Tang Li remained silent for a moment, then took a deep look at Wang Dong'er, who had an angry expression, put away the Clear Sky Hammer and the Soul Ring, and bowed to Wang Dong'er.
"We wouldn't dare. Since the young sect leader is willing to protect them, we naturally won't say anything more." Tang Li glanced sideways at Bei Bei and the others who were still glaring at them angrily, and then a smile appeared on his lips.
"Brothers, let's retreat!"
Bang!
The meeting room door was slammed shut, but the atmosphere inside became even more oppressive.
"I'm leaving first. Xie Huanyue's injuries are probably quite serious. I'll go check on him." Ning Tian was too lazy to stay any longer. He tugged at Wu Feng's sleeve, and the two left the conference room one after the other.
After Ning Tian and Wu Feng started, the others left one after another, leaving only Wang Dong'er sitting silently in her seat.
Although everyone else nodded to her as they left, Wang Dong'er could tell that there was already some distance between them.
Without Huo Yuhao as a unifying force, their relationship was never as harmonious as in the original story. Coupled with the arrogant attitude of the Haotian Sect, it was undoubtedly another blow to this already fragile bridge.
It won't break, but some cracks are inevitable.
The reason they didn't completely break ties was entirely due to Wang Dong'er's good image in the eyes of others. In addition, it was during the competition, and it was not appropriate to cause internal conflict. Otherwise, the Shrek team's resentment towards the Haotian team might have been vented on her.
Wang Dong'er also understood that from today onwards, it would be difficult for others to treat her as a friend anymore.
Wang Dong'er slammed her fair and delicate fist hard on the conference table. The table, unable to bear the weight, finally collapsed. But Wang Dong'er didn't care about the table's fate. More than the throbbing pain in her fist, what bothered Wang Dong'er was her confused heart.
As she grew older, she felt as if she was constantly losing something. Many times, even when she wanted to do something, her subconscious would make her feel resistant.
Clearly—that's what she wanted to do.
This feeling intensified after Huo Yuhao began to disappear mysteriously and intermittently, and finally left Shrek Academy completely. It reached its peak when Huo Yuhao was seen sitting next to the disciples of the Body Sect, chatting and laughing while eating.
At that time, she should have gone to question Huo Yuhao, scolded him, and severed all ties between them.
Proud as she is, she cannot allow Huo Yuhao to remain her friend and partner after betraying Shrek Academy and betraying her trust and feelings. Wang Dong'er looks down on such a partner.
But just as she conceived the idea and was about to put it into action, that strange sense of resistance overwhelmed her again. Filled with anger and resentment, she left with Beibei and the others without saying a word.
This is not the style that Wang Dong'er should have.
She didn't know what was happening to her, but this sense of unease tormented her even in her dreams. It wasn't until the conflict between the Shrek team and the Haotian team that she finally understood what this feeling was.
It's about feelings.
"That's not my voice—"
"Young Master, are the people of Haotian Sect always like this?" Wu Feng, walking side by side with Ning Tian, frowned and crossed his arms. His ample bosom, which was about to burst out, gave off an unimaginable sense of oppression under the force of his arms. His dissatisfaction was not concealed in the slightest.
Although Ning Tian could be described as having a shapely figure, compared to Wu Feng, she appeared quite ordinary.
"Them—" Ning Tian pursed his lips, speechless for a moment.
It's hard to judge, but it certainly fits her stereotype of the Haotian Sect.
They think they're above everyone else, always looking down on people, acting like they're the most important person in the world, as if no one deserves their respect.
Although they do indeed have the qualifications.
Putting everything else aside, Tang Li, the leader of the Haotian team, is ridiculously strong. Since he is participating in the competition, his age is definitely no more than twenty years old. At this age, being able to cultivate to the Soul Saint level means that no matter what his personality is like, he is definitely not a weakling.
Even though his spirit ring configuration wasn't like Wang Dong'er's, which had a 40,000-year spirit ring, his second spirit ring had reached the purple thousand-year level, which was a leapfrog level. Coupled with the Clear Sky Hammer, a top-tier weapon spirit, no one in their Shrek team, except for Bei Bei, was even qualified to fight him.
The Evil Illusion Moon is the best example.
Even a defensive Soul Master at the Soul King level, after using multiple Soul Skills, couldn't withstand a single, casual swing of his hammer without using any Soul Skills.
This performance truly lives up to its reputation as the strongest offensive weapon spirit in the world.
arrogant?
They certainly have the right to be arrogant.
only----
As two of the three great sects from ten thousand years ago, it's fine if they don't meet normally, but once they do, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has become increasingly impoverished over the years. By her generation, even the young sect leader had to go out and find a husband. Not long ago, she was even rejected at the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, while the Haotian Sect was full of talented people.
This disparity made Ning Tian feel as if his heart was being branded with a hot iron, causing him immense torment.
They were both once among the top three sects, and their ancestors were all deities, yet the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School has fallen into such a wretched state.
It was only slightly better than the White Tiger Dai family, whose throne had been usurped. But no matter what, the Dai family still held a very high position in the Star Luo Empire. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School could only sit and wait for its resources to run out, watching the sect decline generation after generation.
"Perhaps we really need to find another way out for our sect. Following the insects won't make our sect bigger and stronger," Ning Tian thought to himself.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. Xie Huanyue seems to be dying. Let's get him treated quickly."
The same conversation took place in the rest area of the Haotian team.
"How can we make our sect bigger and stronger by following these insects?" Tang Feng, the second Soul Saint member of the Clear Sky Sect, said. "As the young sect leader of our Clear Sky Sect, you actually went to play house with those weaklings from Shrek Academy, and even told your elder brother to get lost for the sake of a few weaklings?"
"She's clearly just a wild girl who popped up out of nowhere, and she even stole your position as the young sect leader, brother. If you ask me—"
"Alright, Tang Feng, shut up!" Tang Li waved his hand impatiently, but the expression on his face was quite intriguing, indicating that he did not completely refute Tang Feng's words.
It's just that for certain reasons, they can't openly express their thoughts.
That's true. The young sect leader who was parachuted in not only brought a "divine decree" but also two super-powerful Douluo-level fathers. How could he, a weakling who hadn't even grown up yet, be allowed to express his opinion?
Does not expressing an opinion truly mean there are no complaints?
