I really am a Titled Douluo

Just like that, Shrek Academy had weathered the storm of the Soul cannonball attack...

Inside the Sea God's Pavilion!

The person seated in the main seat was no longer Yun Ming, the Sea God Pavilion Master, but rather a Sky-Piercing Spear emitting a silver radiance!

Beside it, Ya Li's gaze remained fixated on it, as if she had endless words to say...

Turbid World couldn't help but speak, "Elder Ya Li, have you been well during this time?"

Over the course of several months, Ya Li had stayed in the Sea God's Pavilion alongside the spear that Yun Ming had transformed into, never leaving.

Ya Li came back to her senses and softly said, "Yes, thank you for the concern of all the Elders, I'm alright now!"

She had indeed come to terms with it. Yun Ming had sacrificed himself for the entirety of Shrek City...

Thus, she too should inherit his will and continue to protect this place worth sacrificing everything for!

Feng Wu Yu slightly nodded, "Yes, it's good that Elder Ya Li has come to terms with it. We too are deeply pained by the Pavilion Master's sacrifice, but regardless, the academy must continue to move forward!"

Long Yeyue also took a deep breath, "Yes, we must not let Yun Ming's sacrifice be in vain. Of course, until a new Sea God Pavilion Master is elected, that position belongs only to him!"

Cai Yue'er echoed, "That's right, we have all seen the efforts the Pavilion Master made for the academy! We will remember them forever!"

Ya Li nodded slightly, "I understand all this, it's just hard to adapt all at once. Alright, Elder Cai, please lead the meeting!"

While Yun Ming was still alive, Cai Yue'er already handled the Sea God's Pavilion meetings, so naturally, it remained the same.

Upon seeing this, Cai Yue'er stood up with a solemn expression, "First, from the last attack launched by the Holy Spirit Cult, we know that even though the Holy Spirit Cult has moved to Xingluo Land, their influence still spreads among various powers!"

"Especially from the Douluo Federation side! To help the Holy Spirit Cult steal a Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shell, this definitely couldn't be done by just a few individuals!"

Turbid World nodded in agreement, "Elder Cai is right! There are only three Twelfth-Grade Soul Guidance Shells on the whole Continent, all managed by the Douluo Federation. Being able to steal one under such strict surveillance indicates deep internal infiltration!"

Feng Wu Yu continued, "Because of this, the Battle God Hall's Hall Master Chen Xinjie is extremely angered, and has ordered a thorough investigation of every high-level official in the federation. Elder Long should know this best!"

Long Yeyue maintained her composure and said, "Yes, at the very moment of the incident, Chen Xinjie sent Guan Yue to express apologies and promised to capture those involved in the attack!"

Lan Muzi cautiously said, "That said, I remember that Elder Long and Chen Xinjie seem to have a complication..."

Turbid World covered his mouth with his hand and coughed, "Ahem… let's not talk about that!"

Lan Muzi immediately shut his mouth, knowing he had said something he shouldn't have!

Although he and Tang Yinmeng were elders of Sea God's Pavilion, they were the youngest in seniority, so they naturally had to maintain respect for the other elders!

Long Yeyue waved her hand, "It doesn't matter, indeed I had some complications with him, but ever since I met that 'scoundrel'..."

Everyone knew well that though she called her husband, the previous Sea God Pavilion Master, Elder Bei, a 'scoundrel', it was actually a term of endearment!

She stopped midway, realizing her words had strayed off the meeting's topic, and immediately closed her mouth without mentioning it again!

Cai Yue'er tactfully took over the conversation, "Beside that, there's the matter of inner court students like Tang Wulin and others. Although their growth is rapid, it's still far from sufficient."

"To survive the upcoming great war, we must find a way to enhance their strength, to at least be able to stand on their own!"

...

Academy!

Tang Wulin found Xu Sheng and looked at him hopefully, asking, "Teacher Xu! For this mission to explore the Icefire Polarized Eyes, could you accompany us?"

"After all, Academy President Cai did not say that the elders couldn't accompany us on this mission!"

Xu Sheng smiled faintly, "I'm sorry, Little Wulin, I have some matters to attend to later, but as for now, President Cai has already taken this into account, so he dispatched Teacher Wu ahead of time!"

Tang Wulin was momentarily stunned and asked incredulously, "Teacher Wu?"

If it weren't mentioned, he would have almost forgotten such a person existed!

Although it sounded a bit harsh, it was the truth!

Ever since Wu Changkong returned to Shrek Academy, he had practically become an elusive figure, causing him to lack presence in the hearts of the students!

Xu Sheng confirmed, "Yes, Teacher Wu has now successfully advanced to the Soul Douluo and should have enough strength to protect you all!"

Tang Wulin mused, "I see..."

Having a Soul Douluo level powerhouse as reinforcement meant that this trip would have some assurance!

Of course, he still hoped Xu Sheng could accompany them, especially since even a member of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Holy Spirit Cult, the Dark Hummingbird, had been defeated by him in a single move!

Xu Sheng seemed to recall something and casually reminded, "Little Wulin, if you have time, you should visit Demon Island!"

Considering the time, those Old Demons should soon disappear, and they had, after all, taught Tang Wulin and his group!

Despite some confusion, Tang Wulin instinctively replied, "I understand, Teacher Xu, I'll visit when I have time!"

After Tang Wulin left, Xu Sheng's shoulder was suddenly patted, and an ethereal voice called out, "Xu Sheng!"

Turning his head, Xu Sheng was surprised to see the woman with long white hair and a delicate face, "Shen Yi? Have you finished your closed-door cultivation?"

Shen Yi replied with a wistful tone, "Yes, thanks to your rejection at the Sea God's Pavilion matchmaking event, I devoted myself entirely to cultivation! My soul power rank has reached that of an Eighty-Fifth Rank Soul Douluo!"

After such a long seclusion, she had completely come to terms with reality.

Since she could not advance further with Xu Sheng to become lifelong partners, they should continue as friends, as before!

Xu Sheng spoke with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry, Shen Yi, I didn't intend to do that; I just wanted to make things clear!"

The only thing that made him feel guilty since coming to the Lower Realm was Shen Yi!

Shen Yi smiled softly, "It's okay, perhaps I was a bit stubborn back then, but I've come to terms with it now!"

Xu Sheng nodded slightly, "It's good that you've come to terms, but as for the matter of Pavilion Master..."

Her expression dimmed slightly, "The teacher has already told me."

She had been in closed-door cultivation until a few days ago when she finally learned about the recent events at Shrek Academy!

She then shook her head, dispelling her gloomy mood, "Let's not talk about these sad things today. If the Pavilion Master were still here, he'd probably feel the same!"

Even Yun Ming's wife, Elder Ya'li, had recovered from her grief!

What reason did they have not to accept it?

Xu Sheng did not dwell further on the subject, "Well, what do you plan to do next?"
