Douluo Sharingan, I really didn't coerce Xiao Wu!

Chapter 151 Yu Xiaogang Returns

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy, a seeded team and the representative team of the Heaven Dou Empire, boasts an all-Soul Master lineup, making them an extremely powerful team in any academy.

Captain Yu Tianheng possesses the world's number one beast spirit, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex. Vice Captain Dugu Yan is the granddaughter of the Poison Douluo of the Continent. Among them is Ye Lingling, a top-tier support spirit master and the owner of the Nine Heart Begonia spirit.

With such a luxurious lineup, they should have made it to the finals. However, the Spirit Hall team sent two people, and in just one minute, they defeated all seven members of the Heaven Dou team. None of them had any power to resist, and they completely crushed them.

"Unrivaled champions on the field, undefeated—this is the true strength of the Spirit Hall team!"

"To achieve so much at such a young age, and to cultivate such a powerful genius, the Spirit Hall's foundation is truly unfathomable."

"As expected of the three prodigies of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, seeing them today, their reputations are truly well-deserved!"

The contestants, teachers, nobles, and others present were all shocked, and a clamor arose as they gained a new understanding of the Spirit Hall.

The Shrek team members were demoralized and heavy-hearted. Even Flander and Liu Erlong lacked confidence in defeating the Spirit Hall team.

Let alone one minute, even two minutes, Shrek Academy wouldn't be confident of defeating a team of all Soul Masters in such a short time, let alone the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Two people swept through the entire Heaven Dou team. With such strength, even Tang San lost confidence. Is it really possible for him and the Shrek Academy team to defeat these people now?

Despite witnessing the overwhelming defeat, Chen Xuan remained calm and did not lose confidence. On the contrary, he felt that he was no less capable than his opponent.

After all, when he was still in the Soul Sect, he killed a powerful attack-type Soul Emperor and a Soul Saint of the Illusion Realm, Shi Nian. Both of them were no weaker than Yao Mei, so what did he have to fear?

Now that he had made it to the finals, Chen Xuan felt there was no need to hide anymore. Winning the Elite Tournament championship would be the only way to make his months of hard work worthwhile.

The competition continued, with the turn of the New Divine Wind Academy, Tianshui Academy, Thunder Academy, and various teams from the Star Luo faction.

Chen Xuan didn't linger and left the competition area first. The Spirit Hall team's match was over, and he knew a little about the other academies, so there was no need to pay too much attention to them. He could leave it to Flander and Qin Ming's group.

Instead of returning to the hotel, he explored Wuhun City, noting down important terrain features and searching for the best blacksmiths to forge some items.

In the afternoon, today's elite competition ended. Tianshui, Leiting, and Yishou academies were eliminated. The Tiandou Empire sent fifteen teams, and now only Xin Shenfeng Academy and Shrek Academy remain.

Chen Xuan was not surprised to hear this news; it was all expected. By the time of the competition the year after next, everyone would be a Soul Master. If a team wasn't composed entirely of Soul Masters, there would be no hope at all.

"The finals are getting closer and closer. I wonder if the final outcome will be the same as in the original timeline," Chen Xuan murmured as he walked out of the blacksmith shop.

Sometimes, he himself couldn't distinguish between illusion and reality. In this world, would Xiao Wu's identity as a soul beast be discovered and she be hunted down by the Spirit Hall?

If Bibi Dong really finds out, will Tang Hao still rescue Xiao Wu?

Now that Xiao Wu is pregnant, Chen Xuan dares not gamble any longer and must start preparing for the future. Rather than placing his hopes on others, he should try to seize a chance himself.

He then went to the blacksmith and ordered a batch of weapons, not returning home until evening.

Chen Xuan hurriedly opened the upgrade gift pack and rushed back to the hotel. He sped along the way and soon returned to the suburbs.

However, when he entered the hotel, he immediately noticed something was wrong. The lobby was dimly lit and empty, with no one around, and the atmosphere was rather calm.

This is extremely strange for a hotel; it's as if someone deliberately cleared the place out.

Just as he was walking through the hall, into the dimly lit reception room, a sudden, unexpected voice rang out.

"Chen Xuan, you're back." Flander's emotionless, cold voice rang out in the dimly lit room.

Chen Xuan looked up at the sound and saw pairs of eyes staring at him in the dark space.

The lights were turned on, filling the entire living room with light. There was a row of sofas where Flander, Liu Erlong, Qin Ming, and Dugu Bo were sitting.

All seven members of the Shrek Seven Devils had arrived, including the substitutes. The area behind the sofa and on both sides was packed with people.

At this moment, Tang San, Flander, and everyone else remained expressionless and silent, creating a quiet atmosphere.

Most people stared at Chen Xuan with cold eyes, but no one spoke.

Furthermore, Dai Mubai, who was seriously injured the day before yesterday, should have been recuperating in the rear, but he actually appeared here, sitting on a single sofa, looking at Chen Xuan with unfriendly eyes.

Chen Xuan frowned slightly. He was puzzled by the large commotion, but when he noticed the wheelchair next to him, he understood everything.

"He actually survived?" Upon seeing this familiar person, he was stunned and utterly astonished.

That's right, the disheveled middle-aged man sitting in the wheelchair was none other than the deceased master Yu Xiaogang.

Back in the wilderness, Chen Xuan punched Yu Xiaogang in the chest, leaving a bloody hole that was clear from front to back. His lungs and ribs were gone. How could he survive such an injury?

It should be noted that Yu Xiaogang was only a Soul Venerable, with a fragile physique. Even after being cut hundreds of times, the amount of blood loss was enough to kill him.

If it were any other Soul Master of equal standing, they would surely die. Yet a Soul Venerable who had stagnated for decades survived. Chen Xuan couldn't believe that no one had interfered; it was simply too illogical.

"Chen Xuan, is there anything else you want to say?" Liu Erlong's face was so gloomy it could drip water, and he stared coldly at the young man in front of him.

Dugu Bo shook his head and sighed. He had thought highly of this young man, but he never expected him to be a master-killer. It was truly unexpected.

Without much thought, Chen Xuan quickly understood the whole story.

Yu Xiaogang guessed his identity as an assassin, and now that he has returned to Shrek Academy, he will surely tell Flander, Liu Erlong, and the Shrek Seven Devils about it.

Among them, Tang San was the most furious. Xiao Wu being taken away was already enough to upset him, but today his teacher's return from the dead soothed his troubled mood.

Who would have thought that the damned Chen Xuan not only stole Xiao Wu, but was also the murderer of his teacher?

If he hadn't known he was no match for Chen Xuan, he would have gone to avenge his teacher long ago.

"Chen Xuan, is this true?" Xiao Wu, Jiang Zhu, Zhu Zhuqing and the others asked, unwilling to believe it.

"Chen Xuan, you humiliated and abused me like that back then. It's a pity that God had eyes and let me live." Yu Xiaogang sat in a wheelchair. Even though he survived, some of his injuries could not be healed, and he was now a cripple.

Liu Erlong was heartbroken. Her man was so outstanding, yet he had fallen into such a miserable state. His tendons in his hands and feet were destroyed and could not be restored. The master would have to spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Chen Xuan had regained his composure; after the initial shock, he quickly suppressed his agitated emotions.

He wasn't worried, feeling that he wouldn't be exposed because he had a solid alibi for the day. Besides, the assassin who went to kill Yu Xiaogang was just a shadow clone, so it wouldn't leave any clues.

"Master, I am very happy that you have come back from the dead, but it is a bit too much for you to rush back and slander me for assassinating you."
