Wang Dong: This Is Too Brutal!

Tang Wulin was stunned when he heard the hostility in the other person's voice.

What was wrong with Huo Yuhao?

"Fine, let's go outside and fight!" Wang Dong raised his head arrogantly, pointing outside, his face tinged with embarrassment and anger.

But when his gaze shifted to Tang Wulin, it froze instantly, and a trace of warmth appeared in his expression.

Thus, while Tang Wulin was completely bewildered, the two of them ran outside to fight!!!

Not long after the two left, a light knock sounded at the door.

Tang Wulin got up to open it. The words on the tip of his tongue stopped the instant he saw the person standing outside.

"Brother! I came to see you." Na'er spoke with a hint of shyness, gently brushing back her long silver hair.

"Where's your roommate?"

"She, she hasn't come yet! I'm scared." Na'er said softly.

Tang Wulin glanced outside, thought for a moment, and accepted Na'er's explanation.

In truth, Na'er simply wanted to spend a little more time with Tang Wulin. For some reason, being with him gave her the feeling of two things that had been separated for a long time finally being able to come back together again.

Tang Wulin did not bring Gu Yuena into the room. Instead, he led her outside, where he happened to see Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao already fighting.

He rubbed his forehead. After hesitating for a moment, he released Blue Silver Grass without leaving any trace of it, simply controlling the grass to separate the two.

"You two, stop it! If you want to fight, wait until enrollment is done and fight in the Soul Arena! Don't break the rules here." Tang Wulin's face held a hint of helplessness.

Wang Dong's attention was instantly drawn to Tang Wulin. Then she suddenly noticed the adorable Gu Yuena beside him, and her eyes immediately lit up.

She instinctively lifted her chin and struck a cool pose, though her voice seemed to carry a trace of shyness. "What a cute little sister. What's your name? I'm Wang Dong."

Huo Yuhao glared furiously at Wang Dong. "You spoiled young nobles are all the same—bullying men and tyrannizing women! Beasts!"

Tang Wulin coughed awkwardly twice from the side.

How should he put this?

If not for Tang Wutong, he should have been the young master of the Clear Sky Sect, which made him one of those spoiled young nobles too.

"Yuhao, some things shouldn't be said so absolutely. Besides, we'll all be classmates from now on, so it's best if we try to get along." Tang Wulin spoke in a comforting tone. "Sometimes, if you calm yourself down, you may find a new future. I believe that as a parent, you'd want your child to have a bright future."

Huo Yuhao automatically ignored the word "father" in "as a parent." Tears gradually welled up in his eyes. He lowered his head, looking somewhat dejected.

Na'er tugged on Tang Wulin's sleeve from the side. "Brother, can we go to the cafeteria and buy some late-night snacks?"

Tang Wulin rubbed his chin and looked at the sky, which had already darkened. "The school cafeteria should be closed by now. I'll take you outside to eat. There's a snack street outside the academy. Most of the food there is cheap and good, and quite a few students work part-time there."

Meanwhile, in the Star Dou Great Forest.

"Myriad Demon King! You actually gave a Life Ancient Tree to humans just like that!? Do you know how large an area a single Life Fruit Tree can protect from soul beasts dying of disease?" Di Tian's eyes burned with anger.

Myriad Demon King was silent for a long while before saying, "That was the Golden Dragon King! Our Lord approved it at the time!"

The moment Di Tian heard that, he fell silent.

The Golden Dragon King?!

After doubting his ears for a moment, Di Tian asked, "Are you sure it was the Golden Dragon King? If it really was him, then what exactly does our Lord want to do? Why not just devour him directly?"

Myriad Demon King's eyes rolled twice. Suddenly seeming to think of something, he said, "Perhaps there's something we don't know. After all, the two Lords have been separated for too long and may not be able to merge together, right? And the Golden Dragon King carries violent, tyrannical emotions. Wouldn't that affect our Lord? If our Lord directly devoured the Golden Dragon King and went berserk, who could stop her?"

"Then what should we do?!" Reminded by Myriad Demon King, Di Tian instantly thought of that possibility as well and grew anxious.

The snack street outside Shrek Academy.

Tang Wulin and Na'er quickly passed one small shop after another, while the food in their hands vanished just as quickly.

Only Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao remained behind them, having secretly followed along. The two stared wide-eyed at the people ahead as they swept through the entire snack street like a whirlwind!

"Th-That's too brutal!" Wang Dong exclaimed.

"That's too crazy!" Huo Yuhao muttered softly.

The two exchanged a glance, then instantly turned to look at each other with disgust.

After eating from one end of the street to the other, then back from the other end to the first, the two finally patted their stomachs in satisfaction. Yet their bellies looked as though they had not eaten anything at all.

When Wang Dong saw Tang Wulin approaching, she froze in place and muttered, "Y-You won't get starving in the middle of the night and chew me up, will you?"

Tang Wulin's mouth twitched twice. "Don't worry, I don't eat people!"

Then, with a gentle expression, he looked at Gu Yuena beside him. "Are you full? If you are, let's go back to the dormitory."

On the way back, the four of them looked at the mottled shadows of the trees in Shrek Academy and the teaching buildings beside them, which under the moonlight resembled monsters ready to devour people.

"Huo Yuhao, let me give you a piece of advice. No matter who you encounter in Shrek City, keep your emotions in check until you have enough value and strength." Tang Wulin's eyes held a hint of admonition. "Shrek Academy isn't a charity. It's a collection of interests. Sometimes, rules are nothing more than a scrap of waste paper."

Though he hated it too, before he had the strength to change it, he could only adapt for the time being. Then, when the day came that he could change it, he would ruthlessly cut away everything he disliked.

If he became the Pavilion Master of Shrek Academy, then it would be his. When that day came, he would have the final say!

If he were merely an ordinary student, he would hate Shrek Academy to death. But he was the heir, and he also enjoyed treatment on the level of an elder, with the status of an elder. That changed everything.

When they reached the dormitory building, Mu En appeared once again on the reclining chair beneath the tree.

"Hello, Grandpa," Huo Yuhao said respectfully.

Tang Wulin walked over with a smile. "Why have you come here again?"

Standing behind Tang Wulin, Gu Yuena said timidly, "Hello, Grandpa!"

Mu En smiled. "Ah, these old bones of mine just wanted to watch you young people and soak up some vitality. Besides, the moon is lovely tonight, so naturally I came to enjoy it."
