Chapter 72: Dai Mubai Turned into a Girl
Soto City's Grand Spirit Arena.
After three months of "hellish" training under Yu Xiaogang, the seven Shrek students officially formed the seven-member team "Shrek Seven Devils" and began their team spirit battle journey in Soto City.
Just an hour earlier, the Shrek Seven Devils, relying on their outstanding talent and relentless effort, had defeated their first team opponent—the ferocious and brutal Mad Battle Team.
Among them, Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing were particularly outstanding.
Tang San executed the Tang Sect's secret arts from the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record to perfection, while Zhu Zhuqing was no less impressive—her lightning-fast speed and fluid, high-level battle techniques dazzled the crowd.
Adding to that, all the "two-on-two" battle teams previously formed by the Seven Devils had also achieved sweeping victories. A complete win, both in competition and cooperation.
"Cheers!" ×7
The Shrek Seven Devils raised their glasses in celebration, marking a successful start to their team battles.
"By the way, Rongrong, Zhuqing—where did you two go last night? Why did you return to the dorm so late?" Meng Yiran glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.
Zhu Zhuqing shot Ning Rongrong a glare, clearly warning her to stay silent.
Ning Rongrong's face paled. Recalling Zu Zong's domineering and cunning demeanor from last night, a chill ran down her spine. She waved her hand quickly, "N-nothing! Zhuqing and I just thought the room was stuffy and went out for some fresh air."
"Oh," Meng Yiran nodded, not suspecting anything. But after months of interaction, she had a constant feeling that Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong were hiding something from her.
They always acted mysterious, and even when they whispered together, Meng Yiran could never seem to join in. This left her feeling more and more frustrated.
When talking about Shrek, one naturally had to mention Dai Mubai and Tang San.
Over these months, with Meng Yiran by his side, Tang San seemed to have found new motivation. He trained even more rigorously than before, and just a few days ago, his spirit power had risen by one level—now at level 32.
This made the "Grandmaster" Yu Xiaogang extremely pleased. He often bragged in front of Flender and Zhao Wuji. In his mind, the fact that his student was improving so fast was all thanks to his brilliant theories.
After all, how else could he go around calling himself the "invincible in theory" master?
Of course, Yu Xiaogang's smugness didn't go unnoticed by Tang San's girlfriend, Meng Yiran. She was infuriated that Tang San's hard-earned cultivation was being used as credit for the same fraud who had ruined his first spirit ring. Their relationship quietly began to sour.
Tang San, blinded by love and rigidly following the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, remained completely oblivious.
As for Dai Mubai, among the seven, "his" transformation was undoubtedly the most dramatic.
Ever since Tang San performed that "major surgery" on him, Dai Mubai had thrown several tantrums at the beginning—he even wanted to fight Tang San to the death for cutting off his lower half.
Tang San wasn't afraid, but Flender wouldn't allow Dai Mubai to act recklessly. He locked him in the dorm, assigning teachers to watch over him around the clock.
A few days later, Dai Mubai's voice began to change. Gone was the masculine tone—instead, it took on a strange, androgynous pitch. He even developed a habit of sneaking into Ma Hongjun's bed in the middle of the night, touching and groping.
More than once, Ma Hongjun woke up to find his little phoenix being squeezed by Dai Mubai. It scared him so badly he ran straight to Flender to complain.
Left with no choice, Flender had Ma Hongjun move his bed into Tang San and Oscar's room. Only then did things calm down.
Creak. The box door opened. Yu Xiaogang entered holding a stack of documents, followed by Flender.
"Aiya, Master, you're here! Come drink with me!" Dai Mubai walked over, throwing his arms around Yu Xiaogang and rubbing his face against the master's sturdy chest.
"Ew." ×7
Including Flender, everyone in Shrek revealed complicated expressions. Their gazes were tinged with subtle disdain.
Yu Xiaogang's already stiff face turned green, his mouth twitching uncontrollably. Ever since Ma Hongjun moved out, Dai Mubai had redirected his attention to Yu Xiaogang, clinging to him like a lovestruck girl.
"Master, your stubble is so sexy!" Dai Mubai reached out to touch Yu Xiaogang's chin.
"Mubai, you…" Yu Xiaogang sighed heavily and shook his head.
Behind him, Flender patted his shoulder. "Xiaogang, just endure it for now. That incident must've been too much of a shock for Mubai. I believe he'll recover in time."
"Besides, as long as you coax him well, he'll be obedient and train hard."
Though Flender spoke with conviction, the smirk tugging at his lips revealed his schadenfreude.
Yu Xiaogang glared at him, wanting to refuse. But then he remembered—if he rejected Dai Mubai, Mubai might turn his sights toward Tang San.
He shook his head. That was unacceptable.
Tang San was his only hope of proving the strength of his "invincible theories." He couldn't allow any distractions.
Gritting his teeth, Yu Xiaogang said, "Mubai, sit down first. I have something to tell everyone."
Dai Mubai tugged on Yu Xiaogang's arm. "No no, I don't like that name. I want you to call me Baibai."
"B-Baibai…?" Cold sweat broke out on Yu Xiaogang's forehead.
This made everyone in the room burst into laughter. Who would've thought the once self-proclaimed womanizer Dai Mubai would fall to such a state—acting like a bashful little girl in love?
But then, recalling Ma Hongjun's previous ordeal, everyone's laughter froze into dread. Now that someone else was taking the heat, they had no intention of becoming the next "Ma Hongjun."
Ma Hongjun's beady little eyes lit up. As the first victim of Dai Mubai's affection, he was more than happy to see Mubai clinging to Yu Xiaogang now.
"That's right! Master, Boss Dai only listens to you now—go on, call him!" he urged gleefully.
Oscar also shuddered. Unlike the original timeline, Zu Zong's butterfly effect had spared the Shrek students from many hardships. He never had the chance to play the hero in the Star Dou Forest, so he still hadn't won over Miss Ning.
He definitely didn't want Dai Mubai latching onto him—especially not in front of Ning Rongrong. That would kill any chances completely.
With a serious face, Oscar said, "Master, we're counting on you."
Tang San chose to remain neutral. After all, it was he who performed the surgery on Dai Mubai. He certainly didn't want Mubai coming after him again.
As for Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Meng Yiran—the three girls all wore expressions of disdain and disgust from beginning to end.
Meng Yiran in particular was the most contemptuous—not just toward Dai Mubai, but toward Yu Xiaogang as well. In her heart, she cursed the old pervert for clearly having a thing for men.
Flender clasped his hands together and softly pleaded with Yu Xiaogang, "Xiaogang, please."
Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Forcing a smile onto his already stiff face, he said, "B-Baibai."
"So mean~!" Dai Mubai squealed in a flirtatious tone and threw himself into Yu Xiaogang's arms, softly pounding his chest with dainty fists—fists that nearly knocked the breath out of him.
Apparently, even if Dai Mubai had become a eunuch, his strength remained intact.
