[Dou Er Period]
Sea God Pavilion, lounge.
Yan Shaozhe stood frozen in place, his eyes locked onto the blindingly bright golden characters on the Sky Screen outside the window.
His mind was a complete blank, and the sound of his own heart hammering wildly filled his ears.
How could it be me?
Why would it be me?!
He had just delivered that impassioned speech as the spokesperson for Shrek Academy, pulling the academy's reputation back from the brink of the abyss.
Yet now, this mysterious Sky Screen had dealt him a resounding slap in the face!
Not only was he listed as a hypocrite, but he was ranked even higher than Qiangu Wangyan!
"Old Yan... this..."
Qian Duoduo, standing to the side, sprang up from his chair in shock.
He stared at the Sky Screen, dumbfounded, then looked at his old friend in disbelief, unable to form a complete sentence for a long moment.
Outside the window, in Shrek Plaza.
The cheers and applause that had just been roaring like a tsunami came to an abrupt halt the moment the Sky Screen appeared.
Everyone's expression shifted from excitement and adoration to bewilderment and confusion, finally settling into an absurd sense of disbelief.
A second ago, they were still cheering for the grace of Dean Yan.
The next second, this Dean Yan had climbed to ninth place on the Hypocrite Ranking?
The reversal came too fast, like a tornado, and no one's mind could keep up.
The entire plaza fell into an eerie silence.
[Dou I Period]
Border of the Heaven Dou Empire.
The appearance of the Sky Screen caused the brutal battlefield to pause for less than a second.
"Ignore that damn thing! Kill Tang San!"
Golden Crocodile Douluo was the first to react; he let out a snort of disdain, his eyes burning with even greater killing intent.
The battle erupted once more! It was even more frantic than before!
Tang Hao was already on the verge of exhaustion after detonating his rings, and now he was in constant danger.
Every swing of the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand carried a desperate resolve, yet he remained firmly suppressed by Golden Crocodile Douluo, with new wounds constantly appearing on his body.
On the other side, the six Sacred Pillar Guardians of Sea God Island were also in a desperate situation.
"Pfft!"
Sea Spear Douluo's spear was sent flying, and he took a solid palm strike to the chest, flying backward like a kite with a broken string, spraying blood everywhere.
The battle had already become completely one-sided.
In the distance, Sea Ghost Douluo pushed his speed to the absolute limit.
The black mist enveloping Tang San carved a straight trajectory through the air, and it looked as though they were about to break through the encirclement of Martial Soul Hall.
But just then, two figures appeared before them like ghosts, blocking their path.
It was none other than Qianjun Douluo and Falling Devil Pestle from the Worship Hall!
"Little bastard, your journey ends here!"
Qianjun Douluo looked at Tang San's face, which bore a slight resemblance to Tang Hao's, his eyes filled with monstrous hatred.
They could not forget the miserable fate of their descendants as shown on the Sky Screen!
The root of all this was the brat right in front of them!
"Panlong Staff!" "Falling Devil Pestle!"
He exchanged a glance with Falling Devil Pestle, and they struck simultaneously. Two massive Panlong Staff martial souls whistled through the air, smashing fiercely toward the black mist from both sides!
A combined attack!
"Oh no!"
Sea Ghost Douluo was horrified; he could feel that he absolutely could not block this strike!
If they were hit, not only would he be crushed into meat paste, but Tang San, whom he was protecting, would be as well!
For the first time, true despair appeared in the eyes of Tang San within the mist.
However, at this critical moment!
"Sigh..."
A sigh, as if crossing an infinite distance, rang out clearly in everyone's ears.
Immediately following, a figure appeared before the black mist without any warning.
A right hand, white as jade, tapped lightly against the two Panlong Staffs that possessed the power to split mountains and shatter rocks.
And with that, it rendered them unable to advance even a single inch!
Time seemed to stand still in this very moment.
[Dou Er Era]
After regaining their senses, Shrek Plaza erupted into chaos.
"Dean Yan! It's actually Dean Yan who made the list?"
"This... this is impossible! Dean Yan is such an upright person!"
Countless students from the Martial Soul Department, especially the female students who usually adored Yan Shaozhe, let out cries of disbelief.
But this time, no one dared to righteously denounce the Sky Screen as they had when defending Qiangu Wangyan.
Having experienced the incident with Qiangu Wangyan, everyone had learned their lesson.
Before the Sky Screen provided a final verdict, any defense or support could easily turn into the most ridiculous joke.
The Sky Screen never wronged a good person, nor did it ever let a bad one go.
Amidst this intense public scrutiny.
On the Sky Screen, golden light swirled, and the biography of Yan Shaozhe slowly emerged in a grand and impartial tone.
[Yan Shaozhe, Dean of the Martial Soul Department at Shrek Academy, Level 95 Power Attack System Super Douluo, Title: "Radiant Phoenix."]
[His martial soul is the top-tier beast martial soul "Radiant Phoenix," naturally imbued with the power of light, possessing an extremely strong restraining effect on all evil and dark attributes.]
The image on the Sky Screen shifted, and Yan Shaozhe's figure appeared in the center.
It was how he usually looked at the academy: dressed in white, handsome and dashing, with an elegant temperament and a gentle smile always hanging on his face.
[As a high-ranking member of Shrek, Yan Shaozhe is undoubtedly successful.]
[In terms of strength, he became a Title Douluo at a young age and is one of Shrek Academy's most outstanding representatives.]
[In terms of status, he heads Shrek's largest department, wielding great power and enjoying the deep trust of the Sea God Pavilion elders.]
[In terms of character, he appears impartial and selfless, caring for his students; he is a model respected by countless people and the dream lover in the hearts of countless young women.]
[Externally, he is a vanguard against Evil Soul Masters; internally, he is a role model respected by everyone in Shrek.]
On the Sky Screen, scenes of Yan Shaozhe's "highlight moments" began to emerge.
There was his heroic posture in his youth, high-spirited, leading the Shrek team to win the championship at the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament;
There was his determination when facing Evil Soul Masters, fearless, transforming into the Radiant Phoenix to burn his enemies to ashes;
And there was his gentleness after becoming Dean, diligent in academy affairs, impartial, and treating students as if they were his own...
Each and every deed highlighted his glorious image.
[In everyone's eyes, he is undoubtedly the image of a dashing and refined gentleman.]
The commentary on the Sky Screen was filled with the highest praise.
Every sentence and every word seemed to be vindicating Yan Shaozhe.
If this had been a month ago, seeing these evaluations, Yan Shaozhe would have felt it was only natural, perhaps even feeling that it wasn't enough to summarize his excellence.
But at this moment, listening to these praises, he only felt a chill run through his entire body, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar!
Because he knew better than anyone that this Sky Screen was definitely not here to praise anyone!
"No... stop..."
He was afraid; he was truly terrified!
He would rather the Sky Screen expose his crimes directly than endure this slow, agonizing torture of a public execution!
Sure enough!
Just as the fear in his heart climbed to its peak—
The grand and majestic voice on the Sky Screen took a sudden turn!
It was no longer solemn and peaceful, but filled with undisguised coldness and mockery!
[However—]
The words paused deliberately at this point.
This brief silence caused everyone's heart to leap into their throats.
The big one is coming!
Yan Shaozhe's complexion had shifted from deathly pale to a hollow, ashen gray.
He knew that he was finished.
The glorious image he had spent his entire life cultivating was about to be torn to shreds in front of the entire continent!
Finally, that cold voice pronounced his true colors.
[It is this very person, who appears upright and honorable on the surface and is hailed as a model for Shrek, the Dean of the Martial Soul Department...]
[In reality, he is nothing more than a man of extreme promiscuity, someone who cannot even control his own lower body!]
