Meanwhile, after hearing the shouts of the many teachers from Yunluo Academy clearly...
Everyone, both inside and outside the arena, was stunned.
What was going on?
Was the real reason Yunluo Academy had not participated in the Soul Master Tournament different from what they had imagined?
Looking again at the bloodstains covering those people, everyone felt a sense of foreboding rise in their hearts.
"Stop!"
From atop the city wall, Xu Jiawei's furious shout thundered across the arena.
It proved extremely effective.
The Soul Masters on guard duty and the teachers from Yunluo Academy stopped fighting at the same time.
Thud, thud, thud. The teachers from Yunluo Academy dropped to their knees one after another, weeping in grief. "Your Majesty, please give our Yunluo Academy justice!"
Atop the city wall, Xu Jiawei asked with a stern, icy expression, "Tell me, what exactly happened to Yunluo Academy?"
"This morning, while the Dean was giving the students their final words of encouragement, a powerful attacker suddenly struck Yunluo Academy. There were terrible casualties..."
"And what was the outcome?"
"The Dean and those dozen or so children all lost their lives... over a dozen children in the bloom of youth, gone from this world just like that. It was truly horrific."
"And the Dean was a distinguished Level 7 Soul Engineer. He made vast numbers of Soul Tools for the empire and shed his blood for it on the battlefield!"
Boom!
After hearing the teachers' account, Xu Jiawei felt as though lightning had struck him, and his body swayed involuntarily.
It showed just how devastating a blow this news had dealt him.
After all, Yunluo Academy was one of the Star Luo Empire's pillar academies.
It had supplied the Star Luo Empire with countless elite Soul Engineers, rendering enormous service.
Nothing else needed
