Yan Shaozhe Bullies the Young

Shrek City, East Gate.

Early this morning, Yan Shaozhe had stationed himself here, solely because he had received a message Mu En had sent ahead several days ago.

It said that while returning to the academy today, Mu En would also be bringing back a talented young prospect.

The value of a youth whom Mu En called a genius was self-evident!

The news had left Yan Shaozhe itching with anticipation. As everyone knew, he did not have many hobbies in life, but his greatest passion was nurturing geniuses.

That was precisely why, as the dean of Shrek Martial Soul Academy, he had come here early in the morning and waited impatiently, all so he could be the first to meet the little genius Mu En was bringing back!

Yet this wait had lasted from morning until dusk.

Just as Yan Shaozhe began to wonder whether Mu En had grown old and remembered the return date incorrectly, he suddenly heard a peculiar rumbling from afar, the sound drawing closer and closer.

Something was coming!

Curious, Yan Shaozhe immediately spread out his spiritual power and quickly saw the source of the sound.

A handsome young man was racing toward the East Gate on a fiery red soul tool motorcycle. Sitting behind him was a girl whose looks were no less stunning than his, though she was tightly hugging his waist.

This scene brimming with youthful energy left Yan Shaozhe somewhat displeased.

"Whose brat is this? At such a young age, he's already attracting girls left and right. What has the world come to? People just aren't what they used to be!"

After squatting by the East Gate all day without seeing Mu En or the so-called little genius, Yan Shaozhe was in quite a foul mood.

Naturally, he did not dare complain about Mu En or the little genius he had yet to meet, but he could vent some of his resentment on an irrelevant passerby.

Such as that kid riding the soul tool motorcycle, who was about to reach the East Gate.

"Kid, don't blame this old man for bullying the young later. Blame your own bad luck. You chose to run right into the barrel of my gun. If I don't vent this resentment in my heart, I won't be able to let it go!"

Just as he made up his mind, the youth on the soul tool motorcycle entered his field of vision. Judging by his state, he showed no intention of slowing down at all.

Based on his current speed, Yan Shaozhe roughly estimated that in half a minute at most, the soul tool motorcycle would zip past him and charge straight into Shrek City.

He had been worrying about what excuse he could use to pick a fight.

Now, he did not even need to nitpick. The excuse had delivered itself right to his door!

With a wicked smile in his heart, Yan Shaozhe watched as the youth drew near. Seeing that he still had no intention of slowing down, Yan Shaozhe no longer hesitated. He immediately released the enormous soul power within him, forcefully reducing the soul tool motorcycle's speed by more than ninety percent in an instant.

Yan Shaozhe could not help but be somewhat surprised when the motorcycle did not come to a complete stop.

After all, he was a level 95 Super Douluo. Though he had not attacked with his full strength just now, he had mobilized at least half of his soul power.

And that still could not force this soul tool motorcycle to stop?

After thinking for a moment, Yan Shaozhe decisively increased the soul power suppression, this time making the soul tool motorcycle unable to advance even an inch.

Seeing this, a satisfied smile immediately appeared at the corner of Yan Shaozhe's mouth. Though he felt thoroughly pleased inside, his face put on a stern expression.

"Whose child are you? Do you know Shrek City's rules? Driving at high speed through the city so recklessly—what if you hit a pedestrian?"

The one riding the soul tool motorcycle was naturally Xu Tianming.

Seeing that the motorcycle truly could not move forward another inch, Xu Tianming first comforted Meng Hongchen behind him. Then, under the powerful pressure of Yan Shaozhe's soul power, he looked with interest at the "righteously indignant" man before him.

"I really don't know Shrek City's rules. As for whether I might hit someone? Heh, I haven't even driven into the city yet, and you're already assuming I'll do something wrong. If you want to condemn someone, you'll never lack an excuse. What exactly do you want? If you have a purpose, say it directly. Stop beating around the bush—I'm in a hurry!"

Yan Shaozhe truly had not expected this brat to be so sharp-tongued!

But that was fine. The more unruly he was, the more satisfying it would be to teach him a lesson!

At that thought, Yan Shaozhe's expression became even sterner, his tone filled with anger.

"Oh? So young, yet you already have no respect for your elders. I'd say there's something seriously wrong with your way of thinking! Where do you live? Who are your parents? Given how serious this is, I must have a proper word with your family!"

In Yan Shaozhe's experience, using tactics such as telling a child's parents to pressure someone this young was often the most effective method.

But unexpectedly, after hearing him, the brat before him looked utterly disdainful, as though he had heard an extremely amusing joke.

"Talk to my parents about me? You think you're worthy? I haven't even asked who you are. What gives you the right to bully the young at the entrance to Shrek City in broad daylight? Aren't you afraid of being punished?"

Yan Shaozhe laughed at those words.

This brat had actually asked who he was!

At the thought of the terrified expression this brat would show once he revealed his identity, Yan Shaozhe could not stop the corners of his mouth from rising.

Showing off before a junior was indeed beneath his status.

But the feeling was simply too good!

The city guards of Shrek City had long noticed the unusual situation at the East Gate. However, after recognizing Yan Shaozhe, they immediately abandoned any thought of stepping forward to mediate.

Before they could leave, Yan Shaozhe, who had noticed them, immediately brightened.

How could revealing his identity himself possibly compare to having someone else reveal it for him?

And these city guards, who knew his identity, were just perfect for satisfying his urge to show off!

With that thought, he immediately used soul power to transmit his voice to the captain of the city guards.

Given Yan Shaozhe's status, he naturally would not directly ask them to help him show off, but his words were full of implication.

And the city guard captain, being a shrewd fellow, happened to understand the implication.

Several adults joining forces to bully a youth would damage their reputations if word got out. But with Yan Shaozhe, a major figure from Shrek Academy, backing them, they did not need to worry about the matter spreading.

Therefore, doing Yan Shaozhe a favor and currying favor with him was no big deal to these city guards.

After grasping the key point, the captain immediately stepped forward, pointed at Xu Tianming, and loudly rebuked him.

"What an arrogant brat! You dare offend a senior elder of Shrek Academy in the street! Do you know what crime you have committed?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Tianming could barely suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth.

They had finally taken the bait!
