Riding on the Tiger's Coattails! Preparing for the Lottery!

With everyone else already accounted for, Xuanzi didn't hesitate to send people to find Xiao Xiao's family.

His scorched face was contorted in a terrifying expression.

"Investigate! Even if her family is hiding underground, you must dig them out!"

Although Shrek Academy's intelligence system was as tattered and leaky as his grandfather's long johns.

It was still capable of simple investigations.

A commoner family, not some reclusive sect, their registered address was clear.

Thus, they quickly found the location of Xiao Xiao's family.

"Found them! In a small city near Shrek City!"

Xuanzi sneered, then looked at Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo.

"You two, go personally and bring them back alive!"

Shrek Academy had no intention of killing them outright.

Although Xuanzi was frantic, Mu En had not completely lost his mind.

Killing Xiao Xiao's family would bring no benefit other than venting anger.

On the contrary, it would thoroughly enrage that brat named Gu An and the Limit Douluo behind him.

Keeping her family alive was more useful.

They could be used to threaten Xiao Xiao, making her an informant, or rather, a spy, within Spirit Transmission Academy.

"Isn't that bitch Xiao Xiao close to that brat? Then let her be our spy!"

After all, with Shrek Academy's current strength, they couldn't inflict any damage on Leng Yaozhu by confronting her directly.

So it was better to understand the enemy first.

Besides, Spirit Transmission Academy's Soul Spirits...

Let alone the ordinary students who had witnessed everything just now.

Even the Titled Douluo and the elders of the Sea God Pavilion couldn't help but have a glint of greed flash in their eyes as they recalled it.

The stronger one was, the more they understood how terrifying the amplification brought by Soul Spirits was!

That thing practically turned a soul master from a one-on-one fighter into a dump truck!

One person could form an army!

If their Shrek Academy could also master this technology...

So they didn't think there was anything wrong with their plan.

They could eliminate a traitor, plant an informant, and take the opportunity to understand the details of Soul Spirits.

Killing three birds with one stone.

Everyone waited for Yan Shaozhe and Qian Duoduo to bring the people back.

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan, who had been in seclusion on Sea God Island, flew over.

She had originally been in seclusion on Sea God Island but sensed intense combat fluctuations emanating from Shrek Academy.

The strength of the fluctuations made her heart pound.

She immediately interrupted her seclusion and rushed over at full speed.

However.

When she landed in the Soul Fighting Zone, her beautiful eyes were filled with shock.

The Soul Fighting Platform was riddled with holes, the stands were covered in cracks, and the air still carried a scorching heat and the smell of burning.

Xuanzi was covered in black scorch marks, and Zhuang Yusen was treating him.

The expressions of the other elders were as grim as if their parents had died.

Zhang Lexuan opened her mouth.

"What... what happened here?"

She had originally thought that with Shrek Academy's strength, even if someone attacked, they wouldn't end up in such a dire state.

After all, not every elder of Shrek Academy was as unreliable as Xuanzi!

Mu En sighed when he saw Zhang Lexuan arrive.

He remembered what Sea God Tang San had said before he left.

He didn't explain in detail what had happened to Zhang Lexuan, merely waving his hand.

"Lexuan, you've come at the right time. In the future, take some time to guide these two little fellows, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong."

Although that six-year-old brat was indeed very strong, Shrek Academy's geniuses were not bad either, and they had to be given some confidence.

The best person for this was Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan was stunned for a moment, but seeing Mu En's tired expression, she nodded.

"Yes, Elder Mu."

Sighing inwardly once more, Mu En waved his hand, signaling for the senior elders to depart.

"Leave the remaining matters to the teachers to handle."

Don't be fooled by the fact that the enemy had already retreated; the impact of today's battle was far from over.

For instance...

Cai Mei'er stepped forward.

She unleashed the aura belonging to a Titled Douluo, and a frigid pressure enveloped the entire Soul Fighting Zone.

Her cold, sharp eyes swept across all the students present, her voice devoid of even a hint of warmth.

"Not a single word of what happened here today is to be spread outside!"

"If I find out who leaks this, they will be expelled from Shrek Academy and have their soul power crippled!"

She paused...

"Do you understand!"

The students were as silent as cicadas in winter.

Though their thoughts were varied, at this moment, they all obediently agreed.

"Understood!"

"We will never speak of this!"

Seeing them agree, Cai Mei'er didn't feel much relief.

Threats alone couldn't stop everyone's mouths.

Softening her tone slightly, she spoke again: "Of course, it's not that you can't say anything at all."

"Our Shrek Academy encountered a powerful enemy, but our ancestor, the Sea God Tang San, descended in person. His divine might was vast, and he scared the enemies away!"

"Our Shrek Academy remains the strongest!"

"The title of the continent's number one academy is not something just anyone can challenge!"

After pouring out a dose of "poisonous chicken soup," Cai Mei'er barely managed to stabilize the students' hearts.

Regardless of anything else, the descent of the Sea God Tang San was real and could not be faked.

With this banner to hide behind, she could at least package today's humiliation as a drama of "the ancestor manifesting and the powerful enemy retreating."

Meanwhile.

While Shrek Academy was busy stabilizing morale, Leng Yaozhu had already brought Gu An and Xiao Xiao back to Seven Treasures City.

In the courtyard of the Spirit Transmission Academy, Mother Gu was looking toward the direction where Gu An and the others had left from time to time.

Hearing the sound of air being torn apart in the sky.

She looked up and saw Leng Yaozhu landing while carrying Gu An and Xiao Xiao.

Seeing that they were unharmed, the heavy stone in Mother Gu's heart finally fell to the ground.

Then, seeing that they had brought back a green-haired little girl as well.

The corners of her mouth curved slightly; it seemed the trip had gone quite smoothly.

"Xiao An!"

Mother Gu hurried forward to greet them.

Gu An jumped down from Leng Yaozhu's arms and gave Mother Gu a simple greeting.

"Mom, I'm back. I'm going to my room to take care of some things first; I'll tell you the details later!"

After saying this, he hurried into his room.

Leng Yaozhu knew what Gu An was about to do, so she handed the still-unconscious Xiao Xiao to Mother Gu.

"Sister Gu, please help look after this little girl for a moment. I have things to discuss with Xiao An."

After a brief instruction, she turned and followed in Gu An's footsteps.

Mother Gu looked at the gentle and lovely little girl in her arms—green hair in double buns, a round, chubby face, and long, curled eyelashes.

How old was Xiao An, and was he already trying to raise a future wife from a young age?

She didn't understand, but she didn't ask either.

Children grow up, and it's normal for them to have secrets.

She carried Xiao Xiao into her own room, placed her carefully on the bed, and pulled the quilt up to cover her.

Mother Gu reached out to smooth the girl's brow and sighed.

Inside the room.

Gu An closed the door and turned around.

He rubbed his hands together, a look of anticipation on his face.

He walked up to Leng Yaozhu, stood on tiptoe, and cupped her cheeks with both hands.

Her pretty face was slightly distorted by his grip, and a hint of helplessness flashed in her phoenix eyes.

"Xiao An, what are you doing?"

Gu An said with a grin.

"Good sister, lend me some of your good luck! I'm going to draw the next person!"

Leng Yaozhu mumbled, her face still held in his hands.

"Draw if you want, but why are you pinching my face?"

Gu An pinched her cheeks a couple more times before letting go, rubbing his fingers as if reluctant to part.

"Just borrowing some luck."

He took a deep breath, his smile fading from his face, and his consciousness sank into the Douluo Planet within his body.

He glanced at the summoning option, which clearly stated: "Random Summon."

He couldn't choose who to summon.

Gu An pouted, but he wasn't too disappointed.

He had already learned the rules last time he drew Leng Yaozhu.

"Let's do this."
