Making Trouble

"Rongrong, are you sure this is it?" Flender asked, his voice tinged with strangeness.

Ning Rongrong nodded, "Yes, that's right. Heaven Dou Royal Academy wouldn't move, would it? I'm sure it's here."

"But this is a mountain!"

"This entire mountain belongs to Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Oh, and that forest behind it and the lake at the foot of the mountain to the left are also within the academy's management scope. We're about to enter the academy's grounds."

Glancing at the dumbfounded Flender, Grandmaster said leisurely, "Nestled by the mountains and water, it truly is a good place."

The other teachers also nodded in admiration.

The scenery here was indeed beautiful, especially at this moment when the sun was setting and the sky was filled with the colors of dusk.

Against the backdrop of the red clouds in the west, both the lake at the foot of the mountain and the thousand-meter-high mountain covered with various plants gave people a sense of a paradise.

It was less than twenty kilometers from Heaven Dou City, the capital of the Heavenly Dou Empire, and the environment was so beautiful.

Thinking that this would be where they would live from now on, including Zhao Wuji, the teachers felt very satisfied.

Only Flender said unconvincingly:

"What's so great about a good environment and a large place? Have they cultivated any strong individuals? They're far inferior to our Shrek Academy. Our place may be small, but we have many monsters."

Grandmaster nodded in deep agreement:

"Flender, to be honest, I still don't quite understand why so many children with excellent potential would be tricked into joining your Shrek Academy. How exactly do you lure them in?"

"I use... Bah, what do you mean 'tricked'? I call it personal charm." Flender quickly corrected himself, glaring at Grandmaster:

"Let's go up the mountain. We'll be able to make it in time for dinner. Let's see how the food is here. If the treatment isn't good, I won't stay."

At this moment, Flender looked like a sulking child, and even the Shrek Seven Devils beside him couldn't help but chuckle.

At the same time, they could understand Flender's feelings. After all, their Shrek Academy, the crystallization of their hard work, was over, and in his eyes, Heaven Dou Royal Academy was more like a rival.

After walking a few steps, trouble arrived.

"Stop, who are you?"

Ten soul masters, about eighteen or nineteen years old, blocked their path.

Although they hadn't summoned their Martial Souls, their goose-yellow school uniforms clearly indicated that these students belonged to Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Flender said boldly, "We are from Shrek Academy. We've been invited by your Heaven Dou Royal Academy for an exchange. Lead the way."

The young man leading the group sized Flender up a few times, then looked at the others' attire, a hint of disdain appearing on his face.

"You country bumpkins, coming to our academy for an exchange? I think you must be beggars from somewhere. Hurry up and scram. Otherwise, we'll have to use force."

After traveling for more than half a month, the Shrek Academy group was indeed a bit travel-worn, but they weren't as pathetic as he described.

The leading student from Heaven Dou Royal Academy was clearly judging them by their appearance.

Seeing that the Shrek Academy group was dressed simply, and coupled with Flender's somewhat arrogant words that displeased him, he spoke those words.

Few people who entered Heaven Dou Royal Academy had true abilities; the vast majority got in through connections and noble titles.

This had always been the biggest problem of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, otherwise, why would they only have the reputation of being the number one academy in the Heavenly Dou Empire without the strength to match?

Let alone the teachers of Shrek Academy, who were all proud individuals, otherwise, they wouldn't have given up the opportunity to join soul master families or various forces to found Shrek Academy.

At this moment, even the Shrek Seven Devils were filled with anger at the other party's rude words.

Dai Mubai snorted coldly, "Ling Tian is already in a bad mood, so I'll take it out on you guys first!"

Dai Mubai's figure flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of Flender, a chilling aura erupting.

Bang--!

Dai Mubai kicked the speaking youth flying, and then directly activated his Martial Soul.

The sudden change caught these noble disciples of Heaven Dou Royal Academy by surprise. They never expected that the other party would dare to make a move at the entrance of their academy.

Except for a few who were slightly more quick-witted and quickly activated their Martial Souls, most of them retreated rapidly, fearing being caught in the crossfire.

Even for those few students who activated their Martial Souls, upon seeing Dai Mubai's shining three soul rings, they no longer dared to step forward and quickly retreated.

In their minds, there was no concept of the weak defeating the strong; soul rings represented an absolute gap.

And among this group, not a single one of them had even reached level thirty.

Dai Mubai's combat experience was incredibly rich. Adhering to the principle of fighting first and talking later, he didn't even give the other members of the Shrek Seven Devils a chance to act.

With his tiger-like movements, he had already sent flying a few of those who had retreated too slowly.

Watching Dai Mubai make his move, Flender and the others couldn't help but frown.

They were not displeased because Dai Mubai was beating the other party, but because the quality of these Heaven Dou Royal Academy students was simply too poor.

Flender said to Zhao Wuji beside him:

"These are the students of Heaven Dou Royal Academy? They're simply a pile of trash. I'm starting to doubt if coming here was the right decision."

Zhao Wuji gave a wry smile, "Don't ask me, how would I know? The Imperial Fighting Team that fought fiercely with the little monsters last time wasn't like this. Perhaps there's dross everywhere."

Even Grandmaster, who had strongly advocated for coming here, was speechless at this moment.

"Alright, Mubai," Flender called out to Dai Mubai. If he continued fighting, it wouldn't just be a beating; there might be injuries.

Dai Mubai then withdrew his hand, the evil light in his demonic eyes flickering, "Let's see who's the one rolling away."

His anger and resentment from not finding Ling Tian had been vented considerably, and he felt much better.

"You, how dare you cause trouble at our Heaven Dou Royal Academy? This is a provocation to the empire. Just you wait, just you wait..."

Flender snorted, "You've got a good hat to throw, but it's just trash. Call out your academy's teachers."

Just then, a vigorous voice suddenly rang out.

"What's going on? Why all the noise?"

From within the shaded path on the hillside, a figure rapidly approached.

Dressed in silver, appearing to be around Flender's age, with a face like a silver plate, thick eyebrows, and large eyes, hands clasped behind his back, he had the air of a master.

"Great, Teacher Sun is here."

The leading youth from before looked as if he had found a life-saving straw, almost scrambling to meet him.

"Teacher Sun, they dared to come here and cause trouble, and they beat us. You must seek justice for us!"

Teacher Sun looked at the student before him, who resembled a stray dog, and couldn't help but frown deeply, "Xue Beng, what kind of state are you in?"

In front of outsiders, he didn't scold his student further and turned his gaze towards the Shrek Academy group.

He said, "Everyone, if you have something to discuss, could you please come back tomorrow? Our academy's Ling Tian and Yu Tianheng are about to have a match, and we likely don't have time to entertain you right now."
