The last whisper of wind in the Star Dou Great Forest died.
Dai Mubai's furious roar—dripping with possessiveness and humiliation—still echoed faintly among the trees.
Every member of Shrek Academy watched as Ning Fengzhi slowly, very slowly, turned his head.
It was so slow…
One could see every twitch of muscle on his refined face.
His gaze swept across the crowd—
Cold.
Sharp.
Venomous.
Two steel needles dipped in poison.
His eyes finally locked onto Dai Mubai.
Behind him, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo moved like two statues coming to life—
Empty-faced, deathly cold.
Their eyes fixed on Dai Mubai as well.
Ning Fengzhi spoke.
"What did you say?"
His tone was calm.
Too calm.
But Flender and Zhao Wuji heard something beneath that calmness—
The silence before a mountain collapses.
Before a tsunami devours the shore.
Their scalps tingled.
Their bodies locked up.
Cold sweat rolled down their backs.
But Dai Mubai?
He felt nothing.
He was immersed in his rage and his wounded male ego.
To him, Zhu Zhuqing was his fiancée—
His future Crown Princess—
His personal property.
Now that "property" had run away, grown stronger, and even sided with another man?
Unforgivable.
Hearing Ning Fengzhi's question, Dai Mubai felt even more emboldened.
He took a step forward.
"School Master Ning, it seems you've been deceived as well."
He spoke with the self-righteous certainty of a fool.
"What senior expert? That's complete nonsense!"
"That bitch Zhu Zhuqing only became stronger because she got lucky and found an Immortal Herb!"
Ning Fengzhi didn't respond.
He didn't need to.
Dai Mubai interpreted the silence as interest.
And so, like a donkey gaining confidence, he brayed louder.
"So-called Immortal Herbs are heaven-defying treasures. One of them can change a person's destiny!"
"That Zhu Zhuqing broke through to Spirit Elder because of an Immortal Herb!"
Flender and Zhao Wuji's hearts were beating like war drums.
Their eyes screamed shut up, but Dai Mubai was too absorbed in his fantasy to notice.
"School Master Ning, think about it—if that bitch got an Immortal Herb so easily, then the shop owner must have plenty more!"
Dai Mubai's eyes burned with naked greed.
He lowered his voice conspiratorially, as if sharing a profound strategy.
"I can contact my imperial father—the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire. If we join forces with your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School—"
"We can go capture that shop owner!"
"Torture him!"
"Forcing him to cough up every last Immortal Herb!"
"After that, won't all those opportunities belong to us?!"
He finished speaking.
Then waited.
Expecting praise.
Ning Fengzhi smiled.
And clapped.
Clap.
Clap.
Clap.
In the dead-silent forest, the applause sounded like coffin nails being hammered shut.
Flender and Zhao Wuji nearly stopped breathing.
This wasn't approval.
This was a funeral march.
"Good."
Ning Fengzhi nodded slowly.
"What a Star Luo Empire.
What a Shrek Academy."
"Truly…"
His smile twisted.
"Full of talent."
Dai Mubai puffed out his chest proudly, utterly oblivious to the fact that he was standing at the edge of a cliff.
He even opened his mouth, ready to discuss profit sharing—
Ning Fengzhi didn't let him finish.
"Uncle Sword."
He didn't raise his voice.
He didn't roar.
He simply said:
"Cut off one of his arms first."
What?
Dai Mubai froze.
Shrek's students froze.
Even Tang San blanked out.
Sword Douluo didn't even move from his spot.
He simply extended two fingers together—
Like a sword—
And casually swept the air.
There was no bright light.
No spirit ability roar.
Just a faint, cold flash.
Then—
Pshk.
A clean sound of flesh being severed.
"AHHHHHHHHH—!!!"
Dai Mubai's scream tore through the night sky.
His right arm flew up—
Spinning through the air—
Blood spraying like crimson rain—
Before falling onto the grass with a dull thud.
The severed cut was smooth as polished jade.
Dai Mubai collapsed, shaking violently, clutching the bleeding stump.
"My arm! My arm!!!"
His voice cracked from terror.
Everyone from Shrek turned pale.
They felt the forest grow colder—
As if death itself had pressed a blade to their necks.
Ning Fengzhi walked toward the wailing Dai Mubai.
His footsteps were slow.
Precise.
He stood above him.
Looking down like one would look at filth on the ground.
"Trash."
He spat out the word like poison.
"And you dare…"
His voice dropped to a chilling whisper.
"…to talk about that senior?"
He didn't look at Dai Mubai again.
He turned—
And paced slowly like a beast circling its domain.
His gaze landed on Flender.
"Flender."
"I originally thought your 'Monster Academy,' though harsh, would at least temper Rongrong."
"I was wrong."
"So wrong."
His voice rose sharply.
He jabbed a finger toward the Shrek group.
"Look at the kind of things your academy produces!"
He pointed at Dai Mubai.
"A royal piece of garbage—blinded by lust and rage—who doesn't even know the meaning of death!"
He pointed at Oscar.
"A toad dreaming of eating swan meat!"
He pointed at Ma Hongjun.
"A brothel-frequenting fat chicken who has nothing but women in his head!"
Finally.
His finger slowly lifted—
Toward the direction Xiao Wu had fled.
"And even…"
"A Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast—living among you unnoticed."
Then he looked at the final person.
Tang San.
The only one who had not spoken.
Not defended Xiao Wu.
Not denied anything.
Ning Fengzhi smiled coldly.
"And you—"
He pointed directly at Tang San's heart.
"You lived with a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Beast for six years…"
"Yet remained perfectly unharmed."
His voice dropped to an icy whisper.
"I am beginning to wonder…"
"…whether you are a Spirit Beast too."
