Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San

Cheng Zicheng\'s brain went completely blank. The broad and warm embrace of the senior brother, his strong arms, and the unique scent of a man, all made her lose the ability to think.

Then she heard Wu Bingji\'s voice echoing in her ear, "Chengzi, don\'t say anything now. After the competition ends, after we win, then you can tell me. At that time, I\'ll listen to you slowly, there will be plenty of time for you to speak, okay?"

While speaking, Wu Bingji released his arms, looking at Cheng Zicheng with a smile, "Du Bai is right, now is not the time to be planting flags!"

Cheng Zicheng felt dizzy, her face flushing red. She stole a glance at Wu Bingji and then nodded vigorously, "Mm."

Wu Bingji turned to Tang San, smiling and said, "Tang San, do you have any instructions for us?"

Tang San smiled and said, "No. Today, I am the team captain."

As he spoke, Tang San stood up, his gaze sweeping over his four companions, his smile unwavering as he said, "Today, I will hold nothing back."

As soon as these words were uttered, the eyes of the four including Wu Bingji, nearly lit up at the same time.

They never truly knew how strong Tang San was, but his commitment to hold nothing back brought them greater confidence than any other words could.

Tang San extended his right hand, Wu Bingji placed his on top, then Cheng Zicheng, Du Bai, Gu Li. Five palms stacked together!

The smile on Tang San\'s face deepened, and he shouted out a phrase that, in his previous life, he had yelled countless times, a phrase that was branded deep in his soul.

He suddenly roared, "Shrek! Must win!"

"Shrek! Must win!" the five roared in unison.

Jiali City Grand Animal Fighting Arena.

Due to the overcrowding inside the Grand Animal Fighting Arena, the ticket inspection was deliberately started an hour earlier today to allow ticket holders to enter the arena earlier and ensure order.

The Grand Animal Fighting Arena was already packed, but today there were significantly fewer human spectators than in previous matches. Not because humans weren\'t willing to watch this most crucial battle, but because the tickets were simply too expensive. With the nobles driving the prices up, the number of humans who could afford tickets was incredibly rare.

Up in the stands, several teachers from Redemption Academy were present.

Mayor Zhang Haoxuan led the group, followed by Si Ru, Guan Longjiang, Mu Enqing, and Mu Yunyu.

With Zhang Haoxuan\'s current financial means, buying a ticket was no problem at all. Around them, there were about twenty human spectators. These were individuals who held certain statuses within the vassal races they were affiliated with. And this was the entirety of the human audience today.

Mu Yunyu clenched her fists nervously, her teeth biting her lower lip. She really wasn\'t sure what the outcome of today\'s fight would be. And all the news she had heard was unfavorable to this battle.

She had originally not dared to watch the match, but in the end, she still came. She couldn\'t let go of those kids.

Previously, Tang San and four others had gone missing; Zhang Haoxuan told them that they were undergoing special training. Despite initial skepticism from everyone, they had already secured nine consecutive victories.

As a part of Redemption Academy, the teachers were personally witnessing the humans within Jiali City becoming increasingly unified as never before. They were fervently hoping for the Shrek squad to continue their string of victories.

But the more it happened, the greater the pressure they felt. This battle was already historical for humanity. A battle for the title of nobility. However, if they lost, they would die on the battlefield. For Redemption Academy, that would be an undeniable loss.

Nobody questioned anymore why Zhang Haoxuan didn\'t stop them; any such questions had already been asked before they came.

Guan Longjiang had kept a cold demeanor; he hadn\'t spoke to Zhang Haoxuan for several days now.

Si Ru\'s expression, on the other hand, was relatively calm, sitting next to Zhang Haoxuan with a faint smile always on his face.

Mu Enqing took a deep breath, turned his head to Zhang Haoxuan and asked, "Mayor, are you really confident?" He ultimately couldn\'t help but ask.

Zhang Haoxuan glanced at him and said, "Even if we aren\'t sure, can we back out now?"

Mu Enqing\'s mouth twitched slightly. Yes! At this point, whatever was said was useless, both parties had already entered the arena, the battle was inevitable. Moreover, this was a genuine fight to the death!

"Let\'s just accept things as they come and stay calm. When have you ever seen Old Zhang take on something he wasn\'t sure of?" Si Ru said with a smile.

At these words, the other teachers\' moods relaxed a bit. Indeed, Zhang Haoxuan was known for his composure; otherwise, he wouldn\'t be the dean of Jiali Academy, but rather the more cultivated Si Ru.

Zhang Haoxuan remained silent, but internally he sneered, I can only be sure of things within my control and there is a youngster who has long been out of my grip! I only have confidence in him as a person.

The massive gates had already opened, and as they spoke, the contestants from both sides had already entered the Grand Animal Fighting Arena.

On the Shrek squad\'s side, Wu Bingji was leading the way as usual, with Tang San following him, then Gu Li, Du Bai, and Cheng Zicheng. They didn\'t change their formation just because Tang San had proclaimed himself as the captain today. The opponent had surely studied them, and any sudden changes would alert them.

When the gates on the opposite side slowly opened, revealing the five figures of their opponents, nearly all of the watching Monsters erupted into earth-shattering cheers.

Among the five Monsters opposite them, the one in the center was a burly man about two and a half meters tall, looking surprisingly similar to a human. His golden short hair rustled without wind, and his handsome face was firm, exuding coldness and bloodthirstiness. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes indicated he was no longer young, revealing traces of his age. His body was muscular and well-proportioned, and he held the hilt of a great sword planted in the ground in front of him, his slightly reddish gaze sweeping towards the Shrek squad.

Although they had already known his identity in advance, seeing him in person still sent a chill through the hearts of everyone on the Shrek squad, except for Tang San.

This man was indeed famous in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena. How to describe his reputation?

When Tang San had attended a major auction, he had seen a powerful Cyclops, a Ninth Stage peak powerhouse named Xu Xi, dubbed the Slaughter Mad Demon. Tang San had thought about challenging this daunting Cyclops someday, feeling a true aversion towards him. But Xu Xi was dead, yes, about a month ago, that arrogant Cyclops died. And the one who killed him in a one-on-one battle was the man before them.

He had no name, or at least he refused to disclose it. In the Grand Animal Fighting Arena, he was known by a nickname: the Lion Tiger Sword Saint!

Indeed, it was the Lion Tiger, with the golden bloodline of both the Golden Lion and the Golden Holy Tiger flowing within him. The golden bloodline of both the Lion and Tiger Clans manifested in one being.

His build didn\'t seem as robust as either the Golden Lion or the Golden Holy Tiger, but the explosive power contained within his body surpassed that of any single Race. Although he had not reached the peak of a First Level Bloodline, he was already at the zenith of a Level 2 Bloodline.
