Chapter 175: Drinking Leads to Disaster, Xuan Zi Kills Eight Inner Sect Disciples
[Review Xuan Zi!]
[Useless Taotie Douluo!]
With this new review, Xuan Zi was immediately thrust into the spotlight.
No one expected the Sky Curtain's evaluation of the Taotie Douluo to be so direct.
Body Sect!
Du Busi was stunned for a few seconds.
Then he burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, the heavens truly have eyes."
"A dignified Rank 98 Titled Douluo is called useless."
"From now on, this guy will probably become the laughingstock of the entire continent."
Du Busi looked at the Sky Curtain, unable to suppress his schadenfreude.
As a Rank 98 super Douluo, Du Busi and Xuan Zi could be said to be evenly matched.
But Xuan Zi being evaluated as useless indicated that Shrek was inferior to the Body Sect.
Using this as an opportunity, Du Busi could mock Shrek for quite some time.
Holy Spirit Church.
Zhongli Wu became interested.
He naturally knew who Xuan Zi was.
The Rank 98 Taotie Douluo was one of the few powerhouses on the entire continent today.
Even Zhongli Wu would not dare to underestimate such an existence.
But he never expected Xuan Zi's evaluation to be so poor.
Zhongli Wu was very curious whether Xuan Zi was being targeted and deliberately slandered by the Sky Curtain, or if he was truly useless.
He had a premonition that the upcoming events would definitely be very interesting.
…
Dai Hao's mouth twitched, his expression very strained.
Even a Rank 98 Taotie Douluo was called useless.
Then those with less power than Xuan Zi would be even worse than useless.
At this moment, Dai Hao felt that he was being subtly criticized.
Under heaven, only the Sky Curtain would dare to call the Taotie Douluo useless.
If it were anyone else who dared to speak such nonsense, Shrek would undoubtedly attack them directly.
Xuan Zi's temper was not to be trifled with.
Aside from Ultimate Douluo, no one could truly threaten this taotie.
Sun Moon Empire.
Jing Hongchen had a playful look.
Although he didn't know why Xuan Zi's evaluation was 'useless,' he understood that this was an opportunity.
This was an opportunity to discredit Shrek's reputation.
As long as Shrek's reputation suffered,
it could shake Shrek's position, cause Shrek's enrollment numbers to decline, and thus lead to a decline in Shrek's power.
On the current continent, many forces hoped to suppress Shrek.
For example, the Sun Moon Empire, the Holy Spirit Church, the Body Sect... all were in competition!
Shrek, Sea God Pavilion.
Mu En's old face darkened; he never expected Xuan Zi's evaluation to be so poor.
The Taotie Douluo was the strongest existence after him.
Such an existence would inevitably succeed him and guard the Sea God Pavilion in the future.
This meant that in a few years or decades, Taotie Douluo would become the new master of the Sea God Pavilion and the face of Shrek.
Every word and action of the Taotie Douluo represented Shrek's dignity and concerned Shrek's interests.
If Xuan Zi was regarded as useless by the world, then a useless leader for Shrek would definitely have a huge impact on the academy.
"What a headache!"
"Although this guy Xuan Zi is sometimes unreliable,"
"He is still a Rank 98 Super Douluo."
"No matter how bad he is, how bad could he be?"
"The title of useless is simply an exaggeration."
Mu En was indignant.
He did not want Xuan Zi to be labeled useless.
Both publicly and privately, Xuan Zi was very important to Mu En.
Meanwhile, Xuan Zi, who was out looking for Huo Yuhao, saw himself being evaluated as useless, and his veins immediately bulged, anger rising.
"Slander... this is simply slander."
"Who is deliberately slandering my name as Taotie?"
As the person involved, Xuan Zi did not agree with this evaluation at all.
His current status and power were considered excellent on the Douluo Continent.
If people like him were useless, then more than 90% of the Soul Masters on the continent would be even worse than useless.
He wanted to see today why the Sky Curtain's evaluation of him was so poor.
If the Sky Curtain didn't give a reasonable explanation, Xuan Zi would risk his life to destroy the Sky Curtain.
[My name is Xuan Zi, my Martial Soul is Taotie Divine Bull, and I have had extraordinary potential since childhood.]
[After my Martial Soul Awakening, I entered Shrek to study.]
[Because of my Martial Soul, I loved to eat.]
[Later, as I grew older, I also became addicted to alcohol.]
[From childhood to adulthood, relying on the power of my Martial Soul, I experienced almost no setbacks.]
[This caused my personality to be somewhat lax.]
[However, I didn't take it to heart.]
[Because I firmly believed that as long as my own power was strong enough, any shortcomings could be compensated for.]
[Later, after the Master passed away, Junior Martial Uncle Mu En and I took on the heavy responsibility of Shrek.]
[Bearing such a heavy responsibility, I realized that it was not easy to support an academy.]
[Fortunately, Mu En was excellent enough.]
[He presided over the Sea God Pavilion, leading the academy in an orderly manner.]
[This meant I didn't have to worry much.]
[And I was happy to be idle, eating all day long.]
[I thought to myself, in the future, I only need to complete the tasks assigned by Mu En.]
[As for other things, I didn't want to worry about them.]
[Mu En often criticized my rashness regarding my performance.]
[He hoped that I could bear the heavy responsibility of the next master of the Sea God Pavilion.]
[Therefore, he had great expectations for me and taught me to act cautiously.]
[However, I didn't take it to heart.]
[I still continued as usual...]
[Until one mission, my life changed.]
[When I had just achieved a breakthrough to Rank 98, I received a team-leading mission.]
[I needed to lead twelve elite Inner Sect Disciples to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for the required soul ring.]
[Before departure, Mu En warned me not to let drinking lead to disaster.]
[This team-leading mission concerned the lives of twelve elite disciples, and it needed to be taken seriously.]
[I agreed, but I didn't take it seriously in my heart.]
[As soon as I left Shrek, I pulled out the large gourd I carried with me and drank fine wine.]
[I wasn't worried about this team-leading mission at all.]
[Although the Star Dou Great Forest was the territory of Soul Beasts, full of dangers.]
[But there was Le Xuan, a Rank 79 Peak Soul Saint and the chief disciple of the Inner Sect, in the team.]
[So I was completely relaxed throughout.]
[I just treated it as an accompaniment.]
[Along the way, I didn't fulfill any of my responsibilities as a team leader.]
[I was constantly immersed in fine wine.]
[But it was this carelessness that led to an accident.]
[Because drinking led to disaster, I got separated from the others and got lost.]
[And Le Xuan's elite Inner Sect team just happened to encounter a 100,000-year Soul Beast in the outer periphery of the Star Dou Great Forest.]
[A battle ensued between the two sides.]
[Facing the 100,000-year Soul Beast, Le Xuan led her teammates to successfully kill it.]
[But eight team members paid with their lives for it.]
[To protect her teammates, Le Xuan even risked absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring, nearing death.]
[When I rushed over, I could only try my best to make up for my mistake.]
[I immediately took Le Xuan back to the academy for treatment.]
[The chief disciple of the Inner Sect could not die.]
[I knew how great Le Xuan's potential was.]
[If such a genius were to die prematurely because of my momentary carelessness, I would never forgive myself.]
