Chapter 150 Xuanzi: There is no one here who can withstand even a single blow from me.
Xuanzi's hoarse voice uttered the words "I admit defeat," and the entire Xingluo Square fell into a deathly silence.
The expressions of hundreds of thousands of spectators froze on their faces. Some people dropped their flags, some opened their mouths but couldn't make a sound, and many more wore expressions of disbelief.
Shrek Academy...lost?
Shrek Academy, the number one academy on the continent that has produced countless powerful soul masters, has actually admitted defeat in front of everyone?!
Whoosh!!!
After a brief silence, a tsunami-like uproar swept through the entire venue.
Even though the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy had shown unprecedented strength, many viewers did not believe that Shrek Academy would lose.
Now, with Xuanzi's surrender, Shrek Academy's championship, which it had held for thousands of years, has changed hands!
Faced with Shrek Academy's defeat, many viewers were unwilling to accept this fact, feeling a sense of collapse of their beliefs.
Xuanzi placed Ma Xiaotao in the rest area, and everyone gathered around.
Beibei retorted unwillingly, "Elder Xuan, why admit defeat? We can fight again!"
Xuanzi glared at him: "You can fight again? You can fight again, but can you win?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone lowered their heads as Xuanzi's gaze swept over them.
They all knew the outcome; they couldn't win.
"snort!"
Xuanzi snorted coldly: "Take good care of Xiaotao."
Huang Jinxu, acting as the referee, officially announced that the champion of this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament was the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.
Kong Xuan and his classmates received a warm welcome from their classmates and teachers as they returned to the rest area from the ring.
For thousands of years, their wish had finally come true at this moment, and cheers erupted everywhere, with some even weeping with joy.
Kong Xuan looked at his brother-in-law, Xiao Hongchen, and said, "I have fulfilled my promise."
Xiao Hongchen was taken aback upon hearing this, and then recalled the scene when the two first met several years ago.
Kong Xuan had confidently declared that he could help the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy defeat Shrek Academy and fulfill the long-cherished wish of the Sun Moon Empire.
At first, he thought it was just Kong Xuan's arrogance, just his ignorant boasting.
Now that all of this has actually come true, Xiao Hongchen feels somewhat unreal.
Just as everyone at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was cheering and celebrating, no one expected that Xuanzi, who had just admitted defeat, would suddenly make a move.
"Buzz..."
The air crackled as if violently torn apart, and as Xuanzi extended his hand, a large hand formed from earthen-yellow soul power descended from the sky.
Ren Jun, who was in the crowd, had no time to react before his body was grabbed by a large hand of soul power and he was pulled out like a rag doll.
Even though Ren Jun was an eight-ring Soul Douluo, he was still powerless against Xuan Zi.
Having been informed by Wang Yan, Ren Jun knew that Xuanzi did not intend to let him return to the Sun Moon Empire.
However, he really didn't expect that Xuanzi would actually make a move in front of everyone.
Seeing this scene, Xingluo Square fell into an eerie silence once again.
No one understood what had happened, but that didn't stop their gossip-loving hearts from burning brightly, and they adopted a spectator-like attitude.
They speculated that something big was about to happen, perhaps even more exciting than the previous matches.
Although Ren Jun was born in Shrek Academy, he has been a teacher at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy for many years and has always been dedicated to his work. Ma Sheng also considers him one of his own.
"You dare!"
Ma Sheng roared and soared into the sky. With a metallic scraping sound, more than a dozen soul tools appeared on his body in an instant, among which the ones he carried on his shoulders were all level nine fixed soul cannons!
Despite knowing he was no match for his opponent, Ma Sheng naturally had to step forward when Xuanzi suddenly attacked Ren Jun of their academy.
He was not like Huang Jinxu, who had a fiery temper; he would not swallow his anger even if he died in battle.
Xuanzi looked around and had only one thought in his mind: "There is no one here who can defeat me!"
Possessing an absolute advantage in strength is why Xuanzi dares to act so casually.
He could dominate everything, so naturally he had no worries.
He glanced at Ma Sheng's soul tools with disdain and said loudly, "This person is the team leader of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. The reserve team members they are participating in this competition are all his students."
All eyes fell on Xuanzi and Renjun in mid-air, filled with doubt, wondering why Xuanzi was suddenly saying all this.
Xuanzi pointed at Ren Jun and said, "And he... used to be a student at Shrek Academy, and even served as a teacher there!"
As soon as Xuanzi finished speaking, everyone's expressions instantly became interesting; they hadn't expected there to be such a "story" behind it.
Their urge to confide in each other suddenly intensified, and they couldn't help but start discussing quietly with those around them.
"The teachers at Sun Moon Academy and the Royal Soul Master Academy were actually trained by Shrek Academy?"
"Studied at Shrek Academy, but ended up betraying the Sun Moon Empire. What a traitor!"
"So, the reserve team of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was also trained by Shrek Academy?"
"What is this? Shrek defeated Shrek?"
...
For a time, Xingluo Square was filled with various opinions and discussions.
Those who did not understand the inside story mostly regarded Ren Jun as a traitor to Shrek Academy.
Moreover, many of the audience members were die-hard fans of Shrek Academy. Now that Xuanzi had offered such an excuse, these people naturally began to make excuses for Shrek Academy's failure this time.
Xuanzi listened to everyone's words. Although his face remained calm, he was secretly overjoyed, thinking to himself how clever he was.
In this way, the academy managed to save some face.
The students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy were filled with righteous indignation and secretly cursed Xuanzi for being shameless.
As the leader of the team, the titled Douluo Ma Sheng cursed, "Shrek is shameless! Do you dare to tell me why Teacher Ren left Shrek Academy?"
Xuanzi snorted coldly, "There's no point in saying more. It's a fact that Ren Jun betrayed the academy and the country. Now that I've run into him, I will naturally bring him back to the academy to atone for his sins and reflect on his actions."
A smart person could already tell from his words that there was probably more to the story.
Ren Jun was bound by Xuanzi, and his face became ferocious from the exertion.
But he still couldn't break free, and he couldn't even utter a single word.
At that moment, a voice suddenly rang out across Xingluo Square, causing Xuanzi's expression to change.
"This senior from Shrek Academy, you caused Teacher Ren to lose his right leg, and afterwards Shrek Academy completely ignored him. It's truly disheartening!"
"Teacher Ren joined the Sun Moon Empire when he was disheartened."
When there is trouble, disciples should do their work. Ren Jun was controlled by Xuanzi, so Kong Xuan, as a student, naturally had to speak up for his teacher!
He also thoughtfully used a megaphone to ensure that the hundreds of thousands of people present could hear it clearly.
Upon hearing this, everyone was initially surprised by the reason, and then they all began to murmur among themselves.
Xuanzi unleashed his full power, and the might of a level 98 Super Douluo swept across the entire Star Luo Square.
Everyone felt a gust of wind sweep by, and their voices fell silent in fear.
"As a Soul Master, how can you avoid getting injured?"
"Besides, the missions carried out at the academy are all voluntary participations by the students in order to maintain peace on the mainland."
"We can't enjoy all the generous benefits the academy provides on a regular basis, and then harbor resentment and betray the academy just because we suffer some setbacks."
Xuanzi's words sounded grand and dignified, but Ren Jun, standing beside him, felt his hatred intensify as he looked at Xuanzi's nonchalant demeanor.
The last shred of guilt the academy felt towards the school had vanished in the face of Xuanzi's words.
