Douluo Continent: Angel Saint Huo Yuhao

Chapter 94 I'll let you sit down.
"Are we really going to fight? Has the academy sent reinforcements?"

Wang Dong's expression changed slightly.

What was supposed to be a pleasant opportunity to watch and learn from the game, or a trip with the team, has suddenly turned into a fierce battle that forces them to compete themselves. No one would be in a good mood under such circumstances.

Don’t say anything else.

No matter how strong she and Xiao Xiao are, they can't bridge the insurmountable gap between Soul Venerable and Soul King...

"Teacher Wang said there would be reinforcements, but I think it's unlikely."

Xiao Xiao snorted coldly, not believing at all that the academy could provide any help: "Those regular team members are already the best of the best selected from the inner academy's eligible age group. Now, it's questionable whether they can even assemble another Soul Emperor."

"And you know the situation of us in the reserve team. We're just a select few chosen from among the core disciples. If we really want to bring in reinforcements from the outer academy, we'll probably have to ask those sixth-year seniors to come and help us out in an emergency."

No matter how reinforcements are organized, one problem always looms large:
There is no Soul Emperor.

In the last Soul Master Competition alone, four experts with five or more Soul Rings emerged. Naturally, it's impossible for all of them to be Soul Kings this year. Under these circumstances, the competition simply cannot proceed!

Especially Shrek's greatest enemy—the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

This opponent can reliably field a Soul Emperor-led team every year, and with the team battle advantage of Soul Masters, if a real fight breaks out, their reserve team probably won't even last a single exchange before being eliminated.

"So, it seems we're completely doomed to lose..."

Wang Dong's expression fell.

"The bad news isn't over yet."

Xiao Xiao shook her head: "Senior Nan Nan's body hasn't been completely cleaned of the corpse poison yet. It will take at least a week to recover."

"So even in the preliminary rounds, we can only fight six against seven in team battles... and in group battles, we will definitely be one player short in one match."

The win rate is worrying.

Any academy with a high level of equipment and a Soul King as its main force is likely to be defeated, and there are quite a few of these powerful academies.

This is something that will inevitably happen after several rounds of competition.

"Let's rest first!"

Xiao Xiao patted Wang Dong's shoulder heavily, then pressed her back onto the pillow: "The battle is about to begin, so getting yourself in the right state of mind is more important than anything else."

……

Shrek Academy.

Poseidon Pavilion.

Xuanzi, who was flying at full speed, had arrived at the academy a night earlier. He sat at the entrance of the Sea God Pavilion, listening to the commotion inside and watching several elders come and go with grim faces.

Several heated arguments even broke out during the event, only to be stopped by a few extremely faint knocking sounds.

"Elder Xuan, the Sea God Pavilion meeting you proposed can begin."

Yan Shaozhe, pale-faced, bowed slightly, clearly having suffered a significant blow.

After all, Ma Xiaotao was someone he had raised himself, and he had guided her cultivation all the way. Compared to a disciple, Yan Shaozhe preferred to treat her as his own daughter.

He witnessed Ma Xiaotao's rapid progress, including her cultivation, breakthroughs, and absorption of soul bones, and was very proud of her.

But now, her martial soul has become corrupted, and she is gradually falling into the path of an evil soul master, becoming one of the potential threats that Shrek Academy must eliminate...

"I can understand how you feel."

With a sigh, Xuanzi patted Yan Shaozhe's shoulder a few times and staggered toward the Sea God Pavilion.

He has already decided.

From this day forward, he will resign from his position as Vice Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, and may even leave Shrek Academy to become a carefree wanderer. This will save him from further persecuting the hopes of the academy, and those promising young students.

"Absolutely not!"

The moment Xuanzi offered his resignation, several people in the council changed color and slammed their hands on the table in almost perfect unison.

"Xuanzi! You can be willful in other matters, but how can you let your childish nature prevail on such a major issue that affects the future of the academy!"

The experienced Elder Lin's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. If it weren't for the fact that she was slightly weaker than Xuanzi in cultivation, she would have already taken action to force him to apologize in front of the ancestral statue.

"Yes, Elder Xuan! Have you ever thought about how the Sea God Pavilion will continue to exist and shoulder the responsibility of maintaining the balance and stability of the continent if you just quit?"

Xian Lin'er glanced at Yan Shaozhe, who was immersed in grief, and took the initiative to speak, "Although this trip resulted in a major incident, the responsibility doesn't lie entirely with you. Who could have imagined that the power of an evil spirit master would actually affect Xiao Tao..."

"This is not a reason to excuse ourselves."

Xuanzi waved his hand heavily: "Including those children in the reserve team, I've already harmed three entire generations. In fact, if it weren't for the backup plan given to Wang Dong by the Haotian Sect, even she would have perished in this mission..."

Upon hearing this, the elders who had been vying to speak suddenly fell silent, and even Yan Shaozhe, who had remained indifferent just moments before, couldn't help but twitch at the corner of his mouth.

Wang Dong's background is not simple.

This fact was already evident when she enrolled, but the senior students present at the time didn't pay much attention to it, including Yan Shaozhe, who didn't bother to investigate her background.

Until she revealed the Clear Sky Hammer...

In that instant, Yan Shaozhe even had the urge to travel back in time and strangle himself.

Use a few pills to pay for the life of the young master of the Haotian Sect!

This incredibly stupid decision actually came from him!

But now, Xuanzi's words instantly made everyone who was indifferent realize the seriousness of the problem.

If the young master of the Haotian Sect really died because of Shrek Academy, wouldn't the Great Sumeru Hammer have to smash into the top of the Sea God Pavilion?

"In any case, it ended without any real danger..."

After holding it in for a long time, Xian Lin'er could only utter this sentence, which even she herself was unsure of.

"I've made up my mind!"

Xuanzi uttered his last words, then got up and walked out.

As a level 98 Super Douluo, if he wanted to leave, even if all the elders at the table attacked together, they couldn't stop him.

"Xuanzi."

—Except for one person.

"sit down."

Moon's voice carried a hint of coldness, though it was only a barely perceptible tinge, it sent chills down the spines of everyone present.

Old Master Mu has not been angry for nearly a hundred years.

"Old Mu! Please let me go! I have no face to see those children again!"

Xuanzi's body trembled along with the sound, but he still dared not take another step under Mu En's gaze.

"I'm telling you to sit down."

Moon tapped the table, and the golden light that had been emanating from the golden tree suddenly surged under his will, forming a vast ocean that rushed towards him, along with an aura that was almost beyond human limits.

boom!
Xuanzi, who was at level 98 and the closest Xuanzi to the limit of combat power in the Sea God Pavilion, was actually forced back into his seat by Mu En's single finger.
