Under Mu En's leadership, a very different Sea God Pavilion meeting convened.

Naturally, all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion were present.

What the other elders had not expected was that even a group of children could attend this sort of meeting, along with two teachers from the outer courtyard.

Those who knew nothing about the situation were utterly baffled.

Most importantly, two Title Douluo from other factions had actually come here.

After all, the Sea God Pavilion was the most sacred place in Shrek Academy.

In any other faction, this would have been forbidden ground.

Yet now, outsiders were being allowed to participate.

Had Mu En not called this meeting, the other elders would have flown into a rage long ago.

"Right. It's probably Yan Shaozhe again!"

Qian Duoduo's wife, Xian Lin'er, a rank 94 Title Douluo, glanced at Yan Shaozhe and Xuan Zi, who sat there like quails, and mercilessly mocked them.

Still, she knew where to draw the line. Yan Shaozhe was one thing, but she did not drag Elder Xuan into it.

"Xian Lin'er, what do you mean by that?"

"Mu En hasn't even said anything yet, and you've already decided that Shaozhe caused trouble!"

Hearing Xian Lin'er's pointed remarks, Yan Shaozhe's wife, Cai Mei'er, immediately flared up and snapped back without mercy.

She had no idea that Yang Duo, seated beside Ning Que, was carefully sizing her up.

Not bad. His grandnephew had treated him quite well.

The wife he had found for him was first-rate in both figure and looks.

He especially liked that fiery personality of hers.

It would be all the more satisfying to conquer her.

"Enough!"

Just as Xian Lin'er was about to say more, Mu En lost his temper for once.

What time was this? There were outsiders present, and they were still fighting among themselves?

Wasn't that embarrassing?

At times, Mu En truly wanted to wash his hands of it all and leave.

But Shrek Academy had endured for ten thousand years. He could not let it be ruined in his hands, or he would be letting down the ancestors.

Seeing Mu En angered, no one else dared to speak.

"Little friend Ning Que, where do you think we should begin our questioning?"

Seeing that no one spoke, Mu En turned his gaze to Ning Que and handed all initiative to him.

An old fox was still an old fox.

It looked as though he had handed everything over, but the true initiative remained in Mu En's grasp.

However, Mu En had overestimated Ning Que's moral limits and shamelessness.

"Since Dragon God Lord has spoken, this junior will be so bold as to ask the seniors to watch an image recording."

With a thought, Ning Que took an Image Recording Orb from his storage Soul Tool and activated it.

Thus, everything from the chaotic selection battle to He Caitou deploying the Fixed Soul Guidance Cannon was clearly displayed before everyone.

"Good. What an impressive Shrek Academy. I have truly broadened my horizons."

Jin Heng did not make any threats. Yet the faint mockery in his words made every Shrek member present look extremely ugly.

This naked humiliation was like being slapped directly across the face.

Among them all, Zhou Yi's expression was undoubtedly the worst.

She had never expected that Ning Que, that little beast, had used an Image Recording Orb to preserve every scene. Even her expression when she transmitted orders to He Caitou through spiritual power had been captured with perfect clarity.

Although the Image Recording Orb alone could not reveal the content of her spiritual transmission.

The changes in her expression and He Caitou's expression were plain for everyone to see. How could they fail to notice something suspicious?

"Lexuan, this concerns Zhou Yi. Go and bring Fan Yu here as well!"

Mu En let out a long sigh at the sight, and a trace of exhaustion appeared on his aged face.

Fortunately, not everything had disappointed him.

At the very least, Bei Bei's performance had been proper enough.

That gave him some small measure of comfort.

"Dragon God Lord, I don't think this matter has anything to do with Teacher Zhou."

"She is only a teacher. The reason she was anxious was simply because she saw her students performing poorly. What does that have to do with her?"

Just as senior sister Zhang Lexuan was about to leave, Ning Que spoke in an unhurried tone.

The moment he said this, even Zhou Yi looked surprised. Why was Ning Que defending her?

Zhang Lexuan glanced at Ning Que, feeling that something was strange.

Because of Ye Guyi, she was fairly familiar with this junior.

He was not someone who easily forgave others.

"Ning Que, do you truly believe that?"

Mu En looked at Ning Que. He knew that today's matter might be even more troublesome than he had imagined.

This was not pleading for Zhou Yi or letting her off.

He clearly did not want anyone else to share the responsibility.

Moreover, the boy had developed murderous intent toward Zhou Yi. He intended to deal with her personally afterward!

"Teacher Zhou, a model for teachers, clearly did nothing. Must the blame be placed on her simply because she was angry that her students were so disappointing?"

"Besides, she is merely an outer courtyard teacher. What ability does she have to make all the other students gang up on my younger brother and sisters?"

"I believe that even knowing my younger sister belongs to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, knowing Wang Dong is the Young Master of the Clear Sky Sect, and knowing Xu Sanshi is the heir of the Mysterious Underworld Sect, Teacher Zhou would still not dare to try to kill them."

"She is only a Soul Emperor. She does not have that much courage!"

"Furthermore, the scenes in the Image Recording Orb contain no direct evidence proving that this matter is related to Teacher Zhou."

Ning Que spoke slowly, as though he were truly proving Zhou Yi's innocence.

In truth, he had already sentenced this madwoman to death in his heart.

Originally, Ning Que had not wanted to bother with Zhou Yi. No matter how inhuman she was, what did it have to do with him?

The people she harmed were Shrek's students, and the reputation she ruined belonged to Shrek Academy.

His younger sister and the others were not even in Zhou Yi's class.

Who would have thought that this madwoman would dare to do something like this?

Since that was the case, she could not blame him for being inhuman.

Simply letting her die, or letting her live on as a cripple, would be far too merciful.

"Fine."

"Shaozhe, tell us what happened."

Seeing Ning Que's stance was so firm, Mu En knew that Zhou Yi was doomed.

Furthermore, she no longer even qualified to take the blame.

"Teacher..."

Lying came as naturally as breathing to Yan Shaozhe. He had already thought of several ways to resolve the matter.

As long as they refused to admit it, it would have nothing to do with him.

It had all been the students acting on their own initiative.

At most, they would have to offer some compensation to these disciples of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.

"Think carefully before you speak. I do not want to discipline you a second time today!"

Just as Yan Shaozhe was about to spout nonsense, Mu En's aged voice cut him off.

"I..."

In an instant, Yan Shaozhe broke out in a cold sweat.
