Chapter 905 Shrek High-Level Meeting
Then I'll figure out a way to find the third and fourth spirit rings for my Overlord Spear.
Although the two rings are strong, they have already imposed some limitations on themselves.
As the enemies they faced grew stronger, even Tang Lan began to crave greater power.
"From now on, you will live in one of the courtyards on the west side of the inner courtyard!"
"If you have any problems, feel free to come to us for help."
Before Tang Lan and her group even entered the room, they could hear Yan Shaozhe's voice from inside.
Not long after, the door opened and a group of people came out.
The first thing Tang Lan saw were the three level-nine soul masters from the Sun Moon Empire, and behind them was a group of twenty students.
After seeing Tang Lan and the others, these people merely glanced at them before raising their heads and continuing to walk forward.
It seems they didn't take Tang Lan and the others seriously at all.
Only the man standing at the very front and center gave Tang Lan a deep look, but only for a moment before turning away without leaving a trace.
"Hmph, daring to act arrogantly on our turf, these guys are really stupid. They better not come and mess with me, or they'll be sorry."
Seeing this, Ma Xiaotao was furious and glared at their backs, saying fiercely.
Tang Lan simply touched her nose, thankful that she had tamed Ma Xiaotao, this wild horse, beforehand.
If he hadn't been able to cure Ma Xiaotao and moved her to the point of offering herself to him, this girl probably wouldn't have paid any attention to him at all.
Ma Xiaotao is a principled person who dares to love and hate, but she is also a nightmare for those speculators.
"Oh? You're here! Perfect timing, we need to have a meeting soon."
"Little ones, please take your seats!"
Yan Shaozhe gave Xian Lin'er a brief greeting, then took his seat at the head of the table and began the meeting.
The exchange program between Shrek Academy and the Royal Academy of the Sun Moon Empire has officially begun.
"You have all seen the twenty students and three level-nine instructors from the Sun Moon Empire!"
"This time, we can also send twenty inner court students to the Sun Moon Empire Royal Academy."
"However, due to the limited number of students in the Soul Guidance Department, only ten students have been sent so far."
Therefore, if any of you wish to attend the Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Master Academy, you may apply to me within the next year.
"As for the inner disciples who remain, we must try our best to avoid conflicts with them and reduce unnecessary troubles."
As Yan Shaozhe finished speaking, a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
There was one more thing he didn't say, and no more than five people present would understand it.
The following events were mostly trivial matters concerning the inner courtyard, which made Tang Lan drowsy and provided absolutely no insight into them.
After more than half an hour, Yan Shaozhe finally spoke, "Alright, that's all for the inner courtyard. Little ones, you can leave for now. Tang Lan will stay."
Tang Lan remained calm as she watched the sparse group of people leaving the conference room.
Tang Ya, Jiang Nannan, and Ma Xiaotao all glanced at Tang Lan with reluctance before leaving one after another.
Soon, the hall fell silent.
Besides Tang Lan, only four deans remain: Yan Shaozhe, Cai Meier, Xian Liner, and Qian Duoduo.
But soon, Tang Lan saw several familiar faces walk in through the door.
It was the group of elders from the Sea God Pavilion, including Elder Xuan, Elder Lin, and seven others. Mu En still didn't see them, presumably they were still in seclusion.
"Elder Xuan, I'll leave the rest to you!"
Yan Shaozhe was well aware that he was the lowest in seniority among these old guys.
He immediately relinquished the main position to Taotie Douluo Xuanlao.
Tang Lan knew that what had happened before was just going through the motions, but this meeting was the real beginning.
"I think everyone here already knows the general situation!"
"Several major empires are eyeing us covetously and have already begun to show hostility towards Shrek Academy. There have even been several clashes between them."
"Our strength in Shrek City has caused them unease, and this meeting will discuss this matter."
"According to Junior Sister Xia's prediction, these major empires will launch an operation against Shrek City within three years, and it will inevitably be a swift and powerful attack."
"We need to make initial preparations and countermeasures for the impending danger. Now, let's hear your thoughts."
The latest novel is first published here!
Elder Xuan gave a brief account of the troubles that Shrek Academy and even Shrek City had encountered, then looked up at the people at the conference table.
There were twelve people on the field, all of whom, except for Tang Lan, were deans or higher-ranking figures from Shrek Academy.
Tang Lan scanned the expressions of everyone present, but didn't notice anything, and didn't intend to step forward and express her opinion.
After a brief silence, Tang Lan soon saw an elder stand up.
This person's name is Lü Wei, and his martial soul is the Purgatory Demon Ape. Although it is a mutated martial soul, it is undoubtedly a top-tier martial soul.
Then Lu Wei said, "If this matter drags on until the end, Shrek City will undoubtedly be attacked by all the major forces."
"Just because of this uncertainty, no matter which side we take, the other side will be at a disadvantage."
"Because of Shrek Academy, we have quelled many conflicts between the major empires over the years and played a great restraining role, but we have also become the target of everyone's criticism."
"I think Shrek Academy, and even Shrek City, should take proactive measures instead of waiting for problems to arise before reacting, by which time it will be too late."
Lu Wei's statement was roughly the same as Tang Lan and Yan Shaozhe's thoughts.
However, no sooner had these words been spoken than the other Grand Secretary expressed a different opinion.
"This crisis seems to be no different from previous years. Shrek City only needs to establish a deep friendship with a certain empire to resolve this crisis."
"Taking measures against the major empires without authorization will only strengthen their vigilance against us."
"It is better to use strategy than force to solve problems. We should still adopt the plan of forming alliances and checking each other, and we are the thread connecting the major empires."
The person who spoke was named He Cai'er, and she looked like a woman in her forties.
But those who know He Cai'er know that she is from the same era as Elder Xuan and Elder Lin.
It was only because of the effects of his martial soul, the Ice Heart Begonia, that this senior's appearance remained unchanged.
Ice Heart Begonia is a mutated martial soul with an extremely high rank, making it one of the rare support-type martial soul elders among the higher-ups of Shrek Academy.
But this old man was a staunch conservative who had no desire to push things to the extreme and was unwilling to go to war with other empires.
"He Cai'er, are you scared? Don't forget, your wretched grandson was ambushed and severely injured by a Soul Master from the Douling Empire while training outside." (End of Chapter)
