Lu Mingfei starts from Douluo

Chapter 120 Capacity

In the reception hall, everyone had different expressions, and Flander's brows were so furrowed that they looked like they were about to burst with water, and his face was terribly ugly.

No one has spoken since then. The atmosphere is as oppressive as a high-temperature sauna in a volcano's crater. Staying inside would suffocate you, and going outside would burn you to death.

Fair competition, survival of the fittest.

There's nothing wrong with that statement from any angle.

Since the goal is to win honor for the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, the strongest members should be selected to form the strongest team to participate in the competition.

The three education commissioners remained silent. Whether as subjects of the Heavenly Dou Empire or as supervisors and administrators of the academy, they could not possibly voice their opposition.

This is the master's plan. Now that he has joined the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to participate in the competition, why can't he go further and try to win the championship?

Admittedly, the Shrek Seven Devils are all exceptionally talented, but they are still too inexperienced. If they participate in the next competition, they will naturally have the potential to win the championship, but in this competition, they might not even make it to the preliminaries.

However, if we could get a few members from the Tian Dou team to join, the championship would be a sure thing.

Lu Mingfei, Yu Tianheng, and Dugu Yan—this is Grandmaster's goal: to have these three join Tang San's team. Not only would they be able to win the championship, but it would also be a great opportunity to improve and strengthen the relationship between the two sides.

Lu Mingfei is indeed the number one genius on the continent. He is the eldest grandson of the Jade Sky Everlasting Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and Dugu Yan is the only granddaughter of the Azure Phosphorus Douluo. In addition, there is Ning Rongrong, the young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, as well as Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, the future Star Luo Empress.

This team, which brings together the power of the three upper sects and two great empires, is practically perfect, and will be the greatest help to Tang San in overthrowing the Spirit Hall in the future.

This was a consensus reached between the Grandmaster and Tang Hao after the Battle of Soto City: to strive for all available resources.

As for Oscar and Ma Hongjun, I can only apologize and say they'll be substitutes.

"I disagree!" Flander hadn't expected that the master and Tang Hao would not only destroy his Shrek Academy, but also his students.

"Flander, calm down. I know you think I'm trying to dismantle Shrek, but this is actually giving them enough options," the Grandmaster said in a deep voice. "Just because they're not on the same team, does that mean they're no longer classmates and brothers?"

"Just because I achieved honors on my own, would you feel that I abandoned you, want to break off our friendship, or even resent me?"

Flander was speechless and slumped back into his seat. The master was right. Brother, are you going to break off our friendship just because we didn't form a team in a major competition?

Isn't it a friend's duty to not hold his brother back?

However, he still found it hard to accept, feeling that his students were suddenly being so blatantly objectified and abandoned.

"You can turn around and ask them what they think. If their friends can achieve greater honors, why wouldn't they support them?" The master said in a tone that seemed to be thinking of Shrek's best interests.

Because Flanders was too sentimental, he didn't tell Flanders about this beforehand.

However, to some extent, he and Flander share the same goal: to give Shrek Academy students a better future.

The only ones I feel slightly sorry for are Oscar and Ma Hongjun. They will also gain the brotherhood of the top forces in the mainland in the future. Why not?

In the master's view, this is an absolutely win-win situation.

Flander glanced back. Ma Hongjun was carefree and didn't care. Only Oscar showed a slight wry smile. As for the others, their expressions were normal, and they obviously had no objections.

Lu Mingfei was completely numb. The master's explanation was simply irrefutable, but the thought of teaming up with Tang San gave him goosebumps all over.

The scene fell silent again, but this time it wasn't tense but deadly. The three education commissioners stared at each other, wide-eyed. The master's performance was over, and it seemed it was their turn to give concluding remarks.

Are the three education commissioners available?

But just then, a loud voice, clearly tinged with laughter, suddenly came from the doorway, "Remember our domain name: [domain name omitted], you can read exciting content anytime." This slightly eased the eerie atmosphere.

Meng Shenji swore that this was the first time he had ever felt that Prince Xuexing's voice was so kind and approachable.

The two education committee members and Xue Qinghe also stood up and went forward to welcome his arrival.

"Uncle Wang."

"Your Highness, what brings you here?" Meng Shenji stepped forward and bowed slightly.

"Qinghe, so you're here too. I accompanied Mr. Dugu Bo to pick up his granddaughter. I heard that Shrek Academy, which my brother highly recommended, is located here, so I came to take a look on the way."

Xue Xing stood with his hands behind his back. He didn't know about Tang Hao, only that this Shrek Academy had been specially chosen by Xue Ye and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Naturally, he wanted to come and find out the background of this mysterious Shrek Academy.

"The teachers and students of Shrek Academy are in the hall. It's perfect timing. We're discussing some academy affairs that are related to Dugu Yan. It's good that His Highness the Prince, as the person in charge of the academy, and His Majesty the Poison Douluo can come in and listen."

Meng Shenji is now hoping that Xue Xing will take the blame for being heartless.

Upon entering, the Shrek Academy members bowed. They had already heard what Meng Shenji had said: the Imperial Prince and the infamous Poison Douluo. They had to respect them in terms of both status and strength.

When Lu Mingfei saw that even Dugu Bo and Xue Xing had come to join in the fun, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of show was going on today.

Are we like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying their unique abilities?

As soon as Xue Xing and Dugu Bo sat down, Meng Shenji introduced the master's suggestion: to reorganize the teams based on their strength, and to form a new team with the strongest members to guarantee a spot in the finals.

Dugu Bo and Xue Xing exchanged a glance. This suggestion seemed perfectly reasonable. Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan were about to break through to the Soul Master level, so there was no way they would be eliminated. Changing teammates wouldn't make much difference.

Or perhaps it would be better to let Dugu Yan come into contact with these people, at least to bring her closer to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"This master's suggestion is certainly valid. Choosing the winner to fight is only natural. As for the issue of team cohesion, there's still over a year, which is more than enough time." Xue Xing cleared her throat and spoke slowly. "I presume the three education committee members have no objections?"

"His Highness is in charge of the academy, so we naturally have no objections." Meng Shenji nodded.

Seeing that everything had settled, the master's gaze drifted to Lu Mingfei. He had missed the chance to become Lu Mingfei's apprentice back then, but now, as the team leader, he could make up for that regret.

"Uncle Wang, three education commissioners, please wait a moment." Xue Qinghe suddenly spoke up, "Shouldn't we ask the parties involved for their opinions on this matter? Forcing a team together might lead to disagreements within the team, making things much less efficient."

The master frowned imperceptibly, not understanding why Xue Qinghe had to interfere.

"That's how it should be." Meng Shenji hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"It just so happens that Brother Lu is here. He's a key player in the competition. Why don't we ask for his opinion first?" Xue Qinghe smiled and looked at Lu Mingfei.

Lu Mingfei remained silent for a moment in the face of everyone's gaze.

He remembered that Xue Qinghe had asked him to back him up earlier. Did he intend for him to refuse the offer from the start? But wasn't Xue Qinghe trying to win over Tang Hao?

"When I choose teammates, I never care about their strength, because none of them can compare to my strength anyway." Lu Mingfei slowly walked to the center of the reception hall and said calmly, "So I only care about one thing."

"tolerance!"

Without warning, Lu Mingfei activated his Golden Eyes, and a heavy mental pressure suddenly enveloped everyone.

A magnificent two-handed greatsword quickly materialized in Lu Mingfei's right hand and then plunged straight into the floor of the hall.

In an instant, everyone could feel a bone-chilling cold suddenly erupt.

"I don't want them to complain that I didn't give them a chance to prove themselves after I lead them to victory!"

"So, if any Shrek student can pull out this sword within an hour, I will accept him as my teammate."

"After all, I absolutely hate childish people!"
