The Worthless Face-Saving, Hu Jie Takes Action!
"Whoosh whoosh!"
Several streaks of light darted through the air and arrived above Shrek Academy in the blink of an eye. The group that arrived was none other than the Spirit Pagoda led by Qiangu Dongfeng.
Meanwhile, in a shady spot outside the Shrek Academy, Hu Jie breathed a slight sigh of relief. "That old bastard Qiangu Dongfeng arrived just in time, otherwise I, the hall master, would have gone to mediate. Thank goodness, otherwise my traitorous identity would have been exposed prematurely."
"We haven't even gotten anything from the Tang Sect yet, it would be a loss to expose ourselves prematurely..."
He noticed the battle erupt at the Shrek Academy the moment it started, and then he saw Mu Ye attack Shrek Academy, stomping on Zhuo Shi and sending Cai Yue'er flying with a punch.
"That's ruthless! It seems I, the master of this hall, can no longer harbor any improper thoughts." Recalling Mu Ye's fighting prowess just now, Hu Jie couldn't help but shudder.
However, he was also pleased that the Body Sect was indeed on the rise.
Just as Hu Jie was about to continue watching, several streaks of light rose from the Tang Sect Headquarters. Hu Jie's eyes lit up, and his massive body twisted as he headed straight for those people.
Before coming to Shrek City, he had learned that the Heartless Douluo and the Sentimental Douluo were not at the Tang Sect Headquarters.
Apart from these two, his status within the Tang Sect is the highest.
"Sigh, Mu Ye, hurry up and lead the Body Sect to develop, otherwise I, the hall master, will soon reach the highest level..." Hu Jie sighed inwardly and directly blocked the Tang Sect members.
"Where are you all going?" Hu Jie asked, looking at the several branch leaders of the Tang Sect.
"Greetings, Hall Master Hu. We're on our way to help Shrek Academy." The group stopped and paused slightly before speaking.
"What help are you offering? Go and mediate this fight with me!" Hu Jie pointed disapprovingly at Shrek City below and said, "Have you forgotten our Tang Sect's motto? To Guardian the peace of the continent is our duty."
"What will happen to the residents down below if a fight really breaks out?"
"This..." The group exchanged glances, somewhat astonished.
Indeed, if a real fight breaks out, the aftershocks of the battle will inevitably affect the residents below, and these residents will certainly suffer. After all, this is a battle between Super Douluo and even Limit Douluo.
"Hmm?" Seeing the group stammering, Hu Jie raised an eyebrow. "The election for the next hall master is just around the corner, and it seems you guys don't really care about it..."
"Ahem, I feel that Hall Master Hu. Our Tang Sect should prioritize peace."
I feel the same way.
Me too.
When the group heard Hu Jie mention the election for the hall master, they were taken aback at first, but then followed in Hu Jie's footsteps.
That's the election for the head of the Tang Sect.
Who wouldn't want to take it a step further!
At this moment, the Qiangu Dongfeng had already reached the middle of the two sides.
"Gentlemen, you are all renowned forces on the continent. Why be so confrontational? Why not listen to what I, the Tower Master, have to say and let's sit down and have a proper chat?" Qiangu Dongfeng cleared his throat and looked at Yun Ming and Mu Ye with a smile.
But the two of them seemed not to see him at all, and their aura continued to rise.
"..."
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him on either side, Qiangu Dongfeng's expression froze slightly.
Does he really have no face left?
Leng Yaozhu gazed at the Qiangu Dongfeng, a mysterious smile playing on her red lips.
She knew that Qiangu Dongfeng had long sensed the battle, but had been hiding in the shadows, wanting to be the mantis, waiting for a result before stepping forward to mediate. This way, she could gain a good reputation and even win over Elder Han and Mu Ye, making them owe her a favor.
However, she knew Qiangu Dongfeng's personality well and expected him to do so, so she took the opportunity to let him persuade them to make peace, since the Body Sect was currently weak and far from being able to compete with the Shrek Academy.
By inflicting wounds on Zhuo Shi and Cai Yue'er, we have already recovered our losses. As long as we can withdraw without any casualties, we will have achieved a great victory.
After all, just like gods, once a mortal sheds a single drop of blood upon them, their veil of mystery will gradually fall away, and the awe that mortals hold for them will gradually disappear.
After this incident, although Shrek Academy remains the most powerful force on the continent, will its prestige continue to stand firm...?
"Tower Master Qiangu, it was Shrek Academy that bullied my juniors, Mu Ye were the stronger ones. That's why I came here to demand an explanation. After all, who wants to see their juniors being bullied?" Han Tianyi stepped forward and said softly.
"Moreover, Mu Ye only targeted Cai Yue'er and Zhuo Shi, without affecting the others. In fact, Cai Yue'er attacked Mu Ye first. We wanted to talk, but Shrek Academy wouldn't give us the chance."
Han Tianyi's tone was tinged with a helpless sigh.
Cai Yue'er, who had just slowly woken up, was furious upon hearing Han Tianyi's words, and her eyes widened in anger.
But she also understood that Han Tianyi was telling the truth; it was indeed she who had struck first.
Wanting to refute but unable to utter a rebuttal, Cai Yue'er was overcome with anxiety and fainted again.
"So that's how it is. What you did was indeed unethical. Shrek Academy is the representative of the continent, how could you do such a thing?" Qiangu Dongfeng said to Yun Ming with a look of realization.
Yun Ming frowned, about to say something, when Qiangu Dongfeng abruptly changed the subject.
"However, Sect Master Mu, you also made a mistake in this matter. How could you beat the two of them so badly? Look at this pig-headed... ah no, Cai Yue'er has fainted."
You should also make some compensation. In my opinion, once the two of you have recovered, Tower Master Sect Master Mu, you should send a fruit basket as a token of your appreciation.
Although Qiangu Dongfeng didn't explicitly say it, he had been constantly undermining Shrek Academy, since their Spirit Pagoda had long since split from the Shrek Academy.
As for sharing the same ancestor, he said that one thing is one thing.
Moreover, their ancestor Huo Yuhao once said that the White Tiger Duke Mansion would pay for its blood debts, but in the end, Forget Origin his roots. In fact, the White Tiger Dai Clan even regained the throne of the Star Luo Empire.
Upon hearing Qiangu Dongfeng's words, even Yun Ming, with his composed nature, couldn't help but laugh in anger.
Is sending a fruit basket all we have to do?
But just then, several streaks of light flew by in the distance, and it was the Tang Sect led by Hu Jie.
Hu Jie gave Mu Ye a "cold" look and led the Tang Sect members directly to the Shrek Academy's side.
"Mu Ye, what are you trying to do? How dare you cause trouble at the Shrek Academy?" After landing, Hu Jie said coldly to Mu Ye, "If you dare to harm Shrek Academy, then you are harming our Tang Sect. Do you want to become an enemy of Shrek and Tang Sect?"
Several Elder of the Shrek Academy, witnessing this scene, were deeply gratified. The Tang Sect truly was their strong support, and Hall Master Hu was an even more loyal subject.
And judging from this situation, Hu Jie did indeed truly break with the Body Sect back then.
When Mu Ye saw Hu Jie flick his little finger, he immediately understood what he meant. His aura suddenly surged, his massive Golden Body expanded once more, and he let out a low roar.
"Fight then! At worst, we'll wage war and sink the entire Shrek Academy!"
