Soul Land IV (Douluo Dalu) : Ultimate Fighting

Lan Xuanyu looked at these three people. Needless to say, he knew all of them. The one walking in front was Shrek Academy’s Sea God Pavilion’s Vice Pavilion Master, Wang Tianyu. The two people behind Wang Tianyu were the Tang Sect’s God-rank powerhouse that he had seen on the Elven Planet, Tang Miao, the vice hall master of the Douluo Hall. The other was naturally the leader of their previous team, Deng Bo, who was the victim of their final exam.

Upon seeing Lan Xuanyu’s team of seven, Deng Bo couldn’t help but grit his teeth. These little guys had really tricked him to death.

The warship was lost! The warship was actually stolen. How could he dare to hide it? He returned to the Tang Sect and was immediately punished.

Furthermore, this concerned the relationship between Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect. If Shrek was nervous, would the Tang Sect not be?

That was why Tang Miao came personally to discuss with Wang Tianyu on how to handle this matter.

Wang Tianyu had a headache too. Lan Xuanyu, that brat, ran away immediately after doing something bad. He didn’t even know where he went and he didn’t really investigate. He had talked to Tang Miao about this matter a few times and expressed his apologies many times.

School was about to reopen, and Lan Xuanyu and his team would probably be back soon. Tang Miao was a guest in Eternal Sky City for the next two days and was waiting for them to return to settle the matter.

The moment he entered, Tang Miao saw Lan Xuanyu and a smile appeared on his face. This was truly an audacious brat!

Wang Tianyu naturally saw Lan Xuanyu and scoffed.

Lan Xuanyu looked at him calmly and didn’t avoid him at all.

Wang Tianyu’s heart stirred as he looked deeply into Lan Xuanyu’s eyes. A hint of surprise flashed across his heart. Spirit Abyss realm? This brat’s spiritual power is at the Spirit Abyss realm?

It’s only been a few days? What’s going on? Upon discovering this, the anger in Wang Tianyu’s heart extinguished slightly.

“Teacher, senior Tang.” Ying Luohong and Tang Zhenhua stepped forward and bowed.

“En.” Wang Tianyu agreed and then made an inviting gesture towards Tang Miao. “Brother Tang, please.”

Tang Miao and Wang Tianyu sat on the sofa while the rest stood.

Wang Tianyu looked at Lan Xuanyu and asked, “Where’s the warship?”

Lan Xuanyu raised his hand and revealed his Ring of Fate. “Here, here.”

“Hand over the warship later and write a deep self-reflection letter. Go to the Tang Sect and admit your mistake. The seven of you must write it. The academy will allow you to stay in school for inspection. If there is a next time, all of you will be expelled from the academy,” Wang Tianyu said coldly.

This punishment didn’t seem to be light and there was only a thin line between staying in school and being expelled. But in fact, he was avoiding the important and the light. He was clearly protecting his students.

Tang Miao didn’t say anything. The Tang Sect and Shrek Academy had a close relationship and were close comrades. How could Shrek Academy really expel Lan Xuanyu?

When they were on the Elven Planet, they could tell how much Shrek Academy valued these youths.

Hence, he was prepared to go with the flow and forget about it.

Deng Bo glared at these little guys and really wanted to beat them up, but there was nothing he could do. After all, they were allies.

Tang Zhenhua and Ying Luohong heaved sighs of relief. The academy still protected Lan Xuanyu’s team.

Seeing that this matter was about to be erased, Lan Xuanyu suddenly said, “Pavilion Master, I can’t hand over the warship. At least, I can’t hand it over without knowing why. We didn’t do anything wrong.”

“Ah?” Tang Zhenhua and Ying Luohong were dumbstruck at the same time. Although they were flustered and exasperated when they faced Lan Xuanyu previously, they had been thinking about how to minimize the issue and wipe it out.

He didn’t expect Lan Xuanyu to say such a thing after gaining the approval of the higher-ups.

“Do you know what you’re talking about?” Tang Zhenhua pulled Lan Xuanyu back and said angrily before giving him a meaningful look.

Sensing Wang Tianyu’s unfriendly gaze, Tang Miao’s curious gaze, and Deng Bo’s gritting teeth, Lan Xuanyu said aggrievedly, “Teacher, even if you have to convict the criminal, you have to give the criminal a chance to explain. Can I defend myself?”

“Shut up!” Tang Zhenhua was truly enraged. This disciple of his was usually very smart! Why was he so muddle-headed now? What was going on? This was related to the relationship between Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect! A warship was nothing to the two forces, but it would be a big problem if it became the fuse to destroy their intimate relationship.

“Let him speak.” Wang Tianyu’s somewhat cold voice resounded. “I want to hear what kind of twisted logic he has. No matter how outstanding a student is, if his heart isn’t right, it doesn’t matter how outstanding his talent is.”

This was a very serious warning.

Lan Xuanyu looked at Tang Zhenhua, whose face was flushed red with anger, and quickly rubbed his chest before giving him a reassuring look. He then took a step forward and walked over to Wang Tianyu, Tang Miao, and Deng Bo.

“Eh.” Tang Miao didn’t pay attention to it previously, but he realized that something wasn’t right now. One had to know that he and Wang Tianyu were both god-rank powerhouses. Even if they didn’t reveal any might to the outside world, their Divine Sense would naturally exert a trace of pressure. This child was actually able to face it without changing his expression in front of the two of them. This wasn’t a problem with his cultivation, but that his Spiritual Power was sufficient to withstand the pressure.

This is… the Spirit Abyss realm?

A hint of shock flashed across Tang Miao’s eyes. ‘This child is only a first year, right? He should be 13 years old at most. A 13-year-old Spirit Abyss realm spiritual power, I’m afraid that even the almighty figures in Shrek Academy and the Tang Sect’s history didn’t reach this level, right?’

It was no wonder that Wang Tianyu had protected this brat with his words. It was also no wonder that this brat was so arrogant that he dared to snatch the Tang Sect’s warship.

Lan Xuanyu took a few steps forward and bowed to Wang Tianyu and Tang Miao before bowing to Deng Bo. “Team leader, regarding what happened previously, I apologize on behalf of our team.”

Seeing his sincere look, Wang Tianyu’s expression became slightly better. At least this boy wasn’t too arrogant.

Lan Xuanyu stood up straight and said, “Pavilion Master Wang, senior Tang. The two of you may have already understood the entire process, but you didn’t get it from the seven of us. I would like to explain the situation once again.”

“En, go ahead.” Tang Miao smiled.

Lan Xuanyu nodded and said, “The situation is like this. At that time, we received a notice from the Dean that we will be taking a different final exam from the other students. We all know that this is the academy’s special treatment towards us, so we placed great importance on this final exam. We had to complete this exam at all costs.”

“After that, we boarded the warship and met team leader Deng. At that time, team leader Deng didn’t tell us anything about the test, right, team leader?”

Deng Bo scoffed, but he still nodded. It was the truth.

Lan Xuanyu said, “We have to thank you, team leader. During the entire journey to Heaven Planet, you taught us about warship piloting and allowed us to learn much about it. If not for that, we might not have been able to complete the final exam.”

“We only found out the destination of this trip very soon before we arrived. That was the infamous Sin Planet! After we found out about this, we were all terrified. Of course, we were also a little excited and eager to see what Sin Planet looked like.”

“It was our first time there and we were clueless about everything in that world. The warship landed and after a few days of trudging, we arrived at Black Horn City and entered the city of this evil planet. The team leader had told us that the mission was to coordinate with him to rescue Tang Sect’s partners. We were naturally very willing and would definitely do our best. But not long after, we realized that everything was different from what we imagined.”

“The team leader left, leaving us penniless. Then, he left a note and told us the real mission for the final exam. He requested that we return to the Mother Planet within ten days and return to the academy before passing the final exam.”

“Pavilion Master Wang, senior Tang, is this a final exam that we could complete? During these 10 days, we had to fly for at least five days, and we had used up three days arriving at Black Horn City. This means that we only had two days to find a warship that we could use to go back home. During these two days, our group of people, who had no relatives and were completely abandoned by the Tang Sect’s leader whom we can trust, had nothing at all. We didn’t even have a single Heaven coin, we felt helpless and didn’t know what to do.”
