Watching the two princesses leave, Zhang Lexuan snorted, "Dreaming of tying us together in daylight. Is the Sun Moon Empire foolish? The academy combined with the Tang Sect nearly brings together all the outstanding disciples of the younger generation. They may take the risk, but we certainly will not. Elder Xuan is right, everyone returning safely is what's most important."
Indeed, how many people came from Shrek Academy this time? The Shrek Seven Monsters representing the Tang Sect, plus Wang Qiu'er, Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu, Cao Jinxuan, and ten others—each one a young elite of the academy, all potential future Titled Douluos. And then there's Huo Yuhao, whom Master Mu designated as the successor over generations.
Shrek Academy is not a sect, nor a state, and would not risk the lives of its students for some goal. That is the biggest difference between them and the Xingluo Empire, the Sky Soul Empire, and the Body Sect in this regard.
