"What is this, Dean Yan? Are you trying to silence me to cover up the ugly face of Shrek Academy?"

Facing Yan Shaozhe's oppressive aura, Ning Que showed no fear whatsoever.

Not only that, he continued to provoke him with his words.

To be honest, if the one acting against him were Xuan Zi, he would truly be wary, fearing that the man might kill him in a fit of rage.

After all, no matter what kind of outrageous thing Xuan Zi did, it would be considered standard operating procedure for him.

But a level 95 Yan Shaozhe simply did not have the qualifications to do so.

Even if the man went mad and tried to strike at him, he would be unable to secure a one-hit kill.

In that case, things became much more interesting.

The three people with Ning Que turned deathly pale upon hearing his words.

Openly provoking a Super Douluo.

Was this the kind of situation they were meant to be involved in?

"A-Que, don't blame your brother for being disloyal, but this matter is just too big; my frail frame can't carry this burden!"

"Rest assured, I owe you for today, and one day, I will definitely find a way to make it up to you."

As Gongyang Mo whispered to himself, he quietly put some distance between himself and Ning Que.

He was truly afraid!

Ning Que did not feel there was anything wrong with that.

This was exactly how it should be!

If he didn't have his background and his confidence, and were just an ordinary Support System Spirit Master, he wouldn't just be provoking a Super Douluo; he would be the first to grovel the moment he encountered one.

One must protect oneself first before discussing anything else, right?

"Ning Que..."

Xi Xi opened her mouth as if to say something, but seeing Ning Que gently shake his head, she understood in her heart and quietly stepped aside as well.

Chen Zifeng, on the other hand, simply stood where he was; he neither moved closer to Ning Que nor showed any intention of taking a step back.

But by merely standing there, he had already made his stance clear.

Ning Que did not say much about this.

He knew this was Chen Zifeng's path of the sword, his own persistence.

After today, perhaps he would gain a significant harvest.

"You are courting death!"

Yan Shaozhe truly wanted to strike at this moment.

He could see it now: whether it was this group of little brats or the failed attempt to recruit Ye Guyi, every single incident was being orchestrated by Ning Que.

Now that Mu En had recovered, what did it matter if they tore up their relationship with the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect?

He simply did not believe that Mu En would cripple him over this matter.

Even if he couldn't kill Ning Que, he would at least turn him into a cripple.

"Shao-zhe, you disappoint me too much!"

Just at that moment, an aged voice drifted leisurely through the air.

The person who arrived was none other than Mu En.

Even though it was merely an avatar, his words were enough to suppress the level 95 Super Douluo, Yan Shaozhe.

After all, this was within Shrek Academy, and with the Golden Tree present, even his avatar could manifest immense power.

"Teacher... I..."

Suppressed by a single thought from his teacher, Yan Shaozhe immediately grew nervous and hurriedly tried to offer a defense.

If he had just struck and crippled Ning Que, and Mu En had intervened afterward, Yan Shaozhe wouldn't have said a word, let alone complained about being scolded or even beaten half to death.

He would have felt he came out ahead.

The problem was that Ning Que was still standing there, completely unharmed, and his actions had been discovered by his teacher; even if his teacher let him off later, he would still feel he had lost.

"Xuan Zi, suspend today's competition. Once everyone has recovered from their injuries, restart the matches."

"After you've handled that, come to the Sea God Pavilion for a meeting!"

Mu En glanced at Xuan Zi, who was still gnawing on a chicken leg as if nothing had happened. He wanted to scold him a few times, but didn't know where to start.

It was truly exhausting.

"Elder Mu, I'll get right on it!"

Seeing that Mu En had appeared, Xuan Zi dared not say another word and hurriedly set to work.

"Ning Que, why not join this old man for the meeting at the Sea God Pavilion? I will give you a reasonable explanation for this matter."

Only then did Mu En look toward Ning Que, his tone gentle and kind.

"Your Excellency Dragon God, please wait a moment. I will head over once my family arrives."

Ning Que was willing to show sufficient respect toward this individual.

Whether it was his reputation or his status as a Limit Douluo powerhouse, he deserved to be treated as such.

Of course, he had heard some conspiracy theories regarding Mu En.

Even if this person's reputation and standing were impeccable, he would not believe it entirely; it was better to wait until the Title Douluo of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect arrived.

If one could avoid gambling with their life, they shouldn't.

"That is only right!"

Mu En did not refuse, and the gaze he directed at Ning Que was filled with admiration and envy.

Why was there no such child within Shrek Academy?

If Shrek Academy had someone with such capability and understanding of how to manipulate hearts, even if their strength were weaker or their talent inferior, Mu En would cultivate them vigorously, perhaps even making them the next Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion at Shrek Academy.

Although he had not paid much attention to this child, based solely on the fact that he could easily mobilize Title Douluo from the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, Mu En felt that even if he were a Support System soul master without strong combat power, he could still firmly hold the position of Sea God Pavilion Master.

For a fleeting moment, Mu En even considered poaching him.

But this thought was quickly stifled.

How could an heir cultivated by the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect be so easily poached?

"Xuan Zi, invite those children to the Sea God Pavilion as well. This Sea God Pavilion meeting concerns them, and they need to know the full situation."

Mu En then went to make arrangements for the others.

Not only Ning Tian and Jin Sheng, but even the severely injured He Caitou and two teachers were invited to the Sea God Pavilion under Mu En's instructions.

They did not have to wait long before two Title Douluo arrived together.

They were the 96th-ranked Crocodile King Douluo, Jin Heng, and the 93rd-ranked Title Douluo, Yang Duo.

Returning to the academy this time, the Thunder Eagle Douluo and the Golden Tiger Douluo did not accompany them, as they had other matters to attend to.

"A-Que, what happened?"

As soon as Yang Duo approached and saw Mu En and Yan Shaozhe not far away, he did not hesitate to immediately manifest his soul rings.

On one hand, it was the arrogance of youth; on the other, it was a display of sharp, unyielding spirit.

So what if he was a Limit Douluo?

As a soul master, just because the opponent was powerful, did that mean one shouldn't even have the courage to fight?

Seeing a 93rd-ranked Title Douluo dare to manifest his soul rings in front of Elder Mu, Yan Shaozhe instinctively opened his mouth to speak, only to be silenced by a look from Mu En, forcing him to swallow his remaining words.

"Gentlemen, this matter is Shrek Academy's fault. I, this old man, guarantee with my own reputation and the glory of Shrek that we will certainly give you a satisfactory answer."

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Mu En finally spoke.
