Yue Guan's directness caught Ye Xuan by surprise.

He had assumed that Yue Guan and his companion would at least attempt to probe the situation first.

It seemed they possessed absolute confidence in their own strength.

Last time, it had been Ghost Douluo alone; this time, with both of them present, such confidence was only natural.

Ye Xuan did not rush to intervene; he primarily wanted to see how Flender and the others would respond, and of course, how Xiao Wu and Tang San would react.

"Who are you? Do I have any grudge against you?" Xiao Wu asked.

She certainly knew why these people were here, but she could hardly just blurt out that she was a soul beast and intended to fight them to the death.

At this moment, Tang San stepped forward, just as expected.

Blocking Yue Guan, he demanded, "Who are you? Why do you want to take Xiao Wu?"

"Kid, if you don't want to die, stop meddling and get lost," Yue Guan said, waving his hand. Tang San was instantly sent flying off the balcony.

Upon hitting the ground, blood sprayed from Tang San's mouth.

Although Yue Guan had only flicked his hand casually, the gap in their strength was too vast; even a fraction of Yue Guan's power was more than the current Tang San could withstand.

Tang San was horrified. He had not expected this man to be not only unreasonable but also terrifyingly powerful.

Though he could not accurately gauge the opponent's strength, he was certain that this person was far stronger than Flender and the others.

Seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo attack Tang San, Grandmaster rushed forward to intervene.

He stepped up and said, "Chrysanthemum Douluo, do you still recognize me?"

"Oh? So the Grandmaster is here. What? Does the Grandmaster wish to protect this soul beast?" Chrysanthemum Douluo replied.

"Soul beast?" Grandmaster was shocked. "Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo, have you made a mistake? Xiao Wu is a student at our Shrek Academy; how could she be a soul beast?"

Flender also hurried over to chime in, "That's right, Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo. How could Xiao Wu be a soul beast? Is there some kind of misunderstanding here?"

"Soul beast? Xiao Wu is a soul beast?" Tang San, down below, muttered to himself upon hearing this.

He struggled to his feet and, with a few leaps, returned to the balcony.

By the time he arrived, Yue Guan was squinting slightly at Grandmaster. "The world calls you 'Grandmaster,' so how can you not see it? Or did you see it and are choosing to feign ignorance?"

"She is a student of our Shrek Academy. Regardless of who told you she is a soul beast, leave now. I command you with this token." As he spoke, Grandmaster produced the Pope's Order that Tang Hao had given him.

Seeing the Pope's Order, Yue Guan was stunned for a moment.

However, he soon burst into laughter.

"Grandmaster, while I don't know where you obtained this Pope's Order, have you forgotten one thing? This token only grants you the prestige of a Spirit Hall elder. What? Do you intend to use the status of an honorary elder to suppress me, an actual elder?"

Yue Guan's mocking words caused Grandmaster's face to flush red.

Yet, he knew he could not back down now.

He said coldly, "This is a Pope's Order issued by Spirit Hall. By ignoring this token, are you intending to ignore the Pope's authority?"

"Heh, ignore the Pope's authority? If that were truly the case, we would answer to the Pope ourselves. But this soul beast, we must take her. If you dare to block us again... you will be executed without mercy!"

As he spoke, Yue Guan released the pressure of his spirit power, bearing down on Flender and the others.

Facing the immense pressure of a Contra, Flender quickly activated his spirit. Though he knew he was no match, as the headmaster, he had to stand his ground.

Seeing Flender activate his spirit, Yue Guan said with disdain, "With your meager strength, you still want to stop me?"

Just then, Xiao Wu spoke up. "I will go with you."

Xiao Wu was well aware of the disparity between a Title Douluo and a Spirit Sage.

She only blamed her own greed; she should have left the moment Sword Douluo had arrived earlier.

Because Sword Douluo had left, she had felt safe.

She had not expected that this time, people from Spirit Hall would come directly.

She could not let Flender and the others be buried alongside her because of her own existence.

"A very smart choice," Yue Guan said, narrowing his eyes.

At this moment, Tang San rushed to block their path.

He said with difficulty, "If you want to take Xiao Wu, you'll have to step over my dead body."

However, Grandmaster quickly stepped in and pulled Tang San away. While dragging him back, he whispered, "San, don't you understand? Someone is trying to harm you all. Are you willing to die like this? If you die here, I fear that person will be laughing in the shadows."

"Huh?"

As soon as Grandmaster said this, everyone at Shrek Academy was stunned.

Xiao Wu was also visibly taken aback for a moment.

When Yue Guan saw this, he was completely bewildered.

Someone trying to harm them?

What was all this about?

If they hadn't come here looking for Ye Xuan, they never would have discovered Xiao Wu in the first place.

How could this be called a plot to harm anyone?

However, it appeared there was internal conflict among them, which began to pique Yue Guan's interest.

He was in no rush to make a move, choosing instead to watch patiently.

Standing to the side, Ghost Douluo could see that Yue Guan's habit of enjoying a spectacle had flared up again.

Nevertheless, Ghost Douluo possessed enough confidence at this moment that he felt no urgency either.

Seeing the hesitation among the group, Yu Xiaogang continued, "May I ask, among us, who is most familiar with Spirit Hall? Why would two Title Douluos from Spirit Hall come here? If someone hadn't tipped them off, how would they have known?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone naturally turned their gaze toward Ye Xuan.

After all, his people resided within Spirit Hall, and furthermore, Ye Xuan was strong enough that he likely would have discerned Xiao Wu's true form long ago.

However, Zhu Zhuqing was instantly incensed.

She glared coldly at Yu Xiaogang and scolded him without a shred of mercy, "Yu Xiaogang, have you no shame? If Brother Ye wanted to harm you, would he really need to enlist the help of Spirit Hall? Do you think your face is really that important?"

"Heh, why don't we let Ye Xuan speak for himself?" Yu Xiaogang acted as if he were a dead pig unafraid of boiling water.

Since he had already said as much, regardless of the truth, he had no choice but to see it through to the end.

At this moment, Ghost Douluo also looked toward Ye Xuan's side with great interest.

He said with a smile, "Young Master Ye, it seems these people don't exactly welcome you. Why not come back to Spirit Hall with us?"

Ghost Douluo's friendly greeting only made the people from Shrek Academy more suspicious that Ye Xuan had indeed tipped off Spirit Hall.

"They certainly don't welcome me, and I will go to Spirit Hall, but not just yet," Ye Xuan replied.

"Not going now? Is there something here that Young Master Ye has yet to finish? Would you like us to lend a hand?" Ghost Douluo asked.

"There isn't anything left unfinished, but if Ghost Douluo is willing to do me a favor, there is one thing we could do. How about you kill Yu Xiaogang for me?" Ye Xuan said with a smile.
