Zhu Zhuqing VS Dai Mubai
Chapter 21 Zhu Zhuqing VS Dai Mubai
"Snake Granny, stop talking nonsense. Teacher Su Ran already said that we should not disturb his students absorbing soul rings. Get lost."
"Do you know who our teacher Su Ran is? He is the dean of Taoyuan Academy, and every student he teaches is an outstanding individual, a rare genius."
"Even if your old man were here, he'd have to be respectful. Do you think Teacher Su Ran would consider you someone important? Don't disturb Teacher Su Ran's peace and quiet!"
"This crested snake belongs to our little Ao."
Zhao Wuji, looking fierce and menacing, berated Chaotianxiang.
These words infuriated both Chao Tianxiang and Meng Yiran.
Chao Tianxiang's face turned ashen.
Meng Yiran's pretty face also showed some indignation, and she couldn't help but speak up for her grandparents:
"My grandparents are known as the Peerless Dragon Ladies. Together, they can even fight a Title Douluo. Stop talking nonsense, okay? I'm not being unreasonable!"
Xiao Wu was a little confused and said to Tang San:
"Third Brother, wasn't Teacher Zhao seriously injured by this Teacher Su Ran before? He's been cursing and swearing at Teacher Su Ran behind her back, so why is he speaking up for Su Ran today?"
"Shhh."
Tang San made a shushing gesture, indicating to Xiao Wu to keep her voice down:
"Teacher Zhao is just praising Su Ran. Let's just watch."
"To elevate Su Ran?"
Xiao Wu still didn't quite understand; even with a rabbit's brain that had been around for 100,000 years, it still couldn't wrap its head around it.
Chao Tianxiang took a deep breath, calming her anger, and stared at Zhao Wuji, saying:
"Zhao Wuji, you don't need to stir things up. If my old man were here, would you still dare to shout like that? You would be the first one I teach a lesson."
"hehe."
"You little brat, what right do you have to interrupt your elders?"
"I seriously injured this crested snake, and it rightfully belongs to Shrek Academy. This snake-woman can't beat me, so she tries to distort the facts and take advantage of your power to steal it. She has ulterior motives."
"Snake Granny, you've miscalculated. Teacher Su Ran is from our neighboring courtyard and is very friendly with Shrek Academy. No matter what you say, she won't fall for your trick."
"Teacher Su Ran, we'll be leaving now so as not to disturb your peace."
Zhao Wuji sneered and planned to leave with the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent.
He had already beaten the crested serpent half to death; if he didn't find an opportunity for Xiao Ao to finish it off, it would probably be crippled.
Moreover, with Su Ran around, and their feud with the Snake Granny, if the Dragon Lord really comes, things will be terrible; this place is not a good place to stay.
It would be best to stir things up and let the Dragon God and Snake Goddess go to Su Ran to demand an explanation.
This move was taught to him by Flanders.
As the saying goes, one cannot hit a smiling face. Zhao Wuji's attitude was so good this time that others might have been too embarrassed to refuse him.
But Su Ran's eyes narrowed, and she shot out a peach blossom branch from her hand, which landed in front of Zhao Wuji, preventing him from taking the Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent away.
Upon seeing the peach blossom branch, Zhao Wuji's heart skipped a beat, and a bad premonition arose within him.
Su Ran said calmly:
"I didn't want to get involved in this, but you've been talking too much, so I'm thinking of getting involved now."
Zhao Wuji is wicked. No wonder Snake Granny said he was infamous in the past. This is clearly an attempt to make Snake Granny think that he is in cahoots with Zhao Wuji. When Zhao Wuji runs away with the Shrek Academy people, he will be made to take the blame and face the wrath of Dragon King and Snake Granny.
"I'll give you two choices: one, you keep this Phoenix-tailed Crested Serpent; two, settle this according to the rules of the Soul Master world—have a fight."
"1, 111, I choose 1."
"We'll keep this crested snake!"
Zhao Wuji blurted it out almost without hesitation.
Zhao Wuji was drenched in sweat.
Asking me to duel with Su Ran is no different from asking me to die.
Damn it, Dean, the trick you taught me to use someone else to do your dirty work isn't working.
Chao Tianxiang and Meng Yiran were completely dumbfounded.
Zhao Wuji made his choice way too quickly...
The previously fierce and violent Zhao Wuji was now filled with fear. How could he be so afraid of this young man?
Although the young man's face could not be seen, judging from his clothes and voice, he should not be much older than Yi Ran, at most at the Soul King realm? How could he make Zhao Wuji, who was at the Soul Saint realm, so horrified?
Could it be that this young man named Su Ran has some powerful background?
"Don't you want to know who's fighting whom?"
Su Ran glanced at Zhao Wuji, her gaze indifferent.
"Hehe, I was already defeated by you, Teacher Su Ran. There's no need to fight anymore. I admit defeat. You can do whatever you want with this Phoenix-tailed Crested Snake."
Zhao Wuji smiled apologetically.
Only Oscar felt a little regretful, as this was his third spirit ring!
"Originally, I wanted Dai Mubai from Shrek Academy to duel with my disciple Zhu Zhuqing to decide the ownership of this Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent. Since you chose option 1, then get lost."
Su Ran said calmly.
"Okay, all done!"
"Huh? Wait? Who did you say? Mu Bai and Zhu Zhuqing fighting?"
Zhao Wuji was all ready to make a quick getaway when he realized what was happening and paused for a moment.
Some distance away, Dai Mubai, whose expression had been rather unpleasant, suddenly brightened up upon hearing this:
"Teacher, let me do it."
"I hate betrayers more than anyone else in my life, especially when that person is my fiancée. I have to teach her a lesson, not to mention that I can win back the Phoenix Tail Crested Serpent for Xiao Ao."
"are you sure?"
"Yeah, she was only around level 27 a little over a month ago, she was no match for me at all. In just over a month, I don't believe her strength could have improved that much."
Dai Mubai said in a deep voice.
"Alright, go ahead then."
"Professor Su Ran, my student has a stubborn streak; he wants to try something new. Is there any way to change his options now?"
Zhao Wuji asked.
Su Ran smiled faintly, "Of course."
[Disciple Zhu Zhuqing successfully absorbed her third spirit ring, and her spirit skill was successfully attached and shared. The age of the third spirit ring is 2,700 years.]
[Disciple Ning Rongrong has successfully absorbed her third spirit ring. Her spirit skill has been successfully attached and shared. The age of her third spirit ring is 2,500 years.]
[Host's soul power has increased. Current host soul power level: 74.]
"Zhu Qing, now that you've successfully broken through, come out and overcome your inner demons."
Su Ran called out to the forest area behind him.
Sure enough, two beautiful girls appeared.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes were bright as she looked straight ahead.
Ning Rongrong skipped and hopped to Su Ran's side:
"Teacher, we've succeeded!"
"The spirit beast the teacher chose is amazing! After absorbing this spirit ring, my second Golden Bell skill is complete! I can start refining my bones now!"
Su Ran smiled indulgently and patted Ning Rongrong's pink hair:
"That's good."
Ning Rongrong was quite pleased with Su Ran's head pat, and shrank her neck like a little pink kitten.
Zhu Zhuqing: Um... it seems like I'm the cat...
"My Ten Kings of Hell have also been stabilized, and it seems that I can now communicate with the Yama Qi of the First King of Hell."
Zhu Zhuqing said.
"Hmm, are you ready?"
"I'm ready, teacher."
Zhu Zhuqing looked sharply at Dai Mubai across from her.
