Chapter 1678: Exchange Student (Please Subscribe)_1
Yuanen Yehui showed a skeptical expression, "Are you sure? I remember last time you got beaten up so badly your nose was swollen and your face was bruised!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Zhengyu's face showed a wronged expression as he explained, "That was different. Last time Xie Xie had no sense of honor and called on Ye Xinglan. Otherwise, they would have been the ones lying on the ground foaming at the mouth!"
His strength was indeed formidable, but it was far from Yuanen Yehui's capability to fight one against five!
Moreover, with Xie Xie and Ye Xinglan's talents not falling short of his own, it wasn't surprising that he lost!
But in the very next second, his brow furrowed as he said, "Wait a minute, I didn't say we're going to do a two against seven like last time either!"
Yuanen Yehui asked in surprise, "Then what do you want to do?"
Yue Zhengyu patted his chest proudly and boasted, "Since it's a team battle, only seven against seven can truly capture the essence. So, let's call the other inner court students to join us!"
Yuanen Yehui propped his chin and said, "In that case, it would be a complete steamroll...unless we all suppress our soul power ranks to that of a Soul King!"
Yue Zhengyu narrowed his eyes, "Well, thinking back on the last match, it relied entirely on your individual strength. But if we suppress our soul power ranks to that of a Soul King, we may not necessarily be a match for Tang Wulin and his team!"
Yuanen Yehui seemed to find some reason in that, recalling the scenario in his mind...
After a while, he spoke seriously, "Hmm, Tang Wulin and their coordination indeed seemed very in tune! I agree with your suggestion this time."
Whether it was Xu Xiaoyan's control skills or Gu Yue's command, along with the others' unconditional trust in the latter, it was all worth learning from!
But after a pause, he hesitated, "But the biggest problem is getting the other inner court students to agree!"
Yue Zhengyu snapped his fingers confidently, "That's easy, we just need to explain to the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion, after all... with our talents, we should not be refused!"
Take that, Xie Xie. This time, no one will help you!
...
On the other side, within the Xingluo Empire's great hall!
Dai Tianling, sitting on the throne, looked down at Dai Yun'er below, squeezing out a bit of a smile onto his unpleasant face...
Contrary to him, the standing Daijins seemed somewhat dissatisfied, but they hid their moods quite well...
The Daijins reminded her collectively, "Your Royal Highness the Princess, we are discussing important matters with Your Majesty! If you have something to say, it can wait until after."
"Yes, Your Royal Highness the Princess, with evil Soul Masters running rampant, we must devise a strategy in advance!"
"Princess, His Majesty is currently troubled by the evil Soul Masters' affairs, trivial matters should be set aside for now."
Upon hearing this, Dai Yun'er's face turned colder, "Are you saying that my matters are trivial?"
The Daijins went pale and then flush upon hearing this, yet they dared not retort...
After all, everyone knew how indulgent Dai Tianling was towards his daughter!
Dai Yueyan too pressed a hand to his forehead, thinking to himself, "My sister really doesn't give the Daijins any respect!"
And as expected, Dai Tianling was not annoyed, but instead asked kindly, "Yun'er, you've rushed into the great hall so abruptly, is there something you wish to talk about?"
Dai Yun'er blinked her beautiful eyes, "Father, there's something I would like to have your approval for!"
Dai Tianling asked with curiosity, "What is it? Feel free to speak."
Dai Yun'er's expression was resolute as she said, "I want to go to Shrek Academy!"
Since her willful nature was nothing new in the eyes of these Daijins, being willful one more time didn't matter!
Dai Tianling's expression suddenly grew serious, "That's out of the question, Yun'er. You know the situation in Xingluo Land; how can you leave rashly!"
"If something really were to happen in Soul Land, the Xingluo Empire wouldn't have the spare energy to investigate!
Dai Yun'er coquettishly pleaded, "Father~, just agree to it! I promise I won't fall behind in my cultivation!"
Dai Tianling declared adamantly, "No matter what you say, it's not possible!"
The corners of Dai Yun'er's eyes reddened slightly, and she angrily turned her head away, "Hmph, I won't bother with Father anymore!"
Seeing this, Dai Tianling couldn't help but sigh, "Yun'er, my refusal is all for the sake of your safety!"
Dai Yun'er's head shook like a rattle-drum, "I'm not listening, I'm not listening!"
The other Daijin exchanged glances at this ridiculous scene, reading each other's thoughts...
Thus, one of them took the initiative to say, "Your Majesty, I think Her Royal Highness the Princess's proposal is excellent. It will not only deepen our Xingluo Empire's relationship with Shrek Academy but also indirectly urge the dispatch of an Elder from the Sea God's Pavilion for support."
"Your Majesty, I also agree with what Her Royal Highness has said. Instead of staying within the bounds of Xingluo Land, where evil Soul Masters are rampant, it would be much safer for Her Royal Highness to go to Shrek Academy!"
"Exactly, although Her Royal Highness's strength is not weak, she may still be insufficient against an evil Soul Master and could likely become a primary attack target!"
Were they all supporting Dai Yun'er? Of course not, they simply wanted her to leave quickly, so as not to interfere with the upcoming discussions...
Hearing these words, Dai Yun'er cast a surprised glance at them, thought secretly, "These guys actually agree? What exactly are they plotting?"
But, well, as long as they support me, that's enough!
Indeed, upon hearing the Daijin's remarks, hesitation appeared on Dai Tianling's face...
Indeed, Shrek Academy was much safer than the current state of the Xingluo Empire!
Moreover, there was a time when Dai Yun'er had been captured by an evil Soul Master from the Holy Spirit Cult and subjected to inhuman torture. If not for Elder Xu of the Sea God's Pavilion, the consequences would have been unimaginable!
At this moment, his thoughts began to waver!
Dai Yueyan, who had been silent all this time, also stepped forward and spoke respectfully, "Father, I also agree with allowing Yun'er to go to Shrek Academy. As for the reason, we could appoint her as a foreign exchange student from the Xingluo Empire!"
He was well aware of the hints in the Daijin's remarks, but sending Dai Yun'er to Shrek Academy was indeed not a bad idea!
Dai Yun'er's beautiful eyes sparkled, and she quickly pleaded, "Father, you see the ministers and brother all think it's no problem, and as the one who dotes on Yun'er the most..."
Dai Tianling took a deep breath and said helplessly, "Alright, alright, I agree to you going to Shrek Academy."
He knew Dai Yun'er's temperament well—once she was refused, she would certainly not give up easily!
Dai Yun'er's face lit up with joy, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Thank you, Father, I knew you loved me the most!"
Going to Shrek Academy, would I be able to meet Elder Xu? Just the thought of it is exciting!
Dai Tianling's mouth twitched, "I wonder who was just saying she would pay me no heed!"
Dai Yun'er flashed an innocent look, "Father...I was just...afraid that you would refuse..."
Dai Tianling laughed softly, "Alright, now that your issue is resolved, you may leave the hall first."
Although he doted on Dai Yun'er, he also valued the Xingluo Empire greatly!
