Zhou Yi Was Scared Pissless

"What? You don't accept this?"

Seeing that Su Ling made no move, Zhou Yi's brows furrowed even deeper as she stepped toward him.

With every step she took, a Soul Ring rose beneath her feet. In the end, six Soul Rings circled around her at once: two yellow, two purple, and one black.

The aura of a Soul Emperor was displayed without restraint.

Even though the students in this classroom had witnessed it yesterday, the sight of those six Soul Rings still filled them with fear.

At that moment, Huo Yuhao, in the corner, clenched his fists. His eyes were bloodshot, and his breathing was heavy.

That damned old hag! He had thought she was a good teacher yesterday, but today she wanted to expel Brother Su Ling without even bothering to learn the truth!

And she had even insulted Brother Su Ling, calling him a scoundrel!

Could he not know what kind of person Brother Su Ling was?

Damn it, that old hag Zhou Yi had simply chosen death!!

With a swish, Huo Yuhao stood up, glaring murderously at Zhou Yi. Wang Dong'er rose to her feet at the same time.

"Brother Su Ling is absolutely not that kind of person!"

"Teacher, Su Ling really did go hunt for his third Soul Ring yesterday. I'm his roommate, and I can testify for him!"

Seeing the two speak up for him, Su Ling did not just stand by. He simply stopped concealing himself.

Level 35 Soul Power erupted!

Three Soul Rings—purple, purple, black—shone brilliantly!

The entire classroom fell into dead silence once again, followed by sharp gasps.

Cui Yajie and Xiao Xiao, sitting nearby, could best feel the authenticity of those three Soul Rings.

Staring at the pitch-black Soul Ring behind Su Ling, Xiao Xiao and Cui Yajie's minds went blank. Their beautiful eyes opened wide.

Wang Dong was stunned as well. She had originally been proud of her thousand-year second Soul Ring, fantasizing that one day she would surpass Su Ling.

But after witnessing Su Ling's Soul Ring configuration, her sense of superiority vanished completely, replaced by bitterness and resentment.

"This hateful bastard! He's obviously so strong, so why didn't he say so earlier?!"

If she had known Su Ling's Soul Ring configuration back then, she would not have dared to accept that bet even if she had been given ten times the courage!

In the corner, Huo Yuhao proudly lifted his head. His blue eyes brimmed with admiration. Seeing everyone's astonishment, he somehow felt a sense of shared glory.

See that? This was Brother Su Ling!

What a bunch of ignorant fools. So what if his third ring was ten thousand years old?

This was only the tip of the iceberg of Brother Su Ling's strength!

Zhou Yi, standing below the podium, was even more flustered. The Soul Power radiating from her body stalled, and her wrinkled old face was filled with shock.

"A ten-thousand-year third Soul Ring!? How is that possible!?"

Zhou Yi cried out. Forget a ten-thousand-year third Soul Ring—even every single one of Su Ling's Soul Ring configurations defied common sense!

"Teacher Zhou, you've seen it yourself. I wasn't lying." Su Ling withdrew his Soul Rings, his tone calm.

Now it was Zhou Yi's turn to feel awkward.

Feeling everyone's gazes focused on her, the face beneath Zhou Yi's aged exterior turned pale, then red.

But she would never admit fault. If she truly lowered her head, would not the image of a strict teacher she had painstakingly built over so many years collapse?

How would she retain any authority then?

"Since that's the case, forget the expulsion. But it remains a fact that you were absent yesterday and did not inform me in advance."

"Since you are a Soul Elder, put on an iron vest and run three hundred laps around Shrek Plaza. You are not allowed to use Soul Power during the run. You may not stop until you finish, or you will still be expelled!"

"Of course, I'm not punishing you. I'm tempering you. It's for your own good."

Zhou Yi adjusted her glasses and revealed a cold smile.

She had calculated all of this. She wanted to wear down Su Ling's sharp edge. So what if he was talented? Wasn't he still a student of her Class One?

She wanted Su Ling to obey her every word!

"Teacher Zhou, forgive my bluntness, but your running regimen is completely useless. As far as I know, the core of this training method lies in medicinal baths and dietary supplements. Weighted running merely exhausts the meridians, making them better able to absorb those nutrients."

Su Ling paused, his gaze sharp and his tone becoming forceful. "Yet after the students finish running, you ignore them. You merely have a teacher heal them, then call it a day. This leaves the meridians damaged by the oppressive running without the nourishment they should receive."

"In that case, not only will your training fail to strengthen their meridians, it will instead ruin their bodies and may even cripple them!"

As soon as his words fell, the students in the classroom exchanged looks. They stared at Zhou Yi and began whispering doubtfully.

What Student Su Ling said seemed to make sense. After running all day yesterday, not only had their limbs been aching and swollen, but even circulating their Soul Power felt somewhat weak.

"This is utter nonsense!"

"The running training method is one Shrek has passed down for ten thousand years. How dare a brat like you slander it here?"

Zhou Yi slammed her hand heavily onto the teacher's desk, looking as if she wanted to devour him alive.

"Heh, I never said the training method itself was bad. I said you're using it incorrectly. Besides, people have long said that Teacher Zhou enjoys expelling students on a whim. Now that I've seen it today, your reputation is well deserved."

Su Ling smiled, composed and calm, forming a sharp contrast with Zhou Yi's furious humiliation.

"That's right! Student Su Ling is right! Someone like her doesn't deserve to be a teacher! I protest!"

"That's right! My brother was only from the auxiliary department, yet he was expelled just because he ran a little slower yesterday! This is completely unfair!!"

"Protest! I'm reporting this to the academy's Academic Affairs Office!"

Watching the students, who had originally been so obedient, collectively protest under Su Ling's lead, Zhou Yi nearly exploded with rage.

"Shut up, all of you!!"

Zhou Yi's eyes widened in fury as her six Soul Rings appeared again. This time, the pressure belonging to a Soul Emperor descended upon all the students without reservation.

Naturally, Su Ling bore the greatest pressure.

The protesting students immediately fell silent, shrinking their necks and trembling. Su Ling's expression did not look good either.

Seeing this, Zhou Yi smiled smugly.

These lowly little brats actually dared question her. She had learned from the great Yu Xiaogang, from ten thousand years ago.

Yu Xiaogang had taught seven gods!

How could his teachings and theories possibly be wrong!

Su Ling was merely a Soul Elder. Did he really think outstanding talent meant he could challenge her?

He was only an Outer Court student. She, Zhou Yi, could do whatever she wanted to him. Even expelling him was just a matter of one sentence!

Disobedient students needed to be punished!

The corners of Zhou Yi's lips curled upward as she prepared to teach Su Ling a lesson.

Suddenly, an enraged roar rang out.

"Such nerve! Stop at once!!"

A disheveled old man instantly appeared in the classroom. With a raised hand, he dispersed Zhou Yi's pressure.

The students felt as though a heavy burden had been lifted.

Zhou Yi staggered backward, panic flashing through her eyes.

Why was Elder Xuan here??

"Teacher Zhou, what an impressive display of authority. If you gain another two layers of skin, will you dare lecture even me!!?"

"They are still children. Since you love using your power to bully others, I'll let you have a taste of it too!"

Xuan Zi glared coldly, his hands behind his back. The pressure of a Rank 98 powerhouse crashed solely onto Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi dropped to her knees on the spot. Her bones crackled as though they were being crushed, and her knees smashed two deep holes into the classroom floor.

Soon, a stench of urine spread from her body. A pool of dark yellow liquid flowed out beneath her.

Xuan Zi wrinkled his nose and moved away in disgust.

That damned Zhou Yi actually dared treat his Su boy like this! She had simply chosen death!

He could not even bear to raise his voice at Su Ling!

As a teacher, she had disregarded all teacherly virtue and attacked students. She was tarnishing Shrek's ten-thousand-year purity and glory!!
