Chapter 101: Sorry for the Intrusion, Your Highness!

"What?"

"The City of Slaughter?"

"Are you saying that these eight children also trained in the City of Slaughter?"

Meng Shenji, Zhilin, and Bai Baoshan were utterly shocked as they looked at Flender. Seeing Flender nod, they felt as if their worldview had been turned upside down.

As Contra-level soul masters, they had heard of the infamous City of Slaughter. It was rumored that the only way to survive was to pass through the Hell Road. Those who succeeded would gain a domain known as the Killing God Domain!

Now, Flender was telling them that these children had entered the City of Slaughter and were standing before them alive.

What did this mean?

It meant that the eight children before them had all obtained the Killing God Domain!

Breathless, Meng Shenji, Zhilin, and Bai Baoshan turned to Prince Xue Xing. They spoke earnestly, "Your Highness!"

Prince Xue Xing understood their meaning and said, "Forget it, Mr. Dugu. They have passed the assessment. Dean Flender, I am pleased to collaborate with Shrek Academy."

Flender was delighted and was about to shake Prince Xue Xing's outstretched hand when he noticed a gaze directed at him. Turning, he met Mu Chen's eyes and refrained from extending his hand.

Prince Xue Xing frowned and followed Flender's gaze, surprised to find it was Mu Chen. He felt a jolt; it seemed like Mu Chen, not Flender, was the decision-maker in Shrek Academy!

Sure enough, Mu Chen said calmly, "Prince Xue Xing, I'm sorry. Your Heaven Dou Royal Academy seeks talent, but we at Shrek Academy aren't just talented—we are monsters."

Hearing Mu Chen's words, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others smiled and said, "That's right, we're all monsters!"

Uh!

Prince Xue Xing was dumbfounded. Was he being rejected? As the top academy of the Heaven Dou Empire, was he being turned down by these children?

"Dean Flender?"

Prince Xue Xing looked to Flender, hoping he would say something. He deeply regretted his earlier rudeness. Nine! Nine individuals possessed the Killing God Domain. If they allowed these nine to grow, what need would the Heaven Dou Empire have to fear the Spirit Hall?

Flender did not hesitate. He respectfully bowed to Prince Xue Xing, "I'm sorry, but I believe Mu Chen has made it clear. Your academy seeks talent, but we are monsters. We've come to the wrong place. Sorry for the intrusion, Your Highness!"

Uh!

Prince Xue Xing was still in disbelief. Flender, who had previously fawned over the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, was now rejecting cooperation based on a student's opinion.

Prince Xue Xing stared at Mu Chen.

Mu Chen first had Tang Yuehua apprentice under him. Then he became a sworn brother to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. Now, despite being a student, he was dictating the actions of an academy dean.

Prince Xue Xing felt a strange sensation, as if everything revolved around this young man. He had a premonition that the future belonged to this youth!

"Let's go," Flender said calmly.

"Grandpa!"

Before Mu Chen could respond, a sweet voice came from the entrance.

Everyone turned to see a girl with purple hair and triangular snake eyes run to Dugu Bo's side.

The girl wore an off-shoulder short dress, looking very seductive. Despite her young age, her feminine features were fully developed, especially her slender waist, which was extraordinary.

"Yan Yan, you've made progress," Dugu Bo lovingly patted his granddaughter Dugu Yan's purple hair.

"Huh? Why are you here?"

In Dugu Bo's embrace, Dugu Yan's eyes fell on Mu Chen.

"You know him?" Dugu Bo asked, surprised.

"Grandpa, he's Mu Chen," Dugu Yan glared at Mu Chen.

"What? It's him?" Dugu Bo frowned.

Since Dugu Yan returned from Suotuo City a year and a half ago, she seemed like a different person. Even without Dugu Bo's supervision, she diligently trained.

Initially, Dugu Bo thought it was a good sign—his granddaughter had matured and was striving for her future.

However, three months later, a maid informed Dugu Bo that Dugu Yan often muttered a name, Mu Chen, in her sleep, repeatedly saying, "Mu Chen, if you dare do this to me, I'll kill you! Ah… don't… it hurts!"

When Dugu Bo questioned Dugu Yan, she remained silent. He had to ask Yu Tianheng to find out.

From Yu Tianheng, Dugu Bo learned the whole story. His granddaughter had been humiliated!

Furious, Dugu Bo went to Suotuo City, but by the time he reached Shrek Academy, it was deserted. Despite turning Suotuo City upside down, he found no trace of Mu Chen.

With no choice, Dugu Bo temporarily set the matter aside.

Now, he never expected the person who had wronged his granddaughter to be standing before him.

"Let's go. Thank you, elders, for your kind offer," Flender, sensing Dugu Bo's fury, wished to leave quickly. Mu Chen was Shrek Academy's pillar, its treasure. If anything happened to Mu Chen here, Flender would never forgive himself.

"Leave?"

Dugu Bo moved to block their path, his eyes like a viper's, fixated on Mu Chen. "Not so easy."

Flender frowned, bowing to Dugu Bo, "Senior Dugu, what advice do you have?"

Dugu Bo pointed at Mu Chen, "You may leave, but he must stay and apologize to my Yan Yan."

Yan Yan?

Flender looked at Dugu Yan.

Flender's heart sank. Without Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong, he lacked confidence in facing a Titled Douluo. He continued respectfully, "Senior Dugu, if he has offended you, I apologize on his behalf."

Dugu Bo remained unmoved, "Spare me the talk. Boy, cut off your ten sinful fingers, and I'll spare your life."

"Grandpa!" Dugu Yan cried out.

Hearing Dugu Bo's demand for Mu Chen to sever the fingers used against her, Dugu Yan's heart unexpectedly throbbed. Despite wanting revenge, she didn't want Mu Chen harmed.
