It was only because Chang Feng had been jealous of Huohuo and her cousin that all this drama had happened.
But when the students from the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy stepped forward to speak up for their teacher, Huohuo and the others didn't show any sign of backing down. Instead, they stirred up the Demon Power of the students from the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
The first Demon Power that the young male student had released was a ten-year Demon Power representing white. Huohuo couldn't help sneering at him, her face full of disdain.
"So this is the so-called advanced Spirit Master Academy? It actually has a ten-year Demon Power. Looks like I was right to say that its students are all trash."
"Brother, don't be rash. Let me handle him."
After saying that, Huohuo took the lead in releasing her Demon Power.
Han San, O'Sullivan, and even the three girls, including Duoxu, followed suit, urging their soul power and causing their auras to surge around them.
Seeing this, all the students from the Shrek Academy looked grave. Even the students who had been watching from the stands wore expressions of envy and respect.
But unlike everyone else, Luo Yueyan's eyes were filled with amusement.
[So he really isn't afraid to run his mouth.]
[The first soul ring of the man who dared call them trash was white, and he didn't even know whether the guy was a qualified Spirit Master. That Qin Ming, who had once graduated from the Shrek Academy, was clearly no better. Even his fifth soul ring had been a thousand-year one.]
[How could a fifth soul ring be as important as a seventh? Even so, it was still a soul ring acquired by surpassing the usual limit after a thousand years. Qin Ming had been called a Soul Emperor who reached the rank of Spirit King in just his second year at the Star Luo Imperial Academy. Yet his fifth soul ring had only been a thousand-year one. That was all anyone needed to know about how unreliable the Shrek Academy's teaching was.]
[Now Huohuo's saying that the first soul ring of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's students is trash. Doesn't that make it clear that Qin Ming and the other old students from Shrek were trash too?]
[Even though a genius with a bright future got turned into this kind of student, he still feels grateful to Shrek. Shrek really is harmful.]
Huohuo and Han San had no idea what Luo Yueyan was thinking.
At that moment, all he wanted was to carry out the lesson he had planned for Dai Mubai. With his height and strength, he didn't dare act recklessly; he'd already learned his lesson from that earlier disaster.
So when the students from the Shrek Academy came forward, Huohuo and the others didn't show any sign of fear. Instead, they were roused by the martial souls of the academy's old students and began to challenge them.
The old students from the Shrek Academy could see that Huohuo and the others were no ordinary people. Their best soul rings alone were something the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy couldn't match.
To keep the students from getting caught up in the fight, Luo Yueyan stepped forward and said,
"You kids don't know any better. You're young and reckless, picking fights without a thought. Tell your academy's old students to come out."
At those words, O'Sullivan sneered.
"Just because you're some old geezer, you think you can lecture us? You want to challenge our old students? Our students are more than enough to deal with you."
As O'Sullivan's voice rang out, everyone realized it was Luo Yueyan.
Even Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and the three girls from Duoxu looked at O'Sullivan as if he were an idiot.
He'd clearly mistaken O'Sullivan for Dai Mubai. The plump guy's expression was filled with anger.
But now he'd gotten himself into trouble with Luo Yueyan, whose rank had reached Spirit King. How could he not be furious?
If he bullied someone weaker than him, or if someone weaker bullied him, this kind of crowd would always put on a look of righteous indignation.
Just then, a lesson from Chang Feng about how to deal with a crowd also reminded Huohuo and O'Sullivan that they'd be seen as troublemakers if they got involved.
If Huohuo, O'Sullivan, and even Yueyan had been around for a few more years, they would naturally have become the sort of troublemakers who later joined the Shrek Academy with Han San. That just went to show that troublemaking was in his nature.
Seeing O'Sullivan point at him and call him a king of trash, Luo Yueyan felt a wave of sorrow. He had tried so hard to avoid eating from the same pot as the Shrek Academy, yet now he was laughing in anger.
"Fine. I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your academy's old students. Come on, let's go outside."
With that, he led the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's students toward the exit.
Huohuo gave a cold snort, then prepared to follow O'Sullivan. Han San, standing nearby with the two girls, hurriedly called out to him.
"Wait a moment. Let Luo Yueyan come with us too."
Huohuo pursed his lips, unconcerned.
"No need to trouble that guy. I can take care of this trash myself."
Han San looked as though he hadn't heard him. He walked up to Luo Yueyan and said,
"Luo Yueyan, since the old students from the Shrek Academy are looking for trouble with Huohuo, as his classmate, I'll help him out."
Luo Yueyan carefully considered the delicious food he'd just tasted and replied calmly,
"That's not them looking for trouble with him. He brought it on himself. I'd be happy to go with you and bully them."
At those words, Han San's expression turned strange. He hadn't expected Luo Yueyan to refuse to hide behind him.
In Han San's view, they were classmates. Since Huohuo had helped the others stand up for him, Han San naturally had to take his side and act as his support.
But Luo Yueyan's reaction was completely unexpected.
Without Luo Yueyan's help, Han San would probably have to use hidden weapons if he wanted to defeat Dai Mubai, the Soul King from the Shrek Academy.
Han San gave Luo Yueyan a long look. He didn't insist on helping him; instead, he turned to Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, and Duoxu, and said,
"Xiao Wu, come with me. What about you two? You're not thinking of standing by and watching, are you?"
Han San knew Xiao Wu well. She wouldn't just sit by and let trouble happen, so he asked her to come along.
But what he hadn't expected was that before Xiao Wu could answer, Zhu Zhuqing and Duoxu each took one of her arms and pulled her aside, then said to Han San,
"Sorry, I've also realized this is getting out of hand. He's the one picking a fight. Just like Luo Yueyan, I don't want to bully anyone."
"Xiao Wu feels the same way."
Han San's expression turned stiff. He hadn't expected Duoxu to choose to stand with Luo Yueyan.
Zhu Zhuqing's choice was perfectly normal. Han San could tell that she and Luo Yueyan were on good terms.
But Duoxu had also always been at odds with Luo Yueyan. In her heart, the importance of the four of them together didn't even compare to a single Luo Yueyan.
Han San felt deeply uncomfortable, but he knew this wasn't the time to say anything. There was still a chance he could settle the score with them later.
Han San glanced at Xiao Wu, who had remained silent.
"Xiao Wu, you don't think the same way, do you?"
Xiao Wu looked up, took a deep breath, and replied,
"Third Brother, I don't like the way he's bullying someone weaker than him, so I won't help him bully anyone."
At Xiao Wu's answer, Han San's expression instantly darkened.
From his understanding of Xiao Wu, as long as he spoke up, she would surely stand by him.
But who could have known what was going on?
Was she choosing to turn her back on the brother she'd spent years with, just because of Luo Yueyan, Zhu Zhuqing, and Duoxu?
