Now, Yu Xiaogang's treatment was concluded, and Flender immediately raised an eyebrow at Ma Hongjun, the meaning self-evident.
Ma Hongjun instantly got goosebumps all over, but for the sake of his life, he could only quickly strip off all his clothes.
He lay flat a meter away from Yu Xiaogang.
"Teacher, you—"
"Ah ah ah——"
Ma Hongjun hadn't finished speaking when Flender swiftly brought the feather down.
"Teacher, you didn't even ask if I was ready!"
Ma Hongjun was on the verge of tears, he could only bear the pain and swallow the candy bean, which made him feel a little better.
He no longer wanted to experience the pain of a broken groin a second time!
Next was a long hour of waiting; they needed to wait for the wound there to completely heal, meaning for the flesh to fully grow back and fixate, before the next step of the operation could proceed.
The continuous shouts from Yu Xiaogang and Ma Hongjun inside the tent made Tang San and the others' scalps tingle. Just thinking about that part being completely removed made their hair stand on end.
Especially Dai Mubai; if he hadn't happened to stand up earlier, he probably would have ended up like the two of them, which made him wonder.
"Little San, you think, could those two 100,000-year Spirit Beasts have been intentional, intentionally making Grandmaster and Fatty lose that part? If I hadn't been so lucky, I'm afraid…"
Dai Mubai said with lingering fear.
"That shouldn't be the case, should it? Why would those two Spirit Beasts target us for no reason? It should have been a coincidence."
Tang San said after a moment of contemplation.
"Hmph, it's better if they hit!"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Dai Mubai with a disgusted expression.
"You! Zhu Zhuqing, I've tolerated you for a long time, don't go too far!"
Dai Mubai had already been enduring a lot of hardship, and coupled with this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest where he almost lost his life, his long-suppressed emotions finally erupted.
Endure?
Why should he endure?
He was the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire!
And Zhu Zhuqing was just a member of the Zhu family; in terms of status, he was still superior!
Initially, when Zhu Zhuqing caught him in the act, he felt a bit guilty, and coupled with Zhu Zhuqing traveling thousands of miles from the Star Luo Empire to find him, his behavior had been restrained.
But in Zhu Zhuqing's eyes, it seemed as if he was afraid, or had something to ask of her?
Ridiculous!
He had only thought that it would be best if they could get along harmoniously, as the compatibility for their Spirit Fusion Skill would be higher then. But now, it seemed he had been too lenient, and they thought he was a sick cat!
"What? Feeling guilty?"
Zhu Zhuqing's tone remained icy.
She had now come to terms with it; rather than hoping Dai Mubai would change for the better, it was better to focus on improving herself.
This academy, it was fine not to stay. She would find an opportunity to leave later.
Dai Mubai made a move, wanting to step forward. He wanted Zhu Zhuqing to know who was truly relying on whom!
Zhao Wuji, nearby, chose to close his eyes and feign sleep. This was their private matter; as long as no one died in the end, it was fine.
Seeing that the two were about to clash, Oscar and Tang San also came to Dai Mubai's side.
"Boss Dai, don't be impulsive!"
In this situation, neither of them wanted any other incidents to occur.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes grew even colder when she saw Dai Mubai actually stepping forward.
"Are you enraged?"
"Zhu Zhuqing! Don't you think I'm afraid of you! If it weren't for you coming all the way from the Star Luo Empire, do you think I'd give you a good look! How have you treated me these past few days? Do you really think I have no temper?"
Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, not wanting to argue with Dai Mubai.
And Ning Rongrong, seeing Dai Mubai about to lash out at Zhu Zhuqing, instinctively wanted to step forward to stop him.
But then she remembered what Xiao Tian had told her earlier, and she immediately calmed down.
Yes, she was just a support system Spirit Master; even if she stood up for Zhu Zhuqing, it wouldn't be of much use, and might even bring unnecessary danger upon herself.
Ning Rongrong's eyes darted around, and she called out coldly to the sky: "Are none of you coming out yet? Father sent you to protect me, not to watch a show here!"
"If I tell Father and my two grandfathers what happened on this trip to the Star Dou Great Forest, what do you think will happen?"
"Come out now and take responsibility for guarding, perhaps that can give you a chance to make amends!"
As Ning Rongrong spoke, everyone present fell silent, even the originally enraged Dai Mubai stopped, his eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.
Tang San was slightly surprised. There were actually people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School around, and he hadn't even noticed!
However, considering Ning Rongrong's status in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, everything made sense.
His Purple Demon Eye was currently only at the subtle stage, so it was perfectly normal for him not to detect the surroundings.
A few seconds after Ning Rongrong finished speaking, six figures dressed in Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School attire suddenly appeared on the scene.
The six knelt on one knee respectfully, their heads slightly bowed: "Please forgive us, Miss!"
At this moment, cold sweat dripped from the six. Was this still the young lady they remembered?
When Ning Rongrong secretly ran away from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and made her way to Shrek, she hadn't noticed anyone following her.
But now, they felt that Ning Rongrong seemed to have become even smarter?
The leader was the same person Sword Fifteen had seen before.
He knew that Ning Rongrong, after Xiao Tian's reminder, had discovered their existence while at Shrek, but he hadn't expected that at this moment, Ning Rongrong would still think of them!
"Just now, our group was attacked by two 100,000-year Spirit Beasts, why didn't you appear? My father and my two grandfathers sent you to follow me to ensure my safety, didn't they?!"
Ning Rongrong now seemed like a changed person, completely adopting the demeanor of a superior.
The leader spoke respectfully: "Miss, that… that was because, although you were no match for the 100,000-year Spirit Beasts at the time, you were not in danger. The six of us wanted to find a suitable opportunity to take you away.
After all, you should also know that the strength of a 100,000-year Spirit Beast is terrifying. Among the six of us, five are Spirit Saints and one is a support system Spirit Emperor. Even with his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's amplification, it would be extremely difficult to rescue you directly from the hands of two great Spirit Beasts…"
The leader explained in an orderly manner. The six of them had indeed wanted to find a suitable opportunity to rescue the unconscious Ning Rongrong alone, but they never expected that Xiao Tian would be the one to step forward in the end, and successfully allow the young lady and the others to retreat.
Therefore, they were no longer needed, and the six of them also breathed a sigh of relief. Facing two 100,000-year Spirit Beasts, it was certainly false to say they weren't afraid.
