As the man continued to narrate, Bibi Dong's fair face began to contort, her brows furrowed, and raging anger burned in her heart.
Gradually, an extremely strong killing intent emanated from Bibi Dong's body. The man reporting below immediately felt a strong sense of danger. He abruptly stopped his report, knelt directly on the ground, and while kowtowing, loudly begged for mercy: "Supreme Pontiff, spare my life! Supreme Pontiff, spare my life…"
The miserable pleas for mercy brought Bibi Dong back to her senses. Bibi Dong coldly glanced at him, and her killing intent dissipated.
"You may leave first!" Bibi Dong said coldly.
Upon hearing this, the man was as if joy had descended from the heavens. He stumbled and retreated, not caring about anything else.
"Elder Jú!" Bibi Dong's icy voice rang out again.
A man in brocade robes not far away bowed and respectfully said, "Your Holiness the Supreme Pontiff, your subordinate is here!"
"Go to Heaven Dou and help me kill Lin Chen. I want him to wish for death but not be able to die!" Bibi Dong said through gritted teeth.
Feeling Bibi Dong's strong killing intent, Jú Yuè Guān trembled. He did not hesitate at all and respectfully said, "Jú Yuè Guān accepts the order!"
With that, Jú Yuè Guān turned and walked out of the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
After he was far from the Supreme Pontiff Palace, Jú Yuè Guān finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, a dark figure suddenly emerged from the void.
Jú Yuè Guān was startled and loudly said, "Old Ghost, you scared me to death!"
Jú and Ghost, the two Titled Douluo, had a deep bond, like a pair of good friends, long inseparable.
"What's wrong with you? Why do you look so bad?" Ghost Douluo asked in confusion. He had always appeared in this manner, but he had never scared Jú Yuè Guān before. This time, however, was an exception. Based on his understanding of Jú Yuè Guān, something must have happened.
Jú Yuè Guān sighed softly and recounted everything that had happened earlier.
"Your mission this time might not be so easy to complete!" Ghost Douluo said, his brows slightly furrowed, and a hint of sympathy in his eyes.
"I know, it's hard to kill Lin Chen with his current status!" Jú Yuè Guān sighed.
Ghost Douluo said, "How about I go with you?"
Jú Yuè Guān glanced at him and asked curiously, "Is your mission complete?"
Ghost Douluo nodded slightly. Seeing this, Jú Yuè Guān's face broke into a smile and he said excitedly, "That's great! With your help, I have enough confidence to complete this mission!"
"Alright, wait for me. I'll go report back first!" Ghost Douluo said with a smile.
Outside Soto City, in the dilapidated Shrek Academy, Flender was delighted upon hearing the news of Heaven Dou Royal Academy's reform.
Tang San's poisoning could not be resolved in the short term. Not only was Tang Hao nowhere to be found, but even if Tang Hao did appear, Shrek Academy would still be held accountable.
This matter had been bothering Flender. Yu Xiaogang had indeed crippled Clear Sky Douluo's son. Once Tang Hao learned of this, even with Tang San's forgiveness, Yu Xiaogang would have a hard time. Although the Clear Sky Sect was closed off, Flender still understood the Tang Clan's domineering nature. Now that something had happened to Tang San at Shrek Academy, not only Yu Xiaogang but even Shrek Academy would be implicated.
Currently, Heaven Dou Royal Academy had been renamed Tianwen Academy. Heaven Dou Royal Academy originally only recruited nobles, but now commoners could also attend, which meant that Tianwen Academy would gain a large number of new students.
With a significant increase in students, but limited teaching staff, wasn't this their opportunity?
Shrek Academy lacked everything but teachers. Not to mention that he and Zhao Wuji had Spirit Saint cultivation, the other teachers were all genuine Spirit Emperors.
With such qualifications, applying for a teaching position at Tianwen Academy might even lead to good treatment.
Even if it wasn't about using someone else's resources, arranging a good home for his old colleagues, Tianwen Academy was a very good choice.
Similarly, their group would also have their own backing. If Tang Hao came in the future, they wouldn't need to worry, as he would have to consider the Tiandou Royal Family's face to some extent.
On the training ground, Flender paced back and forth. After a while, all the teachers and students of Shrek Academy gathered on the training ground.
Seeing that everyone was present, Flender cleared his throat and said, "Has everyone heard about the Heaven Dou Royal Academy recently?"
Ma Hongjun and Oscar nodded, while the others looked at Flender, puzzled.
Flender smiled and said, "Everyone should know that our Shrek Academy's teaching staff is limited. Now that Tianwen Academy is open to commoners, this is our opportunity. I have decided to disband Shrek Academy starting today. We will all go to Tianwen Academy. I believe that under the leadership of Grandmaster Lin Chen, Tianwen Academy will definitely help everyone reach a higher level!"
"Whoa…" Flender's words caused an uproar.
Ma Hongjun said excitedly, "Teacher, I'm not going. I'll just follow you. Wherever you go, I'll go!"
Oscar nodded and said seriously, "Yes, Dean, you can't disband Shrek. Shrek Academy was built by your own hands. Can you bear to let it go?"
Dai Mubai said, "Dean, if the academy is short on funds, I can provide some support!"
Tang San was expressionless and said nothing. For him, he didn't care about the future of Shrek Academy. All he thought about now was Xiao Wu.
Ever since Xiao Wu left a letter and disappeared without a word, Tang San had been living in a daze every day. Coupled with his Spirit being poisoned, cultivation no longer had much effect. So Tang San gradually began to give up on himself. Except for cultivating Purple Demon Eye every morning, he no longer actively cultivated at other times.
Compared to the students of Shrek Academy, the few teachers seemed very calm. Obviously, Flender had communicated with them beforehand.
Especially Yu Xiaogang, a faint, almost imperceptible smile surfaced on his old face. The environment of Shrek Academy was indeed not great. Going to Heaven Dou would not only provide a good environment, but might also completely solve the problem of Tang San's Spirit. Using Heaven Dou's resources to cultivate his students, wasn't that using someone else's resources? Why not!
As for his old friend's academy, he didn't care at all. In his opinion, Shrek Academy had no advantages and would eventually fall apart.
Flender looked at the reactions of the few students, and his heart was filled with comfort. It seemed the students were still very emotional, especially Ma Hongjun. He hadn't doted on him for nothing.
Shrek Academy was built by his own hands. It was not only his hard work but also his agreement and memories with his Erlong sister. Unless absolutely necessary, how could he bear to give it up?
