Compensation?
Rest Room of the competition Organizing Committee.
Tang San was taken back by the Staff and a Healing-Type Spirit Master was assigned to treat his injuries.
Since the scene had already been cleaned up by Dugu Bo, the organizers sent out many people, and the final investigation results all pointed to Shi Nian committing murder and robbery, which was witnessed and killed by Dugu Bo.
Salas, representing the Spirit Hall and one of the organizers, clicked his tongue in astonishment, "Poison Douluo, this is only your side of the story. How can I be sure that this is the truth of the matter?"
Salas certainly wanted to kill Tang San, Dugu Bo intervened and saved him, which made him somewhat unhappy.
Dugu Bo sneered, "What, do I look like someone who would lie?"
Xue Qinghe, representing the Heaven Dou Empire, quickly interjected, "I naturally believe His Your Excellency Dugu. Bishop Salas, the incident has already occurred. We shouldn't be fixated on the Good Samaritan, but rather focus on providing medical treatment to the injured Competitor and offering compensation to the affected academies."
"His reputation was already extremely bad at the Shi Nian, so why is Bishop Salas defending him like this? Could it be that you're behind this?"
Salas scoffed, "I have no interest in dealing with such a morally questionable person."
Since the start of the Preliminary Round, there have been multiple cases of people going missing.
Therefore, the Heaven Dou Empire paid close attention to this matter, and not only Xue Qinghe, but also Xue Xing and his nephew were sent out to participate in the investigation.
Seeing that Tang San had escaped with his life, Prince Xue Xing was dissatisfied.
Fortunately, this wasn't his trump card; the real show was yet to come!
At Xue Xing's instruction, Xue Beng spoke up, "Imperial elder brother, you're wrong. Our most urgent task is to investigate Tang San's situation and whether it's related to the previous cases of missing Competitor!"
"If we can confirm that Shi Nian is the real culprit, it will give the other victimized Battle Team some closure."
Xue Qinghe calmly dealt with the Xue Beng.
In the previous cases of Competitor going missing, Dugu Bo had been following Shi Nian closely, so he naturally knew the locations of the incidents, but he simply didn't take action at the time.
Wu Qi had been maintaining close contact with Xue Qinghe, and this document had been handed over to Xue Qinghe not long ago.
Xue Qinghe tossed the documents to Xue Beng and coldly snorted, "I'm not like you, who only knows how to talk big. I've already investigated thoroughly!"
Upon learning that Tang San had been injured and rescued, Flender felt melancholy and anxious.
He knew that Shi Nian was at odds with them, but he never expected that the other party would resort to such a vicious act.
He just hoped that Tang San hadn't been affected, otherwise he really didn't know how to explain it to Tang Hao.
When he was led into the Organizing Committee's Rest Room, Xue Qinghe and the others had just finished their argument.
"Greetings to His Poison Douluo, His Highness the Crown Prince, and His Prince."
Flender bowed respectfully.
Given the huge commotion caused by the Canghui Academy, it was inevitable that their spots would be revoked. However, an agreement on compensation for the various Battle Team could not be reached.
Some people believe that all of the Canghui Academy's assets should be sold off, with a portion used to compensate the victims and the remainder used for the competition's construction.
Flender dared not interrupt the Organizing Committee's decision. After Tang San woke up, he immediately left the Organizing Committee with his men.
Shrek Academy.
Upon learning of Tang San's ordeal, the Shrek Seven Devils were united in their hatred and indignation!
"Damn Shi Nian, how dare he treat his Little San so cruelly!" Liu Erlong angrily slammed his fist on the door frame.
After being healed by Healing-Type Spirit Master, Tang San's body was no longer in serious condition, except for a severe headache and occasional mental confusion.
"Little San, are you alright?" Yu Xiaogang asked with concern. "By the way, who saved you?"
"It's Dugu Bo," Flender said.
Although the two sides had a grudge, Dugu Bo had indeed done them a favor in this matter, and both morally and logically, they should visit him to express their gratitude.
Unexpectedly, Yu Xiaogang sneered, "Heh, what a disgusting fellow."
In his view, Dugu Bo knew about the grudges between the two sides, yet he deliberately made them owe him favors, clearly intending to disgust them and force them to submit.
"Flender, you're getting more and more confused! How could you fall for such an obvious trick? And you call yourself the Dean of Shrek!"
Flender could only manage a wry smile.
Even so, this kindness is truly genuine.
As a Soul Master, shouldn't one be clear about right and wrong?
Unfortunately, Yu Xiaogang wouldn't listen to him at all, and instead accused him of being brainwashed.
Left with no other choice, Flender had to go find Dugu Bo alone.
"Teacher, my Soul Tool!"
With his headache subsiding, Tang San noticed the condition of his Soul Tool and anxiously inquired about it.
Yu Xiaogang sighed, "According to the Organizing Committee's investigation, Shi Nian attacked you, he searched for treasures in your Soul Tool and erased your spiritual imprint."
There were also signs of burning at the scene, which the Organizing Committee believed was an attempt to destroy evidence of the Shi Nian.
The blueprints in Tang San's Soul Tool were used as a ignition source and burned to ashes.
Tang San breathed a slight sigh of relief.
He was already dead at the Shi Nian, and even if the other party had seen the blueprints for the Hidden Weapons, the secret was taken underground.
His only worry was Poison Douluo. If the other party had also seen it and leaked the blueprints for the Hidden Weapons, it would be a huge problem.
But now, he can't worry about those things.
Since tomorrow is their match against the Canghui Academy, and the other side pulled this stunt before the match, they should consider what kind of compensation they want.
The following morning, the Heaven Dou Empire Division Organizing Committee of the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament issued a notice to the entire continent.
The announcement clearly stated that Shi Nian had harmed opposing students before the match in order to win for his own Battle Team, and outlined the punishment for the entire Canghui Academy.
Canghui Academy has lost all the competitions it has participated in and is about to participate in.
Originally, the Royal Fight Team Three was forced to withdraw from the competition, which caused them to become the bottom team.
Now that the Canghui Academy Team has been ruled to have lost by the rules, it's equivalent to the Royal Fight Team Three winning a match and escaping the embarrassing position of last place.
Whether this judgment was influenced by the Heaven Dou Royal Family's personal interests remains unknown.
Regarding compensation, the announcement did not specify, but apart from the Shrek Academy, other academies received some form of compensation, while Shrek Academy received nothing.
Yu Xiaogang was naturally unwilling to accept this and wanted to go to the Organizing Committee for an explanation, but in the end he was dismissed.
The reason is simple: to treat Tang San's injuries, they hired Soul Emperor -Healing-Type Spirit Master from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, whose service fee was not low, so this was considered compensation for them.
Moreover, Shrek Academy was already unpopular, so the Imperial Family's decision to send such a Healing-Type Spirit Master to help them was already more than generous.
The Spirit Master Competition has become a major focus of attention across the continent due to this unexpected turn of events.
After his battle with Dugu Bo, Tang Hao spent a long time healing before his injuries stabilized.
When he arrived in Heaven Dou City, the Spirit Master Competition had just begun.
With Bone Douluo constantly present at the venue, his presence would inevitably be noticed. Given the stable progress of the competition, he chose to leave Heaven Dou City and travel to other places to gather information.
