Chapter 3016: The Best Candidate_1

Liang Xiaoyu was scared by these agitated Douluo Hall disciples too...

Although he had anticipated their dissatisfaction, he did not expect it to be this exaggerated...

He immediately tried to soothe them by saying, "Everyone, please calm down. It's not that I want to strip Hall Master Guo of his position in the Battle Soul Hall. After all, it's the Sect Leader's command, and I have no choice but to carry it out!"

"So, please, do not act rashly!!"

However, these words not only failed to pacify the disciples of the Douluo Hall, but they actually incited them even further...

"Hall Master Liang, it's impossible for us to agree. The only person who can be the Hall Master of the Douluo Hall is Hall Master Guo, no one else is acceptable!"

"Even if the Sect Leader can control the entire Tang Sect, he shouldn't do something as treacherous as to cast aside an old friend like this. If you really strip Hall Master Guo of his position, then I will leave the Tang Sect!"

"Well said. No matter who becomes the Hall Master of the Douluo Hall, in my heart, I only acknowledge Hall Master Guo. When that time comes, don't blame me for not showing respect!"

These words caused a look of distress to appear on Liang Xiaoyu's face...

He could certainly use his power to suppress these disciples of the Douluo Hall and shut them up...

But doing so might create a rift between the Douluo Hall and the Tang Sect, and might even lead to a large number of disciples leaving the sect!

With this in mind, he turned his gaze towards Guo Xiaoxu...

Upon hearing this, she clearly understood what the outcome of such developments would be...

She immediately erupted with a terrifying pressure, bellowing, "Disciples of the Douluo Hall, heed my command and shut your mouths!"

"This is an order personally issued by the Sect Leader. As a member of the Tang Sect, I naturally have no reason to refuse, and the same goes for all of you!"

"Moreover, it's just the removal from the position of Hall Master. How big a deal is it to make such a fuss?"

This scene directly left the Douluo Hall disciples stunned...

They had been voicing their grievances on behalf of the former, but they ended up being rebuked by her...

A strange emotion rose in their hearts...

After glaring fiercely, they left in a huff...

It was only then that Liang Xiaoyu breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help asking, "Hall Master Guo, is this really okay? The disciples of the Douluo Hall seem to have a lot of complaints about you!"

He knew that Guo Xiaoxu was intentionally acting this way to shift the disciples' dissatisfaction onto himself...

Guo Xiaoxu gave him a glance and explained, "No worries. After today, I will no longer be the Hall Master of the Douluo Hall. Whether they hate me or not, it won't affect the new Hall Master!"

"This way, I'm also reducing some troubles for them," she said.

Liang Xiaoyu instantly saw her in a more profound light...

He clenched his fist and said, "Hall Master Guo... rest assured, if there's a chance, I will persuade the Sect Leader to restore your position as the Hall Master of the Douluo Hall."

"But for the time being, just take a break!"

Guo Xiaoxu smiled faintly and did not reject the offer. "Hall Master Liang, then I thank you for your kindness," she said.

"If there's nothing else, you should go back. The Sect Leader still needs you by his side!"

Having said that, she turned her back...

Liang Xiaoyu wanted to say something more, but he suddenly sighed and left...

It was better to say nothing at all and let Hall Master Guo cool down for some time...

Afterward, it would be easier for him to persuade the Sect Leader to restore her position!

Only after he had completely left did Guo Xiaoxu raise her gaze to the sky...

He murmured, "The new Battle Soul Hall Master, I wonder whom the Sect Leader plans to appoint. It can't possibly be the disciple with the strongest power in the Battle Soul Hall, can it? That wouldn't be acceptable to everyone!"

...

At the same time!

Zang Xin, who was resting with his eyes closed in the room...

Upon hearing the door being pushed open, he quietly opened his eyes...

And immediately saw Liang Xiaoyu before him...

He saw the latter greet him with a fist and palm salute, "Sect Leader!"

Zang Xin asked casually, "Is that you, Hall Master Liang? You've returned, it seems that you have already reported the matter, right??"

Liang Xiaoyu nodded in affirmation, "Yes, Sect Leader, I have informed Hall Master Guo as well as the Battle Soul Hall disciples of the specifics!

Zang Xin pursed his lips and followed up, "What was the result?? Hall Master Guo didn't get angry, did he?"

Even if Guo Xiaoxu had flown into a rage, it would have been within his expectations!

After all, he was no longer that same calm and collected Hall Master Guo when facing issues!

Liang Xiaoyu didn't intend to hide anything and answered truthfully, "Hall Master Guo was somewhat surprised but didn't express any dissatisfaction. However, the Battle Soul Hall disciples..."

"They seem to have a lot of objections to your decision, even willing to leave the Tang Sect as a cost to demand the restoration of Hall Master Guo's position!"

Zang Xin's expression didn't change in the slightest, "That's not surprising. Guo Xiaoxu has been the Battle Soul Hall Master for many years and has deep bonds with those disciples!"

"It's only natural for them to be dissatisfied with the sudden revocation of his position as Hall Master!"

"However, the fact that Hall Master Guo himself doesn't feel dissatisfied is indeed quite rare!"

Liang Xiaoyu spoke up again, "Not only that... Hall Master Guo used his methods to quell the dissatisfaction of the Battle Soul Hall disciples..."

Zang Xin, who sensed the implication in his words, immediately interrupted, "That's enough... Hall Master Liang, I understand what you mean, but matters concerning Hall Master Guo should be set aside for now!"

"Next, there is another matter that I need you to handle!"

Liang Xiaoyu's topic was successfully diverted, and he asked with uncertainty, "Sect Leader, what is it??"

The former explained, "It's about the position of the Battle Soul Hall Master. I need you to visit Shrek Academy to see who, besides Wulin, is willing to take on the role!"

Liang Xiaoyu furrowed his brow, reminding, "Sect Leader, this... might not be appropriate. I think it would be better to wait until Wulin and the others return to the Tang Sect and then discuss it!"

He felt that going on his own might be a bit too hasty!!

After all, it was about selecting the successor for the position of Battle Soul Hall Master!

But Zang Xin merely rolled his eyes, "Hall Master Liang, you should know that Shrek Academy has been going through a lot lately. By the time Wulin and the others return to the Tang Sect, who knows how long that will be!"

"Sending you alone is to simplify the process and not waste time!!"

Without rushing to agree, Liang Xiaoyu probed tentatively, "Then... in your opinion, Sect Leader, who would be suitable for the position of Battle Soul Hall Master?"

Zang Xin very straightforwardly expressed his thoughts...

"As of now, Yue Zhengyu, Xie Xie, and Ye Xinglan seem suitable for the position of Battle Soul Hall Master!"

"However, Yue Zhengyu is the Patriarch of the Angel Family and will definitely refuse the proposal. Xie Xie is an agile-attack class Soul Master, which makes it difficult to gain the approval of the Battle Soul Hall disciples!"

"Therefore, Ye Xinglan remains the best candidate!"

"But this is just my personal opinion. In truth, any of the Shrek Seven Monsters would be suitable to take on the role of Battle Soul Hall Master!"

After all, they are all Super Douluo level powerhouses!!
