Chapter 28 Reaching Consensus
"Your teacher has already negotiated terms with Sister Changli. Sister Jingliu will help you get rid of the evil fire in your body in three days. Then you won't have to suffer from the evil fire anymore." Keqing said with a smile.

Looking at the red-haired girl in front of her who was silently drinking fish soup, Keqing couldn't help but feel admiration in her heart.

From Lu Jingming, she learned about the characteristics of the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao - it was a flame that could arouse people's primitive desires.

In order to suppress this evil fire, Ma Xiaotao's ancestor Ma Hongjun relieved his pain by constantly venting his desires at a young age. He changed girlfriends one after another, but they all chose to leave because they could not bear the strong demands caused by Ma Hongjun's evil fire.

The evil fire that Ma Xiaotao endured was even more severe than that of Ma Hongjun, and even more intense.

However, she relied on her strong willpower to carry it through.

Since her martial soul awakened, she has always remained true to herself and kept herself clean, and has never lost herself and fallen because of the desires brought by the evil fire.

In terms of this indomitable willpower alone, she far surpassed her ancestors.

It is precisely because of this that Keqing is full of affection for Ma Xiaotao.

Keqing is an extremely self-disciplined person, and she admires those who also have strong self-control.

It was for this reason that she took the initiative to come and take care of Ma Xiaotao.

After all, there is never a shortage of maids in the City Lord's Mansion, and the people of Haiyuan City are proud to send their daughters to serve in the City Lord's Mansion.

“Clang!!”

Two crisp metal collision sounds resounded throughout the training ground. The long sword in Lu Jingming's hand turned into a series of afterimages and stabbed towards Jingliu swiftly.

Each sword strike was as fast as lightning, and the sword wind was whistling as if it was going to tear the air apart.

However, Jing Liu looked calm, holding the sword in one hand, and easily took on Lu Jingming's attacks one by one.

Whenever the two swords collide, strings of dazzling sparks will splash in the air, like gorgeous fireworks blooming in the night sky.

Lu Jingming's attack was like a tide, with all kinds of exquisite sword moves appearing one after another. His figure flashed, and sword energy flowed around his body. The powerful air waves he raised were like surging waves, hitting the ground of the training ground fiercely.

Although this piece of ground, which was carefully forged with soul-guiding metal, was extremely hard, it was now scratched with shocking white marks under the ravages of the sword energy.

Although Lu Jingming used all his skills and brought all the sword skills he learned to the fullest, Jingliu was always able to cope with it with ease.

Every swing of her sword was perfect, as if integrated with the surrounding environment, and her every move revealed the demeanor of a master.

At the moment when Lu Jingming's old strength was exhausted and new strength had not yet been generated, a cold light flashed in Jingliu's eyes and the long sword in his hand stabbed out like lightning.

Lu Jingming only felt a flash of cold light in front of his eyes, and his body stiffened instantly. The tip of the sword had stopped in front of him, just a hair's breadth away from his throat.

Looking at the sword tip flashing with cold light in front of him, Lu Jingming helplessly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, but still had a playful smile on his face as he said, "As expected of Master Jingliu, your swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world! Even without using soul power, you can defeat me so easily."

"I'm not Heita. Besides, you've been slacking off lately." Jingliu didn't respond much to Lu Jingming's compliment. He just made a comment lightly with a barely perceptible harshness in his tone.

Lu Jingming smiled awkwardly after hearing this. He knew in his heart that he had been slacking off on his swordsmanship training recently, and the time he had devoted to it had obviously decreased.

But this was also a helpless move. He had many things to plan and arrange in advance and was too busy to do anything else.

Jing Liu was naturally aware of Lu Jingming's recent busy schedule. He nodded slightly and said calmly, "No matter how many plans you make, when it comes to the critical moment, you still have to rely on your own strength to speak."

Lu Jingming nodded in agreement.

He understood this principle, so he had planned to hand over the matters at hand to others and devote himself to cultivation, working hard to improve his strength.

After all, he possesses real authority and can confidently hand things over to those he absolutely trusts.

At this time, Zhang Lexuan walked forward with light steps, holding an exquisite handkerchief in her hand.

She gently wiped the beads of sweat from Lu Jingming's forehead and said softly, "Sister Changli has already talked to Dean Yan."

"Really? In that case, I'll leave it to you, teacher." When Lu Jingming heard the news, there was no surprise on his face.

He knew very well that in order to solve the problem of the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao, as long as the conditions were not too harsh and did not endanger the fundamental interests of Shrek Academy, Yan Shaozhe would most likely agree.

Since Yan Shaozhe has agreed to the conditions they proposed, it is now Jingliu's turn to take action.

Having just finished an intense sword training session, Lu Jingming was already covered in sweat.

He returned to his residence, took a comfortable shower, changed into clean clothes, and then went to the reception room with Zhang Lexuan and Jingliu.

Here, they met Yan Shaozhe again.

Seeing Lu Jingming and the others arrive, Yan Shaozhe smiled with satisfaction and said, "City Lord Lu, on behalf of Shrek Academy, I agree to the three conditions you proposed. I wonder when you will be able to exorcise the evil fire for my disciples?"

The three conditions that Chang Li negotiated with Yan Shaozhe were all within the acceptable range of Shrek Academy, and there was no exorbitant price being asked for, which made Yan Shaozhe quite satisfied.

The first condition is that Shrek Academy must provide two places for one year of training under the Golden Ancient Tree on Sea God Island.

In Shrek Academy, entering the Golden Ancient Tree on Sea God Island to practice is an extremely rare opportunity. Usually only the inner court disciples are eligible for such an opportunity, and most disciples can only practice for a few months.

However, as a member of the Sea God Pavilion and the dean of the Martial Soul Department, Yan Shaozhe holds a certain degree of decision-making power and can still meet this requirement.

Moreover, once the evil fire problem in Ma Xiaotao's body is solved, Shrek Academy will most likely be able to cultivate another leader of the Sea God Pavilion with ultimate attributes.

You know, in the history of Shrek Academy, the previous leader of the Sea God Pavilion, who possessed extreme attributes, was a legendary figure.

Four thousand years ago, when the Sun-Moon Continent and the Douluo Continent collided, and the Sun-Moon Empire invaded the Douluo Continent, and the three original Douluo Kingdoms were losing ground, he led hundreds of extremely powerful Titled Douluo and successfully defeated the powerful Sun-Moon Empire, turning the tide and pushing Shrek Academy to an unprecedented glorious height.

It was also the Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion with the ultimate attributes who forced the Sun-Moon Empire to cede territory and pay compensation, and renamed the Sun-Moon Continent to Douluo Continent.
