Douluo: Peerless Righteous Douluo

The rules of the college are still in my heart. I am willing to abide by the rules of the college and naturally stand on the side of the college.

So, Moon, who had only asked one question the whole time, finally spoke.

"Now that the matter has been clarified, Xiaoyi, you discovered the inappropriate behavior of the external college teachers and exposed them, thus safeguarding the honor of Shrek Academy and the purity of the teaching staff. This is a meritorious service and you deserve a reward."

"But you threatened Fan Yu with an eighth-level fixed-type soul guide cannonball, endangering the lives of countless students in the outer courtyard. This is a mistake and you will be punished."

"Finally, merits and demerits will be balanced, with no reward or punishment. Do you have any objections?"

Lin Yi bowed deeply, "Master, you are fair and just. I admire you."

This matter is now over. Was there any interrogation?

No.

Because Moon was there from beginning to end and knew the whole process?

No, or rather, not entirely.

As I said, the outcome was decided from the moment Lin Yi took action.

Did Zhou Yi and Fan Yu do anything wrong?

Of course I did something wrong.

But does right or wrong matter?

For forces in the accumulation stage, it is very important. If they are not handled carefully, their reputation will be ruined and they will become disunited internally.

But for Shrek, which has existed for thousands of years, it is really not a big deal.

As long as there is a Limit Douluo in charge, Shrek will still be the number one academy in the world for thousands of years and the leader of the three top forces.

For Shrek, who has already reached the top, interests are more important than right or wrong.

When Lin Yi could bring greater and more benefits, he was just a small Soul Emperor and an eighth-level Soul Master who was not irreplaceable.

What's more, this time Lin Yi always stood on the ground of justice.

Just like how Shrek's ten thousand years of glory was used to stimulate the fighting spirit of the students in the Star Dou Great Forest, glory is just a way for the Shrek top management to strengthen their influence.

However, after shouting the slogan so many times, I gradually came to believe that Glory could influence the students below and the elders above.

There is only one position in the entire Shrek that will not be affected by this so-called glory, and that is the Lord of the Sea God Pavilion, because he holds the final right of interpretation of this glory.

The current glory was formulated, or influenced by Moon. Lin Yi stood on the righteousness of glory, and no matter what the result was, Lin Yi would not suffer too much loss.

This is a game between master and apprentice, and has nothing to do with feelings. The master and apprentice still care about each other, but in terms of ideas or behavior styles, Moon and Lin Yi are different after all.

The result this time is that both sides took a step back, but Lin Yi had to retreat less because he was the future.

In the Sea God Pavilion, an elder asked, "What about the treatment of Zhou Yi and Fan Yu..."

Moon was silent for a few breaths, then suddenly asked, "Xiaoyi, what do you think?"

Lin Yi was slightly startled. "This matter will naturally be decided by Master and the elders. How can a disciple interfere?"

"This position as your master will be yours sooner or later. Xiaozhuang just said that he would teach you slowly, but I think we can do it faster. From now on, I will teach you personally."

When Moon said this, everyone was startled.

After Mr. Zhuang made it clear that Lin Yi was the future of the academy, Moon actually spoke out directly to clarify that Lin Yi was the future leader of the Sea God Pavilion. This was during a Sea God Pavilion meeting, and such words were equivalent to completely confirming that from now on, Lin Yi was a real senior leader, the kind in power.

And now we start learning, with Moon teaching us personally. What do we learn? What do we teach?

How to hold power and how to handle things.

Moon's two short sentences were equivalent to the emperor personally appointing the crown prince, determining the heir to the empire, and personally teaching him the ways of being a king.

From this moment on, Lin Yi's position in Shrek was truly as stable as a rock.

Lin Yi naturally understood the deeper meaning in Moon's words. His eyes fluctuated slightly, but then he regained his composure and began to analyze calmly.

"Zhou Yi's behavior has a huge impact on the academy's reputation. This matter has spread and must be dealt with seriously. This is to tell everyone that Shrek is not afraid of making mistakes, because when we make a mistake, we will admit it and correct it."

"Secondly, if you're being beaten, you must stand at attention and take concrete measures to compensate the students whose interests have been harmed and restore the students' trust in the academy."

Moon remained noncommittal. "What compensation?"

"Students previously expelled by Zhou Yi without reason will be given re-enrollment as compensation. At the same time, they will be given three places for admission without taking the entrance exam. However, they will still be treated the same as ordinary students and will need to pass various assessments every year. If they fail, they will still be expelled."

"Can't they be admitted to the sixth grade?"

Lin Yi shook his head. "Shrek's foundation cannot be changed. Those who graduate from Shrek are all elites. This must be guaranteed. We can relax certain conditions for admission, but we must maintain strict standards for graduation. This is the foundation of Shrek. If the graduation standards become loose, Shrek will be no different from ordinary academies."

"That's just the outer courtyard..." Some elders were a little disdainful of the outer courtyard.

"If we carry the Shrek name, we must abide by Shrek's rules. Moreover, the outer courtyard disciples are the main source of the inner courtyard. We cannot lose this foundation."

Moon nodded slowly, "Yes, I really thought about it seriously."

"Master, you are too kind."

"You only mentioned Zhou Yi. So, what are you going to do with Fan Yu?"

The elders also became a little more energetic. To be honest, without Fan Yu, Zhou Yi was nothing. Shrek had never lacked such ordinary teachers.

Fan Yu is different. He is an eighth-level soul engineer and the director of the Soul Guidance Department. Fan Yu is a true descendant trained by Shrek. Although he cannot be compared with Lin Yi, he is also a precious force. It is heartbreaking to lose him in vain.

"Director Fan Yu, I believe he was deceived. The Soul Guidance Department is very busy, especially in recent years. Our Soul Guidance Department has been booming. Even my father has been busy all the time. It is understandable that Director Fan Yu was oversight."

The essence of power struggle is compromise. Since Moon and Poseidon Pavilion have given Lin Yi a guarantee and a promise, Lin Yi naturally has to reciprocate and make concessions.

Fanyu is naturally the peach.

"As long as Director Fan Yu admits his mistakes with a good attitude, I think we should give him a chance to redeem himself and make meritorious contributions. We can't let those who have truly devoted themselves to the academy feel disheartened."

It is okay to make concessions, but the attitude must be right. Lin Yi gave his own conditions. It is okay to turn over Fan Yu, make him bow his head and admit that he is wrong.

This condition was obviously not difficult, and the elders nodded repeatedly.

Moon also nodded slightly, with imperceptible admiration in his eyes.

Lin Yi's handling of the matter was quite skillful. He knew how to compromise, had a bottom line, and used both kindness and force.

The most representative example is the compensation measure that Lin Yi had proposed earlier: those who had been expelled would be readmitted to school, and three places would be given exemption from the entrance exam. This was a favor.

Is the focus of this compensation on re-enrollment?

Of course not, the focus is on the three places that are exempt from the exam.

Those who were able to enter Shrek Academy but were expelled due to lack of talent were basically from small families and small nobles. Ordinary money would be useless if it did not reach a certain amount in order to benefit such people, and the compensation for them was obviously not at that level, not to mention any precious treasures.

What can be of use to them is something like connections. The three exemptions given by Shrek are top-level admission tickets that can help them build up their connections. After all, there is no requirement that the three exemptions must be used by themselves, which means that they can be transferred.

The title of the number one academy on the continent is enough to attract countless people. With such an admission ticket as a stepping stone, the network has been established, and whether it can be maintained depends on one's own ability. After all, what Shrek provides is just compensation.

However, admission without examination does not mean that there is no need to undergo annual assessments. This is the power of the world. The capable will be promoted and the mediocre will be demoted.

In fact, all in all, this compensation did not cause much loss to Shrek. After all, most of the people who were exempted from the exam could not stay in Shrek for too long. If there were really some who could persist to the end and even be admitted to the inner courtyard, it would expand the student base for Shrek, and they would be overjoyed.

As for the slight loss of reputation, after compensation is in place, it will be transformed into a reputation for admitting mistakes and correcting them and being humble.

Lin Yi is thoughtful, aware of gains and losses, and knows how to advance and retreat. Obviously, his methods have fully proved that he is qualified to be a superior.

So……

Moon coughed lightly twice. As his master, he would naturally give his disciple a helping hand since he had the ability.

"From today onwards, Lin Yi will enter the Sea God Pavilion and temporarily sit in the audience seat. He will not participate in decision-making."

Chapter 96: Finally Becoming a Wooden Clone

As soon as Moon finished speaking, the expressions of the elders in the Sea God Pavilion changed. It was really that in such a short period of time, Lin Yi's status and position changed too quickly.

Although all the elders understood that Lin Yi was worthy of Moon's order in terms of both status and merit.

I won’t mention his identity, I’ll just talk about his merits. The merits of the Dragon Patterned Rice cover the top powerhouses in the entire academy.

Secondly, it was the matter of Moon's injury. All the elders knew that Lin Yi had really stabilized Moon's injury. Not to say that he had fully recovered, but it was enough for him to attack with all his strength several times. The value of this to Shrek was immeasurable. At least, it was enough for Shrek to successfully complete the replacement of its highest combat power. For this reason alone, Lin Yi's contribution was completely sufficient.

But even though he understood it, Lin Yi's speed was simply too fast.

From Mr. Zhuang's blunt statement that Lin Yi was the future of Poseidon Pavilion, to Moon's personal confirmation that Lin Yi was the next Poseidon Pavilion Master, and finally to Moon's ordering Lin Yi to join Poseidon Pavilion and become a member of Shrek Academy's highest authority, all of this happened in just a quarter of an hour.

To give an example, as the future successor of the Shrek Empire, Lin Yi completed the entire process from being nominated as the crown prince by the ministers, to being officially conferred the title of crown prince by the emperor, to entering the cabinet and observing politics from the sidelines, in just a quarter of an hour.

At this time, it is said that we will only listen and not participate in decision-making, but who will really believe it and really do it?

If Lin Yi really has something to say or comment on, will Moon and the elders stop him from speaking?

impossible.

Who would so directly offend the future master of the empire...the head of the Sea God Pavilion?

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Lin Yi does not die young, it is a foregone conclusion that he will inherit the throne and ascend to the throne. There is an imperial edict, which is legal, reasonable and rational.

Even if something happened to Moon the next moment, Lin Yi would still be the first in line to the throne, and the elders around him were all loyal royalists.

In addition, Lin Yi's parents are both powerful vice presidents of Shrek's two major departments. It can be said that the current Shrek Academy has truly begun the era of the Lin family.

It also means that Lin Yi's interests are completely tied to Shrek. This is the guarantee that Moon left for Shrek.

The result of Zhou Yi's treatment was conveyed by the veteran to Ouyang Xi, who took direct charge of the matter. The matters concerning the students were handed over to Du Weilun, the director of the Wuhun Department.

Because of the invisible game between Lin Yi and Moon, the master and apprentice, Du Weilun, the head teacher, escaped and his name never appeared from beginning to end.

But Ouyang Xi would not ignore that it was Director Du who kept Zhou Yi, sold Fan Yu out, preserved the friendship between colleagues, and almost got his own baby in.

Although he didn't say it explicitly, Ouyang Xi's meaning was very clear. Self-examination and self-correction, the teachings that Moon gave to the current Dean of the Martial Soul Department several years ago were once again used by Ouyang Xi on Du Weilun.

As Yan Shaozhe's right-hand man, Du Weilun naturally learned some of Yan Shaozhe's calculations, but it was these calculations that almost got him into trouble this time.

Now, Director Du has also become ruthless. He will not care about anyone's feelings this time and will thoroughly clean up the martial soul system!

As for Director Fan Yu, who originally had the highest identity, status, and cultivation in this incident, he was handled by Lin Yi personally.

This is also the first test for Lin Yi to enter the real decision-making level. He can only be considered truly mature if he can do it instead of just saying no.

Lin Yi found Fan Yu alone. Based on his previous impression, Lin Yi thought that Director Fan Yu should be a smart person.

"Director Fan Yu," Lin Yi greeted with a chuckle.

Fan Yu is over 1.8 meters tall, half a head taller than Lin Yi. With his strong and sturdy figure, he is almost twice the size of Lin Yi. However, when Lin Yi stands next to him, his imposing manner is not inferior at all.

"Student Lin Yi, I'm really sorry this time."

"Director Fan Yu, you are too kind."

Lin Yi stopped talking and the atmosphere became quiet for a moment.

This was to put pressure on Fan Yu. Lin Yi came here to deal with Fan Yu, but he lost the initiative when he spoke first.

Obviously, Fan Yu also understood what Lin Yi meant.

When you get beaten, you must stand at attention, and Fanyu's position is very straight.

"Student Lin Yi, you've come to me because the academy has decided what to do with me. Tell me what the punishment is. I'll accept it no matter what it is."

Lin Yi smiled lightly, "The academy has given me the right to deal with you."

Fan Yu's expression changed, but then quickly returned to normal. "I see. That's how it should be. I was the one who made the mistake first, and it was Lin Yi who was hurt. It's only right for Lin Yi to deal with me."

Fan Yu admitted his mistake quickly and with a very proper attitude.

Lin Yi guessed correctly, Director Fan Yu was indeed a smart man.

Now it depends on Director Fan Yu’s acting skills.

"Director Fan Yu, Zhou Yi is definitely not going to be saved."

Fan Yu's face was calm. He knew that Zhou Yi could not protect him. He knew it when he took action before. Moreover, when Zhou Yi was like a ghost at that time, Fan Yu felt that his feelings for Zhou Yi were just ordinary.

Moreover, Lin Yi said that Zhou Yi could not be saved, which means that he, Fan Yu, could be saved?

"Student Lin Yi, I know that Zhou Yi made a serious mistake and deserves to be punished. I blame myself for being too busy and not keeping an eye on her. I also bear a great responsibility for her doing such a mistake."

As he spoke, the burly man's eyes filled with tears. "It's me. I feel guilty about the academy's training, about Dean Qian's cultivation, and about Vice Dean Lin. I feel guilty for the respect he showed me before!"

"My sins are grave, and I should have died to atone for them. However, the academy's Soul Guidance Department is booming and needs people. This is where my hard work and dedication are. Classmate Lin Yi, I don't expect you to forgive me, but I only ask that you spare my life so that I can contribute more to the academy and the Soul Guidance Department!"

"I don't want the position of director, nor do I want any status. I just want to be a part of Shrek and burn my life for the academy!"

"Student Lin Yi, please agree to my last request. Please!"

Fan Yu took a step back and bowed deeply to Lin Yi, with his body almost bent in half. It was hard to imagine how he could maintain such a posture with such a strong body.
