The situation continued to escalate.
Rumors had an enormous impact on one's reputation, especially this kind of half-true, half-false scandal. It directly painted Yan Shaozhe as a scumbag who abandoned lovers after seducing them, someone who went after both men and women, while Qian Duoduo was portrayed as an exceptionally devoted yet sexually confused gay man.
The two of them each received a title.
Shrek's Number One Playboy—Yan Shaozhe.
Shrek's Number One Devotee—Qian Duoduo.
Although these two nicknames did not seem to carry any special meaning at first glance on Douluo Continent, to those who had read "Dragon and Phoenix Entanglement," they sounded strange no matter how one heard them.
That made them unable to accept it.
On Douluo Continent, when had a Titled Douluo not stood at the pinnacle of the soul master world, revered wherever they went?
As the deans of Shrek Academy, their status was comparable to that of imperial monarchs (Path to Death! If we're not beating up Shrek, then who are we beating up?), and this blow to their reputations immediately made Yan Shaozhe and the others see red.
Even Sea God Pavilion took the matter seriously, going so far as to convene a Sea God Pavilion Meeting over it.
At a time when the Four Great Empires could go to war at any moment, any slight disturbance could stir Shrek's sensitive nerves, much less rumors that had spread across nearly the entire continent.
Even Lin Yun himself had not expected that his wicked plan would truly alarm Sea God Pavilion and even trigger a Sea God Pavilion Meeting.
"Honored One, the Myriad Demon King says that Shrek Academy has begun searching at full force for the person behind the sale of 'Dragon and Phoenix Entanglement.' He asks what you intend to do next."
