"Your Excellency Dugu Bo, I respect you as a Titled Douluo, but there has to be some reason in all things!"

"My brother is an elder of Spirit Hall. You..."

Flender took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the rage and fear in his heart.

"Crack..."

Dugu Bo stomped on Zhao Wuji's right arm.

That thick arm was like a withered branch beneath his foot, breaking apart cleanly and completely.

"Ah..."

Zhao Wuji let out a miserable scream as his entire right arm was crushed into a pile of mangled flesh.

"An elder of Spirit Hall?"

"Go tell him that this old man fears nothing now."

"Forget an elder of Spirit Hall—even if the Pope came in person, this old man would still fight him!"

"Yan Yan is this old man's lifeline!"

"Whoever dares touch her, this old man will kill!"

"This old man doesn't care who he is or who stands behind him..."

"Those who stand in my way die!"

Dugu Bo tilted his head as he looked at Flender, an almost crazed light flickering in his emerald green pupils.

The fury of a Titled Douluo burned with tangible force.

Flender was forced back three steps by that pressure, cold sweat streaming down his back.

He could see it now.

Old Poison was not merely talking.

He had truly gone mad.

A madman empowered by the strength of a Titled Douluo was more terrifying than anything.

"Please wait a moment, Your Excellency!"

Flender practically ground out those words through clenched teeth.

"I'll go right..."

Before he could finish, two voices rang out from the distance.

"Dean! What's going on? Who the hell dared cause trouble at Shrek?"

Everyone turned around and saw Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai walking in from outside the academy.

Ma Hongjun still looked as carefree as ever, a stalk of grass hanging from his mouth. He had clearly just returned from enjoying himself outside.

Dai Mubai walked beside him, his brows slightly furrowed as his wary gaze swept over everyone present.

When they saw the corpses on the ground, both of them halted at the same time.

"Fatty! Where have you been lately?"

Flender hurried over and asked in a low, urgent voice.

"I haven't gone anywhere. I've just been staying in Suotuo City."

Ma Hongjun scratched his head and answered carelessly.

Dugu Bo's gaze fell upon Ma Hongjun.

He sized the fat man up and down...

His features, his build, the fluctuations of his Soul Power.

His frown deepened.

This was him?

This piece of trash had defeated Yu Tianheng in an instant and then captured Yan Yan alive?

No matter how lacking Yu Tianheng might be, he was still a genius student of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

His Soul Power was over level thirty, and Dugu Yan was not far behind.

This fat man with his bloated face and ears did not look like someone capable of crushing the two of them.

Had he...

really been used as someone else's weapon?

"You are Ma Hongjun?"

Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes, his voice icy.

"Your Excellency, honorable Your Excellency, this lowly one is indeed Ma Hongjun—the genuine Ma Hongjun!"

The moment Ma Hongjun saw that a Titled Douluo was questioning him, the stalk of grass fell from his mouth. He hurriedly bowed and scraped, his ingratiating manner seeping into his bones.

"What proof do you have?"

"Tell me clearly where you have been lately."

Dugu Bo stared into Ma Hongjun's eyes.

"Proof? Yes, yes, yes!"

"Your Excellency, this lowly one has been in Suotuo City the entire time and hasn't left even once!"

"The madam at the brothel can testify for me. I go there every day, so she knows me!"

"And the Soul Fighting Arena! The people there can testify too. I even fought a match there yesterday."

"If this lowly one is Ma Hongjun or not, Your Excellency only needs to ask!"

As though he had seized a lifeline, Ma Hongjun hurriedly explained.

Ma Hongjun spoke with absolute conviction. He did not feel there was anything shameful about visiting brothels; instead, he sounded as though he were reporting an achievement.

Dugu Bo stared at him for a long while.

With the discerning eye of a Titled Douluo, he could tell at a glance whether this fat man was lying.

This trash...

was telling the truth.

There were indeed witnesses to his whereabouts. It could not be faked.

"You..."

"Whom have you offended recently?"

Dugu Bo slowly withdrew his gaze.

Those emerald green eyes swept over Flender, over Zhao Wuji, and over every person from Shrek Academy present.

The moment he asked that question, everyone from Shrek froze.

It was not that they had been stumped.

It was that they had offended too many people and did not know where to begin.

Flender opened his mouth, then closed it again.

Zhao Wuji clutched his right arm, now crushed into mangled flesh. Sweat covered his head from the pain, but his expression was equally indescribable.

It was not that they had never offended anyone.

They offended people wherever they went.

"Speak."

"Look into my eyes and speak immediately!"

Dugu Bo's voice suddenly turned cold, and the phantom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor lit up behind him.

Just then.

A clear voice came from the distance.

"Your Excellency Poison Douluo!"

Everyone looked toward the voice.

Yu Tianheng and Qin Ming were striding over.

"Senior Dugu."

Yu Tianheng's face was still somewhat pale, but he had recovered considerably.

He walked up to Dugu Bo and cupped his fists in salute.

"Qin Ming? What is your relationship with them?"

Dugu Bo nodded, his gaze landing on Qin Ming.

"In reply to Your Excellency, Qin Ming graduated from Shrek Academy. Before going to teach at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I cultivated here all along."

Qin Ming glanced at Flender and the others before answering respectfully.

Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes.

"Your Excellency just asked... whom Shrek Academy had offended."

"To be frank, I'm afraid that question cannot be answered."

"Because Shrek Academy's motto is... those who do not dare cause trouble are mediocrities."

"All of us students of Shrek Academy have always taken pride in that."

"As for those we have provoked, if they lined up in a queue, they could probably circle Heaven Dou City once."

Qin Ming took a deep breath and continued.

"So... you offended a whole bunch of people, but you don't know who did it."

"That person abducted Yan Yan and used her handwriting to borrow this old man's blade to kill you."

Dugu Bo turned to look at Flender, an unreadable emotion churning in his emerald green eyes.

"Yes, yes, yes! Your Excellency is wise! That must be it! Someone is framing us and using another's hand to kill!"

It was as though Flender had suddenly been enlightened. Forgetting all dignity as the dean, he nodded repeatedly.

Smack!

Another slap.

This slap sent Flender coughing up a mouthful of blood.

His glasses flew far away, and he rolled three times across the ground.

"But you still brought this upon yourselves!"

"If you hadn't offended so many people, who would have captured Yan Yan?"

"At the end of the day... you lot are still a bunch of disasters!"

Dugu Bo flew into a rage.

"Dugu Bo! Don't push people too far!"

"Even if you are a Titled Douluo, you cannot act without reason!"

"Whom we offend is our business. Your granddaughter's disappearance is your business. What right do you have to lay hands on our dean!"

Qin Ming's expression changed. He stepped in front of Flender and angrily rebuked Dugu Bo.
