Chapter 114: Pig-Headed Dai Mubai

~10 min read 1,991 words

"... You yourself don't go easy on your own people either..."

Shi Quan's slaps and fists landed on Dai Mubai's face like raindrops. In no time at all, Dai Mubai had turned into a pig's head, and he became dazed and confused, his martial soul having been deactivated without anyone noticing.

"Rongrong, Boss Dai and Pangzi are from the same academy as us after all, so why don't we just let it go?" Oscar said, unable to bear the sight.

Ning Rongrong let out a cold snort, "They brought that trouble on themselves. 'Same academy'—if it weren't for that useless Master saying we are a team, I wouldn't even bother with this Dai Mubai. Have you forgotten what Zhuang Zhou said before? Whoever stirs up trouble handles it themselves. He dared to provoke him, so he brought his own death upon himself; what does that have to do with us? One by one, they get a little strength and think they're all that, not knowing there is a heaven beyond heaven and people beyond people. Daring to look for trouble with Shi Quan, that's them asking for suffering."

"But Rongrong..." Oscar still wanted to persuade her.

Ning Rongrong, however, gave him no chance, "But what 'but'? Even I have to listen to his words; you want me to go persuade him?"

"You have to listen to him?" Oscar stood frozen in place, as if he had heard some explosive news.

Seeing that Dai Mubai was about to lose consciousness, Shi Quan stopped with a lack of interest and looked at Ning Rongrong, saying, "Stop spreading rumors. As for these two, you can take them back yourselves. I'm heading back."

Shi Quan gripped his right hand, and the Blue Silver King dissipated. Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun immediately collapsed onto the ground.

Seeing this, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of Oscar's mouth. If he were asked to carry one person, he could still manage, but with both of them unconscious, how was he supposed to carry them alone?

The injuries on these two were such that he feared they wouldn't wake up for a short while even after eating his Big Sausage.

"Stop..." Shi Quan quickly raised his hand to stop him, "I'm going back to the hotel to rest. Let's each go back to our own homes and find our own mothers."

By the time Ning Rongrong reacted, where could she still find a trace of Shi Quan?

On the other side, Shi Quan's figure flashed by and immediately blended into the crowd.

"Teacher, Boss Dai and Pangzi are injured; it might be a bother for you to treat them." Oscar pointed to Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun on the stretcher behind him.

Having just finished treating Xiao Wu and preparing to sleep, *dong dong dong*, a knock sounded at the door again.

"What is it, Xiao Ao?" Shao Xin frowned and opened the room door.

As the saying goes, money makes the mare go.

Shao Xin's room.

Oscar could only grit his teeth, spend a few silver coins, and hire a few people to help him bring the two unconscious men back to the academy.

"..." Ning Rongrong looked at Oscar with some hesitation in her expression.

"Hmph!" Ning Rongrong's expression paused, she let out a cold snort, and then asked, "What hotel are you staying at?"

"Shi Quan, wait for me." Ning Rongrong hurriedly chased after him.

Shao Xin was stunned on the spot when he saw Dai Mubai's swollen pig head, "That's Mu Bai? Who could actually beat Dai Mubai into such a state?"

Shrek Academy.

After saying this, Ning Rongrong turned and walked away.

"Teacher, Teacher..." Oscar's voice came from outside the door.

Oscar's expression paused. Shi Quan was truly right; if the Dean found out that Shi Quan had just beaten Xiao Wu to a pulp, and now had turned his personal disciple Ma Hongjun into this and beaten Dai Mubai like this, he would probably fly to Soto City immediately to give him a sound thrashing.

"Detestable Shi Quan." Ning Rongrong stomped her feet in annoyance, looked angrily at Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun on the ground, and said to Oscar, "I won't look after these two; if you want to take them, take them back yourself."

"Forget it, forget it." Shi Quan waved his hands quickly, "To be able to teach such students, the teacher surely can't be much better. If I tell you and they are sent back, I feel like they'll just come to find trouble with me again."

Shao Xin hurriedly walked out, summoned his Sugar Bean martial soul, quickly made a few healing and recovery Sugar Beans and stuffed them into Dai Mubai's mouth, then turned his attention to Ma Hongjun on the side to check his injuries. It was fine not to check, but upon checking, he discovered something abnormal.

"Xiao Ao, what's going on with Pangzi? His injuries should have been caused by Mu Bai, right?" As an academy teacher, Shao Xin knew the soul power of everyone in the academy like the back of his hand, and he discovered the abnormality as soon as he checked.

"Teacher, this was all an accident; Boss Dai was also set up by someone." Oscar said helplessly.

"You all should think about how to explain this to the Dean tomorrow." Shao Xin glared at Oscar, "Mu Bai's injuries are all superficial; they look miserable but aren't serious. Pangzi looks fine on the surface, but his internal injuries are severe. If I'm not mistaken, he took a hit from Mu Bai's White Tiger Intense Light Wave, right? Even with my treatment, he'll have to lie down for a day or two, which will definitely delay your daytime training."

"Ah?" Oscar's expression turned bitter, and he could only change the subject, "How is Xiao Wu?"

Shao Xin said, "Xiao Wu only has some superficial injuries, but it seems she's a bit sad because her hair was cut."

"Understood. I will explain to the Dean tomorrow."

"Alright, then you handle it yourself." Shao Xin looked at Dai Mubai, who was still lying on the ground, nodded at Oscar, and returned to his room.

"Boss Dai, stop pretending. The teacher already said you only have superficial injuries, so hurry up and get up; there's no one else here." Oscar looked at Dai Mubai on the ground and said gloomily.

Dai Mubai's originally swollen face had already rapidly reduced in swelling under the treatment of Shao Xin's Sugar Beans, but clear slap marks and a pair of panda eyes remained on his face.

"Hiss." Dai Mubai finally opened his eyes slowly. As soon as his bruised eye socket moved, Dai Mubai couldn't help but gasp in pain.

"What now?" Oscar struggled to hoist the unconscious Ma Hongjun onto his back.

"What now? Let's go back to the dormitory first." Dai Mubai cursed, "As long as that kid stays in Soto City for one day, I will definitely take revenge sooner or later!"

"As for tomorrow, we'll just tell the Dean the truth. I want to see if, when facing the Dean and Xiao San's questioning, Ning Rongrong won't reveal that kid's background."

"Isn't that making things difficult for Rongrong?" Oscar said in a low voice.

"Xiao Ao, you stinky brat, putting romance before friendship—say that again?" Dai Mubai glared with his tiger eyes.

"Like you're any different." Oscar muttered softly.

"What did you say!" Dai Mubai glared fiercely at Oscar. The movement of his mouth made the corners of his lips pull in pain, looking exceptionally comical.

Oscar hurriedly waved his hands and said, "I just wanted to say that the name 'Dugu Qiubai' should be Shi Quan; that's what Rongrong calls him. However, his background doesn't seem simple. Before, when we were in Soto City, Rongrong told me herself that even she has to listen to that Shi Quan."

"Ning Rongrong is someone who doesn't fear even the Dean, yet she has to listen to that Shi Quan. And don't forget, his second soul ring is a thousand-year one. I have never heard of anyone being able to absorb a thousand-year ring as their second soul ring. I think the power behind him is not simple either; I'm afraid the academy can't afford to provoke him."

A flash of ruthlessness crossed the depths of Dai Mubai's eyes, "So what if it's not simple? I'm not afraid of him. So what if he absorbed a thousand-year one? Didn't Xiao San's third soul ring also successfully absorb beyond his level? His third soul ring exceeded two thousand years!"

"Xiao Ao, I won't make things difficult for you regarding this matter. Tomorrow, you don't need to say anything; we'll handle it ourselves." As he spoke, Dai Mubai took Ma Hongjun from Oscar's back and turned to walk toward their dormitory.

Seeing this, Oscar could only sigh helplessly and return to the empty dormitory alone. Looking at the empty bed on one side of the room, Oscar felt a bit dazed.

"Can only rely on myself!"

After whispering to himself, Oscar sat cross-legged on the bed and began to cultivate earnestly.

The next morning.

As the assembly bell of Shrek Academy rang, the six members of Shrek, excluding Ma Hongjun, arrived at the playground one after another.

Compared to the seven who were usually full of vitality, Xiao Wu clutched her scorpion braid that had just reached her shoulders, her eyes somewhat unfocused, and she looked exceptionally exhausted.

Dai Mubai hung his head, while Ning Rongrong looked refreshed and spirited.

"Mu Bai, what happened to you? And where is Ma Hongjun?" As soon as Flender arrived at the Playground, he noticed the bruises on Dai Mubai's face, and his brows immediately furrowed.

"Dean..." Dai Mubai unwillingly recounted what happened last night. Dai Mubai still did not want to make things difficult for Oscar; he only said that Ning Rongrong knew 'Dugu Qiubai', and that the injuries he and Ma Hongjun sustained were caused by this 'Dugu Qiubai'.

After listening, Flender's eyes were filled with anger. In his view, being beaten because one's skills were inferior was perfectly normal, but for Shi Quan to dare to humiliate his students like this was something he absolutely could not accept.

Especially when they learned of Ning Rongrong and the specific identity and background of that Dugu Qiubai, the two of them looked in unison at Ning Rongrong, who was standing to the side acting as if it had nothing to do with her.

"Don't look at me. If you want revenge, then use your own strength to win against him; I can't help you..." Ning Rongrong waved her hand, looked at Tang San, and then looked at Flender. "As for you, Dean, if you want to bully the young with your seniority, then you are welcome to go and cause trouble for him. However, I will warn you: you must first be prepared to be chased and hammered by a Title Douluo."

"A Title Douluo?" Flender's expression paused, and he cursed inwardly: since when did Title Douluos just show up whenever they pleased?

If someone else had said this, Flender would naturally still be suspicious, but since these words came from Ning Rongrong's mouth, the concept was different.

Behind Ning Rongrong stood the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the two great Douluos, Sword and Bone. Since she said it this way, then behind this 'Dugu Qiubai' there must stand at least one Title Douluo.

"Ning Rongrong is right; if you lose, then win it back yourselves." Master spoke up at the right moment: "Spirit Masters are inherently mutually restraining; no one is invincible. You are a whole; do not be dejected because of a single individual failure. This incident is telling you the importance of partners. In yesterday's situation, as long as 'Dugu Qiubai' had encountered Tang San or Zhuqing, the outcome of the matter would have been different..."
