Flender didn't rush to answer Zhao Wuji's question. Instead, he took out a few Silver Soul Coin and placed them in front of the stall owner as compensation for the table that was damaged during the fight, as well as the bowl of noodles that Bai Wanwan had just eaten.

Until Bai Wanwan's figure disappeared from sight.

Flender then waved to Zhao Wuji, Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai, and the others, leading them towards the Shrek Academy.

"Old Zhao, you should pay more attention to Message outside."

"Luckily, she was the one who had the upper hand during the fight just now; otherwise, it would probably have been a Titled Douluo stepped forward later."

As Flender spoke, his tone involuntarily became somewhat solemn.

"I suspect her identity might be somewhat unusual."

"That's why I wanted to bring Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai back to the academy as soon as possible, but things didn't go as planned..."

Zhao Wuji spoke, he glanced back.

Behind them, Ma Hongjun supported Dai Mubai, keeping his head down the whole time to minimize his presence and showing no intention of speaking.

"Cang Lan and Chi Yang, Two Princely Titles recently conferred titles upon the Heaven Dou Empire, with their Fief Suotuo City."

"According to the Message circulating outside, they are accompanied by two Titled Douluo, and since the King Canglan is in his own Fief, it is unlikely that he would be unattended."

"If you had injured her just now, things would have been really troublesome."

"If a student causes trouble for no reason and Teacher bullies a younger student, do you think the person behind her, or the person secretly protecting her, will let it go?"

Flender rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache.

"So what do we do now?"

Zhao Wuji scratched his head. "When she left, she seemed to say that things weren't over yet."

"I don't know. Let's take it one step at a time. If it doesn't work out, I'll have to swallow my pride and use my connections to see if I can turn this big problem into a small one, and a small one into nothing."

Flender sighed, his eyes filled with helplessness.

The only consolation is that things didn't escalate to the worst possible outcome.

He does have some connections, but whether they're useful or not, he's not sure.

When he was young, he ventured into the Spirit Master World and together with Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong, they earned the reputation of a Golden Iron Triangle.

Of the Golden Iron Triangle, only Flender had no background. Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong were both from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Although he didn't know where Yu Xiaogang was now, he knew where Liu Erlong was.

The connections that Flender was referring to were none other than Liu Erlong.

If things really get to the point where they can't be handled, then Flender will have no choice but to swallow his pride and go to Liu Erlong to see if Liu Erlong can get the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan behind her to help.

The figures of the group gradually disappeared into the distance.

At the very top of a building, Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear, transformed into human form, silently watched Flender, Zhao Wuji, and the others as they left. Its eyes gradually narrowed, a dangerous glint appearing within them.

He witnessed the whole thing.

The Master sent him out primarily to secretly protect Bai Wanwan's safety.

Although Bai Wanwan didn't seem to have suffered any losses in what just happened, and even gained a slight advantage, it might be difficult to explain herself when they returned to the Star Dou Great Forest if she just watched without doing anything.

"Giving them a little lesson shouldn't be too much to ask, right?"

After thinking for a moment, Xiong Jun vanished from his spot as if he had never existed.

Suotuo City, south of the city.

On a somewhat secluded path.

Flender, Zhao Wuji, Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai, and others were heading towards the Shrek Academy.

"Mu Bai, you know the situation at the academy. I can get a Healing Spirit Master come and heal your injuries, but you'll have to bear the cost of hiring one yourself."

Flender coughed lightly, his expression very serious.

"Didn't ask..."

Just as Dai Mubai was about to agree, he felt something fly out from the side, followed by a muffled groan of pain.

"Old Zhao?"

What's wrong with you?

Flender stared in astonishment at Zhao Wuji lying on the ground ahead.

He only saw a fleeting afterimage; before he could react, Zhao Wuji's figure had already flown away.

Bang~

Just as Flender was stunned, Flender felt something pat his body, and then his body felt light as he flew straight away.

Another bang.

Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai were also sent flying, crashing heavily to the ground.

Having done all this, Xiong Jun, who had been hiding in the shadows, quietly returned to Suotuo City.

Let me simply teach you a lesson.

One claw is given to each person, without bias.

"Hiss~"

"Holy crap, who the hell attacked us?"

Zhao Wuji was the first to get up from the ground, his eyes warily scanning his surroundings.

"Hiss~"

"He was sent flying as soon as he left Suotuo City. Old Zhao, who else could it be?"

"Fortunately, the person in the shadows didn't intend to kill us; otherwise, given their silent and stealthy methods, we would have been dead long ago."

Flender stood up from the ground, felt his body was about to fall apart, and immediately helped Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai up.

Fortunately, apart from Dai Mubai, everyone else only suffered minor injuries.

"That wicked woman."

"I'll remember this."

Ma Hongjun reached out and covered his shoulder, revealing a somewhat resentful expression.

But soon a slap landed on his head.

Shut up.

"You're the ones who caused this mess."

"If the person hiding in the shadows hasn't left, and someone hears you saying this, it won't just be a matter of being slapped away."

As Flender spoke, he glanced around warily.

After waiting a while and confirming that everything was alright, Flender led them toward the Shrek Academy.

On the other side.

The City Lord Manor of Suotuo City.

Bai Wanwan sat in the city lord's seat, propping her head up with her hand, listening quietly to the Moxiong's story.

"The efficiency is a bit low."

"Two or three days have passed, and they still haven't finished such a small matter."

Bai Wanwan gently tapped the armrest of the chair with her fingertips, her azure eyes looking at the Moxiong.

Noticing Bai Wanwan's gaze, the Moxiong turned his attention to the city lord standing on the other side.

"Your Highness, we are almost finished with this matter."

"We'll be able to finish in three days at most, no, just two."

"Your Highness, you are new to this place. Your subordinates have prepared a banquet to welcome you and help you settle Your Highness. Would Your Highness like to...?"

The city lord took a step forward, keeping his head down the entire time.

"No need for a banquet."

"I'm a little tired. I just need a clean room."

Bai Wanwan waved her hand gently.
