Chapter 128 Mu En's Resolve: Execution of Xuanzi and Zhou Yi
Xuanzi: ? ? ?
Shouldn't he have resigned from all his positions himself, and then the elders of the Sea God Pavilion present repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay, and then he reluctantly stayed?
This script is wrong!
Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment.
What did Elder Mu just say? Is he really going to fire Elder Xuan?
Yan Shaozhe looked at Elder Xuan, who seemed at a loss, and hesitated for a long time before slowly asking.
"Teacher, this matter is of great importance, shouldn't we discuss it again—"
Moon waved his hand sternly, "There's nothing to discuss! It's settled!"
The dean of the Soul Guidance Department, Xian Lin'er, glanced at Xuan Zi, then at Mu En, whose face was ashen, and exchanged glances with her mother, Elder Song.
They all knew that Elder Mu couldn't hold on for more than a few years. Shrek Academy still needed Elder Xuan to keep the villains in check, but if Elder Xuan was dismissed from all his positions at this time, wouldn't that be self-destructive?
Moon knew all this, but there was nothing he could do. Some people are more dangerous as your teammates than as your enemies.
Moon knew about Shrek's current predicament; they were surrounded by enemies on all sides. These difficulties were not a recent development, but rather the result of thousands of years of distorted educational views and domineering behavior.
He felt he was already an old man with one foot in the grave, so he chose to trust the wisdom of future generations.
But things didn't go as planned, so Moon decided to launch one last charge before he died!
What will happen to Shrek next? Only God knows.
"As for Xuanzi—" Mu En looked at Xuanzi, whose mind had gone blank and who hadn't yet reacted, "Don't you always have trouble controlling your mouth? It's alright, I'll help you control it!"
Two yellow, one purple, three black, and three red—nine complete spirit rings slowly appeared on his body. A resounding dragon roar suddenly rang out, and the entire conference room was instantly filled with a sea of light. With the amplification of the Golden Tree, everyone, including Xuanzi, was suppressed in place by the powerful spirit aura unique to Limit Douluo and could not move.
For so many years, they had never seen this Dragon God Douluo make a move.
Like a golden lightning bolt, Mu En arrived in front of Xuan Zi in an instant and slapped Xuan Zi on the head.
Golden light surged into Xuanzi's body. Xuanzi wanted to cry out, but he was suppressed by the powerful soul force and could neither speak nor move.
Mu En is sealing Xuanzi's soul power!
"teacher----"
Mu En remained unmoved and instead increased his soul power output. However, a minute later, he withdrew his martial soul.
In just a short while, Xuanzi's powerful level 98 soul power and spiritual power were sealed by Mu En. Now, Xuanzi is just an ordinary person with the body of a Super Douluo.
Those present were shocked; the power of the Limit Douluo was on full display.
Of course, the main reason was that Xuanzi himself didn't have time to resist and he was just too weak. If it were someone of the same cultivation level as Du Busi, Mu En definitely wouldn't have been able to do it so easily, and it would even be a question whether he could have won.
Mu En casually opened an underground space in the Golden Tree and kicked Xuanzi inside.
"When your stomach is empty, your mind will wander more. Reflect on your actions while you're inside!"
"6
""
The Poseidon Pavilion meeting room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. The elders exchanged glances and held a private meeting, all of which Mu En observed.
Moon, abandoning his usual mild-mannered demeanor, spoke with the firmness and unwavering authority of a leader: "We can discuss your thoughts later. What I've addressed today is the issue of Shrek Academy!"
"You're not blind or deaf; you know what situation Shrek Academy is in on the Douluo Continent right now. Let me tell you, whether you want to admit it or not, you have to understand that the three great empires are actually the most hostile to us!"
"Therefore, if the academy wants to survive, it must reform!"
Then Mu En looked at the four deans and vice-deans of the Martial Soul Department and Soul Guidance Department, who were also his four students, and asked, "I heard that there's a teacher in the outer academy who has expelled several hundred students, named Zhou Yi, right?"
The four deans instinctively exchanged glances, even Xian Lin'er and Cai Mei'er, who had always been at odds, were somewhat at a loss.
As the dean, they were naturally aware of Zhou's arbitrary expulsions of students, but since Zhou Yi's classes had the highest college entrance rate, the key was still to rely on Zhou Yi to keep Fan Yu, the student closest to becoming a level nine soul master.
Although all four deans disapproved of her actions, nothing serious happened, and she had already been taught a lesson. Over time, the four deans forgot about her.
Old Mu thought to himself, "Could it be that—"
"This one bad apple has ruined the futures of so many good students—" Moon muttered, then his tone hardened. "Kill him. Execute him publicly in the central square of Shrek City next Sunday!"
"!!!"
The murderous intent in Old Mu's voice was genuine. Qian Duoduo hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "What if someone pleads for me?"
"No."
Yan Shaozhe wanted to salvage the situation one more time. "Teacher, shouldn't you reconsider? After all, she's a veteran teacher with so many years of experience, and more importantly, it's not a good influence—not to mention what about Fan Yu—"
Mu En opened his eyes and looked at Yan Shaozhe, his dim golden eyes filled with an indescribable sense of intimidation.
"I remember I just said the word 'no,' can't you understand human language?"
Yan Shaozhe was embarrassed. "—No, no."
"Lin'er," Mu En said authoritatively, "After the Sea God Pavilion meeting, all inner court disciples must come to you to have at least one flying soul tool and one defensive soul tool custom-made, preferably along with soul tool armor of the same level. Anyone who objects, don't tell me, just tell them to get lost."
"Yes!" A hint of joy appeared on Xian Lin'er's face, and Qian Duoduo next to her couldn't help but show a victorious smile.
Yan Shaozhe hesitated for a moment, then cautiously asked, "Teacher, shouldn't we discuss this again...? Acting so rashly in the Martial Soul Department might be..."
Mu En ignored him and turned to Qian Duoduo, who was standing to the side, and said, "Duoduo, after the meeting, go and dismantle all the soul tools in Yan Shaozhe's office and room."
"If Yan Shaozhe dares to use any soul tool, including storage soul tools, just beat him up without asking me. If Yan Shaozhe dares to fight back, just blow him up with your fixed-position soul-guided cannon!"
Yan Shaozhe: "————??"
I haven't said anything yet!
Qian Duoduo was taken aback at first, then glanced at Yan Shaozhe with ill intent, chuckled, and said, "It's a teacher!"
Mu En looked at Yan Shaozhe with icy eyes and said indifferently, "You don't need to be the dean of the Martial Soul Department anymore. Mei'er, you're promoted to dean directly, and later you'll promote Le Xuan to vice dean."
J
Yan Shaozhe was completely stunned. He was dismissed just like that?! He was treated the same as Xuanzi?
"This is my stance. Now that I've crippled Xuanzi, I don't care about crippling Yan Shaozhe as well. This is the most crucial moment. Anyone who dares to shirk responsibility will be personally executed by me!"
All the elders present couldn't help but straighten their chests and shout, "Yes!"
"Now, every one of you, remember this!"
"We Shrek are not invincible. We are human too; we can lose, and we can make mistakes."
"If you don't want to perish, you must reform!"
Then Mu En went on to describe a series of reform measures, including compensation for the families of those who died in the inspection and for students who had been arbitrarily expelled by Zhou Yi, and to vigorously promote soul tools, etc.
Moon knew how much damage this would do to Shrek's reputation, but losing reputation was better than being completely forgotten in the annals of history.
He knew very well that the war between the original Three Kingdoms and the Sun Moon Empire on the Douluo Continent would soon break out, and no matter which side won, they would no longer tolerate the existence of an independent kingdom like Shrek.
You either go along with the crowd or stand out from the crowd; there's no other choice.
Finally, the topic turned to the upcoming Continental Elite Tournament in Star Luo City, as it concerned the glory that Shrek Academy cherishes most.
It would be a lie to say I don't care about a glory that has lasted for millennia.
On the one hand, they talk about reforming the system, but on the other hand, they cling to Glory. Mu En just can't bring himself to refuse, because Glory is something that is engraved in the bones of every Shrek person.
At this moment, Mr. Zhuang walked over from outside the meeting room.
"Elder Mu, Xu Sanshi and Bei Bei have awakened. Although Xu Sanshi's martial soul was shattered, fortunately his bloodline is strong and his foundation is solid. With the help of medicinal pills, he should be able to recover to normal in about a week. As for Bei Bei, she injured her internal organs, but with your light power to nourish her, she has recovered most of her health."
Moon showed no outward change in expression, but inwardly he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
To be honest, the main reason I was determined to severely punish Xuanzi was because I saw my only great-grandson become like that in Xuanzi's hands.
"But—" Elder Zhuang said with some difficulty, "Beibei begged me to participate in this Soul Fighting Tournament, but I'm worried that his old injury might be worsened by a new one—"
Moon said in a deep voice, "Then let him go!"
"But Elder Mu, his injuries require at least a month of rest to be considered safe."
"Ignore him! Just consider it a lesson learned!"
"----yes."
Qian Duoduo suggested, "Teacher, Xingluo City only has three regular team members. Should we send someone to reinforce them? The inner academy has at least one disciple from the Soul Guidance Department who is old and capable enough to participate, or else—"
Moon took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "No need, let them do it themselves!"
Right now, Moon doesn't really have any better options. If losing this time makes all the Shrek Academy students realize that Glory isn't just about winning matches, that would be good too.
If we can win —
Moon didn't dare rely on that, unless the little guy was willing to risk his life for Shrek.
But his attitude was a headache for Moon. He wished he had talked to the kid beforehand.
"This—" Cai Meier, who had just been promoted, said uneasily, "Teacher, this concerns the honor of the academy—"
"Why don't we have Shao Zhe take that disciple and Bei Bei to Xingluo City?"
She specifically named Yan Shaozhe, naturally wanting to give her husband another chance, a thought that Mu En was well aware of.
Mu En's so-called reform this time is not just touching the pie of the Martial Soul System, but overturning the table of the Martial Soul System—so as a former beneficiary, Cai Meier still wants to fight for it one last time.
"No need! Lin'er, after the meeting, you and Lao Zhuang will go to Xingluo City in person. Remember, don't be hasty in any situation, be careful not to cause any more deaths on the field, and work with Le Xuan to protect the children's safety."
Xian Lin'er stood up and respectfully replied, "Yes, teacher."
"Also, after the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament concludes, you should send a letter to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy in the name of the Soul Guidance Department, requesting an exchange program. Send our Soul Guidance Department students to them for exchange and learning. As long as they agree to let us go first, they can also send ten students to us for exchange and learning."
"This—Elder Mu, even if they agree, our students will probably—"
A hint of seriousness flashed in Moon's dim eyes. "Times are progressing, and our ideas must also keep moving forward, taking shortcuts and overtaking others. When that time comes, our trainees will know what they should be doing."
Xianlin'er and Qian Duoduo naturally understood the implied meaning in these words.
"—It's the teacher."
Tang Ya sat in her dormitory, her pretty face pale as she glared at Shrek Academy outside the window with resentment.
Why—why, since these are all forces left behind by Tang San's ancestors, why didn't they lend a helping hand to the Tang Sect in their most critical moment?!
If you had helped even a little back then, Mom and Dad wouldn't be in this situation—not at all—
It's been over a year since she broke through to the third ring, but her soul power progress has been getting slower and slower, and she's only at level thirty-three now. She's already in fifth grade, and it's doubtful whether she'll even be able to graduate in sixth grade.
The Fourth Ring Road is even further away, with no end in sight.
The Tang Sect is still in a state of half-dead. Calling it a sect is a stretch; it's really just a small group of a handful of people. Who knows when it will ever be able to revive into a proper sect?
Tears streamed down Tang Ya's delicate face. She was only a fifteen-year-old girl, yet she already carried too much burden on her shoulders.
"I'm sorry, Beibei—I'm sorry, Mom and Dad—" Tang Ya wiped away her tears and clenched her fists.
"I—I want—"
Power, the thirst for power, led Tang Ya to unleash a part of her talent that she had kept hidden all along.
But she didn't dare tell Beibei, because that was no different from being an evil spirit master!
After the Sea God Pavilion meeting ended and all the elders left, only Yan Shaozhe and Mu En remained.
Despite being nearly a hundred years old, Yan Shaozhe still acted somewhat awkwardly and walked uneasily to Mu En.
"Teacher, perhaps you should rescind your order—"
Instead, Mu En said to Yan Shaozhe very seriously, "Did you think I was joking with you? You're not—"
"You look down on soul tools? Then don't use them in the future."
Yan Shaozhe blushed deeply. "At least—I need to get something too. I can at least use my storage soul tool, right?"
"After reaching the Limit Douluo level, one can open up a small space for storage."
"Don't you think that Soul Masters are stronger than Soul Tools? Then make that your goal in cultivation."
Yan Shaozhe was speechless. Limit Douluo? He'd only advanced one level in over thirty years; when would he ever become a Limit Douluo?
Moon glared at him, flicked his sleeve, and shouted, "Get lost!"
An irresistible force was unleashed by him, violently blowing Yan Shaozhe heavily out of the Sea God Pavilion and into the Sea God Lake.
Finally, it was quiet. Moon seemed to have lost all his strength. He shifted his position on the recliner, his dim eyes lifeless, as if he had lost all vitality.
