"Once this training ends, I will defeat you with my own hands."
After these words, ignoring the colorful expression on Dai Mubai's face, she turned and trotted a few steps to catch up with Xia Ran.
On the other side, Oscar also ran from the back of the line to the front.
He looked at Ning Rongrong with a fawning expression.
"Rongrong, I'm sorry about yesterday. I was momentarily carried away by excitement. Can you please forgive me?"
As he spoke, he deliberately put on a pitiful and innocent expression, completely opposite to the overbearing image he projected yesterday.
If there was one thing in common, it was that the same face making different expressions looked equally sleazy!
"I'm begging you, I really know I was wrong, and I can offer compensation."
"Compensation? My Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has vast wealth; do you think I care about your measly compensation?"
How could Ning Rongrong possibly forgive him? She had already made her plans: once the training ended, she would return to the sect first.
On one hand, she wanted to gain Chen Xin's approval as soon as possible to eliminate his hostility toward Xia Ran.
On the other hand, she wanted to find someone to kill Oscar!
That's right, not just to teach him a lesson, but to kill him outright!
If given the chance, she would even kill Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Ma Hongjun.
As a successor to the Upper Three Sects, being bullied by a bunch of bumpkins—who wouldn't harbor murderous intent!
"Let's talk about anything else when we get back."
This simple sentence made Oscar feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Talk when we get back! That was essentially passing a death sentence on himself.
He truly regretted it now, regretting being so impulsive yesterday and doing such a thing.
However, no matter how pitiful he sounded, Ning Rongrong never once looked him in the eye.
"Also, please stop pestering me in the future. I already have someone I like."
"What? You have someone you like?"
Oscar was stunned. It had only been a few days since enrollment; didn't you say before that you didn't have anyone you liked? How did it change so quickly?
Ning Rongrong turned her head, her beautiful eyes fixed on Oscar, her expression extremely firm.
"That's right, I like Xia Ran!"
"I like him the most, I like him super much, and I want to be with him forever."
"Don't come bother me again in the future; I'm afraid Xia Ran will misunderstand."
After saying this, she didn't forget to show a sweet smile, as if uttering these words had triggered some wonderful memories.
Xia Ran, standing to the side, was not pleased and frowned as he said.
"Don't use me as a shield for your romantic matters."
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong's little devil nature revealed itself as she grabbed Xia Ran's arm.
"What? Can't I say I like you!"
"Hmph!"
Seeing this, Oscar's world collapsed.
"No! No! No~"
His long, drawn-out wail startled Zhao Wuji, who was nearby.
He hurried over, thinking someone had started a fight with Xia Ran.
"Isn't this student Oscar? What's the matter?"
"I can't choose my third spirit ring, I can't choose, it's too hard~~~"
Facing Oscar's bizarre behavior, Ning Rongrong turned her head away with a look of disgust.
"Psycho!"
By evening, Zhao Wuji led the group to find a small inn.
Unsurprisingly, they ran into Blue Sunshine Academy.
Dai Mubai was already holding a belly full of fire because of the day's events, and he didn't hold back his tongue when he encountered these people.
His words were foul, and his taunts were even harsher than in the original story.
A great battle between the two sides was on the verge of breaking out, but unfortunately, without Ning Rongrong's support and Zhu Zhuqing's reinforcements, the four of them fought very arduously.
As for why they counted as four, it was because Oscar was useless!
Xiao Wu and Dai Mubai were both close-range fighters, but Xiao Wu was only level 29 and lacked defensive spirit skills, so the poor girl was focused by the crowd and bombarded with various spirit skills for a long time.
Tang San could only use his Blue Silver Grass to interfere from the back, muttering about the Way of Seeking Death while retreating to avoid enemy attacks.
In the end, it was only when Xia Ran couldn't watch anymore that he stepped in to stop everyone.
At this moment, Xiao Wu had already been beaten unconscious, and he carried her back from the battlefield.
"If you don't have the ability, don't go looking for trouble. Are you satisfied now that your teammate has been beaten like this?"
This remark was directed at Dai Mubai. Xia Ran truly could not understand Flender's educational philosophy; besides creating a bunch of bullies who pick on the weak, what else could it accomplish?
Dai Mubai struggled to stand up. Although he possessed the White Tiger Shield skill, he had been under constant siege ever since Xiao Wu fell.
His figure was currently in a wretched state; his Martial Soul Avatar was on the verge of dissipating, and his once pristine white clothes and golden hair were now tattered and torn.
"What the hell do you know! The Dean said that those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre."
Perhaps he had been holding back too much while facing Xia Ran, but somehow, Dai Mubai found the courage to utter these words with a look of resentment.
Before Xia Ran could say anything, the members of Blue Sunshine Academy were the first to burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! Still running your mouth even after being beaten like this? You really live up to the White Tiger Martial Soul. If only your fists were as hard as your mouth."
"Exactly! Did that teacher of yours tell you to say the same thing to a Titled Douluo?"
"Shrek Academy? Never even heard of the name. A bunch of rabble."
Chapter 25 Blue Sunshine Academy
Each taunt fell into his ears, causing Dai Mubai's face to flush red as he limped back to the group.
Seeing this, Oscar hurried forward to support him, activating his first soul skill in an attempt to restore his injuries.
However, the people from Blue Sunshine Academy were relentless, continuing their taunts and spewing trash talk as if it cost nothing, making Xia Ran knit his brows in annoyance.
"Tsk~ How annoying!"
Although he didn't feel much sense of belonging to Shrek Academy, he had, after all, lived there for many years.
He had originally intended to ignore the taunts of these clowns.
But this group was simply too noisy!
[Void Domain]
With his back turned to the group from Blue Sunshine Academy, Xia Ran instantly expanded his domain, shrouding everyone, including Tang San and the others, within it.
[Devour]
The Blue Sunshine students, who had been spouting nonsense just a second ago, fell silent in the blink of an eye.
Thud, thud, thud~
After several dull sounds of bodies hitting the ground, only the girl who had been teased by Dai Mubai and the others remained standing in place.
"This... what did you do to them!"
The young girl's eyes were filled with terror. She covered her mouth tightly with her hands, forcing herself not to make a sound, her delicate body trembling uncontrollably.
It was too eerie!!!
In just an instant, everyone had collapsed, and that figure hadn't even turned his head.
At this moment, Tang San felt a massive shock in his heart.
This Xia Ran seems even stronger than he was a few days ago!
Dai Mubai's face flushed red. Seeing the Blue Sunshine students—whom they had struggled against for so long without gaining any advantage—lose all combat capability in the blink of an eye before Xia Ran, he felt both ashamed and wary.
"Take them and get lost!"
The cold, emotionless voice reached her ears, crushing the last line of defense in the girl's heart.
She collapsed in terror and let out a loud scream.
Xia Ran hadn't expected her to have such poor mental fortitude. With no other choice, he simply devoured her soul power as well.
With that, all the Blue Sunshine students present passed out.
The commotion here finally drew Ye Zhiqiu over. Looking at the fallen students and the Shrek group opposite them, he understood what had happened in an instant.
However, the aura of the people opposite him was formidable; even he, a Soul King, could not probe their true strength, so he dared not act rashly.
"I wonder, little friend, why you would lay such heavy hands on my students."
Xia Ran placed Xiao Wu beside Ning Rongrong and injected some soul power into her body to make the girl feel a bit better.
He then turned to look at Ye Zhiqiu.
"You know the answer!"
"It was just a small conflict. They are only suffering from soul power exhaustion; they will be fine after resting for a few days back home."
Xia Ran also knew that Dai Mubai had started this, and his side was not entirely in the right.
But things had reached this point, and soul masters were bound to have conflicts. Since a fight had already broken out, it was better to let their fists do the talking rather than argue about who was right or wrong.
Moreover, he hadn't laid heavy hands on these students; he had merely devoured their soul power completely, causing them to faint.
"Does your Excellency not intend to give me an explanation?"
