Hearing Yan Shaozhe's question, Ma Xiaotao suppressed her laughter and explained the whole story to Yan Shaozhe.

"Didn't Dai Yueheng want to spar with Qiu'er? But he lost and got beaten up like this."

"Ma Xiaotao, you!"

Dai Yueheng was about to retort in anger, but then realized that he had no points to refute.

"Alright! Stop arguing."

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Yan Shaozhe raised his hand to signal them to stop.

He then first scanned the blood-soaked face with his gaze. Then he said to Dai Yueheng:

"Alright! Yueheng, it's fine if you're not as skilled as others. Go and take care of the wound on your face."

Dai Yueheng was filled with resentment but dared not disobey Yan Shaozhe's words. She could only glare fiercely at Ma Xiaotao and the others. Then, she limped towards the infirmary in the Inner Court.

Seeing that Dai Yueheng had left, many Inner Court students, finding no entertainment to watch, left the arena in twos and threes.

Only Yan Shaozhe, Huo Yuhao, and a few others remained at the scene.

Seeing that everyone had left, Yan Shaozhe said to Huo Yuhao with a hint of helplessness:

"Yuhao! I know you're very dissatisfied with Dai Yueheng, but the Continental Soul Master Tournament is next year. I still hope you can be a little more patient."

Upon hearing Yan Shaozhe, Huo Yuhao remained silent, while Ma Xiaotao grabbed Yan Shaozhe's arm and pleaded sweetly:

"Hey! Teacher, why don't we just kick that tiger Dai Yueheng out and bring Qiu'er in? Anyway, Dai Yueheng can't beat Qiu'er. Besides, that guy is hated by everyone in the team."

Yan Shaozhe was somewhat tempted by Ma Xiaotao's words, but since Dai Yueheng hadn't committed any major offenses, it wouldn't be appropriate to kick him out so easily.

"Alright, let's talk about this later."

Upon hearing her Teacher's words, Ma Xiaotao's wine-red eyes immediately lit up. According to her Teacher, there was hope for this matter.

"I knew Teacher were the best."

Seeing Ma Xiaotao clinging to his arm again, Yan Shaozhe rubbed his temples, feeling a headache coming on.

"I'm just glad you don't cause me any trouble. Having a disciple like you means I'll lose ten years of my life."

"Hey-hey!"

Yan Shaozhe's words made Ma Xiaotao stick out her tongue mischievously.

Just as Huo Yuhao and the others were about to leave, Yan Shaozhe suddenly called out to them from behind.

"Yuhao, you should be a little more discreet when bringing classmates to the Inner Court in the future."

This kid's luck with women is a bit too outrageous. The thought that his own disciple is one of them makes him very uncomfortable.

"Um?"

Huo Yuhao was somewhat confused by Yan Shaozhe's words. Was Dean Yan telling him to bring fewer students from the Outer Court to the Inner Court in the future?

That evening, at a restaurant outside the Shrek Academy.

Having almost completely healed her wounds, Dai Yueheng touched the scars left on her face, her eyes fixed on the scene outside the window with a sinister look.

"Young Master!"

"Come in!"

As soon as Dai Yueheng finished speaking, a burly man wearing white armor walked into the room.

How are the people my mother sent doing?

After the Duchess learned that Dai Huabin had dropped out of the Shrek Academy and that Huo Yuhao was still alive, Duchess decided to secretly have Huo Yuhao eliminated in order to prevent future troubles.

No, she didn't want to use the White Tiger Duke's Mansion's manpower. The real reason was that if she used the White Tiger Duke's Mansion's manpower, those elders who were usually in seclusion and didn't care about the affairs of the manor would find out.

If they knew that Huo Yuhao had achieved such success, they would definitely stop the Duchess's actions and welcome Huo Yuhao back. At that time, it would be hard to say who would inherit the Duke.

Upon hearing this, the man warily scanned his surroundings, then lowered his head and said:

"Madam, we previously placed bounties on some desperate criminals in private. Eight people have already accepted the offers."

"How strong are you?"

"All seven are Soul Saint!"

Hearing the servant's words, Dai Yueheng nodded in satisfaction.

"Very well, you may leave now!"

Just as the burly man was about to leave, Dai Yueheng stopped him.

Wait a minute!

"What are your orders, Eldest Young Master?"

Dai Yueheng didn't speak, but a hint of apprehension flashed in her eyes.

"Once Madam's people arrive, don't get involved in their operations. Just keep an eye on their movements."

Hearing Dai Yueheng's words, the burly man's expression relaxed. It was good that he didn't participate! After all, he wasn't one of those desperate criminals who didn't know the truth. He knew how highly regarded Huo Yuhao was at the Shrek Academy.

Regardless of whether the operation succeeds or fails, the participants will all die.

"Yes, sir!"

After bowing deeply to Dai Yueheng, the burly man carefully left the room.

Seeing the man leave, Dai Yueheng stood by the window again. However, unlike before, Dai Yueheng eyes were now filled with intense hatred and murderous intent.

On the other side, in a sparsely populated house, seven burly, fierce-looking men sat on a table laden with meat and wine, feasting heartily, seemingly unconcerned that the house was now filled with blood.

However, not everyone can tolerate this environment, and one of them couldn't help but complain:

"Brother! You went too far. You beat him up like this, there's blood everywhere, how are we supposed to stay here for the next few days!"

The man called "boss" waved his hand dismissively.

"Isn't there still the Old Fourth? We can have Old Fourth use his Martial Soul to cleanse himself later."

After the group had eaten and drunk their fill, the man called the "boss" took out a photo from his pocket and threw it on the table.

"This kid is our target."

One of the men, with an effeminate appearance, picked up Huo Yuhao's photo from the table and clicked his tongue in amazement, saying:

"This is our target this time, it looks really cool!"

"Alright, Old Fourth, I know you like this kind of thing, but this time we're killing people in Shrek City, so we need to get it over with quickly. At worst, you can take the body back with you."

Upon hearing the eldest brother's words, the Old Fourth couldn't help but grin. However, his grin was so wide that it almost reached his ears, making him look unusually frightening. As he grinned, he stuck out a forked tongue that was at least thirty centimeters long and licked the tip of his nose.

"I know the boss; I don't care if I die."

"Boss, how do we make our move?"

One of them raised his doubts.

"According to the information from the employer, this kid is a playboy with several women around him. Someone like that definitely can't stay in the academy. Let's wait until he leaves the academy and is far away before we make our move."

"It's x6"

These seven individuals were Duchess from the Heavenly Soul Empire. Due to the Heavenly Soul Empire's long-term brain drain, its government's control over the country was weak. This resulted in the Heavenly Soul Empire being largely controlled by various sects and families.

Because of the weakness of the government, bandits were rampant among the people. Among them, only these seven were the most outstanding.

All seven of them are now Soul Saint, all under fifty years old. The eldest is the most powerful, having reached level seventy-eight at the age of forty-three. He may one day be able to attain a title.

Therefore, the seven could be said to run rampant within the Heavenly Soul Empire, as long as they did not provoke those powerful families and sects.

It was precisely because no one dared to provoke the seven that they became so arrogant that they gave themselves the nickname "Seven Monsters of Heaven's Turmoil".

It means a monster that wreaks havoc on the souls of the heavens.
