Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 294 A Series of Bad News

When faced with life-or-death situations, humanity's worst traits are fully revealed.

The luxurious reception hall was now filled with negative emotions such as resentment, jealousy, greed, and despair.

The elders of Shrek Academy never imagined that Zhang Lexuan, whom they once regarded as a 'tool of glory,' would have such a fate after leaving Shrek.

What she never expected was that the reason she was able to obtain all of this was because of that boy who they had tacitly abandoned.

The peerless armor, the empress of a nation, the cultivation of a Super Douluo and the combat power of a Limit Douluo—any one of these alone would make Shrek Academy happy for a long time.

But this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity slipped through their fingers due to their long-standing arrogance and negligence.

On the contrary, these seniors who considered themselves to be of noble status were reduced to being subservient to others due to the malicious targeting of their enemies.

Faced with such a stark contrast, these old folks became increasingly resentful, and a wicked fire gradually ignited in their hearts.

In an instant, the emotions that had been building up in the hearts of many elders finally erupted.

In the blink of an eye, the once quiet hall turned into a scene of street fighting, with shouts and smashing noises filling the air.

But to Wu San's surprise, the ones who were scolded the most in the chaos were not his own master and mistress.

On the contrary, Xuanzi, who sat on the ground without uttering a sound from beginning to end, and Yan Shaozhe, who had been taken away by the master and whose fate had been unknown for a long time, were the ones who stood out.

The reason behind it made Wu San chuckle to himself.

The former only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun without putting in any effort.

If he could break through to the Limit Douluo level sooner, Mu En wouldn't be isolated and helpless when the Body Sect came knocking.

They certainly wouldn't be hung up and whipped when the world's attention is on them.

The latter is even simpler.

If it weren't for Yan Shaozhe's narrow-mindedness and his concern only for his own disciple's smooth future.

How could a peerless genius with twin martial souls possibly miss out on Shrek Academy?

Now things are really messed up: Mu En is dead, the Golden Tree is lost, Shrek Academy is destroyed, and Yan Shaozhe and his precious disciple have also disappeared without a trace.

Only their remnants remained, barely clinging to life on someone else's territory.

And that "borrowing a chicken to lay eggs" thing!
That's utter nonsense! I really don't know what Song Yunzhi and her husband, Kuai, were thinking!

The 'chicken' was borrowed, and it laid 'eggs'.

But all the good eggs went to someone else!

All that was left for them were some insignificant little 'eggs', and the few that were left for them were all taken by Xuanzi.

They called it "doing their utmost to break through to the Limit Douluo level."

Of course, this was something everyone agreed to at the beginning.

But as time went on, even the most senior and least intelligent elders could sense that something was wrong.

Who broke through to the Limit Douluo level by eating chicken legs and drinking alcohol every day?

Isn't this just making a fool of them?
This is why the Spirit Soul Merchant Guild had to move, and many elders had to leave with their families.

Otherwise, they would have already had a huge fight with Xuanzi.

Another point is that I agree with Xu Sanshi's idea of ​​using the status and position of various forces to purchase 'Soul Ring Condensation'.

Initially, the plan went very smoothly when it was first implemented.

The inner court disciples who needed spirit rings not only obtained highly compatible 'condensed spirit rings' very smoothly.

Even the 'Soul Palace' has never deliberately targeted them in this matter.

However, after several rounds of arrangements, some of the senior members noticed that something seemed amiss.

For some reason, the number of inner court disciples and teachers returning after going out has inexplicably decreased significantly.

This situation greatly concerned the elders of Shrek Academy, who immediately questioned the students who had gone with them.

The answer they received was the one they least wanted to hear.

Those disciples who claimed they would live and die with the academy actually joined various sects and forces as soon as they left the 'Soul Hall,' giving Shrek Academy no chance to react.

The way they joined was even more outrageous: the man married into the family, and the woman got engaged.

It is common knowledge that men should marry when they are of age and women should marry when they are of age; it is a matter of course.

Even if the Shrek elders were shameless, they couldn't find a suitable reason to storm the gates and snatch back their students.

Moreover, as fellow local forces on the continent, even if they harbored resentment, they had no choice but to grit their teeth and bear it. Now, things have taken a turn for the worse; the three great empires haven't even been destroyed yet, and the sects are already surrendering.

In this way, those former inner court disciples who had just joined them could be said to have directly come under the control of the Sun Moon Empire.

They, on the contrary, became the hen that was borrowed to lay 'eggs'.

Meanwhile, Wu San, hiding in a corner, watched the Shrek Academy members' madness with a cold expression while secretly feeling sorry for the smashed furniture.

'Damn it! They never learn! They've already smashed it once, and we're still giving them such expensive stuff!'

Suddenly, a disheveled figure burst through the door and rushed into the room.

The sudden turn of events not only interrupted Wu San's plans but also brought the reception room back to calm.

Looking in the direction of the gate, one could see Xu Sanshi, his face filled with terror, clutching his knees, his mouth agape, gasping for breath, shouting loudly:

"Seniors, oh...oh no! Elders..."

Because he was in such a hurry, Xu Sanshi stood there for half a minute without uttering a complete sentence.

This made the already disgruntled elders even angrier, their eyes fixed on the inner court disciple on whom they had placed such high hopes.

Only Zhuang Yusen retained a sliver of reason. He immediately channeled the Tree of Life martial spirit into his body, unleashing a burst of life force to alleviate Xu Sanshi's fatigue and tension.

After Xu Sanshi calmed his rapid breathing, Lin Huiqun said sternly:
"Sanshi, catch your breath and speak properly. The sky hasn't fallen yet!"

"Yes, Elder Lin! The escort team has just returned, but..."

At this point, Xu Sanshi stopped in his tracks again, his hesitant expression making everyone anxious.

At the same time, a very bad premonition rose in my heart.

"But what?! Tell me quickly!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Sanshi closed his eyes and then shouted at the top of his lungs:

“Our disciples suffered heavy casualties. Four out of ten times, and each one was missing an arm or a leg, or was seriously injured and unconscious!”

"Of the four elders, only Dean Cai returned safely, and she too was seriously injured. The Chamber of Commerce's healing-type Soul Douluo is currently treating her!"

‘Boom! ’

The shocking news struck like a bolt from the blue, leaving everyone present feeling terrified.

They all stood there, stunned, unable to believe what they had just heard.

However, Xuanzi, who had developed resistance earlier, recovered first. Then, he unleashed his full power and rushed to Xu Sanshi, spitting as he spoke.

"Boy! Do you even know what you just said? Four Title Douluos, ten Inner Court disciples—what forces in the world can harm them?!"

"Elder Xuan, I'm not making this up! Dean Cai and the senior students are lying in the emergency room, waiting for treatment!"

Suppressing his instinctive fear, Xu Sanshi pointed shakily to the other side of the corridor.

He attempted to awaken the minds of many elders, especially Zhuang Yusen.

"Xiao Zhuang! Come with me!"

"Ah? Oh! Coming!"

At Xuanzi's command, the group seemed to wake from a dream and rushed towards the emergency room without daring to delay for even a moment.

They didn't care about the dead trainees, since a few died every year on missions!
The only one who absolutely cannot have anything happen to Cai Meier!

Shrek Academy no longer has the resources to cultivate another Super Douluo; it's truly a case of one less to lose!
And so, a group of old men fussed around for a long time, passing on soul power and carrying basins and pouring water.

Fortunately, the Tree of Life's healing abilities remained intact, and Cai Meier's decent soul power protected the students.

It wasn't until late at night that the escort team was out of danger with only these four fruits left, and Cai Meier slowly woke up.

"Mei'er! What exactly happened? Why were the losses so severe?!"

Lin Huiqun, who had been waiting nearby, couldn't help but ask a question, which made the healing-type soul master of the Chamber of Commerce frown frequently.

Does this old man lack any basic knowledge about Soul Masters?
The patient's injuries are severe and they need to rest!
However, it has nothing to do with him.

On the other side, after confirming that she was completely safe, Cai Meier, pale-faced, opened her dry lips and slowly spoke.

"They are evil soul masters from the Holy Spirit Cult! There are many of them, and they are very strong! There are six titled Douluo alone, and the one with the highest cultivation level is level 96!"

"what?!"
