A small team of more than a dozen people, which did not look neat.

Although they marched in a queue at first, after walking for a while, they dispersed, and everyone found their better partners, and walked together in twos and threes.

Although it doesn't look decent, the distance between everyone is just a little maintained, and the shadow of the formation that can immediately rescue each other in case of trouble.

Xuan Lao didn't seem to care about any of this.

He didn't change into a suit like the kids because he went out of the house.

Still dressed in his dusty clothes, stained with slight oil stains, and covered with fashionable torn cloth shirts, with the gray hair like a chicken nest, plus the old drunkard who never left his body with wine gourds and chicken legs.

It can be said that it is very from the beginning.

"Teacher Wang, is Elder Xuan really your ancestor?" Wang Dong was bored for a while, and leaned over to Wang Yan and asked.

His face was full of curiosity, and his powder-blue eyes flickered, making people seem a little embarrassed to refuse any of his questions for a moment.

"yes, what's wrong?" Wang Yan remembered the helpless appearance of Xuan Lao when he first called "Master", and it was rare to have a bit of banter on his face, "It's just that Xuan Lao feels that calling him Master Ancestor calls everyone old, so he rarely shouts." ”

"To be honest, it's hard to imagine that Xuan Lao's casual temperament can cultivate an academic 'madness' like you." Wang Dong stuck out his tongue and replied with a grin.

Academics.

Wang Yan smiled mildly and accepted the title calmly.

He even had the energy to think about whether he should work harder when he returned to the academy after the competition in order to be worthy of the praise of the children.

In academic research.

It's different from the silence when you get a cold shoulder in front of the main selection team.

In front of these little guys in the reserve team, especially the four little ones, Wang Yan's not strong strength does not seem to be an obstacle to communication between the two sides.

Respect, understanding, support.

In fact, with the exception of his teacher, his ancestors, and a very small number of friends, he rarely felt these emotions without any disdain from others.

This filled his heart with ironing.

"Your teacher must be a very powerful person!" Xiao Xiao staggered to the other side of Wang Yan, raised his head sideways, and his eyes were full of the word longing.

"My teacher?" Wang Yan pondered for a moment, subconsciously raised his eyes and glanced at Xuan Lao, who was wandering in the outermost circle, and a slight gloom flashed in his always gentle eyes, but he immediately covered it up with a smile, "Teacher, he is indeed a brilliant person." ”

"If the teacher had the opportunity to meet you, he would be very happy."

When Xuan Lao heard this, he was about to bite the chicken leg in his mouth, but in the next second, he was slightly distracted, withdrew his hand, and his teeth bit a few times in the air, and he was a little lonely, chewed a few times at will, and swallowed the "chicken".

I didn't realize I was just chewing air.

Looks like a character with a story

Huo Yunche glanced at Xuan Lao, who was out of shape and didn't know it, and Wang Yan, who pretended to be okay but couldn't stop the melancholy drifting away, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little heavier.

It's just that there are too many people in Shrek Academy who have stories!

Cry chirp (_)!

Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao also noticed the subtle atmosphere, and glanced at each other a little helplessly, are they in trouble?

"Teacher Wang Yan, why did we leave so long in advance this time? From Shrek Academy to the capital of the Star Luo Empire, it shouldn't take so long, right? ”

Someone stepped up to break the deadlock.

Yes.

It's that they have something to do by themselves, and they have the pot to carry by themselves, cough cough, it's wrong, it's their good partner Huo Yuhao who adheres to the principle of sharing happiness and hardship, and standing up in a timely manner.

"Do you remember what Elder Xuan said before that the inner courtyard is not an honor, but a catastrophe of life and death?" Wang Yan also accepted the "olive branch" handed over by Huo Yuhao in a timely manner, and responded gently after collecting his emotions.

He never hesitated to answer, and the four little ones never failed to live up to his kindness.

"Yes." The four of them all pricked up their ears and waited intently for Wang Yan's explanation.

"Little Wang Yan." Xuan Lao's deep voice sounded.

Xuan Lao, who was still far away just now, just took a slight step and came behind Wang Yan, and his hand patted Wang Yan's shoulder lightly: "Let's talk about it." ”

"Yes, Xuan Lao." Wang Yan took a step back respectfully.

"Little ones, come here."

Xuan Lao beckoned, and a dull murderous aura seemed to suddenly appear in the air, and it disappeared in a flash, only Huo Yunche and the four of them at close range glanced at each other in a little fright.

"Boom-"

The birds and beasts frightened, and within a radius of a hundred miles, almost all living things fled out in a little panic under the pressure of this terrifying force.

Thankfully, this murderous intent was only for a brief expulsion, not a massacre, and only lasted for a moment before disappearing.

Xuan Lao's eyes swept indifferently from the fifteen little guys standing side by side in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "On our trip this time, in addition to participating in the Continent-wide Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition, we also have a very important task. ”

Task?

The eight members of the reserve team looked at each other, although they didn't know what the truth was, but they all chuckled in their hearts, and their eyes were also separated from the previous laughter, and they were a little more cold and steady.

After all, the task that can make Xuan Lao's expression become so serious is probably extraordinary. If they don't face it with a cautious attitude, they may even fall into a situation where they accidentally lose everything. Right?!

For a while, everyone's minds came up invariably - "The inner courtyard is not honor, but life and death." At the beginning, Xuan Lao's sentence was full of sorrow and painful advice.

The Shrek Seven Monsters and Wang Yan's eyes flowed, and they seemed to know what Xuan Lao was going to say, and they also understood what big things they were going to face next.

The seven of them rarely restrained all kinds of "rivalry" emotions on their faces, all of them were solemn, and vaguely, they seemed to be able to distinguish a trace of pride from their pupils, although they were the same, but they didn't know what words to use to describe the proud color.

It's as if they have the glory of Shrek.

Is it glorious?

Huo Yunche blinked, removing the deep thought in his eyes.

Xuan Lao looked at most of the still slightly immature faces in front of him, if the mainland was calm and stable, he didn't want these children to face these surging undercurrents so early, but he sighed secretly, and immediately hardened his heart again.

He asked with a straight face, "Do you know how many inner court disciples there are today?" ”
