Chapter 3415: Backlash

At the same time, the battlefield ruins!

Tang Wulin and his two companions hurried to the scene at their fastest speed, and found the students assigned for patrol today…

All the students clasped their fists and said, "Hall Master Tang, Elder Yuan'en, Elder Xu, we've been waiting here for a long time!"

Tang Wulin nodded slightly, "Mmm, you've worked hard. Have there been any unusual changes during the time it took us to get here?"

Upon hearing this, one of them immediately responded, "Hall Master, other than occasionally feeling a sense of palpitations, there haven't been any other changes!"

"However, it can't be ruled out that we, being of lesser strength, haven't noticed,"

Given this response, Tang Wulin propped his chin thoughtfully, "I see… then it seems that the situation is more complicated than we expected!"

If there were other abnormalities, the situation could be assessed more quickly!

But, with only the occasional palpitations, there's no clear way to investigate…

With this in mind, he looked to Yuanen Yehui and Xu Xiaoyan and asked, "Ye Hui, Xiao Yan, what are your thoughts?"

Yuanen Yehui hesitated for a moment, "Wulin, I think based solely on these few words from the students, it's hard to pinpoint the reason. Perhaps it's best if we stay here and feel it for ourselves!"

Xu Xiaoyan blinked her eyes, "Exactly, I agree with Ye Hui's suggestion. With our spiritual power, perhaps we could sense different conditions!"

Tang Wulin also gladly accepted this proposal, "Hmm… let's do as Ye Hui suggested!"

Indeed, without experiencing it ourselves, we can't resolve the matter!

"Let's take up different positions and then patiently wait!"

After aligning on this plan, the three of them went to different locations, closed their eyes, sat cross-legged, and expanded their spiritual power to the farthest range, sensing in all directions…

Meanwhile, the Shrek students standing dumbly in the center couldn't help but look towards their captain…

"Captain, what should we do? Just stand here?"

"With the Hall Master and the Elders here, shouldn't we leave?"

"Don't talk such nonsense, don't you see that the matter isn't resolved yet? How can we leave on our own!"

The latter glanced around and then suggested, "The Hall Master and the Elders are fully absorbed in sensing this space, so they probably can't pay constant attention to their surroundings!"

"We, with our limited abilities, can't help much, so let's just keep watch around to prevent any disturbances to them!"

This was probably the only thing they could do right now!

...

After waiting silently for half an hour, Tang Wulin and his companions suddenly felt a strong sense of palpitations wash over them…

Even they felt quite oppressed…

However, the sensation lasted only a few minutes before it completely disappeared, returning to calm…

Only then did Tang Wulin open his eyes and look towards Yuanen Yehui and Xu Xiaoyan, "Ye Hui, Xiao Yan, you must have felt it too, right?"

Yuanen Yehui pursed her lips and answered, "Hmm, indeed, just as these students described, it was an extremely oppressive sense of palpitation, even I found it uncomfortable!"

As for Xu Xiaoyan, she did not respond. Her face was visibly distressed, and her breathing had quickened…

Tang Wulin furrowed his brows, expressing his concern, "Xiao Yan, are you alright?"

Although she had also reached the level of a Hyper Douluo, her physical constitution was still somewhat poor…

Apparently, she was not feeling well!

Xu Xiaoyan came back to reality and shook her head, "No… no, it's just that the palpitations felt somewhat overwhelming to me!"

"However, besides this sense of palpitations, I seem to have faintly sensed a subtle change in the space here!"

"If I'm not mistaken, it may be related to the black hole that appeared originally!"

Tang Wulin was initially stunned, "Ye Hui, do you feel this situation?"

Yuanen Yehui shook his head, "I can only feel that palpitation, nothing beyond that!"

Tang Wulin agreed, "Neither do I, so does this mean that only Xiao Yan felt the fluctuation of this space?"

Xu Xiaoyan found it hard to believe, "Eh... Wulin, Ye Hui, you didn't feel such obvious spatial fluctuations?"

Tang Wulin smiled bitterly, "Maybe it has something to do with your specialty in Spatial Soul Skills!"

Of course, if it were Gu Yue, perhaps she could feel it even clearer!

Xu Xiaoyan scratched her head, "Then...what should we do? If only I can feel it, we can't figure out the situation!"

Yuanen Yehui patted her shoulder, "Xiao Yan, why don't you try using a Spatial Soul Skill in this area?"

The former was a bit confused, "Ye Hui, I somewhat don't understand what you mean!"

Tang Wulin's eyes lit up, immediately grasping the other's intention, "Ye Hui, do you mean... to let Xiao Yan's Spatial Soul Skill resonate with the spatial fluctuations?"

Yuanen Yehui nodded, "Yeah, if it succeeds, maybe... we could also go back to the past!"

Xu Xiaoyan looked incredulous as if she had heard a secret, "Eh, is that even possible? If we really go back to the past, won't we be unable to return?"

Yuanen Yehui laughed softly, soothingly said, "Don't worry Xiao Yan, it's not that simple to succeed, besides, it's only my speculation!"

Tang Wulin also echoed, "Yes, Xiao Yan, this space only showed very slight fluctuations, it might not be successful!"

Seeing this, Xu Xiaoyan could only agree, "Alright, since you both say so, I'll give it a try, but whether it works or not isn't up to me!"

After speaking, a wand appeared in her hand and a Soul Ring lit up beneath her feet...

With a casual wave, an incredibly strong force of space suddenly unfolded...

Everyone thought nothing would happen, but unexpectedly the entire space began to violently tremble, as if about to collapse...

Even a piercing noise was heard...

"Buzz buzz buzz!!"

Yuanen Yehui joyfully said, "Xiao Yan's soul skill can actually resonate with this space!"

Tang Wulin was also somewhat excited, "Doesn't that mean, we really might be able to go back to the past!"

Perhaps, this was a way to see Teacher Xu again!

But before they could finish speaking, with a "Crack", the space instantly shattered, and in the blink of an eye, everything returned to calm as if nothing had happened...

Because the space shattered, Xu Xiaoyan, whose Soul Skill was forcibly interrupted, naturally suffered a backlash...

She spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back a few steps...

Yuanen Yehui quickly stepped forward, reaching out to catch her...

"Xiao Yan, how did you get hurt?"

Xu Xiaoyan wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, explaining, "My Spatial Soul Skill was abruptly interrupted, causing some backlash, but it wasn't too severe!"

Just a moment ago, she felt that if she hadn't stopped, she might have been gravely injured!
