"Xiaotao!"
"Dai Yueheng! He Caitou!"
"You bastards! What are you doing?!"
"Stop her quickly! Don't let her hurt anyone else!"
"..."
When everyone saw the hundreds of people perish under the black flames released by Ma Xiaotao, they were terrified. Xu Jiawei lost all interest in watching the show and immediately ordered the Title Douluo from the Star Luo Empire to subdue Ma Xiaotao.
Beside them, Dai Hao watched his eldest son burned to death by the flames. His eyes were bloodshot as he glared at Ma Xiaotao, the murderer. Without a moment's hesitation, Dai Hao stomped hard on the ground and, using the force, charged towards Ma Xiaotao.
His second son, Dai Huabin, had already become a cripple in a way. Now, his eldest son had been killed before his eyes. How could Dai Hao maintain the composure of the White Tiger Duke?
Even knowing that Ma Xiaotao was a genius from Shrek's inner court, Dai Hao would absolutely not let her go!
Xuan Zi was about to go crazy. In an instant, he directly entered his Martial Soul True Body state and launched a frenzied attack towards Jing Hongchen, Crushed Star Douluo, and Giant Hammer Douluo, hoping to save Ma Xiaotao first.
If Ma Xiaotao continued to kill, she would truly be doomed!
And why hadn't Old Mu come to Star Luo City yet? Could it be that he, like himself, had also taken a detour?
"Get out of my way!!!"
In his Godly Taotie Bull form, Xuan Zi roared and charged fiercely towards the three.
Unfortunately, his frenzied actions didn't make Jing Hongchen and the others budge. Instead, Wang Yan, Zhou Yi, and Jiang Nannan, who were closest to them, were knocked back uncontrollably by the impact.
Chaos.
This was the best description of the final of this year's Soul Master Academy Exchange Tournament.
The audience desperately tried to escape, pushing and shoving each other, but it caused a massive traffic jam, and very few people managed to escape the area.
Several Title Douluo, along with Dai Hao, were using various methods on the competition stage to try and subdue Ma Xiaotao, but they were unwilling to directly engage with the strange black flames on her body.
Zhang Lexuan and Old Ma also rushed onto the stage immediately, protecting Huo Yuhao, Gu Yuena, and Xue Di behind them. The members of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Tool Academy were not affected.
And at the moment Huo Yuhao dispelled Kyōka Suigetsu, Beibei and Xu Sanshi, who had just destroyed each other's kidneys, finally realized what a foolish thing they had just done.
But before they could leave, they were swept away by a series of explosions, tumbling on the ground.
When Xu Sanshi saw that his goddess, Jiang Nannan, was not being humiliated by Huo Yuhao but instead was blown away by the battle between Xuan Zi and Jing Hongchen, he ignored the excruciating pain in his kidneys. He struggled to his feet and rushed forward to protect her, disregarding everything else.
Dai Huabin watched his fiancée, Zhu Lu, fall into a daze. He still hadn't recovered from the shadows he had seen in the Kyōka Suigetsu environment.
The scene of Huo Yuhao embracing Zhu Lu had cast a huge shadow over Dai Huabin's fragile heart.
Even Huo Yuhao was somewhat taken aback after seeing how this Soul Master Tournament had suddenly devolved into this situation.
Although he had orchestrated it all, Ma Xiaotao and Xuan Zi were perhaps a bit too cooperative, weren't they?
He'd expected some complications, and Huo Yuhao had even prepared countermeasures for various contingencies. But in the end, he hadn't needed to use any of them?
Ma Xiaotao had blown herself up, and Xuan Zi, even until the very end, hadn't chosen to let Shrek Academy forfeit? It was just a competition; was it really necessary to be so reckless?
It was a pity for the ordinary spectators killed indiscriminately by Ma Xiaotao; they were the most innocent in this incident.
Huo Yuhao didn't deny that he bore some responsibility. However, besides him, a more significant reason was that Shrek Academy had clearly known that Ma Xiaotao would be an unstable factor due to her Evil Fire problem, yet still insisted on letting her participate in the Soul Master Tournament. And Xuan Zi, incredibly stubborn, gritted his teeth until the last moment, unwilling to give up the championship.
In addition, the Star Luo Empire's referees and other personnel hadn't subdued the out-of-control Ma Xiaotao immediately, which ultimately led to this situation.
This time, not only would Shrek Academy be ruined, but the Star Luo Empire would also lose face and be utterly disgraced.
As Huo Yuhao stood behind Zhang Lexuan, observing this drama, those few Star Luo Empire Enshrinement Elders successfully subdued Ma Xiaotao.
Although a villain was three times stronger, Ma Xiaotao was, in the end, only a Soul Emperor. With so many Title Douluo personally intervening, if they couldn't deal with one Ma Xiaotao, then the Star Luo Empire might as well salute the Sun Moon Empire with a military salute and surrender.
After Ma Xiaotao was subdued, Xuan Zi couldn't hold on for long either.
It wasn't just Jing Hongchen, the Crushed Star Douluo, and the Giant Hammer Douluo who were dealing with Xuan Zi.
Granny Man Yi and the other Title Douluo saw that Xuan Zi had lost his mind. Of course, they couldn't let him continue to wreak havoc here. After all, these were all buildings of the Star Luo Empire, and they would all need to be repaired with gold soul coins.
After Xuan Zi was subdued, he automatically dismissed his Martial Soul True Body, but he was still panting like an ox as he stared fixedly at Jing Hongchen, roaring with a voice filled with boundless anger and hatred.
"Old toad! I will kill you! You damn bastard!"
In Xuan Zi's view, if Jing Hongchen hadn't been obstructing him, preventing him from entering the competition arena and knocking out Ma Xiaotao, none of this would have happened.
If that had been the case, Dai Yueheng and He Caitou wouldn't have died, Ma Xiaotao's Evil Fire wouldn't have been exposed, and even Beibei and Xu Sanshi wouldn't have ended up like Dai Huabin, completely losing the most fundamental and essential ability of a man!
Beibei was Old Mu's only descendant. Now that this had happened, how was he going to explain it to Old Mu!
Thinking about the fact that he would soon have to face Old Mu, Xuan Zi couldn't help but burst into tears.
Looking at the sobbing Xuan Zi, Jing Hongchen felt not a shred of pity. He spoke the coldest words in the gentlest tone.
"Xuan Zi, don't shirk responsibility. The reason this situation occurred is all because of you!"
"If it weren't for your stubbornness, insisting that Shrek's contestants win the championship at all costs, would they have ended up like this?"
"Even if you had conceded on behalf of Shrek Academy just now, the situation would absolutely not have escalated to this point! It's all because of you!"
Xuan Zi's body trembled. He wanted to retort, but under the gazes of Jing Hongchen and the others, he couldn't utter a word.
However, just then, a cold voice, laced with intense hatred, suddenly rang out, causing Xuan Zi's pupils to widen dramatically, his heart instantly filled with fear.
Leng Qiuyu looked at the audience still pushing and shoving, trying to escape, at the chaotic scene, at Ma Xiaotao, suppressed on the ground and unable to move by a Title Douluo, and at Xuan Zi, restrained by Jing Hongchen and several Title Douluos. She took a deep breath and shouted.
"My name is Leng Qiuyu! I'm from the Extreme North, a Soul Saint with ice attribute! Now, I'm going to expose the true face of Shrek Academy! I will let the entire continent know the real nature of the so-called number one academy!"
Regarding He Caitou, I wrote his death in the writing software, but forgot to modify it in the background. My bad.
It's been corrected now.
