Mediocrities Who Dare Not Cause Trouble? Just Listen and Move On

There were eight of them in total.

Leading them was a middle-aged man who looked to be in his forties. He was fairly handsome, with meticulously groomed glossy hair. His moon-white Soul Master robe was rather luxurious, embroidered with silver-thread patterns that shimmered as he moved.

Behind the middle-aged man were seven others—six men and one woman—who all appeared to be around twenty years old. They wore the same moon-white Soul Master robes.

As they arrived, Xu Yichen returned to his seat and watched with interest. The fight would be starting soon.

"That girl's pretty cute, Boss Dai. These people should be from Canghui Academy, right?"

Ma Hongjun's tiny eyes were fixed on the only girl among the eight. He had not looked at Zhu Zhuqing and the others like that before; after all, Tang San's miserable state from yesterday was still fresh in his mind.

Besides, Dai Mubai had said that the older woman beside them was a Titled Douluo. No matter how gutsy he was, he would not dare ogle someone in front of a Titled Douluo.

Dai Mubai curled his lip. "They're just some insignificant Canghui Academy."

Neither Dai Mubai nor Ma Hongjun deliberately lowered their voices. Soul Masters naturally had sharper hearing than ordinary people, so even in the noisy restaurant, the eight from Canghui Academy heard them.

Ye Zhiqiu frowned slightly and looked over. When he saw that they were merely a bunch of brats, his expression turned extremely ugly.

"There's a show coming," Oscar said with a smile from beside Tang San.

"What show?"

Although Xiao Wu was ignoring him now and he felt somewhat upset, he was still confused.

"Dean Flender once said that a Soul Master who doesn't dare cause trouble isn't a good Soul Master. As the saying goes, those who dare not cause trouble are mediocrities. Besides, provoking people from a Soul Master Academy is the safest thing to do. At most, it'll just end in a fight."

"Did the dean really say that?"

Ning Rongrong listened closely. With a show to watch, how could she possibly not watch? That would not suit the Little Demoness's identity.

"You should just listen to words like that. Anyone who actually does it is an idiot. A Soul Master's life is the most important thing. No matter what level you are or how powerful you are, only by staying alive will you have a future. If you die, you'll have nothing."

"Besides, picking a fight with a Soul Master stronger than yourself for no reason—isn't that just brain-dead? As the saying goes, if people don't offend me, I won't offend them. But if someone wants to deal with you first, you must strike first."

"Of course, if you have a Titled Douluo behind you, you can do whatever you want. But you have to make sure that Titled Douluo is by your side. Otherwise, if you get killed, there won't even be anyone to avenge you."

Xu Yichen spoke calmly, but everyone nearby heard him.

Oscar's mouth twitched, while Dai Mubai and the others wore extremely ugly expressions.

Those were words their dean had said, yet they had been dismissed as worthless. But they did not dare go over there, since that Titled Douluo was still sitting there.

"Oh, right."

After giving it some thought, Ning Rongrong realized that she dared act recklessly in the sect only because her father was the sect master, and because Sword Grandpa and Bone Grandpa both doted on her the most.

Without those things, she might have been beaten to death already.

At that thought, Ning Rongrong's delicate body shuddered. It was too frightening. It seemed her little temper really needed changing, or she might not even know how she died in the future.

After pondering for a while, Zhu Zhuqing also felt that this was quite correct. In this world, only the strong had reason on their side. As long as you were a Titled Douluo, whatever you said made sense. Therefore, she needed powerful strength in order to gain true freedom.

A young man from Canghui Academy rose from his seat and walked toward Tang San's group.

Dai Mubai looked disdainful. At that moment, a waiter happened to be bringing the dishes for their table over.

The young man quickened his pace and deliberately bumped into the waiter. The dish was about to be dumped directly onto Dai Mubai's head.

Bang!

Dai Mubai was completely stunned. Wiping the food off his head, fury surged within him. "You're courting death!"

Dai Mubai grabbed the young man by the clothes.

Xu Yichen was taken aback. Tang San had actually not made a move this time. It seemed Zhuqing had injured his meridians yesterday, so he probably would not be able to use martial arts for the next few days. Who would have thought Zhuqing's soul skill could be used like this?

"Ah, I'm really sorry."

"Hmph!" Dai Mubai snorted coldly and slapped out with his palm.

The young man's face changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised both hands. But Dai Mubai was faster. His strike landed solidly on the young man, sending him flying with a cry. He crashed through two tables in succession.

Ye Zhiqiu grabbed the young man by the shoulder and caught him. The young man's face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a wail. It was clear just how powerful Dai Mubai's palm strike had been.

Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong immediately moved behind Xu Yichen as well, afraid that they would be caught up in the conflict.

"See that? That's the consequence of causing trouble. They're about to fight. If you can win, that's fine, but if you can't, you're the one who gets hurt."

"Got it, got it. We definitely won't cause trouble in the future."

Ning Rongrong nodded rapidly like a pecking chick.

"You don't need to go that far. If Ling Xi is beside you and they act like this or insult you, you can go up and slap them. They can't beat Ling Xi anyway."

Xu Yichen pinched Ning Rongrong's exquisite cheek. It was smooth and tender, and felt wonderful. This sensation was probably on the same level as Zhu Zhuqing's great evil, though Xu Yichen had not compared them yet.

If I get the chance, I can give it a try.

Seeing their classmate in such a miserable state, how could the Canghui Academy students endure it? They all stood up, wanting to rush over, but Ye Zhiqiu stopped them.

Xu Yichen felt that this was indeed quite suitable as a lesson this time—a perfect example of causing trouble.

With a grim expression, Ye Zhiqiu said, "Which academy are you little brats from?"

"You want to know? You're not worthy!"

"What an arrogant bunch of brats. Teach them a proper lesson!"

Xu Yichen ate as he watched. Although Canghui Academy's people were not good people, Shrek Academy had indeed started this incident. Ma Hongjun could not control his mouth, Dai Mubai not only failed to stop him but indulged him, and Flender could even say such things. Anyone who did not know better would think he was a Titled Douluo. They had all been taught badly.

"A fight? I like that!"

Xiao Wu sprang to her feet.

Tang San frowned slightly, but still followed her.

"They're really going to fight!"

Ning Rongrong was somewhat excited. She had not expected to get to watch a group brawl. It was so thrilling.

"What are you so excited about? Since you like fighting so much, I'll have you fight in the Great Soul Arena every day from now on."

"Hehe, no, no."

Ning Rongrong shrank her neck. She actually only liked watching the show. As for fighting, she would wait until she had learned all those Secret Techniques.

Ling Xi watched with interest as well, wondering how things would develop from here.
