When Qian Daoliu transmigrated into Douluo Continent II, even the evil spirit masters were terrified

Xuanzi's left cheek was swollen high, his eyes were squinted into slits, blood was hanging from the corner of his mouth, and his hair was a mess. He looked as disheveled as could be.

Yan Shaozhe supported him and whispered a reminder in a low voice.

"Elder Xuan, why are you doing this? You're already injured, and your strength is no match for Qian Daoliu. Just listen to what he says, but you have to talk back. Don't cause any more trouble later, or no one can protect you."

Yan Shaozhe was also impressed.

Sometimes he really felt that Xuanzi was like a child who hadn't grown up.

It's one thing to be a glutton in general, but there are countless outrageous things he's done for the sake of a stutter.

The key is his temper; he can't stand being taken advantage of in the slightest, yet he can't beat others in a fight, and he only behaves himself after being beaten up.

"snort!"

Xuanzi exhaled through his nose, still feeling unconvinced.

But when he looked up, he met Qian Daoliu's gaze, which was as cold as ice. He immediately shrank back and swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

He dared to exchange a few sarcastic remarks with Qian Daoliu because he was certain that the other party would be mindful of his status and wouldn't actually kill him.

But that slap just now had woken him up.

If Qian Daoliu is really angered, and he gets hit again, he'll lose his life.

"Huo Yuhao is here as a guest of the Spirit Hall today. You should respect his wishes instead of treating him as the private property of Shrek Academy and manipulating his will at will."

"Remember, the trainees are not your appendages. They have their own minds and their own choices. If you continue like this, next time I won't just give you a slap."

Qian Daoliu left without even glancing at Xuanzi and Yan Shaozhe after saying those words.

Huo Yuhao stood there, staring blankly at his retreating figure.

Qian Daoliu's words kept swirling in his mind.

My heart felt warm.

Yes, I am not Shrek Academy's private property. I have my own life and the right to decide my own destiny.

At this moment, all the grievances he had suffered at Shrek Academy came flooding back uncontrollably.

His classmates from the outer academy gossiped behind his back every day, saying he was a good-for-nothing who got in through connections, and that he didn't deserve to be in Shrek Academy with only level one innate soul power.

When the classes were first assigned, no one wanted to be in his group. They always made him do the dirtiest and most tiring work, like cleaning.

I got first place in the first assessment, but people still go around saying I cheated.

And last time, when Xuanzi led them on a mission, he smelled something and went to catch a chicken, which resulted in them encountering an evil soul master. If it weren't for Qian Daoliu's timely intervention, the whole team would have almost perished in the Mingdou Mountains.

He used to keep these things to himself, thinking that he could just endure them and they would pass.

But today, Xuanzi wanted to take action without distinguishing right from wrong, and coupled with Qian Daoliu's words, the emotions that had been suppressed in my heart suddenly surged up.

The words that Electrolux, Tianmeng Ice Silkworm, and Ice Emperor had used to persuade him back then, echoed in his mind.

Huo Yuhao turned around and gave Xuanzi and Yan Shaozhe a deep look.

Xuanzi was still covering her face and whimpering, not even glancing at him.

Yan Shaozhe was only focused on helping Xuanzi and ignored him.

In that one look, there was disappointment, resolve, and a sense of relief at having a heavy burden lifted.

He pursed his lips, then without further hesitation, quickly followed Qian Daoliu's retreating figure.

Only after the two figures completely disappeared into the woods did Xuanzi dare to unleash her anger.

He stomped his foot hard, and the ground around him shook violently, causing leaves to fall down in a rustling sound.

"I'm so angry! That old scoundrel Qian Daoliu is going too far!"

Xuanzi covered his left cheek, wincing in pain, but he didn't hold back with his words.

"Alright, let's go back."

Yan Shaozhe sighed and offered a soft word of advice.

Xuanzi clenched his fists tightly, his eyes fierce, as if he had made some enormous decision.

"The Spirit Hall is no match for Shrek Academy. In the upcoming Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament, I will show everyone that Shrek Academy is the number one power in the world, and the Spirit Hall is nothing but a chicken and a dog!"

Xuanzi spoke with great enthusiasm, his spittle flying everywhere.

My mind is filled with images of myself standing on the podium at the competition.

He had already begun to imagine the scene where the Spirit Hall would suffer a crushing defeat, and Qian Daoliu would apologize to him in front of the entire continent.

The more he thought about it, the more pleased he became, even forgetting the swelling and pain on his face, and straightening his back considerably.

"Let's go, when we get back we'll call Ma Xiaotao and the others back and give them a good training session."

Xuanzi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, raised his head and straightened his chest, ready to leave.

He acted as if he wasn't the one who had just been beaten up.

Seeing this, Yan Shaozhe quickly grabbed his arm, almost causing Xuanzi to stumble.

"Let's play it safe. If that man in black robes reappears, we probably won't be able to escape. In our current state, if we encounter an opponent of that level again, we'll be dead for sure!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanzi's leg, which had just stepped out, immediately froze on the ground.

He instantly recalled the black-robed man he had encountered before.

The opponent only made one move, and I was immediately knocked down without even a chance to fight back. Now that I'm injured, if I were to encounter them again, even ten lives wouldn't be enough to save me.

Long Xiaoyao is terrifyingly powerful!

Xuanzi broke out in a cold sweat and nodded in deep agreement.

"Alright, let's hide in the Mingdou Mountains for a couple of days and discuss this further."

He spoke in a serious tone, making no mention of the harsh words he had just uttered.

Anyway, there are no outsiders around, so I won't lose face.

Yan Shaozhe breathed a sigh of relief, fearing that the old man might cause trouble again in a moment of impulsiveness, so he quickly helped him up and found a secluded cave to hide in.

Once inside the cave, Xuanzi was still muttering that once they returned to the academy, he would definitely increase the intensity of their training so that Ma Xiaotao and the others could break through even faster.

Yan Shaozhe leaned against the cave wall, shook his head helplessly, and pretended not to hear.

……

Meanwhile, Qian Daoliu led Huo Yuhao towards the interior of the Spirit Hall.

Huo Yuhao followed behind, looking around.

One after another, the palaces along the way stood magnificent with their upturned eaves and corners.

Huo Yuhao was secretly astonished; the Spirit Hall's pomp and circumstance was even grander than Shrek Academy's.

However, he was preoccupied with Tang Wutong and wondered how she was doing, whether she had been wronged, or whether she had been injured.

Does she not want to see herself?

After walking for about fifteen minutes, the two passed through several grand halls and arrived at the back garden.

As soon as I entered, two figures came into view.

As usual, Xue Di squatted by the flower bed, carefully tending to the flowers and plants she had planted.

She wore a plain white dress, her silver hair loosely tied back with a light-colored ribbon, and she held a small flower shovel in her hand, moving very gently.

Sunlight fell on her silver hair, giving it a soft glow.

As for Tang Wutong, she sat alone on a stone bench in the corner of the courtyard, resting her chin on her hands and staring blankly at the sky.

He seemed listless, his eyes were vacant, and he didn't move for a long time.

It didn't even react when someone came in.
