"Hehehe—"

Shrek Academy.

Early in the morning, urged on by the rooster's crowing, the sun lazily stretched its arms and smiled as it cast out its first ray of light. That golden line warmly shone into the room, bathing the entire village in gold. It was a dazzling color that brought with it the invigorating spirit of morning.

Inside the Shrek Academy girls' dormitory, Zhu Zhuqing had unusually slept in. However, the smile curling at the corners of her lips showed that she was in quite a good mood.

Unlike Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, the only other girl in the dormitory, had not slept all night.

Her fair, lovely little face looked somewhat haggard, her eyes were red, and she seemed to be in low spirits.

Just like in the original story, she had argued with Flender yesterday because she had been slacking off. The outcome was obvious: she had been reprimanded, severely reprimanded. Not a single person had been willing to help her, and some had even spoken coldly to her.

For instance: Dai Mubai, Dai Mubai, and still Dai Mubai.

Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's serene sleeping face, even the proud Ning Rongrong could not help sighing. "She really is a beauty in the making."

Especially those two sinful ostrich eggs—they made her feel nothing but malice.

Nudging Zhu Zhuqing's arm, Ning Rongrong called out, "Zhu Qing, Zhu Qing. Wake up! Wake up, we're going to be late for class." Yesterday, Zhu Zhuqing had been the only one who had not kicked her while she was down, so Ning Rongrong had a fairly good impression of her. As for Oscar, sorry, but Miss Ning still considered him a little lackey!

In her dream, Zhu Zhuqing and Zu Zong were embracing. He lifted her flushed little face, his lips landing on her forehead, eyes, and the tip of her nose. Finally, unable to resist temptation any longer, he kissed the soft lips he had longed for day and night.

Their thin lips gradually drew closer, their lashes nearly touching.

Suddenly, space shattered.

The dream ended. Zhu Zhuqing woke up, roused by Ning Rongrong.

"What is it, Rong Rong?" Rubbing her bleary eyes, Zhu Zhuqing saw Ning Rongrong, already washed and dressed.

"What do you mean, what is it? Zhu Qing, the sun is already on your butt! If you don't get up, that old man Flender will scold us again." It was fine when Flender was not mentioned, but the moment he was brought up, Ning Rongrong was filled with anger.

Zhu Zhuqing helplessly shook her head. She did not want to get involved in this sort of thing. All she wanted now was to become stronger as quickly as possible, then remain by the side of the man she liked. Nothing more.

A moment later, Zhu Zhuqing had finished washing up.

"Alright! Rong Rong, let's go have breakfast together!"

The moment she turned around, she discovered Ning Rongrong staring at her with a strange look. Judging by the situation, she had been watching her for quite some time.

"What? Is there something on my face?" Zhu Zhuqing asked suspiciously.

Ning Rongrong shook her head, revealing a mischievous smile. She giggled, "Zhu Qing, have you noticed that your face is really red right now? Tell me, did you have a spring dream?"

"Red?" It would have been better if Ning Rongrong had not said anything. Once she did, Zhu Zhuqing's face turned even redder. She remembered now. After parting from Zu Zong yesterday, she had returned to the dormitory and slept soundly. Then that night, she had dreamed of doing OO with Zu Zong. The dream had been so beautiful, so real, as though it had truly happened. At the thought of it, even her neck was dyed pink.

Ning Rongrong's eyes immediately lit up. Something was definitely going on! This beautiful girl with a childlike face, huge breasts, and an icy demeanor had actually become shy. From the looks of it, she really did have a boy she liked.

Dai Mubai? That should be impossible. Zhu Qing had never given him a kind look, and how could that Brothel lecherous tiger possibly be worthy of Zhu Qing? Unless she was blind;

Oscar? Impossible. That kid was still thinking about how to pursue Miss Ning;

Tang San? Probably not either. Too ugly;

As for Ma Hongjun, ahem, please automatically ignore him. That Brothel Phoenix was cut from the same cloth as Dai Mubai.

Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong gossiped, "Zhu Qing, hurry up and confess honestly. Did you get a boyfriend?"

"No, I didn't," Zhu Zhuqing retorted. Yet anyone with eyes could see how weak and unconvincing that denial was.

Ning Rongrong would not let it go. Girls loved gossip, and even Miss Ning of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was no exception. She immediately unleashed her tickling technique. "I'll tickle you! I'll tickle you! Are you going to tell me or not?"

How had Zhu Zhuqing ever experienced such a battle before? She was quickly defeated beyond all defense. "Ahhh, that tickles so much! Stop, stop, I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"

Seeing that her attack had achieved tremendous results, Ning Rongrong nodded in satisfaction. She sat upright, preparing to listen to Zhu Zhuqing's romantic history. However, she was thinking too much. This was merely Zhu Zhuqing's delaying tactic.

Zu Zong had once said—sometimes, running away was not shameful. It was called a strategic retreat.

After confirming their relationship with him last night, Zhu Qing wholeheartedly agreed.

Martial Soul PossessionHell Spirit Cat.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Within a few breaths, Zhu Zhuqing vanished from the room. All that remained was Miss Ning shouting inside, "You value a man over your friends!"

Suotuo City.

Near noon, the three of them—Zu Zong, Xiao Wu, and Ye Lingling—returned to the city covered in dust. They had just come back from training.

At dawn that morning, Zu Zong's internal clock had woken him up, and he had gone to call Ye Lingling. After all, he had promised yesterday to teach her physical techniques, Soul Power control, and so on.

Of course, although he was willing to help this girl with such a bleak fate, he would only call her once. If she could not endure hardship, then Zu Zong would not force her. Xiao Wu was an example.

Who would have thought that Ye Lingling had already been awake early in the morning? She had changed into a black leather combat outfit, and even Xiao Wu had woken up after Ye Lingling called her.

At this point, someone might ask: even Zu Zong could not wake up that old rabbit, so how had Ye Lingling managed it? The reason was simple. Ye Lingling had merely said calmly that she was going to train with Zu Zong.

That old rabbit's sleepy eyes immediately became alert.

Although she liked Ye Lingling very much and regarded her as a good friend.

She also considered her a potential "love rival." Ye Lingling was so pretty. What if a man and woman spent too much time together and developed feelings? Wouldn't that make her a complete fool? At crucial moments, Xiao Wu knew what mattered most. She did not care about any grand righteousness.

Zu Zong rolled his eyes. "Could your grand righteousness possibly be eating, drinking, and having fun?"

If Zhu Zhuqing had been here, she definitely would have said: Rabbit, you're still too green. This girl already stole your home. Do you know that?

After training for the entire morning, the three finally returned to Suotuo City. That was only because they had to participate in the Soul Fighting Tournament tonight. Otherwise, Zu Zong would have shown them what true "devil-style training" was.

"Lingling, how do you feel?" Zu Zong asked with some concern. After all, she was a support-type Soul Master, and physical fitness was ultimately her weak point. If not for the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul right here, Zu Zong probably would not have been able to teach her without holding back.

Ye Lingling nodded. The usual coldness was gone from her face, replaced by a trace of serenity. "Mm! It was difficult at first, but I think I'll be able to adapt after persisting for a while."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu became unhappy. "This blockhead only cares about Lingling and doesn't care about me at all. This is truly outrageous!"

"Ah, I'm exhausted! Xiao Zong, so your daily training is this hard! My head is spinning, and my waist and back ache so badly."

As she spoke, Xiao Wu could not help staring straight at Zu Zong again, her little face flushed crimson.

Why say "again"? Because ever since training began, this was not the first time she had looked at him like that. She wanted Zu Zong to carry her on his back as usual.

Zu Zong was exceedingly serious when it came to training. In this world where strength was revered, he had never believed that having a system meant he could rest easy. He did not regard Tang San as the protagonist, nor did he regard himself as one. Douluo Planet would keep turning no matter who was missing. If he became lax because of that, then death would not be far away.

Looking at Xiao Wu's "pitiful" appearance, Zu Zong helplessly said, "Carrot set meal for lunch, deluxe edition."

Xiao Wu's eyes lit up. A carrot set meal, and the deluxe edition at that. Her head was no longer spinning, her waist no longer ached, and her back no longer hurt! She instantly returned to her energetic self.

Thinking this, Xiao Wu habitually pounced over, turning into a koala hanging from Zu Zong's neck as she cheered, "Yay!"

Zu Zong's mouth twitched. "As expected of a glutton."

Just then, a crisp female voice rang out beside Zu Zong's ear. "Excuse me, can you take me along too?"

Cold sweat dripped down Zu Zong's forehead. Fuck! A massive car crash scene.
