So this is the Shrek Academy my teacher sent me to?
Zhao Wuji rose from his rocking chair and looked toward Zhu Zhuqing and Tang San, saying with some surprise, "I didn't expect two people to reach the fourth trial this year. That's quite rare."
"My name is Zhao Wuji. I'm the vice dean of Shrek Academy, and a seventy-six-year-old Battle Soul Sage."
"Pass my trial, and you can join Shrek Academy as students."
Tang San's heart jolted.
They want us to fight a Soul Sage?
It seems I'll have to use hidden weapons to defeat him. Tang San thought to himself.
Zhao Wuji had no idea what Tang San was thinking.
Otherwise, he would have given Tang San two hard slaps to teach him a lesson.
He swept his eyes over the two of them and said indifferently, "The fact that you came directly to the fourth trial means your Soul Power isn't low. I'll give you the time it takes an incense stick to burn to discuss your tactics."
"Ten moves! As long as the two of you can last ten moves, you'll have passed the trial."
Hearing this, Tang San took the initiative to walk over to Zhu Zhuqing and was just about to speak.
Zhu Zhuqing turned away coldly, ignoring Tang San's approach.
Facing Zhu Zhuqing's coldness, Tang San furrowed his brows tightly.
Although he had a good temper, he wasn't someone who would blindly accommodate others.
You have a temper, and so do I! Tang San thought indignantly, likewise deciding not to bother with Zhu Zhuqing anymore.
So what if you're pretty?
So what if you have a good figure?
You're only at rank twenty-seven Soul Power. What are you putting on airs for?
Seeing this, Zhao Wuji had no intention of mediating between them.
He had already made his preparations.
He would simply go easy on them and let them both join the academy.
After so many years, it was hard enough to find two qualified students.
He couldn't let them get away.
After ten moves.
Tang San was hammered into a dormitory, and the tremendous impact instantly reduced the building to rubble.
Zhu Zhuqing crouched halfway up a treetop, the hem of her clothes slightly dirty.
"All right, you've passed the trial."
Zhao Wuji's expression was gloomy, and he looked to be in a foul mood.
Countless throwing knives, needles, and darts were scattered around him.
Under the sunlight, they gleamed with an eerie luster. They had clearly been coated with poison.
Hearing Zhao Wuji's words, Zhu Zhuqing leaped down from the treetop.
Zhao Wuji glanced at Tang San in the ruins, then at Zhu Zhuqing, and said indifferently, "From today onward, the two of you are students of Shrek Academy."
"Just in time, Oscar. Come introduce our academy to this junior, and introduce yourselves to each other while you're at it."
Oscar was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly left Dai Mubai's side to stand before Zhu Zhuqing.
Seeing this, Dai Mubai roared, "Oscar, don't touch her! She's mine!"
"Seriously..." The corner of Oscar's mouth twitched slightly, leaving him speechless.
This guy has already become a cripple.
And he's still thinking about women.
You don't even have a man's most important symbol anymore.
What do you need a woman for? To keep you company at mealtimes?
Out of consideration for Dai Mubai's strength, Oscar sighed softly and said, "Junior, my name is Oscar. That fat guy is Ma Hongjun, and the last one is Dai Mubai."
Oscar really wanted to say, "Dai Mubai isn't a man anymore," but he was afraid Dai Mubai would kill him later.
After thinking it over, he decided against it.
Zhu Zhuqing swept her cold eyes over the three of them.
When she saw Ma Hongjun, she subconsciously furrowed her brows in thought.
Remembering what had happened that day, she narrowed her beautiful eyes.
"How did they get injured?" Zhu Zhuqing asked coldly.
Oscar found her question comforting, yet it also made his heart tremble.
"Ahem..."
"Even the best horse can stumble, and people can trip while walking..."
"I fell while walking!" Dai Mubai hurriedly shouted. He seemed afraid that if he spoke even a moment later, Zhu Zhuqing would misunderstand.
"Boss Dai, didn't you say that you were beaten by the beauty named Xiao Wu, the one with the sexy, long legs?" Ma Hongjun asked in confusion.
The corner of Dai Mubai's mouth twitched slightly.
He glared viciously at Ma Hongjun and was just about to explain himself to Zhu Zhuqing.
Just then.
From within the ruins.
Tang San struggled out.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, he slowly walked up to Ma Hongjun.
"What did you just say? Xiao Wu?"
"Has Xiao Wu been to Shrek Academy?"
"Where is she now?"
"Why should I tell you?" Ma Hongjun sneered.
The moment Xiao Wu was mentioned, he became furious.
If not for Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, he wouldn't have been burned.
The red hair covering his body wouldn't have been burned to ashes either.
"You! Cough, cough..." Tang San was both furious and anxious.
"Huh? That's not right!" Ma Hongjun looked coldly at Tang San and demanded, "You know them, don't you?"
"Them?" Tang San sensed that something was wrong and inexplicably began to feel guilty.
"I mean a red-haired guy, a girl in a pink dress, and a girl in a blue dress." Ma Hongjun continued pressing him.
Dai Mubai's attention was drawn over as well.
Sensing that something was off, he began looking at Tang San with hostility.
After all, wasn't Xiao Wu the one who had crippled him?
Zhao Wuji's gaze also shifted over.
By now, he knew that the people who had crippled Dai Mubai, burned Ma Hongjun, and caused a disturbance at Shrek Academy were all from the same group.
Moreover, he had just been tormented by Tang San's despicable methods.
As a result, he also looked at Tang San with some hostility.
"No... No mistake! They originally planned to come to Shrek Academy with me to register. However, I'm only close to Xiao Wu. I'm not familiar with Fei." Tang San was stared at by three hostile gazes, and his heart immediately began pounding.
"So his name is Fei..." Ma Hongjun ground his teeth. But when he thought of Fei's strength, his anger deflated.
When Dai Mubai heard that Tang San was close to Xiao Wu, his gaze filled with hostility and murderous intent.
No man was willing to become a "useless person."
What was more, he had once been vigorous and virile.
He had even been capable of battling a pair of twin sisters until dawn!
How could he accept becoming a cripple?
Noticing Dai Mubai's killing intent, Tang San narrowed his eyes and met Dai Mubai's gaze.
Killing intent!
This man wants to kill me. He has already earned the right to die!
Watching the two sides poised for conflict, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly felt that she might have come to the wrong place.
