279: Chapter 279 Starry Sky Beasts Block the Road, Shrek Academy Demands Money

"Elder Mu, I understand. I will not seek death again."

Xuan Zi wiped away his tears and snot, his eyes gradually becoming resolute.

Seeing that he had finally persuaded Xuan Zi, Mu En breathed a sigh of relief.

He was truly tired.

Now that he was nearly ready for the grave, he still had to toil for Shrek.

What irritated him the most was that none of his subordinates were worry-free.

After completing Xuan Zi's psychological preparation, Mu En turned to look at Yan Shaozhe, whose face had swollen into a pig's head.

"Shao-zhe, go back and retrieve the resources."

"Remember, do not be greedy. Whatever the amount I just ordered you to take, you are to bring me double that amount."

This was something he had to remind Yan Shaozhe of.

As a teacher, he knew Yan Shaozhe's character too well; he was not magnanimous enough.

If he sent Yan Shaozhe back to get the resources without prior warning, based on his understanding of him, Yan Shaozhe would certainly find loopholes and skimp on the resources.

Hearing this, the selfish calculations in Yan Shaozhe's heart instantly vanished.

"Teacher, this Disciple understands."

After promising Mu En, Yan Shaozhe returned in the direction of Shrek Academy at the fastest speed possible.

Just like that, Mu En remained in a standoff with the three women: Bibi Dong, Zi Ji, and Qian Renxue.

During this process, Mu En gained a better understanding of the power of Bibi Dong and Zi Ji.

These two had undoubtedly reached the level of a Rank 99 Limit Douluo.

But after careful observation, Mu En discovered that Bibi Dong and Zi Ji were far stronger than him, not just by a little bit.

He could not accurately judge the extent of Bibi Dong and Zi Ji's power.

However, he could roughly infer that the gap between Bibi Dong, Zi Ji, and himself was by no means smaller than the gap between himself and Xuan Zi.

Even if he were at Shrek Academy, utilizing the power of the Sea God, he might not necessarily be able to defeat Bibi Dong and Zi Ji.

For a moment, Mu En's heart was filled with extreme gravity and doubt.

Where on earth did Bibi Dong and Zi Ji pop out from? Such terrifying powerhouses should not be unknown, right?

The events that had occurred on the continent during this period of time had left even a Limit Douluo like him unable to comprehend them.

As time passed.

Yan Shaozhe's figure soon reappeared here.

"Teacher, this is 20% of our Shrek resources. This Disciple absolutely did not skimp."

After handing the storage spirit tool containing the resources to Mu En, Yan Shaozhe's face was filled with heartache.

20% of the resources!

Plus the 10% in Mu En's hand, that was a full 30% of the resources.

The foundation accumulated over ten thousand years had just vanished by 30%.

Any faction would feel the pain for a while.

After handing all 30% of the resources in his hand to Bibi Dong, Mu En spoke:

"Your Excellency, I have given the 30% of resources you requested."

"Xuan Zi, and Xuan Zi's severed arm, you should return them to us as well."

Bibi Dong took the two storage spirit tools handed over by Mu En and released her Divine Thought to inspect them.

With her experience as the Supreme Pontiff, she naturally knew the weight of the resources in the two storage spirit tools.

"Hmm, Mu En, you are still smart; you did not play any little tricks."

"You have already redeemed this old thing, Xuan Zi, and I will also return that severed arm to you."

After speaking, Bibi Dong flipped her palm and tossed Xuan Zi's severed arm to Mu En opposite her.

Immediately after.

The figures of the three women, Bibi Dong, Zi Ji, and Qian Renxue, vanished from the spot.

But before the three women left, the gazes they cast toward Mu En and Yan Shaozhe were filled with a hint of interest and anticipation.

When Mu En's Mental Energy could no longer perceive the three women, Bibi Dong and the others, he breathed a sigh of relief.

He descended to the ground, untied the dog chain for Xuan Zi, and tossed Xuan Zi's severed arm to him.

"Xuan Zi, to redeem you and retrieve your arm this time, Shrek has paid a heavy price."

"I hope you can be more mature in the future and know when to advance or retreat."

Mu En instructed Xuan Zi with earnest and well-meaning words.

"Elder Mu, I understand."

Xuan Zi lowered his head, not daring to look Mu En in the eye.

Because he knew just how much loss he had brought upon Shrek Academy.

"Hmm, let us return to Shrek."

"After we return, this old man will help you reattach your severed arm, so that your Soul Power Rank can return to Rank 98."

"However, after this incident of losing your arm, unless you have a heaven-sent Opportunity, it will be impossible for you to step into Rank 99 Limit Douluo in the future."

Mu En said with some regret.

Soon, Mu En took Yan Shaozhe and Xuan Zi and left the Star Dou Great Forest, returning in the direction of Shrek Academy.

But an accident soon befell them.

Before they had even left the Star Dou Great Forest, they were blocked by a group of Vicious Beasts.

Di Tian stood in the center, with Bi Ji and Zi Ji standing on either side of Di Tian.

Behind them were the beast-form Xiong Jun, Chi Wang, the King of Ten Thousand Demons, and Yao Ling.

Facing the aggressive Star Dou Vicious Beasts, Mu En felt a massive headache and faced immense pressure.

Having just escaped the tiger's den, they had now entered the wolf's lair.

"Di Tian, you have brought a group of Vicious Beasts to intercept me; what is your intention?"

Mu En faced Di Tian directly, wanting to know Di Tian's intentions.

"Mu En, the debt that your Shrek Academy owes our Star Dou Great Forest must be repaid!"

Di Tian said in an icy tone, his gaze toward the three of them filled with danger, as if he would strike at any moment.

"Debt? When has our Shrek ever owed your Star Dou Great Forest any debt?"

At this moment, Yan Shaozhe stepped forward and said with a look of dissatisfaction.

"Heh, over these ten thousand years, how many Spirit Beasts over ten thousand years old have your Shrek members killed in our Star Dou Great Forest?"

"Even among 100,000-year Spirit Beasts, there are enough to count on both hands. This debt, you must repay."

After Di Tian finished speaking, the eyes of the Vicious Beasts beside him revealed a fierce light, and their faces showed expressions of anger.

Over the past ten thousand years, the one that had dealt the most vicious blows to their Star Dou Great Forest was Shrek Academy.

Just the Mu En and Xuan Zi before them had the lives of three 100,000-year Spirit Beasts on their hands.

Not to mention, those Sea God Pavilion Masters in Shrek's history who reached the Limit Douluo level all possessed at least one 100,000-year spirit ring.

Although they might not have been Spirit Beasts from their Star Dou Great Forest, they were still members of the Spirit Beasts.

This debt, their Star Dou Great Forest would collect it all at once.

Yan Shaozhe did not agree with Di Tian's statement and retorted:

"It is only natural for Spirit Masters to hunt Spirit Beasts; you Spirit Beasts also frequently kill our Spirit Masters."

"The debt you speak of is simply invalid!"

At this time, the notoriously hot-tempered Xiong Jun could no longer hold back.

He looked at Di Tian in the lead:

"Di Tian, let's just beat the hell out of them. The biggest characteristic of this group from Shrek is that they are shameless."

"We don't need to reason with them; we just need to see whose fist is bigger. When they realize they are dead, they will be afraid."

Hearing this, Di Tian thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"Since they are from Shrek, we do not need to reason with them."

As soon as the words fell.

Di Tian waved his palm, using space power to separate Mu En, who was a Limit Douluo, from Yan Shaozhe and Xuan Zi.
