He merely cast a cold glance at his younger brother behind him.
Yu Tianheng and the others saw Xiao Wu and her team step onto the stage.
They greeted them with a smile.
"You've arrived. Don't worry, we'll go easy on you later!"
Oslo chimed in:
"It's been a while. Let's just make it a friendly match."
In response to Yu Tianheng and Oslo's words, Xiao Wu and the others nodded.
But they didn't take it to heart at all.
Meanwhile, Yun Feng, seated in the stands, watched Yu Tianheng and the others.
A faint smile appeared on his face.
He hadn't forgotten about his own plans.
But this place was still too small.
He would wait a little longer!
Liu Erlong and Miao Miao, standing beside him, looked at Yun Feng with confusion.
Only the original members of Shrek Academy guessed that Yun Feng might be up to something mischievous again.
They immediately looked at Yu Tianheng and the others with pity.
Especially Qin Ming.
That poor kid was about to suffer again.
"Both sides, bow. Non-participants, please leave the stage."
The host's words interrupted Tang San and the others' ongoing discussion.
After both sides bowed to each other, they stared intently at their opponents.
On the side of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Yu Tianheng stood at the forefront, followed by Oslo. The Shi brothers protected Ye Leng Leng, while Yu Feng was positioned on the flank.
As for Lanba Academy, they didn't have as many formalities.
They stood casually, but Jiang Zhu and Ning Rongrong were protected in the center.
In the VIP seats.
Emperor Xue Ye smiled as he watched the stage, turning to Ning Fengzhi beside him:
"Sect Master Ning, it seems this first match will be a foregone conclusion!"
Emperor Xue Ye didn't see Yun Feng on the stage, which put his mind at ease.
As for the rest, he considered them mere decorations.
Because Xiao Wu and the others had rarely made appearances, many people were unaware of their capabilities.
But Yu Tianheng's side was well-known to the Heaven Dou Emperor.
After all, they had joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
As the academy's head, how could he not have their information?
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly and nodded in agreement.
But in his heart, he had a different thought.
Of course, he favored his daughter's Lanba Academy.
That was beyond doubt.
Although his son-in-law was a bit of a scoundrel, he took meticulous care of his girlfriend.
Even his daughter had reached the level of Soul Elder, which spoke volumes.
Moreover, she had consumed an Immortal Herb.
On the other side, Platinum Bishop Salas suddenly spoke:
"Sect Master Ning, could you tell me which of the twenty-eight Soul Master teams you previously favored is the one you consider a contender for the championship?"
Ning Fengzhi smiled and replied:
"Bishop Salas, isn't a bit of mystery a good thing? I'm sure you have your own supported team as well."
Salas forced a smile and said:
"So, Sect Master Ning, you're unwilling to reveal it?"
Ning Fengzhi calmly replied:
"This is my own secret, and it seems unrelated to you, Bishop Salas."
"You..."
Salas's expression visibly darkened. His gaze clashed with Ning Fengzhi's in front of Emperor Xue Ye, neither willing to back down.
Yun Feng, however, noticed this.
With his spiritual power developed to this extent, he could naturally sense every movement over there.
Seeing this, his eyes filled with amusement.
He couldn't help but murmur to himself:
"Aren't both sides my people?"
After thinking it over, Yun Feng chuckled.
Indeed, neither side knew about Yun Feng's connections with the other.
The Spirit Hall was somewhat aware that Ning Rongrong and Yun Feng were together.
However, this was not something a bishop like him could meddle with.
Up until now, only Ghost Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Pope Bibi Dong had been in contact with Yun Feng.
It was normal for those below to be unaware.
Ning Fengzhi was no exception.
Over the years, Ning Fengzhi had used his resources to thoroughly investigate Yun Feng's life trajectory.
There was no possibility of him having any contact with the Spirit Hall.
Naturally, he wouldn't think of such a thing.
This was why such a confrontational scene had unfolded.

Sitting in the middle, Emperor Xue Ye frowned slightly and mediated:
"There's no need for both of you to be anxious. Once this tournament is over, the results will naturally be clear."
"Bishop Salas, Sect Master Ning is not wrong. Who he favors is his own business. Look, I wouldn't dare ask such a question either, though I'm also quite curious."
Though Emperor Xue Ye spoke these words.
Seeing the conflict between Ning Fengzhi and Bishop Salas, he was secretly delighted.
After all, the empire was in a weakened state.
This was exactly what he wanted to see.
Only with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the empire combined could there be a slight chance of resisting the Spirit Hall.
After all, they were unaware of the hidden Titled Douluo within the Spirit Hall, thinking only the ones on the surface existed.
Platinum Bishop Salas glanced at Emperor Xue Ye and, seeing no resolution, calmly said:
"Your Majesty is right. Let's just watch the match."
Sitting in the second row, Prince Xue Xing proudly said to those around him:
"Look, His Majesty and Sect Master Ning have already seen that this match is a foregone conclusion."
"The students of our Heaven Dou Imperial Academy are the true elites. This time, our main team has only one goal: to win the championship."
The Heaven Dou Imperial Academy was under his jurisdiction, and achieving good results would naturally bring him glory.
As for Lanba Academy, what kind of place was that?
Ning Fengzhi was full of confusion. When had he ever said he favored the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy?
Realizing this, he understood that everyone had misunderstood his intentions.
He didn't explain.
He simply smiled and remained silent.
Although Tang San and the others had been severely tricked by Yun Feng.
Their progress in cultivation was not as strong as in the original story.
But compared to the likes of Yu Tianheng, they were still much stronger.
This could be considered a slight improvement.
Meng Shenji also highly agreed with Prince Xue Xing's words.
This was the only good thing he had done for the academy during this period.
Knowing his identity, he didn't pay much attention.
At that time, Prince Xue Xing had been captivated by Yun Feng's affairs.
Naturally, he hadn't paid attention to the information about Tang San and the others.
"The first match of the first round of the preliminaries, officially begins!"
At the referee's signal, the first match of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament officially began.
Similar to the Soul Duels, the tournament allowed one minute for both sides to release their Souls.
Zhu Zhuqing was the most mature among them. Before the match, Yun Feng had instructed her to act as the vice-captain.
No one had any objections.
When the referee announced the start.
A fierce fighting spirit erupted in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes.
Having followed Yun Feng for so long, she also wanted to prove her strength.
With a sharp cry, she shouted:
"Release your Souls!"
The phantom of the Nether Spirit Cat appeared behind her, instantly completing the fusion.
When both sides simultaneously released their Souls, and all the Soul Rings appeared before the audience's eyes, gasps of astonishment immediately spread through the crowd.
Two yellow and two purple Soul Rings brilliantly flashed around Zhu Zhuqing, while Xiao Wu and the others standing beside her also released their Souls.
The Soul Rings shimmered, each person displaying four rings.
