"And we at Shrek Academy can also help you rebuild the Tang Sect. After all, you see, we even stuffed such an outstanding Bei Bei into your Tang Sect just to let him assist you."

"I appreciate your kindness. But I would rather stay here. As for the Tang Sect, it has nothing to do with me anymore."

Tang Ya spoke slowly, emphasizing her tone.

In fact, she still wanted to save face for Shrek Academy at this moment.

After all, no matter what, after her family was wiped out, Shrek Academy was the only one willing to take her in and give her a shelter.

Although for Shrek Academy, that was not even a piece of cake.

But she still remembers this kindness.

"Tang Ya!"

Xuan Zi called her with a louder voice, which had already covered up the somewhat panicked voice of Bei Bei who had rushed over.

“Tang Ya, don’t forget how you entered Shrek Academy. Don’t forget what kind of connection you have with Shrek Academy. How can you just leave like that?”

Although Xuan Zi did not say it explicitly, his tone and eyes were accusing Tang Ya of being ungrateful.

"Do you have to say this in public?"

Tang Ya spoke in a low voice, her head lowered, her eyes unclear.

Xuan Zi, however, thought that she just said that because she remembered the kindness they showed her in the past, and his attitude softened.

"There are too many people here, so let's go to a place where there are no people, just people from our two colleges together."

Xuan Zi originally felt pity for Tang Ya, but he didn't expect that this bit of pity would be shown to them.

"Xiao Ya, what you meant just now was that you are willing to go back to Shrek Academy with us, right?" As soon as they entered the closed room, Bei Bei asked impatiently.

He really can't live without Tang Ya.

At the beginning, he came to Tang Ya just because of the order of his ancestor Moon, and he just regarded it as a task to be completed. But he didn't expect that he would be the first one to fall in love during their relationship, and he lost miserably.

At this moment, he showed a happy expression just because Tang Ya showed a little bit of relaxation.

The next moment, Tang Ya's words were like a bucket of cold water poured down on him.

"No."

"Xiaoya, what did you say? I can't hear you clearly..."

Seeing that he didn't hear clearly, Tang Ya repeated it again.

"I said no. I have never thought about going back to Shrek Academy. I haven't thought about it before, I haven't thought about it now, and I won't think about it in the future."

This time, Tang Ya’s rejection was very thorough.

Beibei's face turned pale and Xuanzi's face turned black.

"Tang Ya, are you going to be ungrateful? Don't forget the kindness Shrek Academy has shown you, and the relationship between the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy."

Xuan Zi felt humiliated and was furious, so naturally he was not polite in his words, and his tone was full of questioning.

"So, Elder Xuan knew that there was a relationship between the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy. I thought that relationship had been severed long ago. Otherwise, why didn't anyone from Shrek Academy lend us a helping hand back then?"

"Don't say that your Shrek Academy is too famous. You are being watched by countless eyes and can't just do anything. If you can't help openly, can't you help secretly?"

"Oh, you won't choose to help secretly, because this favor will not be known to the world, and your Shrek Academy will not be able to maintain a good image to the outside world, and you won't be able to repay the favor."

Tang Ya seldom says so much and so profoundly.

So much so that Beibei didn't react at all. Later, after she reacted, all that was left in her mind was praise. She is indeed a love-brained person.

However, Xuan Zi and other people from Shrek Academy only felt angry after hearing Tang Ya's words.

"You blame us at Shrek Academy because of what happened back then!"

It took Xuanzi a while to utter these words.

Tang Ya followed his words and said, "Shouldn't I blame you?"

"The ancestors of the Tang Sect can also be considered as the ancestors of your Shrek Academy. When the Tang Sect was facing life and death, it asked you for help. You also have to consider your reputation and influence."

"Ever since the Tang Sect began to weaken, the number of admission lists allocated to the Tang Sect has become smaller and smaller. At the lowest point, it has been reduced to the last one. In the three eastern countries, any ordinary city has more lists than me."

It was during that time of misfortune that Tang Ya, at a very young age, saw clearly the fickleness of human nature.

But she knew that she was really too weak.

Therefore, there is really not much she can do, and practicing hard is one of them.

"You really blame the academy, but you don't understand how difficult it is for the academy. Sigh——"

Xuan Zi sighed deeply, thinking in his heart that it would be impossible to bring Tang Ya back to Shrek Academy using ordinary methods.

Moreover, if you take it back like this, it will most likely become an untamed abandoned pawn.

I'm afraid we'll have to use some strong measures.

"Xiaoya, the academy wants to help you more and give you more places. But there are only so many places. After giving them all to you, you may not be able to use them all. Isn't that a waste?"

"So, the academy has always intended to select outstanding students and have them join the Tang Sect!"

Chapter 229 Seven Red Soul Rings

What Xuan Zi said was true.

Shrek Academy does intend to select outstanding students to join the Tang Sect.

But Xuan Zi did not tell them what they were thinking or why they did this.

Pushing away outstanding talents does not seem to be a wise choice.

Shrek Academy is so smart that it will not do anything that is not beneficial to itself.

But Tang Ya uncovered their secrets.

"You did this because you want the blueprints of our Tang Sect's hidden weapons. Soul guides are developing at a high speed, and you can't keep up with the progress of Sun and Moon. And then I suddenly thought that we could combine Tang Sect's hidden weapons with soul guides, so that your soul guide system can be completely alive and no longer inferior to the Sun and Moon Empire."

Tang Ya spoke very quickly because she was worried about being interrupted.

Xuan Zi wanted to interrupt, but Tang Ya spoke very quickly and Jing Hongchen stared at her eagerly.

It seems like he is saying, if you dare to touch my students, I will fight you to the death.

Xuan Zi was so angry that his face turned black and he had a heart attack. He couldn't utter a word for a long time, but Tang Ya spoke again.

"No, I think I thought too badly of you. If you want to help the Tang Sect, you can still have a good reputation of taking care of me, a descendant of the Tang Sect, and supporting the Tang Sect."

"After all, your Shrek Academy is the dawn of righteousness."

Obviously Tang Ya's tone was right, and what she said was praising Shrek Academy.

But to the ears of the Shrek Academy students, they always felt unpleasant.

Beibei even called out to Tang Ya again, with some disapproval in his voice.

"Xiaoya."

Beibei shook his head, his eyes full of worry. He was worried that Tang Ya would say something wrong, anger Xuan Zi, and get hurt by Xuan Zi.

Xuan Zi is too powerful, so even if he wants to save Tang Ya, he will be powerless.

So he wanted Tang Ya to stop talking, soften her attitude, or apologize to Xuan Zi.

"Beibei, don't talk."

Xuanzi scolded Beibei, and was also a bit angry.

Because he thought that he came to find Tang Ya more for Bei Bei. But he didn't expect to be humiliated by Tang Ya, also because of Bei Bei.

"You left Shrek Academy because the treatment was not good enough. I wanted to bring you back to Shrek Academy with good intentions, and I was willing to give you better treatment."

"I didn't expect you to be so ungrateful and even look down on and slander Shrek Academy. How unreasonable! It's simply outrageous! I should have killed you right here. But for the sake of the Tang Sect's ancestors, I can spare your life."

“Since you look down on Shrek Academy so much, then don’t bother with Shrek Academy again. I can let this matter go, but if I see you slandering Shrek Academy again next time, I will kill you without mercy.”

Xuanzi spoke his long speech slowly and emphasized his tone, so he didn't have to worry about being interrupted. Under his pressure, few people interrupted him.

"What you said is really harsh. You have taken all the benefits. You are perfect and have done nothing wrong. Is it our fault?"

After Xuan Zi finished speaking, Xiao Hongchen spoke sarcastically.

"I don't know how big of a prison Shrek Academy is. Once you're in, you can't get out? If the place is not good, students can't drop out or leave. They'll either be killed or slandered. Anyway, they're all ungrateful. You guys are not at fault at all?"

"Why can't students stay at your school? You should think about your own problems first, so that you can keep the students, instead of putting the blame on them."

Xiao Hongchen was not only speaking up for Tang Ya, but also for Ming Wei of the past.

It was also because of Ming Wei that Xiao Hongchen hated Shrek Academy so much. Facing the peerless strongman Xuan Zi, he had the courage to say such sarcastic words.

The two sides had a big argument, each thought they were right, and neither could convince the other. In the end, they parted unhappily.

Before parting, Jing Hongchen adjusted his soul guide and said casually.

"I don't have much else here, but I have a lot of long-range soul guides. It should be very easy to kill a few soul emperors and soul kings silently from a distance."

After hearing Jing Hongchen's words, Xuan Zi walked faster and his face became even more sullen.

Because he was threatened.

Jing Hongchen seemed to be saying that he had a lot of soul guides on him, but in fact he was threatening Shrek Academy not to say anything that shouldn't be said, otherwise he would disregard his status and attack the Shrek participating students.

The participating students from Shrek Academy all happen to have the cultivation level of Soul Emperor and Soul King.

*

Mingwei and Jincan have not yet fully recovered and are unable to fully exert their full strength.

However, in the early stages of the game, they don't need to exert their full strength.

Because many of the opponents we met were not strong.

For example, in today’s match, Mingwei’s Pharmacist Valley faced off against a sect from the Qingmu Sect.

"One Soul Emperor and six Soul Kings? This level of strength is really not enough!"

Mingwei, who said it was not good enough, still became the first person to play in the individual elimination round.

Although there is a threshold for the Continental Elite High-level Soul Master Competition this time, only teams with all Soul Master members or above can register, but teams with all Soul Master members will only be cannon fodder in this competition.

When Qingmu Zong saw the seven blood-red soul rings under Mingwei's feet, his defense was broken.

"Seven rings! You are a Soul Sage, how is this possible? How old are you!"

"They are all hundred thousand year spirit rings. This is impossible. If you are faking it, make it look more real!"

"How could there be a seven-ringed Soul Saint with all 100,000-year soul rings? Not to mention in this kind of competition, it's impossible for him to exist in the entire Douluo Continent."

No one in Qingmu Sect believed that Mingwei's spirit ring was real. They all thought it was some kind of special spirit skill. The seven contestants also believed it, so they were not afraid before the battle, but were full of fighting spirit.

"Let me try this Seven-ring Soul Saint."

The number one of Qingmu Sect said this, his eyes full of arrogance, and he emphasized the words "Seven-ring Soul Saint" especially.

His soul power is at level 57, and his martial soul is a vine. He looks like a control-type soul master.

"Third soul skill, Thousand Tree Prisoner."

Countless vines burrowed into the ground, transforming into layer upon layer of thorny cages, surrounding Mingwei completely. The fourth spirit ring under the soul master's feet immediately lit up, and the vines transformed into sharp arrows, shooting towards the cage.

And Ming Wei said: "Jiuli Pot, second soul skill, summoning."

"The Firebird Bifang."

The Bifang bird, whose attribute was fire, flew out of the Jiuli pot with a large amount of flames. In an instant, it burned all the vines and arrows.

"Impossible! My martial spirit is fire-resistant. How can this thing burn my vines?"

The soul master of Qingmu Sect was full of disbelief and doubted that he no longer had the ability to be immune to fire.

Ever since the first plant-type soul master who was immune to both water and fire appeared ten thousand years ago, many talented plant-type soul masters have devoted themselves to training their fire and water immunity abilities.

Of course he is no exception.

Chapter 230 How shameless!

How could he know that the flame on Bifang's body was not an ordinary flame, its name was "Erhu Fire".

It is a flame that is easy to burn but difficult to extinguish.
