Chapter 1308: Legend?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Long Yue was dressed in a gray tracksuit. His entire body was brimming with potency. A few years had passed but he had not changed much except for having a more stable temperament now.
The Shrek Seven Monsters were familiar with Long Yue as he and Dai Yun’er had at one time visited Shrek Academy. Due to their past grievances, they rarely kept in touch except for the occasional encounter now and then.
The person walking by Long Yue’s side was not the Tiger King Dai Yueyan who was ranked second among the Eight Heavenly Kings but a woman of elegance. She was dressed in a tracksuit of the same design as Long Yue’s. Her eyes brimmed with a radiating vigor while her hair was tied into a ponytail. Her gaze was filled with excitement.
At present, the Shrek Six Monsters were already on the competition stage. When the woman saw them, she leaped up instantly and mounted the competition stage. She then dashed over in a few quick strides.
Her action immediately resulted in the audience screaming out in surprise.
The competition had yet to begin. Could it be that the Heavenly Kings Clan from the Monster Academy wished to take the lead in the sparring session?
On the other hand, the Shrek Six Monsters on stage did not have the slightest intention to strike the first blow. Instead, the six walked over excitedly upon seeing the woman.
“You’re all still alive. That’s truly wonderful.” The woman hugged Xu Xiaoyan with tears streaming down her eyes. She sobbed silently.
“Senior,” the six people called out simultaneously.
The elegant woman was precisely Shrek Academy’s inner court disciple, Xu Mi’er. Xu Mi’er and Long Yue had fallen in love at first sight during the Sea God Lake Date Festival.
When Long Yue accompanied Dai Yun’er back to the Star Luo Empire, Xu Mi’er made a prompt decision to follow along with Long Yue. Their relationship had been confirmed since earlier. As the Douluo Continent was separated by vast oceans, it was difficult for Xu Mi’er’s family to come visit. Hence, they did not hold their wedding ceremony yet.
In any case, Xu Mi’er was already known as Mrs. Long in the Monster Academy. At present, she was a teacher in the Monster Academy where she mainly taught mecha operating skills.
It had been a long time since Xu Mi’er felt joyful. Ever since she learned of the attack against Shrek Academy, she was usually morose. She wished to return very much, but she could not leave Long Yue either. Initially, Long Yue had promised to accompany her to return to the Douluo Continent. However, with the Federation preparing to wage war, it was not a good time to leave. As a result, their plan was delayed.
When Xu Mi’er learned that the Shrek Seven Monsters were still alive, she could not have been any happier. She had a load of questions to ask, only that it was not appropriate to do so for the time being.
Xu Xiaoyan, Ye Xinglan, and Yuanen Yehui came forward to hug Xu Mi’er in succession. They were good friends during their student days in the academy.
“Apart from all of you, is…” asked Xu Mi’er while sobbing.
“Senior, many people are still alive. Our seniors and juniors from the inner court are still alive. Only that the teachers…” At this point, the Shrek Six Monsters’ eyes inadvertently turned red.
While they were chatting away, the group from the Heavenly Kings Clan were already on the other side of the gymnasium.
The Tiger King Dai Yueyan stood behind Long Yue, followed by the Fox King Su Mu, the Wolf King Hua Lantang, the Wind King Lin San, the Pagoda King Ye Zhi, and the Shadow King Teng Teng. The person at the rearmost was none other than the Spirit King Dai Yun’er.
In reality, the Eight Heavenly Kings had disbanded since their graduation. Although they would frequently come together for meals, today’s reunion to fight against their opponents was a first in many years.
It was apparent that the audience were attracted to their presence far more than Xu Mi’er. The raucous cheers were heard once again after the momentary interruption caused by Xu Mi’er’s action.
Led by Long Yue, the Eight Heavenly Kings each raised their hands to greet the audience.
The loud, whooping cheers from the audience came in waves and soon turned into a synchronised sound.
“Legend, legend, legend!”
Yes, they were the legends of the Monster Academy. They were the legendary and powerful combat clan in the history of the Monster Academy.
Despite being in the Tang Sect and the fact that most of the crowd were not from the Monster Academy, shouts of ‘legend’ were heard the moment they appeared on the competition stage.
Teng Teng found it difficult to control his emotions. “They still remember us. Do you hear that? They still remember us.”
“Yes, we’ve always been here.” Hua Lantang clenched his fists tightly.
The Fox King Su Mu closed his eyes to bask in the cheers echoing in his ears. At the same time, the blood inside his body was boiling and churning.
Ye Zhi held Hua Lantang’s hand. Her red lips were pursed tightly. “We can’t lose. We must win for them.”
Long Yue raised his hands to make a ‘pause’ gesture on the stage. Only then did the tremendous cheers gradually die down. Soon after, his deep voice echoed through the entire scene, “Thank you for everyone’s support. We’re most grateful that all of you still remember us. Our Monster Academy’s Heavenly Kings Clan is reunited today for which we should thank our opponents. The Shrek Seven Monsters have always been the opponents who have our utmost respect. I hope that this will be an exciting competition for everyone. During the competition, please be silent so that the competition remains fair for all the participants. Thank you.”
He made a slight bow upon saying that and took the lead to walk toward the Shrek Six Monsters who were on the opposite side. A thunderous applause echoed throughout the entire scene in the next instant. Long Yue appeared stalwart under the deafening reception.
The rest of the Eight Heavenly Kings followed closely behind him. Dai Yun’er who was at the rear searched the crowd with her glimmering eyes. She could not find the silhouette that she had hoped to see. She was, thus, feeling a little disappointed.
She was not participating in the competition today. She was hoping to see the man. The man who had rejected her repeatedly. Also, the man whose tendons she wished to pull out and scalp. Yet, he was the same scoundrel whom she wished to be her partner.
Tang Wulin was not there for he was preparing for the Battle of Five Gods. Dai Yun’er felt a little worried when she thought of the Battle of Five Gods. However, she felt proud of Tang Wulin. He had proven to be the man whom she fell in love with. He did not flinch despite knowing the hardship that he was about to face soon.
As the saying goes, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder. In Dai Yun’er’s heart, Tang Wulin had already won the moment he consented to the Battle of Five Gods.
“He’s that cocky. Don’t mind him,” said Xu Mi’er with a smile. Nonetheless, when her gaze was upon Long Yue’s body, it was more than pride in her eyes.
She only understood the man’s mighty influence after coming to the Star Luo Empire. He was even known as the future of the Star Luo Empire’s soul masters’ world.
He had numerous intimate friends. Since the Monster Academy had a deep-rooted culture, he had Limit Douluo-ranked teachers by his side. Everything seemed perfect.
Long Yue had a limited outlook but a generous heart in reality. Xu Mi’er was hot-tempered, so she had outbursts of emotions frequently over small matters when they were living together. Long Yue had never quarrelled with her over the trifles. He remained patient and was tolerant of her behavior. On the other hand, Xu Mi’er was already used to having him by her side. He held an important role in the empire, so it was not possible for him to head over to the Douluo Federation under the present scenario. She appeared obstinate but was actually quite soft-hearted. She was being considerate as she chose to stay behind to accompany him.
The group from Monster Academy’s Heavenly Kings Clan arrived before the group from Shrek Academy. Yue Zhengyu took the lead to walk forward. “It’s been ages since we met.”
Long Yue stretched out his hand to shake Yue Zhengyu’s hand. “Yes, it’s been ages. I’m glad to see all of you are fine. I feel a little embarrassed to welcome you under these circumstances. However, everyone is finding it difficult to refrain themselves.”
