Last night, the recording of Lin Xi interrogating the Soul Emperor who assassinated him resounded throughout almost the entire Shrek Academy.
This is what Lin Xi did.
The look he gave Huo Yutong before interrogating the enemy last night was a signal for her to start recording.
Next, he copied the recording onto tens of thousands of voice recorders in his dormitory, and then Melusine and the others to distribute it to every corner of the college, and then turned the volume up to the maximum using a loudspeaker.
The voice recorder was only a half-level Soul Tool, requiring very little Soul Power. Morgan simply cast two Magecraft, and all the voice recorders in the entire academy could be used simultaneously.
Now, all the students are listening in shock as the Soul Emperor recounts the truth of the matter, word by word.
With each sentence uttered, Dai Huabin's face paled a little more.
It's over, it's all over.
Things have escalated to this point, and a peaceful resolution is no longer possible.
And it's obvious who will be more disadvantaged by the following developments.
Lin Xi looked at him like that and gave a cold snort.
Actually, if Yan Shaozhe could give them a reasonable outcome, he wouldn't be unwilling to let the matter pass like this.
After all, Yutong wants to take revenge herself, and her strength is not yet sufficient. Revealing herself too early might not be a good thing.
Unfortunately Yan Shaozhe made the wrong choice.
Treasure? Is that what he wants?
He wants an explanation!
An assassination attempt occurred at the academy, yet the culprit continued to attend classes peacefully in the classroom—this is the style of the top academy on the mainland.
Although Lin Xi had long guessed that things might develop this way, she couldn't help but feel somewhat disappointed when the facts were actually presented to her.
Since these people have no shame, then he doesn't need to care about their feelings anymore.
What will the college do next?
Regardless of Shrek's true nature, it still exists as an academy and cannot be indifferent to events that have a significant impact on its reputation.
The first to arrive was, unsurprisingly, Yan Shaozhe.
Less than two minutes after the recording started, he rushed into the classroom and stood in front of Lin Xi.
"Turn it off quickly!"
Without even asking, he was already certain that the kid in front of him had done it.
He's the only one with a motive to do this, and considering the disappointed look in his eyes this morning, who else could it be but him?
Lin Xi asked Yan Shaozhe with a strange expression:
" Dean Yan, is this something you should be saying right now?"
As the dean of the college, the first thing I thought about when faced with this kind of thing was not how to handle it or how to explain it to the students, but how to suppress the matter. It was just too abstract.
Do you really think everyone's a fool, believing everything the college says?
Yan Shaozhe clicked his tongue, realizing what was happening, and said to the curious students around him:
"Don't overthink it, everyone. The academy will handle this matter seriously. Lin Xi, let's go!"
Without waiting for Lin Xi's permission, he grabbed him and slipped out of the classroom.
Seeing the students' amused expressions, he realized that this matter could no longer be suppressed.
The only thing he can do now is to try his best to minimize the losses.
In less than ten seconds, they had reached a secluded corner, yet even there, Lin Xi's recorded voice continued to confess Dai Huabin's crimes.
Yan Shaozhe asked with a dark face:
" Lin Xi, why are you doing this? Didn't I promise to compensate you?"
Lin Xi smiled.
"I didn't accept them."
Yan Shaozhe said urgently:
"That's because you don't know how valuable they are! Lin Xi, you're still too young and too impatient. You should have confirmed things before taking any action."
He still didn't understand what Lin Xi really wanted.
"I'm sorry, Dean Yan, but even if you give me all the treasures from the entire Treasure Appraisal Fair, I won't back down unless Dai Huabin receives appropriate punishment."
Lin Xi's eyes turned cold.
"Let's be frank. If it hadn't been me, or some core disciple, who was attacked by Dai Huabin's men last night, but just an ordinary student, would he have succeeded? And after that, how would you have dealt with Dai Huabin? I consider myself of great value to Shrek. If this is your attitude after I was assassinated, how can I believe you will defend the rights of your students?"
Yan Shaozhe was momentarily speechless, after all, the answer to Lin Xi's question was obvious.
But he couldn't back down, so he replied:
"Didn't I promise you I wouldn't let Dai Huabin into the inner courtyard?!"
However, Lin Xi only replied coldly.
"Really? But I don't believe it."
Hilarious! That's what they said in the original story too, but what happened in the end?
Dai Huabin not only entered the inner courtyard, but he was even able to represent Shrek Academy in the second tournament!
Yan Shaozhe's promises were like empty words; not a single one of them had been fulfilled. How could Lin Xi trust him?
Not to mention, even if Dai Huabin were permanently banned from entering the inner courtyard, Lin Xi wouldn't be satisfied. A matter involving Life can be resolved simply by barring him from entering the inner courtyard? Dream on.
Seeing that Yan Shaozhe couldn't win the argument with Lin Xi, an old voice rang out.
"Hmph, Yan Shaozhe, why bother arguing with him? I think he's deliberately targeting Shrek. It's pointless to say anything more; let's just teach him a lesson."
As she spoke, the surrounding earth began to shake, and a yellowish-brown aura rose up. A disheveled old man appeared out of nowhere and pounced on Lin Xi.
Lin Xi's body tensed up instantly.
As expected, Xuan Zi made his move.
Just as he had expected, he had anticipated that doing this would likely lead him to clash with this old geezer.
Xuan Zi's thinking was simple: Lin Xi was ultimately just an orphan with no status or background. Perhaps she was a little talented, but so what? At the Shrek Academy, students without connections could be manipulated however they wanted.
They got Lin Xi under their control, made him apologize to the entire academy, and said that the recording was just a prank and nothing serious.
He's a Level 98 Super Douluo, and Yan Shaozhe is level 95; there's no way they could let Lin Xi escape under these circumstances.
The first thing to do is to teach this kid a lesson and let him know what's truly important.
However, just as his hand was about to touch Lin Xi, a golden stream of energy suddenly appeared, blocking his attack and sending him flying.
Mu En's furious voice rang out.
"Enough, Xuan Zi, aren't you ashamed enough already?!"
" Mu En!"
Xuan Zi rolled on the ground and asked incredulously:
"I... I did this for the academy!"
"Shut up!"
The golden power struck Xuan Zi again, forcing him to shut his mouth.
Mu En's voice was unusually unsteady.
" Yan Shaozhe, holding Sea God Pavilion Meeting? I never imagined you'd stoop to this level! Nonsense!"
Then, he took a deep breath, barely managing to compose himself, and said to Lin Xi:
"Don't worry, child, we will definitely give you an explanation."
"... Um."
Lin Xi responded.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Whether Mu En stands with him or not, the difficulty level is completely different.
Even when facing Xuan Zi, he was still confident that Morgan could use the Water Mirror to help him, Yutong, and Qiu'er escape easily.
However, facing Limit Douluo has mastered the power of space, given the vast difference in their strength, it would likely take him a considerable amount of effort to escape.
Fortunately, Mu En wasn't too corrupt.
Now we just wait for the results.
