Yan Shaozhe, the Bright Phoenix Douluo, is the personal disciple of Dragon God Mu En, Martial Soul Bright Phoenix.
Such a "pure and upright" genius should, in theory, not just be a Level 95 Super Douluo at this age.
However, Mu En once personally commented on this disciple of his, saying that he lacked a sense of magnanimity, which resulted in a deficiency in his mental state and thus slow progress in his cultivation.
It can only be said that he is indeed the offspring of Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui. Even though he was personally raised by Mu En, some of his inherent personality traits cannot be changed.
Yan Shaozhe's flaws aren't limited to being petty; many of his ideas are quite dangerous.
It could even be said that Yan Shaozhe was partly to blame for the "bombardment" of the Shrek Academy ten thousand years later.
The Holy Spirit Cult transported a level 12 Godslayer Soul Cannon into Shrek City. This was not only due to the secret assistance of the Spirit Pagoda 'Qiangu Dongfeng, but also with the tacit approval of the Federation at the time.
It's clear that Shrek's domineering and powerful nature had already made it unacceptable to many forces.
It can be said that after Yan Shaozhe, the atmosphere at Shrek Academy gradually changed, becoming more self-centered and domineering.
That being said, although Yan Shaozhe had cursed Xuan Zi's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart, he did not show it on the surface and was still trying his best to defend him.
" Xuan Zi, you can't be entirely blamed this time. After all, no one could have imagined that a Soul King- level Evil Soul Master could unleash an attack at the Soul Saint level."
"Furthermore, as the commander, Xiaotao acted rashly and without sufficient caution, so she also bears some responsibility."
" Xuan Zi, you are the backbone of the academy; the academy cannot do without you."
He said things against his conscience, and even went so far as to drag his own disciples down with him.
All of this was done to keep Xuan Zi in the Sea God Pavilion.
After all, without such a powerful figure in charge, Yan Shaozhe wouldn't feel at ease as the dean.
"This isn't the first time something like this has happened. I'm so sorry for the students who died or were injured. I have no face to stay in the Sea God Pavilion any longer."
Xuan Zi's eyes were unfocused, and his slightly dejected face was full of regret. He hadn't even had the appetite to eat a chicken leg all day.
" Xuan Zi!"
Encouraged by Yan Shaozhe's gaze Xian Lin'er, the dean of the Soul Tool Department, also spoke up, " Xuan Zi, everyone knows about the flaws in your Martial Soul. At worst, we won't let you lead the team anymore, but the Sea God Pavilion really needs you to take charge!"
Xuan Zi shook his head. "Everyone, please stop talking. I will never forgive myself."
" Yao Haoxuan and Zhu Lu come from influential families. I will personally visit them to apologize and do my best to ease their grief."
Yan Shaozhe gritted his teeth upon hearing this, secretly resentful, feeling that Xuan Zi was deliberately bringing up this matter.
Gongyang Mo is dead too, why didn't he say anything? It's because the power behind him was small, so he couldn't cause any trouble.
Even though he felt that Xuan Zi was just asking others to clean up his mess, Yan Shaozhe really had to help at this moment.
He immediately said, " Xuan Zi, I will personally handle the matter of providing compensation to the families of the injured and deceased students. You don't need to worry about these things."
"I still cannot forgive myself. My mind is made up, and you all need not try to persuade me any further."
After saying this, Xuan Zi stood up and made a move to walk outside.
"Return!"
A calm yet authoritative voice suddenly rang out, and Xuan Zi stopped abruptly after taking only two steps.
After the start of this Sea God Pavilion Meeting, Sea God Pavilion Master Mu En, who was sitting in the main seat, spoke for the first time.
Xuan Zi turned around, his face full of grief, and said, " Mu En, please let me go. I really have no face to stay."
Mu En didn't reply, but instead slowly stood up from the recliner.
Back then, he fought a Du Bisou battle with the sect leader of the Body Sect, Du Bisi. Although he survived, he was severely injured and paralyzed, unable to straighten his back.
As the power of light bloomed within him, his body, which had been bent at a ninety-degree angle, slowly straightened up, his gaze fixed intently on Xuan Zi beside him.
Sea God Pavilion, everyone was silent with fear. These so-called elders were all juniors in front of Mu En, after all, Mu En was a renowned powerhouse on the continent two hundred years ago.
"What's done is done, and nothing you do afterward will change anything!"
"My lifespan won't exceed five years. If there weren't strong individuals to guard the academy after my death, do you think I would still keep you in the Sea God Pavilion after what happened with that girl Lexuan last time!"
Everyone in the pavilion was shocked by Mu En's words.
This statement is about Xuan Zi, but it also refers to them.
If one of them could become a Level 98 Super Douluo, why would Mu En have to struggle so hard?
Xuan Zi was nearly two hundred years old, and he lowered his head in embarrassment. He was truly ashamed this time.
Mu En's gaze swept over everyone, and the oppressive aura of the Radiant Sacred Dragon swept through the Sea God Pavilion like a wave of air, causing everyone to become solemn.
Mu En then continued, " Xuan Zi, you will step down as the deputy head of the Shrek Inspection Corps. You will stay at the academy and teach the students. You are not allowed to lead teams out alone from now on."
" Lin'er!"
Suddenly called upon, Xian Lin'er quickly responded, " Mu En!"
"After the meeting, order a set of Flying Soul Tool and a Defensive Soul Tool for all Inner Court disciples!"
After saying that, he looked at his disciple Yan Shaozhe, who was about to speak, his gaze turning cold, and snorted, "This expense will come from your Martial Soul Department. Anyone who objects can leave the academy."
Hearing what the teacher said, Yan Shaozhe promptly shut up.
Xian Lin'er was overjoyed and said, "Don't worry, Mu En, I will handle this matter well."
"Teacher, what about the Star Luo Empire's competition? They only have a few reserve players left."
Yan Shaozhe then brought up the matter again.
Seeing that Mu En was still pondering, Cai Mei'er, the vice dean of the Martial Soul Department, spoke up, " Mu En, there are two more disciples in the Inner Court who meet the requirements. They are both Soul King and their cultivation is not bad. Sending them over might be able to hold out until Ma Xiaotao and Dai Yueheng recover."
Mu En shook his head. "There's no need. There's no need to send reinforcements. Let this year's competition take its natural course."
Xuan Zi, who had been silent all along, suddenly raised his head and exclaimed in surprise, " Mu En, if we don't send reinforcements, our Shrek Academy's ten-thousand-year championship is going to be lost!"
"Yes, Mu En, we can't let the championship slip through our fingers."
"This concerns Shrek's honor, Mu En."
The other elders in the pavilion also spoke up, clearly disagreeing with Mu En's decision.
Mu En's aura suddenly erupted, revealing the overwhelming power of Level 99 Limit Douluo.
Even though everyone seated Sea God Pavilion was Titled Douluo, they instantly fell silent.
" Shrek's glory has never been won through winning these competitions."
"I think some people's mindsets have changed over the years; they've long been hijacked by the so-called honor."
"I think losing once might be a good thing for the academy."
"That's settled then!"
Mu En even revealed his Martial Soul, so no one dared to contradict this Dragon God Douluo at this moment, and they all readily agreed.
However, with such a large academy, it's impossible for Mu En to have complete control over everything.
Two-faced acts of compliance can happen anywhere.
Right after the Sea God Pavilion Meeting ended, Yan Shaozhe specifically sought out Xuan Zi.
" Xuan Zi, I have already chosen the people. Please take them to the Star Luo Empire as soon as possible!"
