Dai Mubai returned quickly, nodded to Flander, and indicated that he had sent Oscar to comfort Ning Rongrong.

Flanders waved and said, "Let's go. Follow me."

After saying that, he lightly leaped out of the academy, his toes barely touching the ground, heading towards the outside of the academy.

The others hurriedly followed.

Flander maintained a remarkably fast pace throughout, at which point the difference in strength between the five trainees became apparent.

Following closely behind Flander was Dai Mubai, the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, whose soul power was the most profound. Behind Dai Mubai was not Tang San, but Zhu Zhuqing.

Tang San's Ghost Shadow Phantom is superior in its subtlety; however, in terms of straight-line acceleration, it's inferior to Zhu Zhuqing, a speed-type Soul Master. Therefore, he and Xiao Wu are tied for third place. Ma Hongjun is last, but not far behind Tang San.

Flander didn't say a word the whole way, and neither did Tang San and the others. They were still replaying the conversation between Flander and Ning Rongrong in their minds.

Soon, Tang San discovered that Flander's destination was Soto City.

The journey from Shrek Academy to Soto City wasn't far, and Flander only slowed down when they were almost at the south gate of Soto City, letting all five students catch up.

Soto City is located within the Kingdom of Barak and is not threatened by any external forces, so its city gates are open 24/7. The group of six entered the city without incident.

Although it was already dark, Soto City seemed to have just woken up, even more bustling than during the day. All the shops on both sides of the street were brightly lit, and small vendors who only came out to work at night had found their favorite spots to sell snacks or trinkets.

Although Tang San and Xiao Wu stayed in Soto City for two days, they didn't go out at night. Tang San was a little better off, but Xiao Wu looked around with great interest, and whenever she saw something interesting, she would quietly peek closer to take a closer look. If Tang San hadn't been holding her hand the whole time, she might have gotten lost.

Zhu Zhuqing remained cold and aloof, as if everything outside had nothing to do with her. Her gaze remained fixed on Flander in front of her, unaffected by the outside world.

Dai Mubai's lowered eyelids revealed his composure, and he looked almost exactly like Zhu Zhuqing, except that his face lacked that icy demeanor, and everything he did seemed very natural.

Ma Hongjun's eyes, however, were not enough to keep up. Although he wasn't as interested in everything as Xiao Wu, his eyes darted around, always targeting the most distinctive features of the women on the street.

From six-year-olds to sixty-year-olds, Ma Hongjun's eyes darted around, and he would immediately drool over anyone with a fuller figure. Luckily, he was at the back of the group, so the others didn't notice his appearance.

Flanders suddenly stopped, looked at the sky, and muttered to himself, "There's still some time. Follow me."

With that, Flander led the five men into an inconspicuous teahouse by the street. The six men sat down around a round table, and Flander ordered six cups of the cheapest tea.

Xiao Wu frowned as she looked at the tea covered in tea leaves. "Dean, is our first lesson going to be here?"

Flanders said, "Of course not, your classroom is over there." As he spoke, he pointed outside.

Following the direction of his finger, Tang San saw a large cluster of tall buildings not far from the teahouse. From their angle, they could only see that the buildings were nearly a hundred meters high, enormous and appearing extremely deep in the night. Faint lights shimmered from within those massive buildings.

Dai Mubai's expression changed, and he whispered, "Dean, are we sending them there on their first day?"

Flander said calmly, "Remember, you are all monsters, not ordinary people. Since you are monsters, you must have monster-like cultivation methods."

He paused, then said in a deep voice, "Your martial souls are all different, and each of you has your own cultivation methods. What the academy can teach you is how to better utilize your martial souls, help you obtain better spirit rings, gain more practical combat experience, and develop your potential as much as possible. The rest is knowledge about various aspects of martial souls, as well as the situation of spirit masters on the continent. Of all these things you need to learn, the most important is practical combat experience."

"With the same level and strength, the amount of practical experience will determine the key to victory or defeat. Only through constant practice can you improve your adaptability in battle as much as possible. Therefore, your first lesson is practical combat. And that place is your classroom."

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun exchanged a glance. Ma Hongjun didn't dare to utter a sound, while Dai Mubai's wicked eyes revealed helplessness. They clearly both knew what kind of place it was. Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the icy Zhu Zhuqing all showed expressions of confusion.

Flander explained, "Only cities at the main city level can possess buildings like this. Their scale is a symbol of a city's, or even a nation's, strength. Such buildings are called Grand Arenas, and they are named after the city they are located in. Therefore, the one before you is called the Soto Grand Arena."

"The so-called Great Soul Arena is the place where martial souls are fought, that is, where soul masters battle. Whether it is the Heaven Dou Empire or the Star Luo Empire, there is a saying that the Soul Arena determines the rise and fall of a country."

Tang San frowned and said, "Dean, aren't Soul Masters the noblest profession? Why are there places like the Great Soul Arena? What's the point of putting people through a monkey show with these Soul Battles?"
