Of course, Feng Tianyu's arrival had not changed everything.
For example, Xuan Zi, the Holy Spirit Cult's unofficial Supreme Elder, would no longer have a chance to come out unless Shrek Academy faced a life-or-death crisis.
Twelve Inner Court elites from Shrek Academy had gone out, and eight had died without even leaving corpses behind. The remaining four were badly wounded. When Mu En learned the news, he felt as though he had aged ten years in an instant.
His eyes turned bloodshot, his breath came in ragged gasps, and in his fury, he wanted to cripple Xuan Zi.
It was only because Yan Shaozhe brought a group of Inner Court elders to repeatedly plead for Xuan Zi before Mu En, saying that he was a rank 98 Super Douluo and one of the Academy's pillars. Students had died, so be it, but nothing could happen to Xuan Zi.
In any case, the Shrek Inspectorate lost people every year. The Inner Court even had a death quota.
Besides, hunting Soul Beasts had always been a nine-deaths-one-life endeavor. Xuan Zi could not be blamed entirely for this.
Out of twelve elite disciples, not all of them had died. Only eight had died, while four had survived. That was all thanks to Xuan Zi!
Yan Shaozhe truly embodied Shrek Academy's traditions. After all, ever since Flender's era ten thousand years ago, students dying during Soul Beast hunts had never been anything unusual at Shrek Academy.
Back then, Shrek Academy had recruited forty-two disciples in total, but only fourteen had ultimately graduated. Of the twenty-eight who failed to graduate, sixteen had died during Soul Beast hunts.
They had all been geniuses under twelve years old with Soul Power above rank 20. At Shrek Academy, death was simply death. How could teachers be blamed
