience only saw Tang San throw a few things, followed by an explosion. Blue light, instant explosion, and binding—multiple effects stacked, instantly locking down the movement and Soul Power circulation of the Blazing Academy team.

Taking advantage of the opponent's stiffness and openings, a cold light flashed from Tang San's sleeves.

Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai, and Zhu Zhuqing also fired their Silent Sleeve Darts at the same time.

Several Hidden Weapons broke through the air and hit their Acupoints precisely.

With a few soft thuds.

In just a few breaths, the outcome was decided.

Su Wen, who was watching the game quietly, had a faint look of understanding in his eyes.

Throughout the match, the spirit tools Tang San used were all stuck at the fifth-level standard, matching his current Soul Power.

His Hidden Weapons should be the Silent Sleeve Dart; it's really hard for ordinary people to defend against.

Su Wen saw that the people from Shrek Academy were smiling again because of the victory.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

He stood up slowly, taking A Rou, Ah Yin, and Liu Erlong, and walked towards the rest area of Shrek Academy.

Su Wen had not forgotten his purpose: to understand Tang San's spirit tools and to complete his own kindness assessment.

At this moment, the Shrek group had achieved victory and had just collected their emotions and walked off the arena. Because of the victory, Tang San's suppressed mood had improved a lot.

Just then, Tang San saw the person he least wanted to see.

Su Wen walked straight towards them, with A Rou, Ah Yin, and Liu Erlong following by his side, looking dazzling and carrying an oppressive aura.

Su Wen's gaze swept over the Shrek group, his tone calm and gentle: "You fought well today. Congratulations on your victory."

The tone was calm, like a normal compliment from an elder to a Junior.

The Shrek group's expressions were complex. No one dared to take the initiative to speak, except for Xiao Wu, who bounced up to greet him.

Tang San didn't dare to look. He deliberately turned his head away, gritting his teeth, pretending not to see or hear anything.

Ah Yin frowned slightly, her gaze falling on Tang San, and she reprimanded him:

"Little San, an elder is greeting you. Ignoring your elders—is this your current upbringing?"
