Agreement, Live Broadcast Across the Continent!

"Yaozhu, do you think that if Shrek Academy were to lose the title of having the number one person in the world, it would impact their reputation?"

Leng Hanyuan chuckled softly.

Upon hearing these words, Leng Yaozhu's beautiful eyes brightened.

Because of the Sky-Propping Douluo, Yun Ming, who bore the title of the continent's number one, Shrek Academy's reputation had grown increasingly prominent over these years.

Otherwise, they would not have become a thorn in the side of the Spirit Transmission Pagoda, the War God Temple, and the Federal Council.

If the title of the continent's number one could be stripped from Yun Ming, it would undoubtedly be a massive blow to the prestige of the entire Shrek Academy.

However...

"Brother Hanyuan, I fear Yun Ming's strength is quite troublesome."

"He is not someone that old fellow Qiangu Dieting can compare to."

Leng Yaozhu naturally trusted her own ancestor.

Yet, the absolute strength Yun Ming had displayed in the past remained vivid in her mind.

Although Leng Hanyuan could suppress Qiangu Dieting, that did not mean he could suppress Yun Ming.

The strength of these two individuals was simply not on the same level.

Moreover, her own ancestor had suffered a loss at the hands of a full set of Four-Word Battle Armor.

"No matter, I have it under control."

Leng Hanyuan waved his hand, signaling that Leng Yaozhu need not worry.

His tone was indifferent, as if he were merely stating a simple fact.

"I can handle him."

Hearing this, Leng Yaozhu said no more.

She always possessed an inexplicable trust in Leng Hanyuan's words.

"Let's go. You must be tired after traveling such a long distance; you might as well come and have a meal with me."

Leng Hanyuan stretched his back.

His leisurely demeanor showed not a hint of concern regarding the upcoming spar with Yun Ming.

Watching Leng Hanyuan and the others depart, the pain on Xie Xie's head had already vanished, replaced by an expression of pure excitement.

"Big news, this is absolutely big news!"

Xie Xie clenched his fists.

"Teacher Leng is actually going to spar with that person from Shrek Academy!"

Seeing his excited state, Tang Wulin scratched the back of his head, bewildered, and asked in confusion:

"That person from Shrek Academy?"

"Is it that Yun Ming?"

"Is he very strong?"

"Nonsense." Xie Xie rolled his eyes.

"The Sky-Propping Douluo that Pagoda Master Leng spoke of is the current Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion at Shrek Academy, the recognized number one person on the continent."

"Even the Pagoda Master of the Spirit Transmission Pagoda or the Hall Master of the War God Temple have to bow their heads to him."

"You tell me, is he strong or not?"

"Oh."

Tang Wulin nodded, seemingly understanding, yet not quite.

He then added:

"But I still think Teacher Leng is stronger."

Xie Xie slapped his own forehead.

He finally understood.

This guy Tang Wulin had been completely molded by Teacher Leng; he was a bona fide, mindless little fanboy.

Trying to analyze these things with him was completely useless.

He simply shut his mouth.

He remained excited, however, simply because he had learned such explosive information so far in advance.

Having received Leng Hanyuan's response, Leng Yaozhu quickly provided an answer to Shrek Academy.

"Pavilion Master, the Phoenix Family has sent a reply."

Zhuo Shi spoke up.

His expression at this moment was not particularly pleasant.

It was somewhat grave, and also somewhat puzzled.

He seemed to be pondering something.

"What is it? Why are you dawdling?"

Light and Dark Douluo Long Yeyue said with some impatience.

Facing this senior elder, whose seniority was the highest in the entire Sea God Pavilion, Zhuo Shi dared not get angry and could only offer a smile as he said:

"It is like this."

"The Phoenix Family has sent a reply, agreeing to the invitation for a sparring match between the Pavilion Master and Leng Hanyuan."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

"Why are you putting on that face?"

Feng Wuyu rolled his eyes and retorted.

"What do you know?" Zhuo Shi did not indulge him and rolled his eyes right back.

"It certainly isn't just that. Can't you old fool just listen to someone finish what they're saying?"

"You!"

Upon hearing this, Feng Wuyu immediately slammed the table, stood up, and began huffing and puffing with rage.

"Alright, stop arguing."

Seeing that the two were about to start a major row during the Sea God Pavilion meeting, Ya Li, who was sitting in the vice-chair, spoke up.

Her gentle voice seemed to carry a certain magic capable of soothing the heart, causing the previously agitated Zhuo Shi and Feng Wuyu to suddenly calm down.

They sat back down in their seats, as obedient as primary school students being disciplined by their teacher.

"Zhuo Shi, please continue."

"Mm." Zhuo Shi nodded and continued.

"However, the Phoenix Family has proposed a condition."

"They hope that this sparring match between Leng Hanyuan and the Pavilion Master will be broadcast across the entire Federation, conducted under the gaze of all soul masters on the continent."

"They claim they hope to use this method to let more young soul masters recognize the peak combat power of the current soul master world and inspire their drive for progress."

None of those present took the latter part of his statement to heart.

Everyone knew clearly that it was just high-sounding rhetoric.

They only cared about this demand from the Phoenix Family.

"They want a continent-wide broadcast?"

Feng Wuyu frowned.

"What kind of scheme is the Phoenix Family plotting?"

"There is only one possibility."

An elder suddenly spoke up.

"They hope to use this method to strike a blow to the reputation of our Shrek Academy."

"After all, aside from that, I truly cannot think of any other reason for the Phoenix Family to do this."

"If the Pavilion Master loses, it would obviously be a massive blow to the prestige of our Shrek Academy."

"I just don't understand, is the Phoenix Family really that confident?"

"After all, that Leng Hanyuan, who appeared out of nowhere, is at the peak of his fame right now."

"Many are even speculating whether his strength is the greatest in the world today."

"This has also caused the reputation of the Phoenix Family to rise significantly."

"But if they lose, this unstoppable momentum will surely come to an abrupt halt. At this juncture, if they weren't certain, there would be absolutely no reason to propose such a demand."

He analyzed it very clearly.

A continent-wide broadcast of a sparring match was a double-edged sword.

The winner could undoubtedly elevate the prestige of their faction to a new peak.

But the loser would undoubtedly be knocked down from the clouds.

This could be called a massive gamble!

His words voiced the inner thoughts of all the elders.

They believed in the strength of Yun Ming; after all, it was something everyone had witnessed with their own eyes.

However, the reaction from the Phoenix Family side could not help but make them feel a bit uneasy.

"So, do we agree or not?"

Zhuo Shi raised his eyes to look at the handsome young man sitting in the seat of honor.

Yun Ming pursed his lips.

"Everyone, I am not clear on the background of Leng Hanyuan, so I dare not speak with absolute certainty."

"The only thing I can guarantee is that I will do my utmost."

"As for whether we should agree, this concerns the entirety of Shrek Academy, so it would be best for everyone to decide by vote."

"Those who agree, please raise your hands."

Swish, swish, swish.

Nearly seventy percent of the arms were raised.

Clearly, aside from a few particularly cautious elders, the rest of the elders had immense faith in Yun Ming's strength.

Seeing this, a warm current of being trusted flowed through Yun Ming's heart, along with a heightened sense of tension born from responsibility.

"Since that is the case..."

"Then we shall respond to the Phoenix Family."

"We accept this request."
