Although no matter how Gu Yue looked at Wang Dong'er, she found her displeasing, at this moment, she still sympathized somewhat.
Because she was a girl too.
A period was the most uncomfortable time for them.
And making them overdraw a huge amount of stamina to run laps at such an awful time—how was that any different from throwing an ant into magma?
Half joking, Zhuang Minghui said, "So, will our great King Gu Yue lend a hand to this weak young lady?"
Gu Yue shot Zhuang Minghui an annoyed glare and said, "Why do your names for me feel like they're getting stranger and stranger? One moment it's Miss Gu, the next it's King Gu Yue."
Zhuang Minghui chuckled. "Aiya, don't affectionate nicknames better prove the friendly relationship between roommates, Miss Gu?"
Seeing Zhuang Minghui's somewhat shameless reaction, the corner of Gu Yue's lips twitched slightly, and she gave a soft snort. "Smooth talker."
Then her gaze turned toward the two teachers confronting each other up ahead, as well as Wang Dong'er on the track, whose consciousness had grown somewhat hazy, and she said, "Let's wait and see first. If Teacher Mu can't resolve it, it won't be too late for me to step in."
Mu Jin stared at Zhou Yi, her red lips parting slightly. "You really don't learn your lesson at all, do you? You were jointly reported by the senior students, and the teaching director gave you leniency because of your status, demoting you to first year to teach freshmen."
"His intention was for you to turn over a new leaf and teach normally. But in the end? You're still stubborn to the bone."
"It really proves that saying—dogs can't stop eating shit!"
Every word she uttered struck straight at the heart, hitting Zhou Yi where it hurt.
"You!" Zhou Yi gnashed her teeth, but could not say a single word.
This experience could be called the darkest mark in her entire life.
Shrek had a history of ten thousand years since its founding.
In those ten thousand years, she was the first teacher to be jointly reported by an entire class of students and demoted to teach freshmen.
But she refused to accept it!
She did not think she had done anything wrong.
In Zhou Yi's view, the pressure she had put on those students had still been far from enough, not enough to make them submit to her completely and obey every word she said.
So for this year's class, she would start over from scratch, using her Soul Emperor cultivation to oppress these freshmen, the Class One with the weakest soul power cultivation.
Only then would there be no trash who dared to resist her!
Mu Jin ignored Zhou Yi's fury and called out to Wang Dong'er on the track, "Enough. Girl over there, stop running."
Mu Jin's voice was gentle, yet it carried an unquestionable fluctuation of soul power, clearly entering Wang Dong'er's ears.
Wang Dong'er stumbled, and a trace of confusion flashed across her pale face.
She subconsciously stopped, her body swaying, almost about to collapse onto the track on the spot. Just as she was about to fall, a slender emerald-green figure much shorter than Wang Dong'er reached out and steadily helped her up.
"Xiao Xiao, thank you..." Wang Dong'er looked wearily at the girl supporting her.
Xiao Xiao was also panting heavily at this point, the emerald-green strands of hair on her forehead soaked with sweat and sticking to her flushed cheeks.
While struggling to support Wang Dong'er, she comforted her breathlessly, "It's okay, Dong'er. Roommates are supposed to help each other."
With Xiao Xiao's support, the two of them staggered over to the grass at the edge of the field.
The moment her feet stepped onto the grass, Wang Dong'er could no longer hold on. Without the slightest concern for her image, she collapsed limply, her whole body lying straight on the lawn as if she had been possessed by some red wolf, with only her chest heaving violently.
Xiao Xiao also sank to one knee beside her, utterly drained, gulping down fresh air.
"Mu Jin, what right do you have to let her rest!" Zhou Yi finally lost control, her hoarse voice instantly turning shrill. "Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, I'll give you one more chance. Keep running, and I can let bygones be bygones."
"If you insist on resting, then go home and wait for your expulsion notice."
"There is no room for disobedient students in my class."
Faced with Zhou Yi's hysterical threat, Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao, collapsed on the grass, instantly turned extremely ugly in complexion, but right now, they did not even have the strength to stand up.
Ever since coming to Shrek, Wang Dong'er had felt her strength being drawn away bit by bit.
She did not know what was going on either. It was completely inexplicable.
Seeing Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao go to rest, the other Class One students who had been watching also followed their example.
To sum it up in two words: strike!
But only one person was different—Huo Yuhao.
Only Huo Yuhao was still running with all his might.
There was only one thought in his mind: if he did not run, then he would be expelled.
Earlier, Mu Jin's words had been enough to scare Huo Yuhao silly. An entire class of students could not deal with one Zhou Yi, so if he did not listen to Zhou Yi, wouldn't an ordinary person like him be targeted to death by Zhou Yi in the academy?
Now Brother Tianmeng had fallen into slumber again, so he could only play it safe.
"Stubborn fools, what a bunch of trash!"
Seeing that the entire class had actually gone on strike, leaving only Huo Yuhao, the one with the worst aptitude, still running, Zhou Yi's reason was completely burned to ash by fury.
She felt that her authority had been challenged like never before.
"Mu Jin, you're courting death!" If not for Mu Jin's appearance, how could she, Zhou Yi, possibly have been abandoned by the entire class except for the weakest Huo Yuhao?
If not for her, her authority in Class One would have long since been enough to subdue them.
From the moment they had first met, she and Mu Jin had always been sworn enemies, the kind who had to compete over everything.
She had endured all of that, but endurance was not a long-term solution.
Later, when they became teachers at Shrek, Mu Jin's targeting became even more obvious.
All the way until now!
Two yellow, two purple, and two black soul rings instantly rose from beneath her feet.
Along with a shrill, savage dragon roar, violent crimson flames exploded with a boom. A dense layer of dark red dragon scales surfaced over her skin, and the scorching waves of heat warped the air.
Red Dragon.
The martial soul Zhou Yi possessed was the same as Wu Feng's—Red Dragon.
With a wave of Zhou Yi's right hand, a blazing wave of fire formed from scorching Red Dragon flames surged toward Mu Jin.
"Zhou Yi, are you insane?!" Mu Jin's expression changed drastically. Six soul rings also lit up around her, and a pale pink screen of light instantly spread open before her, meeting the searing wave of fire head-on.
Still, this was just as well. She could finally avenge how Zhou Yi had expelled her younger brother over a series of trivial little things in class, like drinking water and raising his head!
BOOM!!!
The wave of fire burst apart against Mu Jin's defense, turning into a sky full of rampaging meteor-like fire rain. Carrying a scorching shockwave, it swept overwhelmingly toward the completely unprepared students at the side.
"Not good!" Mu Jin's face went pale as she looked at those students.
At that critical moment, two figures moved.
Gu Yue's cool voice sounded beside Zhuang Minghui's ear. "I'll go kill Zhou Yi. You save them."
The corners of Zhuang Minghui's mouth lifted slightly. "Got it, Great King Gu."
Gu Yue glanced at him from the corner of her eye and, somewhat helplessly, left behind one sentence. "Just call me Miss Gu or Gu Yue."
