Douluo: What the hell is the academic master development system?

Chapter 703 Returning to the Shadow of the Past

That's why Chen Ping was able to be certain that everything before him was an illusion.

He had long disliked this old building and demolished it. If he really wanted to see what the old building looked like again, he would have to look at it in his memories.

Sure enough, the next moment, the entire class of freshmen appeared in Chen Ping's field of vision, along with Zhou Yi, a familiar face that Chen Ping hadn't seen for many years.

"Humph"

Chen Ping chuckled. Come to think of it, he had now grown to the point where he could easily kill this crazy woman.

Just as Chen Ping's thoughts were racing, the scene before him seemed to be sped up, and soon the scenes that Chen Ping had experienced reappeared one after another.

However, unlike before when Chen Ping saw Huo Yuhao run more than eighty laps from the window of Class 9's classroom and then suddenly injure his internal organs and spit out a mouthful of blood, this time Chen Ping sat on the playground and experienced a close-up, ultra-high-definition view of the past.

Soon, as the bell rang, students from the other nine classes squeezed out because of the chaos in Class 1. They all glared at Zhou Yi, who had no expression, and the Class 1 students who dared not speak out against her anger.

Immediately afterwards, the scenes in front of Chen Ping kept changing. There was a scene of Teacher Li, who had the Tree of Life martial soul, healing Huo Yuhao, and there was a scene of other teachers condemning Zhou Yi's behavior. There was even a scene of him confronting Zhou Yi for the first time after entering Shrek Academy.

Chen Ping sat on the ground of the playground, watching the scenes from the past flash before his eyes, but he did not make any unnecessary movements, just watched quietly.

Soon, perhaps feeling some dissatisfaction with Chen Ping's indifference, the scene in front of Chen Ping changed more and more rapidly. From Chen Ping setting up a scheme to frame Zhou Yi, to Zhou Yi becoming angry and ashamed because of the rumors that were spreading all over the city, forbidding anyone in the academy from discussing her, and even getting the title of a mysterious person.

Until the matter finally came to light, Du Weilun's office was kicked away by an angry student's parent, and even Yan Shaozhe, a super Douluo, had to step in to smooth things over and purge a group of political affairs personnel from the college, including Zhou Yi, Chen Ping remained unmoved.

However, Chen Ping's subconscious glance elsewhere clearly revealed his inner thoughts; he was not as calm as he appeared.

"The impact of this incident is too bad, and someone must be held accountable for it."

"It's clear that Zhou Yi, and the group of college bureaucrats who collaborated with her in deceiving their superiors and subordinates, can only wash away the negative impact of this incident with their blood."

The scene of Wang Yan exchanging words with Chen Ping in the office appeared before Chen Ping once again.

Soon after, Chen Ping saw Mu Lao, whose hair was white but not so sparse that he was too exhausted to even leave the Sea God Pavilion, cheerfully greeting his past self.

"Boy, you are now a famous figure who punishes evil and eliminates evil, why are you so depressed now?"

Old Mu's voice rang out, while Chen Ping, who had once been a man, now had a pale face and remained silent.

Chen Ping closed his eyes slightly, trying to avoid seeing the scene before him, but these scenes were illusory, so how could Chen Ping not see them just by closing his eyes?

At this moment, Cupid Wenna slowly appeared beside Chen Ping. Her figure was no longer three meters tall, but had changed to be a few inches shorter than Chen Ping. She looked at Chen Ping with great interest.

"Your memories are quite interesting. Although a divine thought and a very powerful being reside within them, and even the will of the entire Douluo Star is helping you resist my probing, preventing me from seeing the whole picture," "this is, after all, a small world formed after my death, not within the Douluo Continent. Therefore, I still saw the strongest and most unresolved obsession deep within your heart."

"Now you have the chance to change everything that happened. Do you want to go back and change it?"

Wenna's voice was very gentle. Chen Ping subconsciously lowered his head and found that he had turned back into himself, who was only a little over 1.6 meters tall and wearing a white school uniform.

Seeing Mu En's suggestion to spare Zhou Yi's life, Chen Ping knew that all he had to do was shake his head. Zhou Yi, who had harmed countless Shrek students, would finally have an ending that would please everyone.

This decision was easy for him, given that he had already stained his hands with countless lives and was now a ruthless and decisive man.

At this point, he no longer felt the confusion and fear he had when he first realized he was about to take someone's life.

"In that case, let's spare her life and do as you say, Elder Mu."

Chen Ping tore the previously copied document on how to deal with Zhou Yi to shreds and casually scattered it into the air. The scene in front of Chen Ping also shattered at that moment, leaving only the golden platform and Wen Nasi with a stiff and even somewhat distorted expression.

"why?"

Wenna's face was filled with disbelief: "You clearly had the chance to reverse all of this, and I gave you that chance. You are not the same person you used to be. By now, you've killed so many people that you can't even count them on two hands, right?"

"Why are you so stubborn? Why won't you change your decision? Don't you think that eliminating the root of the problem is the truly satisfying decision?"

As she spoke, Wenna trembled slightly, her golden eyes fixed on Chen Ping as if questioning him, or perhaps questioning someone who no longer existed.

"Because that's the way I came from, the optimal solution I came up with based on all the information I had at the time, and I can't change it."

Chen Ping raised his head and met Wen Nasi's gaze without fear: "I chose to get rid of Zhou Yi because I couldn't stand her actions, because of my sense of justice, but more so because once the freshman competition is over, she will become the class teacher of Class 1. It's better to be prepared than not, so I did it this way."

"But, behind her stands Fan Yu, Shrek Academy's most promising level eight soul master. My nod to kill Zhou Yi, and it seems that everything has come to a perfect end, but is this in Shrek's best interest?"

"If Fan Yu felt that eliminating me would at least comfort Zhou Yi's spirit in heaven, would the academy choose to protect Fan Yu, who has the greatest potential to become a level nine soul master, or to protect me, whose innate soul power was only level two at the time?"

"In this situation, if I were to take a step back, I might not be the staunch champion of justice, but rather an indecisive, sentimental young man. However, this outcome is one that all parties can accept after compromise."

"I've gotten to where I am today by reaping the benefits of this outcome and this decision. Now you're telling me to nod and kill Zhou Yi? What's the difference between that and making me deny everything I've ever done in the past?"

"So I'm sorry, this matter will always be an obsession that I can't let go of, but at that time, that was the only decision I could make."

"Only this decision can simultaneously ensure that I don't have to worry about Zhou Yi teaching me, I don't have to worry about Fan Yu's retaliation, and at the same time, it can allow the students who have suffered from Zhou Yi's morbid training methods to vent their anger."
