"Who are you?"

"Who dares act so arrogantly before our Judgment Hall?"

As they looked at the figure that had suddenly appeared, voices of suspicion rang out from both sides at once.

"I'm a good person." Lin Mian's unserious voice reached everyone's ears.

As his disciple, Zhu Zhuqing only wanted to cover her face. Her master truly acted the same no matter when it was.

"What help? Kid, are you tired of living, or are you blind? Just because you've got a girl with you, you think you can always show off?"

It was still Zhao Wuji's irritable and arrogant voice.

"What help? You'll find out soon.

"I only stand on the side of justice. You're too ugly, and clearly, you don't look righteous enough, so I won't help you."

"So you few can just fall down now."

Lin Mian imitated the Purple Sweet Potato Monster and lightly snapped his fingers.

In an instant, under everyone's astonished gazes, the people from Shrek Academy dropped neatly to the ground.

The Shrek group, who had just wanted to rely on their own strength to bargain with Judgment Hall, completely lost their ability to resist.

Zhu Zhuqing, standing beside him, was utterly dumbfounded. Her master was actually this powerful.

Who exactly was her master?

Could he really be His Excellency the Arbiter?

The people from Judgment Hall were also frozen in place, especially that Soul Sage. He could sense that two people on the other side were evenly matched with him in strength.

Even those two had fallen to the ground like that. If he faced this person himself, his fate would only be worse.

Besides, he kept feeling that this person's voice sounded familiar.

It was as though he had heard that voice somewhere before.

He simply could not remember where at the moment.

"Thank you, Senior, for lending us a hand. May I ask where you are from? Our Judgment Hall will certainly reward you generously."

This was not the first time Judgment Hall had received help from someone while apprehending criminals.

In such cases, Judgment Hall would later thank the person who had acted.

"Speaking of generous rewards, there really is something I want."

"Please speak, Senior." The Soul Sage from Judgment Hall looked serious.

"That little girl's Soul Tool Car is pretty good. I heard it was developed by your Judgment Hall. Can you get one for me?"

Lin Mian looked like a lion opening its jaws wide.

Although Judgment Hall was his, asking for something himself and having someone else give it to him felt different.

He could not let those people in the hall think that their hall master had just emerged from seclusion and immediately started looting the hall's belongings.

Seeing her master's greedy expression, Zhu Zhuqing shattered her fantasy once again.

Impossible! Absolutely impossible!

His Excellency the Arbiter was such a great person. How could he possibly be greedy for money!

Her master had to be bluffing.

"This..." The Soul Sage looked troubled. "Senior, I cannot make the decision on this matter. I'll need to apply to the main hall."

Even he coveted something like a Soul Tool Car. Within Judgment Hall, only a few Red Badge Enforcers possessed one.

It was not something they could hand over just because someone wanted it.

"It's fine. At worst, I'll ask someone else."

Lin Mian walked over to the stunned Ning Rongrong with the appearance of a big bad wolf.

"Little girl, do you want to take me as your master? You saw it just now. My strength isn't bad. I should be more than qualified to be your master."

"As for the apprenticeship gift, something simple will do. This Soul Tool Car will be enough."

The last trace of fantasy in Zhu Zhuqing's heart was completely extinguished.

With her master looking like he was abducting an innocent young girl, he definitely could not be His Excellency the Arbiter.

The few people from Judgment Hall looked at one another.

It was their first time encountering such a strange powerhouse.

That move just now had somewhat exceeded their imagination.

No one could have guessed that this handsome but frivolous young man might possess the strength of a Title Douluo.

That Soul Sage was stronger overall, so he quickly came back to his senses and began giving orders.

"Alright, don't just stand there. Take all these people from Shrek Academy away. Let's go back and report our completion."

The others from Judgment Hall shifted their gazes away from Lin Mian and used specially made ropes to bind the Shrek group.

These ropes had also been developed by Judgment Hall and could restrain Soul Power.

However, they could only restrain Soul Kings at most. Their effect on Soul Sages like Flender and Zhao Wuji was negligible.

"So, what do you think? Is that acceptable?" Lin Mian's voice was still carrying that tone of someone tricking a little girl.

Ning Rongrong recovered from her shock.

As someone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she naturally knew how powerful a Soul Sage was. Within the sect, a Soul Sage was absolutely a pillar of support. Losing even one could severely weaken the sect.

Yet such a powerful existence had been so utterly helpless before this man.

Just what level was his cultivation at? Could he be on par with Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone?

Ning Rongrong could not figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it. What she did know was that having such a powerhouse take her as a disciple was absolutely a wonderful thing.

"Of course. Rongrong pays her respects to Master. This Soul Tool Car will be Rongrong's apprenticeship gift to Master."

"Not bad. From now on, you're my second disciple. This is your senior sister, Zhu Zhuqing. Get to know each other."

Lin Mian nodded in satisfaction. Now, not only had he gained a disciple, but he had also gotten a car for free. The smugness on his face could not be concealed at all.

Seeing her master looking like a shady merchant, Zhu Zhuqing only wanted to cover her face and flee.

His Excellency the Arbiter was so upright and honorable. He would absolutely never do something like this!

Ning Rongrong looked toward Zhu Zhuqing, and the first thing that caught her attention was Zhu Zhuqing's ample chest.

This senior sister looked about the same age as her, so why was that part so much bigger than hers?

What had she eaten while growing up?

No one gave Ning Rongrong an answer.

As the senior sister, even though she somewhat wanted to run away, Zhu Zhuqing ultimately stepped forward.

"Junior Sister, please rise. Master... he's actually quite a good person."

Zhu Zhuqing had originally wanted to say that her master seemed to have something wrong with him.

In the end, she held it back and gave her master some face before her junior sister.

"Thank you, Master. Thank you, Senior Sister."

Ning Rongrong rose naturally, wearing a proper smile. She looked every bit like an aristocratic young lady who had received an excellent education.

[Mission: Take Ning Rongrong as a disciple.] [Reward: Immortal Herb Qiluo Tulip (issued), ten Soul Tool Communicators (issued)] [As the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong grew up spoiled. Although she appears to speak appropriately,] [in reality, she is willful and unruly, acts recklessly, looks down on ordinary people, and believes that anyone other than Soul Masters cannot even be considered human.] [Mission: Train Ning Rongrong and correct her way of thinking.] [Reward: Soul Power raised to Level 20, Five-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring (can be absorbed without difficulty), Ten-Thousand-Year Image Soul Bone (can copy another person's soul skill at 99% of its power)]

After confirming that he had received the rewards and accepted the new mission, Lin Mian smiled.

The new mission was not bad. He liked it.

Train a disciple, huh? He was best at training people, and he had already thought of a method.

"Wait a moment. I still have something I need to ask."

Lin Mian's voice rang out once more.
