Yellow, yellow, purple, black!
That fourth spirit ring wasn't a mere thousand-year ring—It was ten thousand years!
A ten-thousand-year fourth ring!
For a moment, everyone from Shrek Academy stood frozen. Eyes bulged, jaws dropped, brains short-circuited.
Especially Dai Mubai. His face twisted with envy and sour jealousy. Then he looked down at his own three plain spirit rings… and immediately dispersed his spirit power in embarrassment. He'd already lost face enough times in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
But now? Zhu Zhuqing's spirit power was far above his. Three months ago she had only been Rank 29. How could she suddenly leap into the Spirit Ancestor realm… and even absorb a ten-thousand-year fourth ring? There had to be some hidden secret behind this.
The Shrek group looked like they all swallowed poison. No teacher, no student— not even Dai Mubai or Tang San—had such a ridiculous ring configuration. If they tried absorbing a ten-thousand-year fourth ring, that would basically be suicide.
Shrek Academy, self-proclaimed Academy of Monsters.
"Only monsters allowed, no ordinary people." That was their motto.
This generation was considered Flender's most outstanding lineup. Tang San shone the brightest—twin martial souls, a powerful background, talent through the roof.
But now, standing before Zhu Zhuqing…Even Tang San's twin martial soul brilliance was instantly crushed. Staring at her ten-thousand-year ring, his heart burned with desire. The others felt the same.
No one was more shocked than Yu Xiaogang. He practically went insane searching his bag, tossing out ancient texts and books, muttering, "Impossible… absolutely impossible! The fourth ring can't be ten thousand years! It's five thousand years beyond the limit! This is impossible!"
And yet Zhu Zhuqing had done it.
Yu Xiaogang's eyes turned scorching. If Zhu Zhuqing's ten-thousand-year fourth ring had been placed on Tang San instead… oh, the glory he would gain as a teacher!
"Endured endless hardship."
Those four short words echoed repeatedly in Tang San's mind. With Zhu Zhuqing's innate talent, reaching Spirit Ancestor in such a short time was already unbelievable.
跨越十几级?Three months?Absolutely impossible.
Even Tang San's well-traveled teacher had never heard of such a thing.
"Teacher… do you know how Zhuqing absorbed a ten-thousand-year fourth ring?"
Yu Xiaogang awkwardly shook his head. "I've checked all my books and could not find a single precedent. This is likely the first case in the entire Spirit Master world!"
Then he walked straight toward Zhu Zhuqing and Zhou Sidong, hands behind his back.
"Zhou Sidong, Zhu Zhuqing, we were invited to have an exchange with Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Yet you two chose now to cause trouble. You have completely embarrassed Heaven Dou Royal Academy!"
Zhou Sidong didn't even blink. Instead he pointed behind Yu Xiaogang at Dai Mubai.
"Causing trouble? You lot were the ones who laid hands on people inside our academy. Looks to me like you don't take Heaven Dou Royal Academy seriously at all."
"They insulted us first!" someone countered.
Flender inserted himself, tone emotional. "Zhuqing… it's only been three months, yet you've changed so much. I've thought about this matter countless times—back then, we were wrong. You were wronged and misunderstood. But look around—Heaven Dou Royal Academy is full of crooked melons and cracked dates. Staying here only degrades you. Why don't you return to Shrek Academy?"
Flender tossed an olive branch with great sincerity.Zhu Zhuqing's transformation shocked him beyond belief. Among the original Shrek Seven Devils, the ones he valued most were Dai Mubai and Tang San. One was their leader; the other was Tang Hao's son.
Zhu Zhuqing?Quiet, hardworking, but ultimately just a low-level spirit master.He treated her fairly, but she was never "the star."
When she asked to leave, he'd wanted to refuse—yet the appearance of that titled Douluo forced his hand.
But now?She'd undergone a complete rebirth.So Flender decided to play the "emotion" card.
The air turned heavy. Everyone waited for Zhu Zhuqing's answer.
She stepped forward, waved her hand, and a crack split open on the ground—right in front of Shrek Academy.
"What do you mean by that?!" Yu Xiaogang frowned.
Zhu Zhuqing withdrew her spirit and stood beside Zhou Sidong. "Flender… this will be the last time I call you 'Dean.' I never expected you all to remain the same. The moment I grow stronger, you think you can pull me back in. Don't think I don't see through your intentions."
Flender's face flushed green.
"Zhuqing, don't go too far!" Ma Hongjun snapped. "The dean values you! Heaven Dou Royal Academy is full of garbage—look how they treated us! Dai-boss only stepped forward because he couldn't stand it! I thought you'd find a better environment here, but this place is worse than Shrek!"
Zhu Zhuqing shot back instantly. "And yet even if they're rotten, they're still better than you."
She pointed straight at Ma Hongjun's nose. "Who was staring at me earlier? Back at Shrek, you were no better—now you're hiding behind Flender like a coward. If you've got guts, step forward."
"Zhu Zhuqing! You don't know what's good for you!" Dai Mubai roared.
"The one who doesn't know what's good for him is you," Zhu Zhuqing said coldly. "Hanging around trash like Ma Hongjun—Dai Mubai, you really disgust me."
"You—!" Dai Mubai trembled with rage. He knew he wasn't her match anymore.
Damn it.How did this woman get so lucky?!
"From today onward, I, Zhu Zhuqing, cut all ties with Shrek Academy!"
She grabbed Zhou Sidong's hand and turned to leave.
"You pair of shameless adulterers…" Ma Hongjun muttered.
SLAP.
He didn't even see the hand coming. Zhou Sidong's slap spun him like a top; his face ballooned instantly.
"Zhou Sidong! Don't go too far! Shrek Academy isn't for you to bully!"
Flender barked, though fear of the titled Douluo behind Zhou Sidong was written all over him.
Zhou Sidong's tone cooled dangerously. "Zhuqing and I are students of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. You, Flender, publicly insulted our academy—that is humiliation of the institution. Even if our academy has flaws, that isn't something an outsider like you can insult."
His gaze sharpened."And the person Dai Mubai beat earlier? Someone you absolutely cannot afford to offend. Leave now while you still can. One more insult toward Zhuqing, and the consequences will be yours."
He pulled Zhu Zhuqing away, heading down the mountain.
Shrek was left in chaos.
Dai Mubai stared at the two holding hands, bitterness stabbing his chest.
"Damn it… one day I'll—"
Before he finished, Flender slapped him, sending him sprawling.
Everyone froze as Flender grabbed Ma Hongjun by the collar.
"Listen well! From now on, I don't want to hear a single word about Zhou Sidong or Zhu Zhuqing from your mouth!"
"But teacher! Zhu Zhuqing is a traitor! And that Zhou Sidong—!"
Ma Hongjun's shouting echoed everyone's thoughts.
Shrek had never had a traitor before. And Zhu Zhuqing had even slapped Tang San.
Flender's face twisted. "You think I want to swallow this?! They have a titled Douluo backing them! If you want to die, go tell Zhou Sidong to his face. Go on—see whether he kills you! You nearly died last time—did you forget your two and a half months lying in bed?!"
He threw Ma Hongjun aside.
Flender sighed heavily. Their journey was supposed to be a fresh start. Instead, disaster struck before they even entered the academy gates.
"Xiaogang… should we still stay here?"
"Of course." Yu Xiaogang smiled confidently.
Flender scowled. "You can still smile? Stay here just to be humiliated by Zhou Sidong?"
"Suffering now doesn't matter," Yu Xiaogang whispered. "Once we're accepted as instructors or leaders at Heaven Dou Royal Academy… that boy will be nothing."
His words lit a fire in Flender.
"…Maybe you're right."
At that moment, Qin Ming finally rushed over.
Flender instantly turned into a full-blown drama king and burst into tears. "Xiao Ming! You finally came!"
Qin Ming blinked in confusion. "Dean Flender… what happened?"
He had a terrible feeling.
Flender wailed dramatically, "We came all the way from Soto City with sincerity! But as soon as we arrived, Zhou Sidong mercilessly beat my students! Look at Hongjun and Tang San—those handprints are from Zhou Sidong and Zhu Zhuqing!"
Qin Ming's expression froze, then darkened. "Where are Zhou Sidong and Zhuqing now?"
"They just went down the mountain," Yu Xiaogang said.
"I'll handle this. You all are tired—rest for now. Tomorrow, I'll take you to meet the three Education Committees."
Qin Ming escorted them in.
And then he frowned.
"Strange… Xue Beng told me someone beat him. Could it have been Flender's group? If so, they're finished tomorrow…"
As for Zhou Sidong and Zhu Zhuqing—if Sidong hit someone, Qin Ming understood. But Zhu Zhuqing? Something must have happened.
Leaving Heaven Dou Royal Academy behind, Zhou Sidong and Zhu Zhuqing made their way toward Heaven Dou City.
"Flender won't give up," Zhu Zhuqing said coolly. "And that so-called 'Master' looked at me strangely."
Zhou Sidong shrugged. "Flender wants you back now that you're strong. As for the others—they judged the academy's students based on what they saw today. And Yu Xiaogang… he's obsessed with how you absorbed a ten-thousand-year ring. You didn't see it—he almost burned holes in his books."
"But we can't let them just settle into the academy," Zhu Zhuqing frowned.
The thought of living under the same roof as those people made her skin crawl. Especially Ma Hongjun—his gaze earlier screamed danger. Killing him wouldn't even calm her anger.
"No need for us to act," Zhou Sidong smiled. "Someone else will."
After all, Dai Mubai had punched the Fourth Prince of Heaven Dou Empire.
Tomorrow, Shrek Academy would be nailed to the pillar of shame.
They arrived at Qian Renxue's mansion, entering through the side gate.
Inside, Bibi Dong was sitting comfortably reading.
Qian Renxue was still in the palace disguised as Xue Qinghe—she wouldn't return until night. Zhou Sidong used "family matters" as an excuse to keep Zhu Zhuqing from knowing.
"Oh? My son and daughter are back!" Bibi Dong put down her book, smiling brightly.
"Mom!" Zhou Sidong rushed to hug her.
"G-greetings… Madam." Zhu Zhuqing bowed nervously.
"Hm?"Bibi Dong raised a brow and pretended to be offended. "Still calling me 'Madam'?"
Zhu Zhuqing blushed. "…M-mother…"
"That's better!" Bibi Dong beamed.
Ever since her son became close with Zhu Zhuqing, she had treated the girl like her own daughter.
