Chapter 83 of the First Person
After saying that, Cai Yue'er returned to her original chair, calmly closing her eyes and waiting for Gu Yue to give in.
Seeing this, Shen Yi could only give the four of them a look, signaling them to wait a moment. Tang Wulin and the other two nodded; their backer hadn't arrived yet, so they would have to suffer a loss and endure it for now.
A smile flashed in Gu Yue's eyes. She bowed on the spot, and her clear voice rang out: "Your Majesty Xuan Yin, please uphold justice."
Upon hearing this title, the trio from the East Sea scratched their heads, completely baffled.
Shen Yi and the other two middle-aged men were startled. Cai Yue'er immediately stood up and looked around warily.
Damn it! What's He Yushu doing here? Isn't he usually staying at home on Seagod Island? And that kid from the Qian Gu family isn't here either, what's he doing here?
"Tsk tsk tsk! Chen Ran's guess was right! Cai Yue'er, Cai Yue'er, how can you be so shameless!"
A middle-aged man dressed in a black robe walked out of the space behind Gu Yue with a smile.
Without giving Cai Yue'er a chance to argue, he lightly punched her with his left fist. *Thud!* Right before everyone's eyes, Cai Yue'er was sent flying by this slow, deliberate punch.
“Fairness comes from strength. I’m so much stronger than you, so it’s fair that I hit you.” He Yushu flashed behind Cai Yue’er and threw another punch, but Cai Yue’er’s figure flew back to the classroom.
Using his spatial powers to teleport to the classroom, He Yushu threw another punch. This time, everyone seemed to see a tortoise-like soul beast, its body shimmering with golden light, roaring as it attacked Cai Yue'er.
Boom! Everyone present, except Gu Yue, swallowed hard as they watched Cai Yue'er being shoved into the ground. The level 95 Cai Yue'er was no different from a ball in that opponent's hands.
"Thank you, Your Majesty Xuan Yin!" Gu Yue bowed to He Yushu again. When Qian Gu Chenran learned that the other party wanted to apply to Shrek Academy, he specifically told Gu Yue that if an old woman made things difficult for her, she should call out the name Xuan Yin.
Just as he expected, Cai Yue'er started causing trouble again.
Chapter 158 The Eternal Sun and Moon Sword
"Yes! You're welcome. After all, it was Chen Ran who specifically asked me to do this, and it was indeed Shrek Academy's fault this time." He Yushu first nodded to Gu Yue, then glanced at the three little ones from the East Sea who were still stunned by the scene just now.
He smiled and looked at Shen Yi, who was also stunned: "Xiao Yi!"
"It's Elder He! What are your orders?" Shen Yi responded immediately after hearing He Yushu call his name.
“This time, it was that crazy woman Cai Yue’er who was in the wrong. I’ll stand up for her and take some resources from her to make up for these students later. If she doesn’t give them to me, I will take matters into my own hands. These students all got full marks in this round. Let them continue with the normal exam.”
After saying that, he disappeared again, leaving behind a group of bewildered people.
Shen Yi's eyes were also filled with confusion. She knew that Elder He and Elder Cai had some friction, but she really didn't expect it. In front of everyone, Elder He actually beat Elder Cai in public, showing no mercy whatsoever.
Moreover, after the fight, he even demanded that Elder Cai pay compensation for the students' emotional distress. Based on Shen Yi's understanding of He Yushu, this Xuan Yin Douluo always kept his word.
Xie Xie nudged Tang Wulin beside him, leaned close to his ear, and spoke with a hint of excitement:
"Boss, don't you think we're about to strike it rich?! That Elder Cai is a level 95 Super Douluo powerhouse. Even if a little bit of resources slips through her fingers and end up in our hands, we'll be making a killing!"
"Huh? Boss! Boss! Why aren't you saying anything, boss?" Xie Xie was also confused when Tang Wulin didn't respond.
Something's not right! Given their boss's greedy nature, shouldn't he be more excited than anyone else at this time? Why isn't he reacting at all?
What he didn't know was that Tang Wulin was completely stunned by Xie Xie's mention of making a fortune.
As the strongest member of the East Sea trio, Tang Wulin had already planned to take the others to find Teacher Wu and explain the situation before making any further plans. At worst, they could apply to the Mingdu Royal Soul Guidance Academy; he remembered his father saying that the academy also had a long history and profound cultural heritage.
But since they've already said they'd compensate them, they could wait. Tang Wulin rubbed his hands together while staring at Shen Yi with shining eyes.
Shen Yi felt Tang Wulin's gaze and was speechless. She walked up to the four of them and gave them a look, signaling them to wait a moment.
She took out her soul communication device and immediately called her master. The situation was a bit complicated, so she had to report it to her teacher.
A moment later, a red streak of light arrived in the examination room. Zhuoshi looked at the wall that had been punched with a large hole and couldn't help but laugh.
He had just learned the whole story from his apprentice. Regarding Cai Yue'er's ordeal, Zhuo Shi only had one word to say: Serves her right!
Who told that crazy woman to dare take her anger out on his disciple, Zhuoshi? Her own weakness, and the fact that Gu Yue didn't take a liking to her, were all her own fault.
The result was that her three grand-disciples were implicated, and they tried to use this to force Gu Yue to submit to her. They hadn't even investigated his background before impulsively deciding to take him as a disciple. Didn't they even consider whether they were worthy?
"Hmph! If it weren't for you, my traitor, wasting my time, how could my men have been bullied by that crazy woman Cai Yue'er?" Zhuo Shi glared fiercely at Wu Changkong, who lowered his head in embarrassment upon hearing this.
Upon seeing their backer arrive, Xu Xiaoyan immediately stepped forward and began her performance. With tears in her eyes, she looked pitifully at Zhuo Shi like an unwanted puppy.
"Grandmaster, you have no idea! While you were away, that Elder Cai Yue'er was bullying us the whole time. We tried to reason with her, but she just said that in this world, only strength is truth..."
With Xu Xiaoyan adding fuel to the fire, Zhuoshi's old face turned red with anger. Outrageous! This was simply too much! Normally, when Cai Yue'er threw a tantrum, he was too magnanimous to bother with her.
And what happened? She actually threatened her own disciples and grand-disciples like that. Her own grand-disciple might have exaggerated a bit, but based on her years of experience, the one who would be unreasonable first was definitely that bitch Cai Yue'er.
"Don't worry, your grandmaster will definitely get justice for you. The three of you are all exceptional little monsters, and that crazy woman Cai Yue'er has no reason to refuse your participation in the exam. Even if you cause trouble at the Sea God Pavilion, she won't have any grounds to stand. Xiao Yi, you take the children and continue with the exam. I'll go to the Sea God Pavilion and have a word with Cai Yue'er."
Shen Yi led the group to the next examination hall, while Zhuo Shi transformed into a red streak of light and flew towards Seagod Island.
If the tiger doesn't roar, Cai Yue'er really thinks he's a pushover. Both are Super Douluo from Shrek Academy, their combat strength is evenly matched. What gives Cai Yue'er the right to treat her grand-disciple like this?
Moreover, her backers are no longer influential! With Yu Shu and the old madman behind her, the three of them together can't defeat Cai Yue'er even if they fight her alone.
A cold glint flashed in Zhuo Shi's eyes. If Cai Yue'er didn't bleed a lot this time, things wouldn't be over so easily.
Meanwhile, inside the Spirit Pagoda headquarters
Within the small space of the Heavenly Treasure Silver Toad, Qian Gu Chen Ran was carefully using his Tai Xu Flame and Zi Wei Heavenly Fire to simultaneously temper the hilt of the sword in front of him.
The Heavenly Treasure Silver Toad sensed the subtle energy emanating from within and nodded in satisfaction: "Croak! Chen Ran, just hold on a little longer and this magic weapon will be finished."
Qian Gu Chen Ran did not answer; he focused even more intently on tempering his sword hilt. After an unknown amount of time, the Void Flame and Purple Star Heavenly Fire that had been swirling around the hilt dissipated, revealing the hilt's original form.
The sword hilt is made entirely of Primordial Black Iron, and its surface is engraved with mysterious and enigmatic sun and moon patterns.
A purple sun totem is carved in the center of the front of the sword hilt, while a silver toad totem carrying a silver moon is carved in the center of the back.
Feeling the faint yearning emanating from the sword hilt, Qian Gu Chen Ran didn't say a word. A dark golden claw sprouted from his left index finger and lightly slashed his right hand, causing blood to immediately flow from the wound.
He raised his right hand to the hilt of the sword, and the hilt excitedly absorbed the blood of Qian Gu Chen Ran. The blood flowed along the sun and moon patterns on the hilt, gradually covering the entire hilt.
The stones from other mountains can be used to polish jade. The Heavenly Treasure Silver Toad and the Purple Star Yang come from another world, where a method for forging one's natal magic weapon happens to exist.
After being introduced by Tianbao Yinchan and Ziwei Xingyang, Qian Gu Chenran gradually focused his attention on how to forge magical treasures in the Douluo world.
According to Tianbao Yinchan, the upper limit of a magical artifact's growth depends entirely on the forger. With the assurances of Jin Lao and other riddle-solving figures, Qian Gu Chenran was quite confident about his future.
With the help of the Heavenly Treasure Silver Toad, Qian Gu Chen Ran incorporated its essence, along with the essence of the Purple Star Heavenly Sun and a portion of his own martial soul essence, into the sword hilt, and began tempering it half a month ago.
"Croak! Chen Ran, what are you going to call your first magic weapon?!"
"A name?" Qian Gu Chen Ran raised the hilt of his sword and uttered the name he had already decided on.
"Let's call it the Eternal Sun and Moon Sword!"
Chapter 159 Cai Yue'er, the Target of Public Condemnation
"The Eternal Sun and Moon Sword? Rumble. The name Chen Ran doesn't sound good. It should be called the Eternal Silver Purple Sword. What do you think?"
Seeing A Bao's expectant eyes, Qian Gu Chen Ran resolutely shook his head. This name is just too awful!
"The Eternal Yang Toad Sword!"
“It sounds terrible!”
"The Eternal Silver Rose Sword! That sounds nice!"
"Goodness gracious! Ah Bao, your taste is truly something else! It's awful!..."
While Qian Gu Chen Ran and A Bao were bickering to pass the time, Shrek Academy was thrown into a new storm by Qian Gu Chen Ran's unintentional scheme.
Shrek Academy Seagod Island
As soon as Zhuoshi arrived on the island, a pig-like scream suddenly came from the Sea God Pavilion.
"He Yushu!!! I'm not finished with you!" Hearing that familiar scream, Zhuoshi laughed again, his words lacking any real kindness. If you want to deal with Cai Yue'er, you'll have to see Yushu.
The new round of the Sea God Pavilion meeting began with Cai Yue'er's screams.
Yun Ming sat in the main seat, speechless as he looked down at Cai Yue'er, who hadn't stopped talking since the beginning. She'd finally quieted down for a while, but why was she making a scene again today?
Although the other elders did not show it on their faces, they were equally dissatisfied with Cai Yue'er's unreasonable behavior.
After a while, He Yushu and Zhuo Shi walked leisurely towards the Sea God Pavilion. Upon seeing He Yushu, the memory of being brutally beaten by him in front of others flooded back into Cai Yue'er's mind.
"He Yushu! Are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me today? Are you even a member of Shrek Academy anymore? I'm doing this for the good of the academy, you know that?"
Before He Yushu could even sit down, Cai Yue'er roared and questioned him again.
Hearing Cai Yue'er still shamelessly claiming that she was doing it for the good of Shrek Academy, He Yushu gave Cai Yue'er a strange look at her self-righteous expression.
He was very curious about just how thick-skinned Cai Yue'er was to be able to say such things without blushing or skipping a beat.
"Hmph! I'm going to make you lose face! You crazy woman, Gu Yue won't become your disciple, so why are you making things difficult for my three precious grand-disciples?"
They didn't do anything to you, and you just came up and stopped them from continuing their academy exams with a single sentence. Those who know you might understand, but those who don't might think you're the head of the Sea God Pavilion.
Ignoring Cai Yue'er's face, which was as black as the bottom of a pot, Zhuo Shi revealed the whole story.
Upon hearing that the incident stemmed from a student's refusal to accept Cai Yue'er's request to become her disciple, some of the elders gave Cai Yue'er, whose face had turned from dark to red, strange looks.
Feeling the gazes of everyone around her, Cai Yue'er wished she could disappear into the ground. That bastard Zhuo Shi, why did he even bother getting involved?
"Shut up! I'm doing this for the good of our academy. Do you know how monstrous that girl named Gu Yue is? She has multi-elemental control, and she can even skillfully use the three superior elements of light, darkness, and space. If I take her as my disciple, our Shrek Academy won't have to worry about the next hundred years."
Upon hearing that Gu Yue's martial soul could manipulate multiple elements, including three superior elements, the other elders, who had previously looked strange and even disdainful, immediately brightened up.
If this is true, then Cai Yue'er did nothing wrong! At most, it was a case of good intentions gone wrong.
A hint of curiosity flashed across Yun Ming and Ya Li's faces above. Yun Ming's previous dissatisfaction with Cai Yue'er also vanished.
Shrek Academy desperately needs a prodigy to ensure its future prosperity. If Gu Yue joins their Shrek Academy family, their future will be secure.
But He Yushu's next words shattered everyone's reverie. He took a sip of tea and looked at Cai Yue'er across from him with disdain.
"Idiot! Didn't you do any research before accepting a disciple? Gu Yue joined the Spirit Pagoda a long time ago, and you didn't even know that before shamelessly trying to get her to become your disciple. Where did you get the courage? Was it your meager strength or your shamelessness over the years?"
Cai Yue'er didn't hear He Yushu's sarcasm; she was stunned when she heard the words "Spirit Transmission Tower."
The Spirit Pagoda! Why would it be this hypocritical force, the Spirit Pagoda?! Cai Yue'er couldn't understand why Gu Yue would choose to join the Spirit Pagoda.
If it were any other force, they would do anything to bring Gu Yue under their wing for the sake of Cai Yue'er of the academy, even if it meant causing trouble at the hands of various powerful forces.
However, the Spirit Pagoda is no longer a place she can go to whenever she wants.
Yun Ming and the other elders, whose spirits had just been lifted, immediately felt their hopes plummet. They shouldn't have had any faith in Cai Yue'er in the first place.
"Exactly! Even people from the Spirit Pagoda don't know what kind of disciple you're taking in. Besides, your two martial souls are completely unrelated, not even remotely similar. If you really take him in as a disciple, what can you teach him? You'll teach him to be shameless and to act like a madman."
Pfft! Some of the elders couldn't help but laugh when they heard Zhuoshi's merciless words. How come they hadn't noticed before? Zhuoshi actually had a talent for stand-up comedy!
