Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Training Mission
Dai Mubai wasn't sure what to say about the situation. After all, he had gotten quite drunk in the end, so it would be easy to explain.
But at first, they did praise the fruit wine Xiao Tianyang brought as delicious.
The drinking method, though, was to keep pouring one cup after another without stopping, so it's no surprise that he got drunk.
When you think about it, even Tang San was like that. How could the others be any better?
Xiao Tianyang could only shrug. If it weren't for him last night, everyone would've spent the night in the cafeteria...
At that moment, Xiao Wu suddenly sat up and interjected, "But no matter what, Dai Mubai, it's wrong for him to bully his girlfriend. You can see that he's still a bit unconvinced."
"Ahem, in fact, you've misunderstood," Dai Mubai coughed awkwardly, then glared at Ma Hongjun and began defending him.
Xiao Tianyang thought nothing of it, as long as he didn't harass any innocent girl. He already knew about Ma Hongjun's situation—Mutated Martial Soul, Evil Fire Phoenix. If it was accurate, this martial soul could reach a first-class level. However, there was a major drawback: those with this martial soul tended to be overly ambitious!
When Xiao Wu heard this explanation, she scoffed. As expected, Shrek Academy accepted all kinds of weird people.
A trace of embarrassment appeared on Ma Hongjun's face. Although the situation had its reasons, it was still embarrassing to talk about.
"Don't be like that. After all, it's their choice, as long things aren't forced," Xiao Tianyang interjected, trying to smooth things over.
"Yes. We're in a relationship. It's not what you think." With the support of others, Ma Hongjun recovered quickly and felt a little relief.
"And you, Boss Dai, you're the least qualified to laugh."
"You," Ma Hongjun pointed at Dai Mubai, "You've got three dates a day, and none of the girls are the same. If I had your face, I wouldn't be like this."
"What's wrong with you? Why are shouting so loudly?" Dai Mubai lowered his voice. "Remember, don't bring this up again… Of course, I won't talk about you either."
Xiao Tianyang looked at Dai Mubai with some surprise. He knew he was a playboy but not of this level.
"In that case, let's call it even. If you don't mention my matters, I won't talk about your past anymore," Ma Hongjun said with an evil grin.
Dai Mubai snorted and turned to Xiao Tianyang. "Ignore him, let's go. I'll take you to the cafeteria to eat. If you don't hurry, we'll be late for the meeting."
Xiao Tianyang had already been to the cafeteria. That's where they had supper last night. But today, due to time constraints, Xiao Tianyang didn't cook himself, which made everyone feel disappointed—except for Ma Hongjun.
He wasn't idle at this moment either. After introductions, he quickly approached Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Saber. However, it didn't take long before he was defeated. He could only shake his head with a wry smile and keep quiet.
There was no point in trying. The three beauties—one was arrogant, one was cold, and the other was dignified and generous—only had eyes for Xiao Tianyang. How could they pay attention to him?
"Tianyang, what exactly did you give us to drink last night? My head is killing aching even now!" Ning Rongrong complained, covering her head and pouting, looking a bit cute.
Zhu Zhuqing beside her frowned as well. She didn't look well either.
As for Saber, she looked much better, though the strange thing was that she drank the most last night, but was the most fine this morning. Xiao Tianyang suspected that this was one of the benefits of having a strong physique.
"How about I make you a bowl of hangover soup? It'll ease the discomfort," Xiao Tianyang said, snickering in his heart. "Wait here."
With that, he stood up and headed for the kitchen, with Saber following closely behind. "I'll help you."
"Then let's go together." Xiao Tianyang didn't refuse.
In just ten minutes, Xiao Tianyang and Saber brought out two trays, each carrying seven large bowls of steaming hangover soup.
Xiao Wu, who had been lying on the table, immediately woke up when she smelled the fragrance. She opened her eyes and found a bowl of soup in front of her.
"Drink it. At least your headache will feel a little better," Xiao Tianyang said, looking at Saber who was happily eating.
"It's good," Saber smiled softly.
"Why not for me?" Ma Hongjun swallowed, looking at Xiao Tianyang.
"You didn't have supper last night, and your head doesn't hurt. Why do you want this?" Xiao Tianyang added. "And look at me—I don't have one either."
Ma Hongjun sighed. "If I could beat you, I'd hang you up and whip you! It's none of my business if you don't want soup, but why should I stop eating soup because of you?"
Of course, he couldn't say that. After all, the person in front of him was a handsome guy with a kind smile, a monster who could overpower Vice Dean Zhao and defeat him.
After drinking the hangover soup, everyone finally felt a little better and wasn't in such a miserable state anymore.
When it was time for the meeting, everyone lined up in the main square of the academy, waiting. After a while, a middle-aged man walked over and stood in front of them.
Xiao Tianyang narrowed his eyes and looked carefully. If he guessed correctly, the person in front of him was Flander, the dean of Shrek Academy, known as the "Four-Eyed Owl."
Flanders also looked at the group of new students. His gaze lingered on Xiao Tianyang for a moment, a little strange, before quickly shifting away.
Xiao Tianyang frowned. It must be the first time Flander had seen him, so why was there that fearful look?
Of course, if he knew that Miao Zhenshan had visited Shrek Academy on his behalf, he would probably understand Flanders' reaction. After all, Miao Zhenshan was a Level 97 Super Douluo, extremely protective.
If Flanders didn't want trouble, it was better to avoid antagonizing Xiao Tianyang.
"Indeed," Flander began, "I didn't expect this year to be an era of rough jade. We've had six new students join, which is the largest intake in Shrek Academy's history!"
But then his face darkened. "What's wrong with you today? You all look so lifeless and dejected. What's going on?"
Xiao Tianyang was speechless. Should he tell him they were hungover? Even though they'd drunk the hangover soup, it would take a while to recover.
But before he could respond, Flander gave an order: "Xiao Tianyang, take all of them and make them run around the village thirty times as punishment!"
"Huh? Why me?" Xiao Tianyang was confused. Shouldn't Dai Mubai be the one in charge of this?
"I said it's you. You'll supervise them, and make sure they finish the run," Flanders said sharply.
At that moment, the system's voice rang out:
