Rosen smiled upon hearing this:"Dean, you don't need to get so worked up, we've already decided, I only came over to let you know, not to ask for your approval, we want to quickly improve our strength, and go out to make our way in the world while we're still young, otherwise how would we ever have the chance to reach the pinnacle of the world?"
Flender was suddenly stunned upon hearing this, not expecting Rosen to have already made this plan long ago, it seemed that no matter how much he tried to persuade them it would be useless, but he simply didn't want to watch these geniuses die young!
"Rosen, I know you're all geniuses, and your strength is indeed outstanding, but you're simply too young!Going to Slaughter City at this time is practically a nine-in-ten chance of death!I can't just stand by and watch you jump into a fire pit!"
Flender naturally knew very well what kind of place Slaughter City was, even he himself didn't have the courage to go to Slaughter City, so how could he let these little fellows take the risk!
"Dean, we've already decided, and we won't change our minds, what we hope to receive is your support!"Rosen said with a smile.
Flender fell silent for a long time upon hearing this, then sighed and said:"Alright, it seems I still underestimated you little fellows too much, since you've made up your minds, I'll give you my full support, I have a map of Slaughter City in my collection as well as books containing related records, and I'll also give you some extra money for support, perhaps it might still come in handy at a critical moment."
Flender handed Rosen an exquisite storage bracelet, this was a soul tool of even better quality than Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges, with even more storage space!
"Thank you for your support, Dean!Don't worry, we'll definitely come back safe and sound!"Rosen said with a smile.
Flender nodded upon hearing this:"I hope all seven of you come back safe and sound, when the time comes I'll arrange a grand victory celebration party for you!"
"Then it's a deal!"
Rosen smiled and high-fived Flender to seal the agreement, and only then left the office.
After Rosen left, Flender suddenly felt somewhat melancholy, because these were all genius students he had personally nurtured, and also the group of students he had poured the most effort into over these years, he truly didn't want any of them to encounter danger.
But if he didn't let go and allow them to spread their wings and soar, how could they ever become true eagles?
...
Early the next morning, the seven from Shrek Academy left the academy together, setting out in the direction of Slaughter City!
Watching everyone's spirited backs, the corners of Zhao Wuji's eyes grew somewhat moist.
"Dean, can the children really return safely?"
"Of course!Do you even need to think about that!These are the little monsters we trained ourselves!Ordinary people face a nine-in-ten chance of death in Slaughter City, but these little monsters will definitely come back alive and well!"
"Flender, these children were all nurtured by you with countless amounts of painstaking effort, are you really so at ease letting them go to that place?"
"Erlong, we were young once too, back then our strength wasn't even as good as theirs, and didn't we still make quite a name for ourselves?Just wait and see, these little fellows will definitely become towering giants who make the entire world tremble!"
A happy smile hung on Flender's face, there was no way he would cry until his eyes were red like Zhao Wuji and the others, because he had already cried last night!
...
News that Rosen and the others had left Shrek Academy quickly reached the ears of Xue Qinghe, the eldest prince of the Heaven Dou Empire.
"Your Highness, Rosen's group of seven has left Shrek Academy, they just passed through the imperial capital's city gates, they're heading north all the way, this subordinate is not clear where their destination is."
Xue Qinghe nodded upon hearing this:"Investigate further."
"As you command!"
The subordinate responsible for gathering information immediately disappeared.
And at this moment, two middle-aged men appeared in the great hall.
"Your Highness, that soul beast has already left the imperial capital, shouldn't we make our move now?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo had remained by the eldest prince's side all along, only others were unaware that the eldest prince had this kind of relationship with Spirit Hall.
"We still can't make a move now, first investigate their movements clearly before we decide."Xue Qinghe was expressionless, and did not show any apprehension because of Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo's status as Titled Douluo.
On the contrary, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo were extremely respectful toward Xue Qinghe, and followed all of the other party's commands.
"Her Holiness the Pope told us to follow your orders, right now should be the best opportunity to make a move, why must we continue waiting?"
Ghost Douluo couldn't help asking, after all, he and Chrysanthemum Douluo had already stayed here for several months, bored and idle every day, and really wanted to find something to do.
"When it's time to make a move, I'll naturally have you make a move, although a hundred-thousand-year soul beast is precious, compared to my plan it doesn't amount to much, right now you only need to keep a close eye on that soul beast, and absolutely must not act rashly!"
Xue Qinghe was actually a hidden piece planted by Spirit Hall within the Heaven Dou Empire, her true identity was the daughter of Spirit Hall's Pope Bibi Dong, she had been impersonating the eldest prince Xue Qinghe for many years already, and now nothing was more important to her than the throne!
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo could only hold their positions, what they needed to do now was first figure out the purpose behind Rosen and the others leaving Shrek Academy!
...
Heading north all the way, more than a month later, Rosen's group of seven finally left the border of the Heaven Dou Empire and entered the frigid lands of the far north.
The environment here was harsh and sparsely populated, sometimes they might only see a single household after walking for two or three days.
"Rosen, we've been out for so long already, why haven't the people from Spirit Hall made any moves at all?Could it be they don't know we've left Shrek Academy?Or have they already given up on their plan to capture Xiao Wu?"Oscar asked curiously.
"Previously, while we were within the Heaven Dou Empire, it wasn't convenient for the people from Spirit Hall to make a move, but now that we've left the Heaven Dou Empire, it's hard to say what will happen, I estimate Spirit Hall's assassins are already on the way, we need to be especially careful these next few days!"
Rosen had always been very cautious, after all, anything could happen while away from home, caution keeps the ship sailing for ten thousand years!
On the sixth day after everyone left the border of the Heaven Dou Empire, Rosen sensed two powerful auras!
"Everyone be careful!Powerful enemies are approaching!They feel like they're at least Soul Douluo level or above!"Rosen warned.
"What!Spirit Hall sent Soul Douluo to hunt us down!How are we supposed to withstand that?Let's speed up and hurry up and run!"Ma Hongjun immediately chickened out upon hearing this, feeling that it would be better to flee for their lives first at a time like this!
Rosen smiled at this moment and said:"It's not easy to run into two experts, how can we just run away so easily, let's exchange a few moves with them first, and if we can't beat them then we'll run!"
"Brother Sen, you really want to exchange moves with them?"Ma Hongjun was utterly shocked, thinking this was truly like an old birthday star hanging himself because he thought he'd lived too long!
Just then, a sinister wind howled past, and two unfamiliar figures appeared before everyone.
"Heh hahaha, you little fellows sure can run fast!We've been chasing you for so many days before finally catching up!Now there's nowhere left to run, right!"Ghost Douluo laughed sinisterly.
