Peerless: Tang San, this time Huo Yuhao is the attacker.

Six, six survivors?

Dai Huabin's pupils contracted sharply, and his heart turned ice-cold.

The fact that Huo Yuhao knew so much about one Soul Emperor and five Soul Kings meant that they not only attacked last night, but were also completely wiped out.

Damn it, damn it, damn it! Are these people idiots?! Even a Soul Emperor and five Soul Kings working together couldn't defeat a Great Soul Master and a Soul Venerable!

Dai Huabin could no longer harbor any illusions, but he still held onto a sliver of hope that Wang Dong was lying to him.

Dai Huabin was well aware of the people he had trained; they had a death wish, or rather, they dared not live.

Dai Huabin was able to barely maintain his composure, but Zhu Lu was far less composed. Her face was deathly pale, her lips were bloodless, and upon closer inspection, one could see that her body was trembling.

Zhu Lu now feels that the world is gray. She and Dai Huabin are bound by a marriage contract and have long been deeply intertwined.

The Zhu family is an affiliated family of the Dai family, which means that the Zhu family has no say. Whatever fate befalls Dai Huabin, Zhu Lu will suffer the same fate.

With a broken leg bet and a hired killer, Zhu Lu could hardly find any hope for Dai Huabin to turn the tables.

Zhu Lu's only consolation is that the current Star Luo Empire's royal family is not of the White Tiger lineage; otherwise, Dai Huabin would definitely have been executed according to the rules of the White Tiger royal family from ten thousand years ago.

However, she, who was engaged to Dai Huabin, couldn't escape either.

Seeing Zhu Lu's reaction, Dai Huabin cursed her under his breath, thinking, "Isn't this tantamount to admitting that the assassination was related to me?"

No wonder they've been nothing more than appendages of the Dai family for generations. And this is the most talented daughter in the Zhu family in recent generations. Dai Huabin really wants to slap Zhu Lu across the face right now.

"Then you should really thank that senior from the inner academy." Dai Huabin tried his best to appear indifferent, but his voice still trembled slightly.

"We will, Zhu Lu. Remember to consider my suggestion carefully. Dai Huabin, I'll be here on time tomorrow waiting for you to bring the things."

Huo Yuhao revealed a faint smile, but to Dai Huabin, that smile was so dazzling, so suffocating, and so terrifying.

Staring blankly as Huo Yuhao and the other two disappeared through the door, Dai Huabin slumped into a chair with a thud, his face ashen and his heart filled with dejection.

"It's all over, it's all over," Dai Huabin thought helplessly.

Huo Yuhao has complete evidence, which is like a cleaver hanging over his neck, ready to fall without his knowledge.

"Hua Bin, you really..."

"Shut up!" Zhu Lu's questioning tone was like a sharp knife piercing Dai Huabin's chest, completely igniting his anger and causing him to let out a hoarse, muffled growl like a wild beast.

"Get out of my way, you piece of trash!"

Zhu Lu's voice stopped abruptly as she looked at Dai Huabin, whose expression was ferocious, her eyes filled with disbelief.

She didn't speak, but silently sat back down in her chair. Her gaze towards Dai Huabin was no longer as ardent as before, but instead carried a deep gloom.

They were originally in a cooperative relationship. Dai Huabin was interested in the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, which could greatly enhance their abilities, while she was interested in Dai Huabin's powerful talent and future power.

Her previous enthusiasm and obedience stemmed from her ability to see a bright future in Dai Huabin.

But now... hehe.

Zhu Lu understood from Dai Huabin's reaction that the assassination attempt on Huo Yuhao and the other two was carried out by Dai Huabin. If what Wang Dong said was true, six people were left alive.

The bet alone was enough to disqualify Dai Huabin from becoming the Duke of White Tiger, but now he has been accused of cruelty.

In the future, let alone surpassing his older brother Dai Yueheng, it's uncertain whether he can even surpass that guy Dai Luoli.

Zhu Lu wanted to use Dai Huabin to soar to great heights, not to accompany him into the abyss.

Break the deadlock! She must break the deadlock!

Duke Baihu has three sons. Dai Huabin is already a cripple, and although Dai Yueheng has no fiancée, the gap between the two is too great, both in age and strength.

Dai Luoli is an absolute waste of talent when it comes to cultivation, and there are no outstanding geniuses in this generation of the White Tiger collateral line.

How can she protect herself?

Sea God Pavilion.

"Yunzhi, have you found out?"

"Old Mu, just as Xiao Tao guessed, those six people were indeed instigated by Dai Huabin."

I also found records in the auction house of Dai Huabin sending a message to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion a few days ago.

Song Yunzhi nodded to Mu En, who was in the main seat, and replied in a deep voice.

The elders of the Sea God Pavilion are all responsible for their own affairs. Lin Huiqun is the head of the Treasure Pavilion, Gong Changlong is in charge of the entire arena, and Song Yunzhi is in charge of the auction house.

As for why it's "basic" rather than "all," we have to mention a certain Chicken Leg Douluo who idles around all day, only knowing how to drink and eat meat.

"In that case, everyone knows what happened."

Dai Huabin, coveting the rewards from the freshman assessment, made a bet. After losing, he refused to honor the bet and instead sent assassins to kill Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Xiao Xiao.

Mu En calmly surveyed the crowd before uttering his final words, "What do you think should be done to punish Dai Huabin?"

Normally, this kind of thing wouldn't be decided by a special meeting of the Sea God Pavilion; the Dean of the Martial Soul Department could decide it on his own.

If it were an ordinary student, Yan Shaozhe would definitely have punished them directly, but the people involved in this assassination are a bit troublesome, either with special backgrounds or top-notch talents.

Dai Huabin is the son of the Duke of Baihu, and to some extent, he can even be regarded as an official of the Star Luo Empire.

Wang Dong is a member of the Haotian Sect. Her exact position is unknown, but given her talent, it's impossible for her to be of low status. You could believe she's the successor, Yan Shaozhe.

These two have special backgrounds, while the other two are naturally top-notch talents.

Xiao Xiao possesses twin martial souls, a rare occurrence even in a century, and her future is bright.

Needless to say, Huo Yuhao not only possesses twin martial souls, one of which is of the highest attribute. He is a direct descendant of the academy and the most powerful seed student in the future.

Yan Shaozhe truly didn't have the guts to make a decision about the conflicts among this group of trainees on his own.

If not handled properly, it could become a diplomatic disaster for Shrek Academy, and Yan Shaozhe doesn't want to be remembered in Shrek Academy's history as a sinner.

Therefore, he immediately and without hesitation initiated the Sea God Pavilion meeting.

After Moon finished speaking, most of the elders just looked at each other without taking the initiative to speak.

Those of you here are all shrewd people who have lived for decades or even centuries. You all know the intricacies of this situation and don't want to be the scapegoat.

Punish Dai Huabin? He is the son of the Duke of Baihu, a member of the Star Luo royal family ten thousand years ago, and now the commander-in-chief of the Star Luo army.

People in the Star Luo Empire might not know that the emperor's name is Xu Jiawei, but they will definitely know that the marshal's name is Dai Hao. That's the gist of it.

To put it bluntly, the Duke of White Tiger wanted to rebel, but he was missing one thing: a suitable excuse.

His rebellion was bound to succeed, but the problem was how to legitimize it.

After all, the White Tiger lineage voluntarily abdicated four thousand years ago, and it's impossible to simply take it back now. But this also demonstrates the strength and influence of the White Tiger lineage.

The White Tiger lineage now holds a position equivalent to half of the Star Luo royal family. Punishing Dai Hao's eldest son, Dai Huabin, is tantamount to antagonizing the Star Luo Empire.

(The statement that punishing Dai Huabin equals making enemies of Xingluo is not something I made up; it comes from Chapter 59 of the original work. What I did was to make this statement seem reasonable.)
