"Reporting to the Bishop, the young ladies have suffered damage to both their brains and minds. Although the damage is not severe, it will likely be difficult for them to regain consciousness..."
The Spirit Hall's main hall's exclusive medical Soul Master walked out of the ward, his face grim, and reported to his cardinal Zhao Tiancheng. He didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear.
The brain is a vital organ in the human body and has an irreparable nature. Once damaged, it can lead to loss of consciousness and a vegetative state, or even death.
"Your Shrek Academy is very good!"
With bloodshot eyes, Zhao Tiancheng's ferocious gaze swept over Flender and the others. If he hadn't been rational enough to know that Shrek Academy had the ruthless Tang Hao in charge, he would have immediately summoned his Martial Soul, the Dragon Courage Spear, and started killing.
After all, not only were the three juniors favored by the Grandmaster killed, but also his only daughter.
You have to understand, he only has one daughter in his entire life!
Now, however, he is destined to become a vegetable, lying in a hospital bed for the rest of his life, not even knowing when he will pass away.
How could he not be filled with resentment and rage?
"Bishop Zhao, calm down, please calm down!"
Flender was shocked and quickly explained, "This incident was completely accidental; none of us wanted such a disaster to happen..."
He was also quite helpless. He had originally planned to use some means to force the secret techniques taught by the Grandmaster into the mouths of those four people. He even specially invited a Soul Master friend with a mental ability to directly explore their memories.
But who would have thought that these four juniors were so fiercely independent? Before he could even make a move, the four of them used their Soul Power to attack his brain.
If he hadn't reacted quickly enough to suppress the Soul Power within them, the four of them would likely have died.
He dared not delay after such a big incident and immediately brought the four people back for treatment, but who would have thought that the result would be so unsatisfactory.
This is a huge problem!
"You should be thinking about how to explain this to the His Majesties!"
Before Flender could finish speaking, Zhao Tiancheng waved to the Templar Knights behind him.
"Take him away!"
If it were just his daughter who was murdered, that would be one thing, but the other three were juniors favored by the Grandmaster, who had even personally guided them, and one of them was a descendant of the Grandmaster's old friend.
The nature of the matter immediately changed, far exceeding his scope of handling. Therefore, as soon as he learned of the incident, he reported it to Spirit City through the Spirit Hall's internal communication network.
Given the Grandmaster's status in the Spirit Hall, he would surely send several Titled Douluo to handle this matter.
Upon hearing this, Flender and the others' expressions changed drastically, but before they could speak, Six Paths extremely violent auras mixed with Soul Power swept over them, followed by a furious shout full of killing intent.
" Flender brat, get out here!"
"Quickly, have the Xiao San invite His Majesty Tang Hao out of seclusion."
Suppressing his fear, Yu Xiaogang roared at Zhao Wuji behind him, his expression filled with anxiety and regret.
If he had known things would turn out this way, he would never have asked Flender to do it.
But it's too late to say anything now. If they want to save Shrek Academy, they can only ask Tang Hao, who is currently in seclusion recovering from his injuries, to help.
Not daring to wait long, Flender and his two companions rushed out of the medical facility. As soon as they came out, they saw Six Paths figures floating in mid-air. They had seen three of them a few days ago: the Demon Subduing Douluo and the Thousand Ton Douluo brothers, as well as Ghost Douluo.
As for the remaining three, although I haven't seen them before, judging from their aura and Soul Power, they are in no way inferior to the Demon Subduing Douluo brothers, and are obviously all veteran Titled Douluo.
This is really going to be a problem!
" Old Whitehead, go down and check on those four younger ones!"
Enraged, the Demon Subduing Douluo beckoned to an elderly man with white hair beside him, signaling him to go down and check on the injuries of Jiang Zhu other three.
The white-haired old man nodded, and in a flash, he appeared beside Jiang Zhu and the others who had been carried out by Zhao Tiancheng and the others. He gently pressed his palm on the foreheads of the four of them a few times, and after confirming that the injuries were within his control, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's a bit troublesome, but it can be handled!"
The white-haired old man looked up and nodded to the five Demon Subduing Douluo, indicating that the situation was still under control.
"Old men, do you really think I, Tang Hao, can't lift a hammer?"
Just then, a loud shout rang out, and Tang Hao's figure flew over rapidly, his killing intent surging forth as well.
He had only just begun his seclusion to recover from his injuries when he sensed the overwhelming aura and killing intent emanating from these people, narrowly avoiding a disruption of his Soul Power.
He was extremely annoyed by being disturbed like this repeatedly during his recovery period.
Not to mention that the Demon Subduing Douluo and his group came with great momentum, clearly indicating that they had no good intentions.
"Do you think we wanted to come here? If you hadn't gone too far, would we have bothered with you?"
The Demon Subduing Douluo's eyes also flashed with a fierce light. It was only because the situation of Jiang Zhu three was not too bad that they had already started fighting.
This time, a total of six Titled Douluo came, all of whom were at the same level as the two brothers. Even if Tang Hao was a fierce person, they were absolutely confident that they could beat him to a pulp.
They were even confident that they could kill them here if they did not flee and fight to the death.
Sensing the chilling killing intent of Demon Subduing Douluo and the others, Tang Hao forced himself to calm down, his gaze sweeping around before finally settling on Jiangzhu Jiang Zhu three people who were placed on stretchers.
He had met these four people a few times before, so they were familiar with him.
After sensing the terrible state of the four people's bodies, how could they not know what was going on?
Are you guys looking to die?
Tang Hao's angry gaze turned to Flender and the other two; he was truly enraged.
What are these three doing?
The person had barely left when their promising junior was turned into this mess. It would be strange if they didn't come after them.
Tang Hao now regrets listening to his wife Tang Yuehua's advice and arranging for their son, Xiao San, to attend Shrek Academy.
If this trend continues, the father and son will be ruined by this academy sooner or later.
"I have no moral obligation to get involved in this matter; you can handle it yourselves!"
With a cold snort, Tang Hao put away his Martial Soul Clear Sky Hammer and stepped aside, indicating that he would not interfere in the matter.
It was clearly Shrek Academy's fault, whether it was Flender and his group attacking the four children or other forces doing so.
In short, the incident happened while the person was studying at the Shrek Academy, so Shrek Academy cannot escape responsibility no matter what.
The Spirit Hall was in the right, so he couldn't say anything, much less help Shrek Academy start a fight.
At most, he'll just help protect his son's Shrek Team.
This can be considered more than enough!
"Your Excellencies, we do bear a great deal of responsibility for this matter, and we are willing to accept punishment."
After glancing at Tang Hao's resolute attitude, Flender and the other two exchanged glances and finally bowed their heads in bitter resignation. However, they wisely refrained from revealing that they were the ones who had intervened.
Otherwise, not only would they and the academy be forever infamous, but their lives would also be in danger.
"Considering that the four juniors can still be saved, we will spare you for now, but you will be spared the death penalty, but you will not escape punishment. We will give you six months."
"If you still can't catch the real culprit before the conclusion of this year's Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament finals, then an academy like Shrek Academy that can't protect its students has no reason to exist."
After giving Flender and his two companions a cold glance, the Demon Subduing Douluo and the others descended and stood guard beside Jiang Zhu and the other three, awaiting the white-haired old man's treatment.
If it were according to the Spirit Hall's previous way of doing things, they would have razed Shrek Academy to the ground long ago. But now that the Spirit Hall has undergone a complete reform, they must abide by the law and morality in everything they do, so they can't act arbitrarily, lest they damage the reputation of the Spirit Hall.
The white-haired old man truly lived up to his reputation as Titled Douluo specializing in healing; even irreparable damage like brain marrow was perfectly healed within half a day.
"Alright, rest for a month. During this time, you must not use your Soul Power. You will be fully recovered after a month."
Wiping the sweat from his brow, the white-haired old man gestured for Jiang Zhu other three, who had regained their senses, to get up.
The brain damage wasn't too severe to begin with, and the timely treatment allowed for such a quick recovery.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. It is our incompetence that has caused you trouble!"
As they rose from the stretcher, Jiang Zhu and the other three thanked the Demon Subduing Douluo and his companions apologetically, their faces showing remorse.
"It's not your fault. We didn't think Buzhou. We didn't expect some people to be so heartless and impatient. We've ruined you."
The Demon Subduing Douluo waved his hand, helping the four bowing figures to their feet with their shared Soul Power. He then nodded to the white-haired elder, signaling him to proceed with the First Tier of the plan.
"We can roughly guess what happened to you. We are very satisfied that you are willing to sacrifice yourselves to preserve the legacy passed down by Grandmaster."
You have two choices: either come back to the Spirit Hall with us now, or continue your training in the Soul Master World and join the Spirit Hall after you've completed your training.
However, to prevent this incident from happening again, I will leave a restriction in your minds.
At that time, not only will you yourselves be unable to reveal the inherited secrets through any means, but others will also be unable to probe your memories.
At the same time, your lives will be in my hands.
We choose the second option!
They exchanged glances, and the four of them, Jiang Zhu, all nodded resolutely.
They've already troubled the Spirit Hall enough; they wouldn't feel comfortable troubling them further.
Although they had made up their minds to join the Spirit Hall in the future, they also wanted to gain some experience in the Soul Master World first.
This was a plan they had made long ago; they would go to the Spirit Hall after completing their training.
"Congratulations on passing His Grandmaster Grandmaster's test. From today onwards, you are Grandmaster Majesty's students. This was specially prepared for you by His Majesty the Grandmaster before he came."
The Demon Subduing Douluo and his companions exchanged a smile, then took out four inheritance crystals and used their Soul Power to present them to Jiang Zhu and the other three.
Wang Hao also learned of this matter last night. Although he was very angry, he took countermeasures to prevent these four juniors from suffering again because of him.
This turn of events left Jiang Zhu and the other three somewhat bewildered; they never expected such good fortune to fall into their laps.
"Hurry up and take it!"
He gave a reproachful urging, while the Demon Subduing Douluo and the others were filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred towards the four juniors in front of them.
If a few days ago these four juniors were only considered to have a chance of rising to prominence, now they are certain to rise, and their future achievements will definitely far surpass theirs.
Although they have switched to a completely new Body Refinement, their potential has been largely depleted by the old Body Refinement, their future achievements will be far less than those of young people who have truly started cultivating anew.
The future achievements of these four little ones are truly limitless!
"Thank you, Your Excellencies! Thank you, Teacher!"
Coming to their senses, Jiang Zhu and the other three hurriedly and happily accepted the inheritance crystal in front of them. At the same time, they respectfully thanked the six Demon Subduing Douluo, and finally knelt down and bowed three times in the direction of Spirit City as a ceremony of becoming disciples.
From this day forward, that Grandmaster will be their official teacher.
These teachers are different from the teachers in the academy; it's a true teacher-student inheritance. Each Soul Master can only have one teacher in their lifetime, otherwise they will be despised by the Soul Master World.
