Douluo Continent: Tonight, a Fairy Tale Descends

His soul power began to surge uncontrollably, and the phantoms of the seven soul rings appeared and disappeared around him. The terrifying pressure, like a tangible tide, began to rise slowly. It was no longer the unconscious emanation it had before, but rather a clear and targeted force pressing down on Tang San, Cinderella, and Zhu Zhuqing.

"Today, I'll show you what a team is! What teammates are!"

"At Shrek Academy, you can have a temper, you can have a personality, and you can even disagree with each other! But..."

Zhao Wuji's voice suddenly rose in pitch.

"When your classmates or teammates are bullied by outsiders, as long as they are still members of Shrek Academy, you must stand up for them! Stand together! Even if they fight to the death behind closed doors afterward, that's our own business!"

"To stand by and watch someone die? There's no such rule in my team!"

The moment he finished speaking, a sharp glint flashed in Zhao Wuji's eyes!

"While I can't punish you like that, I can still let you experience the pressure of a Soul Saint!"

"You all need to reflect on your actions!"

boom!

A tremendous pressure, ten times more terrifying than before, like Mount Tai pressing down or a tsunami, erupted from Zhao Wuji's center.

This time, it wasn't the aftershock of the confrontation with Shi Nian before, nor was it the unconscious outburst of anger just now.

This was Zhao Wuji's deliberate control and condensation of a portion of his Soul Saint-level soul power and spiritual will, a true pressure specifically designed to teach these three disunited little monsters a lesson.

Tang San, Cinderella, and Zhu Zhuqing have a clear goal!

Of course, the oppressive aura inevitably affected Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar, but the main ones bearing the brunt were definitely those three.

The three people who were directly enveloped by the oppressive aura reacted differently.

The moment the oppressive aura descended, a hint of surprise flashed in Zhu Zhuqing's cold eyes, which then transformed into extreme anger.

She hadn't expected Zhao Wuji to be so domineering, punishing them in this way simply because they hadn't offered help earlier.

Why?

Why should she have to endure this humiliation for those two bastards, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun?

She came to Shrek Academy out of necessity, and during this time she had grown tired of and angry with everything there.

Now, even teachers are bullying people indiscriminately?

Zhu Zhuqing gritted her teeth. Under the overwhelming pressure, her delicate body trembled slightly. Her level 30 soul power was like a firefly compared to the bright moon in the face of this Soul Saint-level pressure, and she was powerless to resist it.

My knees were trembling, my bones were groaning, and my internal organs felt like they were being squeezed by an invisible hand, making it difficult to even breathe.

But there was no sign of submission in her eyes, only a cold stubbornness.

Just as she was about to collapse to one knee, Zhu Zhuqing suddenly raised her right hand. The seemingly ordinary black bracelet on her wrist gleamed slightly; it was her storage soul tool.

The next moment, a badge the size of a palm appeared in her palm.

At the center of the emblem is a lifelike black spirit cat, with two tiny purple gems set in its eyes, shimmering with a cold luster in the dim light.

The Star Luo Empire, the Zhu family, the direct bloodline badge.

Zhu Zhuqing pinned the badge to the left breast of her black leather jacket without hesitation.

Zhao Wuji, who was releasing his oppressive aura, froze for a moment when he saw the badge.

His eyes were fixed on the dark purple badge on Zhu Zhuqing's chest, especially the black spirit cat pouncing on the badge, and the two purple gems in the spirit cat's eyes that still shone with a ghostly light even under the pressure.

The Zhu family is scattered like stars.

The first agility-based beast spirit of the Star Luo Empire, the lineage of the Netherworld Cat.

A behemoth that has been linked to the Star Luo royal family, the Dai family, through generations of marriage alliances, and controls nearly half of the Star Luo Empire's military power.

Although Zhao Wuji was a fool, he was able to earn the fearsome reputation of the Immovable King in the Soul Master world. How could he really be a brainless idiot?

He instantly understood what Zhu Zhuqing meant.

I am a direct descendant of the Xingluo Zhu family.

You, Zhao Wuji, a Soul Saint who has opened a broken academy within the Heaven Dou Empire, are you sure you want to offend one of the most powerful and influential families in the Star Luo Empire to the death over such a trivial matter as student disunity?

Zhao Wuji's breathing faltered slightly.

Is he a bully who preys on the weak?

maybe.

But in this dog-eat-dog world of Soul Masters, those who don't know how to assess the situation and weigh the pros and cons have long since died without even leaving a trace.

Shrek Academy was already unpopular in the Heaven Dou Empire, and Flander was already overwhelmed with problems just trying to keep the academy running.

If we inexplicably offend the Xingluo Zhu family again...

That miser is probably really going to hang himself.

Moreover, Zhu Zhuqing displaying the clan emblem is itself a statement.

I don't submit to your control. I have my own background. If you push me any further, you'll face the consequences.

In a flash, Zhao Wuji had made up his mind.

His anger did not diminish, but rather intensified, because the feeling of being threatened by the student with his background made him even more unhappy.

However, the oppressive aura he released underwent a subtle change without anyone noticing.

The immense pressure that had been looming over Zhu Zhuqing receded almost entirely, like a receding tide.

Although it still made her feel heavy and had difficulty breathing, it was no longer at the point where it felt like it would crush her bones.

Zhu Zhuqing felt a lightness on her body. Although she was still enveloped by the oppressive aura, she was able to stand up with difficulty.

She raised her cold eyes and met Zhao Wuji's gaze.

In those amber cat eyes, there was no gratitude, only indifference, and a kind of scornful "I knew it" attitude.

Zhao Wuji understood that look, and his anger flared even more, yet he was helpless.

He could only unleash more of his anger and pressure on the other two students who had no connections.

Tang San, and Cinderella!

"Humph!"

Zhao Wuji snorted coldly, and when he turned his gaze to Tang San and Cinderella, the anger in his eyes had turned into a cold pressure.

Since we can't touch Zhu Zhuqing, we'll make an example of the two of you!

This is a perfect example to make an example of someone, showing everyone what happens at Shrek if you don't listen to your teachers or cooperate with your teammates!

In Zhao Wuji's opinion, Tang San and Cinderella were the best chickens.

During the entrance exam, although these two kids were incredibly talented and worked together seamlessly, even causing him to suffer a minor setback, it was mostly due to his underestimation of their abilities and the strangeness of their soul skills.

Afterwards, Zhao Wuji also thought that if he had been serious from the beginning and gone all out, these two little Soul Masters of the thirties would not have been able to last even an incense stick's time.

Chapter 277 has no background.

More importantly, during the past two weeks since enrolling, Zhao Wuji had secretly observed and inquired with Flanders.

Tang San and Cinderella came from a small place called Notting City, and were sent there by a theoretical master named Yu Xiaogang.

Who is Yu Xiaogang?

He is the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan's leader, but his martial soul has undergone a malignant mutation, leaving him a useless person stuck at level 29 for life.

Although he recently broke through to level 30 for some reason, in the eyes of a practical Soul Saint like Zhao Wuji, he is still an insignificant theoretical type.

What extraordinary background could the students sent by Yu Xiaogang have?

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect might show some leniency towards the two children because Yu Xiaogang is the sect leader's son, but they would never go to great lengths for their sake.

Moreover, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan's main power lies in the Heaven Dou Empire, and it has no direct conflict with Shrek Academy, where Zhao Wuji is located.

Therefore, in Zhao Wuji's mind, Tang San and Cinderella were two ordinary geniuses who were lucky, talented, and discovered by Yu Xiaogang, that theoretical fanatic.

Talented, but lacking connections.

There are far too many people like this in the world of Soul Masters. In the end, only one in ten will actually grow to the top.

If we don't smooth out their rough edges and teach them manners now, they won't even know how they died in the future.

"You two!"

Zhao Wuji's voice was deep and imposing, carrying an undeniable authority. His pressure was like a massive, tangible wave, crashing down on Tang San and Cinderella one after another.

"Why didn't you attack just now? Tell me!"

This time, the pressure was more concentrated and more violent than before!

If the oppressive aura that enveloped the three of them just now was a blanket suppression, then what is now targeting Tang San and Cinderella is a precise, continuous, and torturous dual pressure of spirit and soul power!

"Well……"

Cinderella let out a suppressed groan.

Her body swayed violently, her knees buckled, and she almost collapsed to the ground.

She gripped the table tightly with both hands, her knuckles turning white from the force, and fine beads of cold sweat appeared on her forehead, making it increasingly difficult for her to breathe.

Tang San, standing beside Cinderella, also felt his legs go weak the moment the pressure descended.

He kept his head down, his black, tousled hair falling down and obscuring most of his face, making it impossible to see his expression.

Only those hands hanging at her sides slowly clenched, her knuckles turning white from the excessive force, her nails digging deep into her palms, leaving crescent-shaped bloodstains.

At this moment, Tang San's heart was like a volcano about to erupt, boiling with suppressed anger to the extreme.

Why not take action?

Is there even a need to ask this question?

Those two good-for-nothings, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, flirted with others first and spoke arrogantly first, so they deserved to be taught a lesson!

Why should Tang San take action for someone like that?

If it weren't for Shrek Academy, and if it weren't for the fact that his sister still needed to study here, he would have even secretly helped that red-haired girl when she made her move, so that bastard Dai Mubai would suffer more!

And now

Zhao Wuji, this so-called teacher, doesn't distinguish right from wrong. Just because they didn't unite those two good-for-nothings, he wants to use the power of a Soul Saint to oppress them.
