Shrek Academy is in a bad situation right now. The opponent is the second strongest in Shrek Academy, and there is no way he will be idle.

“Sit down! Since you made a mistake, you should take responsibility instead of trying to evade your duties by resigning!” Moon said disapprovingly.

Upon hearing this, Xuanzi sat back down, his face still showing sadness.

Mu En asked, "I'm asking you, why did you arrange for the students' families to be sent to White Tiger City? You clearly said at the Sea God Pavilion meeting that you wanted to send these students to Star Luo City."

The others stared intently at Xuanzi, equally curious.

After all, if the students' families had been relocated to Xingluo City, the situation of all those people being killed would not have occurred.

Xuanzi was silent for a while before saying, "Because, logically speaking, Zhongliwu will definitely attack Xingluo City. Therefore, for the safety of those students and their families, I certainly cannot arrange for them to stay in Xingluo City, otherwise I would be harming them."

Although I am very confident in killing Zhongli Wu, I cannot guarantee that the safety of others will not be compromised in the process.

"Why would Zhongliwu inevitably attack Xingluo City?" Mu En was still puzzled.

Xuanzi sighed, then slowly said, "Elder Mu, because I believe Yan Shaozhe is a traitor, he will definitely inform Zhongliwu of the plan passed at the Sea God Pavilion meeting. In this way, Zhongliwu will not be able to attack White Tiger City, but will directly attack Star Luo City."

"All I need to do is guard Xingluo City with my men and wait for Zhongli Wu to enter the fray. That's why I'm unwilling to support Shao Zhe and Mei'er. After all, since Baihu City won't be attacked, there's no need to support them. I just need to defend Xingluo City."

"However, I did not expect that Zhongli Wu would choose to attack White Tiger City! On the way back, after careful consideration, I felt that Shao Zhe and Zhongli Wu might have had a conflict, so I did not reveal the plan passed at the Sea God Pavilion to Zhongli Wu."

"I did make mistakes in the White Tiger City incident, but putting aside the facts, is Yan Shaozhe without fault?"

Chapter 554 Shrek Academy, refund my money!

In Xuanzi's view, if Yan Shaozhe informed Zhongliwu of the plan passed at the Sea God Pavilion meeting, Zhongliwu would definitely act as he had envisioned, and would then be killed by him and his group.

The White Tiger City incident would not have been possible.

Therefore, Yan Shaozhe must have made certain mistakes in the White Tiger City incident and needs to bear responsibility.

These shocking remarks made Yan Shaozhe indignant. He hadn't expected that even at this point, Xuanzi would still be smearing him.

He immediately stood up, looked at Mu En, and cupped his hands, saying, "Teacher, please see the truth. I am not a traitor at all. Xuanzi's slander against me is completely unfounded!"

Furthermore, I believe that Xuanzi, like Zhongli Wu and his group, bears undeniable responsibility for the White Tiger City incident. Please punish Xuanzi first.

He didn't give Xuanzi any face and addressed the other party as Elder Xuan.

After all, what the other party just said was truly infuriating.

Even though he had a good relationship with Xuanzi, he simply couldn't tolerate the other party's repeated slander against him.

“That’s right, Shao Zhe is right.” Cai Meier also stood up. As Yan Shao Zhe’s wife, she naturally stood on the same side as Yan Shao Zhe.

She also looked at Mu En, cupped her hands and said, "Elder Mu, please punish Elder Xuan! Many students in the academy lost their families because of the White Tiger City incident. They are utterly disappointed in the academy. If Elder Xuan is not punished, there will be no way to give the students an explanation!"

"No matter what, students are the most important thing in the academy. Even we, the elders of the Sea God Pavilion, grew up from Shrek students."

The students are already very disappointed with the academy. If they stop trusting the academy and drop out because of this, and even people outside the academy stop sending their children to Shrek Academy, what will happen to Shrek's long-standing legacy?

Even though Shrek Academy can now use its influence to command its graduates to fight against the evil Sun Moon Empire, as time goes by, those graduates will also pass away! Elder Mu, please make a decision!

The others also stood up, cupped their hands, and asked Mu En to make a decision to punish Xuanzi.

Normally, people wouldn't go to such lengths, since Xuanzi is the second strongest student at Shrek Academy, and there's no need to break ties with him.

However, Xuanzi's increasingly outrageous behavior brought increasingly serious negative impacts to the academy, and everyone couldn't care less about anything else.

“You…” Xuanzi’s gaze swept over the elders. He felt that the atmosphere in the Sea God Pavilion was different from usual. In the past, even if he made a mistake, he would not have to suffer so much criticism from the elders.

After all, his original intention was good, but some minor problems arose when implementing the plan, which led to a very bad outcome.

Mu En took a deep breath and then said, "Alright, then today I will announce two punishments. First, Xuanzi has made repeated mistakes, and each mistake has brought huge losses to the academy. This time, he has committed an even greater error."

Therefore, I believe he is no longer suitable to be the heir to the Sea God Pavilion. From today onwards, the heir to the Sea God Pavilion is Shao Zhe, and I will use some special methods to enhance Shao Zhe's strength.

Upon hearing this, the other elders did not object.

In the past, Yan Shaozhe was the successor of the Sea God Pavilion's previous generation.

The only requirement is that after Xuanzi inherits the position, Xuanzi will pass on the position of Pavilion Master to him. Making Yan Shaozhe the successor of the Sea God Pavilion Master is simply to allow Yan Shaozhe to skip Xuanzi and inherit the position of Sea God Pavilion Master directly after Elder Mu's death.

Xuanzi's eyes widened instinctively as he stared at Mu En in disbelief.

No matter what mistakes I made in the past, Elder Mu never took away my position as the successor of the Sea God Pavilion. Now, however, the other party has given the position of successor of the Sea God Pavilion to Yan Shaozhe, an internal traitor. This will definitely sow the seeds of disaster!

He has been working hard for the future of Shrek Academy. Although he has made some mistakes, it is not enough to disqualify him from the position of heir!

He was about to ask Elder Mu to reconsider the matter and retract his decision, but the words caught in his throat. After all, Elder Mu had already said so, and even if he argued, he couldn't change the other party's mind.

In the end, they had no choice but to give up.

Moon continued, "Secondly, the White Tiger City incident has now reached the academy. Many students have lost their families and are extremely disappointed with the academy. Some are even clamoring to drop out. I can understand their feelings."

Therefore, Xuanzi, you need to publicly apologize to the students to appease them and minimize the unrest within the academy.

Upon hearing this, Xuanzi nodded heavily and agreed. He had no objections to the matter, after all, he had already wronged those students.

Mu En waved his hand: "Alright, Xiao Song, you're the fastest. Go to Xingluo City and discuss the White Tiger City incident with the three powerful figures from the three empires there, as well as Xu Jiawei. As for the others, gather the students in the square and have Xuanzi publicly apologize."

"Yes, Elder Mu," everyone said in unison, and then they all left.

Moon leaned back in his chair, looking somewhat weak, and let out a long sigh.

He was extremely angry about Xuanzi's behavior, but he had no good way to punish Xuanzi.

After all, as long as Xuanzi isn't killed or his cultivation is crippled, other punishments don't really mean much to him.

However, he could not kill Xuanzi or cripple Xuanzi's cultivation. Because his origin was damaged, he did not have much time left to live. To strike Xuanzi hard would undoubtedly weaken the overall strength of Shrek Academy.

The situation on the Douluo Continent is changing rapidly, and Shrek Academy still needs a level 98 Super Douluo.

......

Shrek Square.

A large number of Shrek students were gathered by the elders and surrounded a high platform. They looked at the elders of the Sea God Pavilion on the platform with indignation.

Their anger was justified; after all, the academy had previously promised to protect the students' families, but now the families of the vast majority of the students had died at the hands of evil spirit masters.

To be honest, not everyone can recognize all the elders. For example, the students didn't recognize Xuanzi. After all, some of the elders of the Sea God Pavilion never reveal their identities to the students of the outer academy.

Of course, this does not mean that students from other colleges are not important. Even students from other colleges have grown up from students from other colleges.

However, Yan Shaozhe, Cai Meier, Xian Liner, and Qian Duoduo were well-known among the students, since all four of them held official positions.

The first two are the dean and vice dean of the Martial Soul Department, respectively.

The two then became the dean and vice dean of the Soul Guidance Department, respectively.

Xuanzi looked at the students, took a few steps forward, took a deep breath, her eyes filled with tears, and said in a choked voice, "Hello everyone, I am Xuanzi, the one who devised the plan to protect the students' families. I deeply regret the White Tiger City incident; we did not achieve a result that satisfied everyone. I solemnly apologize to you all here..."

At that moment, a male student in red in the front row interrupted Xuanzi, waving his fist and roaring, "Has the academy treated us fairly? Damn it, give us our money back!"

Upon hearing this, the students who had lost their families erupted like a powder keg with a lit fuse.

With red eyes, they angrily cursed the academy they once loved, cursed Xuanzi, and demanded refunds and expulsion.

Shrek Academy's tuition is not cheap. Even for students from other departments, the first year requires a fee of ten gold soul coins, excluding food expenses.

Tuition fees will increase in subsequent academic years, and the extent of the increase will be determined by the college.

Chapter 555 If you think the academy is bad, then you should go and build it.

Of course, Shrek Academy's tuition increases each academic year are not small.

This was a rule specifically set by the first Dean Flander after the War of the Gods, in order to allow the academy to earn as much money as possible from its students.

Even after Shrek Academy became the number one Soul Master Academy on the Douluo Continent, this rule remained unchanged.

The only saving grace is that after Shrek Academy became rich, students no longer had to print sponsor advertisements on their clothes when they played games.

At this moment, angry curses against the academy and Xuanzi came from all around, which sounded extremely grating to the ears of the elders on the high platform.

It was one thing for the students to be cursing Xuanzi, but the four deans and vice deans also wanted to curse him, but they were too embarrassed to say anything particularly offensive in front of so many people.

The students' angry rebukes of Xuanzi now reflect the true feelings of the four deans.

After all, if Xuanzi hadn't run into trouble, the White Tiger City incident would never have happened.

However, the students' insults towards the academy greatly displeased the four deans, who were still proud to be members of Shrek Academy and could not tolerate anyone slandering the academy.

Even Xuanzi, who had been interrupted, couldn't hold back any longer.

After all, he had always been proud to be a member of Shrek Academy.

These people kept cursing the college and him, and even interrupted him. If he didn't take some measures soon, when would he be able to successfully apologize to the students?

He immediately chose to possess his Martial Soul, his body radiating a thick yellow light, and a pair of bull horns sprouted from the top of his head. He used his soul power, his aura becoming increasingly intense, and shouted, "Quiet!"

Almost instantly, the sound driven by soul power, along with the intense aura emanating from Xuanzi, swept across the entire plaza.

The bustling square instantly became extremely quiet.

After all, that was the oppressive aura emanating from a level 98 Super Douluo.

For students, experiencing this level of pressure is undoubtedly too early.

Even if Xuanzi didn't have much ill intentions and just wanted the students to quiet down, this was enough to cause them a lot of trouble.

Xuanzi continued, "I must admit that I made a big mistake, so it is understandable that everyone is angry with me. I accept everyone's criticism and hereby sincerely apologize to everyone."

After saying this, Xuanzi, with the spirit of a craftsman, bowed to the students, lowered his head, and choked up, saying, "I really want to say sorry to you. If I had been more considerate, perhaps your families wouldn't have been killed by those ruthless evil spirit masters!"

"What's the use of an apology? Can our families come back to life? If we hadn't trusted the academy, why would we have agreed to the academy's plan to protect our families?" Someone roared angrily, tears streaming down their face, despite Xuanzi's heavy pressure.

"Yes, you're right. You're wrong, but the academy is wrong too!"

"I should never have come to Shrek Academy in the first place. The number one soul master academy on the continent? Bah! They swore they could protect my family, but now they can't even protect my family!"

For the students, the loss of family members was a devastating blow.

In the students' hearts, the grief and anger over losing their families instantly overwhelmed their fear of Xuanzi's oppressive aura, and various angry shouts once again filled the square.

Xuanzi frowned slightly. As the saying goes, the dead cannot be brought back to life. He had already apologized, but these students were still relentless.

It's normal for the students to keep harping on him, after all, he made a big mistake in the White Tiger City incident, and the students also need an outlet for their emotions. So, he silently endured the students' angry scolding.

But why cling to the college you love?

Hearing those insulting and accusatory words against the academy, Xuanzi was furious.
