After hearing these words, Elder Song couldn't help but become angry as well.
She abruptly stood up, her murky yet piercing eyes staring fixedly at Xuan Zi.
"Xuan Zi, do you still have any shame left?"
Her voice was filled with fury.
"To actually bully a child like this?"
"Bei Bei is Elder Mu's great-grandson!"
"What you are doing... how can you face the deceased Elder Mu?!"
Elder Song's voice echoed in the spacious Sea God Pavilion hall. Seeing Elder Song initiate the confrontation, Lin Huiqun quickly followed suit beside her.
She stood up, walked over to Elder Song, let her gaze fall on Xuan Zi, and sneered.
"Xuan Zi, if you plan to quit Shrek Academy..."
She paused, her tone carrying a hint of mockery.
"Then please leave your Bloodline behind."
Xuan Zi's brow furrowed sharply.
"What do you mean?"
Lin Huiqun looked him up and down, her gaze carrying a profound meaning.
"At your age... I wonder if you can still manage it? Elder Mu already talked to you about this matter before, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Xuan Zi's face instantly flushed red, turning alternately green and red.
Meanwhile, Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe, sitting on Xuan Zi's left and right sides, uncontrollably curled the corners of their mouths upward upon hearing Lin Huiqun's words, both forcefully holding back their laughter.
Sensing their strangeness, Xuan Zi abruptly turned his head and glared fiercely at the two of them.
That gaze was filled with frost, as if saying, "Try laughing and see what happens?"
Qian Duoduo and Yan Shaozhe immediately restrained their expressions, lowering their heads and daring not to make another sound.
Xuan Zi withdrew his gaze, took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, and then spoke once more.
"It is precisely because Bei Bei is Elder Mu's great-grandson..."
His voice carried a sense of disappointment at failing to meet expectations.
"That I feel disappointed in him for not living up to potential!"
"If Bei Bei could only take over Elder Mu's banner, I wouldn't say anything more!"
His gaze fell upon Bei Bei, his tone growing heavier and heavier.
"But what about Bei Bei?"
"Not only did he not inherit Elder Mu's talent..."
"Instead, he indulges in romance all day long!"
"Even now, he has just obtained his fourth Spirit Ring!"
"With such ability... how can he lead Shrek Academy?!"
Xuan Zi's voice grew louder and louder.
"He—"
"Enough!"
Elder Song let out a sharp reprimand, interrupting Xuan Zi's words. Her face was ashen, and her eyes were filled with fury.
"Xuan Zi, have you said enough?!"
After Elder Song spoke these words, the Sea God Pavilion fell back into silence.
Bei Bei stood in place, his hands clenched tightly into fists, his knuckles turning white from the force, his fingernails almost embedding into his flesh.
His eye sockets were red, and those eyes stared fixedly at Xuan Zi, filled with fury, grievance, and unwillingness.
He gritted his teeth and spoke word by word.
"If it weren't for you..."
His voice trembled slightly, yet he looked at Xuan Zi with an unprecedented firmness.
"Shrek Academy would never have turned out like this!"
Xuan Zi's brow furrowed sharply.
"What did you say?!"
"Even... Ancestor Mu would not have passed away!"
Bei Bei's voice suddenly raised, carrying a sense of accusation.
As soon as these words were said, the gazes of the veteran elders of the Sea God Pavilion inevitably fell upon Bei Bei, completely unexpected that the usually gentle and courteous Bei Bei would suddenly utter such words.
Xuan Zi's expression instantly turned ashen.
"What nonsense are you spouting?!"
"What? Did I say something wrong?"
Bei Bei did not retreat; instead, he took a step forward, his eye sockets red, his eyes blazing with fury.
"If it weren't for the three of you—you, Qian Duoduo, and Yan Shaozhe—being locked up in the Confinement Room of Shrek Academy in the Sky..."
"Ancestor Mu and Elder Lin wouldn't have had to spend the academy's resources to bail you out!"
Hearing this, Elder Song couldn't help but be stunned. She turned her head to look at Lin Huiqun.
Lin Huiqun was silent for a moment, then... silently nodded.
Elder Song's expression became even uglier. She had not known about this matter; or rather, not many people within the Sea God Pavilion knew. Presumably, Mu En chose to keep it hidden, otherwise they would have definitely launched a crusade against Xuan Zi at that time.
"And then... if you hadn't messed up that Yin and Yang menu..."
"Shen Ce wouldn't have been beaten, nor would others have come looking for trouble!"
"At that time, I clearly stated that the other party was a Limit Douluo!"
"If you had been willing to yield, everyone in Shrek Academy wouldn't have completely lost face!"
"Making a disgrace of ourselves in front of so many people!"
Bei Bei's voice grew louder and increasingly agitated.
"And after Ancestor Mu died, not only did you not repent, but instead... you even wasted Ancestor Mu's Spirit Bone!"
"Even after absorbing it, you still failed to Breakthrough to level ninety-nine!"
"And now... you're eyeing other things again!"
"You even want to provoke Beast God Di Tian!"
Bei Bei's gaze stared straight at Xuan Zi.
"Could it be that... Shrek Academy isn't miserable enough as it is now?!"
His voice was full of accusations and questioning.
Everyone was shocked by Bei Bei's words.
Elder Song's gaze shifted back and forth between Bei Bei and Xuan Zi, her face filled with complexity.
She looked at Lin Huiqun, and Lin Huiqun nodded once more. The meaning was very clear: what Bei Bei said... was all true.
As for the matter of the Yin and Yang menu...
A flash of helplessness crossed Lin Huiqun's eyes.
She had once stopped Xuan Zi.
But... Xuan Zi simply wouldn't listen and still chose to act willfully.
Now, hearing Bei Bei analyze these incidents one by one...
The veteran elders of the Sea God Pavilion couldn't help but wear complex expressions. Even Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo lowered their heads deeply; the two of them were considered relatively junior in terms of seniority within the Sea God Pavilion, but now Bei Bei had directly thrown them into the fire.
Bei Bei could be said to be truly showing Life Qi, even directly calling them by their names. Of course, at this moment neither of them dared to make a sound.
At this moment, after listening to Bei Bei's words, everyone really felt that for Shrek Academy to become what it was today, Xuan Zi had truly contributed immensely.
Moreover, not only that, word was that this fellow Xuan Zi had even sent away Zhang Lexuan and Ling Luochen, two Prodigies of Shrek Academy.
It really seemed like Xuan Zi had constantly been weakening Shrek Academy's foundation.
Elder Song took a deep breath, suppressing the fury in her heart.
Xuan Zi's expression had turned as dark as it could possibly be.
He stared fixedly at Bei Bei, the fury in his eyes almost turning into substance.
"Bei Bei!"
His voice was filled with rage.
"I have made contributions to Shrek Academy for so many years!"
"You now... can only bring up these matters to accuse me?!"
His body trembled slightly, his hands clenched tightly into fists.
"How much have I given for Shrek Academy? What have I sacrificed?"
"You greenhorn, what qualifications do you have... to accuse me here?!"
Bei Bei looked at Xuan Zi's face, which was distorted with anger, and remained silent for a moment.
Then, he slowly opened his mouth. This time, his voice was not as hoarse and desperate as before, but rather very calm.
"Shrek Academy..."
"Indeed needs to clear out some tumorous elements."
Bei Bei raised his head, meeting Xuan Zi's gaze.
"I..."
He said word by word.
"In the name of the current Sea God Pavilion Master..."
"Propose—"
"To expel Xuan Zi from Shrek Academy."
