Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 92 Yan Shaozhe’s “Suggestion”

After the great battle, Xuanzi kept the seven victorious people and let the rest leave first.

Dai Huabin looked at Yuwen Tuo and Huo Yuhao with hatred. After all, he was Dai Yueheng's younger brother, and he knew the significance of this selection. It was not as simple as selecting the top seven to complete a task, but the reserve for the next Shrek Seven Devils.

His elder brother passed such an assessment and became a candidate for the Shrek Seven Devils. He has always wanted to surpass his brother so that he can win the right to inherit the family in the future.

But now, everything has disappeared because of these two people.

Once the news of his consecutive failures in the freshman competition and the core disciple assessment spreads back to the family, the elders in the family will definitely no longer support him.

Yuwen Tuo didn't care about Dai Huabin's hatred at all. It was none of his business. If he came to seek revenge, he would just kill him with a single blow.

Huo Yuhao's eyes were filled with satisfaction. "Dai Huabin, this is just the beginning. Everything you did for my mother, I will repay you bit by bit!"

"You guys, follow me." Xuanzi led everyone towards the gate of the academy.

That is where the statue of the original Shrek Seven Devils is located.

Xuan Zi told them the history of the Shrek Seven Devils.

"The original Shrek Seven Devils laid the foundation for our school. To express our gratitude for their contributions to Shrek, we select a new group of Shrek Seven Devils every five years. They will represent the school in the Continental Advanced Soul Master School Soul Fighting Competition, which takes place every five years."

In the past, the name of the competition was the Elite Competition. It has now been changed to the Fighting Soul Competition because of the emergence of soul guides. Compared with ten thousand years ago, this event has been very different in both rules and playing methods.

"Although the continent is peaceful now, our school has always believed that this is the calm before the storm. Although the Sun-Moon Empire was defeated by our school and the three major empires, their ambitions have never been extinguished. Sooner or later, they will inevitably make a comeback, and the Fighting Spirit Competition is where they will test the strength of our Douluo Continent."

"So, you must not underestimate the Soul Fighting Competition. If we lose and the Sun-Moon Empire takes the championship, it will likely further inflate their ambitions and bring about the continental war even sooner."

What Xuan Zi said was a bit alarmist, but it did make some sense.

"Master Xuan, you have told us so much. Do you want us to participate in this fighting spirit competition with the Shrek Seven Devils?" Xu Sanshi asked excitedly.

Xuan Zi nodded, "Not with the Seven Devils, but you, now the Seven Devils. This core disciple selection is actually to select the reserve of the Shrek Seven Devils."

Upon hearing this, everyone except Yuwen Tuo showed an expression of great excitement.

After all, becoming one of the Shrek Seven Devils is the dream of all Shrek students.

Although Xiao Xiao was dissatisfied with the academy because of its behavior towards Yuwen Tuo, she had grown up admiring the Shrek Seven Devils. It would be nice to be a temporary Seven Devils before leaving the academy with Yuwen Tuo in the future.

"Don't get too excited yet. I have one more thing to tell you. Your becoming a reserve member is a secret of the academy and must not be leaked. Otherwise, your Seven Monsters qualification will be permanently revoked." Xuan Zi warned.

"Yes!" "Okay, let's disband. From now on, you will follow me to practice. There is still about a month before this Soul Fighting Competition. I will take you to practice with the Seven Monsters of the Contemporary Era. I hope you will seize this rare opportunity and improve your strength as much as possible." After Xuan Zi warned everyone, he announced the disbandment.

Just as everyone was dispersing and he was about to leave, Yan Shaozhe suddenly approached him.

"Shaozhe, what do you want to talk to me about?" Xuanzi asked.

"Master Xuan, I know you will train these children yourself. The rest of them are fine, but there is one guy among them."

"You want to talk about Yuwen Tuo, right? I noticed it just now. When I mentioned that they were about to become the Shrek Seven Devils, the excitement of the others could not be faked, but he was the only one who was as calm as a pool of stagnant water. He didn't want to be one of the Shrek Seven Devils at all, and he even disdained to be one." After all, Xuan Zi was also a smart man of over 150 years old. How could he not see what Yan Shaozhe could see?

"Then Master Xuan, what do you mean?"

Xuan Zi shook his head. "Actually, I don't know what to do. Although Yuwen Tuo has no feelings for Shrek, he saved Xiao Tao and his kindness to Shrek is real. Moreover, he defeated all his opponents fair and square to become one of the Shrek Seven Devils. No matter from which aspect, the academy should allocate the resources he deserves to him."

"Master Xuan, I understand. Since Yuwen Tuo has earned these with his own strength, I naturally have no intention of withholding them. However, I know that you will grant them an identity soon. From what I know about Yuwen Tuo, he will most likely refuse and choose to go it alone. I think that as teachers, if the children are in danger, it is more important for us to protect our own family members first. Master Xuan, I don't think you want what happened back then to happen again." Yan Shaozhe said, "Although I don't want to, the Shrek Seven Devils are the most important team of Shrek Academy. Yuwen Tuo is really an unstable factor."

Xuan Zi paused while drinking, he knew what Yan Shaozhe was talking about.

Back then, twelve inner court disciples were separated from their master in the Star Dou Great Forest and encountered a hundred-thousand-year-old spirit beast. Of the twelve supreme geniuses, only four remained.

And the teacher who led the team that time was him! Eight out of twelve people died in the battle. It was the most tragic event in Shrek's history. He really couldn't escape the blame.

"Shaozhe, I understand what you mean, but if I have to ensure the safety of the other students, I will still at least try to save his life. After all, we Shrek owe him!" Xuanzi sighed to the sky.

He had already understood the implication of Yan Shaozhe's words.

It's a bit cruel, but it's true. The Shrek Seven Devils have always been the most important organization in the academy, and no unstable factors can appear.

In order to consider the overall situation, sometimes we really have to sacrifice our own interests.

As for the sins, let him bear them. He is already covered with sins, so he is not afraid of bearing more.

The next day, the rigorous training officially began.

But
"Yuwen Tuo, you don't have to participate in any of my training. Just practice on your own." Xuan Zi said as soon as he came up.

Xiao Xiao was immediately dissatisfied. "Master Xuan, what do you mean? Tuotuo is also a member of the Shrek Seven Devils. Why are you unwilling to teach him?"
