Elder Cai took a deep breath and said gravely, "Sky Phoenix Douluo, although, if we only have this piece of evidence, it's very difficult to justify taking action against the Spirit Pagoda!"
At first listen, the sudden disappearance of a large batch of Soul Power within the Spirit Pagoda indeed raises suspicions…
But if we were to act against the Spirit Pagoda based merely on verbal claims, should there be a turnaround, the relationship between Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda would hit rock bottom, and we might even be criticized for exploiting the situation!
Leng Yaozhu nodded, "Naturally, in addition to what I have just mentioned, every once in a while, a portion of the disciples will secretly leave the Pagoda, seemingly to meet with a certain power."
"If the Elders wish to investigate the Spirit Pagoda, they might as well start with this lead!"
By dispatching a powerful Elder of the Sea God Pavilion to follow these disciples, we could clarify the entire situation!
After she spoke, Tang Yinmeng's beautiful eyes slightly hardened, "Sky Phoenix Douluo, the information you have provided is very useful; we can almost certainly conclude that the Spirit Pagoda is in league with the Holy Spirit Cult!"
Elder Cai then stroked his chin, "Hmm, to ensure that nothing goes wrong, we will pursue this information in a few days' time!"
Long Yeyue expressed her gratitude, "Sky Phoenix Douluo, thank you for providing us with this information!"
Leng Yaozhu gave a faint smile, stood up from her seat, "Since the matter has been discussed, I shall take my leave! Elders, take care!"
Staying outside for too long might attract the attention of Qiangugu Dongfeng, and it would then be troublesome to catch him red-handed in his involvement with the Spirit Pagoda!
With these words, she turned and left under the watchful eyes of everyone…
After her departure, Elder Cai's expression turned grave as he looked at the other Elders and said, "Elders, what do you think about the credibility of the Sky Phoenix Douluo's words?"
Turbid World pondered, "She shouldn't be deceiving us; I believe we can fully trust her!"
Long Yeyue frowned, "Don't be careless, don't forget she is the Vice Tower Master of the Spirit Pagoda. If she conspires with that Qiangugu Dongfeng… we could very well fall into a trap!"
Lan Muzi nodded in agreement, "Indeed! If this leads to irreversible damage to the Academy and the Continent falls completely under the control of the Holy Spirit Cult, it would be a disaster!"
Feng Wu Yu turned his gaze towards Yun Ming in doubt, "The Pavilion Master and Sky Phoenix Douluo seem to have some history. I wonder what you think about her trustworthiness?"
Yun Ming, who had been silent all along, suddenly remarked, "Leng Yaozhu does not seem like someone who would lie!"
After a pause, he continued, "Notify the Tang Sect and the other powers. It is time to make the Holy Spirit Cult restrain themselves a little!"
Currently, Shrek Academy indeed could not suppress the Holy Spirit Cult, but if they thought they could act recklessly, they were being too naïve!
Because from the very beginning, Shrek Academy had not called upon other powers to strike against the Holy Spirit Cult, and now was the time to do so!
…
Meanwhile, Tang Wulin and his group, who had already left Ming City and arrived in another city, were looking up at a certain academy in front of them!
The Skyfixed Star Soul Master Academy!
Xie Xie felt a bit uneasy, "Most of us are only Soul Elders. Isn't it a bit too audacious to challenge the senior students of these academies?"
They might just get beaten up so badly they won't recognize their own mothers!
Gu Yue glanced at him, "Idiot, isn't this to test the power of the Battle Armor?"
Xu Xiaoyan chimed in, "Exactly, exactly. Don't you want to try it out, Xie Xie?"
Xie Xie gritted his teeth, a bit hesitantly, "This… Of course I want to, but if we lose too badly…"
Tang Wulin smiled, "It's just a contest. If we lose, we lose, that's all. Our main goal is to test the power of the Battle Armor and improve our combat experience, not worrying about being eliminated like in the final exams!"
To be honest, he was also very eager to see how powerful the Battle Armors he had meticulously forged were!
Ye Xinglan didn't speak, but the intense battle spirit burning in her eyes already said everything...
The last duel at the Blacksmith Association didn't satisfy her at all. Such a good opportunity was rare, and naturally, she had to seize it!
By her side, Xu Lizhi seemed not to care about the duel at all, and turned to Ye Xinglan with a naive smile, "Sister Xinglan, do you want to eat some buns to replenish yourself?"
Ye Xinglan nodded, "That sounds good!"
Just then, Xie Xie snatched a bun and bit into it fiercely, "Forget it, if we lose, we lose. Let's just show off our Battle Armors!"
Xu Lizhi, seeing his buns being taken, complained with a touch of resentment, "That was meant for Sister Xinglan!"
Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan both covered their mouths and chuckled, "Pfft!"
Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Tang Wulin clenched his fists and said, "Since everyone is ready, let's go!"
After speaking, the group stepped into the Skyfixed Star Soul Master Academy...
No sooner had they entered than they caught the attention of the surrounding students of the Skyfixed Star Soul Master Academy, sparking curious discussions...
"Hey? Who are these guys? Their clothes don't look like our academy's uniform, do they?"
"Could they be from another academy? But what would another academy be doing here? Looking for trouble?"
"Those girls are really pretty, especially the one with the light blue hair!"
At that moment, a voice interrupted the noisy discussions...
"What are you all discussing? Shouldn't you hurry off to class?"
The speaker was a middle-aged man with an air of authority!
The surrounding students dispersed rapidly at the sight of him, like birds startled by the twang of a bow...
Only then did the middle-aged man turn his eyes towards Tang Wulin and his companions and walked over...
He asked with a puzzled tone, "Who are you? What brings you to the Skyfixed Star Soul Master Academy?"
Tang Wulin replied with a smile, "This teacher, we are outer courtyard students from Shrek Academy. We came here this time hoping to temper ourselves through real combat with students from the Skyfixed Star Soul Master Academy!"
The middle-aged man was taken aback, "You mean you're representing Shrek Academy here?"
Tang Wulin shook his head, "No, we only represent ourselves!"
The middle-aged man looked thoughtful, "I see, I am Li Zhilong, Director of Teaching at the Skyfixed Soul Master Academy, and I was also a student of Shrek Academy, though just an outer courtyard student!"
Xie Xie exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? Who would have thought we'd meet a senior here!"
Xu Xiaoyan blinked her beautiful eyes, "Since you're a senior, doesn't that make things much easier for us?"
The stern look on Li Zhilong's face faded away, and he said with a touch of amusement, "Don't worry, you are my juniors after all. You've come all the way from Shrek City, so of course, I should make some arrangements for you!"
