"Uh, what?"
Xiao Wu looked bewildered.
"This shouldn't be right?"
"Back in Holy Soul Village, the first time I saw Su Chen write about sibling love, that Tang Yuehua, that Tang hammer, and Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang... I even asked Tang San about it. He said it was morally corrupt!"
"Also, Rongrong, can you just say Tang San's name and stop calling him 'Third Bro'? It feels weird to me."
Third Bro?
That's clearly my third uncle! I suspect Rongrong is being sarcastic towards me.
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing looked at each other with strange expressions.
"That doesn't make sense, right?"
"If Tang San really didn't agree, why would he persuade them to be spiritual spouses?"
Xiao Wu shook her head.
They couldn't possibly understand, at this point, the double standards of the pure and virtuous Tang Buddha.
"Hey, the Dean's coming."
Xiao Wu suddenly saw Flender in the distance, a flicker of panic in her eyes.
Ning Rongrong patted Xiao Wu's shoulder. "Don't worry. Zhu Zhuqing asked me to inquire last night. Dean Flender is only at level seventy-eight. He's not a Soul Douluo, so he can't see through your identity."
"That was close."
Xiao Wu patted the little bear.
At this time, the other three also walked over, standing in a row with Tang San, Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun, making a total of seven.
Flender looked at the seven of them and said, "This year is very good. We have four more little monsters."
"I am Flender, the Dean of Shrek Academy, and I welcome you all on behalf of the academy."
"Later, each of you will pay one hundred gold coins to Teacher Li, who is in charge of finances. Auxiliary-type Soul Masters are extremely vulnerable if they are not protected, so running away is an essential skill for you."
"Oscar, Ning Rongrong, you will not eat lunch if you don't finish twenty laps before lunch."
Oscar's face stiffened, and he had no choice but to comply.
Ning Rongrong turned her head and glanced at Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing before starting to run as well.
She ran for about half the distance.
Oscar liked Ning Rongrong more and more the more he looked at her. Unable to help himself, he took out his big sausage, wanting to help Ning Rongrong recover her stamina. As a result, he was punched over by Ning Rongrong.
"Tch!"
"You can run by yourself."
At this moment, Ning Rongrong was still a little devil. She didn't care about what Flender thought. She turned around and went to Soto City to go shopping.
Today would be her first lesson in the outside world, being criticized by everyone and being PUA'd by everyone, transforming from a proud little princess into a more approachable Ning Rongrong.
Of course.
Ning Rongrong's personality wasn't actually that bad.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was as rich as a nation and one of the top three sects. She had been pampered since childhood, with Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, two powerful protectors. Being a genuine little princess, a touch of princess syndrome was only natural.
The Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong also shook her head.
Yu Xiaogang, oh Yu Xiaogang, you and Liu Erlong really know how to play!
Spiritual spouses?
How could you even think of that?
However...
So, what will happen when Su Chen arrives in Soto City and confronts Yu Xiaogang?
I still remember what he wrote before, about fulfilling Yu Xiaogang's desires by letting him and Liu Erlong become a spiritual couple. What will he do?
And Nana!
Hu Liena, Bibi Dong knows her very well.
Although she's kind-hearted, she can also be ruthless when it comes to her own feelings! Having learned so much from the diary copies, even if Su Chen doesn't go too hard on Yu Xiaogang, she definitely won't let him off the hook!
During this day.
Ning Rongrong went down the same old road, got thoroughly roasted by Flender, and was then isolated.
Of course.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had already bonded with her, so Ning Rongrong wasn't truly isolated. Instead, Flender had taken them to Soto City, preparing for them to participate in the Great Soul Arena.
Flender was actually emboldened by Ning Fengzhi's instructions to treat her this way.
Thus, Ning Rongrong and Oscar were left behind at the academy.
Ning Rongrong didn't mind this at all. Her intention wasn't to be a good student here; she was waiting for Su Chen to arrive.
As for Flender's words about how the others at Shrek had better talent than her, Ning Rongrong didn't care at all.
Strong? Heh!
That's because you don't know Su Chen, and you don't know Hu Liena and Ye Lingling.
The princess's pride was still there, but the genius's pride had long been erased by Su Chen.
Night arrived.
Ning Rongrong sat at the entrance of Shrek Academy, thinking about Su Chen. Where is that guy now?
He should be in Soto City. Will he come straight to Shrek Academy?
Ugh! That scum Yu Xiaogang still hasn't arrived.
Oscar silently guarded from a distance, his lickspittle Martial Soul awakening.
Meanwhile.
Su Chen and his group had already entered the city. Soto City was certainly not as good as Heaven Dou City. He sat by the window, looking at the night scene of Soto City, which was still quite lively.
Just wondering if the plot of Shrek Academy had started yet, and how far it had progressed.
He couldn't be too late. He was still planning on abducting a cat girl maid.
A cat with such big… chest!
Thinking about it was exciting.
"Su Chen."
Hu Liena suddenly sat down, looking like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
"What is it?"
Su Chen looked at Hu Liena with some confusion, wondering what this little fox had been struggling with all day on the road.
Hu Liena held back for a moment, then finally said: "Actually, I have a secret I've been keeping from you. If you find out later, please don't blame me, okay?"
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, seeing this, both looked towards Hu Liena.
Were they about to reveal everything?
Su Chen smiled, teasing, "It's okay, I also have secrets I'm hiding from you."
"Keep your secrets safe, and don't let me discover them, or I'll have to punish you severely!"
Hu Liena nodded, her face serious, "Since you don't mind, then let me... no, let me be honest. Actually, I am a God..."
"Wait a moment!"
Before Hu Liena could finish, Su Chen suddenly called out, stopping her.
"Stop the carriage too."
The three of them looked at Su Chen with confusion, following his gaze.
In the distance, five figures stood out against the landscape: black, white, blue, pink, and red. Beside them sat a man with glasses who resembled an owl.
"Hmm?"
Hu Liena's eyebrows furrowed as she couldn't help but exclaim, "A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast!"
Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan were also startled, their faces filled with confusion as they looked toward Hu Liena.
Su Chen was also a little bewildered. He turned his head and asked Hu Liena, "Have you seen Xiao Wu?"
Hu Liena shook her head and began to explain.
"I was only half-lying to you earlier. Actually, I'm a God inheritor. My teacher helped me find the God. I've already passed several trials, and now I'm an eightieth-level Soul Douluo."
Hu Liena couldn't hide this matter; her strength would be revealed to Su Chen sooner or later.
"What did you say?"
Su Chen was utterly shocked.
Holy shit?
You, Hu Liena, are the biggest anomaly!
You're even stronger than me?
Hu Liena said seriously:
"You told me to keep my secrets."
"So, I am a God's inheritor. I've already passed several trials, and my strength is also very strong!"
Uh…
Su Chen looked at Hu Liena with a strange expression, thinking to himself: Hu Liena couldn't possibly have come up with the God's inheritance excuse. It seems Bibi Dong is involved here?
