章 598: Chapter 40 Give Me a Spot in the Top Four_1

"Alas, Shrek Academy hasn't sent anyone to update the new participant list yet. It looks like Shrek really has given up on the Soul Master competition this time"

Xu Jiawei sighed.

The fact that Shrek was giving up on the Soul Master competition wasn't really a big deal.

The problem was, what would happen if the Sun-Moon Spiritual Guide Academy took the championship? Where would the Douluo Three Kingdoms put their face then?

"Brother, don't think too much. We can't exactly send people to deal with the Sun-Moon Empire's team in secret, can we?"

Hearing Xu Jiawei's dilemma, Xu Jiujiu felt helpless as well.

But, there was nothing they could do to change this situation, was there?

"Besides that, I'm very puzzled about one more thing. Shrek Academy is obviously full of strong individuals, and we had already sent someone to verify that the strength of that group of evil Soul Masters wasn't that great, yet they ended up severely injured and dead."

Xu Jiawei racked his brain but couldn't understand.

How could a complete wipeout happen when they had a level 98 Titled Douluo there?

Was this Titled Douluo made of paper?

Xu Jiujiu looked at Xu Jiawei with a helpless expression.

The questions her brother was asking today were quite sharp.

She had no answers.

Xu Jiujiu had no choice but to change the topic. "Brother, actually, I came to see you today to tell you that the old antique in the Starlight Auction House has been sold."

"Old antique, what old antique?"

Xu Jiawei paused for a moment.

Xu Jiujiu said helplessly, "It's that Soul Devouring Evil Blade which has been passed in auction dozens of times, starting at 300,000 and then lowered its starting price to 100,000 golden soul coins, and was nearing its cost price."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei's face showed a look of realization, "So, it's that blade, huh.

Heh, I would really like to know who the smart aleck that wanted to pick up a bargain bought that evil blade."

A carving knife worth 100,000 is good.

But, one must be alive to buy it and also be alive to use it, right?

You should know that we've investigated the previous thirty-seven owners, none of whom ended well.

This blade could truly be called an ill-omened blade.

Whoever used it met bad luck and died young.

Xu Jiujiu shook her head, "I'm not sure of the specifics, I only know that the person who bought the carving knife is a member of the Sun-Moon Empire's team."

"So, it's youth not fearing the tiger. Well, it's good. We've recouped the cost of the blade and will be able to eliminate one of the Sun-Moon Empire's genius students. We've made a killing."

Xu Jiawei felt this was the best news he had heard today.

But, the next moment, the smile that had appeared on Xu Jiawei's face vanished in an instant.

Even Xu Jiujiu's pretty face turned serious.

"Hahahaha."

"This old man, Xuan Zi from Shrek Academy, has come uninvited. I hope the Star Luo Emperor doesn't mind."

Along with the laughter, everyone in the hall saw a disheveled old man appear, seemingly out of nowhere, who carried a wine gourd on his waist and held a large chicken leg in his hand and had shiny oil stains all over his clothes.

Undoubtedly, this man was Xuan Zi.

"Xu Jiawei has seen Elder Xuan."

Xu Jiawei stood up from his throne, clasped his hands together, and said to Xuan Zi, "I did not know of Elder Xuan's arrival and failed to meet you from afar. Please do not take offense."

He was very respectful.

In front of Xuan Zi, he did not show any airs befitting an emperor of a nation.

And that was understandable.

After all, the strong do not like to be bound by rules.

They are the ones who set the rules.

The current rules of the Douluo Three Kingdoms were decided by Shrek.

Even if Xu Jiawei was reluctant, he had to maintain his respect for Xuan Zi.

"You're an emperor, no need for this with me. Sit down and let's talk."

Xuan Zi waved his hand dismissively. He disliked this troublesome formality the most.

Of course.

If someone were in front of him, cutting through the pretense was something that would truly displease him.

"Then Jiawei shall comply respectfully."

To maintain the dignity of being an emperor, Jiawei still chose to sit down and talk.

At this, Xuan Zi nodded with satisfaction.

Look.

Even if one is the emperor of a country, what of it?

Isn't he still at his beck and call, standing when told to stand, sitting when told to sit, like a pet, a dog?

That's right.

In his heart, the rulers of the Douluo Three Kingdoms had no status or identity to speak of.

If it weren't for groveling at the feet of Shrek Academy, how could they maintain their present standing?

"Your Majesty."

"Your Majesty, what has happened?"

"Are you alright?"

Just then, a series of exclamations came from outside the Imperial Palace Hall.

They sensed a powerful presence entering the imperial palace, but before they could intercept, it had already rushed into the hall.

"I am fine; the newcomer is not an enemy, but an elder from the Sea God's Pavilion at Shrek Academy. Everyone, do not come in."

Jiawei's voice boomed out, calming the strong ones outside the Imperial Palace Hall.

As expected.

After hearing his words, everyone went silent.

Shrek Academy...

They were also not to be trifled with.

If His Majesty says there's no trouble, then hopefully, there is indeed no trouble.

"This little girl is quite fetching."

Xuan Zi's gaze fell once more upon Jiu Jiu.

At being looked at this way, Jiu Jiu's complexion changed.

"Elder, please do not misunderstand, this is my sister, not an outsider."

"Elder, you can speak frankly; Jiu Jiu will not tell anyone else."

Seeing this, Jiawei hastily clarified Jiu Jiu's identity.

He could see.

Xuan Zi might act flamboyantly, but the fleeting glances showed that he most certainly had secrets on this visit that he could not disclose.

And Jiu Jiu in the hall had become an unstable element in his eyes.

"Oh, is that so?"

Xuan Zi nodded as if enlightened, then shifted his gaze from Jiu Jiu back onto Jiawei, "Actually, I did come to you today for a matter."

"Elder, feel free to speak; as long as it is within Jiawei's power, I will do my utmost to cooperate."

"Your attitude is commendable, so I'll be straightforward."

Xuan Zi nodded with satisfaction, "In fact, it's nothing major. I was simply looking to secure a top four spot in the Soul Master competition for Shrek Academy. Hmm... If within your capacity, I could accept second place for Shrek as well."

"What?"

"What?"

Upon hearing this, the siblings Jiawei and Jiu Jiu were both taken aback in confusion and shock.

What kind of request was this?

To guarantee Shrek Academy a top four finish?

And even, providing them with a runner-up spot wasn't out of the question...

Ha, you might be able to accept it, but I cannot!

Soon enough, Jiawei was no longer shocked; his heart stilled, and he almost wanted to laugh.

"Elder, there's something Jiawei would like to ask. You want to secure a top four spot for Shrek Academy, but have you changed the competitors from Shrek Academy?"

"Change? I would like to, but there's no one to change with."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Zi's brow lifted, "If the team members had really been changed, would I need to go through the embarrassment of asking you for a top four spot?

We'd fight our way up there, so why bother with all this hassle?"
