DD2—Chapter 55: Sea God Pavilion Cheating Meeting (Two in One)
Tang San once used the Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse to hold a snake called the Nine-Section Jadeite Snake.
Jing Hongchen said with a smile, "Of course, I have prepared some special storage soul guidance devices. These devices can store living things, similar to Tang San's Wishful Hundred Treasure Purse, the ancestor of the Tang Sect.
However, their internal space is too small, and they are difficult to manufacture.
Therefore, I can only try my best to select soul beasts that are smaller in size and weaker in strength. These soul beasts can be taken back, imprisoned, and then given to students to use.
In the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy, students at the Soul Ancestor level and below still make up the majority. They may need soul rings from the soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest; after all, the soul beast resources in the Sun-Moon Continent are too scarce."
Having said that, he shook his head with some emotion.
"Okay, Yuhao, I will help you get the soul ring now!" Jing Hongchen said.
"Okay, Dean." Huo Yuhao nodded. Since the soul guidance device that could store soul rings had not yet been invented, the only way Jing Hongchen could help Huo Yuhao obtain soul rings was to beat a silver jade snake to the point of near death.
At this moment, in Shrek Academy, Xuan Zi was standing by the Sea God Lake, drinking and enjoying the lake breeze. For him, good wine could satisfy his appetite.
But for him now, wine was just a tool to relieve his inner depression.
His voice was choked with sobs. "Ah, I feel sorry for those children. Chen Zifeng, Gong Yangmo, Yao Haoxuan, Dai Huabin, Xixi, you were all good children, but now you have all unfortunately passed away."
With each name he read, Xuan Zi's eyes became redder, and the grief-stricken expression on his face became more intense.
"Master Xuan, the academy has sent people to comfort the students' families, and you should take care of yourself." Yan Shaozhe, the dean of the Martial Soul Department, looked at Xuan Zi's appearance and couldn't help but sigh in his heart; Master Xuan looked sad this time.
Since he had met Master Xuan, the last time Master Xuan was so sad was when Zhang Lexuan's group of students was killed by a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, leaving only four alive.
Xuan Zi wiped away tears, his voice trembling, "Shaozhe, I didn't even kill the Death God Envoy. I didn't avenge the students; I just went back to find Wang Yan and the others. Do you think I, a level 98 Super Douluo, am particularly useless? I can't even kill a Soul King?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Shaozhe immediately shook his head and said, "Master Xuan, if I were you, I would make the same choice. Although, according to what you said, you only needed a short time to catch up with the opponent and then kill him.
However, for the safety of the survivors in the cave, returning even a few seconds later would be unbearable. Who knows if the evil soul master has any helpers? What if he does have helpers? Then the other people injured in the cave will be doomed, right?
So, I think that after experiencing this incident, you have become much more cautious than before, and you are worthy of being the famous Elder of the Sea God Pavilion!"
Yan Shaozhe originally wanted to say the nemesis of evil soul masters, but when he thought about it carefully, such words might irritate Master Xuan. You know, before setting off, Master Xuan had vowed that he was the nemesis of evil soul masters and could protect the safety of the students. However, in the end, Master Xuan was slapped in the face by his own words.
So Yan Shaozhe immediately changed the subject and called the other party the elder of the Sea God Pavilion.
Yan Shaozhe said, "Okay, Master Xuan, the teachers are here too. Let's go into the Sea God Pavilion now. Didn't you propose to hold a Sea God Pavilion meeting? As the initiator of this meeting, you must be present."
"Well, okay, let's go into the Sea God Pavilion." Xuan Zi flew towards the Sea God Pavilion.
After a while.
In the Sea God Pavilion, Mu En sat on the recliner, and because he was the master of the Sea God Pavilion, he sat in the first seat.
Xuan Zi looked at the elders and said, "Because I made a mistake in leading the team for the second time, an outstanding student of the academy died. This is not something I want to see.
However, I cannot shirk my responsibility for this matter, so I have decided to resign from the positions of deputy head of the Shrek Supervisory Group and elder of the Sea God Pavilion!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces changed drastically. Xuan Zi's position in the Sea God Pavilion was extremely special. After all, he was the strongest man in Shrek Academy second only to Mu En. In the future, when Mu En passed away, Xuan Zi would be the well-deserved leader of the Sea God Pavilion.
As for Yan Shaozhe, his strength was not as good as Xuan Zi's, and at most, he could take over Xuan Zi's position in the future.
Yan Shaozhe said, "Master Xuan, how can this be? Your mistakes this time are all because the evil soul master is too cunning! If it weren't for the evil soul master, your team wouldn't have suffered so many casualties.
I have decided. I will issue a wanted order later, in the name of Shrek Academy, for this damn messenger of death!"
Qian Duoduo said, "Yes, Master Xuan, the Sea God Pavilion needs you, and Shrek Academy needs you too! You are one of the pillars of the Sea God Pavilion; how can you leave the Sea God Pavilion so easily?"
At this moment, other elders also began to persuade Xuan Zi.
Xuan Zi waved his hand and stood up, tears streaming down his face. "I have made up my mind, and there is no need to try to keep me. From today on, I will be an idler in Shrek Academy!"
Mu En slowly opened his eyes and said, "Xuan Zi, sit down. You can't leave. They are right. Shrek Academy still needs you. If you feel guilty, think about how to avoid this from happening for the third time in the future!"
Mu En was quite dissatisfied with Xuan Zi's mistakes again. After all, training a talented soul master is not an easy task, so he did have the idea of punishing the other party, but the idea quickly disappeared.
Because Xuan Zi was so important, Mu En knew very well that his health was not good, and that he would leave this world soon.
Even if he could survive for a while with the help of the golden tree, he would not be able to continue to lead the Sea God Pavilion. At that time, Shrek Academy would need Xuan Zi to command everything!
The opponent's martial soul is the Godly Taotie Bull (I think Taotie Divine Bull sounds good), which has the Taotie Bloodline. This blood gives it more advantages than most soul masters when facing Di Tian.
Even if humans have an agreement with Di Tian, they are not of our race, and their hearts must be different. Who knows when Di Tian will tear up the agreement and launch another beast tide?
If he died at that time, he would still use his remaining energy to help Xuan Zi withstand the pressure from Di Tian. After all, in Mu En's knowledge, Di Tian was the strongest person below the god level in the Douluo Continent. Neither he nor Long Xiaoyao would be a match for Di Tian if they fought alone.
Moreover, Xuan Zi is the only level 98 Super Douluo in Shrek Academy and may break through to level 99 at any time. Therefore, Xuan Zi's importance to Shrek Academy is self-evident.
So, for the sake of the overall situation, he could only endure it.
A bitter smile appeared on Xuan Zi's face. "But, Mr. Mu, I don't have the face to stay in the Sea God Pavilion anymore!"
"I said, sit down!" Mu En's voice suddenly rose.
Xuan Zi had no choice but to sit back in his seat. In terms of seniority, Mu En was his junior uncle, so naturally, he was also his elder.
Mu En said calmly, "You have indeed made a serious mistake again, but you also have to consider the responsibilities you bear. From now on, you will stay in the Sea God Pavilion and serve the academy as a kind of atonement.
However, in the future, every student will be equipped with sufficiently powerful soul guidance devices to prevent such incidents from happening again! Next, let's discuss the Fighting Soul Competition."
After hearing this, Xuan Zi said, "Mr. Mu, the strength of the Shrek Academy's participating teams has now dropped to the bottom, so I specially arranged for Wang Yan to find Xu Jiawei and let Xu Jiawei secretly manipulate the next opponent that Shrek Academy will encounter.
However, due to problems with the contestants themselves, I hope to recruit some new students from the academy to participate in the competition."
Hearing this, Mu En was a little stunned. "You let Xu Jiawei do this behind the scenes?"
"Yes!" Xuan Zi puffed out his chest proudly. He felt that he had finally done something to make up for his sins.
"Nonsense! Shrek Academy usually relies on its strength to crush its opponents in the Soul Fighting Competition. How can it secretly undermine the rules of the competition? This kind of thing is simply unheard of!
Once this matter gets out, do you know how much of an impact it will have on the reputation of Shrek Academy? Let Xu Jiawei stop his behind-the-scenes operations immediately!" Mu En's face looked a little ugly, and he scolded Xuan Zi loudly.
Xuan Zi was stunned for a moment, then immediately defended himself, "Mr. Mu, but if I don't do this, the thousand-year glory of Shrek Academy may be destroyed!
Those who took to the field were either seriously injured and unable to fight or were slightly injured. If Shrek Academy was defeated in the first round of the academy elimination match, the entire Shrek Academy would be disgraced!"
"Ten thousand years of glory? Is this kind of thing really that important? Losing is not a terrible thing! In my opinion, growth is the most important thing," Mu En sighed.
Yan Shaozhe glanced at Mu En, then said cautiously, "Teacher, but ever since the team of the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils defeated the Spirit Hall team, the glory of the academy has been accumulating step by step.
If our academy is defeated in the first round of the academy elimination match, even the original Shrek Seven Devils who ascended to the divine realm might be brought to shame because of this incident.
I don't know the situation in the God Realm, but I think that the glory established by the original Shrek Seven Devils should not be abandoned! Mr. Xuan's actions are indeed a bit extreme, but for the eternal glory of the academy, please consider it carefully!"
Yan Shaozhe really couldn't imagine what kind of criticism Shrek Academy would face if it couldn't even make it through the first college elimination match. He was proud of Shrek Academy and would never allow outsiders to take this opportunity to tarnish the image of Shrek Academy.
Qian Duoduo also said, "Mr. Mu, this is a moment that concerns the honor of the academy. I think that although Mr. Xuan's approach is problematic, his starting point is still for the honor of the academy.
Of course, I have another idea. We can directly announce that because of the attack by the evil soul master, the Shrek Academy team suffered serious damage and could not participate in the competition normally. But in this way, we will only receive some sympathy and a lot of ridicule. After all, this is considered retreating without a fight!
So, I think that if Shrek Academy participates in this competition, it must at least get into the top four!
With the position in the top four, if you explain that there were heavy losses due to the encirclement and suppression of evil soul masters, many people will understand. After all, by then, Shrek Academy will have won honor in defeat!"
The other elders also tried to persuade him, and their stance was basically that it was the eternal glory of the academy.
After hearing these words, Mu En pondered for a while, then he sighed, "It seems that you all attach great importance to the academy's ten-thousand-year glory. Glory has now become a shackle on us!
I still don't agree with behind-the-scenes operations. Let's stop them. This behavior is not good for the student's growth. It is easy for them to develop bad habits, and it also brings shame to the academy! Okay, just pick a few suitable students and send them over to supplement the number of students, and don't mention this matter anymore."
The meeting ended quickly, and Mu En left the Sea God Pavilion directly.
The rest of the elders also left.
However, Xuan Zi and Yan Shaozhe were on the same path.
Xuan Zi said with a stiff upper lip, "Shaozhe, I have always listened to Master Mu, but today I must oppose Master Mu. How can we just abandon the academy's thousand-year glory? I will not let Xu Jiawei stop his secret operation!
So, you listen to me. Not only do we have to arrange for new students to participate in the competition and make up the fourteen regular reserve players, but we also have to bring Mo Xuan with us and find a few spiritual attribute soul masters who graduated from Shrek Academy to provide off-field assistance! Even if we don't aim for the championship, we must be able to get into the top four and save the reputation of the academy!"
"Master Xuan, this is something that the teacher has decided. Besides, if we provide off-field assistance, isn't that cheating?" Yan Shaozhe was a little hesitant.
Xuan Zi took a deep breath; he attached great importance to the Ten Thousand Years of Glory, especially when several contestants died. He felt that this Fighting Soul Competition had been given extraordinary significance. If Shrek left the competition too early, he would feel a little sorry for the dead Yao Haoxuan and others.
So he said, "Shaozhe, do you want Shrek Academy to be laughed at? Just think of it as the eternal glory of the academy, okay? If Mr. Mu asks about it later, I will bear all the responsibilities!"
Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes, and three soul rings gradually appeared on his body. Just now, Jing Hongchen beat a suitable silver jade snake to the brink of death, and Huo Yuhao, with the help of Electrolux and the Ice Empress's aura, successfully turned the silver jade snake into his spirit soul.
At this moment, in the spiritual sea, Bingdi was looking at a small silver-white snake with great interest. "Is this the soul that Master Yi developed? It looks quite smart and can assist the soul master in attacking. It does have a considerable advantage over the soul ring.
Moreover, for soul beasts, this allows them to retain their consciousness, which is indeed a great invention!"
She and Tianmeng Ice Silkworm have special status, but they do not belong to the category of spirit souls yet. The first spirit soul in the original book is Xue Di, but the first spirit soul at this moment is this silver jade snake.
She stretched out her scorpion pincers and clamped the silver jade snake. The silver jade snake was so scared that it dared not move. Seeing this scene, Bingdi smiled and said, "It's quite sensible."
Tianmeng Ice Silkworm on the side saw this scene and came over immediately, "Bingbing, you have never pinched me with your pliers. I am a little jealous of it. Bingbing, pinch mine too!"
