In the Divine Realm, seeing this scene before him, Ma Hongjun couldn't help asking,
"Although Lin Feng's actions are a good thing for the Douluo Continent, isn't the degree of his intervention a bit too much? Does this... count as violating the rules of the Divine Realm?"
Hearing this, Tang San couldn't help nodding inwardly. What Ma Hongjun said happened to be what he was thinking as well.
The extent of Lin Feng's intervention in the Douluo Continent was far more serious than his own.
At most, he, Tang San, plotted for a Child of Destiny, secretly laid down some pieces, and guided the general trend of development.
However, what Lin Feng was plotting was not just the Child of Destiny, but the entire Douluo Continent.
Now that Lin Feng had made such a move, the Power Of Faith from the entire Douluo Continent toward that Sky Shrek Academy would probably become quite terrifying, right?
Tang San's brows knitted slightly.
The existence of the Douluo God Realm fundamentally relied on the Power Of Faith of the Douluo Continent. That was the Foundation of the Divine Realm's existence and an important source for the gods to maintain their God Positions and acquire divine force.
Lin Feng's move could be said to have directly seized the Power Of Faith of the Divine Realm.
This thought surged in Tang San's heart, and his gaze quietly fell on the God of Destruction aside.
He wanted to see if the God of Destruction would make any statement.
However, the God of Destruction still didn't say a word, his expression without the slightest ripple, as if everything happening in the light screen had nothing to do with him.
Tang San's teeth clenched slightly.
This God of Destruction was always very energetic when targeting him on ordinary days, dragging out all kinds of rules and frameworks to suppress people.
But what about now? Regarding this major event concerning the Power Of Faith of the Divine Realm, he remained silent instead, looking like he didn't want to interfere.
Tang San secretly gnashed his teeth.
It was truly a misfortune for the Divine Realm to have such a God King.
Of course, since the God of Destruction said nothing, it was not appropriate for Tang San to say much more at this time.
After all, he had already emphasized Lin Feng's interference in the Lower Realm at the very beginning, and with Ma Hongjun bringing it up again now, it was equivalent to him having already stated his position.
And since the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life had never stated their position, it meant that they didn't care.
This would not do. As members of the God Realm Committee, they must care; not caring was dereliction of duty.
Tang San's gaze fell back onto the light screen. He planned to wait a bit longer, and when things worsened a bit more, he would speak out to accuse the God of Destruction.
At that time, reason would be on his side.
On the Douluo Continent, Long Xiaoyao also saw the scene where Nangong Wan turned into a bloody mist, and a trace of fatigue inevitably appeared on his face.
After a moment, he slowly stood up, and then walked directly outside the hall.
Meanwhile, Supreme Patriarch Ye Xishui also noticed Long Xiaoyao's actions, but she didn't say much. Now, regardless of what Long Xiaoyao was doing, she had to complete her own affairs, with her attention entirely focused on her Death God Tower.
After Long Xiaoyao walked out, his figure turned into a gray beam of light in the night sky, flying toward the direction of the Counterfeit Shrek Academy.
Not long after, Long Xiaoyao arrived beneath the Golden Ancient Tree of the Counterfeit Shrek Academy.
The members of Shrek Academy couldn't help being stunned when they saw Long Xiaoyao appear.
Sweeping across the crowd, a flash of puzzlement crossed Long Xiaoyao's eyes. How come the once top academy of the Douluo Continent was now left with only so few people? Aside from the Sea Gods Pavilion Elders of Shrek Academy, there were fewer than ten people left.
Standing in the crowd, Elder Song froze the moment she saw Long Xiaoyao. A look of astonishment flashed across her aged face, which quickly turned into vigilance.
As a person of the same generation as Xuan Zi, she naturally recognized Long Xiaoyao.
"Your Excellency Dragon Emperor Douluo, what is your intention in coming here?"
Elder Song's voice carried obvious vigilance, her experienced eyes staring fixedly at Long Xiaoyao while Spirit Power secretly surged around her, ready to strike at any time.
Long Xiaoyao directly ignored Elder Song beside him and cast his gaze onto Bei Bei. The last time he came, he had already recognized Bei Bei.
"I have come this time to return Mu En's belongings."
Hearing this, Bei Bei couldn't help being stunned.
"Ancestor Mu's belongings?"
Long Xiaoyao nodded, then stretched out his withered hand. Following that, a beam of light emerged from his Storage Soul Tool, transforming into a glass bottle when it landed in Long Xiaoyao's palm. Inside the bottle was a cherry-sized Medicinal Pill, plump and round all over, emitting a faint golden light. At a glance, one could tell it was by no means an ordinary item.
"This is a dragon core."
"It was given to me by Mu En before his death. He originally wanted me to give this item to you to consume at a suitable opportunity in the future."
He paused, his gaze falling on Bei Bei's youthful face.
"Consuming this dragon core requires the body to have completely no resistance, meaning it can only be consumed when on the verge of death. Fearing that no one would take care of you after he left, Mu En entrusted this item to me."
Upon hearing these words, Bei Bei remained silent, his gaze falling solely on the dragon core. Had his Ancestor Mu planned out his future even after death?
But thinking of the current Shrek Academy, Bei Bei couldn't help feeling a wave of desolation in his heart. Shrek Academy in Mu En's hands could be said to be quite formidable, but when Shrek Academy fell into his own hands, it was no longer so.
Yan Shaozhe's purpose in having Director Du Weilun lead everyone away a few days ago was said to be to choose a new location to rebuild Shrek Academy, but in reality, it was to let them make their own choices—whether to continue as people of Shrek Academy or leave then and there.
Faced with such a miserable scene, most people naturally chose to leave.
Bei Bei didn't blame them either. After all... staying at Shrek Academy as it was now was not a good thing for their future.
Long Xiaoyao continued to speak,
"However, now, I don't have that much time left."
"I am an Evil Soul Master, and I will die soon, so I am returning this item in advance."
He handed that dragon core to Bei Bei.
"Apologize to Mu En at his grave for me."
"Just say... I, Long Xiaoyao, have failed him."
When Bei Bei took the dragon core, his fingertips trembled slightly. Clenching the dragon core in his palm, Bei Bei looked at the old man before him with a rather complicated expression.
Long Xiaoyao was an Evil Soul Master, and originally both sides should have been in a hostile relationship. Yet, it was precisely such an Evil Soul Master who fulfilled Mu En's pre-death promise.
In contrast, Xuan Zi...
Bei Bei's lips moved slightly, and finally he uttered two words:
"Thank you."
Long Xiaoyao nodded slightly and said nothing more. He turned around, his figure rising slowly, and flew into the night sky.
After Long Xiaoyao left, Yan Shaozhe frowned on the side and hesitated before speaking,
"Long Xiaoyao is an Evil Soul Master after all. Could there be a problem with this dragon core?"
Elder Song shook her head and said,
"This item is indeed a dragon core. I didn't expect that Elder Mu would actually hand this item over to Long Xiaoyao before his death."
"However... if this item hadn't been given to Long Xiaoyao, it probably would have fallen into Xuan Zi's hands."
Mentioning Xuan Zi, everyone's expressions changed. That former Gluttonous Douluo had now embarked on a completely different path.
Everyone couldn't help wearing faces filled with emotion, and no one spoke again.
Meanwhile, on the competition stage, the Evil Soul Masters willing to step up were becoming fewer and fewer.
Those who previously held a do-or-die mindset were almost all dead. The remaining ones were either completely crushed by fear or were secretly praying that their turn wouldn't come.
After waiting for a long time, no one else stepped onto the competition stage.
Standing in the center of the stage, Lin Feng swept his gaze across the silent Evil Soul Masters before the light screen, a faint smile curving the corners of his mouth.
"Are there no Evil Soul Masters below the Super Douluo level willing to challenge?"
Hearing these words, the crowd of Evil Soul Masters trembled even more violently, thinking to themselves that he wouldn't randomly select people, right?
At the very next moment, Lin Feng slowly smiled and said,
"Then, this segment of the competition shall end."
As his voice fell, in every corner of the Douluo Continent, those Evil Soul Masters whose cultivation was below the Super Douluo level suddenly stiffened and all turned into bloody mist.
And this scene appeared in the eyes of everyone; it could be said to be quite shocking.
The Evil Soul Masters below the Super Douluo level actually just died like this?
