Douluo Continent: We agreed on a simulation, but they've come to life?

"it is good!"

He glanced at Poison Undying with apprehension, then squeezed out a sentence: "Shrek Academy, I concede!"

Chapter 235 Shrek's Revenge, Private Meeting

That night.

Sun Moon Hotel.

Shrek Academy rest area.

The hall was brightly lit, and many participating disciples gathered together, with a dark cloud hanging over them. In fact, their competition had already ended, and the results had been announced earlier that day.

Only two teams from their group made it to the round of 16.

The Body Sect and the Earth Dragon Gate.

And Shrek Academy is ranked third.

Anyone would know that with that prodigy Lu Cheng around, Shrek Academy had no chance of winning the championship, but... that's what they said, but they were sniped and fell in the group stage, plus Bei Bei died.

I have no face to go back and face the many eager and expectant senior students and junior students.

"How about I assassinate that brat? I have to give Elder Mu an explanation." Xuanzi's face was gloomy as he paced back and forth in the hall.

"No!" Xian Lin'er also looked worried, but still shook her head.

“That kid must have a powerful expert from the Body Sect protecting him. Everyone knows you want to kill him, but what about afterwards? Besides… we still need the guys from the Body Sect to hold off the Sun Moon Empire and give us a chance to escape.”

"..."

The scene suddenly fell silent.

Xuanzi froze, as if he had remembered something. "What if... what if this competition is ruined? No, I mean what if something even bigger happens and overshadows this competition?"

With the Star Luo Empire's warning, they also realized that the Sun Moon Empire was about to make a big move.

Therefore, a hint of excitement flashed in Xuanzi's eyes.

"This year's competition is the least prestigious in history because the Sun Moon Empire will launch a war afterward and simultaneously annihilate all the forces from the original continent that came to participate. Those guys... those guys who know we don't have any top 16, they can't go back to the original continent!"

"Those who can return are the Star Luo Empire, the Heavenly Soul Empire, and others. Apart from the Body Sect, they have no grudges against us and even have to curry favor with us, so they will not reveal anything."

"So the rankings in this competition aren't that important to begin with, but if we add fuel to the fire..."

Xian Lin'er was also taken aback by what Xuanzi said.

Is this... a case of intelligence taking over the high ground?

"First, add fuel to the fire, for example, by making a big move in Mingdu before leaving. Second, it would be best to leave the Body Sect here completely..." Xuanzi clapped his hands heavily, his face full of excitement.

"..."

At this moment, only the Shrek Academy team members remained inside the room.

Xie Huanyue was at a loss for words, while Tang Wutong was filled with righteous indignation, vowing to avenge her blood feud. Lan Ruoruo and Lan Susu exchanged a glance, as if the twin sisters had a telepathic connection, and a hint of worry flashed in their eyes.

Lan Ruoruo narrowed her eyes slightly, looking questioning.

Lan Susu pondered for a moment, then nodded silently.

Time to slip away...

……

For several days in a row.

Lu Cheng competes in the competition during the day and goes to the Qingse Hotel at night.

After the round of 16, the pace of the competition suddenly accelerated. In the round of 16, they encountered the Tianlong Sect, which frightened Yu Tianlong so much that he turned ashen-faced, surrendered and admitted defeat, completely losing his fighting spirit and all his former arrogance.

In the quarterfinals, Tang Ya faced the Tang Clan. Helpless, she shook her head and simply conceded defeat.

The list of the top four has been released. Their opponent is the Holy Spirit Cult, while the Royal Academy of the Sun Moon Empire will face off against the Proud Sword Sect. Anyone with eyes can see that the Sun Moon Empire has pulled some strings behind the scenes, but they can also vaguely sense the dark clouds hanging over Mingdu, which have been gathering for a long time.

He was undeterred in the underground soul guide competition in Mingdu at night, and managed to get his hands on the carving knife Dark Azure Dragon, who was ranked fifty-ninth. As for the other carving knife, he gave up on it because he didn't encounter anyone.

Of course, the most important thing is the Leaf Bone Robe.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't erase that mental imprint. As the final match approached, Lu Cheng became increasingly uneasy.

The hotel was dimly lit.

The beautiful woman, dressed in a light gauze, lay in Lu Cheng's arms, her golden eyes filled with longing: "Teacher, will you come to see me again in the future?"

"Don't talk nonsense. I can't possibly leave you alone in the Holy Spirit Cult." Lu Cheng's eyes narrowed slightly. He had already begun to consider the feasibility of infiltrating the Holy Spirit Cult. If all else failed, he would sneak back alone after escaping Mingdu with everyone.

"Hmm..." Ye Guyi leaned gently against Lu Cheng's chest, a hint of embarrassment and annoyance flashing in her eyes. She had already been so revealing and dressed so scantily, but the teacher hadn't even glanced at her.

"Besides, will my senior sister accept me? Will she be unhappy if she knows you're here with me...?"

"Ouch~"

Ye Guyi rubbed her head and looked at Lu Cheng with a cute expression.

"Stop talking nonsense, we'll talk about that after we get you out of here."

Lu Cheng was somewhat helpless. This girl had really gone mad from being in the Holy Spirit Cult.

The next instant, the communication soul guide diamond ring on his finger flashed, his brows furrowed slightly, and he jumped off the bed, waved to Ye Guyi, and then turned and left.

The fact that Du Busi called him back clearly indicates that something important happened.

Only Ye Guyi lay gently on the bed, then moved to the spot where Lu Cheng had just been, leaned down gently, and inhaled her teacher's scent. The madness in her eyes seemed to have faded a little.

"Tell me, should I imprison him?"

“Don’t ask me…” Qian Renxue’s illusory image appeared, “but it seems he’s sincere towards you.”

“I know.” Ye Guyi lay on her back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. “I might be too selfish, always wanting to have him all to myself. If… never mind.”

Ye Guyi shook her head. For some reason, her initial frantic thoughts faded after seeing him.

It seems that as long as he's happy, she'll be happy too.

……

"Shrek Academy is holding a conference to discuss an escape plan?" Lu Cheng looked at Du Busi with slight surprise. The latter shrugged: "That little girl from the Star Luo Empire came in person. She hopes we can participate as well. After all, the final is the decisive battle. After you finish fighting the Holy Spirit Cult tomorrow, you should leave."

"Discussing it now is already a last-minute effort."

"..."

Lu Cheng pondered for a moment, then nodded.

"In that case, let's go."

However, there are probably some grudges involved in Shrek Academy's affairs, so it's hard to say...

As soon as they entered the secluded hotel, they noticed someone was watching them at the entrance.

Lu Cheng walked calmly into the room that Xu Jiujiu had notified him to enter, with Du Busi following behind him.

Looking around, there were very few people.

Only the Star Luo Empire, the Dou Ling Empire, and Shrek Academy are among the powerful forces.

Besides that, they didn't even call anyone from the Heavenly Dragon Sect.

This demonstrates Xu Jiujiu's caution.

At this point, it's a matter of life and death. Getting caught could really mean you're done for. Who knows what the other side will do to you? So, it's better to be safe than sorry. Casting aside your pitiful compassion isn't a bad thing.

"Lu Cheng."

Seeing Lu Cheng arrive with the poisoned immortal, Xu Jiujiu clearly breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards him.

P.S.: Big update at midnight tonight!

Chapter 236 The Chicken Leg Douluo Who Bullies the Soft and Fears the Hard, Discussing a Breakthrough (3.5K Long Chapter, Requesting Monthly Tickets!)

"And Senior Poison, please have a seat."

Xu Jiujiu, dressed in a light yellow outfit, smiled and said, "The Star Luo team was defeated by the Sun Moon Empire Royal Team in the quarterfinals yesterday. Therefore, she doesn't need to rush to prepare for tomorrow's competition."

Lu Cheng smiled and nodded in response.

When their gazes swept over Shrek Academy's location, they saw Xuanzi and Xianlin'er. Xuanzi was taking a vicious bite of a chicken leg, his face full of malice, as if he wanted to rush forward again. Xianlin'er's eyes were full of fear, and she reached out to pull Xuanzi back...

The old woman from the Douling Empire, a titled Douluo, had no name or surname. When she saw Lu Cheng, she showed a kind smile.

"Alright, now that everyone is here, let me give a brief overview of the current situation." Xu Jiujiu stood in the middle, showing no stage fright in front of so many powerful figures, and appeared poised and confident.

In fact, this meeting should not have been hosted by the Star Luo Empire.

After all, their strength is weak, but the two strongest ones here, Shrek Academy and Body Sect, are at odds, even mortal enemies. If one side presides over the meeting, it will inevitably provoke a counterattack from the other side.

With time running out and the task heavy, and given that Xu Jiujiu was the initiator, the role of host was given to her.

"The Sun and Moon Empire is trying to capture us contestants to threaten the forces behind us. According to my multiple experiments, I have sent communications soldiers in the four directions of east, west, south, and north, but there has been no response. At this moment, Mingdu is most likely already an impenetrable fortress." Xu Jiujiu pressed her finger on the map, her pretty face full of solemnity.

Upon hearing this, everyone present fell silent.

A solemn expression gradually appeared on their faces. Clearly, the Sun and Moon Empire was quite ambitious and intended to wage war directly against the original continent. If everyone were to fall into this place, what would be the point of fighting?

"If you ask me, we should leave now. Anyway, everyone here has finished their matches, and we don't need the so-called finals title," Xuanzi said sinisterly, taking a swig of wine from his gourd.

"Some people, don't try to drag things out just to get that last spot, disregarding our safety at all costs, haha..."

The others exchanged glances. Although they knew that Shrek Academy was deliberately targeting the Body Sect, since the Body Sect was the only one that had made it to the top four, and with the prodigy Lu Cheng in the team, winning the championship was almost a certainty.

Who would lose the most if they left now? Undoubtedly, it would be the Body Sect.

However, despite their words, they still supported Xuanzi's statement in their hearts. After all, the further they went, the greater the danger would be, and breaking through as soon as possible was the most important thing.

"Tsk." A look of astonishment flashed in Lu Cheng's eyes as he looked at Xuanzi, who was holding a chicken leg in one hand and a wine gourd in the other, looking at him with smug satisfaction: "Chicken Leg Douluo has become intelligent? He can even use strategies now."

The entire room fell silent.

Everyone was stunned. They all knew the two were rivals, but no one expected them to expose each other's true colors like this.

What the heck is Chicken Leg Douluo?

Xu Jiu suppressed a smile. Seeing Xuan Zi's disheveled appearance with a chicken leg in his hand, it was actually quite fitting. Moreover, whenever he met Xuan Zi in the past, this old man always seemed to be carrying a chicken leg in his hand.
