Some time later, the day of the confrontation between Shrek and the Sun Moon Soul Engineer Academy arrived.
The location was once again the Mingdou Mountains. When Jing Hongchen saw where they were to meet, he nearly despaired as he hurried along. He could only hope that Shrek would behave reasonably and absolutely, absolutely not start a fight!
"Have you still not found either Jiang Bai or Huo Yuhao?"
Before setting out, Jing Hongchen asked Lin Jiayi, who stood beside him.

"Fight, fight, fight my big watermelon! I don't want to end up on the list!"
Whatever happened in the end, Jing Hongchen absolutely did not want to make a move, unless Shrek really was brain-dead enough to start a war.

"Hmph!"
As Jing Hongchen approached, a wave of soul power bore down on him like a mountain. The instant he sensed it, he knew who it belonged
