Chapter 2352: A Dilemma_1

```

However, with each step they took, their hearts grew heavier...

For the bodies of their comrades were scattered everywhere...

It wasn't until they reached the outer courtyard square that they finally found Shen Yi and the academy teachers lying in pools of blood...

"That's... Dean Shen and the academy teachers!"

"Hiss... Dean Shen's arm, it was forcibly torn off; these evil Soul Masters are truly heartless and cruel!"

"Everyone, check the students' bodies separately, there might still be survivors!!"

Upon hearing this, some students quickly dispersed to search around...

The leading teacher immediately teleported next to Shen Yi and closed his eyes to sense carefully...

After a long while, one of the students swallowed hard, unable to restrain himself, he asked, "Teacher, Dean Shen and the other teachers..."

The former reopened his eyes, showing an expression of grief-stricken desperation...

"Dean Shen, she no longer has any signs of life; we're too late!"

This time, the Holy Spirit Cult must have sent Four Heavenly Kings level experts to take action!

Otherwise, the academy would certainly not have fallen!

And the students who were previously trying to find survivors also bowed their heads...

"Teacher, we've searched thoroughly. Inside the academy... not a single student survived, all dead at the hands of evil Soul Masters!"

"Damn the Holy Spirit Cult! To think they would launch a covert attack on the academy while the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion were away in the abyss! Despicable and shameless!"

"What should we do? The fate of the Sea God Pavilion's Elders in the abyss is uncertain, and Dean Shen has sacrificed herself..."

"Could it be that our Shrek Academy is really going to perish?"

The teacher suppressed the anger in his heart, "No, Shrek Academy has not perished, at least we are still alive. All of you, notify the federation and the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion who are far in the abyss about this event..."

Now that Shrek Academy has been destroyed, the only thing they could do was to relay the news to the ears of the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion!

If only they could return safely, then Shrek Academy would still have the chance to continue!

The faces of the students showed a trace of determination, "Yes, Teacher!!"

...

Federation Members, having received the message, immediately barged into the conference room...

This led to all the Council Members present casting puzzled looks...

Seeing this, the Chairman spoke in a cold voice, "As Federation Members, how dare you barge into the conference room without prior notice?"

The former felt a chill in his heart and said, steeling himself, "I apologize, Chairman. I did not intend to intrude; it's just that there is urgent information that needs to be reported!!"

The color of the Chairman's face eased slightly, "Speak!"

It was then that the Federation Member began to report, "A few minutes ago, Shrek Academy suffered an attack by Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters, a total annihilation!"

"Only a few students on patrol survived!"

As soon as the words were out, one Council Member exclaimed in shock, "What? Didn't we send a squad to investigate Shrek Academy? Why wasn't such a major event reported in time!"

Another Council Member said with a grim face, "Damn it... Isn't it obvious? The squad that went to investigate hasn't returned to the federation for so long; they must have been intercepted or killed by the evil Soul Masters of the Holy Spirit Cult!"

"It appears that the Holy Spirit Cult had long been prepared to destroy Shrek Academy!"

"Damn it, although I had anticipated it, I never thought the Holy Spirit Cult would really pull off such a thing at this crucial moment!"

The annihilation of Shrek Academy should have been good news for the federation!

But with the current state of affairs, with abyssal creatures eyeing the Human Plane hungrily, losing Shrek Academy is equivalent to losing a core force!

It is extremely disadvantageous for the upcoming confrontation!

Qiangu Qingfeng, with hands propped on his chin, turned to the Federation Member, asking, "Is this information accurate?"

```

The latter was stunned for a moment, then answered, "This intelligence report comes from a surviving Shrek student, so it should be accurate!"

Guan Yue's eyes narrowed with focus, "That means... no one has actually gone to confirm the situation at Shrek Academy, right?"

After a pause, she continued, "I will go to check on Shrek Academy. The rest of the Council Members may continue to discuss here!"

The Council Members had no objections...

The Chairman also nodded, "Hall Master Guan, then we'll trouble you to take a personal look!"

"No bother."

After uttering two words, Guan Yue quickly left...

It was only then that the Chairman continued, "Now that Shrek Academy has been destroyed, it is highly likely that the main force of the Holy Spirit Cult has already moved from the Xingluo Empire!"

"This poses a significant threat to Soul Land. I propose that the federation enter a level one alert."

The Council Members looked at each other, their thoughts apparently aligned!

"I agree!"

"I also agree. The Holy Spirit Cult dared to strike against Shrek Academy; next time, they could very well target the Great Sects, or even the federation itself!"

"Exactly, this isn't the Xingluo Empire where they can do as they please!!"

The Chairman pursed her thin lips, "Since there are no objections, then as of this day, the federation officially enters a level one alert!"

...

As Long Yeyue listened to the message coming from the communicator, her pupils constricted, exclaiming in shock, "What??"

Several Abyssal Emperors seized the opportunity and launched an attack together!

Long Yeyue, who had just reacted, had no chance to dodge and was sent flying backward, with blood spurting from her mouth...

Cai Yue'er, upon seeing this, angrily shouted, "Eighth soul skill, Silver Moonlight!"

After repelling the enemy before her, she instantly flashed to Long Yeyue's side and helped her up...

Glancing over at Ya Li not far away, she said, "Ya Li, Elder Long has been seriously injured..."

But Long Yeyue shook her head, her face showing a trace of exhaustion...

Cai Yue'er frowned, "Elder Long, what's wrong with you? It feels..."

Long Yeyue pushed herself to stand up, her voice solemn as she said, "Shrek Academy... has been destroyed!"

"Shen Yi died in battle, every student and teacher who was inside the academy sacrificed their lives!"

A stabbing pain went through Cai Yue'er's heart, and she spoke with anger, "How could such a major incident happen without the federation knowing? Could they have intentionally not provided support?"

Long Yeyue shook her head, "No... If the Holy Spirit Cult decided to destroy Shrek Academy, they wouldn't allow the federation to intervene!"

The federation could not possibly stand by while abyssal creatures invaded the Human Plane!

The only possibility was that the Holy Spirit Cult had made full preparations, preventing the attack's news from reaching the federation!

Though the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion were engaged in battle, their spiritual power was always dispersed around them, so naturally, they also heard every word of the two's conversation clearly...

Lan Muzi angrily shouted, "What, the academy has been destroyed? That accursed Holy Spirit Cult, to do this at such a time..."

Tang Yinmeng voiced her concern, "We don't know how long our battle with these abyssal creatures will last; we can't rush back!"

Yuan En Zhentian said sternly, "However angry we may feel, we must focus on the situation at hand, this place must not fall!"

If Shrek Academy was destroyed, the Yuan En Clan would certainly not be unscathed either!
