The next morning, at dawn.

Because of what had happened at Shrek Academy yesterday, registration for Shrek's new students had been delayed by a day.

The atmosphere before Shrek Academy's gates was unusually strange. New and old students gathered together, their gazes uniformly fixed on the two young girls standing before Du Wilun. Their eyes were filled with confusion, surprise, and even a faint trace of awe.

The news that Dean Yan Shaozhe had been "taught a lesson" by these two girls' family members yesterday had already spread like wildfire throughout Shrek City and the academy.

Although no one knew the exact details, the explosive news of "the dean getting beaten up" alone was enough to make everyone view the two girls in a new light. Yet what was even more unexpected was that they had actually come to the academy openly to register today, as if nothing had happened yesterday.

"Are they... here to register?" an older Shrek student asked in a low voice, his tone filled with disbelief.

"Looks like it," another older student beside him replied with a frown. "But didn't they just beat up the dean yesterday? How do they still dare to come today?"

"Who knows? Maybe they have powerful backing, to the point that even the academy doesn't dare offend them easily," another student guessed.

Though the crowd kept their voices low, their discussion still reached Du Wilun's ears. Standing before the two girls with an awkward and helpless expression, he had never encountered such a thorny situation in all his time as Shrek Academy's outer courtyard director of instruction.

Didn't we already agree yesterday?

You could have just entered the academy. Why did you come to the registration area?

"Oh, isn't this Little Du? Is Dean Yan doing well? He hasn't died, has he? If he has, can Dugu Luo and I attend his funeral feast?"

Du Wilun:

Hearing Moyan's utterly inhuman words, he had no idea how to answer. Why was this girl's mouth so... special?

Naturally, Dugu Luo understood what Lady Moyan wanted to do again. Stir up trouble, of course.

Although Moyan was rather lazy, she quite enjoyed finding amusement. Otherwise, after sleeping, she would have nowhere to vent all that excess energy, which would be quite troublesome.

Seeing that Du Wilun did not answer, Moyan naturally did not give up so quickly and continued asking, "Director Du, Dean Yan hasn't really died, has he?"

"If he really died, then this Super Douluo must have been far too watered down!"

"..." Du Wilun could not take it anymore and hurriedly cut off Moyan before she could continue. "Miss Moyan, both you and Miss Dugu Luo beside you have already been admitted in advance. Please don't make things difficult for me, the director."

"I'm making things difficult for you?" Moyan immediately became displeased. "Wasn't it you who made an unreasonable fuss yesterday and demanded my dog's name? I offered to give it to you, but you weren't willing. Your brain is full of bubbles."

Du Wilun:

Damn it. He knew this girl was insulting him, yet he couldn't get angry.

Du Wilun's silence immediately bored Moyan. It seemed that old Mu En had figured out some of her personality.

There was no point wasting more words on him.

Dugu Luo was very good at reading the room and immediately saw what was happening. She began her performance, reaching out to pull Moyan back. "Lady Moyan, don't make unreasonable trouble. Our family said the matter was over, so let it be over. Don't keep clinging to it."

After speaking to Moyan, Dugu Luo turned to Du Wilun and revealed an obviously fake smile. "Director Du, we're truly sorry. My Lady Moyan holds grudges rather easily. Usually, she's quite lazy and laid-back. Unless certain people have bubbles in their brains, she wouldn't act as unusually as she has today."

Moyan:

It clearly sounded like an apology, so why did it also sound like she was insulting him?

Though that was what he thought inwardly, Du Wilun still said with a smile, "Hahaha, that would naturally be wonderful! How about having some outstanding senior students show you around the academy and the dormitories where you'll be staying?"

At this moment, he desperately wanted to send these two girls, who could only be described as "ancestor-tier," away as quickly as possible.

Because he knew perfectly well that if they were allowed to remain here any longer, it would not take long before the two girls used the same trick again—one playing the good cop, the other the bad cop.

After going back and forth like that, he would surely be angered half to death!

If that truly happened, an astonishing piece of gossip would likely spread across the entire Douluo Continent—the mighty Shrek Academy's Soul Douluo powerhouse being angered to death by two mere Soul Elder-level girls! It would undoubtedly become the most hilarious and absurd joke on the Douluo Continent.

Just then, Moyan, the girl who looked somewhat languid yet was still beautiful, suddenly said, "Little Du, to be honest, I have no interest in men. So, could you please arrange only some soft, sweet senior sisters to serve as our guides?"

The moment those words came out, all the male senior students who had been eagerly looking forward to it instantly wilted like eggplants struck by frost.

Who could have expected that this seemingly free-spirited and charming girl would openly declare that she had no interest in men at all?

Crack.

The sounds of hearts breaking rang out continuously.

Du Wilun could not be bothered to think too much about it. Just then, he spotted a black-haired, straight-haired girl returning from Shrek City and immediately called out, "Student Lexuan."

That black-haired girl was none other than Zhang Lexuan, a senior student of Shrek Academy's inner courtyard and the white moonlight in the hearts of countless male inner courtyard students.

Hearing Director Du Wilun call for her, Zhang Lexuan walked over curiously. "What is it, Director Du?"

"Take these two new students around the academy and show them their dormitories," Du Wilun said hurriedly. "If they have any requests, remember to tell me."

Dean Yan had already issued orders yesterday that talents like these had to be properly nurtured and cared for, so that they would treat the academy as their second home. Therefore, no matter how angry he was today, he could not lose his temper.

I must endure it like a ninja turtle!

Hearing this request, Zhang Lexuan immediately understood something. She gave Moyan and Dugu Yan a deep look. When she had risen to cultivate this morning, Mu En had told her about what had happened yesterday.

The two girls before her should be the main characters of yesterday's incident.

"I understand." Zhang Lexuan did not refuse. Mu En had instructed her at the time to find a way to win over these two girls. After all, the force behind them possessed immortal herbs, the kind that could help her and Beibei rapidly increase their Soul Power cultivation.

At first, Zhang Lexuan had not cared much about it. But when she heard that those immortal herbs would be of enormous benefit to Beibei's martial soul and Soul Power, she could not help but be moved.

Moyan had already caught the trace of Zhang Lexuan's unique aura with her extraordinarily sharp senses the moment Zhang Lexuan entered the range of Shrek Academy's gates. That was why she had said those words to Du Wilun. However, she truly did not like men other than her original body getting close to her.
