As Zhu Zhuqing was the first to leave, Ning Rongrong, worried for her, followed after her. Suotuo Great Soul Arena was crowded with all sorts of people, and the "Shrek Seven Devils" were currently in the spotlight. It was inevitable that someone alone outside might encounter danger.

Outside the door, seeing Ning Rongrong heading toward Zhu Zhuqing, Ye Hao was just about to leave when he suddenly heard a conversation from within the Lounge...

It was about him.

"Third Brother, who exactly is this Ye Hao you mentioned before? Why do you dislike him so much?"

With nothing better to do, Ma Hongjun casually brought it up.

The moment she heard the name "Ye Hao," Xiao Wu's expression abruptly changed. She glared fiercely at Ma Hongjun and snapped, "Dead Fatso, why are you bringing him up for no reason? Looking to get beaten?"

As far as Xiao Wu was concerned, she did not have the slightest favorable impression of Ye Hao.

From the first time he had put her in a chokehold and humiliated her in front of everyone, to the years that followed, Ye Hao had never given Xiao Wu even a shred of respect. Sometimes, he even ate rabbit heads right in front of her—ones specially cooked from ten-year Soft Bone Rabbits he had gone into the forest to find. Every time, it enraged Xiao Wu terribly.

There was nothing she could do about it. She simply could not beat Ye Hao.

Under normal circumstances, Tang San definitely would not have tolerated it. If it had been anyone else, dying a hundred times would not have been enough.

But Ye Hao was Ye Hao. Because of Grandmaster's prior warning not to make an enemy of him and instead befriend him, Tang San had endured until now.

Tang San narrowed his eyes, his voice full of resentment. "That was three months ago..."

Three months ago, only a few days before graduation, Grandmaster had sought Tang San out alone. His purpose was to have him enroll in Flender's Shrek Academy. Tang San's talent was obvious to all, and sending him to Shrek Academy had been Grandmaster's idea.

Tang San did not go against it. With Xiao Wu now posing as his sister, the two of them naturally had to go there together.

"Ye Hao, you'll be graduating soon. Pack your things and go to Shrek Academy. In a few days, you'll set off with Xiao San and the others."

Grandmaster stood with his hands behind his back, a confident smile on his face. With Ye Hao and Tang San joining, Flender would surely be overjoyed.

What kind of place was Shrek Academy? Ye Hao knew perfectly well. It was a scam academy with no operating license. Going there meant suffering, and he would have to spend every day with the people he hated most. At the thought of it, Ye Hao could not help but shudder.

"Grandmaster, what are you to me?"

Ye Hao asked expressionlessly.

Grandmaster was slightly stunned. "My student. Why?"

"Your student?"

Ye Hao let out a chuckle. This undoubtedly angered Tang San.

Grandmaster was Tang San's teacher. Ye Hao and Tang San were both Transmigrators, but since they came from different worlds, their views were naturally different.

To Tang San, Grandmaster was his teacher. A teacher for a day was a father for life. Ye Hao's behavior had undoubtedly set him on the Path to Death.

(Who was it again? The first time he went to hunt soul beasts, he nearly exposed his hidden weapons and even considered killing Grandmaster to preserve his secret.)

Two-faced hypocrite.

But to Ye Hao, Grandmaster was merely an ordinary person. He was neither Ye Hao's teacher nor anything else to him.

Ye Hao had gained his current strength step by step on his own. Grandmaster had nothing to do with it.

Those so-called worldly conventions were merely restraints to Ye Hao. Besides, Grandmaster had just spoken in a commanding tone, as though Ye Hao had no choice but to attend Shrek Academy.

"What are you laughing at?"

Grandmaster clearly sensed that something was wrong.

"Grandmaster, a forced melon is never sweet. I've never even heard of Shrek Academy, so there's no need to keep trying to persuade me. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving first."

Ye Hao left without looking back. Grandmaster secretly gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. Ye Hao was as stubborn as an ox; once he made a decision, no one could change it.

Moreover, for some reason, Grandmaster had always vaguely felt that Ye Hao was deliberately opposing him.

(Ye Hao: Take out the "vaguely.")

Ye Hao's behavior just now had undoubtedly crossed Tang San's bottom line. Yet Grandmaster had previously said, "You must never touch Ye Hao. Otherwise, the entire Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy will suffer."

As a result, Tang San could not attack Ye Hao. This condition had undoubtedly tied Tang San's hands.

Why?

Wasn't it because Yu Xiaogang believed that Ye Hao was her son, and that Spirit Hall had people secretly watching over him? If anything happened to Ye Hao today, not only he, but even the entire Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy and Nuoding City itself would be destroyed. No one could bear her wrath.

(Ye Hao: You're really overthinking it.)

Thus, Ye Hao had humiliated Grandmaster to his face. This was also why Tang San hated Ye Hao.

Back to the present...

Inside the "Shrek Seven Devils" Lounge, Dai Mubai slammed his fist onto the table. The round table instantly shattered into four pieces.

"This Ye Hao truly doesn't know what's good for him. What's so bad about our Shrek Academy? He actually looks down on it? Just wait. If I run into him next time, I'll let him see the power of my Evil Eye White Tiger, Dai Mubai."

"Me too!"

Ma Hongjun patted his chest, the fat on his belly jiggling up and down.

"Boss Dai, count me in. He dares look down on Shrek? I, Fatty, will be the first to go after him!"

Outside the door, Ye Hao, wearing a mask, revealed a strange smile. At some point, a small notebook had appeared in his hand.

(Shrek Destruction Plan)

Ye Hao closed the notebook. To destroy and divide Shrek, the first step was to break them apart from within, one by one.

Ye Hao glanced toward where Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong had parted, smiled faintly, and followed after them.

In the vast Soul Fighting Arena lobby, it was now time for the team battles to begin. Most people were watching the intense group fights, and no one paid any attention to the two beautiful young girls sitting in the lobby.

Zhu Zhuqing removed her mask, revealing her beautiful face. Her voluptuous figure was curvaceous and fiery. Ning Rongrong removed her mask as well. The battle had already ended, and with so few people around, there was no longer any need to keep their masks on.

"Zhuqing, don't be angry. Dead Fatso is just like that. When we get back, Xiao Wu and I will deal with him."

Zhu Zhuqing sighed softly. "Rongrong, what do you think..."

"Of Shrek Academy?"

Ning Rongrong: "?"

"Why are you suddenly asking that?"

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head blankly. "Nothing. I just suddenly wanted to ask."

After three months of hardship and struggle, she had gained a new understanding of Shrek Academy. The academy itself was indeed a good one, but what kind of people were in it?

Bad-tempered, always quick to throw hands, and especially...

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at her devilish figure and shook her head helplessly. It wasn't as if she wanted this, either.
