After saying that, he took the lead and ran forward.

The group quickly followed, their footsteps fading into the distance on the road to the Star Dou Great Forest.

Chapter 159 The Speechless Ma Hongjun

As evening approached, Wang Teng and his group finally completed their 500-mile journey, traveling from Shrek Academy all the way to the Soul Hunter Town on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Standing at the entrance of the town and looking into it, one can see a constant stream of Soul Masters coming and going.

This town is much bigger than the one Wang Teng saw outside the Soul Hunter Forest before.

This place, though called a small town, is actually more like a small city.

Looking around, its scale is more than three times larger than Shrek Academy.

"Oh, let's hurry up, I'm starving, we have to have a good meal later."

While rubbing his stomach, Ma Hongjun sniffed the aroma of food wafting through the air, looking like a greedy dog.

"Fatty, how dare you eat like that? Don't you even look in the mirror and see how fat you've become? If you keep eating like this, you'll turn into a ball sooner or later."

Xiao Wu teased from the side.

Ma Hongjun immediately objected, retorting, "How can you blame me? My figure is a side effect of my 'evil fire,' what does it have to do with my love of food?"

Seeing that the two were about to argue again, Wang Teng quickly interrupted them, saying, "Alright, alright, stop talking and let's go."

"It's getting late, don't go too late and there won't be any seats left."

After speaking, Wang Teng took the lead and walked forward, and the others followed.

Although the sun had not yet completely set, the town was already brightly lit, with lanterns lit in the shops on both sides of the street, making the whole street brightly lit.

"Fatty, didn't you say you've been to the Star Dou Great Forest several times? Which is the best restaurant in this town?"

As Dai Mubai walked, he looked around at the restaurants and eateries on both sides of the street and asked curiously.

As soon as this was mentioned, Ma Hongjun immediately perked up and began to talk at length about the town's delicacies, which restaurant had which dishes, and which restaurant had the most unique signature dishes, speaking with great enthusiasm.

Before long, they arrived at a restaurant on the south side of the town.

This restaurant isn't the biggest in town, but according to Ma Hongjun, its signature dishes are the best in town.

"Fatty, we'll see what your taste is like today."

Ning Rongrong stood at the entrance of the restaurant, looking at the signboard above her head, and said with anticipation.

Afterwards, Wang Teng and his group followed the waiter to a table in the lobby and sat down.

Before Ma Hongjun had even settled into his seat, he started ordering, saying, "Boss, one of each of your restaurant's signature dishes!"

The waiter looked a little embarrassed and explained, "Sir, we have more than twenty signature dishes. Are you sure you want them all?"

"Enough with the nonsense, let's get started. Do you think this is my first time here?"

Ma Hongjun waved his hand, and the waiter had no choice but to take the order.

Xiao Wu looked around and praised, "This place looks alright, but I wonder if the food is as good as Fatty said."

"Don't worry, Xiao Wu. Fatty's greatest skill, besides being a womanizer, is eating."

Dai Mubai said with a smile.

And so, the group started chatting, one after another.

Wang Teng picked up the teapot on the table and poured a cup of tea for Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing beside him: "Rongrong, Zhuqing, have some tea."

The two men took the teacups, smiled at him, and said, "Thank you."

Dai Mubai witnessed this scene.

At this moment, Dai Mubai's heart suddenly skipped a beat. Although he and Zhu Zhuqing were still in a cold war, Dai Mubai's gaze had never left Zhu Zhuqing.

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing smile at Wang Teng, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

Zhu Zhuqing usually had a cold face towards Dai Mubai and showed little expression to others, but now she actually smiled at Wang Teng.

Although they had only poured a cup of tea and it wasn't a big deal, Dai Mubai still frowned and secretly kept it in mind.

"Boss, are there any rooms available?"

Just then, a shout came from the doorway, drawing Wang Teng and the others' attention.

Eight people walked in through the door. The first seven were young people, six men and one woman, and the last one was a middle-aged man.

All eight of them were dressed in moon-white robes, with a blue ring embroidered on their left shoulders, containing two characters—Canghui.

They are from Canghui Academy.

Wang Teng recognized their origins and felt inexplicably irritated.

Logically speaking, since they set off a month later than originally planned, Canghui Academy should have finished hunting souls and left long ago. How could they still run into each other?

Could this plot really have the power to be corrected?

If that's the case, it will probably be difficult for him to stop Tang San from obtaining the Eight Spider Lances.

"Oh, it's Lord Shi Nian!"

The restaurant owner quickly came out from behind the counter and said happily, "Gentlemen, please rest assured, your previous room is still reserved for you, the usual place."

"By the way, congratulations to all the Soul Hunters on your return!"

The middle-aged man (Shi Nian) walked in and said somewhat arrogantly, "Sure thing, bring us some food. We've been running around all day and we're hungry."

"Please, please."

The boss led them to a table not far from Wang Teng and his group and arranged for them to sit down.

At this moment, Ma Hongjun's eyes wandered in that direction and quickly settled on the girl from Canghui Academy.

"Brother Dai, look! That girl is really good-looking, with a youthful face and big breasts. These guys from Canghui Academy are quite lucky with women."

Ma Hongjun spoke quite loudly, so the people from Canghui Academy naturally heard him.

One of the young men, who looked like the team leader, suddenly flew into a rage and slammed his fist on the table.

"boom!"

"Whose dog got off its leash and ran away? It's spewing filth all over the place!"

The captain stared at Ma Hongjun, his words dripping with hostility.

Who are you talking about?

Ma Hongjun jumped up, glaring at the person, ready to start a shouting match.

Seeing this, Wang Teng quickly stood up and pulled him aside, saying, "Fatty, Fatty, sit down first, don't cause trouble."

Although Ma Hongjun was unhappy, he still had to give Wang Teng face, so he reluctantly sat back down.

Wang Tengchong cupped his hands in greeting and said with a smile, "My friend, I'm sorry, my brother here doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut. What he said just now was wrong."

"I apologize to you on his behalf. This meal is on me. Let's just consider it as making friends."

The captain snorted and said, "Keep your men in check. If you can't, I won't mind taking over for you."

After saying that, he sat back down.

Wang Teng returned to his seat, nudged Ma Hongjun, and scolded, "Fatty, apologize to them, and this will be over."

Unexpectedly, Ma Hongjun looked unconvinced and asked, "Apologize to him? Those good-for-nothings from Canghui Academy, do they even deserve my apology?"

Wang Teng was stunned when he heard this; he could hardly believe it.

Wang Teng said speechlessly, "No... Fatty, it was clearly your foul mouth that caused this. The other person didn't provoke you. What's wrong with apologizing?"

Chapter 160 The Unlucky Canghui Academy

Wang Teng genuinely couldn't understand Ma Hongjun's thought process.

Before his time travel, Wang Teng found this part very strange, as if the Shrek Seven Devils were deliberately picking a fight.

Now that he has experienced it firsthand, he finds it even more outrageous.

At this moment, Ma Hongjun explained with a smug look, "Wang Teng, you've only just come to our academy, you don't know our rules yet, do you?"

Wang Teng had a bad feeling and asked, "What rules?"

Ma Hongjun and Oscar said in unison, "The dean said that those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre!"

At this moment, instead of showing any fear, the two of them both had expressions of eager anticipation.

They seem to be eager for a fight.

Looking at them, Wang Teng couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

So he covered his head and said, "Are you two crazy?"

"Wang Teng, why are you so agitated? At worst, we'll just fight them."

"Canghui Academy is nothing but a useless academy."

Dai Mubai added fuel to the fire, saying dismissively.

"That's right, let's fight if we want, who's afraid of who?"

Tang San also joined in the commotion.

Wang Teng tried to reason with them, saying, "No... why did you fight with them?"

"This was clearly the fat guy's fault. An apology would have been enough to settle things. Why did he have to fight with the other side?"

"Our rule at Shrek Academy is to side with your own people, regardless of who's right or wrong."

Dai Mubai put his arm around Ma Hongjun's shoulder and spoke with a straight face.

These words made Wang Teng laugh in anger. He blurted out instinctively, "Side your relatives, not reason? When you abandoned Zhu Zhuqing and ran away, why didn't you think about helping your relatives?"

What the hell did you say?

Dai Mubai's expression changed instantly, and he grabbed Wang Teng by the collar.

"Dai Mubai, what are you doing?"
