Perhaps because Zhu Zhuqing's gaze was so intense, Chen Qingling felt something and looked over.
Her pretty face couldn't help but flush slightly, "Zhuqing... why are you staring at me? Is there something on my face?"
The words pulled Zhu Zhuqing back to reality. She shook her head repeatedly, "No, it's just that I find it a little captivating when you're talking such big ideas, Qingling."
"Huh?!"
Chen Qingling looked puzzled, completely unable to understand.
What's so captivating about that?
How strange!
It wasn't just Zhuqing who found this strange; Xiao Wu and Rongrong felt the same way.
Chen Qingling couldn't figure it out at all.
She couldn't figure out what they were up to with her little mind.
Shrek Academy.
Dai Mubai, who was running to train his physique, suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, as if he had lost something very important.
His chest felt so tight that Dai Mubai directly half-squatted on the ground.
This scene scared Zhao Wuji, who rushed forward to help Dai Mubai up.
"Are you alright, Mubai? If you can't take it, go back and rest first. After all, your injuries haven't been healed for long."
"Don't push yourself too hard, or you might get a hidden illness."
Dai Mubai nodded. "Thank you for your concern, Teacher Zhao. I just feel a tightness in my chest and can't quite catch my breath."
"No need to say more, go rest up, go, go, go." Zhao Wuji waved his hand, granting Dai Mubai leave.
When it came to one's health, there was no room for carelessness.
If you incurred hidden injuries, you'd suffer later.
Watching Dai Mubai leave, hunched over, Zhao Wuji shook his head and sighed.
"Sigh!"
"Really!"
"It was just a competition, was it necessary to be so heavy-handed?"
As for why he didn't go looking for Chen Qingling's trouble, it wasn't that Zhao Wuji didn't want to, but he was struggling to find an excuse.
The news about Chen Qingling was only known to a portion of the people in Notting City and those from Spirit Hall, and it was kept under wraps.
After all, this concerned Spirit Hall's reputation. What would outsiders think if everyone knew?
Would they think Spirit Hall lacked strength, that they couldn't even afford to offend a single person?
Just then, Flender walked over and patted Zhao Wuji on the shoulder.
"Wuji..."
Zhao Wuji's eyelids twitched. "Principal... you... you're not planning to retaliate against her, are you?"
Flender snorted coldly. "Shrek Academy has always been protective of its own. Although this matter was Mubai's fault, her actions were too harsh!"
"How long has it been since Mubai was injured? We even hired a healing-type Soul Master to treat him, and it still hasn't completely healed!"
Wasting money like that, and still not getting a cure.
Flender, being the businessman he was, couldn't accept this. Therefore, he held a grudge against Chen Qingling, the one who caused all this! "It's your problem if you can't find an excuse. Can't you just make one up?"
Zhao Wuji's expression changed slightly. "Principal… isn't this a bit much? Targeting someone so much younger than us feels a bit like bullying."
Flender looked disdainful, clicking his tongue. "When did you, Wuji, become so kind? Where's your ruthlessness from before?"
"Isn't it because the Principal has been keeping me in line?"
"Stop flattering me."
Zhao Wuji coughed lightly. "If that's the case, then I'll go."
"Just teach her a lesson, let her know that sparring isn't about going all out."
In the eyes of Zhao Wuji and Flender, this trip was a sure thing, with no room for surprises.
But was that really the case?
Obviously not.
Inside the orchard.
Chen Qingling and Zhu Zhuqing didn't know how long they had been lying there until a voice from behind interrupted them.
"Hey, hey, hey, how long have you two been here? Aren't you going back? My orchard is about to close."
"Ah... sorry, boss, we forgot about the time," Chen Qingling said with a somewhat embarrassed look that stunned the boss.
After a while, the boss waved his hand. "It's okay, it's okay. Actually, many people who come to my orchard at first will forget the time like you do, and I need to tell them to leave."
"Zhuqing, let's go."
"Hmm."
The two girls, hand in hand, left the orchard and headed towards the Rose Hotel.
Reaching the hotel entrance, they were blocked by Zhao Wuji.
Seeing Zhao Wuji, who had blocked their path twice in a row, Chen Qingling's expression turned displeased.
"I already said! I won't join your Shrek Academy! Can't you understand?"
"How annoying!"
Chen Qingling was speechless. Why did everyone she meet seem so unreasonable, always trying to force others to do things they didn't want to?
It really wasn't much different from what her father had said; the outside world was full of dangerous people.
Zhao Wuji rubbed his hands together, producing cracking sounds.
"I didn't come here to invite you to join Shrek Academy."
"Then… you want to fight me?" Seeing the way Zhao Wuji was rubbing his hands, Chen Qingling understood. He wanted to fight her!
Shrek Academy was really annoying! And really disgusting! Not only did they teach a scumbag like Dai Mubai, but there was also Zhao Wuji, a teacher who kept changing his mind.
Truly, like teacher, like student! A den of snakes and rats! At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing, who was standing to the side, looked nervous and couldn't help but clutch Qingling's sleeve.
"Zhuqing, go to the side first, in case you get hurt. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine."
Zhao Wuji frowned, looking at the confident Chen Qingling, feeling very puzzled.
The difference in their soul power levels was vast! Didn't Chen Qingling feel afraid? Didn't she fear that he would take her life?
"Come on then, don't waste Zhuqing and my precious time!"
Chen Qingling was very annoyed; someone was always ruining their mood.
Today, she would make a name for herself in Soto City, and from then on, no one would dare to bother her again!
"Titan Bear, Martial Soul Avatar!"
At the same time, soul rings emerged beneath Zhao Wuji's feet.
Two yellow, two purple, and three black!
At this stage, Zhao Wuji was only a Level 78 Soul Saint.
"I'm just here to teach you a lesson, don't be so arrogant!"
"Second Soul Skill, Titan Bear Fist!"
Zhao Wuji's hands transformed into bear paws as he lunged towards Chen Qingling.
In the blink of an eye!
Chen Qingling, flying in the air, easily dodged Zhao Wuji's Titan Bear Fist.
"Can't catch me, can't catch me."
Those words successfully enraged Zhao Wuji. He had initially intended to spare Qingling some dignity.
Now, it seemed there was absolutely no need for that!
"Fifth Soul Skill, Gravity Crush!"
Suddenly, a heavy pressure weighed down on Chen Qingling, but she barely managed to hold it.
Zhao Wuji's pupils contracted sharply. This was his fifth soul skill, yet Chen Qingling actually held it off!
What was her strength?
What was his strength?
This was simply shocking!
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Zhao Wuji wouldn't have believed it even if he were killed.
"It's my turn!"
