Chapter 32 Xuan Zi's Decision_1

```

"If Dai Yueheng could hear what you're saying now, he would be deeply moved,"

Wang Yan sighed.

All were good children from Shrek Academy, so why did they have to suffer such a great catastrophe?

How unfair fate was.

As someone who had wholeheartedly devoted himself to Shrek, Wang Yan's heart was on the verge of collapse.

One must know.

These people were all outstanding talents of Shrek Academy. Had things developed normally, the academy would have shone because of them.

"Wang Yan teacher, come quickly, we've found Xiao Tao Sister!"

"Teacher Wang, please come and see what has happened to Xiao Tao Sister."

Not giving Wang Yan much time to grieve, another round of shouting snapped his thoughts back to the present.

"First, take your brother out of the cave, I'll go and have a look,"

Wang Yan instructed hurriedly, got up, and headed in the direction of the voices.

Dai Huabin nodded heavily, picked up Dai Yueheng, and step by step made his way out of the cave.

Although Dai Yueheng's body gave him a heavy feeling, Dai Huabin's heart felt incredibly light.

This was settled.

Absolutely settled.

A person with a lifelong disability, whose cultivation level had stopped at Soul Sage, what did he have to compete with him?

As long as he developed steadily, he could become a Titled Douluo.

His father, who fought on the frontier, should know what the right choice was, shouldn't he?

...

"Xiao Tao, what's wrong with you?"

Following the voices, Wang Yan found Beibei and the others, as well as Ma Xiaotao sitting against the wall.

However, Ma Xiaotao seemed unaware of his arrival, staring blankly ahead as if lost in thought.

"Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao, will you speak!"

Wang Yan called out again.

But Ma Xiaotao was as if she had lost her soul.

"Teacher Wang, don't call anymore. We've been calling Xiao Tao Sister for a while now, but she seems as if she can't hear us,"

Beibei said, shaking his head helplessly.

Wang Yan's gaze flickered as he squatted down beside Ma Xiaotao.

He observed her carefully.

One thing was certain, Ma Xiaotao did not have any substantial physical injuries, not even a wound...

"She might be in shock,"

Wang Yan said, frowning.

He had heard a thing or two about Ma Xiaotao.

This girl could not be defined by normal standards.

It wasn't too hard to accept that something out of the ordinary might happen to her.

To be honest, it was Ma Xiaotao who had joined Shrek Academy. Her talent had also been recognized by the many bigwigs of Shrek Academy.

Otherwise, if this girl had been outside, she would have been a surefire evil Soul Master.

Not to mention, every time Ma Xiaotao lost control, if not for the powerful individuals from Shrek Academy devising methods to suppress it, there's no telling how many people would have died untimely deaths.

In the original story, if Huo Yuhao hadn't had the help of the Skydream Ice Silkworm, he would have basically been done for.

"Teacher Wang, is Xiao Tao Sister really okay like this?"

"Whether there is a problem or not, I do not know,"

Wang Yan shook his head. If it had been someone else, he might have had an idea or two, but with Ma Xiaotao, he did not dare to presume.

After a moment's thought, he added, "Compared to others, this is probably the best outcome."

The Shrek Main Team of seven, four will rest here forever, tragically their bodies not even kept intact.

Dai Yueheng and Ling Luochen, although both alive, had paid a heavy price.

Dai Yueheng was essentially a cripple, a budding talent at the Titled Douluo Level but now destined only for the Soul Sage realm for the rest of his life.

Ling Luochen fared slightly better than Dai Yueheng. If a top Healing Soul Master from Soul Land could be asked to treat her, there might still be a chance to save Ling's potential to become a Titled Douluo.

Of course, this was predicated on the willingness to spend a significant amount of resources.

So comparatively, Ma Xiaotao, with all limbs intact and no injuries, was absolutely the luckiest.

"Let's go, let's head outside the cave. It's not suitable to stay here for long..."

Wang Yan frowned as he looked around and said with a heavy voice, "Jiang Nannan, you're a girl, you lead Xiao Tao Sister out."

He couldn't bear to stay in this place another moment.

It was a place of heartache.

...

"Elder Xuan has been gone so long, what's taking him so long to return?

Could there have been some kind of problem?"

The group had been waiting outside the cave for quite a while, but Xuan Zi had not returned.

Xu Sanshi expressed his concern.

Upon hearing this, everyone's face showed different expressions.

Of course, everyone was very good at concealing their feelings, not daring to show them openly.

For instance, Wang Yan's face showed disgust and deep hatred.

Mentioning that old drunk who could screw things up but never accomplish anything worthwhile filled him with rage.

To think that a Level 98 Titled Douluo leading the team had caused such severe damage, what else was there to live for?

He hadn't held back on the boasts, but failed to accomplish a single thing.

Previously, Xuan Zi himself said that if anything went wrong, he might as well find a block of tofu to kill himself with; Wang Yan hoped that he would keep his promise and atone with his death.

But on second thought, he felt that was also wishful thinking.

No matter how outrageous Xuan Zi was, he surely wouldn't fail to deal with even a Soul King, would he?

Rumble...

However, not long after Xu Sanshi's words fell, thunderous sounds rolled through the sky.

A streak of light arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye.

The light faded, revealing the figure of Xuan Zi.

The people looked at him, but did not address him with the usual respectful title of Elder Xuan.

Xuan Zi too looked at the people, his brow slightly furrowed, then he said in a deep voice, "I have returned. That fellow was very cunning, but in the end, I managed to knock him off the cliff."
