Ning Rongrong's attitude toward Wukong did a complete 360-degree turnaround.
For a moment, Wukong couldn't quite accept it. All he did was give a little advice—was it really necessary to react like this?
"Wukong!" Ning Rongrong waved from a distance, smiling as she greeted him.
"Oh ⊙⊙! Haha, hey… what's up?" Wukong was caught off guard by her sudden shift in attitude.
He forced a smile, but noticed a chill in the air around him.
Why does it feel so cold? My clothes are supposed to keep me warm…
Wukong rubbed his nose and glanced sideways. Zhu Zhuqing was staring at him in a strangely intense way.
The look… was a little terrifying.
A pair of icy-cold small hands crept around Wukong's waist, almost twisting it in a circle.
"Speak. Where were you last night? Ning Rongrong's attitude couldn't have changed so fast without a reason," Zhu Zhuqing said, her tone cool but serious.
Ah…
Wukong shivered, then decided to just tell her everything. After all, it wasn't exactly secretive.
"I just reminded her about a few things. Look, this little girl has the backing of a whole sect. It'd be a shame if something happened to her." Wukong truly didn't want the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to disappear—not because the people there were particularly strong.
In terms of combat power, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect wasn't anything special in Wukong and Zamasu's eyes.
But their foundation was solid. If they were willing to cooperate, Wukong wouldn't mind dealing with someone like Ning Fengzhi.
It's all just a matter of who's more cunning, right?
Wukong was confident. In his previous life, to reach his position, he'd endured countless betrayals and schemes—and he still succeeded.
He had also spent years at the Spirit Hall. He had seen it all, and even what he hadn't seen, he understood.
A reader of the original story shouldn't be outdone by a native? Ridiculous!
"That's true…" Zhu Zhuqing responded lightly.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was indeed a remarkable sect. If she could recruit them, it would be a great opportunity.
Zhu Zhuqing had grown up in this environment and understood the importance of power. She didn't press Wukong further.
Ning Rongrong jogged over, stopping in front of Wukong, as if inviting him to admire her transformation.
"I thought it over carefully. What you said yesterday was right. I've made mistakes before, so now I want to say… I'm sorry >人<."
She clasped her hands behind her back, pouted slightly, and said with a hint of embarrassment.
"Ahem~" Wukong cleared his throat, adjusting his tone.
"It's good that you understand…" At times like this, one must play the master—cool and aloof.
It made him look impressive.
…
Ding ding ding~
The sound of bells rang out—Flandre's assembly bell. Arriving late would mean punishment.
Everyone began heading toward where Flandre stood.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were already by Flandre's side. Last night, Flandre had just treated them, but these two had refused to come back—scared, really.
The medical technology in this world wasn't great overall, but for soul masters, it was top-notch. Minor injuries and small ailments could be easily handled.
"Good morning, students. Today we will—" Flandre began, but then his eyes sharpened.
"1… 2… 3… 4…" He counted the students, then frowned.
"Oscar?"
"Since last night, Oscar has locked himself in his room and hasn't come out," Tang San explained.
He had accompanied Oscar back last night. Xiao Wu had been there, watching with a 'do whatever you want' expression—jealousy confirmed.
"This Oscar! Can't handle a little pressure. How will he survive as a soul master?" Flandre scolded in frustration.
Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and now Oscar—all three had glaring weaknesses: pride, desire, and extreme cowardice.
"Then… I'll go get him," Dai Mubai said, heading toward Oscar's dorm, keeping an eye on Wukong.
To Dai Mubai, Wukong was a living nightmare.
Wukong noticed his little moves and sneered. "That's all they got…"
Just as Dai Mubai was about to knock on Oscar's door, Oscar came running joyfully from the other side of the academy, pumped up like he'd had too much energy.
Seeing Oscar's beaming face, Flandre's temper flared. He slapped Oscar on the head.
"Little brat~ late and still acting like this? Do you want to go for punishment laps around the academy?"
Oscar was acting unusually bold—definitely out of character.
"Dean… please let me explain!" Oscar gasped for air.
After calming down, he spoke to Flandre, still excited:
"Dean, I've been cultivating all night."
"And I've broken through to Level 30!" Oscar said confidently.
"What!" Everyone gasped.
Except Wukong—just leveling up, what's the big deal?
But Oscar's talent was truly exceptional. Without Tang San's help, if anyone at Shrek Academy could become a god, it would be Oscar.
Ning Rongrong's eyes widened in disbelief. Wukong was right—she still had to work harder.
She glanced at Wukong's back. At such a young age, he had already reached this level. Maybe he could guide her too?
Determined to grow stronger, Ning Rongrong resolved to ask Wukong for cultivation advice.
Flandre's stern expression melted into a broad smile.
Another prodigy at Shrek Academy was a boon for him. Plus, a Level 30 food-type soul master at such a young age? Truly remarkable.
A Level 30 food-type soul master could handle most post-battle supplies in an army or family, with surplus to spare.
High-level food soul masters were always in demand.
"Just lucky, that's all," Oscar said humbly, scratching his head.
Without Dai Mubai and Ning Rongrong's argument, Oscar hadn't fully realized Ning Rongrong's nature. Why had he broken through?
He owed it to Zamasu.
The aura from Zamasu's ki blast had stimulated Oscar's soul power, causing it to surge and allowing him to break through to Level 30.
In the original story, Oscar's breakthrough came from heartbreak.
Sometimes, emotions really can kill.
