…
The group returned to Shrek Academy.
Dai Mubai, however, had sustained severe injuries from his own recklessness, making it impossible for him to walk normally.So Flandre took him to a spirit doctor in Soto City for treatment.
And Ma Hongjun?Well… he was basically just tagging along.Try getting hit by a Saiyan once — see how you feel.
The cool moonlight cast a serene glow over the academy village, draping the entire campus in a soft, silvery veil.
Zhu Zhuqing, accompanied by Wukong, returned to the academy first.The two of them pushed and nudged each other as they entered the dormitory.
No one mentioned the earlier events.What's the point? Could talking have prevented it? Sometimes, it's better not to bring up heartbreaking things at all.
"Zhuqing, you go back to your room first. I have something to take care of," Wukong said, letting her head in alone.
It wasn't exactly important — just something to reconcile with experiences from his previous life.
"Huh?" Zhu Zhuqing looked up at Wukong, eyes filled with reluctance.So late at night… what could he possibly need to do?
It was 11:00 PM. Going out now seemed odd to her.Even if it was for training, he could do that in his room — warm and quiet.
"You… where are you going? After what's happened these past two times, I don't even dare let you go out," Zhu Zhuqing said nervously.
Wukong now had a reputation for "encountering danger every time he steps outside."Being a traveler from another world certainly came with its perks — and constant risk.
"Don't worry. Just walking around the academy a bit…"
"You go back and sleep. I'll be back soon. Trust me, nothing will happen this time."
He ruffled her cat-ear hairstyle and then turned to leave, heading outside.
"Ahh~" Zhu Zhuqing sighed softly.She watched Wukong's retreating figure, words stuck in her throat, then closed the door and entered meditation.
Stepping out of the dorm, Wukong ran toward the outskirts of Shrek Academy.
Because of his incredible speed, he and Zhu Zhuqing had arrived first, leaving the others trailing behind.
"Hu hu hu~" Ning Rongrong trotted in small steps, finally reaching the academy gate.
After witnessing Wukong's battles and hearing Zamas's angry words, her unease only grew.
She wondered if this youth really could be trusted.Half-believing Zamas's warnings, Ning Rongrong hastily prepared to return to Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and inform her father.
Wukong's power was indeed abnormal.A thirty-plus level Soul Lord crushing a seventy-level Soul Saint?In the Douluo world, that was utterly unbelievable — like an elementary school kid defeating a muscular twenty-something adult in a one-sided fight.
No one would buy it.Not everyone could pick up a bit of martial arts like in the movies and defeat someone far above their rank. Physical disadvantages were permanent.
"I need to get out of here… this place is unbearable!"
Ning Rongrong peeked around, small steps careful, fearful of seeing Wukong.Her heels and skirt made running awkward.
She scanned back and noticed Oscar and the others weren't in sight.All she could think about was gathering her things and fleeing.
"Ahh!"In her haste, she stumbled over something and fell backward."Ouch! So painful!" Ning Rongrong sat on the ground, rubbing her sore backside.This fall could have split her in half.
"Who's standing here so late…"
Her words caught midway.Eyes wide, mouth slightly open, she realized what she'd bumped into.
"Hey hey hey!" Wukong crossed his arms, expression unreadable, observing Ning Rongrong.
"You bumped into me, okay?"
"Forget it, forget it. I'm generous enough not to hold it against you." Wukong flicked his hair, letting it slide since Ning Rongrong seemed so small and weak.
"You!"
She frowned, pointing at him, still slightly aggrieved.But recalling Zamas's words, she dared not argue further.
"I… I'm fine. I'll… go back now," she stammered.
The top priority was escaping Wukong and returning to pack her things.The fall and collision were irrelevant now.
"Eh~" Wukong stretched his hand horizontally, blocking her path.
He had come out specifically for Ning Rongrong.
"You… what do you want? I haven't offended you, have I?" Ning Rongrong tried to step back, legs trembling slightly.Was he going to kill her for discovering his secret?
"I finally got to enjoy this beautiful moonlight, happy and carefree, and you ruined it with that bump. What do you say about that?"
Wukong smirked, teasing someone younger than him.
"Huh?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes widened. She had spent so long pondering this place, and now he brought up something so trivial.
"Sorry about that. I won't say more. I'll leave now. Goodbye."
She tried to step forward, but Wukong blocked her again.
"What do you really want?" she asked, a hint of anger rising.
Wanting to escape but being constantly blocked could do that.
"Nothing… I was a bit wrong earlier today," Wukong admitted.
"I… apologize."
"Sorry…" he raised his head, casually apologizing to Ning Rongrong.
"What!" Ning Rongrong was shocked. Why would someone like him apologize?The sudden contrast left her speechless.
"Well, I went too far today, making you lose face in front of everyone," Wukong continued reluctantly.
"It… it's fine," she giggled.
A strong prodigy like Wukong would usually never bow his head.Yet here he was, apologizing.
Even Ning Rongrong admitted some fault for the day's events.But his apology? Totally unexpected.
Originally, someone like Wukong would never apologize unless forced.But today, it was necessary — partly to remove Ning Rongrong's psychological barriers and partly for long-term strategy.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could be valuable allies.Tang San wasn't a real threat yet; the real danger was Zamas — another world traveler, also a Saiyan, with a system, and far more threatening than Tang San.
And there were personal reasons from Wukong's past.As a child, Wukong had once been unfairly humiliated by a top student during grade school.Even after correcting papers honestly, the teacher sided with the other student and publicly slapped him, leaving Wukong a laughingstock for over a month.He knew all too well the humiliation of being publicly embarrassed, and he never wanted Ning Rongrong to feel that.
Otherwise, apologizing would never have been in his nature.
"Also today, you glared at Flandre in front of everyone. I agreed with your actions…" Wukong added, hands on hips, scolding her lightly.
Even a strong person must know when to pick battles.Had he not injured Dai Mubai today, Ning Rongrong might have ended up in a fight herself.
