Douluo: The System Arrived Ten Thousand Years Early, and I Crushed Tang San

Those hidden in the shadows to protect Ning Rongrong would not act unless she was in danger at the very last moment.

Moreover, those people in the shadows were not direct members of the sect. Their loyalty could not compare to that of the Sword Bone Douluo, so whether something unexpected might happen was hard to say.

"What? The sect is the sect, and the academy is the academy! In the sect, no one dared do anything to you because of your status, so of course you found it easy! But this is the academy, and I call the shots here!"

Flender unleashed his full aura and stared sternly at Ning Rongrong without yielding an inch.

"Flender! You're just..."

"Rong Rong, you're all alone now. Do you want to fight Flender? Don't forget that you're merely a support Soul Master with no combat ability. Don't just flap your lips—use your brain. You're quite smart, aren't you?"

Xiao Tian's voice sounded by Ning Rongrong's ear, and she swallowed every word she had been about to say.

Voice transmission?

Xiao Tian was only a Soul Elder, yet he had already learned it?

So impressive!

With Xiao Tian's reminder, she temporarily calmed down. She felt that she had indeed lost her composure.

After calming down, she realized that Flender's words were not entirely unreasonable. This truly was no longer the sect. The sect was too far away from her now and could no longer serve as the confidence she relied on when throwing a tantrum!

Xiao Tian was right too. She was merely a support with no offensive power. She needed to learn to use her brain!

At that moment, Ning Rongrong seemed to mature in an instant.

Arguing was the mark of the incompetent. What she needed was to either do nothing—or, once she acted, deliver a heavy blow to her opponent!

Thus, Ning Rongrong decided to write down today's events in her little notebook and send word to Grandpa Sword in a few days!

Hehe.

Grandpa Sword loved her the most. Once he learned that she had been wronged, he would definitely help her get even.

Besides, this training really was unreasonable!

Otherwise, she would not have lost her temper so badly. She had never done that in the sect!

At most, she had only been a little mischievous...

Phew~~

"Alright, Dean Flender. Everything you said is right. I'll go accept my punishment now!"

Ning Rongrong regained her smile, crossing her hands over her lower abdomen in a picture of elegance.

Flender: ???

Huh?

Something was off. Not just off—twelve kinds of off!

Why had Ning Rongrong's attitude changed so quickly?

Looking at the smile on Ning Rongrong's face, he did not know why, but a chill ran down his back. It was an illusion, right?

Seeing Ning Rongrong's change before and after, Xiao Tian nodded in satisfaction. That was more like it. Running one's mouth could not solve any problems.

He just wondered what method this Little Witch Ning Rongrong would use to make Flender suffer his "punishment."

Afterward, everyone trudged heavily toward the academy gates.

Eight baskets had been placed at the entrance. Each bore a name, and each contained stones of varying weights.

Tang San pondered silently. It seemed his teacher had still taken the condition of support Soul Masters into consideration.

Xiao Tian examined the eight baskets and found that his contained the most stones?

This Master really thought highly of him. Although he was an Assault System Soul Master, his Martial Soul was a sword. Unlike Dai Mubai's Beast Martial Soul, leveling up did not strengthen his physique by much!

Could it be because his level was high and all three of his Soul Rings were purple that this had been arranged?

What a joke!

Still, Xiao Tian did not care. To be honest, he did not even consider this weight worth mentioning. For someone who swung his sword at least ten thousand times every day, this was child's play.

Xiao Tian put on his basket and felt its weight. It was around fifty jin, and they still had to run twenty laps...

"Rong Rong, can you tell how much weight you're carrying?" Xiao Tian asked.

Ning Rongrong's face had fallen by then, no longer wearing the bright smile from before.

"About fifteen jin..."

Oscar came over with a grin. "Don't worry. If you can't keep going later, I'll help carry some of it. Mine is about twenty jin, which is still manageable."

Oscar wanted to show off his capabilities here.

Ning Rongrong merely glanced at him and remained silent before running off directly.

It was only fifteen jin. Who was he looking down on!

Xiao Tian shook his head helplessly and followed after her, with Xiao Wu, Tang San, and the others close behind.

Dai Mubai patted Oscar on the back and raised his brows. "Xiao Ao, Ning Rongrong won't be easy to pursue. Keep at it—I believe in you!"

Encouraged by Dai Mubai, Oscar perked up again.

After running for a while, Ning Rongrong noticed Xiao Tian following behind her. She slowed down slightly and said in a low voice, "Thanks for earlier. If it hadn't been for you, I might have..."

Xiao Tian smiled. "You mean you might have said that Flender was merely a Soul Sage, and that any Titled Douluo from your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could come over and wipe him out?"

Ning Rongrong was somewhat embarrassed, her face flushing slightly. Her image had truly been ruined by how she had acted earlier.

"That's right, but I was just too angry then. I've never suffered such grievances in the sect! It completely ruined my refined young lady image..." Ning Rongrong could not help complaining.

Xiao Wu had initially wanted to run up beside them, but after hearing Xiao Tian mention a Titled Douluo, she quietly stayed behind them and listened.

"Hahaha, true enough. When I first met you, you had a unique air about you. You were not only pretty, but you also looked smart. But do you know what you looked like just now?"

"What?"

Without hesitation, Xiao Tian said, "Like an uncultured, spoiled young lady!"

"You!" Ning Rongrong was left speechless by Xiao Tian's retort.

"What? Was I wrong? Think carefully about how you acted just now. Also, I told you before: no matter what happens, stay rational and calm. Don't let anger cloud your mind!"

Xiao Tian gave Ning Rongrong an indifferent glance.

Phew~~

Only then did Ning Rongrong realize that Xiao Tian's eloquence was truly no less formidable than Flender's!

She knew she had been in the wrong, and that it had indeed ruined her image. But how could habits developed over so many years be changed just because she wanted to?

"Also, I'm curious. How did you usually train in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Did Sect Master Ning and your two grandfathers use running to train you?"

Ning Rongrong nodded, then shook her head. "They did, but I never ran such long distances. Their intention in making me run was to maintain a normal physique, not to improve my ability to protect myself through so-called running, because that is completely useless!

"If it were useful, there would not always be at least one grandfather protecting my father. In front of true powerhouses, this so-called 'running' is nothing more than a joke!"

That was why she had been unable to hold back and explode earlier. Yu Xiaogang's idea of self-protection completely went against the principles she had learned in the sect!

Xiao Tian's Schemes, Fifteen's Agility

Afterward, Ning Rongrong recalled how she had ruined her image earlier. Wondering whether it would affect how Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing saw her, she stiffly turned around and asked tentatively, "Xiao Wu, Zhu Qing, just now I..."

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing exchanged a glance and smiled. "Rong Rong, your reaction just now seemed quite normal to us. Even I almost lost my temper, but my brother held me back in the end."

Xiao Wu suddenly paused, then looked at Xiao Tian and said quietly, "Brother, you're not really going to obediently keep running like this, are you? That doesn't seem like the brother I know."

Xiao Tian laughed. "As expected, Xiao Wu, you know me best. Training still needs to be done, but Master's way of talking and that attitude of indiscriminately shoving it in our faces really is unpleasant."

Seeing the scheming smile on Xiao Tian's face, Xiao Wu knew she had guessed right. She wondered how her brother planned to deal with Yu Xiaogang.

Actually, if Yu Xiaogang had simply said that today's run was the training he had arranged, they would have complained a little in their hearts but would not have said much.

After all, the academy's facilities were what they were. They could only do weighted runs, so there was no need to expose it.

But Yu Xiaogang insisted on spouting all those unreasonable excuses. He was truly asking for it!

Suddenly, a small idea came to Xiao Tian. It was not impossible for them to finish these twenty laps, but he wanted Yu Xiaogang to run alongside them!

Hadn't Yu Xiaogang just preached all those grand principles? Strictly speaking, he should count as an Assault System Soul Master too, right?

Pfft!

Xiao Tian forcefully suppressed his laughter.

Although Yu Xiaogang was level twenty-nine, Xiao Tian's current Soul Power Level was higher than Ma Hongjun's. Even though he was a teacher, Yu Xiaogang cared most about his reputation. If someone gave things a little push...

Very quickly, Xiao Tian thought of someone suitable: Shao Xin, whose Martial Soul was candy beans!

As a support Soul Master himself, if he learned that Yu Xiaogang's reason for training Ning Rongrong and Oscar this way was to give them some bullshit ability to protect themselves, he probably would not stand idly by, right?

"Rong Rong, are you sure you sneaked out? Did no one notice you at all?"

Ning Rongrong was slightly taken aback by Xiao Tian's sudden question. After thinking carefully, she said, "Originally, I thought I had escaped my father's and grandfathers' surveillance, but now that I think about it, I'm only a Soul Grandmaster. How could I possibly have such ability? Perhaps there are scouts from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect watching from the shadows."

Xiao Tian smiled faintly. That made things easy.

Sure enough, Ning Rongrong only needed a few words that were somewhat like being CPU-ed before she could recover her original intelligence. In the original story, she could be said to have been foolish to the extreme at this stage.

Fortunately, although Ning Rongrong had a bit of princess syndrome, she was relatively simple-minded at times and generally listened to what others said.

If it were those little fairies from his previous life, they had no princess's fate but were full of princess syndrome—and could not be CPU-ed at all!

When Xiao Tian opened his eyes again, they were covered by a layer of Sword Qi.

That was right. Xiao Tian activated the External Soul Bone in his eyes, allowing his Mental Power to increase further for a short period.

Sword Intent Perception!

Xiao Tian diluted his Sword Intent and continuously spread it through the surroundings. In the end, he discovered faint Soul Power fluctuations two hundred meters away in the air behind his right side.

If he was not mistaken, that should be one of the scouts protecting Ning Rongrong.

"Fifteen, first turn into an embroidery needle and fly toward the location I just locked onto. Take that person to find the chubby teacher in the academy, Shao Xin. Have that Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect scout lure Shao Xin to the entrance of Shrek Academy."

Sword Fifteen within Xiao Tian's body flexed its blade with great intelligence. Then it shrank itself to the limit. Only after Xiao Tian and the others had passed did it fly into the air from the ground and head toward that scout.

The scout hiding in the shadows to protect Ning Rongrong was greatly alarmed, becoming extremely vigilant. He had actually felt someone's Mental Power lock onto him just now!

Then he saw an extremely tiny sword flying toward him and gradually growing larger until it settled into a small sword fifty centimeters long.

Sword Fifteen was covered in Sword Qi as it wrote several words in the air.

'Your young miss has a task for you. Follow me, or she'll tell her grandfathers!'

Cold sweat immediately broke out on the scout's forehead, and he hurriedly followed behind Fifteen in secret.

He did not dare provoke that Little Witch. If Ning Rongrong really spoke ill of him to the two Titled Douluo, he would likely be punished.

Before long, after following Sword Fifteen around Shrek for several circles, they finally spotted the chubby teacher Xiao Tian had mentioned on a path.

'Find a way to lure him to wait at the entrance of Shrek Academy.'

Sword Fifteen carved another line of words into the air.

As Shao Xin walked down the road, he was thinking that those new students should have begun training under Yu Xiaogang's guidance by now. He wondered how Yu Xiaogang, this so-called Master, was training them.

Also, who had been capable of defeating Tang San? It seemed this group of new students had several formidable characters.

That was why Shao Xin had decided to leave his office today and take a look at this group of new students, to get acquainted with them.

But he had gone to the training ground earlier and found no one there, which had left him puzzled.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a small sword flew past Shao Xin's body and embedded itself in the ground before him. A small note was attached to the sword.

Huh?

Shao Xin looked behind him but found nothing. Who was it?

Out of curiosity, Shao Xin removed and unfolded the note attached to the small sword. It contained only a single sentence.

Go to the academy entrance. Destroy this after reading.
