"Dean Qian, Dean Yan, you two were here too! Thank you for saving me!"
Zhou Yi coughed. She did not know who had saved her, but it was obvious that the two deans must have intervened.
Hearing Zhou Yi's grateful words, Qian Duoduo shook his head, while Yan Shaozhe frowned deeply.
"What exactly happened? This matter is very important. Why were you injured so severely within Shrek Academy?"
"I've already sent people to inspect the office, but the results show that aside from the missing first-year roster, nothing else was out of the ordinary."
"It was only a roster. That should not have been enough for someone to seriously injure you. Moreover, the other party could have killed you at the time, yet for some reason chose not to."
As Yan Shaozhe spoke, he stared intently at Zhou Yi.
It was not that he suspected Teacher Zhou. After all, she had served Shrek Academy for many years.
Although students often complained about her, she still had a good reputation.
However, after hearing Yan Shaozhe's words, a trace of contemplation appeared in Zhou Yi's expression.
Fan Yu and Qian Duoduo watched her with grave expressions.
Yet as they watched Zhou Yi thinking, Qian Duoduo ultimately said nothing.
"It was like this, Dean. The other party's martial soul seemed to be a Fallen Angel martial soul, but his martial soul possessed a very unusual ability. It seemed capable of martial soul fusion."
"So I suspect that he might possess twin martial souls, and the other martial soul..."
Zhou Yi paused there.
After all, the academy currently had only one person with an angel martial soul: Li Qingming.
So at this moment, she had already begun to suspect Li Qingming.
However, Zhou Yi was still puzzled as to why he had not killed her, as well as why Li Qingming had stolen the roster.
Hearing Zhou Yi's words, especially the mention of a "Fallen Angel" and a "possibly special angel ability," Yan Shaozhe's eyes began to flicker.
Naturally, he had already sent people to investigate Li Qingming.
Li Qingming had entered through the recommendation quota of a small clan. It was said that one of his elders had once saved the life of that clan's patriarch, which was why the clan had given him its admission quota for Shrek Academy.
This was not particularly difficult to investigate, and all the information was genuine.
That was also why Yan Shaozhe had never suspected that there was anything wrong with Li Qingming.
But after hearing Zhou Yi's words, Yan Shaozhe's gaze flickered, and a sharp glint flashed through his eyes.
That youth possessed an ultimate angel martial soul.
Once an ultimate martial soul was fully nurtured, its future potential would be limitless.
But if he were a remnant of the Holy Spirit Cult, or had any ties to the Holy Spirit Cult, it would be a disaster for Shrek Academy.
With that thought, Yan Shaozhe's expression remained unchanged.
He did not look at Zhou Yi again. With a light tap of his foot, his body swiftly vanished.
Watching Yan Shaozhe's departing back, Zhou Yi's eyes flickered, and she let out a soft sigh.
Fan Yu and Qian Duoduo hurried over and continued asking for the details.
Meanwhile, in the room, as the door to Dormitory 108 was abruptly flung open, Du Weilun stepped forward and switched on the lights.
With a sweep of his gaze, he saw Wang Dong lying there asleep and Li Qingming sitting cross-legged nearby.
As the lights suddenly came on, the two opened their eyes almost simultaneously.
Wang Dong sat up, his pink-blue eyes fixed on the two people at the door, his gaze carrying a trace of vigilance.
Only after seeing Du Weilun did the wariness in Wang Dong's eyes fade.
Li Qingming also put on a puzzled expression and looked toward the two at the door.
Du Weilun's gaze paused on the two of them for a second before he slowly stepped aside.
Yan Shaozhe entered from behind him. Without pausing for even a second, he reached directly for Li Qingming.
Sensing that terrifying power, Li Qingming did not resist and allowed the man to seize his hand.
As the other party's powerful soul power and spiritual power entered his body and began examining him, Li Qingming's expression gradually darkened.
Just as he had expected, they had indeed suspected him.
However, the Fallen Angel martial soul was no longer inside his body. No matter how they searched, they would not be able to detect anything unusual.
Yan Shaozhe's expression had stiffened to the extreme as his spiritual power carefully sensed the power within Li Qingming's body.
As the examination deepened, there truly was nothing wrong with Li Qingming. He was indeed just an ordinary child.
Moreover, the power within him was genuinely ultimate holy power. When it clashed with Yan Shaozhe's power, it did not fall behind in the slightest.
Feeling this miraculous power, Yan Shaozhe was first overwhelmed with delight.
But as he continued probing deeper, stripping away layer after layer of power, he still did not detect the slightest trace of evil power.
Only then did Yan Shaozhe let out a long breath.
As his grip loosened slightly, Li Qingming immediately shook off his hand.
Li Qingming stared at Yan Shaozhe, his gaze exceptionally cold.
"Dean Yan, I require an explanation. Why did you come to inspect me without warning and directly probe into my secrets?"
"Although I am a student of Shrek Academy, even as the dean, if you wished to examine me, you should have informed me beforehand, shouldn't you?"
Li Qingming's tone was icy, and he made no effort to conceal the disgust in his eyes.
Even though Yan Shaozhe was a Super Douluo, he remained completely fearless.
Seeing Li Qingming's expression, Yan Shaozhe looked somewhat embarrassed.
He naturally knew that he had crossed a line, but he had been too anxious earlier.
Now that he had confirmed there was nothing wrong with the youth, he finally relaxed.
Yet even so, after confirming that the youth was innocent, he did not know how to begin speaking.
Originally, he had wanted to directly ask the youth to become his disciple, but seeing the disgust in the youth's eyes, he could understand it.
After all, anyone would find it difficult to accept being suddenly examined without any explanation.
So Yan Shaozhe thought for a moment and sighed helplessly.
"I'm sorry, Student Li. This was an accident. Someone used a power very similar to yours to cause trouble in the academy."
"But after this examination, it has been confirmed that it was not you. Of course, this was my mistake as dean, and I will compensate you."
As Yan Shaozhe spoke, he looked steadily at Li Qingming.
He raised his hand, and a pale golden fruit appeared in his palm.
"This is called a Radiant Dragon Fruit. It is a fruit produced through a special method. Only after being infused with the power of a Light Holy Dragon can such a fruit take form."
"Not only is it a ten-thousand-year spirit herb, it also contains immense power. It is especially beneficial for light-attribute martial souls."
Yan Shaozhe spoke earnestly.
Even when he looked at the fruit, there was a trace of reluctance in his eyes.
This was a fruit produced by Mu En.
An ordinary Dragon Blood Fruit had to be infused with Mu En's light power, or remain in Mu En's cultivation grounds for a long time, before it could be suffused with Mu En's aura and become such a fruit.
For light-type martial souls, this was an extraordinary opportunity.
Mu En had bestowed it upon him after he had accomplished something.
Under normal circumstances, he would have been unwilling to give it to anyone else.
But thinking of this child's talent, as well as his relationship with Ma Xiaotao, he could only reluctantly take it out.
