Chapter 360 Goodbye Zhu Lie!

After Shrek Academy's replacement, Taining Academy still had no hope of victory. The remaining four of their players were all soul sects. Facing Dai Huabin, a high-level soul king, they might have a chance of winning together, but if they fought one by one, they would only be defeated one by one.

At this point in the competition, there was no suspense. Dai Huabin defeated the last student of Taining Academy, which marked the victory of the entire competition. Because Shrek Academy scored six points first, there was no point in continuing the team competition.

Shrek Academy won the game, scored eleven points, and advanced to the third round.

After the match, Zhu Ziyang didn't stay at the arena, and took everyone back to the hotel directly. And just when they arrived at the hotel, the Taining Academy team just returned to the hotel. The two teams that had just finished their confrontation met again in the hotel lobby. However, at this time, the Taining Academy players were all downcast, like a group of defeated roosters.

On the contrary, their team leader looked calm. Obviously, he had been mentally prepared for such an outcome. When he saw the people in Shrek Academy, he had a smile on his face. He quickly walked up to them and shouted: "Ziyang, Xiaotao, long time no see!"

"Senior Brother Zhu, it's been a long time!" Zhu Ziyang and Ma Xiaotao also responded with a smile.

The team leader of Taining Academy is the Shrek Inner Court disciple who left Shrek Academy after the Xingdou incident and returned to his hometown, Zhu Lie. He, Zhu Ziyang and Ma Xiaotao can be regarded as life-and-death friends, so even though the three haven't seen each other for many years, they still couldn't hide their excitement and joy when they met again.

Zhu Ziyang and Zhu Lie hugged, and then happily introduced to others: "This is Senior Brother Zhu Lie, an outstanding disciple who graduated from the inner courtyard seven years ago."

"Hello, Senior Brother!" Jiang Nannan and the others shouted after their doubts were resolved upon hearing this.

"You don't need to be so polite." Zhu Lie quickly waved his hand, and said with a naive smile, "When I brought them to the competition this time, I thought that I would meet acquaintances from the academy, but I didn't expect to meet them under such circumstances. Thinking about it, this is a bit helpless!"

"Haha, this shows that our fate is not over!" Zhu Ziyang said with a smile.

Afterwards, Zhu Ziyang asked Jiang Nannan to take the others back to the room, Zhu Lie also asked the students of Taining College to clean up the room and salute, and he followed Zhu Ziyang and Ma Xiaotao to the tea restaurant in the hotel lobby.

The three sat down in a corner where they would not be disturbed, and began to talk about the past. From the conversation, Zhu Ziyang learned about Zhu Lie's experience after leaving the academy.

It turned out that after Zhu Lie left the academy, he returned to Taining City of the Heavenly Soul Empire. His family is the largest chamber of commerce in Taining City, and has considerable influence in Taining City and surrounding towns. This influence became more obvious after Zhu Lie returned as a graduate of the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy. After Zhu Lie returned home, he first accommodated Cheng Hui and Wan Wan's family members, and then at the invitation of the Lord of Taining City, he became a teacher at Taining Advanced Soul Master Academy.

He has been working in Taining Advanced Soul Master Academy for seven years, and now he is the dean and vice-principal. He is also the strongest person in the academy. He is already a level 75 Soul Sage at the age of 30. As long as the ruling class of Taining City is a normal person, there is no one who is not friendly to him, so Zhu Lie has had a pretty good life these years.

"Ziyang, the academy has done a lot in the past few years," Zhu Lie said with a meaningful smile on his face, "The junior soul master academies in several towns under the jurisdiction of Taining City have been transformed into Tianyuan Academy by the academy. Our city lord of Taining City is so happy."

"Oh? Is that so? Is Tianyuan Academy expanding so fast?" Zhu Ziyang was taken aback when he heard the words, because it was indeed the first time he had learned that there was also a Tianyuan Academy near Taining City. Cai Meier was mainly responsible for the construction and expansion plan of Tianyuan Academy. Zhu Ziyang never asked about specific matters. Only in the Tianyuan Pavilion meeting, Cai Meier's report could understand the progress of the plan.

"Isn't it?" Zhu Lie said, "At least fifteen Tianyuan colleges have appeared in the entire Linbei province. These Tianyuan colleges are connected in a line, and they are almost surrounding Taining City."

"Hehe, it seems that the little sister is doing a good job!" Zhu Ziyang sighed, looked at Zhu Lie, and said, "Brother Zhu, what do the senior officials in Taining City think of Tianyuan College?"

"How can you see it? Apart from laughing at the academy for being nosy, no one can really see the real intention of the academy for taking this step." Zhu Lie said with a hint of sarcasm on his face.

"Then Senior Brother Zhu, what do you think?" Zhu Ziyang looked at Zhu Lie with burning eyes and asked.

"Hehe, Ziyang, to tell you the truth," Zhu Lie rubbed his head, with a silly smile on his face, and said, "Just before we came to participate in the competition, the college had already negotiated with the Taining City Junior Soul Master Academy. The Taining City Junior Soul Master Academy was renamed Taining City Tianyuan Academy, and I was appointed as the first dean. This is the appointment that Dean Cai personally gave me!"

"Oh!" Zhu Ziyang looked stunned, then smiled at Zhu Lie, and said, "Congratulations, senior brother Zhu, you have been promoted to the position of dean!"

"Hey," Zhu Lie said with an embarrassed smile, "Actually, I also have selfish intentions. Only when I become the dean of Tianyuan College in Taining City can this college not become an aristocratic college again. The juniors of my family, Cheng Hui, and Wan Wan's family don't need to go to the town below to go to school."

"I understand!" Zhu Ziyang said with a serious face when he heard the words, "This is also the purpose of the academy to establish Tianyuan Academy. We want all children to awaken their martial souls and enter the Soul Master Academy to study!"

Half an hour later, Zhu Lie left Mingyue Hotel with the students of Taining College, Zhu Ziyang and Ma Xiaotao stood at the door of the hotel to see them off.

The competition is still going on, the first day's competition is over, and the second day's competition will start immediately. Everyone in Shrek Academy has returned to the mode of the first round of competition. Others are practicing in the hotel, and the four daughters Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan take turns to watch the competition.

On the second day, there was only one game worth Zhu Ziyang's attention, Tangmen vs. Tiejianmen. Tiejianmen is a little-known sect, and Tangmen, who has a soul sage, has undoubtedly won the victory against an opponent of this level.

On the fourth day of the second round of competition, at the gate of Mingyue Hotel, Zhu Ziyang and Jiang Nannan sent away the French Advanced Soul Master Academy where Yang Zhenzhen was. The second round of Faran College was not as lucky as the first round. They encountered a sect team named Tianjia Sect. This sect team was very strong. In the first round, five soul kings appeared on the stage. In the second round against Faran College, only three players were dispatched to win.

The members of the Frank Academy team left, but there was no dejection on their faces. After all, they came this time with the mentality of giving it a try, and it was a pleasant surprise to be able to enter the second round. On the contrary, Jiang Nannan was a little unhappy, after all, she really liked Yang Zhenzhen, and now that Yang Zhenzhen left with the academy, she would naturally feel a little sad.

The second round ended soon, and the ninety-two teams that advanced had no time to rest, so they needed to draw the lottery for the third round. The third round required forty-six games, which were completed in four days, with eleven games in the first two days and twelve games in the next two days.

Soon, the results of the third round of lottery came out. Shrek Academy was still the first game on the first day, and the opponent was a sect team named Overlord Sect. Judging from the previous two rounds of competition, the strength of this Overlord Sect was similar to that of the Tianjia Sect who eliminated the French Academy team. It was a good opponent, but it was not enough for Shrek Academy.

Zhu Ziyang and the rest of the Shrek Academy team didn't take it to heart, and went to sleep peacefully.

This was indeed the case. On the second day's match, Shrek Academy faced Overlord Sect. The battle was one-sided. Zhu Ziyang didn't even let Zhou Tianhe play. Only Dai Huabin, Wu Feng and Xie Huanyue's three preliminary team disciples easily won the victory.
