Sea God's Pavilion!

As soon as all the Elders arrived, they immediately noticed Xu Sheng!

Turbid World's face lit up with joy as he exclaimed, "Elder Xu, you've finally returned. If you hadn't come back, we might have thought something had happened to you!"

Feng Wu Yu also stroked his beard in agreement, "Indeed, Elder Xu's strength is not inferior to the Pavilion Master. With him here, we can rest easy!"

Yuanen Zhentian pursed his lips, "If we disregard certain factors, I would even recommend Elder Xu for the position of Sea God Pavilion Master!"

Xu Sheng offered a faint smile, "You all flatter me too much, the ability of Shrek Academy to survive multiple crises relies on the strength of all the Elders present, not just me alone!"

Long Yeyue's mood was also noticeably good, "Alright, since Elder Xu has returned after much difficulty, let's not dwell on this matter anymore!"

Elder Ya'li's beautiful eyes twinkled as she softly inquired, "Since that's the case, Elder Xu, I have a question for you!"

Xu Sheng glanced at her, "Please go ahead, Elder Ya'li..."

Elder Ya'li took a deep breath, "I heard that after you left the Academy, you went to the Blood God Army, and even obtained the rank of colonel in a short period of time. Can you explain why you did that?"

"Of course, we did not send anyone to surveil you, Elder Xu. It just so happens that the Blood God Army mentioned it!"

Seemingly worried about Xu Sheng overthinking, she quickly added another line...

Not only did Xu Sheng pause for a moment, but the other Elders fell silent too...

Elder Ya'li really was quite direct, taking the initiative to ask the question!

Then, Xu Sheng chose not to hide anything and calmly replied, "I didn't have any particular intention, I just wanted to take a simple look at the abyss that the Blood God Army is suppressing!"

Long Yeyue narrowed her eyes, "Then, Elder Xu, did you gain anything from this trip?"

A simple look, was it really that straightforward?

Xu Sheng's expression became stern, "Indeed there was. After slaying over a dozen lower-tier Abyssal Emperors, I have roughly estimated that the strength of the lower and middle-tier Abyssal Emperors is about between a Titled Douluo and a Hyper Douluo!"

"As for the eighteen high-tier Abyssal Emperors, the strength of any one of them is no less than that of Elder Long!"

Once these words were spoken, all the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion showed shocked expressions...

Turbid World furrowed his brows, "Eighteen Abyssal Emperors with strength that is no less than Elder Long, how is that possible?"

Tang Yinmeng nodded, "Yes, Elder Long's strength is almost comparable to the Pavilion Master's. If the strength of those eighteen high-tier Emperors is above hers, how were those terrible beings sealed in the first place!"

Lan Muzi's expression also turned grave, "Elder Xu, it seems you might be overestimating the Abyssal Emperors' strength."

Yuanen Zhentian shook his head, "I also find it hard to believe that if the Abyssal Emperors were truly that strong, Soul Land would have been devoured long ago!"

Xu Sheng did not elaborate further, "Perhaps, this is just my prediction and should not be taken as fact!"

This was just the warning he was giving to the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion. If they chose not to believe it, he would not insist!

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Long Yeyue spoke with a very serious tone, "No… I believe in Teacher Xu's judgment. The high-end combat power of the abyss is definitely not something that human Soul Masters can withstand."

Although she had never personally been to the abyss, she had heard a saying from Yun Ming!!

"Among the eighteen high-tier Emperors of the abyss, more than half possess strength that surpasses the Ruthless Douluo!!"

Therefore, she believed in Xu Sheng's judgment!

This scene caused the faces of the other Elders to grow heavy...

Certainly, everyone understood that Elder Long Yeyue had her reasons for choosing to trust.

Feeling the atmosphere was somewhat off, Cai Yue'er coughed lightly, "Let's set aside the abyss matter for now; while all the Elders are here, we should discuss matters concerning the Academy."

...

Sea God's Pavilion!

When all the Elders had arrived, they saw Xu Sheng right away.

Turbid World said with a delighted face, "Elder Xu, at last you have returned. Had you not come back, we would have thought something happened to you!"

Feng Wu Yu too stroked his beard, adding, "Indeed, Elder Xu's strength is not inferior to the Pavilion Master's. With you here, we can rest assured!"

Yuan En Zhentian pursed his lips, "If we put aside some factors, I would even recommend Elder Xu for the position of Sea God Pavilion Master!"

Xu Sheng smiled slightly, "You all flatter me too much. Shrek Academy has managed to survive numerous difficulties because of every Elder present, not just because of me!"

Elder Long Yeyue's mood was clearly good too, "Alright, Elder Xu has made it back with difficulty, let's not dwell on this issue any longer!"

Elder Ya'li's beautiful eyes flickered as she asked softly, "Since that is the case, Elder Xu, may I ask you a question?"

Xu Sheng glanced at her, "Elder Ya'li, please speak…"

Elder Ya'li took a deep breath, "I heard that after you left the Academy, you went to the Blood God Army and even achieved the military rank of Colonel in a short amount of time. Can you explain why you did this?"

"Of course, we haven't sent anyone to surveil you, Elder Xu, it was just something the Blood God Army happened to mention!"

She seemed worried that Xu Sheng might misunderstand and quickly added...

Not only was Xu Sheng stunned for a moment, even the other Elders fell into silence...

Elder Ya'li is really straightforward, daring to take the initiative to ask such a question!

Without choosing to conceal anything, Xu Sheng replied calmly, "There was no particular reason; I was merely curious to see the abyss that the Blood God Army was suppressing!"

Elder Long Yeyue narrowed her eyes, "Then, Elder Xu, did you gain anything from this trip?"

Merely taking a look, was it truly that simple?

Xu Sheng's expression turned serious, "Indeed, I did. By slaying over a dozen Abyssal Emperors from the lower levels, I have roughly estimated the strength of the Abyssal Emperors of the lower and middle levels to be between Titled Douluo and Hyper Douluo!"

"As for the eighteen Abyssal Emperors of the upper level, each of their strengths is no less than Elder Long's!"

Upon hearing this, the faces of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion showed expressions of astonishment...

Turbid World frowned, "Eighteen Abyssal Emperors, each with strength no less than Elder Long's, how is that possible!"

Tang Yinmeng nodded, "Indeed, Elder Long's strength is almost on par with the Pavilion Master's. If the strength of those eighteen upper-level Emperors is above hers, how were those terrifying beings sealed in the first place!"

Lan Muzi also spoke with a serious tone, "Elder Xu, you may have overestimated the strength of the Abyssal Emperors."

Yuan En Zhentian shook his head, "I also find it hard to believe that if the Abyssal Emperors were really that strong, our Soul Land would have long been devoured!"

Xu Sheng did not explain further, "Perhaps, this is just my estimation and should not be taken as the absolute truth!"

This was merely a warning he gave to the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion; if they didn't believe it, he wouldn't insist!

However, no sooner had he spoken than Elder Long Yeyue said with an incredibly serious tone, "No... I believe in Teacher Xu's judgment. The high-end combat power of the abyss is absolutely not something we human Soul Masters can withstand."
