Douluo: Twin Origins, Suppressing the World

Chapter 110 I got kicked? That's great!

After leaving the pass, Ling Shuang went straight back to the outer courtyard.

"Is that the Great God Ling Shuang?"

"The Great Goddess Ling Shuang has returned from her cultivation!"

"Why does my idol look even more handsome now!"

"Sigh, it seems that the great goddess Ling Shuang doesn't know yet. I wonder what she will think when she finds out."

"It must be uncomfortable, after all, no one would feel good in this situation."

"..."

As soon as Ling Shuang arrived at the outer courtyard, she could clearly sense that the way the students were looking at her was strange.

Listening to those discussions, he became even more puzzled.

What exactly happened during the days he was practicing meditation?
With some doubt in her mind, Ling Shuang casually walked over to a student and politely asked, "Excuse me, what happened?"

Seeing the handsome man walk up to her, the female student blushed and her heart pounded uncontrollably.

This was the first time she had ever seen her idol so close!

Such fair and perfect skin!
"I want to touch it..." The female student stared blankly at Ling Shuang in front of her, and unconsciously blurted out her innermost thoughts.

Hearing her murmured words, Ling Shuang's expression stiffened.

No, he just asked a question: does this require selling one's body?
The female student then realized what she had just done. Her already flushed face turned even redder. Overwhelmed with emotion, she stammered, "My...my god, I...I didn't mean that. I just wanted to touch you, I didn't really want to touch you..."

Ling Shuang frowned slightly. For a moment, he even doubted whether there was something wrong with his comprehension. "Do you want to listen to what you're saying?"
The female student realized her actions were a mess, her mind already a jumbled mess due to her intense emotions.

What am I even saying?!
"Don't explain, I understand." Ling Shuang quickly stopped the female student from continuing to explain.

Looking at the child's face with its veins almost completely dilated, he was really worried that the child would faint on her own, so Ling Shuang directly interrupted her attempt to continue explaining.

He raised his hand, and a faint, emerald-green light transformed into a thin thread that probed into the female student's body.

The female student felt as if she were in a warm embrace, and her emotions, which had been completely out of control, began to calm down slowly.

Seeing that her expression gradually returned to normal, Ling Shuang withdrew her power.

"Ling..." The girl wanted to speak, but Ling Shuang raised her hand to stop her.

"Let's not talk about what just happened. Can you tell me what happened instead?"

"Mmm." The girl nodded slightly, her face lowered. After what had just happened, she no longer dared to look Ling Shuang in the eye.

The girl explained in a soft voice, "Great God Ling Shuang, didn't you know? The academy said that because of your cultivation, they removed you from the list of those who advanced in the selection competition and made someone else take your place..."

After speaking, the girl raised her head, glancing at Ling Shuang's expression out of the corner of her eye, seemingly afraid that he was too angry and ready to appease him at any moment.

But to her surprise, Ling Shuang didn't show anger as she had expected; it seemed...

I'm even a little happy?
The girl initially thought she was seeing things, after all, how could anyone be happy about something like this?!

In fact, she wasn't wrong; Ling Shuang was indeed quite happy. He hadn't really wanted to represent Shrek Academy in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament in the first place.

The reason he won that selection competition was simply to give himself an extra advantage in his future cultivation at the Golden Ancient Tree.

However, to his surprise, Mu En agreed to let him enter the Golden Ancient Tree to cultivate because of Xuanzi's matter.

When he emerged from seclusion this time, he actually still planned to help Shrek Academy win the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament. Although he had already achieved his goal and the Golden Ancient Tree had not been harmed, he had still benefited from it and had already eliminated others. At least he had a beginning and an end, and he wouldn't overturn everything just because he had achieved his goal.

Now that Shrek Academy has actually taken the initiative to remove him from the reserve team, Ling Shuang is overjoyed and would never be angry.
"Is that all?" Ling Shuang's voice became exceptionally cheerful.

He thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be nothing.

Seeing that her crush wasn't upset, the girl's initial indignation on his behalf lessened considerably.

She then recounted what happened next.

"Yes, after you and Wu Feng left the team, Senior Jiang Nannan and the others must have been very angry about the academy's actions, so they all chose to leave the team."

"None of the current reserve team members were selected from the original selection competition; they were all selected from the academy afterward."

At this point, the girl lowered her voice, glanced around, and only continued cautiously after making sure there were no academy teachers present: "Because of this, many students in the academy are dissatisfied with the academy and feel that the academy is unfair."

"Some people had even taken this to the college's higher-ups to file a complaint, but they ended up dropping out of school on their own."

"Although it was said to be voluntary, everyone knew what was really going on, so after that incident, everyone just talked about it in private and didn't dare to make a fuss."

Ling Shuang was slightly taken aback upon hearing the girl's words.

He wasn't surprised by Shrek Academy's actions; it aligned with his impressions.

Ling Shuang hadn't expected that Wang Dong'er and the others would all voluntarily withdraw.

Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong'er, and Wang Qiu'er are understandable, but Ling Shuang did not expect Ning Tian and Xiao Xiao to voluntarily withdraw.

Although, judging from what the girl said, Wu Feng should also be among those immediately assigned by the academy besides himself, based on his impression of Ning Tian, ​​the girl didn't seem like the type to voluntarily withdraw because of this.

It seems he was too superficial. Even people who value profit have things more important to them than profit.

As for Xiao Xiao, Ling Shuang really couldn't understand it. He and Xiao Xiao didn't have much interaction, so she shouldn't have voluntarily left the team.

Ling Shuang was not Xiao Xiao after all, and he simply couldn't understand Xiao Xiao.

"ok, I know, thank you."

Ling Shuang didn't take it too seriously. After saying goodbye to the girl, he turned and left.

He walked towards Jiang Nannan's dormitory, intending to meet his girlfriend whom he hadn't seen for so many days, but he heard Jiang Nannan's friend reply, "Nannan isn't in the dormitory; it seems she went to the Soul Fighting Zone."

Ling Shuang immediately realized that something must have happened, otherwise, given Jiang Nannan's personality, why would she go to the Soul Fighting Zone outside of actual combat training?
Without much thought, Ling Shuang hurriedly headed towards the Soul Battle Zone.

Meanwhile, a battle is underway in the Arena.
