The Star Train's Journey Through the Heavens

Chapter 33 Zhu Zhuqing Drops Out of School

The next day, Shrek Academy.

Zhu Zhuqing was focused on cultivation and didn't care much about external things, so she didn't have many things. She quickly cleaned them up and put them all into her storage soul tool.

"Zhuqing, what did you do last night? Why didn't you come back with everyone?" Zhu Zhuqing's dormitory door was pushed open, and a girl in a blue dress walked in.

The girl looked at Zhu Zhuqing's empty dormitory and asked in surprise, "Zhuqing, what's going on?"

"Rongrong, I'm planning to drop out of school. I've had a great time getting to know you. Hope we meet again someday," Zhu Zhuqing said with a light smile.

Zhu Zhuqing used to always have a cold face. After being classmates for so long, this was the first time Ning Rongrong had ever seen Zhu Zhuqing smile. Her whole demeanor seemed slightly different from before.

"No, so suddenly? What happened to you last night? Why did you drop out of school for no reason?" Ning Rongrong was shocked.

Although Meng Huaifeng casually told Zhu Zhuqing about their origins, Zhu Zhuqing wasn't foolish enough to go around spreading rumors.

Zhu Zhuqing didn't mention what happened last night, but instead avoided the main point, saying, "You should know what kind of academy this is. As a normal person, what's wrong with wanting to drop out?"

Shrek Academy's propaganda can fool those ignorant commoner soul masters, but it's all a loophole for those with background and knowledge.

Dai Mubai stayed at Shrek Academy because he didn't care about living a carefree life, and Ning Rongrong stayed there just for fun.

"No...no problem." Ning Rongrong was momentarily speechless, then suddenly ran out of the dormitory shouting, "Something terrible has happened! Zhu Zhuqing is dropping out of school!"

Shrek Academy wasn't very big to begin with, and it wasn't long before everyone rushed out.

"Ning Rongrong, what did you say? What do you mean by dropping out of school?"

Why did she drop out of school?

"What happened?"

Everyone surrounded Ning Rongrong, bombarding her with questions.

Zhu Zhuqing walked out of the dormitory at a leisurely pace, stretched, and showed off her beautiful figure to the fullest, not at all like a child who was only twelve years old.

"Zhuqing, is what Rongrong said true? You're going to drop out of school?" Xiaowu ran up to Zhu Zhuqing and asked.

"Mm." Zhu Zhuqing nodded gently.

"Why do you want to drop out? Is there something the academy has done wrong?" Flander asked seriously.

"No, the academy has done very well within its own capabilities." Zhu Zhuqing gave Shrek Academy some face, but it was still clear that she was implying that Shrek Academy's conditions were terrible.

Flander's face darkened slightly, but he patiently advised, "I know a little about your relationship with Dai Mubai. Did that kid Dai Mubai upset you? Don't worry, if Dai Mubai dares to mess around again, I'll break his legs."

Dai Mubai retorted, "I've been very well-behaved these past few days and haven't had any sex!"

"It has nothing to do with Dai Mubai, I just wanted to leave on my own." Zhu Zhuqing no longer cared about Dai Mubai.

"Where can you go if you leave? Even if other places are better than here, how much can they improve your strength?" Dai Mubai said irritably. He had already cut off all ties with his old flames for her sake, so why was she still making a fuss?
"That's none of your concern. Dean Flander, I hope you can approve my withdrawal application." Zhu Zhuqing didn't even glance at Dai Mubai.

"I disagree. Zhu Zhuqing, don't be impulsive. Think it over carefully. If you have any problems, tell us and the teachers will help you solve them. Don't keep talking about dropping out." Flander planned to smooth things over and suppress the issue for now, hoping that he would change his mind in a few days and let it go.

"Dean Flander, I'm just informing you that I will be leaving today, whether you agree or not." Zhu Zhuqing's attitude was very firm.

"No way!" Dai Mubai slammed his hand on the wall, his eyes red as he glared at Zhu Zhuqing. "I won't allow it! Stay here obediently!"

"What I want to do is none of your business," Zhu Zhuqing said disdainfully to Dai Mubai. "I am your fiancé!" Dai Mubai retorted aggressively.

"When you abandoned me and ran away, did you not remember that I was your fiancé?" Zhu Zhuqing sneered.

"What are you doing? Do you want me to kill all those women before you're satisfied? I'm warning you, if you keep this up, even if I win, you won't have a good ending!" Dai Mubai threatened.

"I told you, what I want to do is none of your business."

"You say it's unrelated and that's it? Go ask the Star Luo Empire if they agree!"

"Then you don't need to worry about it."

Seeing that Dai Mubai seemed unable to deal with Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San stepped forward and said righteously, "Zhu Zhuqing, you're just leaving like this without any reason. Do you think you've done right by the months of training your teacher has given you? A teacher for a day is a father for life..."

"That's enough, Tang San. The academy didn't train me for free; I paid tuition." Zhu Zhuqing interrupted Tang San.

Tang San's face instantly darkened.

"Hmph, I don't care what you think, I won't allow you to leave, so you can't leave!" Dai Mubai said domineeringly.

"What if I insist on leaving?" Zhu Zhuqing squinted, already poised to strike.

“You can give it a try.” Dai Mubai summoned his martial spirit.

The teachers at Shrek Academy watched silently. No one intervened. They wouldn't personally stop Zhu Zhuqing from leaving, but since Dai Mubai was her fiancé, it was none of their business if he tried to stop her.

The master had long been considering participating in the Continental Elite Soul Master Academy Tournament. Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai's Martial Soul Fusion Skill was one of their key trump cards for advancing, and they absolutely could not afford to lose it!

In the grove west of Shrek Academy, Meng Huaifeng looked at March 7 smugly and said, "See? I told you so. It won't be so easy for Zhu Zhuqing to leave."

"I underestimated the academy's limits," March 7 said speechlessly. "I never expected that after dealing with people from this academy three times, they would all be on the opposite side."

“We are universally recognized as good people, so this can only prove that there is something wrong with the people in this academy,” Xing concluded.

"It's time to make a move," Meng Huaifeng reminded them.

"Hmph, that scumbag wants to bully Sister Zhuqing? He'll have to get past me first." March 7th pointed at Zhu Zhuqing, and a shield enveloped her.

"Huh? This is it?"

The Shrek Academy students were all stunned when they saw the shield on Zhu Zhuqing's body.

This shield looks familiar...

"Sister March?" Zhu Zhuqing exclaimed in surprise.

"I've only ever heard of teachers trying to persuade students to stay when they want to drop out. This is the first time I've ever seen a teacher forcibly keep someone in school. I've really learned something new today."

The four members of the pioneering team emerged from the woods, Meng Huaifeng said as they walked.

"It's you!"

The expressions of everyone at Shrek Academy changed drastically.
