"What a pity, you didn't catch it..."

Ye Xishui withdrew her oppressive aura, and Yu Xiaogang and the others regained control of their bodies. For a moment, it seemed as if everything that had just happened was merely an illusion.

But the bloodstains on the floor and the lingering smell of blood in the air reminded everyone that what had just happened was real.

After an unknown amount of time, the group gradually recovered from their shock and disbelief.

The crowd immediately dispersed; they dared not know too much about this potentially fatal matter.

Yu Xiaogang's face was filled with panic and fear. The first thing he did after catching his breath was to run away.

"Xiao San... you should take Hongjun home right now!"

Yu Xiaogang was, after all, a brother to Flender. Although he wanted to run away, he still remembered to take Flender's direct disciple with him.

Tang San struggled to his feet, his legs still weak, but having been tamed by Yu Xiaogang, he obeyed his master's words and, along with Oscar and Dai Mubai, carried Ma Hongjun on their backs.

The Shrek Academy members fled in a far more disheveled state than when they arrived; their pride and prestige as a so-called "Monster Academy" shattered in an instant.

Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Meng Chen with great hesitation, but still bit her lip and left with Yu Xiaogang and the others.

Although Shrek Academy has lost face, she is still a student of the Shrek Academy after all.

A child doesn't despise its mother for being ugly, and a dog doesn't despise its home for being poor.

As Yu Tianheng watched Yu Xiaogang walk away, he felt as if his childhood memories had been shattered.

The person in front of him was no longer his uncle, but a good-for-nothing who only knew how to talk big and talk theory, and would be scared out of his wits when faced with a real problem.

His uncle was dead; time had transformed him into a different person.

The objects are similar, but the people are different.

Yu Tianheng looked at the yellow stains left by Yu Xiaogang with a face full of disappointment.

Qin Ming looked completely bewildered.

His teacher died just like that?

To die so easily, and without any value.

The cause was even a trivial dispute between disciples that could have been easily resolved.

Qin Ming looked at Meng Chen, opened his mouth as if to say something, but couldn't utter a word.

Because the fault didn't lie with Meng Chen at all. Flender was bullying the weak, and Qin Ming wasn't stupid; he could tell that Flender wanted to kill Meng Chen.

As for Ye Xishui, Qin Ming is still young and doesn't want to take shortcuts, so the fault doesn't lie with Ye Xishui.

Qin Ming was filled with sorrow; after all, Flender was his teacher.

The hotel restaurant fell silent.

Ye Lingling looked at Meng Chen with a complicated expression.

She had known for a long time that Meng Chen had someone backing him, and Ye Cixin had also given a general account of what had happened in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but in a very vague way. So Ye Lingling never expected that the woman behind Meng Chen was so powerful.

Ye Lingling suddenly realized that her mother had probably made the right bet; no wonder she was so enthusiastic towards Meng Chen.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling shared similar thoughts.

No wonder Grandpa told me to spend more time with Meng Chen; it turns out Meng Chen not only has great talent, but also has a powerful protector.

Dugu Yan quickly contacted Ye Xishui about what had happened at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

It was obvious that although her grandfather was strong, he was not strong enough to make the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which had two Titled Douluo, give way.

Now, not only has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect conceded, but the outside world is also completely unaware of what happened to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect back then, which can only mean one thing.

That is, Meng Chen possessed the power to destroy the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, which is why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had to swallow all the bitter pills.

A power even stronger than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect...

Dugu Yan looked at Ye Xishui with eagerness and longing in her eyes.

Most of the remaining people were speculating about the relationship between Ye Xishui and Meng Chen.

They were hesitant to ask; after what had happened, everyone was somewhat afraid of Ye Xishui.

Only Qin Ming, after recovering, politely asked Meng Chen, "Meng Chen, who is this senior...?"

Meng Chen thought for a moment and then introduced, "This is my teacher, Ye Xishui."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ming bowed and said, "Senior Ye."

Yu Tianheng and the others also stepped forward to pay their respects.

After greeting Ye Xishui, Ye Lingling gave Meng Chen a deep look and asked with a hint of grievance, "Meng Chen, what is your relationship with that girl from the Shrek Academy just now?"

Yu Tianheng and the others were immediately stunned, staring at Ye Lingling in disbelief.

Even the most aloof and unattainable beauty can feel wronged?

Ye Lingling is usually quite aloof, and even Yu Tianheng and the others rarely see her show any emotion.

But everyone has emotions.

Moreover, Ye Lingling's woman's intuition told her that Meng Chen's conflict with those boys from the Shrek Academy was definitely due to jealousy; otherwise, why would that girl speak up for Meng Chen?

She had gone to such lengths to approach Meng Chen, and yet, the moment Meng Chen arrived in Suotuo City, he effortlessly brought her a rival. How could Ye Lingling not feel wronged?

Ye Lingling's words startled Meng Chen.

Why are you focusing on this, sister?

Although he found Ye Lingling's focus strange, Meng Chen still told the truth, "Oh, she's just my friend."

"It's all your fault! If you hadn't caused trouble outside and been so jealous, the dean wouldn't have died!"

Zhu Zhuqing, who was listed as a friend by Meng Chen, returned to the academy to find her classmates engaged in a fierce argument.

Although Ma Hongjun was dizzy, he was Soul Master after all and quickly regained consciousness. As soon as he regained consciousness, he had to face the painful reality of Flender's death.

This painful reality made him disregard his brotherhood with Dai Mubai, and he directly pointed at Dai Mubai and cursed him.

Dai Mubai was indignant, his eyes blazing with anger. "I acted because that kid tried to kidnap Zhu Zhuqing! What did I do wrong? Is it wrong to protect my companion?"

Dai Mubai's words were eloquent and seemingly flawless.

Especially since Zhu Zhuqing didn't want to get involved in their argument.

Therefore, Dai Mubai's high-sounding words left Ma Hongjun speechless with anger, unable to refute them.

Fortunately, there's still Tang San. He lost face today by defecating and urinating, and he also felt a sense of unease about Flender's death, so he now harbors a great deal of resentment towards Dai Mubai, who stirred up trouble.

He glared at Dai Mubai resentfully and said, "Then why did you go up and attack someone without even knowing anything? You didn't even know the other party's background or origins before rashly making a move, which brought in a Titled Douluo and caused the death of the Dean. Who else is to blame but you?"

"You!"

Dai Mubai Martial Soul Possession, his muscles bulging, and tiger claws shot out from his fingers as he glared intently at Tang San.

Oscar, seeing that a fight was about to break out, was saddened but had to step forward to comfort them, saying, "Dean Flender is dead, everyone is grieving, but please don't fight, we're all brothers."

Ma Hongjun was also watching intently from the side, Dai Mubai ultimately did not make a move.

Ning Rongrong sat quietly, watching Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Tang San criticize each other.

She almost burst out laughing.

It's good that old man Flender died, and Dai Mubai was even being pointed at and cursed by so many people, which made Ning Rongrong secretly happy.

This is truly karma.
