Chapter 262

"Flender? I've heard of you before. Back in the day, the Iron Triangle was a household name on the mainland..." Lu Cheng said with a smile.

"You flatter me, sir. My skills are nothing to boast about, haha." Flender scratched his head and smiled.

Just as Zhao Wuji, Yu Xiaogang, and the others breathed a sigh of relief, Lu Cheng abruptly changed the subject, sneering, "You know your name, Flender, is worthless? You dare ask me for face?"

"..."

The scene suddenly fell silent.

Lu Cheng stood there, but in the eyes of Flender and Zhao Wuji, he appeared as a mountain, gradually growing thicker and larger, while they were as insignificant as ants, trembling with fear before him.

"Dragon, Your Majesty the Dragon God, what are you doing...?"

"It's me who's been silent for ten years, yet even a mere brat dares to spout such nonsense. Flender, what a fine disciple you've trained!" Lu Cheng chuckled, his hands still behind his back. Flender and the others, however, instantly coughed up blood, forced to their knees by an invisible pressure.

Even the ground gradually cracked, causing many Shrek teachers' legs to sink into the mud.

"Pfft~" Flender coughed up blood, his face filled with terror.

This was the first time he had ever faced such a powerful opponent.

Even when he faced Clear Sky Douluo directly with Zhao Wuji a few days ago, he never felt such fear and pressure. He truly deserves to be called the Limit Douluo, a being standing at the pinnacle of this continent. Even just standing there is the epitome of invincibility.

"Your Majesty, my father is Yu Yuanzhen. Please, have mercy and spare our lives," Yu Xiaogang said hastily.

Everyone on the mainland knows that this Limit Douluo has intricate connections with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. When his father took his cousin to become his disciple, he didn't refuse as readily as others, clearly showing some consideration for her.

"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan doesn't have a piece of trash like you..."

Lu Cheng glanced indifferently at Yu Xiaogang.

She pressed her fingertip lightly against him. Speaking of which, this beast was a bit of a scoundrel. Back then, he bewitched Bibi Dong, causing Qian Xunji's Dao Heart to shatter and leading him to commit a series of outrageous acts.

Doesn't he know he's unworthy of Bibi Dong? Yet he pretends to be well-read and erudite, hovering around in front of Bibi Dong. His intentions are obvious...

When trouble struck, he abandoned Bibi Dong and ran away, then immediately got involved with his cousin.

That's absolutely disgusting.

Immediately, under the terrifying gravity, blood gushed from Yu Xiaogang's face, and he lay prostrate on the ground, making hoarse sounds, unable to utter a single word.

"You've gone too far!!!" Flender roared, glaring angrily at Lu Cheng.

"There's still capacity."

Lu Cheng chuckled, and the pressure emanating from him suddenly doubled, pinning him firmly to the ground.

In contrast, the Shrek Seven Devils were all stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

His face was filled with shock and despair.

This was their first time leaving the beginner village. They Soul Fighting Arena and experienced many life-and-death trials, but for the first time, they felt despair in the face of the Heavenly Abyss forged by such strength.

Even someone as powerful as Dean Flender, a renowned Soul Saint on the continent, was completely crushed by a single hand. Zhao Wuji, who had arrogantly proclaimed himself the Immovable Wisdom King, was now deathly pale.

It's important to understand that the opponent clearly wasn't using their full strength, perhaps not even a tenth of it.

"Gulp~" Ning Rongrong's throat bobbed, her beautiful eyes filled with astonishment as she looked at the handsome man who seemed like an immortal. No wonder her father had been so persistent in wanting her to become his disciple. Today, her doubts were finally resolved.

As for the Shrek Academy... to be honest, with her intelligent and quick-witted personality, she had long seen through the Grandmaster's hypocrisy and empty reputation. The only thing she was somewhat attached to was her hard-won friendship with Xiao Wu Zhu Zhuqing.

But if we're really going to stick together through thick and thin... let's forget about it.

Shrek isn't worth it.

It seemed like an eternity had passed, at least in the eyes of Flender and the others, before the terrifying pressure gradually receded like the tide, leaving only a scene of devastation.

The Grandmaster had already fainted, and a foul, pungent odor emanated from his crotch.

Flender and the others were also pale, their Soul Power completely depleted.

He was paralyzed on the ground, unable even to pull his legs out of the ground.

"Get lost." Lu Cheng glanced at Flender and the others, and said calmly, "The Heaven Dou Royal Academy doesn't need trash..."

"... Yes." Flender's throat bobbed, and he dared not hesitate any longer. He struggled to wave to Tang San, signaling them to pull them out, and then he walked out in a disheveled state, his shoulders slung over his shoulder.

Dai Mubai was no longer as arrogant as before, but he was still unconvinced. He gritted his teeth, lowered his head, and tried his best not to look at Lu Cheng's face.

It's unclear whether it was fear or anger at the insult to their teacher.

Ning Rongrong paused, realizing that if she left with the other Shrek Seven Monsters, she would be forever branded as a member of Shrek Academy in this person's eyes, and she had to find a way to change that.

He then whispered a few words to Xiao Wu, signaling her to go first.

After everyone from Shrek had left the room, she revealed a bright smile, bowed slightly, and said, "Ning Rongrong from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect greets His Majesty the Dragon God."

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Lu Cheng's tone softened as he slowly asked, "You're Ning Fengzhi's daughter?"

"Indeed, Your Majesty recognizes your father? You often mentioned to Rongrong before that Your Majesty's great achievements in resisting the Star Dou Great Forest. If you hadn't been stationed there alone back then, it's hard to say whether the human race could have survived." Ning Rongrong said sweetly.

"Hehe..." Lu Cheng chuckled. He had met Ning Fengzhi when he traveled across the continent. That guy was also a speculator who liked to place bets. Seeing that he had not yet risen to prominence but had strong talent, he secretly gave him a lot of benefits.

His expression softened somewhat, but he still frowned slightly. "Why are you hanging out with those guys?"

"It's normal that you juniors don't know the name Yu Xiaogang, but there's no way that guy Ning Fengzhi doesn't know him, and what about Flender, Zhao Wuji... I even doubt whether Shrek Academy has been officially certified and licensed by the Empire."

"It was because I was ignorant back then that I ran away from my family and stumbled into that place..." Ning Rongrong playfully stuck out her tongue, like an obedient junior listening to the scolding.
