Chapter 20 - Chapter 20 Sowing Discord and Winning Over

Even within Shrek Academy, Bei Bei's strength was considered among the best of his peers.

However, when he took the initiative to attack, his opponent, without any martial spirit attached to him, severely injured him with the force of the physical recoil alone.

Even within Shrek Academy, very few people can possess such skill.

"Someone as weak as you dares to ask me questions?"

Xu Tianming glanced at Bei Bei, his expression still indifferent.

If it weren't for the inappropriate occasion, he could have easily slapped Beibei to death.

"you...!"

Beibei's face was contorted with bulging veins as she pointed at Xu Tianming, unable to utter a single word.

Who is Beibei?

He is the great-grandson of Mu En, the current head of the Sea God Pavilion and a Dragon God Douluo with a strength of level 99.

They also inherited the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, which mutated towards the Holy Dragon of Light, and were known as the Twin Stars of Shrek Academy's Outer Court.

From childhood to adulthood, he has always been surrounded by praise.

When have we ever been treated with such contempt?

"Hmm..."

Although the two only exchanged one move, the commotion was considerable.

With another soft moan, Tang Ya, who was lying on the ground, finally slowly opened her eyes.

"What...what's wrong with me?"

Rubbing her slightly swollen temples, Tang Ya sat up from the ground and looked around blankly.

"Beibei!"

When her gaze fell on Beibei, who was in a disheveled state, she immediately came to her senses.

"What's wrong with you... what happened to you?"

Tang Ya jogged over to Bei Bei's side, and seeing his arm bent into an irregular shape, her eyes immediately welled up with tears.

"I'm fine."

Beibei used her uninjured left hand to pull Tang Ya behind her, her eyes warily fixed on Xu Tianming not far away.

Tang Ya followed Bei Bei's gaze to Xu Tianming, and gritted her teeth, saying:

"Did he hurt you?"

"Miss Tang Ya, don't make false accusations."

Before Beibei could speak, Xu Tianming had already spoken first.

"I just sensed a powerful mental fluctuation erupting in the vicinity, so I rushed over here."

"When we arrived at the destination, we found the three of you unconscious on the spot."

"I was afraid you would encounter bad people and spirit beasts, so I stayed by your side to protect you."

At this point, Xu Tianming pointed at Beibei and said with a sneer:

"When he woke up, he accused me of doing something to you without even asking what happened, and then attacked me."

"Ask him yourself, did I lay a single finger on him?"

"Nonsense! If you didn't hurt Beibei, how did she get all these injuries?"

Tang Ya immediately glared at Xu Tianming.

"Miss Tang Ya, why don't you ask him yourself what's going on?"

Xu Tianming shrugged at Tang Ya, his face showing an innocent expression.

Tang Ya's gaze immediately fell on Bei Bei.

Beibei opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

say what?

He claimed that he initiated the attack, but the other party didn't even move, and he was injured like this simply by the force of the recoil.

Seeing that Beibei didn't speak, Tang Ya's expression immediately became strange.

It seems that what this young man from the Sun Moon Empire said is true!

The scene suddenly became somewhat awkward.

"Speaking of which, I just remembered something."

Touching his chin, Xu Tianming suddenly spoke:

"I remember that the Tang Clan was almost wiped out by a sect called the Iron Blood Sect a few years ago, right?"

"Miss Tang Ya once told Yuhao that she could give him a spot in Shrek Academy without taking the entrance exam for the Tang Sect."

"With Miss Tang Ya's surname added, Miss Tang Ya should be a member of the Tang Clan, right?"

Xu Tianming paused at this point.

"Shrek Academy and Tang Sect truly have a friendship spanning millennia. I suppose Shrek Academy has also avenged Tang Sect's great grudge?"

Upon hearing this, Beibei's expression changed drastically.

"What nonsense are you spouting!"

"What nonsense did I spout?"

Xu Tianming tilted his head, somewhat puzzled, and asked:

"Could it be that Shrek Academy didn't avenge the Tang Sect?"

Beibei gritted her teeth, glanced at Tang Ya who had already lowered her head, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

"The matter between the Tang Sect and the Iron Blood Sect is a conflict between sects."

Tang Ya kept her head down, so neither of them could see her expression, but her voice clearly reached their ears.

"I will take revenge for the Tang Clan myself; I don't need Shrek Academy's help."

"This is Miss Tang Ya!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianming immediately gave Tang Ya a thumbs up.

"However, Shrek Academy and Tang Sect have a friendship spanning ten thousand years. The founder of Tang Sect was Tang San, the Sea God, who was one of the original Seven Devils of Shrek Academy."

"It's unbelievable that Shrek Academy would just sit idly by and watch this once number one sect on the continent be destroyed. It's rather heartless."

Xu Tianming sighed softly.

Stop trying to sow discord!

If Beibei weren't outmatched by Xu Tianming, she would have attacked him the moment he started speaking.

"Although Shrek Academy is the number one academy on the continent, adhering to neutrality is our consistent stance."

"The conflict between the Tang Sect and the Iron Blood Sect is a conflict between two sects. What right does Shrek Academy have to intervene?"

Unbeknownst to Beibei, Tang Ya's body trembled slightly as soon as he said those words.

Smack! Smack! Smack!

"Hey, Shrek Academy, what a steadfastly neutral institution."

Xu Tianming couldn't help but applaud Bei Bei.

Damn it, Shrek Academy only produces these hypocritical monsters who spout righteousness all the time!

"What about the national war between the Sun Moon Empire and the Heavenly Dou and Star Luo Empires back then?"

Xu Tianming said with a half-smile:

"Back then, during the war between the three kingdoms, your Shrek Academy gathered more than twenty titled Douluo to assist the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires in fighting against us."

"Why didn't you say you were neutral back then?"

Beibei snorted and said coldly:

"Your Sun Moon Empire is committing aggression, and of course our Shrek Academy must stand on the side of justice to fight against you!"

"What a load of bull!"

Xu Tianming spat fiercely onto the ground, his tone gradually becoming more impassioned.

"The world, after a long period of unity, tends to divide; after a long period of division, tends to unite."

"Our Sun Moon Empire aims to unify the entire continent, so that all people on the continent will no longer have to distinguish between countries."

"That will be a world without war, where soul-guided technology develops rapidly."

"How could your small academy possibly comprehend such a grand vision?"

For a moment, Bei Bei was overwhelmed by Xu Tianming's imposing manner and didn't know how to refute him.

"Miss Tang Ya, I have also studied the hidden weapons of the Tang Clan and found that they have unlimited potential."

Seeing that Beibei had stopped talking, Xu Tianming's gaze fell on Tang Ya.

"If you are willing, you can also come to our Sun Moon Empire for development in the future."

At this point, Xu Tianming suddenly smiled.

"We are not Shrek Academy, but we are still very friendly to our friends."

"At that time, we can help you make the Iron Blood Sect or any other sect that has ever harmed you disappear from this world completely."
