Chapter 144: Encountering Canghui, Shi Nian Takes Action.
Nearly twenty days passed in a flash, and the Continental High-Level Spirit Master Competition officially began.
At that moment, in the Tiandou City competition area, "Little monsters, why are you still wearing cloaks? Hurry, take them off!"
Flanders, upon seeing Xuan Mo and the other six still wearing cloaks that completely obscured the uniforms he had designed, called out to Xuan Mo and the others to remove them.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Xuan Mo, watching to see how he would handle the task.
"Dean, we plan to reveal the uniforms at the start of the competition. That way, wouldn't it be more impressive? That way, your investment promotion efforts would be more successful."
Xuan Mo glanced at the others, met Flanders's suspicious gaze, and said something with a forced smile.
"Yeah, that makes sense. But..."
Flanders said, turning his gaze to the Shrek group. Although he didn't say anything, everyone understood Flanders's meaning.
Everyone exchanged a glance, then simultaneously flung aside their cloaks, revealing their uniforms.
The turd-green color paired with the slogan was a perfect match, practically unattractive.
"Hmm, not bad," Flanders nodded with satisfaction after seeing everyone don their uniforms.
He then pulled several badges from his pocket and had them pinned to their chests.
"Alright, get down quickly and prepare to enter. I'll check on Tang San and the other six."
After seeing everyone accept the badges, Flanders dismounted the oversized carriage Ning Rongrong had rented.
He muttered, "Really? Why rent such a large carriage? It must cost a fortune. What a waste! This isn't far. We might as well just walk."
Xuan Mo was speechless upon hearing this. If they had truly walked all the way from the academy, given Flanders's personality, he would have jumped at the chance to attract investment, and their reputation would have been completely ruined.
After seeing Flanders exit the carriage, the other five gathered around him, with Ma Hongjun exclaiming with excitement, "Brother Mo, you really managed to fool the teacher."
"Now it's up to Xiao San and the others. Hurry, change your inner coat now, or we'll be out of time."
With that, he pulled out from his "King Kong" a coat and jacket designed and custom-made by Ning Rongrong a few days ago.
...
"Wow, so many people!"
After exiting the carriage, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but exclaim at the sight of the huge crowd outside.
After all, it was her first time witnessing such a scene.
Xuan Mo stood by Ning Rongrong, protecting her while also turning his gaze to Tang San and the others.
After all, only if Tang San was perfectly fine could his plan proceed smoothly; otherwise, he would face humiliation.
Only after Tang San gave him a reassuring look did Xuan Mo slowly breathe a sigh of relief.
However, the Shrek team, clad in capes, stood out from the crowd. After all, no other academy's uniforms were as dazzling as theirs.
Consequently, the Shrek team's appearance sparked heated discussion among the surrounding crowd, with numerous voices questioning their strength.
"Damn it! If the teacher hadn't designed such an ugly uniform before, and now, if we weren't afraid of ruining our plan, would we have ended up in this situation?"
Ma Hongjun, upon hearing the crowd's chatter, nearly stormed out to argue with them.
Seeing this, Xuan Mo restrained the restless Ma Hongjun with one hand and signaled with his eyes to the smiling Flanders behind him. "Fatty, be careful with your words."
Then, glancing at Flanders, who was distracted, he said, "I think our plan only has one chance. We'll probably have to discuss this with Dean Flanders when we get back."
Meanwhile, just as the Shrek team had squeezed into the competition area and removed their caps, before they could even catch their breath, a voice that struck Xuan Mo as eerie and vaguely familiar rang out from the side.
"Oh my, what a narrow road for enemies! A bunch of guys are hiding their heads and showing their tails. What? You country bumpkins have been staying in a small place for too long, and now you want to embarrass yourself at the elite competition?"
Everyone turned around immediately after hearing this.
They realized that the one who was talking about them was the bastard from over a year ago, Ye Zhiqiu.
He was accompanied by students from Canghui Academy. Not only did they wear uniforms that looked like jewels, but they also didn't even look at people squarely.
"What the hell do you mean, bastard!?"
"Humph! You uneducated dogs actually ran out here barking and shouting at will, and you don't know how to respect your elders."
Ma Hongjun, who was already a little angry, was furious after hearing Ye Zhiqiu's words and comparing the Canghui Academy uniforms with Flanders' design.
Just as they were about to attack, Oscar stopped them. "You're still respecting your elders? Fatty just called you a bastard, and you didn't deny it. We're both grandparents, so who's the elder now? Tell me."
Oscar's words made the four girls on Shrek's side blush instantly, and they looked at Oscar as if he were dead. As for the boys like Xuan Mo, they were so happy that they felt they were two generations older than him.
"Brother Mo, how come that bitch Ao is so eloquent?"
Xuan Mo was slightly stunned after hearing what Ma Hongjun said. "I don't know about that, but..."
"Oh, Xiao Ao is looking for a girlfriend."
Dai Mubai's voice suddenly rang in his ears, and he raised his eyebrows.
"Xiao Ao is looking for a girlfriend, so I told him that if he wanted to pursue a girl, he had to be eloquent first. So Xiao Ao has been busy these past few months."
"Dai Mubai, it seems you are very experienced."
"Of course. Back then, as Old Mo said, I was a sea king. I... uh, Zhuqing, listen to me..."
Dai Mubai answered subconsciously, and then he realized that it was Zhu Zhuqing, with a cold face, standing behind him. He hurried forward to admit his mistake, and Xuan Mo was also stared at closely by Ning Rongrong.
Seeing the expression on Ning Rongrong's face, Xuan Mo cursed inwardly, "Damn Dai Mubai, why drag me into this! Just wait, I'll kill you."
Seeing the Shrek group essentially ignoring them, Ye Zhiqiu and the Canghui Academy students were furious. But just then, a powerful voice rang out, "What are you doing?"
An old man approached and gave Xuan Mo and the others a cold look. With that glance, a surge of spiritual power swept over the Shrek group.
At that moment, everyone on Shrek, including Xuan Mo, felt as if the world had warped, waves of spiritual power assaulting their brains.
"Hmph!" The Fire Dragon King snorted in Xuan Mo's mind at the incoming spiritual energy. But just as he was about to strike, the outside world shifted.
"Shi Nian, you're really getting older and older."
Suddenly, a piece of paper flew out from the hands of a sarcastic Flanders, directly covering Xuan Mo and the others. Then, with its powerful soul power, it directly broke Shi Nian's mental strength.
"It's been a long time since we last met..."
