"Can we talk this out, classmate? I won't pursue your responsibility for ambushing me without warning. Deal?"
Chen Ping pursed his lips. If he kept stubbornly mouthing off, he was afraid he'd have to collect compensation from a hospital bed.
As he spoke, Chen Ping's other hand had already reached toward his communicator.
Although calling Xuan Zi over to deal with two Soul Grandmasters would be humiliating beyond belief,
Chen Ping felt that during the start of school, avoiding a trip to the Medical Office was probably more important than saving face.
Wu Feng might not have been the sharpest tool in the shed, but she immediately saw through Chen Ping's intention to call for reinforcements.
Wu Feng suddenly stepped forward. The First Soul Ring beneath her feet lit up, activating the Soul Skill Dragon's Fire.
A layer of thick red flames erupted from her body, surrounding her within a radius of roughly one foot.
Every strike she made now carried the scorching heat of Dragon's Fire, forcing Chen Ping to retreat repeatedly. He had no chance to reach for the Communication Soul Guidance Device.
Even so, Chen Ping's crisis was far from over.
At the same time, Ning Tian, who stood in the distance, extended her right hand and called out, "Seven Treasures Out, There is Glazed Tile."
Her body gracefully spun once in place, and brilliant Seven-Colored Light immediately burst from within her.
At the point where the Seven-Colored Light gathered, a Seven-Colored Treasure Pagoda more than a foot tall had already appeared in Ning Tian's right palm.
The pagoda shimmered with dazzling radiance from top to bottom, as though countless gems had been set into it.
Chen Ping had not even heard Ning Tian finish speaking. Just by looking at the extraordinarily ornate little pagoda, he already recognized who these two were.
Weren't these the two little girls from the Freshman Class Nine and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School in the Original Work?
For Chen Ping at this moment, the only thing worth taking comfort in was the fact that a low-level Support System Soul Master from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect assisting another low-level Soul Master posed far less of a threat to him than two low-level Battle Soul Masters attacking together.
At least, with only one Soul Ring, Chen Ping could not imagine what he could possibly rely on to defeat two Battle Soul Masters.
"Seven Treasures are renowned. One is Speed."
Just as Ning Tian's two Century Soul Rings flew up from beneath her feet and settled around her Martial Soul, and the instant Ning Tian began chanting her Soul Incantation, Chen Ping suddenly widened his eyes.
"Hey, Teacher Li is over here!"
Chen Ping shouted so loudly that even Wu Feng froze for a moment before instinctively turning her head.
Ning Tian nearly dropped the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. The Buffing Light she fired also veered slightly and shot toward the sky, apparently missing Wu Feng entirely.
Seizing the opportunity, Chen Ping abruptly planted the Touch Dragon Staff upright into the ground. He poured Soul Power into it, stretching it to more than three meters long, and stood atop the staff at a height of over three meters.
Then, like a pole-vaulter, he flew over Wu Feng's head and smoothly caught the Speed Boost that Ning Tian had sent off course.
When Chen Ping stepped over Wu Feng's head, received the Buffing Light, and landed, Wu Feng's gaze was also sweeping behind her toward the nonexistent Teacher Li Chen Ping had shouted about.
Seeing the Buffing Light radiating from Chen Ping and watching his descent from the sky was enough to make Wu Feng's eyes widen. The embarrassment and fury on her face nearly spilled over.
At the beginning, Wu Feng had attacked Chen Ping almost reflexively because she was too nervous.
But after Chen Ping stepped over her head, the matter became purely a personal grudge.
"Bastard! I'm only one hundred and sixty centimeters tall! I'm going to stop growing!"
Wu Feng's eyes seemed ready to spit fire.
But a closer look would reveal that her eye sockets also seemed slightly reddened.
Chen Ping was no longer as afraid of Wu Feng's speed. Ning Tian's Speed Boost had directly increased his original speed by twenty percent.
Dodging Wu Feng's attacks had now become much easier for him.
"Seven Treasures are renowned. One is Speed!"
Seeing that things were going badly, Ning Tian once again controlled the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to fire a Buffing Light, hoping to erase the speed difference between the two.
But Ning Tian had forgotten one thing: Chen Ping was faster than Wu Feng now!
"Catch!"
Just as Wu Feng believed she could receive the Speed Boost sent by her Young Master, turn the tables, suppress Chen Ping again, and even beat him senseless,
Chen Ping's shameless little "Catch!" made her feel as though she had plummeted into an icy abyss.
In the next moment, Chen Ping performed another Upright Staff pole vault. Without saying a word, he jumped over her head again and absorbed the Speed Boost Ning Tian had fired over, giving Wu Feng no chance to turn the tables.
After Chen Ping had stepped over her head twice in a row, Wu Feng truly could not take it anymore. She had already begun contemplating whether she would remain a shorty for the rest of her life.
"You're courting death! Second Soul Skill, Dragon's Wrath!"
Wu Feng shouted furiously as she glared at Chen Ping and lit up her Second Soul Ring.
The Dragon's Fire surging over her body suddenly turned Dark Red, while her original half-body scales abruptly grew thicker and heavier.
The red light in her eyes blazed even brighter, and her left hand transformed completely into the shape of a Dragon Claw.
But Dragon's Wrath only greatly enhanced her offensive and defensive attributes. It did not increase her speed.
What effect could blindly activating this skill have when she could not even touch Chen Ping?
Chen Ping was no longer in a hurry to call for reinforcements. Before the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's Buffing Light ended, he was confident Wu Feng would not be able to touch him.
"Have you had enough?"
Chen Ping suddenly jabbed the Touch Dragon Staff into Wu Feng's waist. Her entire body bent at the waist, and she nearly lost her breath.
"You were the ones who ambushed me without warning the moment you came up. And you still aren't going to stop?"
Chen Ping looked at Wu Feng warily.
That girl's defense was truly terrifying after activating Dragon's Wrath.
His staff had stabbed her, yet not even a red mark had appeared on the surface of her skin.
"You're talking nonsense. You followed us all the way here."
"We're heading toward the Girls' Dormitory. The classrooms ahead are already locked. What else could you possibly be doing here?"
Wu Feng clutched her waist, breathing rapidly, but she still glared resentfully at Chen Ping.
"Who told you that the building ahead was the damn Girls' Dormitory? Shrek doesn't even have a Girls' Dormitory. The students live in mixed-gender dorms."
Chen Ping had begun speaking righteously, but the more he said, the stranger things felt.
Girls' Dormitory?
Had he heard those four words somewhere just now?
"You're talking nonsense. How could Shrek's dormitories possibly be mixed-gender? Are the leaders of Shrek Academy all useless freeloaders?"
Ning Tian stepped forward as well, standing beside Wu Feng as she questioned Chen Ping's claim.
"I'm talking nonsense? Fine, fine."
Chen Ping had originally wanted to think through where this misunderstanding had come from, but Ning Tian's words irritated him.
"Fine. You two had better remember what you're saying right now. I'll make things perfectly clear."
"There's an old white-bearded man lying right outside the entrance to the Girls' Dormitory you mentioned. If you're capable, the two of you can go beat that old man up too."
"That old man is lying right outside the Girls' Dormitory. Even an idiot could guess he's an Old Pervert. How about you two beat him up?"
