In the meeting room, Second Elder Tang Zhen sat at the head of the table. He looked over the spirited group of Sect Prodigies with a gentle gaze and a faint smile on his face.
He spoke slowly, "The current situation of the tournament is becoming clear, and the strength of each team has been partially revealed."
"Tell me, what are your thoughts regarding the upcoming matches and the other participating teams?"
Hearing this, Tang Tian, the leader of the Clear Sky Sect's Prodigies, curled his lips into a confident smile.
With a hint of arrogance in his tone, he responded loudly, "Second Elder, with our Clear Sky Sect's strength, why do we need to have many thoughts?"
"Looking across the entire arena, no team is our match. The championship is destined to be in the palm of our Clear Sky Sect!"
Beside him, Tang Di and Tang Ren exchanged glances and nodded one after another, their eyes filled with agreement for their eldest brother's words.
These three were a very rare set of triplets in the Clear Sky Sect and the core combat power of the Clear Sky Sect's participating team.
They were also the three Spirit Emperors in the team.
The three brothers had cultivated together since childhood and spent every moment together. Not only was each of their individual cultivation strengths incredibly powerful,
but their spirit ring ratios and Spirit control had also reached the Peak of Spirit Masters at the same level.
Even more rare was the mental connection between the three, their coordination reached the absolute limit of unspoken understanding.
As long as the three joined forces, they could perform a Combined Attack Technique.
Even if they faced a powerful Seventh Ring Soul Sage, they would have the power to fight and would certainly not fall into a disadvantage.
This was the greatest source of confidence that allowed the Clear Sky Sect members to look down on the entire field.
Seeing his Sect's Geniuses so full of confidence and showing their sharp edges, Tang Zhen only gave a helpless and doting smile, not speaking out to contradict them.
This was because the three brothers' strength was worthy of this confidence, and the Clear Sky Sect's foundation was sufficient to support their pride.
But as a Sect Elder, he had to provide reminders to prevent the young people from making mistakes due to excessive confidence.
Immediately, Tang Zhen restrained his smile, his tone becoming a bit more solemn as he earnestly cautioned:
"I have never doubted your strength. The Clear Sky Sect's reputation is by no means an empty title."
"But I must remind you: a lion uses its full strength even when hunting a rabbit. Even if an opponent seems weak, you must never let your guard down."
"Confidence is a good thing, but if it turns into arrogance, it becomes a disaster."
"The situation on the field changes in an instant. Do not let a moment of carelessness cause you to fail in an unexpected place."
"If you truly suffer a defeat, it will not only be your own loss but will also tarnish the reputation our Clear Sky Sect has inherited for ten thousand years!"
However, facing Tang Zhen's heartfelt reminder, the three Tang brothers still appeared indifferent, the conceit in their eyes not diminishing in the slightest.
In their understanding, with the strength of the three of them, no opponent in the entire tournament was worth their full effort.
They were invincible existences on the field, and no one could shake their position.
Seeing the three brothers' arrogant appearance of 'Heaven is first, Earth is second, and I am third,' Tang Zhen shook his head gently and ultimately said no more.
Because deep in Tang Zhen's heart, he actually shared the same thoughts as the three brothers.
In his heart, the Clear Sky Sect would always be the undisputed number one Sect in the world.
The Clear Sky Sect's foundation and strength were far beyond what other Sects could compare to.
If it weren't for the First and Second Sect Masters repeatedly ordering the Clear Sky Sect to act low-key,
Tang Zhen would have long ago led the Clear Sky Sect's experts to rejoin the Jianghu and sweep across the entire Spirit Master's world, letting everyone feel the Clear Sky Sect's supreme reputation once again.
Just then, Tang Zhen's gaze unintentionally swept over to Tang Wutong, who was sitting in the corner.
He saw the young girl's eyes slightly lowered, her brow lightly furrowed in a look of deep thought.
It was as if something was weighing on her mind, making her seem out of place with the relaxed and confident atmosphere of the others.
Tang Zhen's heart stirred, and he quickly softened his tone, asking gently, "Wutong, why are you so silent? Is there something on your mind?"
As Tang Zhen's voice fell, the other members of the Clear Sky Sect in the meeting room also stopped their conversations. Their gazes all turned toward the pensive Tang Wutong, their eyes full of concern.
As the current little princess of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Wutong possessed extraordinary talent and was deeply loved and valued by everyone in the Sect.
Pulled back from her thoughts by everyone's gaze, Tang Wutong slowly returned to her senses.
She blinked her eyes, a thin smile appearing on her face as she said softly, "It's nothing, I just suddenly thought of someone."
"Oh? Just who could it be that our Clear Sky Sect's little princess is so concerned about?" Tang Zhen became increasingly curious and couldn't help but press further.
Tang Wutong raised her eyes, her gaze calm. The handsome face of the youth named Xu Tianhao and his talent profile, which she had seen in the intelligence sent from Shrek Academy, involuntarily surfaced in her mind.
Without any evasion, she met everyone's gaze and spoke slowly, clearly uttering a name: "Xu Tianhao."
The moment the three words "Xu Tianhao" left Tang Wutong's mouth, the meeting room fell silent for a beat.
Then, everyone came to a sudden realization. The curiosity on their faces dissipated, replaced by a hint of understanding.
Shrek Academy and the Clear Sky Sect shared intelligence. Naturally, the Clear Sky Sect also knew the information regarding the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy's participating members.
It had to be said that the seven reserve members sent by the Sun Moon Empire this time were all geniuses with extraordinary talent.
And the most dazzling and eye-catching among them was undoubtedly Xu Tianhao.
A level fifty-nine cultivation at twelve years old was actually enough to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Tang Wutong, the Clear Sky Sect's premier Prodigy of this generation!
One must know that as a direct descendant of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Wutong had enjoyed the Sect's top-tier cultivation resources and most meticulous nurturing since childhood.
Combined with her own extraordinary natural talent, she had reached level fifty-nine at the age of twelve.
Her spirit ring ratio had even reached the top-tier configuration of two purple and three black, making her the pride of the entire Clear Sky Sect.
Yet the Sun Moon Empire—a power focused on spirit tool research that had never been highly regarded by traditional Spirit Masters—could actually Cultivate such an extraordinarily talented young Spirit Master.
He could even match Tang Wutong's talent, which truly felt inconceivable to the members of the Clear Sky Sect.
However, this surprise only lasted for a moment before being replaced by the disdain in everyone's eyes.
In their view, no matter how strong Xu Tianhao's talent was, he was still just a level fifty-nine Spirit King.
In front of the three Spirit Emperor brothers, Tang Tian, Tang Di, and Tang Ren, he remained powerless, no different from an ant.
When the time came to meet on the field, it would only take the three of them to act to easily defeat him, or even directly cripple his cultivation.
After all, no matter how stunning a Genius was, if they failed to grow up smoothly, they would ultimately be just a flash in the pan.
In the face of absolute strength, they were simply not worth mentioning.
Seeing Tang Wutong's calm expression when mentioning Xu Tianhao, Tang Tian raised an eyebrow and asked:
"Wutong, could it be that you have some other thoughts about this Xu Tianhao?"
