At that moment, Tang San could no longer stay still after hearing someone insult his wife.
"Insult my teacher, and you've chosen your own death!"
[Tang San stepped on Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, quickly charging toward Xue Beng.]
Ye Fan immediately began editing.
If he didn't change it now, when would he?
Tang San lightly tapped his toes. Normally, this would give him the force to leap forward—but instead, his body seemed to be pulled down.
And the first thing to hit the ground was… his butt.
Tang San sat right down, his neck stretching at a strange angle so his head leaned forward toward his stomach.His arms wrapped tightly around his bent knees, forming—the shape of a ball.
Tang San rolled straight toward Xue Beng!
Xue Beng and his lackeys were startled out of their wits.Before they could run, they were knocked flying one after another like bowling pins clattering down.
Ye Fan had changed "kill" to "roll."So "charged to kill" became "rolled toward."
[Tang San stepped on Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and swiftly rolled toward Xue Beng.]
"Tang San, you're amazing!"
"What a skill!"
"When did you learn that move?"
"Just like a ball!"
Everyone burst into laughter.
"What a fine 'roll away'!"
"Tang San rolls well—he's got to roll all these eggs!"
The crowd laughed, shocked and amused at Tang San's newfound 'technique.'
Tang San, who had bowled Xue Beng and his gang into the air, straightened from his ball form.
He had no idea how he'd even done that.
Shameful—utterly shameful.
No…he might not have any face left to lose.
"I don't even know myself."
Xue Beng struggled to his feet, trembling with rage.
"You—you dare cause trouble in our Heaven Dou Imperial Academy? That's an insult to the Empire itself! You'll pay for this—you'll all pay!"
Flender snorted coldly."Nice speech. Too bad it's nonsense. Call your academy's teachers out here."
Just then, an aged but powerful voice echoed from nearby—
"What's going on here? Why such noise?"
From a shaded forest path on the hillside, a figure appeared swiftly.
He wore a silver outfit of fitted cloth.His age seemed close to Flender's,his face fair and round, eyebrows thick, eyes sharp,both hands clasped behind his back—a demeanor that gave him some air of mastery.
"Great, Teacher Sun is here!"
Xue Beng looked as if he'd found a lifeline."Teacher Sun! They came here to make trouble!"
"They even rolled us!"
"Please, you must stand up for us!"
Rolled you?
Teacher Sun froze at the wording.What kind of phrase was that?He'd never heard it before.
Still, he scolded Xue Beng once."Xue Beng, look at yourself—what a disgrace."
But, before outsiders, he didn't chastise his student too harshly.Instead, his gaze shifted toward the group from Shrek Academy.
Teachers and students were different—so when his eyes met Flender's, his heart stirred slightly.
He quickly stepped forward, bowing politely.
"I am Sun Buyu. May I ask what business brings you to our Heaven Dou Academy?"
He didn't mention anything about the "rolling" incident at all.Standing there, he carried an aura of calm and steadiness.
Seeing that he was being polite, Flender didn't press the matter either.
"We're here to find Qin Ming," Flender said lightly."Just now, some of your academy's students called us beggars—and told us to roll away.One of my students got angry and… rolled them instead."
"You're looking for Teacher Qin?" Sun Buyu's eyes brightened."Might you be from the Shrek Academy of the Barak Kingdom?"
Flender nodded. "That's right."
Sun Buyu's expression instantly became respectful."To have taught a genius like Teacher Qin—my admiration is endless."
"As for just now, on behalf of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, I offer our apology."
He still didn't really understand how the rolling had happened,but it was clear his side had taken the loss.
"Please, everyone, come this way."
He gestured invitingly,then shot a fierce glare at Xue Beng and his lackeys before leading the way.
The group from Shrek Academy followed Teacher Sun Buyu up the mountain path,heading toward the academy nestled within the hills.
Watching them gradually disappear,Xue Beng—who had been knocked down like a bowling pin—showed a glint of venom in his eyes.
"They dared roll me!?"
"Shrek Academy, huh? What a Shrek Academy."
"Still just here to scrounge off our academy for food."
"Hmph. You'll see."
"As long as I'm here, they won't stay."
A nearby student cautiously said,"Your Highness, perhaps that's not wise…"
Though it sounded like advice, his tone was more like he was adding fuel to the fire.
"What's unwise about it? The entire Empire belongs to my family."
"Come on, we're skipping class today."
"I'm going to demand justice. I won't let them off after this beating."
"If I don't drive them out, my anger won't rest."
Xue Beng turned and stalked off toward the academy gates.
—
Once they entered the mountain, the Shrek group began to appreciate the vastness of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
The climbing stone steps were carved from white jade,each etched with the image of a spirit beast—exquisitely crafted.
The setting sun cast soft red shadows through the trees onto the stairs,adding a sense of quiet and beauty.
The mountain was rich with trees; the air was fresh and moist,refreshing both body and mind.
As they walked, Sun Buyu explained,
"The main campus is halfway up the mountain.The simulation zones are spread above and below, some even by the lakeside."
Flender chatted idly,"Teacher Sun, how many students are at your academy now?"
"Over five hundred," Sun Buyu answered easily."Most are nobles from the Empire or its affiliated kingdoms.
We have over fifty teachers—strong in staff, though…"
He sighed and shook his head.
The group understood and didn't pry further.But Ye Fan knew well enough—
Heaven Dou Imperial Academy might be the Empire's top school,but it didn't have the strength to match that title.
Most of its noble students were pampered and weak.
Soon they reached the mountainside.
The main campus of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy was built entirely from single-story houses,giving the impression of a fortress.
The outer walls rose five meters high,a bright yellow hue shining under the sunset.
Even the roof tiles were glazed,reflecting dazzling light under the fading sky.
By now, dusk had settled.As the last streaks of sunset faded,the academy lights began to flicker on, one after another.
Inside, few students could be seen.
According to Sun Buyu, most were training in the simulation areas,so the main campus was quite empty.
He led the group from Shrek Academy to a guest room,asked them to wait a while,and hurried off to find Qin Ming.
