And almost simultaneously, three teachers from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Device Academy rushed over...
As they stared at the scene before them, they were stunned. The only one standing, Qian Yu, was drenched in blood, while a cold, lifeless body with rolled-back eyes lay on the ground, its severed limbs and flesh mingling with the pool of blood...
One of the teachers swallowed hard and said angrily, "This student dares to kill someone in our academy!"
Another female teacher, filled with murderous intent, looked at Qian Yu as the seven soul rings at her feet slowly rose...
She said coldly, "He must be punished!"
Qian Yu slowly turned around, his icy eyes glaring firmly at the three, and said calmly, "All these people were sent by the Holy Spirit Cult!"
The male teacher's face showed confusion, but he still said coldly, "Holy Spirit Cult? No matter what cult, we're taking you in!"
The next moment, he unleashed a surge of soul power fluctuation towards Qian Yu...
However, just as he was about to make contact with Qian Yu, a sharp voice rang out, "Stop!"
Lin Jiayi was seen rushing over quickly...
The teachers all stopped their actions and said respectfully, "Director Lin..."
"Director Lin, it was this student who killed the three of them!"
Lin Jiayi nodded, looking towards Qian Yu, who was covered in blood...
His gaze then shifted to the bodies on the ground, and after sensing their lingering evil aura...
He had already guessed what had happened.
Qian Yu's icy eyes were looking at Lin Jiayi, waiting for what he would say next...
This man, he wasn't as benign as he appeared on the surface. No, it would be right to say that anyone who could reach the level of Titled Douluo had their own cunning!
Lin Jiayi placed his hand on his chest, then bowed with an apologetic face, "I apologize! Student Qian Yu, it is our academy's negligence that allowed these evil Soul Masters to slip in!"
Qian Yu said coldly, "No need to apologize. Can I leave now?"
Lin Jiayi nodded gravely, "Of course, but please do not spread word of this matter!"
After taking a deep look at Lin Jiayi, Qian Yu decisively turned and left...
After he left, the other three teachers then asked, "Director Lin, what should we do?"
"Evil Soul Masters infiltrating our academy is a serious matter; do we need to warn the students to be more careful?"
"I think we should first report it to the academy. The invasion of evil Soul Masters this time is likely a warning sign!"
Lin Jiayi pursed his lips, looking at the bodies and blood on the ground, and said, "The three of you, clean up the scene. Take care to avoid being seen by the students to prevent unnecessary panic."
"I will report this matter personally to the Hall Master. If anyone dares to leak it out..." He didn't finish his sentence, but his whole being burst forth with a terrifying oppressive force!
The other three teachers all nodded and said, "Yes, Director Lin!"
Then they began to use their soul power to cleanse the blood and deal with the bodies...
Lin Jiayi sank into deep thought...
If this incident of the evil Soul Masters infiltrating and disguising themselves within the academy were to ferment, it would cause unrest within the entire academy!
Correspondingly, as the number one Soul Guidance Device Academy in the Sun-Moon Empire, if they couldn't even guarantee the safety of their students, it would undoubtedly affect their enrollment!
This matter must be suppressed!
...
As Qian Yu walked through the academy, he immediately caught the attention of the surrounding students!
At this moment, he looked incredibly frightening, as if he had just crawled out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, instilling fear in anyone who saw him!
Yet, there were still a few reckless students who started whispering among themselves...
"This... this guy must have killed someone, right? His face is still smeared with blood!"
"Hiss... keep your voice down. That guy is terrifying. Last time he almost made dozens of us suffocate with a single glance!"
"Shush, let's not talk too much about this, and even if we must, we shouldn't say it so openly!"
Qian Yu turned his head and swept them with a cold glance, ignoring the words aimed at him…
After returning to the dormitory, Qian Yu quickly washed his face, rinsing off all the bloodstains…
Sitting on the bed, he began to recall the words of those four evil Soul Masters…
Their plan was clearly premeditated, meaning that the Holy Spirit Cult had gotten wind of his arrival at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Device Academy from Shrek Academy!
There could possibly be a mole from the Holy Spirit Cult inside Shrek Academy…
Today, three Soul Emperors and one Soul Sage came; next time, it might be a Soul Douluo or even a Title Douluo!
The situation was getting more and more troublesome…
…
Inside the Sea God's Pavilion on Sea God's Island…
Elder Mu, sitting in a wheelchair with his eyes tightly shut in rest, suddenly opened his cloudy eyes and addressed Xuan Zi, who was feasting beside him, "Xuan Zi, do you feel an ominous premonition?"
With a mouthful of chicken leg, Xuan Zi replied with a grave expression, "Hmm! It's likely aimed at Shrek Academy!"
In the past few days, he and Elder Mu had sensed more than four or five Hyper Douluos, hidden well, occasionally observing Shrek Academy!
"We must stay on high alert; the only ones who could give me such an ominous feeling are from the Holy Spirit Cult!"
Xuan Zi slowly stood up, "Shall I go and exterminate them now?"
If it weren't for Elder Mu's constant restraint, with his temperament, he would have long taken action to wipe out those evil Soul Masters.
Elder Mu shook his head, "No, even if you went, if you fell into an ambush by an evil Soul Master, chances are you couldn't escape easily, which would only put Shrek Academy in greater danger."
Xuan Zi settled back into his seat, "Hmm!"
Knocking sounds echoed, "Tat, tat, tat!"
The gaze of Elder Mu and Xuan Zi turned towards the outside of Sea God's Pavilion…
Yan Shaozhe entered with an unpleasant expression on his face, speaking, "Elder Mu, Elder Xuan!"
With furrowed brows, Elder Mu asked, "Shaozhe, you look upset; is there something important?"
Xuan Zi continued eating while waiting for Yan Shaozhe to continue…
Taking a deep breath, Yan Shaozhe slowly began, "Elder Mu, Elder Xuan, we have received information from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy. Last night, our exchange student Qian Yu was attacked by the Holy Spirit Cult within the academy. But by the time the academy's people arrived, the evil Soul Masters had already been slain by Qian Yu."
After pondering for a moment, Elder Mu's cloudy eyes flickered as he spoke, "Inside the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy? It seems Qian Yu has caught the attention of the Holy Spirit Cult!"
Xuan Zi stopped eating his chicken leg and said bluntly, "Even the most tightly guarded Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy is letting evil Soul Masters through…"
Yan Shaozhe respectfully inquired, "Elder Mu, Elder Xuan, should we bring Qian Yu back to Shrek Academy?"
Elder Mu shook his head in denial, "No need; their action this time was likely not to kill Qian Yu, but rather to invite him to join the Holy Spirit Cult."
Yan Shaozhe speculated, "Elder Mu, are you saying this is to test whether Qian Yu has ulterior motives?"
But if Qian Yu really were to join the Holy Spirit Cult, with his terrifying talent, he might become a top evil Soul Master!
Elder Mu closed his eyes and said nothing, yet his expression said it all…
Shrek Academy was now in the midst of a crisis; bringing Qian Yu back would only be more dangerous…
And if he could endure these two and a half years before returning to Shrek Academy!
By then, his strength would at least have reached the realm of Title Douluo!
At that time, Elder Mu was willing to make an exception to allow him to become a member of Sea God's Pavilion!
Seeing this, Xuan Zi beside him, took another drink and continued gnawing on the chicken leg…
