Chapter 201: Conflict
The referee at the edge of the arena vomited for a long time before finally regaining his senses and looking at the two contestants.
This glance was all it took—Huo Wu, with her expression shattered, had passed out and collapsed. He hurriedly announced the result of the match.
"Shrek Academy's Tang San wins!"
Tang San let out a slight breath of relief; he was finally done facing this woman's ridicule.
Releasing his grip, Huo Wu seemed to lose her bones and crumpled to the ground, her fate uncertain.
Huo Wushuang, standing nearby, walked onto the stage with a frosty expression, lifted his unconscious sister, and carried her to the waiting area of the Blaze Academy. He then turned back to the stage.
His eyes were locked onto Tang San with a murderous intent, and his Soul Ring, the Infernal Flame Dragon Martial Soul, appeared behind him. Two yellow and two purple soul rings floated in sequence.
"Next, I will be your opponent."
His voice was cold as ice, causing Tang Shenwang to frown slightly.
Tang San thought for a moment, then glanced at the Shrek team's Big Wet. Seeing him smile and nod, Tang Shenwang stopped hesitating, turned to the referee, and declared.
"I forfeit!"
The referee nodded and then announced the final result of the match.
"Due to the last member of Shrek Academy forfeiting, this match is won by Blaze Academy!"
As soon as the referee's words fell, Huo Wushuang's defense collapsed. Had he come here for a victory? Now all he wanted was to kill that bastard, and this was the outcome?
"Bastard! You cowardly turtle, just give up like that? Do you dare to fight me?"
Tang San ignored Huo Wushuang's provocation and turned to walk off the stage.
"You've won. I won't accept a meaningless battle soul."
"You—"
Looking at Tang San's refusal to engage, Huo Wushuang felt as if a heavy punch had hit a cotton pillow. He gritted his teeth in anger but was helpless. He couldn't attack in front of the referee, or Blaze Academy would suffer.
With a resentful glare at Tang San's concealed back, Huo Wushuang could only clench his fists and return in the opposite direction.
"Wait for it. Don't let me run into you again."
Huo Wushuang muttered one last harsh sentence before rushing off to check on his sister's condition.
Tang San returned to the waiting area, where he was greeted by Ma Hongjun's fat face, full of admiration.
"San Ge, you're amazing, that victory was truly beautiful!"
In his eyes, this way of fighting—winning while gaining an advantage—was the most ideal.
Seeing the big thumbs up from the fatty, Tang Shenwang couldn't help but blush slightly, but his expression darkened a little afterward.
"Sorry, I couldn't secure the final victory."
Tyrone and the others quickly waved their hands, signaling that they had held the team back. Tang San had done his best.
Although they didn't fully approve of Tang San's victory method, as teammates, they couldn't bring themselves to dampen the mood when Tang San had already fought so hard to save some face for the team.
With the match between Blaze Academy and Shrek Academy over, there were no more interesting battles to watch.
Ning Bei led the smaller ones out of the arena. As they walked through the venue's exit, they saw Blaze Academy's group carrying Huo Wu, who was lying on a stretcher, to find a healing soul master.
Ning Bei silently apologized in his heart. If it weren't for the soul bones he had arranged for Tang Shenwang, this woman wouldn't have been humiliated so badly.
Thinking of the scene, Ning Bei couldn't bear to watch. From now on, Huo Wu would probably be pointed at wherever she went.
"Look, that's the beauty who was knocked out by the smoke on the arena!"
The little ones around him also watched Blaze Academy leave. Ning Rongrong shivered and rubbed her arms, then looked with lingering fear at Long Nianbing beside her.
"Nianbing, next time we meet them, just stuff a kitchen knife in their mouth for me. I never want to smell that toxic gas again."
Long Nianbing nodded in agreement and reassured Ning Rongrong.
"Don't worry, young miss. They won't get another chance to face us."
Just as they were about to reach their hotel, two figures, one white and one black, walked out of a clothing store.
Seeing the little kitten in the middle of the group, they immediately revealed a forced smile.
"Well, if it isn't my cute little sister? Looks like you've found a group of trustworthy companions?"
The fiery woman in black, Zhu Zhuqing's older sister, Zhu Zhuyun, looked at her with a mocking gaze, while Dai Weisi beside her wore a playful smile.
Zhu Zhuqing, who had been chatting with her sisters with a smile, immediately darkened her expression. Her hands clenched into fists, and she looked coldly at the detestable couple.
"Move aside!"
With just two simple words, Dai Weisi's face showed displeasure.
"Oh? It seems that after two years away from the Star Luo Empire, you've forgotten all your manners? Dare to speak to this prince like that?"
"No wonder you can't control your man. My third brother doesn't even want you anymore, how long do you think you can keep hopping around?"
The provocative words didn't stir any emotions in Zhu Zhuqing. She simply found these two annoying and planned to ignore them, signaling her companions to leave.
But while Zhu Zhuqing didn't want to bother with them, her two sisters couldn't stand the insult.
Ning Rongrong's eyes shifted, and she covered her nose, taking a few steps back, giving the little rabbit beside her a look of disgust.
"Xiao Wu, who's farting? It smells so bad."
The little rabbit understood immediately and quickly covered her mouth and nose.
"I smell it too, it must be some golden-haired tiger who hasn't brushed their teeth. It stinks! Let's get out of here quickly."
Their sarcastic remarks made Dai Weisi's face turn black. As the most powerful contender for the Star Luo Prince, how could he tolerate such an insult?
"You two are looking for death? Say that again if you dare!"
As Dai Weisi was about to act, the Star Luo guards who followed him surrounded them. At Dai Weisi's command, they would rush forward and tear apart anyone who insulted their master.
But before Dai Weisi could make a move, he suddenly felt an enormous pressure, as if a mountain was weighing down on him. Sweat beads appeared on his forehead.
Ning Bei gently tapped the ground with his toes, and the surrounding guards instantly turned into ice statues.
After snapping his fingers, the ice instantly turned into dust, scattering into the air.
Dai Weisi and Zhu Zhuyun stared dumbfounded at what had just happened, speechless for a long time.
"You have a problem with my insults?"
Ning Bei's voice snapped them back to reality, and he coldly gazed at them.
"Do you know who we are? How dare you…"
"If you say one more word, you won't exist anymore. Dai Tianyu can't protect you."
"Try me if you don't believe it."
Dai Weisi had originally intended to threaten Ning Bei with his status, but his words were abruptly cut off. His face darkened as if he had eaten something unpleasant, but he didn't have the courage to try again.
Feeling humiliated, he trembled with anger, and Zhu Zhuyun, sensing the overwhelming pressure greater than that of the Star Luo Ancestor, didn't even dare to look at Ning Bei anymore. The two of them stood there, unsure of what to do.
