Chapter 1301: Could it be that you've fallen for me? (Please subscribe)_1

The Elders of the Sea God Pavilion all drew in a sharp breath, "Hiss..." feeling the pressures from Elder Cai and Xu Sheng evenly matched, an astonishing sight.

Yun Ming, who had been silent all this while, coldly said, "Enough! Elder Cai, Shen Yi has served Shrek Academy for so long, you should give her more trust!"

The next moment, he released a gentle Soul Power from his body, which dissipated the clashing pressures...

Elder Cai was stunned, "I was too hasty, Pavilion Master!"

But the look in his eyes towards Xu Sheng was filled with a peculiar brilliance...

The former was actually able to withstand his pressure, and it seemed with ease at that!

Was he really only at the level of a Soul Sage?

Perhaps not even an ordinary Hyper Douluo could achieve that, right?

At this time, Yun Ming's gaze fixed on Shen Yi as he said, "Shen Yi, how can you prove that what you just said is true?"

Shen Yi took a deep breath and then released two bodies of evil Soul Masters, dressed in dark red robes, from her soul tool onto the ground...

She said, "Pavilion Master, Elders, here lie the bodies of those two Title Douluo-level evil Soul Masters; you can conduct your investigation."

She was also thankful for Xu Sheng's reminder; otherwise, she might have been unable to clear her name...

Hearing this, the pupils of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion shrank suddenly, and they immediately extended their Soul Power toward the two bodies on the ground to sense...

After a moment, Feng Wu Yu gave a slight nod, "Although they have lost their vitality, one can still perceive that they were indeed at the Title Douluo level before their demise. There's no doubt about it!"

Long Yeyue nodded, "Indeed, every evil Soul Master who reaches the Title Douluo level wears a dark red robe! It has become a rule!"

Ya Li pursed her lips in disbelief, "It truly is... two Title Douluo, no… one of them was even a level-95 Hyper Douluo!"

Lan Muzi smacked his lips, "Incredible, to think they returned from such a dire situation with only two-thirds of their teachers lost!"

Turbid World Elder barked, "Humph! How could my disciple possibly lie!"

Doesn't he know what kind of person his disciple is?

As his words fell, the Elders who had been suspecting Shen Yi of lying had a few shades of embarrassment on their faces, and they just closed their mouths in sulk without speaking...

Seeing this, Yun Ming spoke in a gentle tone, "Xu Sheng, Shen Yi, it was hard work on your part to eliminate the evil Soul Master stronghold, and we have understood the course of events. Please, take your leave for now!"

Shen Yi nodded, "Yes, Pavilion Master, then Teacher Xu and I will take our leave!"

After saying that, without waiting for Xu Sheng to react, she unexpectedly took the initiative to grasp his wrist, and the two quickly left the Sea God Pavilion...

Once Xu Sheng had left, an unreal silence enveloped the entire Sea God Pavilion...

All of a sudden, Yun Ming, with his turbid eyes, looked at all the members present in the Sea God Pavilion and said, "Fellow Elders, do you think under such circumstances, all the evil Soul Masters could have succumbed to madness and slaughtered each other?"

The other Elders of the Sea God Pavilion expressed their thoughts upon hearing his words...

"Although there are indeed bodies of two Title Douluo-level evil Soul Masters, such an explanation seems far-fetched!"

"Yes! We trust Shen Yi's loyalty to the Academy, but maybe it's not as simple as that!"

"There is something fishy about this! But we can't find any grounds to refute it, especially since Shen Yi has brought forth evidence!"

If it wasn't madness leading to mutual slaughter, then who could have killed these two Title Douluo-level evil Soul Masters?

Could it have been the teachers sent from Shrek Academy? That seems impossible!

Only Elder Cai, with a grave expression, spoke up, "Pavilion Master, Xu Sheng was able to face my pressure without turning a hair. I fear his true strength is not as it appears!"

"So, could it be that he personally executed the killing? Because Shen Yi had also said that she and the rest of the teachers were in a coma at the time, and all of this was informed to us by Xu Sheng!"

Yun Ming narrowed his eyes, not answering immediately as if pondering…

However, just at this moment, the words that once again came from Turbid World's mouth astonished everyone…

"Pavilion Master, and Elders, the truth is, I lost to Xu Sheng in our battle that day! And I lost utterly."

He was well aware that Xu Sheng had admitted defeat voluntarily to save his own face!

Ya Li's Beautiful Eyes widened in shock, "What??? How is that possible!! Turbid World Elder, you are a level-98 Hyper Douluo!"

Tang Yinmeng bit her lower lip, "That Xu Sheng looks to be only in his twenties, how could he possibly possess the strength to contend with a Hyper Douluo, you must be overthinking it!"

Long Yeyue furrowed her brows, "Turbid World, this joke is in bad taste! Are you trying to say that Xu Sheng's strength could rival a level-98 Hyper Douluo, or even a level-99 Ultimate Douluo?"

"No… it's not about rivaling, his power could very well be above that of an Ultimate Douluo!"

Upon hearing this statement, Yun Ming immediately spoke up to interrupt, "This matter has no foundation, it must not be spread around. Although Xu Sheng's identity and strength are very mysterious, no matter what, he is also a teacher of Shrek Academy, and having him stay is more beneficial than not!"

Could it be that this Xu Sheng, really is…

…

On the other side, Xu Sheng, whose wrist was being held, spoke with a light laugh, "Teacher Shen, could you let go of my hand?"

Hearing this, Shen Yi's cheeks flushed red as if electrified, and she let go of the hand she was holding…

After taking a deep breath, she looked directly into Xu Sheng's dark eyes and said earnestly, "Xu Sheng, thank you for what happened at Sea God's Pavilion!"

To this, he simply smiled lightly, replying casually, "No need to thank me, we are colleagues after all."

Hearing this, disappointment flickered in Shen Yi's beautiful eyes, but she summoned her courage, "Uh… Xu Sheng, I want... I want to ask you something… do you mind telling me?"

Xu Sheng raised his eyebrows, "Hmm? What is it?"

Shen Yi clenched her fists, somewhat awkwardly saying, "It's just… just… Teacher Xu, do... do you have a partner?"

Xu Sheng teased, "A partner? Teacher Shen, why do you ask, could it be that you've taken a liking to me without realizing it?"

Having her thoughts so directly exposed, even Shen Yi felt she had lost all face and reflexively retorted, "Who… who likes you! Teacher Xu, please do not flatter yourself!"

But as soon as she said it, she regretted it…

Xu Sheng's expression turned nonchalant, "You don't like me? That's indeed the wisest choice. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving,"

With that, he turned around and began walking towards the class he was teaching…

Watching Xu Sheng's retreating back, Shen Yi stomped her foot in annoyance…

Darn it, why did I have to retort just now!

So, Xu Sheng still hasn't told me whether he has a partner or not!
