But it didn't stop him from wondering about Yan Shaozhe's intentions.
Sure enough, Yan Shaozhe sighed and said slowly.
"Weilun, since you have worked with me for so many years, you have always done your duty to the academy and made efforts and contributions to the martial arts department. I will keep all of this in my heart."
"The dean was so complimentary...this is what I should do."
Du Weilun wiped his sweat and answered humbly and respectfully.
Unable to figure out Yan Shaozhe's intentions, he became increasingly uneasy.
"Thank you for your hard work these years."
"It is my honor to serve the dean and the martial arts department with all my heart."
"Um."
Yan Shaozhe nodded.
After a long moment of silence, the conversation suddenly changed.
"but……"
Du Weilun's heart sank, and he got to the point.
He quickly lowered his head and acted like he was listening.
"Weilun, this soul fighting competition has had a very bad impact on our Shrek Academy. In the more than 10,000 years since the school was founded, there has never been such a mistake. Even I was affected."
"Although I personally trained you, this competition is an event that you personally participated in and planned. Now the reputation of the college has been damaged... The elders are very dissatisfied, and the college needs an explanation."
"Weilun, what do you think?"
Yan Shaozhe picked up the tea cup and took a sip.
His eyes fell on Du Weilun from time to time, seeming to observe the changes in his expression.
"..."
Upon hearing this, Du Weilun's heart dropped.
He knew that Yan Shaozhe was going to make him take the blame.
And it seemed that Yan Shaozhe was asking for his opinion, but in fact when he opened his mouth, the explanation had already fallen on his head. He had no right to refuse.
The so-called choice lies between active and passive.
Although they all seem to have the same result, the meaning behind them is completely different.
If it's the former, Yan Shaozhe might still think about his old relationship and give him a hand. As for the latter, waiting for him might not end well...
what to do?
For a moment, Du Weilun's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and his brain was running rapidly.
Shaozhe, on the other hand, waited quietly, neither impatient nor impatient, as if he was confident.
"Dean."
After a long silence, Du Weilun gritted his teeth, raised his head and met Yan Shaozhe's gaze.
Yan Shaozhe raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Do you have any idea?"
Du Weilun took a deep breath and cupped his hands.
"Dean, the Soul Fighting Challenge is all the result of the subordinates' own initiative. Now it has brought shame to the college and damaged its reputation. Velen is willing to bear any punishment."
"Are you sure you want to bear it yourself?"
Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe took a deep look at Du Weilun and said, "Strictly speaking, I have also neglected my duty in this Soul Fighting Challenge."
Du Weilun's face paled slightly, but he still gritted his teeth and said.
"Dean, this is a subordinate's problem."
After saying that, Du Weilun lowered his head and waited anxiously for Yan Shaozhe's reply.
"...".
"Although the reputation of the college has been affected due to your mistakes in the Soul Fighting Challenge, I think you are sincerely thinking about the college, so the college has decided to be lenient with you."
"Thank you, thank you, Dean."
After hearing these words, Du Weilun was relieved.
He understood that the reason for such a change was because of his loyal attitude just now.
"but……"
At this moment, Yan Shaozhe suddenly changed his voice.
Du Weilun's heart was in doubt again, and he asked cautiously.
"I wonder if the dean has any other instructions?"
"take it easy."
Yan Shaozhe shook his head and said slowly, "Although I have given you a chance to make up for your mistakes in front of the elders, this position as the Dean of Students of the External College of the Martial Arts Department..."
Du Weilun understood the idea and said in a deep voice: "My subordinate feels ashamed and has asked to be transferred from the post of director of the Martial Arts Department's Outer Academy and stay in the Shrek Outer Academy as an ordinary teacher. I also ask the dean to agree."
"In that case, then you will be demoted to teach in the inner court first."
Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe nodded slightly.
A hint of approval flashed in his eyes as he looked at Du Weilun.
"As for the position of director of the outer courtyard of the Martial Arts Department, the academy was originally going to re-select, but there is no suitable candidate for a while. I will leave it to you to take care of it for the time being."
"This is the best result I have achieved for you. You should work hard during this period. When the turmoil in the college subsides, there may not be a chance for you to be reinstated."
"Subordinates take orders!"
Du Weilun bowed his head and accepted the order.
At the same time, I secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
This was much better than what he had expected. Originally, he had been prepared to fight it to the end, but to his surprise, Dean Yan would allow him to temporarily act as director.
There are many people eyeing the position of director of the outer courtyard of the Wuhun Department. How could they not find a suitable candidate?
Being able to continue to be the temporary substitute by myself is indispensable for the help of Dean Yan. When the storm of the Soul Fighting Challenge is over, this pronoun will naturally be removed. Although he has not clicked on these, Du Weilun understands in his heart.
Looking at Yan Shaozhe again, he burst into tears of gratitude.
"..."
Seeing this, Yan Shaozhe nodded with satisfaction.
Yan Shaozhe is already familiar with these methods of winning people over, including pa and painting cakes. After this incident, Du Weilun must have followed him even more wholeheartedly.
After thinking for a while, Du Weilun said:
"Dean, where are the exchange students from Sun and Moon..."
"Don't worry about them for now. The most important thing right now is to reduce the impact of this game on the college as soon as possible. It's best to mobilize the enthusiasm of the students and minimize negative remarks."
"in addition……"
After a pause, Yan Shaozhe continued, "Pay close attention to those inner academy students who lost the competition. They are the future of the academy. They must not be fearful or cowardly."
"..."
After being silent for a long time, Yan Shaozhe raised his head and suddenly asked.
"Do you think the news about twin martial souls is true or false?"
"Dean, I think this is absolutely true."
Yan Shaozhe raised his eyebrows: "What's the reason?"
"First of all, the conclusion of twin martial spirits was inferred by classmate Ma Xiaotao through "Martial Spirits Ten Core Competencies" by senior Yu Xiaogang, the master of martial arts research theory. There is no problem in theory."
"Secondly, during the last game, my subordinate Su Luoheng did release the corresponding soul skill and soul ring after calling out the name of the soul skill. Student Ma Xiaotao can prove this."
"Furthermore, he can absorb ten-thousand-year soul rings when he has four rings. Now that he has broken through to the soul king level, the number of years he can absorb soul rings has been further increased. It is understandable to add soul rings to the second martial soul in advance to maximize his combat power."
"After all, considering the quality of the soul beasts in the Sun and Moon Empire, the ten thousand year soul beast is already the best choice."
"And in the history of our Shrek Academy, it is not uncommon for soul masters to have twin souls who attached soul rings to their second souls in advance. For example, Xiaoxiao and Huo Yuhao from this class."
After speaking, Du Weilun hesitated and added.
"Perhaps Su Luoheng may have other hidden secrets, but there is definitely no problem with the identity of the twin martial souls. After all, the only ones who can master the ultimate ice are the ultimate ice attribute soul masters."
"That makes sense..."
Hearing this, Yan Shaozhe's eyes narrowed.
Du Weilun's answer made him quite agree with it.
However, the proof of the twin martial souls was very sufficient, but he still had doubts in his heart, and he always felt that the exposure this time was too coincidental.
"..."
After a long silence, Yan Shaozhe asked: "I remember that Su Luoheng's application for the evil soul master encirclement and suppression mission has been received, right?"
"Well, it has been arranged. It will be in two weeks."
"Tell the trainees from the prosecutor's team who are following him that, while ensuring that there will be no problems with safety, they can conduct appropriate tests to confirm whether he is a twin martial soul."
"yes."
After saying this, Yan Shaozhe waved his hand, stood up and walked to the window.
He looked out the window with distant eyes.
"..."
There was silence for a while.
When Yan Shaozhe looked away, he found that Du Weilun, who had signaled to leave, was still in the room. He seemed to be hesitant to speak, as if there was something unfinished.
"Anything else?"
Du Weilun hesitated for a moment and said, "Dean, are we still distributing Su Luoheng's prizes?"
"Just distribute it as usual." Yan Shaozhe waved his hand.
"Then...what should we do if we promise his soul bone?"
"Su Luoheng has won for five days in a row. According to the rules, we should give a 70,000-year-old soul bone as a prize."
"Are you really given this soul bone?"
Du Weilun seemed a little hesitant.
Although Shrek Academy has a large amount of soul bone resources, soul bones that are more than 70,000 years old are rare treasures. Giving it to an exchange student from another college like this made him feel a little sad.
"Of course I have to give it."
Yan Shaozhe glanced at him and continued: "If we don't give it, won't it mean that we, Shrek, can't afford to lose? If it spreads, how will outsiders view us, Shrek Academy?"
"Well……"
Du Weilun paused and his face became embarrassed.
He knew that he was too one-sided this time. The value of a 70,000-year-old soul bone was indeed precious, but compared with Shrek Academy's ten-thousand-year reputation, one could tell at a glance which one was more important.
"I'm going to prepare now—"
"Wait, don't worry yet."
After a pause, a gleam of light flashed in Yan Shaozhe's eyes.
"We want to give him soul bones. But according to the reward rules, we only promised to give him suitable soul bones that are more than 70,000 years old, but we did not specify what type of soul bones they are."
Du Weilun thoughtfully asked, "What do you mean?"
"We just need to provide soul bones that meet the requirements. As for whether they can successfully absorb the soul bones after receiving them, or whether there will be accidents during the absorption process, etc..."
"These are none of our business."
"Are you talking about...the head soul bone?" Du Weilun's eyes brightened slightly.
"Well, that's it."
Yan Shaozhe nodded without leaving any trace.
Soon, Du Weilun showed a worried look, "Dean, what if Sun and Moon discover something wrong with that soul bone?"
"Discovered the soul bone problem?"
Yan Shaozhe sneered, "Only if we can find out!"
"Dean..."
With that said, he stood up and walked to Du Weilun.
"When it comes to the research on soul guidance devices, we are not as good as the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy. But when it comes to the research on soul bones, they are far behind."
"In order to study that piece of soul bone, we paid the price of two outstanding students losing their future, and then we finally got something. Even if we want to see it, it is so difficult, do you think the sun and the moon can find it?"
"Good meeting, Dean."
Hearing Yan Shaozhe's analysis, Du Weilun suddenly understood.
yes!
The Sun and Moon Empire is not as good as Shrek in soul bone research, and there is a high probability that they will not discover this problem. In this case, faced with a precious old head soul bone, 80% of the time it will be directly absorbed by Su Luoheng.
Once something goes wrong...
At that time, Su Luoheng was naturally nothing to be afraid of.
"My subordinates will do it now."
"Um."
"..."
After saying this, Du Weilun bowed and retreated.
Shaozhe also left at the same time.
Ma Xiaotao was still lying in the infirmary. Although she was fine there, he still wanted to take a look. Yan Shaozhe paid special attention to Ma Xiaotao, his only direct disciple.
…
…
While Shrek was busy eliminating the negative impact of the Soul Fighting Challenge, Su Luoheng returned to his normal life after the Soul Fighting Tournament ended.
It’s just that I don’t go to the spirit fighting arena as often as before.
After this battle, Su Luoheng is now completely famous in both the internal and external schools of Schreck, and has become a veritable man of the hour. The benefits of showing strength have also reduced a lot of temptations.
In addition, after four days of opening the game, Su Luoheng earned a total of nearly 50 million gold soul coins from the teachers and students of Shrek this time, which is equivalent to three months after leaving the former soul guidance shop.
net profit.
As for the rewards provided by Shrek Academy for this arena match.
Unexpectedly, Shrek delivered rewards very quickly this time. On the third day after the competition, he delivered two physical rewards, 50,000 soul coins and 70,000-year soul bones.
As for the secret realm training and library rewards, Su Luoheng can redeem them at any time during the two-and-a-half-year exchange student period. Rewards that exceed the time limit will automatically be invalidated.
Shrek's cheerfulness made Mr. Ma couldn't help but click his tongue.
This is very different from their usual image.
But if you think about it carefully, you can understand it.
This soul-fighting exchange match has already become a hubbub, and everyone knows about it. Now that Shrek Academy has overturned on the Soul King, countless pairs of eyes are staring at their attitude.
It's already embarrassing enough to be used as a stepping stone by a Soul King, but if they continue to make a fuss about the rewards, their Shrek Academy will really become a joke this time.
So they have to deliver these rewards, and they have to do it quickly.
In this way, at least he can end up with an image that he can afford to lose.
but--
Compared with this incident, what surprised the two of them the most was the 70,000-year-old soul bone awarded by Shrek Academy.
Because the specific parts of the soul bones were not specified in advance when the reward conditions were set, Mr. Ma and Su Luoheng speculated that based on Shrek Academy's urine quality, they would probably give out relatively low-value limb soul bones as rewards.
However, no one expected that what Shrek Academy sent was actually the most precious, most important and rarest head soul bone among the six soul bones, and it also had an extremely rare time attribute.
Shi Laike's sudden and generous move caught both Ma Lao and Su Luoheng by surprise.
