Chapter 124 Yan Shaozhe's Double-Dealing.
Yan Shaozhe, the Phoenix Douluo, is the personal disciple of Dragon God Mu En, and his martial soul is the Bright Phoenix.
Such a "pure and upright" genius should, in theory, not just be a level 95 Super Douluo at this age.
However, Mu En once personally commented on this disciple of his, saying that he lacked a sense of magnanimity, which resulted in a deficiency in his mental state and thus slow progress in his cultivation.
It can only be said that he is indeed the offspring of Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui. Even though he was personally raised by Mu En, some of his inherent personality traits cannot be changed.
Yan Shaozhe's problem isn't just being petty; many of his ideas are quite dangerous.
It could even be said that Yan Shaozhe was partly to blame for the "bombardment" of Shrek Academy ten thousand years later.
The Holy Spirit Cult transported a level 12 Godslayer Soul Guidance Cannon into Shrek City. This was not only due to the secret assistance of the Spirit Pagoda's Eternal East Wind, but also with the tacit approval of the Federation at the time.
It's clear that Shrek's domineering and powerful nature had already made it unacceptable to many forces.
It can be said that after Dean Yan Shaozhe, the atmosphere at Shrek Academy gradually changed, becoming more self-centered and domineering.
That being said, although Yan Shaozhe had cursed Xuanzi's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, he did not show it on the surface and was still trying his best to defend him.
"Elder Xuan, you can't be entirely blamed for this. After all, no one could have imagined that a Soul King-level evil Soul Master could unleash an attack at the Soul Saint level."
"Moreover, as the commander, Xiao Tao was reckless and impulsive, and not careful enough, so she also has to bear some responsibility."
"Elder Xuan, you are the backbone of the academy. The academy cannot do without you."
He said things against his conscience, and even dragged his own disciples into it.
All of this was done to keep Xuanzi in the Sea God Pavilion.
After all, without such a powerful figure in charge, Yan Shaozhe wouldn't feel at ease as the dean.
"This is not the first time such a thing has happened. I am sorry for the dead and injured students. I have no face to stay in the Sea God Pavilion anymore."
Xuanzi's eyes were unfocused, and his slightly dejected face was full of regret. He hadn't even had the appetite to eat a chicken leg all day.
"Elder Xuan!"
Encouraged by Yan Shaozhe's gaze, Xian Lin'er, the dean of the Soul Guidance Department, also spoke up: "Elder Xuan, everyone knows about the flaws in your martial soul. At worst, we won't let you lead the team anymore, but the Sea God Pavilion really needs you to take charge!"
Xuanzi shook his head: "Everyone, please stop talking. I will never forgive myself."
"Yao Haoxuan and Zhu Lu's families are quite powerful. I will personally visit them to apologize and do my best to ease their grief."
Yan Shaozhe gritted his teeth upon hearing this, secretly resentful, feeling that Xuanzi was deliberately bringing up this matter.
Gongyang Mo is dead too. Why didn't he say anything? It's because the power behind him was small, so he couldn't make any noise.
Even though he felt that Xuanzi was just asking others to clean up his mess, Yan Shaozhe really had to help at this moment.
He immediately said, "Elder Xuan, I will personally handle the matter of providing compensation to the families of the injured and deceased students. You don't need to worry about these things."
"I still cannot forgive myself. My mind is made up, and you all don't need to persuade me anymore."
After saying this, Xuanzi stood up and made a move to walk outside.
"return!"
A calm yet authoritative voice suddenly rang out, and Xuanzi stopped abruptly after taking only two steps.
After the start of this Sea God Pavilion meeting, Sea God Pavilion Master Mu En, who was sitting in the main seat, spoke for the first time.
Xuanzi turned around, his face full of grief, and said, "Elder Mu, please let me go. I really have no face to stay."
Moon did not reply, but instead slowly stood up from the recliner.
Back then, he fought a fierce battle with the sect leader of the Body Sect, Du Bisi. Although he survived, he was severely injured and paralyzed, unable to straighten his back.
As the power of light bloomed within him, his body, which had been bent at a ninety-degree angle, slowly straightened up, his gaze fixed on Xuanzi beside him.
Inside the Sea God Pavilion, everyone was silent with fear. These so-called elders were all juniors in front of Mu En, after all, Mu En was a renowned powerhouse on the continent two hundred years ago.
"What's done is done, and nothing we do afterward can change anything!"
"My lifespan won't exceed five years. If there weren't no strong people to guard the academy after my death, do you think I would still keep you in the Sea God Pavilion after what happened with that girl Le Xuan last time!"
When Moon said this, everyone in the pavilion was shocked.
This statement is about Xuanzi, but it also refers to them.
If one of them could become a level 98 Super Douluo, why would Mu En have to struggle so hard?
Xuanzi was nearly two hundred years old, and he lowered his head in embarrassment. He was truly ashamed this time.
Moon's gaze swept over everyone, and the oppressive aura of the Holy Light Dragon swept through the Sea God Pavilion like a wave of air, causing everyone to become solemn.
Moon then continued, "Xuanzi, you will step down as the deputy head of the Shrek Academy's inspection team. You will stay at the academy and teach the students. You are not allowed to lead teams out on your own in the future."
"Lin'er!"
Suddenly called upon, Xian Lin'er quickly responded, "Elder Mu!"
"After the meeting, order a set of flying soul tools and a set of defensive soul tools for all inner court disciples!"
After saying that, he looked at his disciple Yan Shaozhe, who was about to speak, his gaze turned cold, and he snorted, "This fee will come from your Martial Soul Department. Anyone who objects can leave the academy."
Hearing what the teacher had said, Yan Shaozhe promptly shut up.
Xian Lin'er was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, Elder Mu, I will do a good job."
"Teacher, what about Xingluo's competition? They only have a few reserve players left over there."
Yan Shaozhe then brought up the matter again.
Seeing that Elder Mu was still pondering, Cai Meier, the vice dean of the Martial Soul Department, spoke up: "Elder Mu, there are two more disciples in the inner courtyard who meet the requirements. They are both Soul Kings and their cultivation is not bad. Sending them over might be able to hold out until Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng recover."
Moon shook his head: "There's no need. There's no need to send reinforcements. Let this competition take its natural course."
Xuanzi, who had been silent all along, suddenly raised his head and exclaimed in surprise, "Elder Mu, if we don't send reinforcements, our Shrek Academy's ten-thousand-year championship is going to be lost!"
"Yes, Mr. Mu, we can't let the championship slip through our fingers."
"This concerns the honor of Shrek, Elder Mu."
...
The other elders in the pavilion also spoke up, clearly disagreeing with Moon's decision.
Mu En's aura suddenly erupted, revealing the formidable power of a level 99 Limit Douluo.
Even though everyone seated in the Sea God Pavilion was a Title Douluo, they instantly fell silent.
"Shrek's glory has never been won by winning these competitions."
"I think some people's minds have changed over the years, and they have long been hijacked by so-called honors."
"I think losing once might be a good thing for the academy."
"That's settled then!"
Mu En even revealed his martial spirit, and at this moment, no one dared to contradict this Dragon God Douluo, so they all agreed.
However, with such a large academy, it's impossible for Moon to have complete control over everything.
Such hypocrisy and double-dealing can happen anywhere.
Right after the Sea God Pavilion meeting ended, Yan Shaozhe specifically sought out Xuanzi.
"Elder Xuan, I have already selected the people. Please take them to Xingluo as soon as possible!"
