<h4>Chapter 297: Cruel Deration of War</h4>


    It only took a few minutes for all the teachers and students of the Divine Realm Academy to gather.


    A strong wind blew, and the dean appeared on the high tform.


    Seeing that the dean had actually personallye on stage to speak, the students all realized that something big had happened.


    The dean narrowed his eyes and looked up at the emergency rm overhead. He had been in office for more than 300 years, and this was the first time he had rung the rm.


    Thinking about what happenedst night, a look of pity appeared on the dean’s face.


    “At 11 amst night, six students from our eighth grade who were out on experiential training were murdered. At the critical moment, they crushed an emergency distress talisman. When our professor rushed to the scene to save them, these six students died…”


    The students covered their mouths in shock.


    Most of the students in the eighth grade were early-stage Masters.


    Six Master Beast Tamers had been killed. This was the pain of the Divine Realm Academy, and even more so the pain of the Holy Spirit Continent!


    “Who did it?!”


    “Dean, we must catch the murderer and avenge our seniors!” The students were enraged and cried out to seek justice for their deceased alumni.


    Sheng Xiao gestured for everyone to quieten down. When they saw that, everyone quietened down.


    The students thought that this was the main reason why they were gathered here today. Unknown to them, even more shocking news wasing.


    The dean revealed an even more shocking piece of news. He said, “At four in the morning today, our school received a notice from the Beast Tamer Alliance. We found out thatst night, 108 Beast Tamers were killed in Rakshasa Kingdom! There were 8 Grand Masters, 30 Supreme Masters, and 70 Masters!”


    Everyone was in an uproar.


    Yu Huang was shocked as well.


    After they left the Golden Auction Housest night, she and Sheng Xiao took a flying transport to the airport. They took the fastest flight back to Divine Realm Academy.


    They still did not know what had happened in Rakshasa Kingdomst night.


    Overnight, 108 beast tamers were killed!


    Was this the deration of war that the Blood Peacock spoke of?


    The way he dered war was indeed cruel.


    “Eight Grand Masters were killed overnight? Was it revenge? Which family did it?” Everyone subconsciously thought that it was a family seeking revenge.


    The dean extended his right hand and pressed it gently in the air. The students suddenly lost the ability to speak.


    The field instantly fell silent.


    The dean’s voice spread throughout the entire field. He said, “The murderer is a Prime Master who has awakened his peacock beast form!”


    The students trembled when they heard the words “Prime Master.”


    The dean said, “This person has always been hiding his identity. The Beast Tamer Alliance doesn’t have any information about him. Moreover, a professor also saw a peacock-shaped bloodstain mark on the corpse of a student. We reasonably suspect that there is an unknown organization on the Holy Spirit Continent with the Blood Peacock as the leader.”


    “This organization specializes in hunting and killing Beast Tamers. Over the years, many Beast Tamers have been secretly killed by them. The tragic casesst night were the Blood Peacock Organization dering war on the entire Holy Spirit Continent!”


    After the dean finished speaking, the field was terrifyingly silent.


    Some of the younger students’ legs went limp in fear. Meanwhile, some of the older students realized the seriousness of the matter and their expressions were very grave.


    This Blood Peacock was able to ughter 108 beast tamers overnight with just its own strength, and there were even 8 Grand Master experts amongst them. This obviously showed how terrifying its strength was.


    If such a person hid in the dark and waited for an opportunity to act, the Holy Spirit Continent would probably wee a reign of terror.


    The dean stared at the youthful faces below the stage. He said, “For everyone’s safety, we have summoned all the students that are out training! After discussion, the school has decided to cancel the students’ recent outing training activities. All students are not allowed to enter and leave the independent space freely without permission!”


    “From today onwards, all students must cultivate diligently. I hope that when danger arrives, everyone will be invincible, defeat the enemy, and protect the Holy Spirit Continent!”


    This emergency meeting cast fear in the hearts of every student.


    After the meeting, Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao went to the principal’s office.


    The principal was sitting behind his desk when he saw Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao walk in together.


    He stared at Yu Huang’s face a few more times, then narrowed his eyes and said, “It seems that you were the one who benefited the most from this trip to the Cong Lang Mystic Realm. Congrattions on bing a Master.”


    It seemed that Yin Rong and the others had already told the Dean about what had happened in the Cong Lang Mystic Realm.


    “Dean, I have something that I want to give to the academy for free.” With that, Yu Huang took out the Prime Emperor Beast Heart from her interspatial ring.


    As the Prime Emperor Beast Heart appeared, the spiritual strength of the entire Divine Realm Academy became much richer.


    The dean immediately sensed the fluctuation of this energy. His narrowed eyes opened again. Staring at that beast heart, the dean’s golden eyes were filled with disbelief.


    “This is… a Prime Master’s beast heart?


    Yu Huang shook her head. “No, to be precise, this should be a Prime Emperor’s beast heart.” After a pause, Yu Huang added in detail, “The Prime Emperor Cong Lang’s beast heart.”


    The dean was shocked.


    “Yu Huang, you stole Prime Emperor Cong Lang’s beast heart?”


    The way he asked this was exactly the same as Lin Jiansheng did. Yu Huang was caught betweenughter and tears.


    Sheng Xiao exined, “She didn’t steal it. It’s a gift from Prime Emperor Cong Lang to Yu Huang. That mysterious ce no longer exists.”


    “It doesn’t exist anymore?” The dean stared at the beast heart in Yu Huang’s hand and sighed. “The Spirit Gathering Tree in the Cong Lang Mystic Realm was formed from Prime Emperor Cong Lang’s beast heart. Since the beast heart was brought out by Yu Huang, the mystic realm naturally disappeared as well…”


    The dean was puzzled. He asked Sheng Xiao, “What happened to you in the mystic realm?” It seemed that Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao had experienced something but did not tell Yin Rong about it.


    Sheng Xiao told him about Li Nu and Prime Emperor Cong Lang.


    After the dean heard this, he said thoughtfully, “So, that divine demon called Li Nu activated the divine demon’s fury and her soul stayed in the Cong Lang Mystic Realm to kill people?”


    “Yes.”


    “No wonder every time they go to the Cong Lang Mystic Realm, a number of beast tamers mysteriously disappear. So they were made into dolls.” The dean shook his head. He said, “They deserve this.”


    “But…”


    The dean made a soundproof wall outside the office. Then, he asked Yu Huang and Sheng Xiao, “Are you sure that Saint Xuan Ye is the person who instigated Li Nu to activate the divine demon’s fury?”


    Yu Huang nodded. “Absolutely.”


    “How could that be?” The dean leaned back in his chair and yed with two walnuts.


    He thought for a moment and said uncertainly, “Saint Xuan Ye ispassionate to the world. Perhaps he couldn’t bear to see the divine demon being bullied, so he instigated the divine demon to do such a thing.”


    The dean said that Saint Xuan Ye waspassionate to the world.


    Her mentor had once said that Saint Xuan Ye was apassionate person. He was the most respected Purifying Spirit Master.


    Yu Huang felt that this was all hype.


    Yu Huang, who did not have a fan filter for Xuan Ye, did not believe that Xuan Ye was really as upright as his image was.
