Douluo: My Clone Simulates the Star God.

Chapter 142 Shrek's True Colors

The silver-clad girl stepped out from the crowd, her eyes gleaming with unwavering determination, inspiring even those around her.

"Fireflies..."

Tang Wulin pronounced the name of the person in front of him with some difficulty; it was Liu Ying, his good friend of many years.

"According to the doll, sacrificing just one person's life would save everyone here, right?"

"Then let me do it!"

That's what the fireworks doll meant.

Tang Wulin must choose one person from the current temporary "Shrek Seven Devils" and have that person take the bomb away from Shrek Academy. Only in this way can the academy be saved.

Compared to the silent others, Liu Ying stepped forward without hesitation, which made Tang Wulin sigh. Indeed, the gap between himself and Liu Ying was still very large!

Even Tang Wulin understood that this was no laughing matter. Although he didn't know what the Fools were planning to do, Tang Wulin really didn't want his companions to take this risk.

Moreover, Liu Ying suffers from an unimaginable illness that Tang Wulin has yet to find a cure for, leaving him with no choice but to rely on the books within Shrek Academy.

There was also the strange man who kept appearing in his dreams recently, talking about the Golden Tree... Ah Yin... all of which Tang Wulin couldn't understand, but his main purpose was to get Tang Wulin to go to the inner courtyard.

But getting into the inner courtyard is easier said than done.

With his martial soul being Blue Silver Grass, he could only rely on his own efforts to accomplish all of this. However, no one expected that the thing he least wanted to see would still happen.

"Firefly, I will absolutely not let you do it..."

"That's wonderful!"

Before Tang Wulin could finish speaking, he was interrupted by someone next to him, and the person's tone was very rude.

"You bravely stepped forward when the academy was in crisis; Shrek Academy needs people like you!"

The visitor was a teacher from Shrek Academy. Tang Wulin didn't recognize him, since he wasn't in their class. He was probably from an upper grade.

However, the teacher's actions completely surprised Tang Wulin. He did not try to dissuade her, but instead made Liu Ying sacrifice herself.

Is something wrong? Shouldn't you ask the person if they want to do this? Why force them to do it?

Before Tang Wulin could react, another teacher stepped forward and did the same thing as the previous one.

"Well done, Firefly! Students should always be dedicated to upholding Shrek's honor! Your actions truly make you a hero of Shrek!"

"Of the group, only Firefly is the fastest, and she's the most suitable candidate!"

"Living up to the name of the Shrek Seven Devils!"

Led by the two teachers, the remaining silent students joined the fray, showering the fireflies with praise.

"As expected of the most powerful freshman, I didn't expect him to grasp the spirit of Shrek Academy so quickly!"

"It's all up to you, Firefly! You absolutely must take that bomb with you!"

"You're the only one here who can save us!"

The voices of the people around him rang out at that moment, leaving Tang Wulin frozen in place. They were all encouraging Liu Ying to make a sacrifice?

This was unbelievable to Tang Wulin. Although Liu Ying did it voluntarily, why didn't anyone stand up to stop her?

Is this really the number one academy on the continent? Is this Shrek Academy, the one worth sacrificing everything for?

Fireworks' words kept flashing through his mind, and Tang Wulin's brain was working frantically.

At that moment, a certain icy blue figure couldn't help but appear in his mind again; that was the first real teacher Tang Wulin had ever met in his life.

Soar through the sky!

Tang Wulin could even imagine what would happen if Teacher Wu were here.

"We teachers aren't all dead yet, so why should it be your turn, you little kids?"

If it were a dance teacher, she would definitely stop all of this!

However, this is no longer Donghai Academy where Wu Changkong is, but Shrek Academy!

A place that once filled Tang Wulin with countless fantasies... is now the place where those fantasies have been shattered.

"Sister Firefly! Don't go!"

"What's wrong with everyone? Why are you making Firefly do it?"

Tang Wulin's companions also tried to stop her; they didn't want Liu Ying to do it either, however…

"Are you guys even Shrek students? Why aren't you protecting our academy?"

"Sacrificing for the academy is an honorable thing! So many people want to do it but don't have the chance, and you actually intend to stop me?"

Apart from Tang Wulin and Liu Ying, the others were all overwhelmed by the Shrek Academy crowd and could no longer make a sound, leaving only the two of them and the bomb that was about to explode.

"Haven't you made up your minds yet? The bomb's about to explode! Forty seconds left!"

When the doll's voice rang out again, Tang Wulin realized that Liu Ying had already put on the Sam mech at some point.

"Fireflies...no! Blue fireflies are swirling around!"

Seeing the other person holding the doll, Tang Wulin immediately summoned his martial soul to try and stop them, however…

Hey!

At that moment, a large hand landed on Tang Wulin's shoulder, causing his gathered soul power to dissipate instantly.

"Dean Tsai...?"

The person who stopped Tang Wulin was none other than Cai Yue'er, the dean of Shrek Academy's outer court.

"Wu Lin, this is Liu Ying's own choice. We shouldn't stop her; we should support her wholeheartedly!"

Cai Yue'er's words extinguished the last glimmer of hope in Tang Wulin's heart, and also made his eyes moist.

"Really, is there absolutely no possibility?"

"The opponent's strength has reached the level of a god. We have no choice but to do as the opponent wants..." Cai Yue'er's tone was full of helplessness. "Blame those evil soul masters. They are the ones who caused all this."

Cai Yue'er's words made Tang Wulin grit his teeth. Evil Soul Masters... they were indeed wrong, but were they the only ones at fault? Not necessarily.

boom--!

Flames erupted behind Sam, and in the blink of an eye, he soared into the air like a firework about to explode…

At Shrek Academy, on the shore of Poseidon Lake, countless people watched the towering flames with smiles on their faces. Only the Shrek Seven Devils were still worried about Liu Ying's situation.

Before long, flames lit up the sky, as bright as the sun, accompanied by a violent shockwave.

There is no doubt that if this bomb were to explode inside Shrek Academy, it would surely level the entire academy!

But at this moment, another thought arose in Tang Wulin's mind...

"If Shrek Academy were really destroyed...how wonderful that would be!"
