Chapter 65 Before the game
With the arrival of Shrek Academy, the registration ceremony for the competition officially ended, and each academy formally held a pre-war mobilization meeting.

It was called a pre-war mobilization, but it was more of a discussion about the opponents they might encounter, and most teams were praying that they would not encounter Shrek Academy, Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Xingluo National Academy, Di'ao Academy and other seed academies and be eliminated in the first round.

Because the first round of the competition is a knockout match, and it is a team battle, as long as you lose a round of competition, you will be eliminated directly.

Only a few seeded teams discussed the members of other teams and conducted pre-match analysis.

The Sun-Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, which has always taken second place in the competition, was also in the discussion at this moment, but the only object of their discussion was Shrek Academy.

On the top floor of the Starlight Hotel, in the exclusive conference room of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy, Jing Hongchen, who was sitting at the first seat, had a solemn expression on his face.

His eyes occasionally swept over Wang Lin, who was flipping through a booklet below, as if he wanted to see something from his expression.

The old man on the left of Jing Hongchen had a straight nose, square mouth, dignified appearance, and a face as red as a date. He lowered his steady eyes and spoke in a deep voice.

“This time, the Shrek Academy team only has ten people, and only three of them are over fifteen years old, while the other seven are under fifteen years old.

And only two of those three were members of the reserve team from the previous tournament.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the man on Jing Hongchen's right, who had a whisker and short white hair and was also tall, slammed the table and said.

"This is contempt. This is Shrek Academy looking down on our Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy!"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the members were immediately filled with indignation. Wang Lin flipped through the official booklet with the rules of the competition in his hand, and when he heard the word "contempt", he shook his head.

What contempt? Shrek Academy has made good arrangements. Even the candidates for the pre-match trial team members are those with the cultivation level of Soul King, just in case there are any accidents with high cultivation level.

But who could have thought that Xuanzi was so powerful that he led his team to lose lives.

Jing Hongchen, who kept scanning Wang Lin, saw Wang Lin's little movements and thought to himself: It was indeed done by the Holy Spirit Church. The Holy Spirit Church actually dared to attack!
Thinking of this, Jing Hongchen pondered the significance of the Holy Spirit Church's move, and suddenly his eyes caught a glimpse of Meng Hongchen who was sitting in a daze in the audience.

Could it be for his granddaughter?

Jing Hongchen felt a chill in his heart when he realized this. Damn it, the more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed.

First, there was the hint Zhang Peng gave Wang Lin when he entered the academy. Then, the soul motivation paper did not look like something that Wang Lin, a novice who had never studied soul guides, could have produced.

Wang Lin, who did not report to the academy at the beginning of the school year, suddenly appeared in Xingluo City and gave him complete information about the Shrek Academy team members.

Jing Hongchen went to see the Shrek Academy team today, and the information matched the information given by Wang Lin.

Shrek Academy should not have sent out such a team, and although the three members over the age of fifteen hid well, Jing Hongchen could still see that they were injured.

Apart from the people from the Holy Spirit Church, Jing Hongchen couldn't think of anyone else who would dare and be able to attack the members of Shrek Academy.

With all these factors combined, Jing Hongchen realized a terrible fact: the Holy Spirit Church might not just be interested in his granddaughter, but the entire Hongchen family.

If he guessed correctly, Wang Lin would definitely take out something helpful to his grandson or granddaughter.

Damn Holy Spirit Church!

Thinking of this, Jing Hongchen's eyes looking at Wang Lin became sharper and sharper. His Hongchen family must not have any necessary contact with the evil soul master. Wang Lin was a little scared by being looked at, and immediately raised his head. Jing Hongchen also retracted his gaze at this time. Wang Lin looked at Jing Hongchen suspiciously, but didn't think much about it.

He didn't know that Jing Hongchen had already figured out a complete evil plan for the Holy Spirit Church to deal with the Hongchen family.

At this time, the old man with a beard slammed the table again and said, "Ma Rulong, if we lose to a team like Shrek Academy in this competition, you, the captain, will have to get out of Mingde Hall."

"Yes!" Ma Rulong, who looked 30% like the old man, stood up and said loudly.

Xiao Hongchen, who was sitting next to Wang Lin and opposite Ma Rulong, had a contemptuous smile on his face. Just as he was about to say something nonsense, Wang Lin grabbed his shoulder.

"Don't talk nonsense, Xiaoxiao, just listen carefully!"

Wang Lin's voice rang in Xiao Hongchen's ears. Xiao Hongchen was about to speak when he found that he seemed to be the only one who heard Wang Lin's voice.

"Forcing the sound into a line is a little trick that I have developed recently." Wang Lin looked at Xiao Hongchen's puzzled expression and explained in his ear.

But Xiao Hongchen's face was still confused, he didn't even see Wang Lin speak.

"The child is probably stupid. My skin is just a disguise. How can you be sure that I opened my mouth to speak?" Wang Lin saw Xiao Hongchen's confusion again and explained again.

Regardless of Xiao Hongchen's angry expression, Wang Lin continued: "If you want to say that Shrek Academy may have encountered an accident, then don't say it. Mr. Ma is not a fool. Why can't Mr. Ma think of what you think of? He said that to boost morale."

Xiao Hongchen was stunned when his thoughts were revealed. Wang Lin's voice sounded again: "Don't let pride blind your eyes. Experience and knowledge are not innate. You have to stand at the highest point and let the world see your talent."

When Xiao Hongchen heard the words "You must stand at the highest point and let the world see your talent," his eyes immediately lit up. Isn't this exactly what he is pursuing!
Wang Lin noticed the change in Xiao Hongchen's expression. As expected, he had to give this kid some chicken soup. At the age of fourteen or fifteen, chicken soup is still useful.

"Please sit down. Now let's start arranging the first round of players." The old man with a beard was Mr. Ma, who spoke.

Ma Rulong nodded and sat down. Ma began to arrange the personnel for tomorrow's performance. Wang Lin did not participate. He did not understand and continued to look at the booklet in his hand seriously.

……

……

……

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone into Xingluo City, Wang Lin got up early, changed into Yanzu's appearance, and rushed to Xingluo Square.

All the streets around Xingluo Square were blocked by soldiers in distinctive armor, especially near Xinghuang Hotel, where there were thousands of soldiers stationed. The streets leading to Xingluo Square were under complete martial law.

With the certificate, Wang Lin easily passed through the blockade of soldiers and entered the team of Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. As the team leader, Wang Lin naturally walked with Jing Hongchen and the others.

As the team that has always been in second place, the only one that can rank ahead of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy is Shrek Academy.

Not only Wang Lin, all the members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy team, including the leading teacher, were looking at the members of Shrek Academy in front of them.

As if noticing the gazes behind them, the members of Shrek Academy in front of them couldn't help but straighten their backs.
