Zhu Zhuqing was the same, but she had seen the other party's strength. To be able to deal with a Soul Grandmaster so effortlessly, even without Martial Soul Possession, was something a Soul Elder could not achieve.
Thinking of this, she glanced at Dai Mubai at the very front. To be honest, the young man in front of her also looked to be of a similar age to Dai Mubai, but his strength was vastly superior.
If only I were as strong as him...
Aside from the two of them, there was also Oscar. However, as a Food-system Soul Spirit Master, after feeding Ma Hongjun a big sausage, he took him toward the rear to recover his condition.
Right at this moment, the spoiled Xiao Wu immediately lost her temper. Seeing someone dare to stand up for Canghui Academy, she could no longer hold back her anger.
"Brother, why are you wasting words with him? He's just bullying you because you're nice. I'm going to sort him out!"
As soon as Xiao Wu finished speaking, she rushed forward to beat up Xiao Wujiu. "Big Sis Xiao Wu is going to fight you!"
"Xiao Wu!"
Before she could rush out, Tang San pulled her back a step first, and then shook his head gently under her gaze.
"Hehe, with that kind of attitude, you still have the nerve to say that being afraid of trouble is for mediocrities? You don't even dare to fight. I think you might as well drop the insult to mediocrities and just call yourselves fools instead. You have some talent, but you don't spend it on the right path. If you aren't fools, what are you?"
"Kid, you want to stand up for them? Then do you dare to have a match?"
Dai Mubai's temper was naturally arrogant. Now that someone was riding roughshod over him, could he endure it?
"Fine, a match it is. You think I'm scared of you?"
"However, we need to wait a moment."
"Wait for what? You aren't scared, are you?"
Xiao Wu immediately lost her composure, shouting and taunting right to his face.
However, Xiao Wujiu completely ignored her words. He simply disregarded her, finished the last bite of his food, and drained the last drop of wine.
Right at that moment, Ye Zhiqiu walked over.
"Little brother, I'm very grateful for today's events. I am Ye Zhiqiu, the director of external affairs for Canghui Academy. Leave this matter to me to handle. You don't need to stand up for us."
With that, he wanted to go settle accounts with those bastards from Shrek Academy, but a powerful hand grabbed his wrist.
Xiao Wujiu stood up and placed a few gold coins on the table—these were the Gold Soul Coins he had specially prepared for Douluo Continent.
"Boss, this is for the meal, and I'll cover the compensation for those tables and chairs first," Xiao Wujiu greeted the boss nearby. "As for this compensation, I'll get it back."
"You lot, all come together in a moment. But the boss runs a small business, so let's go fight outside."
"You say change places and we change places? Believe it or not, I..."
Ma Hongjun, who had just recovered his breath, wanted to say something more when a pair of icy gazes locked onto him, making his skin sting with pain. Sensing that the look came from Xiao Wujiu, he was instantly so frightened that he didn't dare speak.
After scaring Ma Hongjun limp with a single glance, Xiao Wujiu then turned to Ye Zhiqiu, who had been unable to shake off his hand for quite some time, and said, "Director Ye, is it? Leave this matter to me. A fight among young people sounds better when word gets out, doesn't it?"
After saying this, he patted the man on the shoulder and led Shrek and the others outside. Before leaving, he also glanced at a room on the second floor, a playful smile hanging at the corner of his mouth.
Yet just as he finished speaking, Xiao Wujiu agreed and immediately turned to walk outside.
Ye Zhiqiu wanted to call the other party back, but remembering the strength with which he had been completely unable to break free just moments ago, he checked his movement.
"Let's go, keep up. If we find the situation isn't right, we'll step in and help this little brother."
"Understood, Teacher."
The people from Canghui Academy responded one after another, every single one of them wearing an indignant expression. The people from Shrek Academy had simply been too oppressive just now, and naturally, they didn't want the person who had extended a helping hand to suffer bullying just because he was outnumbered!
After they all left, people inside the restaurant quickly followed. Such Soul Master battles cost money to watch at the Great Soul Arena, let alone a one-against-seven match of a kind they had never seen in daily life!
"Hey, do you think that young brother can beat those people from Shrek Academy?"
"Hard to say. You saw it too—those people from Shrek Academy are all so young, yet their strength is at least that of two-ring Soul Grandmasters, and they even have the optimal twin yellow spirit ring configuration."
"Yeah, I think that young brother was still biting off more than he could chew, even though I really hope he wins."
The surrounding people discussed it in low voices, but most of them were not very optimistic about Xiao Wujiu. After all, the talent of Shrek and the others was simply too incredible; every single one of them was already a Soul Grandmaster in their teens, and moreover, century-old first rings were not a common sight on the continent.
With various conditions stacking together, everyone was pessimistic about Xiao Wujiu.
Yet the scenario of a righteous person stepping forward to help would forever represent justice, and there were no lack of people hoping he would win.
Outside the small building, Xiao Wujiu and Shrek's group stood facing each other, surrounded by a crowd of onlookers. The members of Canghui Academy stood at the very inner layer, getting ready to make a move at any moment.
"Kid, since you're so arrogant, you'll have to pay the price for your words!"
"Brothers, summon your martial souls!"
Dai Mubai came to the outside, and with his teammates backing him up, his confidence surged. Playing the role of the ringleader, he pointed at Xiao Wujiu and lectured him.
With that, he took the lead in releasing his martial soul: White Tiger, Possession!
Behind him, Tang San and the others all responded in kind, though Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment, a lingering sense of unease in her heart. Even so, she still released her martial soul, Hell Spirit Cat, and two century-old spirit rings appeared on her body.
As for Ning Rongrong, although she was interested in Xiao Wujiu, she wanted even more to test just what capability the other party actually had. Therefore, loving the chaos and hoping things would get lively, she also summoned her martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Those with some discernment turned pale upon seeing Ning Rongrong's martial soul, and they all looked at Xiao Wujiu with pitying gazes.
"The continent's number one support martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda! What on earth is the background of this Shrek, that they actually have students from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"
"Even a Soul Grandmaster-tier Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda possesses terrifying dominance in combat, let alone in a one-versus-seven fight. This little brother is done for."
Ning Rongrong's martial soul truly startled the surrounding onlookers, and even Ye Zhiqiu from Canghui Academy hesitated.
They could not afford to offend the direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!
"Teacher, are we... still going to help later?"
Hearing the hesitant tone of the student behind him, a surge of emotion inexplicably rose in his heart.
He was also an ordinary Soul Master who had walked step by step to where he was, and he held no favorable feelings for these large-faction Soul Masters who had been born with a silver spoon in their mouths.
Ye Zhiqiu's fists clenched and relaxed, relaxed and clenched, until finally, hardening his heart, a resolute flash crossed his eyes, and a single word squeezed out through his teeth.
"Help!"
