Chapter 613: Chapter 49 Tournament Ends_1

"What a Gluttonous Douluo, what a Xuan Zi!"

The voice of Xu Jiawei was icy cold, as if it was squeezed out through clenched teeth.

If it weren't for Xuan Zi's overwhelming strength and his exceptionally noble status at Shrek Academy, he really wanted to send Dai Hao to capture Xuan Zi immediately and behead him for all to see.

You must know that the ones Xuan Zi killed were not only rivals of Shrek Academy but also the hope of the Xingluo Empire.

Originally, due to Shrek Academy, talents from the Heavenly Soul, Xingluo, and Dou Spirit Empires all left their home countries to study at Shrek.

Talents who could already become Soul Ancestors or even Soul Kings before the age of twenty were rare indeed.

Yet today, Xuan Zi went as far as to kill fourteen in one go and also cut down a Soul Douluo who could be considered the pillar of society.

Counting this, Xu Jiawei felt so heartbroken that he struggled to breathe.

Who knows how many of those children could normally have become Soul Douluos, not to mention Titled Douluos?

Or to say, how many could become Sixth-Level, Seventh-Level Soul Masters?

Maybe one Soul Sage does not significantly enhance an empire.

But a Seventh-Level Soul Master is a strategic weapon.

To produce a fixed Seventh-Level Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon would take only a few days...

"Your Majesty, shall we now make Xuan Zi's actions public and let the people of the world know of his crimes?"

Dai Hao couldn't help but ask.

Xu Jiawei shook his head, "Let's not, for now. If it must be done, let's wait until after the Soul Master tournament is over; otherwise, the impact would be too significant."

He really wanted Xuan Zi to fall from grace.

But acting now would also bring trouble to the Xingluo Empire.

So, it's better to wait.

"Yes."

Dai Hao nodded, then after seeing the somewhat distracted Xu Jiawei and uttering a wish for his well-being, he left.

However.

The moment he disappeared from the great hall,

Princess Xu Jiujiu, dressed in a bright red dress, walked out from a side chamber of the great hall.

"Elder brother."

Her pretty face was also exceedingly solemn.

She had heard the conversation between Xu Jiawei and Dai Hao.

As the princess of Xingluo, she too could understand Xu Jiawei's worries.

"Jiujiu, Shrek Academy has truly gone too far this time."

In front of his sister, Xu Jiawei no longer restrained the fury in his heart.

"What do they take themselves for? Sole rulers of Soul Land?"

"Do they really see the Douluo Three Kingdoms as mere vassals, to be manipulated as they please, killing wantonly within our borders without fearing the consequences?"

Xu Jiawei's face contorted with rage.

Like a lion gone mad.

"Fine, even if the Douluo Three Kingdoms need Shrek's help to contend against the Sun-Moon Empire, that should only amount to a partnership."

"Our forbearance signifies our magnanimity, not that we lack temper."

After listening to Xu Jiawei's rant, Xu Jiujiu's brows slightly furrowed.

Not to mention other aspects, in Xu Jiawei's words, she heard a deep sense of grievance.

An emperor of a nation has been driven to such a state, which clearly shows how outrageous Shrek had been.

"Elder brother, just like you said earlier, what can we do right now?

We still can't confront Shrek directly, so we have to endure for now.

I also suggest that we report Xuan Zi's actions directly to Shrek and ask them to handle it. Perhaps that's the best choice."

Thinking about Xuan Zi's power, Xu Jiujiu felt a deep sense of powerlessness in her heart.

Such an important person was beyond their ability to deal with; it was better left to Shrek.

"That's a good idea, I also want to see if Shrek Academy can give me a satisfactory explanation."

Having vented his frustration and with the counsel of Xu Jiujiu, Xu Jiawei had calmed down quite a bit.

"Elder brother, there's another matter..."

"What is it? Just speak frankly."

"I want to ask how should we arrange Shrek Academy's next opponent?"

Xu Jiujiu asked with some concern, "After such an incident, no one can guarantee the future opponents of Shrek won't also encounter such a massacre."

Xu Jiawei heard this and paused.

This was indeed a problem.

Who knows if Xuan Zi will go mad and attack Shrek Academy's upcoming opponents?

Just thinking about it, Xu Jiawei felt that the possibility was very high.

After a deep breath, Xu Jiawei said solemnly, "I cannot let the people of the Xingluo Empire be victimized any longer. Hence, in the following matches, Shrek Academy's opponents, no matter what, cannot be from the Xingluo Empire."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Xu Jiujiu, already having a plan in mind, "At a time like this, we can only impose hardship on the academies of the Heavenly Soul Empire and the Dou Spirit Empire. The Three Kingdoms of Douluo are connected, it's time to share some of the burden with them."

Xu Jiujiu heard this and nodded slightly, indicating her understanding.

What Xu Jiawei said was correct.

It was indeed time for the other two nations to share some of the burden.

After all, Xuan Zi was like a mad dog, unpredictable and dangerous.

...

Meanwhile,

Wang Yan led Wang Dong, Dai Huabin, Beibei, and the rest of the Shrek group back to their hotel.

Though they had won the day's match, no one had a trace of joy on their faces for the victory.

As the group entered the room, Xu Sanshi could no longer contain his emotions. He burst out with a curse, "Damn it, this feels worse than a loss; it was a hollow victory."


Chapter 614: Chapter 49 Tournament Ends_2

Although it hasn't been confirmed that Xuan Zi attacked other academies, everyone understands what happened.

Apart from Xuan Zi, they couldn't think of anyone who would do something so outrageous and bloody.

"That's right, I think it would be better to compete fairly on the field, win or lose, we aren't afraid to lose."

Jiang Nannan, exceptionally, didn't hold an opposing view to Xu Sanshi.

"What everyone said is very true, winning or losing is no longer important. The fact that our academy's students can participate in this competition, I think, is a victory."

Wang Yan nodded, pleased that the students had such an awareness.

But the next moment, he became worried again.

"Teacher Wang, what's wrong?"

Xiao Xiao noticed Wang Yan's abnormal state.

"I think Teacher Wang is worried..."

"He's afraid that what Elder Xuan has done will be exposed. This will cause great harm to Shrek Academy's reputation and might provoke some students."

"Even, for Elder Xuan... it will have a great impact."

Beibei saw the worries in Wang Yan's heart.

What he didn't say was that things might be more severe than he imagined.

If this matter is exploited by someone with an agenda, Xuan Zi might be forced out of Shrek Academy...

At that time, it would be another major blow to Shrek Academy.

"I should write down what happened here in detail and send it back to the academy. Let Dean Yan Shaozhe and the elders of Sea God's Pavilion be aware so that we're not caught off guard if something truly unfavorable for Shrek Academy and Elder Xuan happens."

Wang Yan, with a cultivation level of a 50-plus rank Soul King leading the Shrek squad, must possess extraordinary abilities.

This calmness and planning are not what ordinary people could compare with.

Informing the academy in advance and being prepared is the most correct choice.

After all, no matter how outrageous Xuan Zi's actions are, he is still one of Shrek Academy's elders, a Pillar of Heaven.

It must not collapse.

"Hahaha, you stinky kids are back?"

"How was the competition today? Was it exceptionally smooth?"

Just then, a burst of loud laughter came from outside the door.

Everyone looked over and saw Xuan Zi, covered in stains and staggering in, drunk.

The people present subconsciously stepped back.

In his speech, Xuan Zi vaguely mentioned the day's events.

At this moment, no one had any illusions anymore.

Undoubtedly.

The murderer who killed over a dozen contestants and the dean from Yun Luo Academy was Xuan Zi.

"What do you mean by this?"

Xuan Zi frowned slightly.

His drunkenness cleared up a bit.

He wasn't foolish.

He just couldn't be bothered to think.

Now, however, he saw disgust and aversion on everyone's faces.

"Elder Xuan, we would rather you not do things like you did today.

We don't need such victories."

In such a moment, facing a powerful figure like Xuan Zi, only Beibei, as Mu En's grandson, had the right to speak.

"Lad, what do you mean by that?

Do you even understand your own strength? If I hadn't made a move, could you have won against Yun Luo Academy?

Hmph, if you had put up a bit of a fight, I wouldn't have had to resort to such means. Isn't it better to find a quiet place, peacefully eat my chicken legs and have a drink?"

The attitude of the others annoyed Xuan Zi.

He coldly laughed in response.

These guys are incompetent and now they even complain about him.

"But..."

"We would rather lose than win in such a manner."

Beibei responded firmly.

His resolve reflected the thoughts of everyone present.

At worst, losing might mean being laughed at.

But that was certainly better than carrying a reputation for infamy.

They really felt they couldn't lift their heads in front of others.

"Heh, that's a woman's perspective."

Xuan Zi scoffed, "Lose? You may be able to withstand it, but Shrek Academy can't afford to, neither can I.

I won't allow Shrek Academy under my leadership to fail to make it to the top four."

"But..."

Beibei wanted to say something in response, but Xuan Zi waved his hand, interrupting him, "There's nothing to 'but' about, what do I, Xuan Zi, have to explain to anyone?"

You only need to remember that in this world, the one with the biggest fist is always right.

Now my fist is bigger than all of yours combined, just watch what I do and don't ask any more questions."

Everyone was rendered speechless by Xuan Zi's approach.

Xuan Zi was right.

Whoever has the bigger fist gets to call the shots.

They simply couldn't change Xuan Zi's mind.

All they could do was passively endure the consequences that Xuan Zi brought.

"Alright, that's enough, everyone scram.

I'm tired and need to rest."

Xuan Zi made an impatient shooing gesture.

He lay down on his bed, carelessly took out a chicken leg from a Spatial Soul Guidance Device, and started gnawing on it.

With the other hand, he grabbed a flask of wine and poured it into his mouth.

Some shook their heads, some sighed silently, all filled with helplessness.

But they obediently left all the same.

...

After a full 8 days, the round-robin tournament finally concluded.

A total of 16 teams stood out, also known as the top sixteen.

The team with the highest score was from group three first place Imperial Sun Moon Soul Academy.

The first of group four, Xingluo Imperial Academy.

The first of group five, Sky Soul Royal Academy.

The first of group six, Fighting Spirit Royal Academy.

Besides that, there was also the first of group two, Shrek Academy.

However, regarding their ranking, there were complaints all around, filled with dissatisfaction.

Because they hadn't fought a single match.

Any team that was matched with them would surrender and concede before the match even began.

After all, the lesson from Yun Luo Academy was right there.

They dared not follow in Yun Luo Academy's footsteps.

Despite His Majesty the Emperor saying that the matter was still under investigation, everyone understood that it definitely had something to do with Shrek Academy.

Losing a match is a minor issue, but losing one's life is not worth it.

Surrendering was the best choice for them.

...

"Hahaha, Shrek is really something else, making it into the top sixteen all confused."

"I think this Shrek squad will definitely go down in history, those guys will surely be remembered through the ages."

"That's right, the higher their rank, the more disgraceful it is for them."

Inside the hotel, the people from Imperial Sun Moon Soul Academy gathered together, having a lively time.

Of course, their topic was also concerning Shrek's affairs.

After all, this was currently the trending hot news.

It was the talk of the town, and not discussing it seemed somewhat out of place.

Ignoring Xiao Hongchen and the others' bantering, Qin Xiao got up and approached Elder Ma, "Elder Ma, I know you have contacts with the dean, and I think we should make good use of the recent events at Shrek Academy."

"Of course, it's time to stir up more hatred against Shrek Academy. Now that everyone is discussing Shrek's dark secrets, why not pretend to dig up some dirt and let everyone know about it?"

"But we don't have any evidence."

Elder Ma is usually very serious and not one to joke around.

However, Qin Xiao felt that Elder Ma also had another trait, which was stubbornness.

Inflexible and uncompromising.

"Spreading rumors is as easy as opening your mouth, who needs evidence?

Besides, the eyes of the public are keen, just give them a lead, and naturally, someone will dig deeper."

Qin Xiao thought back to the distant Blue Star.

That world was full of rumors.

All kinds of incidents, all kinds of gossip, there was simply too much of it.

And the reason rumors could spread was just a few unreliable truths and a large number of onlookers.

Now that there were onlookers, all that was missing were some unfounded events.

"Keep talking..." Elder Ma's eyes gleamed, as if seeing the gateway to a new world.

The fire of gossip in his chest was already blazing furiously.

Ah, this person is still too straightforward. Twisting the truth, isn't that easy to do? Qin Xiao shook his head with resignation, saying, "For instance, before, when Shrek played a rigged match against Sky Spirit Academy, your investigation revealed that Shrek Academy paid three million golden soul coins to bribe Sky Spirit Academy.

Another example, the reason Yun Luo Academy suffered so badly was entirely because they tried to jack up the price and couldn't reach an agreement with Shrek Academy, angering a powerful individual from Shrek, which led to the disaster.

Oh right, to make it sound more believable, we need to add a name for that powerful individual...

Let's call him Xuan Zi."
