"Master? Why have you come?"
Zhao Wuji looked at the man in black clothes with some confusion.
A look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"None of you are attending class. How am I not to come here and look for you? Behaving like this, how is our Shrek Academy going to win the Soul Master competition?!"
Yu Xiaogang looked at everyone with an icy gaze.
"Whether Shrek Academy reinstates my enrollment no longer matters. A good horse doesn't eat the grass behind it. You chat, I'll take my leave; there will be another time."
Master approached.
Zhu Zhuqing had no interest in staying.
She was ready to leave immediately.
Truth be told, she had not the slightest interest in Master.
For Shrek Academy to let such a person benefit from nepotism and become Vice Principal, it was truly ridiculous.
"You'd better leave quickly, our Shrek Academy does not welcome you! A girl without discipline, if you came, you would only disturb the order of the academy!"
Yu Xiaogang said coldly.
"Heh."
Zhu Zhuqing snorted coldly.
She had only been gone for one night.
Yet Master had directly expelled her.
In fact, Tang San often left, but nothing happened to him.
In the end, it was still because her own strength was too weak, Master looked down on her.
After all, there were a few at Blue Tyrant Academy with higher levels.
Like Huang Yuan, Tai Long, Jiazhu.
By kicking her out, they could smoothly take her place.
No matter.
Zhu Zhuqing did not care for it.
"What is that expression, feeling resentful? Could it be that you think I, Yu Xiaogang, made a mistake in expelling you?"
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's expression, Yu Xiaogang suddenly asked coldly.
"You're not wrong, you were never wrong from the beginning to the end. It was always my mistake."
Zhu Zhuqing responded.
"Recognizing your own mistakes is good, this shows you won't be too bad in the future. If you still want to strive for improvement, take my disciple Tang San as your goal. Right now, you're only slightly lacking in talent. Diligence can compensate for deficiencies; train every day according to my methods, and perhaps in the future, you might reach the Soul Douluo level."
After hearing Zhu Zhuqing's statement, Master thought she had come to a realization.
He promptly took on a teaching tone, instructing Zhu Zhuqing.
"Perhaps you've misunderstood me, what I meant by 'it was always my mistake' is that I should never have allowed a level 29 trash like you to waste my cultivation journey."
Zhu Zhuqing retorted unceremoniously.
Since she was leaving the academy anyway, what did she have to fear?
"Quite the words from Zhu Zhuqing. I try to teach you, and you repay me with sarcasm. Truly ungrateful!"
As soon as these words came out, Master's face, previously smiling, now bore a completely different look, his gaze turning icy cold as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing!
"Did I make fun of you? Let's not even talk about whether I want to stay at Shrek Academy or not, just consider that you expelled me for merely being gone for one night. Do you think what you did was reasonable?"
Zhu Zhuqing had intended to leave.
But listening to Master's repeated pretenses, she got angry too.
She directly questioned Master.
"It's unreasonable."
Whether it was Zhao Wuji or Ning Rongrong or Ma Hongjun, they all shook their heads slightly!
Indeed, it was unreasonable.
"To expel someone for missing an afternoon and a night of classes, what's the need for a reason? The school rules are the reason!"
Yu Xiaogang spoke.
"What about your precious disciple Tang San then? Doesn't he also often go out? Maybe for an afternoon, or overnight!"
As soon as Master's voice fell, Dai Mubai immediately spoke.
"That's right, officials are allowed to set fires, but the common people can't even light a lamp!"
Ning Rongrong also chimed in.
"That was before the new school rules. From now on, it will be like this," Master declared.
Meanwhile, Zhu Zhuqing had already left.
She had no interest in listening to Master's rambling.
Just a shameless person, that's all.
With such people around, Shrek is doomed sooner or later!!
"Zhuqing! Wait a second!!"
Dai Mubai saw Zhu Zhuqing leaving and immediately stood in front of her.
"Move aside!"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Dai Mubai coldly.
Her beautiful eyes were like frost, inexplicably chilling.
"I'm sorry I misunderstood you just now, please give me a chance to make amends!"
Dai Mubai noticed the scars on Zhu Zhuqing's knees.
They were indeed injuries caused by gravel.
He had misunderstood.
Just a moment ago, he had hesitated about whether to apologize or not.
But after thinking it over, he realized that if he didn't apologize, the matter would never be resolved, so he eventually decided to swallow his pride and apologize.
"You don't owe me anything, there's no need to apologize to me."
Zhu Zhuqing stepped to the side.
And headed for the school exit.
The others all looked at Dai Mubai, each one hoping he would chase after her.
If Zhu Zhuqing really left, she might never return.
There was still a chance to keep her.
"I'm admitting my mistake to you. I shouldn't have lost my temper at you, let alone suspect you of doing such dirty and obscene things. Please, forgive me, Zhuqing!"
Dai Mubai ran up to her again and said.
"I already said there's no need for you to apologize, and besides, even if I were an unclean woman, that would still be none of Young Master Dai's business."
Zhu Zhuqing said.
Some things were already clear. From now on, she would have nothing to do with Shrek Academy.
As for the former teammates from Shrek.
Some would remain in her memory, while others she would let vanish forever from her recollection!
"Zhu Zhuqing, what on earth do you want?! I've already humbled myself to ask for your forgiveness; can't you just forgive me?!"
Dai Mubai watched Zhu Zhuqing determined to leave, completely unappreciative of his effort.
And at that moment, Dai Mubai exploded too.
He, the esteemed Young Master Dai, had never begged someone like he did today!
And each time, it was all because of this woman.
Yet she acted as if he did not exist!!
He was angry!!
Very angry!!
"Fine, I forgive you."
Zhu Zhuqing said.
However, even though these were the words Dai Mubai most wanted to hear, his heart shattered upon hearing them.
Because Zhu Zhuqing's words were too indifferent.
It was the kind of tone that seemed perfunctory.
Or perhaps, it was just a way to completely sever ties with him.
And so, Zhu Zhuqing left Shrek.
Dai Mubai watched her receding figure from behind.
Slowly, slowly fading away.
He clenched his fist tightly.
He really wanted to shout out loud, Zhu Zhuqing, I like you!!!
But he couldn't shout it out no matter what, the words stuck in his throat.
"Sigh~"
Ning Rongrong looked sorrowful at this moment.
Zhuqing Sister was gone.
The dorm still had Xiaowu.
But she felt an emptiness nonetheless.
Of course, the most barren was Dai Mubai's heart.
It was as if something had been dug out.
"Since the disgrace of our Shrek has been expelled, let's start formal training in the afternoon. Ning Rongrong, you'll carry 400 pounds of rocks, run 50 laps around the school. Oscar, you do the same as Rongrong. Ma Hongjun, it's 800 pounds for you, 50 laps. Dai Mubai, you will carry 1,200 pounds of rocks and run 50 laps around the school. You may use Soul Power, but you must complete the 50 laps before 4 o'clock."
