The Young Lady Has Arrived-Everyone, Stand Aside

A week later, Chu Feng stood not far from the training grounds.

He watched Ning Rongrong deftly divide her Soul Power to buff the people around her, her feet never stopping as she swiftly wove around the stakes.

Seeing Ning Rongrong finish her training and stop, Chu Feng walked over, clapping.

Clap, clap, clap.

"Rongrong, pretty good."

As expected of Young Lady Rongrong, her natural talent was quite impressive.

She had managed to complete such difficult training in such a short time.

Ning Rongrong wore a tight training outfit that revealed her youthful figure.

Wiping the sweat off her face, she lifted her chin and snorted at Chu Feng, her eyes astonishingly bright.

"This stuff of yours was too easy. For a young lady like me, it wasn't difficult at all."

"I'm very strong, you know."

Chu Feng's gaze swept over the hair at Ning Rongrong's temples, now sticky with sweat, as he watched her proudly hold her head high, waiting for praise.

"Very good. You've exceeded my expectations."

Chu Feng slowly nodded, his tone sincere.

He truly hadn't expected Ning Rongrong to persevere all the way through.

Hearing this, Ning Rongrong could barely suppress the smile tugging at her lips.

"Hmph, that's what you get for underestimating me."

"I could handle it even if you raised the difficulty."

This girl's already getting carried away, Chu Feng thought.

"Then I'll put together another training plan for you."

"Boss Chu, have a heart. Give me a chance to rest."

Ning Rongrong's joy instantly turned to sorrow.

"I'll give you a day." With that, Chu Feng turned to check on everyone else's training progress.

Ning Rongrong jumped up, waving both hands.

"I get a break!"

After making a round, Chu Feng discovered that Ning Rongrong was actually the first to finish the initial training in her manual.

"Oh, come on. How are you guys falling behind even Rongrong?" Chu Feng called out irritably.

"Other than Little San, have any of you been training seriously these past few days?"

Chu Feng was starting to suspect this bunch had been slacking off right under his nose.

Tang San had to go to the Soul Guidance Research Institute in the afternoons, so his limited training time was understandable.

But Dai Mubai and the others hadn't finished their training either, which wasn't normal.

"Boss, our manuals are way harder than Rongrong's," Oscar complained.

"No way. You're clearly just no match for me." Ning Rongrong walked over with her hands on her hips and her lips crooked in a smirk.

(͡°͜ʖ͡°)

"You guys don't have what it takes."

Ning Rongrong raised a finger and wagged it in front of everyone.

She hadn't expected the day to come when this bunch would fall behind her.

"Mubai, aren't you supposed to be amazing? Why does your Xingyi Tiger Form Fist look like a kitten wriggling its waist?"

"Fatty, you were told to practice Tongbei Fist. How come you ended up looking like a monkey?"

"Oh my, isn't this our genius Little San? Why does your Bajiquan look so limp?"

Finally, Ning Rongrong turned to Oscar with a wicked smile.

"Little Ao, you were supposed to practice Wing Chun. Are you a chick pecking at rice over there?"

As for Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu, they were her besties, so she would leave them out of it.

"Ning Rongrong, you're pretty brave." Dai Mubai approached with his hands clasped, his fists cracking.

"I'm super brave."

(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و

None of them had what it took. She alone did.

She was Shrek Academy's number one genius.

As for Chu Feng, that guy was a monster.

"Then let me see Young Lady Ning's strength."

With that, Dai Mubai raised his fists and walked toward Ning Rongrong, step by step.

She actually dared to call his punches kitty punches.

He was the Evil Eyed White Tiger, not some little kitty.

"Nope. Refused." Ning Rongrong crossed her hands in front of her chest.

An Auxiliary System Soul Master like her fighting a Power Attack System Soul Master? Only if her brain had short-circuited.

"Let me see! Your strength."

Dai Mubai rolled his neck. Today, he would make sure Ning Rongrong learned that a tiger's backside was not to be touched.

But before he could act, Ning Rongrong darted aside and shot into Zhu Zhuqing's arms.

"Zhu Zhuqing, look at him. He's being mean to me."

As she spoke, Ning Rongrong even pretended to wipe away nonexistent tears.

She knew perfectly well where Dai Mubai's weak spot lay.

Although Zhu Zhuqing knew Ning Rongrong was acting spoiled, she still shot Dai Mubai a glare.

"You scared Rongrong."

Dai Mubai's hands stopped moving, and he forced a slightly stiff smile.

"Zhu Zhuqing, she mocked every single one of us."

His relationship with Zhu Zhuqing was improving now, and he didn't want it to deteriorate again.

Dai Mubai immediately shot Oscar a look.

"That's right, Zhu Zhuqing. Rongrong started it."

Oscar stepped forward, looking at Ning Rongrong with some displeasure as well.

They were both Auxiliary System Soul Masters. Why were they attacking each other?

Tang San scratched his head without saying anything.

These past few days, he had been busy researching Soul Guidance Technology and had indeed neglected his training.

He accepted Ning Rongrong's criticism.

"Why don't you just have a fight?"

Standing between the two sides, Chu Feng rubbed his chin.

During this stretch of training, almost everyone had been practicing on their own.

It was time for a Pokémon battle-a Shrek battle.

"Here's the thing. We should check the results of all this training."

"Let's hold a match within Shrek Academy," Chu Feng proposed.

At these words, Ning Rongrong and the others froze a little.

"A match against each other? Sounds good."

Dai Mubai waved his fists. Chu Feng's idea suited him perfectly.

He wanted to establish his position as the strongest person below Chu Feng.

"How would we fight? Little Ao and I are Auxiliary System." Ning Rongrong voiced her objection.

"Simple. You and Zhu Qing against Little Ao and Mubai. Two against two." Chu Feng shrugged.

One support and one damage dealer-a perfectly reasonable pairing.

"Let's not."

This time, Dai Mubai was the reluctant one.

He didn't want to fight Zhu Zhuqing. Losing would be embarrassing, and winning might lower her affection for him again.

There wasn't a single benefit.

"Sure, sure!" Hearing the proposed format, Ning Rongrong nodded repeatedly.

Pulling Zhu Zhuqing forward, she declared proudly, "Zhu Qing and me, invincible under heaven."

She was confident that her support abilities were far stronger than Oscar's.

She provided percentage-based stat boosts, while Oscar offered more utility-based support.

A ripple stirred in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, and her body trembled slightly. She looked eager to give it a try.

This was a chance to beat up Dai Mubai fair and square.

When they trained together normally, they only sparred lightly, which wasn't satisfying.

She would definitely beat Dai Mubai until he cried.

Seeing the two girls' enthusiasm, Dai Mubai and Oscar couldn't help taking a step back.

Oscar swallowed, his voice trembling slightly. "I'd like to refuse."

Judging by the two girls' imposing manner alone, they definitely wouldn't hold back if a real fight broke out.

In a two-on-two battle, a Food System Soul Master like him had no advantage.

Dai Mubai agreed with Oscar and was just about to voice another objection when Chu Feng said, "Whoever wins gets the first set of Battle Armor Little San makes."

At these words, everyone on the field caught their breath.

"Really?"
