Douluo Continent: Shrek Prince, Getting to the Root of the Matter

"Bang!"

After the loud noise, Dai Huabin returned to the human-shaped pit he had made.

"Damn it! They're definitely trying to stop me..."

"Director Du...?"

Dai Huabin's rationality returned instantly, followed by a surge of immense fear. He finally realized what he had done.

"No! Director Du, let me explain! This guy provoked me first!"

"Shut up!"

Du Weilun raised his eyebrows and looked at Dai Huabin with disgust.

"Are all these classmates blind?! How dare you distort the truth like this! Do you think I, Tu Wei-lun, am a fool?!"

Dai Huabin, you attacked a classmate in public today and attempted murder. I will now take you into custody...

"Wait!"

Du Weilun was about to expel Dai Huabin from the academy when he was interrupted. He turned around angrily and his expression softened when he saw that the speaker was Yu Wudao.

"Wu Dao, is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Yu Wudao first nodded to Du Weilun, then said to Dai Huabin:

"Although Shrek Academy is strict in managing these kinds of incidents, the students are all ambitious geniuses, so it's inevitable that some bumps and bruises will happen."

So there are basically ways to salvage the situation...

Dai Huabin was delighted to hear this, but before he could say anything, Yu Wudao walked up to him, a mocking smile playing on his lips, and said:

"Here's what we'll do: go kneel down, kowtow three times to Wang Dong, apologize, and then we'll call it even. How about that, heir to the White Tiger Duke?"

"So, Wang Dong. Can you accept this?"

Although Wang Dong still felt that it was too lenient on Dai Huabin, she naturally had no objections since Yu Wudao had spoken.

Dai Huabin's face went from ecstatic joy to ashen, and then completely black. His expression changed three times in just a few seconds—he was practically a master of face-changing!

He clenched his fists tightly, crimson blood dripping from the gaps between them. His teeth were grinding together, even bleeding slightly, as if they were about to break.

Even so, Dai Huabin still held back.

He walked silently to Wang Dong with a cold face.

Without saying a word, he simply knelt down.

boom! boom! boom!

"I'm sorry! I was wrong!"

The onlookers were so astonished they couldn't close their mouths.

"Holy crap, Dai Huabin actually apologized!"

"As expected of the Little Demon King! There were rumors a while ago that the quality of this year's freshmen was exceptionally high, and that even the Little Demon King might not be able to run rampant. But now it seems that Dai Huabin, Xie Huanyue... are all just a joke..."

"Evil people will be punished by other evil people..."

"What's this? Why did Dai Huabin act like he was the most important person in the world when he was about to make a move, but now he's giving in so easily?"

……

"Clap clap clap!"

Yu Wudao clapped his hands, looking at Dai Huabin, whose expression had completely calmed amidst the laughter and whose eyes had turned cold, and praised him:

"As expected of a descendant of the White Tiger Duke! He's true to his word, showing some spirit! But it's a pity, compared to Dai Yueheng..."

He shook his head, wagged his index finger, and continued:

"Tsk tsk tsk! Still not quite there..."

Upon hearing this, Dai Huabin's calm demeanor was shattered once more. His face contorted, and he roared almost in a breaking voice:

"I know you! Yu Wudao! You've been running rampant in the outer courtyard just because you're a disciple of Shrek Academy!"

"Very well! You Shrek students are excellent! How dare you target me like this! Just wait, during the freshman competition, I will definitely make you pay for this tenfold!"

After uttering those harsh words, Dai Huabin fled the scene in a disheveled state, his forehead still bleeding.

Seeing that he had accurately hit Dai Huabin's lung, he laughed happily and explained to Wang Dong:

"Hahaha, look at him, all bristling! That's satisfying!"

Dai Huabin is a direct descendant of the White Tiger Duke's mansion. Even if he is expelled from Shrek Academy, he can still go to the military camp for training, but his chances of winning against his own brother will decrease.

But overall, it won't have a very serious impact on him, and... if you let him get away, how can you expect him to repay his debts so easily?"

A savage light flashed in Yu Wudao's eyes.

Wang Dong's heart trembled, as if struck by Yu Wudao's words, and a warm feeling welled up and spread throughout his body.

"Thank you, Wudao."

She said it sincerely.

Yu Wudao waved his hand and snatched the plate from Wang Dong's hand.

"Enough with the chit-chat, I'm starving! As a thank you, this meal is mine!"

Wang Dong stomped his foot angrily and said in embarrassment and annoyance:

"You bandit! I'm finally being sincere for once, can't you even read the room?!"

"..."

Chew chew chew

"Eat slowly! Nobody's going to take it from you! This was prepared for you in the first place!"

"..."

Chew chew chew

Wang Dong: "..."

"Eat, eat, eat! All you ever do is eat! You'll eat yourself to death!"

……

After a long while, Yu Wudao put down the plate that seemed to have been licked by a licker, raised his head and sighed deeply.

"It's alright, I'm leaving."

Wang Dong nodded and left the cafeteria with Yu Wudao.

Walking down the street, Wang Dong couldn't help but ask curiously:

"What did you do this afternoon? I didn't see you at all, and when you came back you looked like a starving ghost."

Yu Wudao glanced at her. "Are you lonely?"

Wang Dong's breath hitched, then he said calmly:

"I'm just curious. If you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. I have plenty of friends."

"Yeah?"

Yu Wudao looked at Wang Dong's flushed ears with a playful expression.

"Dai Huabin is a good person..."

He thought so.

"Of course! With my talent and good looks, where can't I make friends?"

Wang Dong stubbornly continued to argue.

"I hope so."

The two walked and chatted for a while and soon arrived at the dormitory building. Mu En was still refreshing the area at the dormitory building.

Yu Wudao was somewhat surprised by this, because the sun was almost setting, and he didn't expect Mu En to still be lying here.

However, this was exactly what he wanted, otherwise he would have gone to the inner courtyard to find Mu En later.

Now that the Life Gold has been secured, Mu En's health issues can no longer be delayed.

Yu Wudao stopped in his tracks. Wang Dong, who was on his right, took two steps forward and then, noticing that the person beside him was gone, turned around in confusion and asked:

"What's wrong? Why aren't you leaving?"

Yu Wudao pointed at Mu En and grinned:

"You go back to the dorm first, I have something to discuss with Limit Douluo."

Upon seeing this, Wang Dong's face quickly turned crimson.

Today's events made her realize that Yu Wudao truly held a certain status at Shrek Academy. It was fine for Yu Wudao to tease her in private, but now that someone had pointed it out in front of her, she instantly felt so embarrassed she could dig a three-bedroom apartment with her toes.

She dared not linger any longer and, blushing, rushed into the dormitory building as if fleeing.

After getting rid of Wang Dong and gaining a chance to be alone, Yu Wudao took out the Life Gold, grinned at Mu En, and raised an eyebrow, saying:

"Grandpa, let me stab you!"
