Xuan Zi's Most Righteous Heavy Punch

When faced with danger, people always harbor a sense of wishful thinking.

This point holds true even for the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion.

Although Mu En chose to stand on Gu Tian's side, he had not actually drawn a clear line between himself and Tang San.

Otherwise, none of the Elders would have failed to propose renaming the Sea God Pavilion, the core institution of Shrek Academy, or the core area of Sea God Island.

Except for Xuan Zi, that simple-minded fellow, they all tacitly chose not to bring this up.

It was not until this moment, when the actions of the Sea God Tang San were completely exposed, that they finally made up their minds.

Regardless of what the future holds, the primary goal now is to preserve the reputation of Shrek Academy.

Under the incredulous gazes of many Shrek students, a figure slammed into the statue of the Sea God Tang San, which had stood within Shrek Academy for who knows how many years.

The next moment, a faint layer of light suddenly lit up on the surface of the Sea God Tang San's statue.

That was a defensive Soul Tool specifically set up to protect these statues.

After all, the statues of the First Generation Shrek Seven Devils and the three founders of Shrek Academy were the face of their Shrek Academy.

They had never been damaged in these ten thousand years.

Unexpectedly, they were destroyed today by one of their own.

That layer of light covering the statue was clearly insufficient to defend against the attack of a Level 98 Super Douluo.

Accompanied by a deafening boom, the light barrier shattered instantly!

The statue of the Sea God Tang San simultaneously crumbled into a sky full of rubble.

Seeing this scene, the teachers and students of the entire Shrek Academy widened their eyes, their faces filled with disbelief.

That was the statue of the Sea God Tang San!

The face of their Shrek Academy!

Just like that, in broad daylight, it had been smashed into pieces by someone.

Even though Tang San's reputation had been ruined following the exposure by the Sky Curtain.

But regardless, he was still an ancestor of Shrek Academy and a true deity.

Not just anyone would dare to offend him so openly.

At most, people would curse a few times verbally or in their hearts.

Which brother had such guts to do what they had long wanted to do, but never dared to?

The degree to which the teachers and students of Shrek Academy once worshipped Tang San is exactly the degree to which they now despise him.

As the smoke gradually dissipated, many who recognized the person who had arrived felt a flash of realization in their eyes.

So it was Elder Xuan; that makes sense!

Elder Xuan was the backbone of Shrek Academy and the successor to the Master of the Sea God Pavilion.

As long as it was not a matter of principle, Shrek Academy would always be incredibly lenient toward him.

Had the accident that occurred in the Star Dou Great Forest a few years ago happened to anyone else, even someone like Yan Shaozhe, the personal disciple of Mu En, it likely would not have been brushed off so lightly with a punishment that was hardly a punishment at all for Xuan Zi.

There was no helping it; who else could replace Xuan Zi within Shrek Academy?

Shrek Academy's tolerance for him was entirely out of strategic necessity.

And this was Shrek Academy's response strategy.

By smashing the Sea God statue into pieces, Xuan Zi had directly signaled Shrek's stance.

Therefore, any room for reconciliation between them and the Sea God Tang San was completely gone.

Setting aside a selfish and self-interested individual like the Sea God Tang San, even if it were any other deity with a decent temperament, they would never let this matter rest after being subjected to such blasphemy.

In contrast to the price paid, as long as this message was released, Shrek Academy's reputation would not only remain unscathed but might even reach a new height.

No one would ever again view Shrek Academy and Tang San as birds of a feather.

People would only say that Shrek Academy had acted righteously to eliminate their own, willing to risk the wrath of a god to draw a clear line between themselves and the evil Sea God.

When that time came, the more foul the reputation of the Sea God Tang San became, the better the reputation of Shrek Academy would be.

After destroying the statue of the Sea God Tang San, Xuan Zi seemed unsatisfied and turned his gaze toward the statues of the other members of the First Generation Shrek Seven Devils.

"To have ascended to godhood alongside the evil Sea God Tang San, they must be birds of a feather with him!"

"Today, I shall purge these stains from Shrek!"

Looking at the other statues of the First Generation Shrek Seven Devils, a cold glint flashed in Xuan Zi's eyes as he charged toward the nearest statue, that of Dai Mubai.

The next moment, the statue of Dai Mubai was reduced to a pile of rubble.

Just as Xuan Zi prepared to destroy the next statue, an aged figure blocked his path.

It was none other than the Sea God Pavilion Elder, the Divine Eagle Douluo, Elder Song.

"Xuan Zi, what are you doing?"

Elder Song said with a headache, "Our agreed-upon plan did not include destroying the other statues."

"They are definitely birds of a feather with that evil Sea God Tang San anyway."

Xuan Zi said in a tone that implied it was only natural, "Let's just destroy them all together, so they don't continue to tarnish Shrek's reputation."

"Xuan Zi, you can't generalize everything..."

"They are our ancestors after all, and didn't it say on there?"

Looking at Xuan Zi like this, Elder Song said with a headache, "There were also deities who stood on the side of us Humans."

"Ancient records state that the First Generation Shrek Seven Devils were as close as brothers and sisters; they must all be birds of a feather."

Xuan Zi wore an expression of someone who had nothing left to lose, stubbornly insisting on his own opinion, "Anyway, I don't think I did anything wrong."

"I get angry now whenever I hear the words Sea God!"

"Therefore, I am resigning from my position as Deputy Master of the Sea God Pavilion."

As soon as these words were spoken, Elder Song hadn't even reacted yet, but the few people who had just arrived grew anxious.

"Elder Xuan, isn't it just changing the names of the Sea God Pavilion and Sea God Island?"

Yan Shaozhe said in a sincere tone, "I will definitely raise both hands in favor at the next meeting."

"That's right, Elder Xuan, you are the pillar of our academy. How could you leave just because of such a trivial matter?"

Xian Lin'er also hurriedly added.

On this matter, even Xian Lin'er and Yan Shaozhe, those two rivals, had rarely reached a consensus.

It was true; if Elder Xuan left, once something happened to Elder Mu, who could carry the banner of Shrek?

In any case, the two of them certainly couldn't, and the others would likely struggle as well.

"Xuan Zi, are you throwing a tantrum at me?"

Looking at Xuan Zi, although Mu En's words were calm, they made everyone present feel an invisible pressure.

"Elder Mu, you know I didn't mean that..."

Seeing that the person speaking was Mu En, Xuan Zi changed his previous attitude, and his tone was no longer as tough as before.

"So that means I wronged you?" Mu En said coldly.

"No, I..."

Xuan Zi opened his mouth, but couldn't squeeze out a single word for a long time.

"Since you have nothing better to do, go to Star Luo Imperial City and protect that little guy for me."

Seeing this, Mu En waved his hand and said, "Unless there is something important, you are not allowed to return to Shrek Academy."

In the series of image-cleansing plans for Shrek Academy that followed, Xuan Zi would not only be of no use but might even mess things up.

After all, within Shrek Academy, the only person who could keep Xuan Zi in check was Mu En, and him alone.

And he had his own matters to attend to; he couldn't possibly keep an eye on Xuan Zi all day long!

Rather than that, it would be better to let Xuan Zi go to Star Luo Imperial City to shine and make himself useful.

This arrangement was for the best for both parties.
