Douluo: The Thousand-Faced Angel in Dragon King

Chapter 34: Yali contributes and the conflict is resolved

Xu Lizhi grabbed Qian Mo's hand and whispered with a worried look on his face, "Brother Qian Mo, the place in the inner courtyard was hard-earned. You can't just give up on all your previous efforts!"

Qian Mo, however, threw Xu Lizhi to the ground, suppressing his anger and saying, "Then treat him as a dog feed. Get out of the way!"

Cai Yue'er pointed at Qian Mo's back, seething with rage, and shouted, "Get out of here! You're from a small town, and yet you're so arrogant! Do you really think Shrek Academy wants to recruit you? Let me tell you, Shrek Academy is full of geniuses, many who are better than you."

Qian Mo paused, and Yali secretly said, "Oh no!"
"Okay, okay!" Qian Mo turned around slowly, his face expressionless, but the extremely low air pressure around him indicated that this was the calm before the storm.

"He's not in the right to begin with, and yet he's still attacking in this unfavorable situation. I've never seen anything like this before."

Qian Mo's aura began to rise steadily, his tone became deeper and deeper, and the signs of a violent storm were already emerging!
"Since you said that Shrek Academy is much stronger than me, then let's draw a line and compete. Let me see the genius of Shrek Academy."

Yali's right eyelid began to twitch wildly, and alarm bells rang in her heart. The situation seemed to be about to explode completely, and even eight bulls couldn't pull it back.

Lan Muzi quickly closed the door to ensure that no sound would be heard.

Qian Mo raised his finger provocatively towards Cai Yue'er and said coldly, "Give you nine years old in Shrek Academy, no, twelve years old! I have always been broad-minded and repay evil with kindness, so I will give you three years old."

"Let any students under the age of twelve from your academy come and compete with me. Actual combat, second careers are all fine, I will accept anyone."

"Whether it's about winning or losing, life or death, it doesn't matter!"

A storm descended from the sky. Qian Mo pointed at Cai Yue'er and said word by word, "As long as there is one person who can defeat me, I will walk out of Shrek City on my knees, and you can do whatever you want to me. If no one can defeat me, I will remove the sign of your first academy on the continent!"

"Do you dare to accept this bet?"

As soon as Qian Mo finished speaking, a loud thunder sounded from the sky, inexplicably scaring everyone.

Gu Yuena pursed her lips tightly, stood beside Qian Mo with a firm look in her eyes, supporting him.

Cai Yue'er's fists creaked as she stared at Qian Mo. If looks could kill, then Qian Mo would be cut into pieces at worst.

But even though her eyes were red enough to spit fire, Cai Yue'er still did not respond to the bet.

With Yali's comfort, her anger had mostly subsided and rationality took over, so she understood that she was in a dilemma.

Based on Cai Yue'er's understanding of her own students, since Qian Mo could even defeat Huo Yuhao, who was at level 35, there was no twelve-year-old student in the academy who could possibly defeat Qian Mo.

A real-world battle wasn't feasible, but as for a second profession, Qian Mo was a disciple of the Divine Craftsman, his talent in forging second to none. Even though he was only nine years old, it was hard to say what level of forging he had reached, and Shrek Academy wasn't sure of victory.

The bet cannot be accepted, but if Cai Yue'er does not dare to accept Qian Mo's bet, and word gets out that the mighty Shrek Academy does not even dare to accept the challenge of a nine-year-old child, how can they dare to say that their academy is full of geniuses? The reputation of Shrek Academy will be ruined!
The situation was temporarily deadlocked. Simply put, it was a deadlock that belonged only to Cai Yue'er.

"What's the matter, old woman with a needle eye? Shrek Academy, known as the best academy on the continent, doesn't even dare to respond to a nine-year-old kid like me?" Qian Mo stared at Cai Yue'er intently, his tone aggressive, continuing to put pressure on her. At this moment, Yali spoke up to break the deadlock, saying in a serious tone, "Yue'er, go down first and return to the Sea God Pavilion!"

Cai Yue'er suddenly became anxious, "Sister Yali, I..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Yali in a stern voice, "Go back to Poseidon Pavilion. You are not allowed to leave Poseidon Island without my permission! Don't make me say it again!"

At this moment, Yali changed from her usual gentleness and dignity, and her tone was unquestionable and hinted at anger.

Cai Yue'er was frightened by Yali's behavior. She could only stand up dejectedly, glared at Qian Mo, and left the room.

Yali took a deep breath and said calmly, "Qianmo, let's calm down first. Anger won't solve any problems."

"Yue'er was at fault in this matter. I apologize to you on her behalf. Yue'er was unfair in this assessment. I order her to return to the Sea God Pavilion for self-reflection and revoke her eligibility to preside over the assessment. The academy will also provide you and Gu Yuena with sufficient compensation and exempt you from future assessments. You will enter the inner courtyard directly with the highest treatment. How do you do that?"

Yali spoke and made a direct decision, putting the blame entirely on Cai Yue'er, extinguishing Qian Mo's anger.

At the same time, the dispute that had gradually expanded to the college level was brought back to the starting point, because the conflict caused by Cai Yue'er's unfair judgment was controlled within a range that she could handle.

Finally, offering compensation was not a problem for Shrek Academy. As for exempting them from the entrance exam, Qian Mo and Gu Yuena were already qualified for the inner courtyard with their talents, so exempting them from the exam was just a matter of course.

Lan Muzi also hurriedly introduced: "This is the deputy head of the Sea God Pavilion, Holy Spirit Douluo Teacher Yali. She can make the above decision on behalf of the academy."

The anger on Qian Mo's face gradually faded. He now realized that what he had just done was indeed inappropriate. Escalating the conflict to Shrek Academy and offending and angering Shrek Academy was not good for him or the forces behind him.

After all, Shrek Academy not only has the strongest person on the continent, but its graduates are also spread all over the continent and hold high positions. Many senior officers of the Southern Legion come from Shrek Academy.

If Shrek Academy had just started, even if Le Zhengen was a quasi-god, the Southern Legion and the Holy Angel Family would have suffered heavy losses.

So Qian Mo waved his hand and followed Yali's wishes to naturally reveal the bet.

"Okay, I accept your apology, but forget about the compensation. I don't want to go into the inner courtyard anymore. There's no way I can stay in the same place with that old woman with a needle eye."

Zhuo Shi, who had been silent for a long time, now said slowly, "Kid, don't follow that old Cai Yue'er's lead and drag your feud with Cai Yue'er into the inner courtyard, okay?"

"You came to the inner courtyard to learn better and enjoy better resources. Are you going to give up all that just for Cai Yue'er? Isn't it a bit unworthy? In everything, profit comes first!"

Qian Mo fell into deep thought upon hearing this. Zhuo Shi's words did make sense. Was he really going to give up the resources that were within his reach just for a pinprickly old woman? The divine mask spirit was crying out for food!

Seeing Qian Mo's hesitation, Yali quickly added, "Child, I can assure you that your feud with Yue'er will never affect your studies at Shrek Academy, and our academy will not interfere with your feud with Yue'er. How about you resolve it yourselves?"
