Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 867 Xuanzi: Under my leadership, Shrek Academy wins every day!

This will better protect the interests of Shrek Academy.

Although these students have only been in the academy for a short time, their abilities are not weak.

The reason is simple: in order to wage war against the Sun Moon Empire, he did not hesitate to force the students to grow faster by using various elixirs to help them improve their strength, resulting in their cultivation advancing by leaps and bounds!

In this way, a group of students can be trained as quickly as possible and deployed to the battlefield to play a certain role.

The only cost might be a significant depletion of students' potential.

In the past, when Elder Mu was the head of the Sea God Pavilion, Xuanzi would never have done such a thing. He even felt that such a thing would undermine Shrek Academy's principle of caring for its students. But times have changed now.

If we don't use every means to actively prepare for the final battle against the Sun Moon Empire, Shrek Academy might perish in the annals of history. If that happens, I will be a sinner against Shrek Academy!

For the future of the college, let the students suffer a bit, and I'll bear the blame!

Xuanzi's gaze swept over the crowd. He cleared his throat, and his deep voice, imbued with soul power, immediately echoed throughout the entire assembly hall, resounding in everyone's ears:

"Fellow teachers and students, a year ago, the academy suffered a great defeat. I led those with aspirations to retreat to Lingdou City of the Douling Empire, where we established a temporary base for Shrek Academy, thus preserving the flame of the academy."

Because the previous Sea God Pavilion Master, Yan Shaozhe, opened the city gates and surrendered, begging for mercy from the Sun Moon Empire like a dog, the academy's prestige suffered a major blow.

Even within the Douling Empire, there were many who doubted the academy, thus creating a deep rift in trust between the academy and other anti-Sun Moon forces.

"I know that only by speaking with facts can we dispel doubts, regain confidence in fighting the Sun and Moon Empire together, and bring hope to everyone."

Therefore, during my year as the Sea God Pavilion Master, I implemented a series of measures that successfully restored Shrek Academy's prestige within the Douling Empire like lightning!

"The negative comments that arose from Yan Shaozhe's surrender at the city gates have vanished like smoke, and the Douling people have regained their trust and respect for Shrek Academy."

"The total number of students at Shrek Academy, as well as the overall rate of improvement in their cultivation, have reached new highs! Soul tool technology is also making continuous breakthroughs!"

"Even among the past Sea God Pavilion Masters of Shrek Academy, I am among the top. Under my leadership, Shrek Academy wins every single day, you could say they're winning non-stop!"

After he finished speaking, he paused, not continuing, but quietly waiting for the students' praise.

The students immediately stood up and clapped enthusiastically. Their faces were filled with excitement and their eyes were brimming with fervor.

Rather than being students of the academy, they were more like fanatics from certain sects in the history of Douluo Continent.

"Long live Elder Xuan!"

"That's amazing, Elder Xuan!"

"Under Elder Xuan's leadership, victories followed one after another!"

"I propose that Elder Xuan's birthday be designated as Shrek Academy's annual Victory Day, with a military parade to commemorate Elder Xuan's great achievements!"

Shrek Academy has now formed several Soul Master Corps, mainly composed of teachers and students of Shrek Academy.

Hearing these words, Xuanzi's smile grew even wider. He thought to himself, no wonder the founders of some sects in the history of Douluo always had a group of people praising them by their side.

At this moment, his gaze fell on the young man who had just suggested "making Elder Xuan's birthday Shrek Academy's annual Victory Day," and his expression turned serious as he rebuked him:

"Your suggestion is completely wrong. Even the ancestors of the original Seven Devils did not designate their birthdays as the academy's Victory Day or hold a military parade on that day. I have indeed achieved great feats, but I am not as great as the ancestors of the original Seven Devils. It is important for a person to know their own limitations!"

The young man immediately became anxious and quickly said:
"Elder Xuan, I think you are the greatest Pavilion Master in the history of Shrek Academy, and the second place is Dean Flander!"
"The original Seven Devils' ancestor was indeed great, but he was a deity, so he can't be compared to you on the same level. Please accept my suggestion!" Xuanzi shook his head vigorously, his expression growing increasingly serious, like an ancient, unyielding block of ice: "No."

The young man turned to the other students and said loudly:
What do you all think of my suggestion?

After a moment of silence, everyone shouted:

"I agree with your proposal."

"That's right, we should designate Elder Xuan's birthday as Victory Day!"

Words of support poured in.

The young man turned to look at Xuanzi and said:

"Elder Xuan, you see, everyone agrees with my suggestion. Please listen to the students' voices!"

A bitter expression appeared on Xuanzi's face:

“I have always been someone who cares about students and respects their opinions. What you are doing is like putting me on the hot seat!”

The young man knelt on the ground, raised his head, and looked at Xuanzi. The other students followed suit, and in an instant, a large number of people knelt down in the hall.

"If you don't agree, we'll kneel here forever!"

"Yes, we'll kneel here forever!"

Looking at everyone, Xuanzi fell silent with anger on his face, and the atmosphere in the hall became increasingly oppressive, as if dark clouds were pressing down.

After a moment, Xuanzi sighed and said helplessly:

"Fine, then let's make my birthday Victory Day and hold a military parade on that day! You've really ruined my life!"

The crowd cheered.

The cheers were deafening, like thunder.

At this moment, through the old-fashioned soul-guided light screen in the main hall, He Caitou, located in a soul-guided laboratory, stared blankly at this scene and said in astonishment:
"Teacher, has the academy really become like this? This is completely different from the academy I remember! It's more like a cult of sycophants than an academy!"

"Set Elder Xuan's birthday as Victory Day? What Victory Day? What exactly were they victorious over?"

For the past year, he has been in seclusion cultivating and improving his Soul Master level. He basically doesn't concern himself with outside affairs, and his daily needs are taken care of by others, so he doesn't need to go out.

He did this partly because the level of a Soul Master is limited by one's cultivation level.

On the other hand, Huo Yuhao made a request that he spend more time improving his personal cultivation, so that he could gain more influence in Shrek Academy and the Douling Empire.

Today he finished his seclusion and came out for a stroll, hoping to clear his mind. However, his teacher brought him here to watch a so-called lecture by a mysterious old man.

The result greatly shocked him; he felt that the academy had undergone tremendous changes in just one year of seclusion.

Beside her, Fan Yu sighed helplessly:
"This is the result of the gratitude education led by Elder Xuan. I also feel that this will make the atmosphere of the academy very strange, which goes against the original intention of the academy's ancestors in creating the academy."
