Xuanzi's eyes gradually turned cold, and a surge of anger welled up from the bottom of his heart.
If it weren't for Lin Feng, Elder Mu wouldn't have died.
But he never considered that the reason Mu En died of anger was ultimately due to Xuan Zi's own actions.
When people are angry, they often don't reflect on their own mistakes, but instead habitually shift the blame to others.
At this moment, looking at Lin Feng's calm and composed face, Xuanzi felt as if he were meeting his enemy, and his eyes were filled with hatred.
But he didn't lash out immediately because he knew that his most important task right now was to win the prize in this competition.
Xuanzi shifted his gaze from Lin Feng to the list of the bottom ten on the light screen.
He had observed Zhao Chen's battle.
In that Five Extremes Grand Competition, Zhao Chen ranked last, and Xuan Zi had carefully watched Zhao Chen's battle process and commented that he didn't have much strength.
After all, when Zhao Chen participated in the Five Extremes Grand Competition, he was drawn to competition items such as mechs, weapons, armor, and souls, which were all of Zhao Chen's weak points.
He himself was never the type to be good at controlling external things.
Then, when Zhao Chen was matched into the comprehensive battle, his opponents were mostly top-ranked students like Tang Wulin, Huo Yuhao, Xie Xie, Gu Yue, and Wu Siduo, and he was basically instantly killed by them.
This rather poor performance gave Xuanzi the confidence to take on the challenge.
Since he was going to fight, he decided to pick the weakest one to pick on. At this point, he stopped putting on airs, since he was going to fight the weak to get a reward.
Xuanzi slowly opened his mouth, his voice hoarse and low.
"I want to challenge Zhao Chen."
Xuanzi directly named Zhao Chen, who was called out. Upon hearing this, Zhao Chen couldn't help but sigh. After all, he was in last place, so it was normal for him to be challenged.
Zhao Chen was about to walk directly onto the arena when he saw Xuanzi suddenly turn his head and look at Lin Feng.
"Lin Feng, I remember you can even bring people back to life, so restoring my severed arm shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Upon hearing this, the entire audience was stunned.
Xuanzi stared straight at Lin Feng and continued speaking.
"You are now the dean of Shrek Academy. Since you've organized this competition, shouldn't you ensure its fairness?"
"Now I only have one arm left, my strength has been greatly reduced, and I am far inferior to my prime."
"Is it fair that you want me to fight your students with this crippled body?"
"So hurry up and restore my severed arm, so that this match can be considered fair and just."
Xuanzi spoke these words with great confidence and conviction.
After Xuanzi said these words, everyone was dumbfounded. Was Xuanzi an idiot?
How dare they speak to Lin Feng in such a tone? They really don't take Lin Feng seriously at all. Do they really think that the Douluo Continent is still in the era ruled by their pirated Shrek Academy?
Lin Feng slowly raised his hand and gently waved it in Xuanzi's direction.
The next second, Xuanzi's body exploded, turning into a cloud of blood mist.
Blood and flesh fragments scattered in the air, the scene was so gruesome that it was shocking to behold.
Before the bloody chaos could even begin, the fragments of flesh and blood instantly reformed, and Xuanzi's body reappeared intact once more.
However, the expression on his face was so distorted that his features were almost twisted together in pain.
But this is just the beginning.
The next instant, Xuanzi's body exploded once again, blood mist filling the air, and then he recovered once more.
Explode, restore, explode, restore.
This cycle repeats endlessly.
Dozens of times.
Every explosion is an extreme pain, and every recovery requires enduring the tearing sensation of flesh and blood being reassembled.
And with each repetition, the pain seemed to be magnified dozens of times.
Xuanzi's screams gradually changed from initial roars to hoarse sobs, and later he couldn't even make a sound anymore.
His body trembled violently with each explosion and recovery, and he was on the verge of a mental breakdown.
His gaze gradually became unfocused, and his old face was covered in cold sweat and blood, looking utterly wretched, a hundred times more miserable than when he first stepped onto the stage.
Just then, Lin Feng stopped and smiled at the disheveled Xuanzi, saying...
"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with me."
Chapter 403 I will witness its downfall?
The scene depicting fishy, vinegar-stained skin and blemishes was visually stimulating.
After all, not everyone has the chance to watch someone explode and recover in front of them, and it was quite clear from Xuanzi's face, which was twisted to the point of being deformed, that he was in excruciating pain.
The pain is so intense that just looking at it makes your scalp tingle.
Meanwhile, deep within a secret chamber of the Holy Spirit Cult, Long Xiaoyao watched this scene quietly through a light screen. His aged face showed little emotion, but a hint of surprise flickered in the depths of his murky eyes.
He naturally knew Xuanzi quite well, after all, Xuanzi was the nephew of his close friend Mu En.
When Mu En was alive, he mentioned this junior disciple to Long Xiaoyao more than once. His words contained both relief and worry. He was relieved that Xuanzi's talent was indeed not bad and that he had the potential to become an Ultimate Douluo in the future, becoming the pillar of Shrek Academy.
The worry is that Xuanzi is far too arrogant and disdainful of others.
Relying on his status as the pillar of Shrek Academy and on Moon's backing, he never bowed his head or admitted his mistakes.
Looking back now, Moon's concerns were absolutely correct.
Long Xiaoyao's gaze fell on the figure lying paralyzed on the ground in the light screen, and he couldn't help but sigh softly.
Before his death, Moon entrusted Longdan to me, instructing me to personally deliver it to Beibei.
At that time, Moon's body could no longer hold on, but he still mustered his last breath to explain the matter clearly.
Long Xiaoyao had also heard about Beibei's talent. Beibei was indeed one of the best among the younger generation, but in terms of talent, Beibei's talent was not as amazing as Mu En's back then, and even less than Xuanzi's.
When Moon was young, he was incredibly talented, attracting attention throughout the continent. While Beibei was also good, she was still a step behind Moon.
Therefore, Long Xiaoyao sometimes secretly wondered if he would really have the chance to hand over the Dragon Pill that Mu En had entrusted to him to Bei Bei one day.
That's still an unknown.
Long Xiaoyao had also considered handing over Mu En's Dragon Pill directly to Xuanzi.
After all, Xuanzi is Mu En's junior disciple, and his soul power has already reached level 98. If he receives the blessing of the Dragon Pill, he might be able to break through that barrier and step into the threshold of level 99.
Long Xiaoyao even considered whether to give Xuanzi nine cuts and eighteen holes to put his body in the weakest state before handing him the Dragon Pill, since that was the requirement for using the Dragon Pill, which required the body to be in the weakest state.
Xuanzi is currently in this state, but what he has experienced is far more tragic than the Nine Cuts and Eighteen Holes.
But in the end, Long Xiaoyao still gave up.
Because it was arranged by Moon's own close friend, he was unwilling to change Moon's mind arbitrarily.
My old friend had seen everything clearly before he died, and perhaps he had already calculated every step that would follow.
If I act rashly, I might disrupt Mu En's plans and end up harming Bei Bei and Xuan Zi.
Seeing Xuanzi's performance through this light screen, Long Xiaoyao was quite disappointed.
Xuanzi remained as arrogant as ever.
In the past, with Shrek Academy as a powerful backer, and Xuanzi's strength at level 98, plus the fact that Mu En was still alive, naturally no one would make things too difficult for Xuanzi.
Back then, even if Xuanzi acted arrogantly, no one dared to say anything.
But what about now?
Moon is dead, and their Shrek Academy has become a pirated version of Shrek Academy, so it's no exaggeration to say that it exists in name only.
Even so, Xuanzi remained unrepentant, as if he had no idea of the situation.
Still immersed in the dream that Shrek Academy is still the number one academy on the Douluo Continent.
Even when faced with such terrifying forces, they did not choose to bow their heads.
At this point, Long Xiaoyao couldn't find any other adjective to describe it except that he couldn't recognize the situation.
At this point, Long Xiaoyao truly understood Moon's good intentions.
The reason why Mu En entrusted the Dragon Pill to Long Xiaoyao instead of directly to Xuanzi before his death was probably because he had already seen through Xuanzi's character.
If Shrek Academy were truly handed over to Xuanzi, then Shrek Academy would essentially be finished.
Xuanzi's personality destined him to be unable to support this world.
But then again, now that this Shrek Academy has suddenly appeared in the sky, how different is their original Shrek Academy from one that exists in name only?
They're worlds apart, there's simply no comparison.
Especially Xuanzi, who has lost an arm and suffered a great loss of strength, is no longer able to be the pillar of Shrek Academy.
Today's pirated Shrek Academy doesn't even have a single pillar that it can be proud of.
Long Xiaoyao's gaze fell once again on Xuanzi's empty right sleeve, his heart filled with sighs.
This competition is currently restricted to players below Super Douluo level, but Xuanzi can participate. Therefore, Xuanzi's level must have dropped, and the level he lost is probably related to his severed arm.
I never expected that my soul bone would be cut off and my soul power would drop by ten levels?
Falling from level 98 to level 88 is a fatal loss for any Soul Master.
Looking at the disheveled figure in the light screen, Long Xiaoyao felt a surge of complex emotions.
Was he going to watch Shrek Academy, which had been glorious for thousands of years, fall before his very eyes?
That was, after all, the place that his dear friend Mu En had guarded with his entire life.
But now, all of this is beyond redemption.
However, Xuanzi is still a veteran Super Douluo. Even though he has lost ten levels of soul power, he still has the strength of level 88.
In addition, the Gluttonous Divine Ox is a top-tier beast spirit, which is extremely rare in the world of spirit masters.
Facing Zhao Chen, a junior who's only in his fifties, the outcome is probably hard to predict.
Of course, the most crucial thing is whether Lin Feng is willing to give Xuanzi another chance to compete.
Or does Lin Feng intend to kill Xuanzi directly?
Just as Long Xiaoyao was pondering to himself, Lin Feng looked at Xuanzi, who was lying paralyzed on the ground, with the same calm and unhurried smile on his face, and then spoke a few words.
"Alright, let's continue the match."
Lin Feng's words were spoken casually, without much hostility in his tone, as if he wasn't the one who had repeatedly killed Xuan Zi.
Perhaps... in Lin Feng's eyes, Xuanzi really is just an insignificant ant, not worth paying too much attention to?
At this moment, Zhao Chen also stepped onto the competition field. He knew that if he could not defeat Xuan Zi in front of him, he would be finished. His teacher would definitely scold him to death. Moreover... he not only had to defeat Xuan Zi, but also cripple Xuan Zi's other arm.
Xuanzi dared to offend the Dean; he's courting death!
Chapter 404 You Were Once the Mountain I Could Only Look Up To
And at that moment, the competition officially began.
Zhao Chen took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on Xuan Zi, who was standing not far in front of him.
At this moment, Xuanzi was in a disheveled state, with traces of cold sweat and blood still remaining on his old face, and his body was even trembling slightly, clearly not yet recovered from the dozens of explosions and recoveries he had just experienced.
Even so, Zhao Chen dared not be careless in the slightest.
Unlike others, Zhao Chen had heard of Xuanzi's reputation when he entered Shrek Academy in the sky, and at that time he could only look up to Xuanzi.
Even though he only has one arm left, and even though his soul power has dropped from level 98 to level 88, he is still Xuanzi.
Zhao Chen knew very well that he could not afford to lose this battle.
If they lose, not only will their teacher lose face, but the entire Temple of War and Shrek Academy will also be disgraced.
Zhao Chen gritted his teeth, stomped his feet hard on the ground, and a silvery-white light burst forth from his body.
A set of silver-white armor quickly covered his entire body. The armor was sleek and exquisite, with a lifelike crimson tiger pattern engraved on the breastplate, its mouth wide open and fangs bared.
