Douluo: The Peerless King Dong'er's Restarted Life

Chapter 206 Wang Yan's life has been adrift, without ever encountering a wise ruler.

Although Poseidon Lake is very large, Poseidon Island is not particularly large.

Yan Shaozhe led everyone along the stone path that resembled the one by the Sea God Lake in the outer courtyard, all the way deeper until they arrived at a pavilion.

The plaque above the pavilion reads "Pavilion of the Sea God," clearly indicating that this is the destination.

Then, Yan Shaozhe bowed to the Sea God Pavilion and said, "Teacher, they've all returned."

The dean's teacher at the Martial Soul Department?

Almost everyone was stunned. Yan Shaozhe himself looked quite old, and his teacher was still alive.

The next moment, a layer of rich golden light shone from the pavilion and fell on everyone.

Everyone reacted differently, but they all felt incredibly comfortable in the face of this golden light.

Immediately afterwards, the group entered the Sea God Pavilion and saw a long table with elderly men sitting on either side of it.

Xuanzi and the four deans also took their seats.

"Regardless of what happened before, let me explain to you now what the Sea God Pavilion is like in front of you."

"The Sea God Pavilion is the core that guides the future direction of the academy. Any decisive action of the academy must first be decided by the Sea God Pavilion meeting. Every elder who can sit here has made great contributions to the academy."

"Although you did not win the championship, your intentions are commendable, so the Sea God Pavilion will reward you accordingly."

After a brief introduction of the Sea God Pavilion, Yan Shaozhe called out in a deep voice, "Ma Xiaotao, Dai Yueheng!"

Dai Yueheng and a somewhat dazed Ma Xiaotao quickly responded.

"As inner court disciples, you two failed to detect the enemy's anomaly in time while carrying out a surveillance mission, resulting in your teammate suffering serious injuries and affecting the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament. You are hereby given a major demerit!"

Not only were Ma Xiaotao and her companion surprised, but Bei Bei and her two companions were also extremely astonished.

"What? You still have objections?" Yan Shaozhe's face darkened. "Ma Xiaotao, as offensive-type Soul Masters, you and Dai Yueheng should have faced difficulties head-on to protect your teammates. Did you do that? As for Ling Luochen, the main controller... well, if it weren't for the King..."

Yan Shaozhe hesitated for a moment, then coughed twice before saying, "In short, judging from the situation at the time, the team's losses were entirely due to your carelessness and underestimation of the enemy. However, as inner court disciples and regular team members participating in the competition, your rewards will be offset against this major demerit. The major demerit will not be recorded in your files, and no rewards will be issued!"

Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng both breathed a sigh of relief. If their files had recorded a major demerit, it would have been a stain that would accompany them for life.

"Alright, you two can go back now. Remember, everything you see at the Sea God Pavilion must be kept secret. And Yueheng, you've completed enough surveillance missions; you can start preparing for your graduation exam in the Inner Academy."

After sending the two away, only Wang Yan, Bei Bei, and the other two remained in the Sea God Pavilion.

"Wang Yan, although you failed to lead the academy to the final championship, we have all seen your ability and attitude. I am now promoting you to a special-grade teacher at Shrek Academy, and you are allowed to teach in the inner academy. At the same time, the Sea God Pavilion Library will be open to you for six months. You can borrow books at will, but you cannot leave the library."

Wang Yan initially wanted to refuse the promotion, but upon hearing Yan Shaozhe's mention of the reward for entering the library, he was instantly moved to tears. "Dean, I... I am unworthy of this!" Wang Yan wiped away his tears; Shrek Academy hadn't just failed to win the championship, their results had been completely invalidated!
"Wang Yan has wandered for half his life without encountering a wise ruler. Fortunately, I was able to join the academy because of its appreciation. From now on, I will definitely study theory and contribute to the birth of strong people in the academy!" As he spoke, Wang Yan actually knelt down and kowtowed three times.

Yan Shaozhe looked at Bei Bei and the other two and said, "The prize for winning the competition wasn't given to you, but that's alright, Shrek Academy will give it to you! Each of you can receive a ten-thousand-year soul bone that matches your own abilities and characteristics!"

"In addition, the cultivation levels of the three of you have all surpassed those of the Soul Sect. The Sea God Pavilion has decided that after the end of your studies this academic year, you will directly take the Inner Academy Examination. If you pass the examination, you can study in the Inner Academy."

After saying all that, Yan Shaozhe turned and bowed to the head of the long table, saying, "Teacher, is there anything else you would like to add?"

“Beibei and Xu Sanshi, from now on, you two will be guided and taught by Xuanzi, and the same will be true when you enter the inner courtyard. He Caitou, you will be taught by Lin'er, Duoduo and Fanyu together.”

"Yes." The people mentioned by Moon all stood up and bowed.

Then, Moon sighed and said, "Tell me, what happened to this competition? It's caused so many fewer students to be eliminated."

"Great Ancestor, it was all caused by that bitch Wang Dong'er's instigation!" Bei Bei had been holding back her anger for a long time. After arriving here, she never expected that she would receive a reward even after leading Shrek Academy to lose the championship. While she was moved, the anger in her heart grew stronger, and she blurted out a habitual address.

When they heard Bei Bei address the Sea God Pavilion Master at the head of the table as their great-grandfather, Xu Sanshi and He Caitou were immediately taken aback.

Mu En paused for a moment, then stopped asking Bei Bei and instead asked Wang Yan to tell him everything.

Soon, after listening to Wang Yan's account, almost everyone present fell silent.

"Dear elders, it's all my fault!" Wang Yan knelt down again and kowtowed three more times. "If I hadn't made everyone use the cigars that Cai Tou had prepared beforehand on the field, we wouldn't have been caught cheating, and the academy wouldn't have suffered such a humiliating disgrace..."

"No, Teacher Wang, you're not wrong!" Bei Bei said through gritted teeth, "Food-type martial souls can be used on the field, so why didn't the others prepare in advance? Isn't it because they don't have the long shelf life of Cai Tou's cigars? If they had a teammate like Cai Tou, they would definitely have done the same!"

"The ones who are really in the wrong are Wang Dong'er and her team! She wasn't taking the competition seriously at all!"

A layer of golden light emanated from Moon and fell on Bebe.

"Beibei, you're too impatient."

As Moon finished speaking, Beibei visibly calmed down, switching between stillness and movement extremely quickly, as if she had been moved to enlightenment on the spot.

“Great Ancestor, your teaching is correct. I shouldn’t have let such a villain influence my mind,” Bei Bei said, bowing.

“Alright, I understand the situation. Xuanzi and Shaozhe, you two should start preparations. After you have the Seven Devils, bring them to the Sea God Pavilion to receive the Sea God's teachings. As for now, Beibei, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou, the three of you can go back first,” Mu En said.

"Yes." Both Yan Shaozhe and Xuanzi bowed respectfully to Mu En.

Beibei and the other two bowed at the same time and turned to leave.

“These are turbulent times, cough cough.” Mu En coughed twice and said seriously, “If I’m not mistaken, the Body Sect should be preparing to emerge again.”
