Shrek Courted Death

Once everyone had finished the handover, they headed toward Suotuo City's gates.

At the gates, a white-haired young man had actually been waiting for quite some time.

"Teacher, I feel like my cultivation is almost at rank thirty too. I might break through in the next couple of days. Can I go with you?"

Oscar, who had shaved off his beard and tidied himself up, rubbed his hands as he asked.

"Flender, give me an explanation."

Liu Erlong ignored Oscar and questioned Flender in an icy voice instead.

She had already said that the Inner Court would be divided into two classes from now on, and neither class would interfere with the other. What was Flender trying to pull now?!

"Ahem, Little Ao isn't like those other two kids. Besides, he has a point. He might reach rank thirty on the way, and that would save us another trip."

Flender spoke sheepishly, an imperceptible gleam flashing through his eyes.

After all, the students in Class One were simply too enviable. Even if Ning Jiao was involved with two of them, there were still two single girls!

He knew perfectly well that Dai, Ma, and Ao were all jackals from the same hill, but at least Oscar's tastes were a little milder.

Perhaps he could use this opportunity to find himself a girlfriend.

Then he would truly soar straight to the pinnacle of life!

Flender discreetly gave Oscar a look.

"That's right, Teacher Erlong. My Soul Power has been stuck at the peak of rank twenty-nine for days. I could break through at any moment!"

"Since everyone's heading into the wilderness to train and hunt for Soul Rings, tagging along would kill two birds with one stone. Sorry for the trouble, but this would save the teachers a separate trip later!"

Oscar also stole a glance toward Ning Rongrong and couldn't help indulging in fantasies.

"Let your eyes wander again, and I'll gouge them out!"

Ning Jiao's gaze turned cold. He stepped in front of Ning Rongrong and looked straight up at Liu Erlong.

"Teacher Erlong, we only agreed on these rules yesterday."

Ning Jiao kept his voice as even as possible.

"Please get one thing straight. We joined Shrek Academy on the condition that you agreed to our demands."

"Not so you could trick us into joining and then break your promises whenever you pleased."

"Teacher Erlong, when I give you face, you're a teacher. When I don't, you're nothing but a fart."

"Do you think I'm easy to bully just because I've been reasonable?"

With a turn of his wrist, Ning Jiao took out the great seal and aimed it at Oscar's forehead.

Liu Erlong said nothing, her expression shifting uncertainly. Though she had been berated, she felt Ning Jiao was right.

She had indeed negotiated those terms yesterday, and Flender had indeed broken the agreement today.

"Now, now, young fellow, you can't put it that way."

"Yes, we agreed that you wouldn't get entangled with Class Two, but the road is right here. If you happen to run into each other, there's nothing we can do."

"Besides, this boy has a very good point. It's just a coincidence..."

Flender began trying to smooth things over.

Ning Rongrong pressed her lips together and glanced at Ning Jiao in amusement. She had never imagined he would get so angry just because Oscar had looked at her.

This was the first time she had ever seen Ning Jiao curse someone out like this.

"If Ning Jiao leaves, I leave too."

Zhu Zhuqing spoke calmly and stepped up beside Ning Jiao.

Ning Rongrong's pretty face stiffened. Damn it! She had been so busy feeling happy that this little bitch Zhu Zhuqing had stolen her home base!

"Teacher Erlong, we want an explanation."

Ning Rongrong also darkened her expression and stood behind Ning Jiao. Anyone who didn't know the truth would have thought she was unhappy with Liu Erlong.

Tang Lan looked at Ning Jiao, conflicted. This really was giving her a headache.

She couldn't help glaring at Flender and Oscar. If not for these two bastards, how could things have reached this point?

Honestly, as far as she was concerned, these two had already found their path to death!

"Flender, get lost!"

"Take your disciple with you!"

Liu Erlong's face was dark as she shouted harshly.

She was regretting merging her Blue Tyrant Academy into Shrek Academy more and more.

If even Flender treated the academy's rules as mere decorations, what made him think he could teach students properly?!

"If this happens again, I'll take my Blue Tyrant Academy students and split off again!"

Liu Erlong clenched her teeth, her full chest heaving.

She wanted nothing more than to slap Flender across the face!

"Erlong..."

Flender suddenly spoke meekly, adjusting his glasses in embarrassment.

"Piss off! Don't show your face in front of me!"

"Send Zhao Wuji over!"

Liu Erlong's eyes were icy. She had even summoned her fire dragon martial soul behind her.

"All right, all right..."

Flender hunched over, grabbed Oscar awkwardly, and quickly turned to leave.

"That's it, Teacher Erlong? You've already bullied us twice."

Xiao Wu folded her arms unhappily. They were let off lightly every time. They would never change!

"I'm sorry. This was my fault. As I've already said, if it happens again, I'll take you and my students away from Shrek Academy."

"I promise you."

Liu Erlong drew a deep breath, her face full of bitterness.

"There had better not be a next time."

Ning Jiao spoke flatly.

"Of course there won't be a next time."

Snap!

Inside the Star Dou Great Forest, Lin Mo snapped his fingers lightly, summoning an Auspicious Cloud.

"Ning Jiao can't beat Flender. Get on."

With a dark expression, Lin Mo was the first to sit atop the cloud.

To put it bluntly, even the Divine Realm wouldn't dare humiliate him twice in a row. Had Shrek eaten so many red beans of longing that they were longing for death?!

"If they dare bully my big sister, I'll have to smack my lips and eat them clean."

Zhu Zhubao licked his lips. As it happened, there was still a portion of white tiger bloodline he hadn't eaten.

The two rode the Auspicious Cloud and swiftly vanished~

Flying from Sea God Island to the Star Dou Great Forest in a single day under a Soul Ancestor's control-this was what the speed-specialized Super Divine Artifact, the Auspicious Cloud, could do!

Left alone, Bai Yu plopped onto the ground and gazed at the drifting clouds overhead.

"Folks, do you think Little Lan will still recognize me as her teacher after my cosmetic surgery?"

"Do you think Erlong will still acknowledge me as her runaway husband?"

"Do you think Flender... never mind. Flender's pretty much dead. He probably won't be able to acknowledge his old buddy anymore."

Bai Yu shrugged, opened his dry rations, and began eating.

"There absolutely won't be a next time."

Liu Erlong let out a long sigh, and silence instantly fell.

After a long silence, a burly man ran over from afar and greeted Liu Erlong. They all headed out of the city together, also renting three carriages.

Hmm?

Inside a carriage, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly widened her eyes and lifted the window curtain to look at the sky outside.

Was I imagining things?

She wondered suspiciously. She kept feeling as though she had sensed her younger brother's presence just now.

"What's wrong?"

Ning Rongrong asked casually while sizing up Zhu Zhuqing's impressive figure.

She had previously thought that Ning Jiao harbored improper intentions toward Zhu Zhuqing, but that Zhu Zhuqing saw Ning Jiao as nothing more than an ordinary friend, so she had never paid it any mind.

But Zhu Zhuqing had truly delivered her a stinging slap in the face earlier!

"Nothing..."

Something stirred in Zhu Zhuqing's mind, and she shook her head.

If what she had felt just now wasn't her imagination, then why would her younger brother appear after she had been bullied?

Zhu Zhuqing pondered this and concealed her younger brother's presence.
