Reunion with Ning Fengzhi

Yu Xiaogang thought for a moment and said, "Tian Heng, I'll leave the Nine Heart Begonia to you. I'll go and try to find Sect Master Ning of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect later."

Yu Tianheng nodded slightly, readily agreeing. He greeted Yu Xiaogang and then left Shrek Academy's rest area.

Salas, Ning Fengzhi, Ning Rongrong, Chen Xin, and others slowly walked into the rest area of the Blazing Gloom Academy.

Jun Xuehan looked at the person who walked in, lifted her leg off the chair, looked at Salas, and said, "Bishop Salas, please sit down."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jun Xuehan crossed his legs and calmly looked at Salas, completely ignoring Ning Fengzhi and the others.

"You..." Chen Xin looked at Jun Xuehan's appearance and was about to step forward to say something when Ning Fengzhi stopped her with his hand.

Ning Fengzhi shook his head slightly at Chen Xin, a gentle smile on his face, without saying anything.

Salas didn't sit down, but asked directly, "Jun Xuehan, Shrek Academy, we are investigating your Blazing Gloom Academy for premeditated murder during the competition. We are here to investigate the circumstances of the competition."

Salas adopted a businesslike demeanor, his gaze sweeping across the rest area.

"Premeditated murder? Has anyone died at the Shrek Academy?" Jun Xuehan asked casually, her hands behind her head.

"Although none of the Shrek Academy team members died during the competition, it is an undeniable fact that you seriously injured your opponent and nearly killed him." Salas's twins were behind him, their voices full of seriousness.

Jun Xuehan chuckled and said, "You were almost dead, but you didn't die. Since you didn't die, the claim of premeditated murder is naturally baseless. As for seriously injuring your opponent, I don't think that's true either. In a competition, who can guarantee that the Soul Skill' Eyeless' can defeat an opponent without harming them in the slightest?"

"Soul Skill are blind, so getting injured in a match is inevitable. After all, opponents won't hold back in a match; whoever it is, they will do their best to defeat their opponent and win the match."

Jun Xuehan's eyes were slightly closed, her voice full of indifference and nonchalance.

Jun Xuehan wasn't particularly surprised that Tang San hadn't died. After all, he had a vague feeling that his attack had missed on the Soul Dueling Stage, and his final strike had failed because of Sword Dao Chen Xin's intervention.

"Then at the last moment, you used your Martial Soul Qianzhe to pierce Tang San's chest. How do you explain that?" Salas frowned slightly and pressed for an explanation.

"Tang San threw an object at me first, breaking the rules of the competition, so I used my Qianzhe to pierce him. Is it necessary to talk about rules with someone who has already broken them?" Jun Xuehan chuckled and slowly opened her closed eyes.

"Sect Master Ning, what do you think we should do about this?" Salas turned to Ning Fengzhi, who was standing to the side, and asked softly.

"If no one died, the claim of premeditated murder during the competition is naturally uncertain. Soul Skill are indiscriminate, and injuries are inevitable. Shrek Academy breaking the rules first is also an indisputable fact. But since we are going to investigate, we can't just listen to one side's story. We need to hear the accounts of the Shrek Academy participants before making a fair and just conclusion." Ning Fengzhi smiled and answered softly.

Salas nodded slightly and said, "Sect Master Ning is right. We need to handle this matter Treat Everyone Equally and impartially. Therefore, we cannot only listen to one side's account. We will go to the Shrek Academy to investigate after the Shrek Academy participants have recovered somewhat from their injuries."

"The rest of you from the Blazing Gloom Academy can participate in the competition as normal, but you Jun Xuehan, need to wait for the investigation results before making a decision. Tang San from the Shrek Academy, like you, is temporarily suspended from the competition."

Salas cleared his throat, announced the preliminary results, and then left. Ning Fengzhi, however, stood quietly in place, showing no intention of leaving.

"Sect Master Ning, aren't you leaving with me?" Salas turned to Ning Fengzhi and asked softly.

"I have some personal matters to attend to at the Blazing Gloom Academy, so I'll have to leave now." Ning Fengzhi smiled gently at Salas, then sat down directly in front of Jun Xuehan.

"Sect Master Ning, you mustn't show favoritism or engage in favoritism." Salas narrowed his eyes and walked straight out of the rest area.

After Salas left, Jun Xuehan turned her gaze to Ning Fengzhi and said indifferently, "Sect Master Ning, if you have something to say, please say it as soon as possible. Our Blazing Gloom Team members haven't eaten yet."

Chen Xin frowned slightly, clearly dissatisfied with Jun Xuehan's attitude, but before he could speak, Ning Fengzhi his hand to stop him.

"Since that's the case, then I'll be frank. It seems that your Blazing Gloom Academy doesn't have any substitute players, right? Now that you're suspended, is your team lacking Support System Soul Master?" Ning Fengzhi didn't care about Jun Xuehan's attitude at all; his gentle voice was like a breeze.

"We don't lack anyone. Our team has no shortage of people, and we certainly don't lack Support System Soul Master. You should ask around at the Shrek Academy; they should be short of people." Jun Xuehan chuckled, her refusal was very decisive, leaving no room for negotiation.

"We haven't seen each other for two years, there's no need for us to be so stiff," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile, shaking his head.

"Sect Master Ning, please don't say that. After all, we weren't familiar with each other to begin with." Jun Xuehan looked at Ning Fengzhi, her voice completely indifferent.

Ning Fengzhi slowly said, " On the Soul Dueling Stage, we could say that we helped you by taking action against Uncle Sword. If your final blow had landed, the charge of premeditated murder would have been confirmed."

"Moreover, Tang San's Martial Soul comes from the Clear Sky Sect. If you kill him in front of everyone, not only you, but also the Wind Snow Pavilion will be in trouble."

Upon hearing this, Jun Xuehan smiled and said, "Hehe, then I really have to Sect Master Ning."

In Jun Xuehan's view, using the opportunity of the competition to kill Tang San was a sure-fire way to make money.

As for the Clear Sky Sect, whether they acknowledge Tang San or not is a question. Even if the Clear Sky Sect did acknowledge Tang San, Jun Xuehan wouldn't care about the Clear Sky Sect at all.

Looking at Jun Xuehan's smile and hearing his words, Ning Fengzhi felt something was off.

"No need for thanks. I see that your Blazing Gloom Academy only has seven team members. Since you are suspended, you don't have any substitutes. Would you like to consider recruiting a Support System Soul Master as a substitute?" Ning Fengzhi looked at Jun Xuehan and asked softly.
