Douluo Continent: I can nurture soul beasts and even perform super evolution.

Chapter 14 The Sea God Pavilion Meeting: A Punishment Specifically for the Gluttonous Divine Ox Martial Soul
"This child must be Su Wen. He has the potential to be included in my Soul Guidance Department." A beautiful woman with a single ponytail, a tall figure, and a neat and capable demeanor looked at Su Wen with shining eyes.

"Hmph, what a load of rubbish. This kid's martial soul is the Soul Beast Commander, what does it have to do with your Soul Guidance Department..." Another man, with a scholarly air, short hair that was half white, but full of energy, chuckled as he looked at the middle-aged man who looked to be about forty or fifty years old.

The huge conference hall only had these four people... no seats.

It's highly likely that it's Xian Lin'er and Yan Shaozhe.

There was also the fat man next to Xian Lin'er, wearing glasses, his squinting eyes gleaming with a cunning light, but when he saw Su Wen casting his gaze, he quickly put on a silly smile.

Qian Duoduo, Shrek Academy's number one Soul Master.

Standing beside Yan Shaozhe was a gentle and beautiful woman who gave Su Wen a sweet smile. This must be Cai Meier, the vice dean of the Martial Soul Department.

Whenever Cai Meier is mentioned, Su Wen wants to complain.

He was completely different from Elder Xuan.

In the original novel, both of them led teams into the Star Dou Great Forest once.

Both faced a crisis (the three Zhongli brothers, evil soul masters), but the results were worlds apart. Although the latter's team had three overpowered members (Huo Qiudong), it is undeniable that Cai Meier took meticulous care of the team throughout, like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

Honestly, for this 100,000-year soul beast calamity, he would have preferred Cai Meier to lead the team rather than Xuanzi, even though the vice dean's strength was only that of an ordinary Title Douluo...

Is it the same whether there is a teacher leading the team or not?

However, it's clear that Shrek Academy is generally reliable, except for that one guy surnamed Xuan.

Seriously, I'm not afraid of the Sun Moon Empire racking its brains, I'm afraid of our Chicken Leg Elder coming up with a brilliant idea...

"Okay, don't argue anymore."

Old Mu was pushed to the front in his golden wooden wheelchair by Su Wen, and his hunched body straightened up slightly.

"Which college Xiao Wen joins in the future is his own business. There are still at least five or six years until then, so what's the rush..."

"Yes, Mr. Mu."

The two immediately stopped, but they still secretly stared at Su Wen and "smirked".

Clearly, they were both aware of each other's character. If they didn't act soon, Su Wen might be completely infatuated with the other party by six years later!

Old Mu shook his head and ignored him.

Su Wen remained expressionless.

When two deans are vying for power, they should at least show some sincerity, right?
He only needs to sit back and enjoy the resources provided by the two deans. As for which academy to join... of course, it's the Martial Soul Department. If this were the Sun Moon Empire, he might hesitate, but this is Shrek Academy!
The difference in soul guidance level between him and the Sun Moon Empire is like a hundred thousand miles. What would he do if he went to the soul guidance department? Just to eat dirt?
After all, although the Soul Guidance Department has Elder Mu's support, its resources, teaching standards, and teacher quality are far inferior to those of the Martial Soul Department, and it is even being beaten down.

The current Martial Soul system has inherited the honor of tens of thousands of years. Although it is somewhat bloated internally and its foundation is somewhat corrupt, it is undeniable that it is still extremely rich. Even a single hair plucked from it is much thicker than that of the Soul Guidance system.

"The main point of today's discussion is what happened a month ago when Xuanzi led a team to the Star Dou Great Forest and encountered a 100,000-year-old soul beast..."

Mu En's eyes slowly sharpened, staring intently at Xuan Zi like an eagle.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became heavy.

All the elders looked at Xuanzi, their gazes filled with helplessness, regret, and anger at his lack of ambition.

"Elder Mu, everyone, I want to resign from my positions as Vice Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion and Vice Head of the Supervisory Group. I am a sinner of the academy, and I am not worthy to stay in the academy..." Xuanzi hung his head, as if he were carrying a heavy mountain on his shoulders, which made his back bend even more.

As he spoke, Xuanzi slowly stood up, and under everyone's gaze, took out a badge from his pocket, gently wiped it, and placed it on the table.

"Elder Xuan, this isn't your fault! It's all... cough cough, everyone makes mistakes sometimes, especially since this time, thanks to Xiao Wen's heroic efforts, no one in our academy died, and the seriously injured were quickly treated. Elder Zhuang said they're fine and it won't affect their future cultivation." Yan Shaozhe said sincerely, but halfway through his sentence, he realized that no one could take the blame, but fortunately, he managed to smooth things over.

"Yes, Elder Xuan, you are a pillar of the academy. If you leave, what will happen if enemies attack from the outside? Besides, although this mission was dangerous, the result was good. We should focus on rewards, not punishments..."

On this matter, Xian Lin'er and Yan Shaozhe reached a rare consensus.

What they said was sincere.

Nonsense! Elder Xuan is gone. If Elder Mu gets into trouble, who will carry the Shrek Academy banner?
"I can't handle this!" Mu En said calmly, but everyone present felt an invisible pressure. "Xuanzi, are you throwing a tantrum at me? Are you quitting?"

"Elder Mu, you know I'm not like that..." Xuanzi said bitterly.

"So you mean I wronged you?" Moon said softly.

“No, I…” Xuanzi opened his mouth.

"Then get back to work and get back to your job!" Moon suddenly roared.

“Be a man, take some responsibility! You think about running away when something goes wrong? Believe me, even though I’m not as strong as I used to be, I can still beat you up like a spinning top!” Mu En slammed his hand on the table.

"You have to clean up your own mess."

"Also... you should thank Su Wen properly." Mu En's tone softened as he said, "He saved you this time. If it weren't for Xiao Wen holding back that Bloodthirsty Demon Tiger at the crucial moment, hmph, you'd be paying with your death."

"Yes!"

A smile forced onto Xuanzi's bitter face.

He nodded apologetically to Su Wen.

Su Wen smiled and nodded.

In his heart, however, he thought to himself: "Little brat, I'll keep you in check for life..."

Seeing this, many of the elders cast curious glances at Su Wen.

His gaze softened, as if he were looking at a descendant of his own bloodline.

Resilience, decisiveness, and composure under pressure—aren't these all desirable qualities that a leader should possess?

The chosen master of the Sea God Pavilion!

“Xuanzi, you have made a mistake, and the academy should punish you. You are not allowed to lead teams outside for ten years, and your salary for the next ten years will be waived to compensate these children. The academy will also provide additional subsidies, giving each seriously injured child a ten-thousand-year soul bone and each slightly injured child two million gold soul coins.”

“If you want to make money, go to the Star Dou Great Forest and help people hunt soul beasts. Also… this time, because of your eating, you almost caused the entire group of children to be wiped out. So, I’ll punish you by confinement and starvation for three months,” Mu En said slowly.

"This..." Yan Shaozhe was taken aback.

I didn't expect the teacher to actually get serious?

Even Su Wen was somewhat surprised.

As for wages and money, they were all external things to Xuanzi. As long as he asked, people would rush to give him money. He was not allowed to go out and lead teams, but that didn't bother him. Just when he thought that Elder Mu was as he expected, the board was raised high but fell lightly.

Then came the line, "I'd be starving for three months."

Three months is certainly not enough to starve a level 98 Super Douluo to death.

However, Xuanzi's martial soul is the Gluttonous Divine Ox. The more he eats, the faster his soul power increases. Conversely, the less he eats, or even not eating at all, is nothing short of torture for him.

This kind of torment is no different from the process of drug addicts going through withdrawal.

Three months' time.

It was enough to make Xuanzi wish he were dead.

The ultimate torture unique to the Taotie Divine Ox Martial Soul.

"it is good……"

Xuanzi breathed a sigh of relief.
