But after he relaxed, he became even angrier and was about to get up, but because Zhu Zhuqing was still in his arms, he only moved slightly and said sternly.
"Zhuqing, I'll take you home now and get your two grandfathers to take action. I won't let Dai Mubai die a quick death."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing shook her head at Ning Rongrong, a smile finally appearing on her lips.
"Thank you, Rongrong, but it's alright."
"How can this be allowed? Not only did Dai Mubai cultivate that kind of secret technique, but he also tried to drag you down with him, and he almost killed you. How can we just let this go?"
Ning Rongrong refused very decisively.
"No, Zhuqing, this matter cannot be left like this. I disagree!"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Ning Rongrong and explained, "No, Rongrong, that's not what I meant."
As she spoke, Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes sparkled with life.
"Perhaps I should thank Dai Mubai. He personally killed the Zhu Zhuqing who was willing to bear her fate. The current Zhu Zhuqing is reborn and lives for herself, so I will take revenge myself."
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing stood up from Ning Rongrong's embrace and pulled Ning Rongrong up with her as well.
After cleaning off the stains on his body, he said to Ning Rongrong.
"Rongrong, do you remember that suggestion you made to me before? Let's leave Shrek Academy together!"
Ning Rongrong looked at the newborn Zhu Zhuqing, her cherry lips parted slightly, but she still wanted to go home and find Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo to deal with Dai Mubai.
However, since Zhu Zhuqing wanted to handle it herself, she had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, Zhuqing, let's go now!"
Chapter 160 Dialogue
The following day, in a classroom at Shrek Academy.
When Yu Xiaogang entered the classroom, his gaze swept over the empty seats, and his brows, which had become much thinner, furrowed involuntarily.
Although he/she can now cultivate to a higher level, it does not mean that theoretical proof is unimportant.
In the upcoming Elite Tournament of Advanced Soul Master Academies, the most anticipated competition on the entire continent, he will prove to all Soul Masters that his ten core competencies are correct.
However, to achieve a good ranking in the competition, a good team is essential, and Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's positions are irreplaceable within Shrek Academy at present.
Although the original Blue Tyrant Academy had a large number of students, there were none who could truly be called geniuses, let alone genius-level support or agility-based attackers.
So when Yu Xiaogang saw the two empty seats, he spoke up somewhat displeased.
"Where are Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing? Those two are getting more and more outrageous."
Upon hearing this, Tang Sanyu, Tian Heng, Ma Hongjun, and other insiders subconsciously looked at Dai Mubai.
This scene made Dai Mubai extremely embarrassed. His already gloomy face darkened even more, and a terrifying killing intent resurfaced in his blood-red evil eyes.
'Looks like yesterday's warning didn't have any effect. Damn it, as a woman of the Spirit Cat clan, I should just accept my fate and not have my own thoughts!'
As Dai Mubai roared and cursed Zhu Zhuqing in his heart, he also raised his right hand at the same time.
"Master, I...!"
However, before Dai Mubai could speak, a soft female voice came from the back row.
She was Jiang Zhu, one of the elite students of the original Blue Tyrant Academy, level 35, and a support healing-type Soul Master who possessed the weapon spirit Healing Scepter.
After the Shrek team arrived, he was also assigned to the Shrek team by the master as a substitute player, and he trained with the Shrek team regularly.
“Master, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing have already left the academy, and they have even taken their belongings from the dormitory.”
Jiangzhu's soft voice revealed information that shocked everyone.
"what!"
Dai Mubai and Oscar stood up immediately, and the desks and chairs that had been pushed aside made a loud noise in the classroom.
Although both were shocked, their underlying emotions were quite different.
Dai Mubai's face was now extremely pale. He really hadn't expected that Zhu Zhuqing would actually run away.
The woman who traveled all the way from the Star Luo Empire to find him actually ran away because of this little thing.
Moreover, it's obvious that Zhu Zhuqing has been taken away by Ning Rongrong. Babao City is only a few dozen miles away, and they've probably arrived by now. As for him, there's absolutely nothing he can do about it right now.
'Damn the Zhu family, they can't even discipline their own daughter.'
Thinking of this, Dai Mubai's killing intent surged violently, to the point that a thin layer of bloody mist appeared on his body.
However, before Dai Mubai could unleash his power, an even more terrifyingly strong hand pressed down on his shoulder and slammed him onto the already upright stool.
On the other side, Tang San looked at Dai Mubai, who was being held down by Yu Tianheng, with a somewhat gloomy expression, and asked in a low voice.
"Mu Bai, what happened?"
Under the scrutinizing gazes of the three men and the somewhat curious look of Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai opened his mouth.
But then he thought about how he had acted yesterday, which was indeed a bit hard to explain, so he coughed twice and answered in a low voice.
"Let's talk about it after class!"
Yu Xiaogang's expression darkened further. He didn't care whether Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing went to school or not, but their departure directly disrupted his plans for the Shrek team.
But now he's just like Dai Mubai, completely unable to control these two. At least Dai Mubai has a so-called engagement, but his relationship with them is just that of student and teacher. If the students drop out, what can he do?
Yu Xiaogang could only pretend that the matter did not exist and said coldly.
"Attend class!"
-
The captain's office of the Tiandou Royal Academy and the Tiandou Team.
Dugu Yan looked at Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, whom she had only met a few times recently, and a hint of embarrassment appeared on her beautiful face.
After thinking for a while, Dugu Yan looked at the two women with her beautiful golden eyes and parted her red lips slightly.
“Rongrong, it’s no problem for you two to join the Tiandou team. It just so happens that two of our team members were kicked out of the team for some reason these days, and the two of you can fill the gaps.”
"As for my identity, I will explain it in detail to the Education Commission and His Highness the Crown Prince. It's not a big deal."
At this point, Dugu Yan looked at Zhu Zhuqing, whose pretty face was somewhat uneasy, and said softly.
"Zhu Zhuqing, as for your desire to join our Medicine King Sect, I cannot make that decision."
Indeed, Zhu Zhuqing ultimately decided to join the Medicine King Sect.
Although Ning Rongrong's presence makes joining the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School easier, and the safety difference is minimal.
If Zhu Zhuqing wants to surpass Dai Mubai, then the only way is to go to the Medicine King Sect. Everyone knows that the Medicine King Sect provides excellent training for its disciples, with all kinds of pills and many improved secret techniques and theories to guide their learning.
These are things that the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School lacks. Moreover, in the end, the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile School is just an auxiliary sect, and its most famous feature is its wealth.
"Captain Dugu, aren't you the fiancée of Sect Master Mu Ci?" Zhu Zhuqing asked directly, her mind a little anxious.
“That’s right, I am indeed Aci’s fiancée, and my grandfather is also an elder in charge of this matter. He does have the ability to let you enter the sect directly, but I don’t want to use that ability.”
"The sect has complete rules and regulations. If I were to let you in directly, it would be unfair to other disciples who entered the sect through their own efforts."
Dugu Yan looked at Zhu Zhuqing and said somewhat apologetically.
I hope you can understand this.
Zhu Zhuqing understood perfectly, so she nodded in understanding, but then continued.
"I can participate in the Medicine King Sect's assessment, and I'm sure I'll pass."
Zhu Zhuqing was confident in this. Although a seventh-level innate soul power might sound low, it was actually among the top talents in the Douluo Continent.
Before taking the pills given to her by Mu Ci, Huo Wu was only at the seventh level of the Innate Realm, while Huo Wushuang and Shui Yue'er were not even at the seventh level.
Dugu Yan was clearly aware of this as well. After thinking for a moment, she decided to push the matter out, and a beautiful smile bloomed on her pretty face.
"How about this, instead of us getting bogged down here, I'll take you directly to see someone who can make the decision!"
Ning Rongrong was stunned for a moment, then reacted in the next instant, and said with some surprise.
"Brother Mu Ci is at the academy?!"
Chapter 161 Mu Ci Meets Zhu Zhuqing
In the conference room of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.
Mu Ci and Xue Qinghe, dressed as Qian Renxue, sat on the sofa, looking at Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing sitting upright opposite them, and were surprised.
Ning Rongrong was alright, but Zhu Zhuqing's arrival was indeed somewhat unexpected.
Could it be that that subconscious action last time caused a crack to appear within the Shrek Seven Devils?
However, Mu Ci immediately dismissed this thought.
After all, with his flapping wings, many things in this world have undergone unpredictable changes, and the events described in the original work are no longer reliable references.
To predict the future, Mu Ci would need to possess an imperial scepter.
At this moment, Mu Ci looked at Zhu Zhuqing and said with a gentle smile.
"Our Medicine King Sect welcomes anyone who meets the requirements to join, whether they are ordinary people or Soul Masters, however..."
At this point, Mu Ci paused for a moment before continuing.
"However, given your background, I still want to know your reasons for joining, is that alright?"
"Of course, you can also think of this as an interview before joining the sect. You have great talent and a bright future. As the sect leader, I have high hopes for you."
Zhu Zhuqing listened to Mu Ci's words, lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, then looked up and stared directly into Mu Ci's eyes.
"Dai Mubai's actions have disappointed me greatly. I don't want to die with him like this, nor do I want to accept the fate imposed on me by others. From now on, I want to live for myself."
Mu Ci stared into Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, smiled, and nodded.
"Hmm, that's a good point, but it doesn't give me enough reason to believe it."
"After all, you came all the way from the Star Luo Empire to find Dai Mubai, right? Although Dai Mubai was indeed disappointing before, indulging in sensual pleasures, as far as I know, since you came, Dai Mubai has restrained himself a lot and has been cultivating much more diligently."
Logically speaking, your opinion of him should have changed, right?
Mu Ci's words reminded Zhu Zhuqing of her own twelve years, and her eyes reddened as she silently lowered her head.
