《The Legend of The Grandmaster》Chapter 71

[ Imperial Palace ]
Xue Ye, who was pleased by his own wit, lightly shook the bell on the wooden table beside him, and soon an attendant entered the royal court.
He stepped forward and kneeled in front of the emperor, " Your Majesty. "
Xue Ye, who was already impatient, waved his hand, and a royal decree appeared in the attendant's hand. He said, " Take a squad, immediately go to Shrek Academy and invite the Dean and vice-dean. "
" Yes, your Majesty. " The person bowed again and left.
Usually, the Emperor only sends his decree to appoint a new person, yet this time, Xue Ye wanted to grant the title in person. This shows the importance he placed on Shrek academy or, rather on, Yu Xiaogang and others.
After a few minutes, the attendant returned to the royal court, but unlike before, his complexion was pale, and from the shortness of his breath, it was visible that he rushed had rushed back.
The Emperor also frowned after seeing his appearance, yet he waited patiently for the man to catch his breath and speak. Apart from frowning slightly, no other emotions were visible on his face.
After catching his breath for a moment, the attendant started speaking, " Your Majesty, the Dean and Vice-Dean's are not present in the academy. "
The Frown on Xue Ye's face grew, and he questioned back, " What happened, where are they? " There was a hint of anger in his tone.
Feeling the impatience and anger of the Emperor rising, he recounted everything without any hesitation.
" Your Majesty, the Clan head Ning Fengzhi supported Shrek academy with a million gold coins without receiving anything in return. "
Xue Ye thought to himself, ' Sure enough, I am still not decisive enough as compared to Ning Fengzhi. ' After hearing Ning Fengzhi's news, the Emperor felt more sure about his decision of granting them the title of Marquis.
Seeing that the Emperor started pondering after hearing him, the attendant stopped speaking and waited for his majesty's order.

How could Xue Ye, as the Emperor who ruled Heaven Dou Empire for decades, be a simple person? He knew that there was more to it. Xue Ye waved his hand and motioned the attendant to continue.
The attendant hesitated for a moment before he started speaking under Emperor's glare. He said, " Your Majesty, his highness Prince Xue Xing also appeared together with Poison Douluo. Prince Xue Xing openly asked Shrek Academy to submit to him in the royal family's name. "
" Moreover, Prince Xue Xing did not give up after getting rejected; instead, he asked Poison Douluo to take action and force the academy to submit. "
" The Dean and vice-deans of the academy have left with Poison Douluo to fight outside the city. "
" Your Majesty, everything had happened in the presence of various nobles; moreover, this information has spread over the entire city. It has caused major unrest among the deans of various academies. "
The attendant bowed his head and did not dare to look up after speaking.
Xue Ye's face became ugly as he continued to hear. Although his younger brother has done many things over the past years yet, he kept one eye open; the other closed as if indirectly agreeing with his deeds.
The Emperor finally understood the meaning of ' Pig teammate ' and felt if he didn't handle it properly, the consequences would be disastrous.
After taking a deep breath, he finally managed to curb the urge of slapping his younger brother to death and looked at the man kneeling in front of him, " Gather the royal guards; I will personally go to the Shrek Academy. "
Moreover, he also ordered one of his personal guards to stay at the gates and wait for the Poison Douluo and Golden Iron Triangle to return to the city.
Xue Ye could only hope that Poison Douluo wins; otherwise, it would become even more difficult for him to win the Golden Iron Triangle.

[ Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan ]
Ning Fengzhi said, " Vice-dean Wuji, let's be on the way. " He then looked at Sword Douluo and said, " Uncle Chen, I will bother you this time. "
Sword Douluo indifferently nodded, " Okay. "
Soon, the three of them stepped out of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and walked towards the Imperial Palace. On the way, they heard that the Emperor personally went to Shrek Academy; they also changed their destination to Shrek Academy.

[ Shrek Academy ]
Only Yin Shu was present on the scene to entertain the remaining guests.
Most of the people sitting here supported Prince Xue Xing and wanted to witness the result with their own eyes. Although many thought that Prince Xue Xing would win; still, some thought otherwise.
After a while, a guard walked towards Xue Xing and said, " Your highness Prince Xue Xing, the Emperor, has set out to visit Shrek academy, " and everyone's face changed after listening to the guard.
Xue Xing felt that his brother came to show his support and never thought that the Emperor might have come to oppose his actions.
Bishop Salas also started pondering; because, till now, the Emperor has never intervened in Prince Xue Xing's deeds. He suddenly felt that things might not go the way he wants and decided to leave the scene.
Salas stood up, waved his hand, and gestured his guards to follow. He walked towards Xue Xing and said, " Prince Xue Xing, I wish for your success; unfortunately, there is something which requires my presence. So, I won't be able to watch it with my own eyes. "
After speaking, Salas turned around and walked out with his guards, and immediately after stepping out, his pupils contracted slightly after seeing three people.
His mind started spinning, and Salas thought to himself, ' Fortunately, I decided to leave. ' Naturally, the three people standing in front of him were Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Zhao Wuji.
Salas cupped his hands and greeted them, " Greetings, your excellency Sword Douluo and Patriarch Ning. " He tactfully ignored Zhao Wuji beside them.
Ning Fengzhi smiled lightly and asked, " What happened, Bishop Salas? You seem to be in a hurry? "
Salas, who had a fake smile on his face, said in a polite tone, " I have some urgent work to attend, and I won't keep you occupied anymore. "
He had to be polite because the one standing in front of him was Sword Douluo, famous for the strongest attack power.
Without giving them a chance to reply, he started walking and soon left the area.
Ning Fengzhi shook his head and did not pay any more attention to him. He turned and looked at Zhao Wuji, and the latter immediately understood his intentions.
Instantly Zhao Wuji took a step forward and said, " Seniors, please follow me. "

[ Heaven Dou City's Gate ]
Four figures emerged from the forest and stopped in front of the gate for inspection.
Liu Erlong took out her token and showed it to the guards. After checking it, the guard allowed the four of them to enter the city.
As soon as they entered, a man suddenly stopped in front of them and said, " Seniors, the Emperor has asked me to escort you to the Imperial Palace. "
Although the guard's voice sounded confident, yet his back soaked with sweat because he saw Poison Douluo unconscious on Flender's back.
Yu Xiaogang flatly rejected, " No, we will return to the academy first and then go to the palace. "
Without waiting for the Guard's reply, they started walking towards the academy. The royal guard also clenched his teeth and decided to follow them.
