Chapter 11 New Task. _1

Ma Hongjun became even more panicked after hearing Dai Mubai's words.

"Boss, what exactly is going on? Can you guys explain it to me properly?"

Dai Mubai didn't say anything, so Oscar sighed and said, "I'll tell you then."

"This thing, it should start from yesterday's admission test..."

Soon, Oscar began to recount yesterday's events in detail.

And the shock on Ma Hongjun's face grew deeper and deeper until it turned into a sort of panic.

Good gracious!

So that mysterious young man wasn't playing the pig to eat the tiger; he was a real tiger!

An eighteen-year-old Titled Douluo, this was like a rhythm heading for the heavens.

...

On the other side.

Qin Xiao followed Flander to the academy's dining hall.

To put it simply, the word "simple" was enough to describe the dining hall.

"Your Highness, this is the Shrek dining hall, it is indeed quite simple," Flander said somewhat embarrassingly.

The dining hall in front of them was not much different from a farmhouse.

No.

To be exact, it was a farmhouse that had been converted, and the cook was a villager from the village.

He thought Qin Xiao couldn't help but find it unsatisfactory.

But what Qin Xiao responded surprised him, "Being able to shelter from the wind and rain is already quite good. When I'm training, I dive into the deep mountains and forests, where conditions are much harsher than this. Not to mention that someone has prepared breakfast..."

With that, he walked into the dining hall.

Meanwhile, Flander felt deeply moved inside.

Just from these words, he knew that Qin Xiao being able to become a Titled Douluo at such a young age was no mere chance occurrence.

...

Entering the dining hall.

Qin Xiao noticed that some people had already arrived.

Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong sat opposite each other, silent, eating porridge and steamed buns on their own.

Tang San and Xiaowu sat at a table together, also eating plain food, and whispered to each other.

But.

When Qin Xiao walked in, their gazes all turned to look at him.

Ning Rongrong made no attempt to hide the curiosity in her eyes.

Zhu Zhuqing just glanced at Qin Xiao before shifting her gaze.

But Qin Xiao could still detect a brief and complex look in the girl's eyes.

Tang San also glanced at Qin Xiao before lowering his eyes again.

It was Xiaowu who had the biggest reaction, her face filled with panic, and with a clatter, she even dropped the unpeeled egg from her hand onto the ground.

Honestly, Xiaowu had wanted to leave this place since the first time she saw Qin Xiao.

But she didn't dare.

She always felt that Qin Xiao had set his sights on her and was afraid that her impulsiveness would provoke an extreme reaction from him.

"Your Highness, your breakfast is already prepared," Flander said, coming to the side of a long table and gesturing to Qin Xiao.

Qin Xiao paused, following the voice and looking over.

Steamed buns, sesame cakes, stuffed buns, shumai, wontons...

There were various kinds of breakfast food, at least seven or eight kinds. This showed that Flander had indeed gone to great lengths.

"There's no need for such trouble, Dean, just treat me as a regular student," Qin Xiao said with a slight smile.

The conditions at Shrek Academy were limited, and the fact that they had gone to these lengths showed that they were extremely diligent.

At the same time, Qin Xiao understood that Flander was still very nervous when dealing with him.

After hearing Qin Xiao's words, Flander forced a bitter smile.

It was said that Titled Douluos were often known for their temperament, who knew if you were the type to stab someone in the back with a smile?

Frankly speaking.

Even after saying that, he dared not neglect Qin Xiao.

He even felt that as long as Qin Xiao was in the academy, he needed to tread carefully.

There was no choice, the situation was stronger than people.

"Alright then."

Qin Xiao no longer paid attention to Flander and began eating on his own.

The breakfast was average, but he ate with relish.

It didn't take long before he had cleaned his plate.

"Dang dang dang..."

It was at this moment that the Shrek Academy bell rang out.

And Flander put on a serious face, "Attention all students, this is the assembly bell. All students must immediately gather on the training field."

Upon hearing this, Tang San, Xiaowu, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others stood up and walked out of the dining hall.

"Your Highness, do you..." Flander suddenly realized that Qin Xiao was also moving.

"I've got nothing else to do, I might as well take a look," Qin Xiao said.

Qin Xiao said facing outward and walked away.

....

"Boss Dai, Fatty, did you hear the bell?"

Outside the academy, Oscar spoke anxiously.

"Let's go, back to the academy first," Dai Mubai said with a grave voice.

However.

Ma Hongjun stood there, his face full of reluctance.

"Fatty, why aren't you leaving?"

Oscar frowned.

Ma Hongjun gave a bitter smile, "It's not that I don't want to walk away, but my legs won't obey me; they keep trembling. I can't even take a step."

Oscar: "...."

He knew Ma Hongjun was afraid of Qin Xiao.

Dai Mubai snorted, "Fatty, if you could take half the effort you put into thinking about women and use it to think about your problems, you wouldn't have so many worries."

"His Majesty the Thunder Emperor is a being of what caliber? He doesn't even consider you in his sight, okay? Stop thinking too highly of yourself."

He said irritably.

"Really?"

After hearing Dai Mubai's words, Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up, his face showing some joy, but soon turned into a look of despair.

"What's wrong now?"

Dai Mubai asked impatiently.

"Nothing."

Ma Hongjun sighed, "It's just that what you said is too true, making me feel like I'm a waste. In front of Titled Douluos, I'm just like an ant..."

"Fatty, I can describe you with one word right now."

Oscar patted Ma Hongjun's shoulder and then spoke.

"Handsome?" Ma Hongjun asked tentatively.

"Cheap!" Oscar dropped this word and quickly caught up with Dai Mubai's pace.

...

After a while.

When Dai Mubai and the other two arrived at the square, they found that they were the only ones missing.

Ironically, when Ma Hongjun saw Qin Xiao was also there, he tried his best to shrink behind Oscar.

But how could his wide frame be hidden?

He could only hide his head behind Oscar's back, a classic case of burying his head in the sand.

"Alright, now that everyone is here, I'll just say a few things briefly."

"First, all new students go to the guidance office and pay a hundred golden soul coins as tuition fees."

"Second, you'll have your first lesson tonight, so use the time in between to rest up and prepare. It's going to be a lesson unlike any other."

"Third, Ning Rongrong and Oscar, you two are exempt. You have an additional assignment, each of you run twenty laps around the village, and you can return to the academy when you're done. Oh, Tang San, you stay. The rest of you, go get busy."

Flander listed the items one by one.

In everyone's eyes, wasn't the first item just about extorting money?

Bearable.

As for the second item, what kind of lesson was it starting in the evening?

Curious.

As for the third task, others did not judge, but it caused Ning Rongrong's displeasure.

"This..."

"How can I possibly finish?"

Ning Rongrong couldn't help but speak up.

"You can use your support abilities," Flander added.

Support? Ning Rongrong was shocked, subconsciously looking at Oscar. Rely on him?

"Ning Rongrong, don't worry. Once you've eaten my sausage, not to mention running twenty laps, even two hundred laps wouldn't be a problem."

"Hehehe..."

As Oscar spoke, he couldn't help but laugh smugly, then he mumbled a lewd spell, "I've got a big tasty sausage..."

Then, a pink sausage appeared in his hand.

yue...

Ning Rongrong felt disgusted, and a look of resolve flashed through her eyes, "I, Ning Rongrong, would rather be exhausted to death, starved to death, than eat that sausage."

But no one paid attention to her.

They each went their own way.

Qin Xiao also wanted to leave.

Actually, he wasn't very interested in how Soul Land would develop in the future.

Because, as long as you are in this world, you are just pawns of the Asura God, the Sea God, the Rakshasa God, and other deities of the Divine Realm.

Even powerhouses like Shrek, Martial Soul Hall, and the Hao Tian Clan are no exceptions.

What he wanted to achieve was the freedom that extends beyond Soul Land, a freedom that even the Divine Realm's Deities couldn't constrain!

Gaining strength was the only thing he had to focus on now.

After all, this is a world where the strong prey upon the weak. If you are powerful enough, what can't you have? Rights, women, anything!

However.

Just as he was about to walk away, the System's mechanical voice rang out:

[Ding, a side quest has been released...]
