When one side was in trouble, all sides added to the chaos; Yan Shaozhe's fury

"Junior Brother Lu Cheng, I've Jiujiu admired you. I've conveyed my brother's message. If you have time, let's chat at the hotel?" A gentle smile appeared on Xu Jiujiu's exquisite face, as lively and playful as a deer.

Her beautiful golden eyes, as smooth as water, scrutinized Lu Cheng.

This scene stunned many members of the Star Luo Team behind him, and even the Shrek disciples looked rather strange.

Is the Star Luo Empire... using a honey trap?

But thinking about it, it makes sense. With Lu Cheng's talent, he's more than capable of being a prince consort for Xu Jiujiu, and he might even lead Star Luo Empire to greatness again.

Yan Shaozhe Xu Jiujiu, "Princess Jiujiu, haven't you gone too far? Lu Cheng is a core disciple of the outer court of the Shrek Academy. He already carries the Shrek Academy's mark. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to openly poach him like this?"

"Shrek Academy isn't a sect," Xu Jiujiu chuckled softly. "There are countless dropouts and graduates. Being just an outer disciple probably doesn't prove anything. If Dean Yan were willing to offer Lu Cheng a position as the next generation's heir to the Sea God Pavilion, then I Jiujiu I would have dared to intrude like this."

In fact, she didn't want to offend Yan Shaozhe or Shrek.

But there's no way around it, Lu Cheng is just too delicious.

If we could actually dig it up...

In the coming decades, the Star Luo Empire will truly have nothing to fear from Shrek, and may even have the potential to unify the entire continent.

"Lu Cheng..."

Yan Shaozhe looked coldly at Lu Cheng.

His sharp gaze seemed to say, "You dare go to the Star Luo Hotel with her today?"

"Your Majesty's terms are indeed generous; allow me some time to consider them." Lu Cheng, seemingly oblivious to Yan Shaozhe's murderous rage, nodded slightly and smiled.

"It's alright, Junior Brother Lu Cheng. Just remember, the gates of the Star Luo Empire will always be open for you..." Xu Jiujiu's exquisite and charming face revealed a gentle smile, her tone was normal, and there was no disappointment in her eyes.

Eat your food one bite at a time.

Judging from Lu Cheng's appearance, he and Shrek are already estranged in name only, just one step away from a successful union.

Having said that, she raised her head, like a proud and elegant white Swan, and led the Star Luo Team towards the center of the arena. Today, in the quarterfinals, they would face off against another academy.

"Lu Cheng, I admit it was my fault last night, but you must remember this: you are a disciple of the Shrek Academy... If you dare to defect, Shrek Academy will fight you to the death. I will issue a kill order, and even if any force dares to accept you, Shrek will send people to bring you back!"

Seeing this, Yan Shaozhe secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

But she gritted her teeth and stared coldly at Lu Cheng, subtly threatening him.

"..."

"Dean Yan, you're quite arrogant. The more you talk, the more I want to defect," Lu Cheng said with a smile, raising an eyebrow.

"You... Hmph, from today onwards, unless it's the finals, you're not allowed to play again. Wherever you are, I must be there, otherwise..." Yan Shaozhe with a gloomy expression.

"What else?"

A calm female voice sounded from the side.

Zhang Lexuan crossed her arms over her chest, her beautiful face bearing a cold indifference as she stared silently at Yan Shaozhe.

"Lexuan, are you crazy?" Yan Shaozhe asked, frowning slightly.

He really couldn't understand why Zhang Lexuan was still siding with this young man at a time like this. She was the successor of the Sea God Pavilion, the Grandmaster of the inner courtyard, and the most talented young person besides Lu Cheng.

Faced with such a major issue of right and wrong, they still had to speak up for Lu Cheng.

Really...

"I told you, Lu Cheng is my man. You have no right to judge or threaten my people," Zhang Lexuan said calmly.

"You..." Yan Shaozhe clenched his fists, his face turning ashen.

The Grandmaster of the inner courtyard, leading the way in opposing him in front of countless people, isn't that exposing the internal conflicts of the Shrek Academy to everyone?

It is said that family scandals should not be aired in public, but Zhang Lexuan's actions have undoubtedly put him in a completely awkward position.

"Good, good, very good..."

Yan Shaozhe sneered, "Zhang Lexuan, once we return to the academy, I will definitely explain the situation to Mu En. Forget about your claim to the Sea God Pavilion Master position."

A sneer flashed in Zhang Lexuan's eyes, but she remained silent.

Yan Shaozhe made a harsh statement, but he was helpless and could only stand aside with a livid face. Now he couldn't even continue to threaten.

After all, Zhang Lexuan is no longer the same as before. Her Silver Moon Martial Soul seems to have undergone a mutation. When it advances to Blood Moon, her combat power is quite exaggerated. Although she only has the cultivation of a Level 92 ordinary Titled Douluo, even he can't do anything to her for a while.

They've grown wings!

Damn it, I shouldn't have let her leave the academy.

Now, things are completely out of his control.

Let's finish the competition early and then go back to the academy. We'll tell the teacher about this then, and then forcibly separate the two of them, hmph...

"Junior Brother Lu Cheng."

Another graceful and charming young woman appeared beside Lu Cheng, her eyes crinkling with a smile as she said, "Interested in coming to our Heavenly Soul Empire? We're especially friendly to those with Body Martial Soul here; for example, I have Brain Martial Soul."

Upon seeing Vina, the moment Princess Heavenly Soul appeared, Yan Shaozhe's face turned completely dark.

Everyone knows that although the Body Sect is secluded, its main base is in the Heavenly Soul Empire. Now that the imperial princess has Body Martial Soul, what does that mean? It means that the Heavenly Soul Royal Family has probably already formed a marriage alliance with the Body Sect, and the roots of the Body Martial Soul flow in the royal bloodline!

What he fears most is the Body Sect.

Those guys are brutal, savage, and unrestrained. If they realize Lu Cheng's talent, they will definitely try to forcefully take it from him. The harsh words they said to Lu Cheng earlier will not work in the Body Sect.

Those guys didn't care about the Shrek Academy; they always believed that anyone with Body Martial Soul was a disciple of their sect.

"The Body Martial Soul?"

Lu Cheng revealed a "surprised" smile, "The Body Martial Soul actually has its own faction?"

Seeing Lu Cheng's curious expression.

Vina also explained enthusiastically that she did not know that Lu Cheng had already conspired with Lang Ya, nor did she know that the sect leader Du Busi, had come here in person for Lu Cheng's sake. She only knew that the young man seemed to have some designs on him.

It's easy to understand. The boy, who was already all alone, was ostracized and neglected at the Shrek Academy. Now that he has met a real "family member," he might actually be able to poach someone from the other side.

Yan Shaozhe's face turned completely pale.

I broke out in a cold sweat.

Once Lu Cheng returns to the academy, the entire academy will be under martial law, and the young man must be confined to his quarters and forbidden from going out. Otherwise, those old fogies from the Body Sect might actually be capable of lying in wait outside the Shrek Academy and forcibly abducting students...

"Wait! The match is about to start!" Yan Shaozhe interrupted Vina hastily, stopping her from continuing. His expression softened as he looked at Lu Cheng: "Child, let's watch the match first. With Shrek's strong foundation, once you win the championship, you will certainly be rewarded handsomely. Don't worry about the Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone, or even all your future Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring..."

Having said that, he glared fiercely at Vina.

The little girl had never seen anything like this before and was immediately too frightened to speak.

"Lu, junior Lu, this is the city where my true form is... cough cough. If you'd like to go, you can... ask around, and he'll give you directions..."

Vina tremblingly handed Lu Cheng a business card, and then secretly communicated with him using their Spiritual Power.

He immediately turned and ran away, not daring to look at Yan Shaozhe who was practically devouring him.

"Oh?"

Lu Cheng examined the delicate handwriting on the note.

"Heaven Dou City..."

It turns out that the main base of the Body Sect is near Heaven Dou City. However, the area around Heaven Dou City is filled with dense forests and continuous mountain ranges. Perhaps the main body is stationed deep in the mountains, and the branch office is just stationed in Heaven Dou City.

A smile appeared on his face, and a flame shot out from his hand, instantly engulfing the note and turning it to ashes that scattered with the wind.

"Lu Cheng, don't believe those guys' nonsense." Yan Shaozhe was getting impatient.

"Our Shrek Academy is the true righteous school. Those guys have committed countless crimes throughout history. They wantonly hunted Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, causing beast tides and bringing disaster to the entire continent. Moreover, they acted with complete impunity..."

"The fact that they can slaughter Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast at will shows that they have formidable strength."

"His reckless behavior is quite to my liking."

Lu Cheng nodded slightly, pretending to be deep in thought.

He looked at Yan Shaozhe with some curiosity. "And I've heard that the Body Sect is quite protective of its own people, is that true or not?"

Yan Shaozhe's eye twitched violently.

It looks like something terrible is about to happen.

The reason he dared to bully Lu Cheng so wantonly before was simply because he thought that no matter how monstrous this kid was, he would still be thoroughly controlled by Shrek Academy... His apprentice Ma Xiaotao, had a good relationship with him, and there was a tendency for them to develop into a couple. He used Ma Xiaotao to hang him on a big tree at the Shrek Academy, and then wantonly manipulated him. After all, there are really many love-struck fools on this continent.

But now he's genuinely scared.

What if Lu Cheng really leaves?

That would be a devastating blow to the Shrek Academy.

Even if he hated Lu Cheng and was unwilling, he couldn't deny Lu Cheng's monstrous talent. He was definitely among the top three in the past ten thousand years, a sure thing for Limit Douluo, and even had a chance to challenge the legendary... God.

Their power is waning while ours is growing; what if Lu Cheng really does slip away to another faction?

Shrek Academy will be in deep trouble then, they won't even have time to cry.

"I don't know about that." Yan Shaozhe swallowed hard and shook his head.

"But the Body Sect doesn't have a good reputation on the continent. To put it bluntly, they're no different from Evil Soul Master. If I join, I can't guarantee I won't be skinned alive."

"That's still better than Shrek Academy letting me be bullied by Titled Douluo powerhouse, isn't it?" Lu Cheng said with a smile.

"..."

Yan Shaozhe's face darkened, and he shut his mouth completely.

Zhang Lexuan was watching intently from the side, but he couldn't bring himself to teach the kid a lesson.

But the unease in my heart only grew stronger.

It seems that Lu Cheng is truly out of control...
