"What?"
Those words immediately sent shock waves through the crowd.
Everyone present looked utterly shocked, especially Zhou Yi.
The lifeless look in her eyes suddenly blazed with light. It was as if she had found a way out.
But before Zhou Yi could celebrate for even two and a half seconds, Mu En spoke in a helpless voice.
"Alas, what a mess. Zhou Yi really has made a mess of things."
"Huh?"
Yan Shaozhe widened his eyes and looked at Mu En, asking in confusion:
"Elder Mu, what do you mean? There isn't anyone like that."
At that moment, it wasn't just Yan Shaozhe. Everyone else was looking at Mu En the same way.
Under everyone's gaze, Mu En slowly explained:
"Among the students in the videos Heavenly Curtain played earlier, everyone except Li Qiang was on the freshman list. That means the events shown by Heavenly Curtain will definitely happen in the future."
"As for why Li Qiang wasn't on the list, that's because Li Qiang isn't one person. He's a group of people."
"He's the embodiment of the resentment of the students Zhou Yi ruined."
Those words made everyone's bodies tremble. Even Zhou Yi was shaken to her core!
Was Li Qiang the resentment of the students she had expelled in the past?
What kind of joke was this?
Mu En said gravely:
"Li Qiang's appearance was my failure. It was your failure too, and a failure of our entire Shrek Academy."
"I hope every teacher here will remember what happened today and turn shame into motivation."
"I don't ever want to see another incident like Zhou Yi's."
Then Mu En looked coldly at Zhou Yi, who was frozen in place. His eyes made no attempt to hide his anger and contempt!
The matter had reached its end. It was time to wrap things up.
"Zhou Yi, you're no longer part of Shrek Academy. Leave Shrek Academy and Shrek City."
Mu En's voice was cold and utterly devoid of emotion.
At Mu En's order, Zhou Yi turned even paler and staggered back several steps.
Mu En wasn't simply kicking her out. He was sending her straight to her death.
Hadn't she heard what Heavenly Curtain had just announced?
The students she had expelled had gathered into Li Qiang, who was already a Level 78 Soul Saint.
That person might be lying in wait for her somewhere right now. Kicking her out of Shrek City was no different from sending a lamb into a tiger's den!
Li Qiang would torture her to death.
"Fan... Fan Yu..."
Zhou Yi looked to Fan Yu for help, but the moment he met her eyes, he lowered his head.
Seeing this, Zhou Yi's heart sank. Her eyes gradually grew vacant.
By now, she had realized the truth: she was completely finished!
She had reached the point where everyone had turned against her and countless people despised her.
"Why are you still standing there? Do you want me to have you escorted out?"
Seeing that Zhou Yi still hadn't moved, Mu En spoke again, driving her away in an extremely impatient tone.
At last, Zhou Yi stumbled away in a daze, her mind blank. She seemed like a walking corpse.
Even in that state, she could clearly feel the mocking gazes around her.
She had lost. She had lost completely.
And she was going to die, too. The Evil Soul Master she had created was about to kill her.
While Shrek Academy sank into a heavy atmosphere,
over at the Body Sect, Du Busi wore a gleeful smile and gloated:
"Shrek Academy really has produced one remarkable teacher!"
"She expels students and even threatens to cripple their Martial Souls. What an eye-opener!"
"But this is for the best. Mu En, that old fool, is always so proud of Shrek Academy. Let's see what he does now!"
"Shrek Academy is nothing but a trash academy. There isn't a single normal person in it."
At the Sun Moon Royal Academy in the Sun Moon Empire,
the academy president was grinning so broadly after seeing Heavenly Curtain expose Zhou Yi's scandal that the corners of his mouth nearly split.
Who would have thought? He'd been racking his brains nearly bald trying to figure out how to surpass Shrek Academy—or at least compete with it for talent.
And still, he hadn't come up with a good plan. Shrek Academy had such deep foundations, and it had even had seven gods ten thousand years ago.
But now things were different. Heavenly Curtain's broadcast about Zhou Yi had directly destroyed Shrek's status as a holy land in the hearts of the people of Douluo Continent.
No, he had to seize this opportunity.
"Someone, gather a team and immediately publicize what Zhou Yi of Shrek did."
At that moment, the entire Douluo Continent was condemning Zhou Yi.
"No!!!"
"No, I did nothing wrong! Why? Why?!"
Zhou Yi walked alone down the street, howling at the top of her lungs.
With a sharp cough, Zhou Yi spat out a mouthful of blood in a fit of rage.
"No, I can't die! I don't want to die!"
Zhou Yi swayed as she stood up and wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes. She seemed to have made up her mind.
After leaving Mu En, Xuan Zi started eating again, clutching his wine jug and chicken leg.
But just as he came out, Qian Duoduo showed up with Fan Yu to find him.
Seeing Xuan Zi gnawing on a chicken leg, Qian Duoduo forced a smile and walked over.
"Elder Xuan, Fan Yu and I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Xuan Zi raised his head in surprise. He had no idea why Qian Duoduo had brought Fan Yu to see him, and asked in confusion:
"Duoduo, what do you want with an old man like me?"
"Nothing... nothing much, Elder Xuan. Let's talk somewhere else."
Qian Duoduo warily glanced around and lowered his voice.
"What's going on? Why all the secrecy?"
Though he was puzzled by Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu's mysterious behavior, Xuan Zi still chose to follow them.
After all, that was the confidence of a Level 98 Super Douluo.
Following Qian Duoduo and Fan Yu, the three of them eventually left Shrek Academy and arrived at Shrek's east gate.
There, Xuan Zi saw Zhou Yi, who should already have left Shrek City.
"Duoduo, Fan Yu, what is this about?"
Xuan Zi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked the three of them over.
Qian Duoduo smiled obsequiously.
"Heh heh, nothing much, Elder Xuan. There's just something we'd like you to help us with."
"What is it?"
"Zhou Yi can't stay in Shrek City anymore, but that Evil Soul Master is coming to take revenge on her."
"Elder Xuan, do you think you could..."
Xuan Zi remained silent, lowering his head without a word.
Seeing this, Qian Duoduo spoke up:
"Surely the mighty Taotie Douluo isn't afraid of a Level 78 Evil Soul Master?"
"What? I'm afraid? Would a Super Douluo like me be afraid of an Evil Soul Master?"
"With me here, even an Evil Soul Master who's a Titled Douluo won't kill anyone right under my nose!"
