I've already become a Titled Douluo and now the System shows up?

"A new task?"

Qin Xiao halted in his tracks, instinctively glancing toward Ning Rongrong and Oscar.

Knowing the System's nature, he figured that this task was very likely related to these two unfortunate kids.

[Rookie, you are still very weak, and you need two capable friends by your side. Only then might you go further. Assistant Soul Masters are the best choice.

Task requirement: Help Ning Rongrong and Oscar personally complete Flander's trial in your own way.

Task reward: Ning Rongrong goodwill +20, Oscar goodwill -10.]

Hmm? System, are you sure with my current strength I still need to start from scratch to cultivate companions?

It's not that I'm being arrogant, but Qin Xiao felt that when he needed assistance, he could simply go to Ning Fengzhi.

A favor from an eighteen-year-old Titled Douluo, he believed Ning Fengzhi wouldn't refuse.

Thinking thus, he looked again at Oscar. He really wanted to ask the System if the decrease in goodwill was serious. Was this stuff considered a reward?

If goodwill decreased, what would Oscar do?

Well...

With Oscar's strength, he likely couldn't do anything...

Or rather, Qin Xiao wasn't too concerned about this issue.

"If you feel Dean Flander's task is truly too difficult, I can help you,"

Just as Ning Rongrong was feeling troubled, considering giving up on the trial. Qin Xiao's voice rang out.

"Your Highness, are you serious?"

Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up.

Meanwhile, Oscar's expression suddenly darkened.

Qin Xiao registered this scene but didn't pay it any mind.

"Let's go. We'll talk outside the Academy,"

Saying this, Qin Xiao led the way out of the Academy.

Ning Rongrong and Oscar followed closely behind.

"Slurp..."

At this moment, the fatty couldn't help but swallow his saliva enviously and said, "Oscar and that girl are lucky to get personal guidance from a Titled Douluo."

Indeed, not just Ma Hongjun, except for Xiaowu, who wasn't envious?

After all, that was a Titled Douluo, a mighty and elusive figure!

"Yeah, if that chance were given to me…"

Dai Mubai started to say but couldn't continue.

Behind him, a voice spoke up:

"Hmph, if you want to learn at Shrek Academy, then learn properly; if not, get lost!"

Undoubtedly, the speaker was Flander.

Immediately, the two ceased talking, shrank their necks, and quietly moved aside.

"Tang San, follow me,"

After speaking, Flander didn't look back at the others and strode away.

Tang San followed closely behind.

...

Elsewhere.

Qin Xiao had already led Ning Rongrong and Oscar outside Shrek Academy.

"Your Highness, as you know, we Assistant Soul Masters have weak physiques. How do you plan to help us?"

Ning Rongrong asked eagerly.

In her view, Qin Xiao must be planning to help them cheat, and then Flander would turn a blind eye, and that would be the end of it.

"It's quite simple. I have a method that can endlessly activate a person's potential. It's more than enough for you to complete the task before lunch."

As Qin Xiao said this, a relaxed smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Really!"

Ning Rongrong was overjoyed.

Beside her, Oscar also looked curious.

"Crackle!"

Qin Xiao snapped his fingers, and a spark of electricity flashed and disappeared in an instant.

The faces of Ning Rongrong and Oscar instantly turned pale.

"This…"

"You aren't going to…"

Both of them were stunned at the sight.

The image of Qin Xiao standing proud, bathed in thunder, involuntarily rose in their hearts.

Meanwhile, a chilling surge rushed from the soles of their feet to the crown of their heads!

Qin Xiao nodded and said, "That's right, it's by harnessing the Thunderous Force to stimulate your potential."

Hiss...

Ning Rongrong's face immediately turned deathly pale, "I, I think we should forget about it, okay?"

Oscar's face also lost all color, "Your Highness, I don't need it either. I think this amount of training is nothing to me. Don't believe me? Watch."

As he spoke, he grunted, bit into the large sausage in his hand, and then took off running as fast as he could.

Even rabbits would shed tears at that speed.

"I think I can manage it too."

As Ning Rongrong spoke, she also bent forward, exerting force and chasing after Oscar's figure.

But Qin Xiao wasn't satisfied with her speed. With a flick of his finger, a bolt of lightning tore through the air, striking directly at Ning Rongrong.

"Uh..."

Ning Rongrong cried out strangely, feeling an agonizing sourness and numbness all over her body, a sensation that made people long for death.

However, one must admit that her speed had indeed increased a lot from before.

"Right, my demand isn't high, just maintain this speed."

"If you can't maintain this speed, then let me help you."

Suddenly, Ning Rongrong heard this voice by her ear. She instinctively looked to her side, and there was Qin Xiao, surprisingly keeping pace beside her.

However.

Qin Xiao's leisurely appearance made Ning Rongrong realize just how vast the gap was between her strength and Qin Xiao's.

"What are you daydreaming about? You're slowing down!"

Just then, Qin Xiao flicked his finger again, and the lightning struck Ning Rongrong like a small whip.

"Aowuu..."

Ning Rongrong let out another piteous cry, quickening her pace once more.

"Is this guy a devil? Not even sparing the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect some dignity?"

"Then I..."

Oscar, who was running ahead, heard Ning Rongrong's cry and felt his heart nearly freeze.

But to avoid suffering himself, he summoned all the strength he could, running for his life.

...

Elsewhere.

In the Sect Main Hall of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect.

Seated on the throne facing south, the handsome and refined Ning Fengzhi quietly listened to a Seven Treasures Glaze Sect disciple's report:

"Sect Master, the young miss has entered Shrek Academy, but there is a Soul Sage stationed there, so I dared not probe too deeply."

At this, Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, "I am aware of this situation, you are not to blame. Continue to investigate and report back."

Having said this, he gestured dismissively.

Normally, the disciple should have left, but he remained in place.

"Is there something else?" Ning Fengzhi asked indifferently.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, apart from the young miss's situation, there has been a strange occurrence at Shrek as well."

The disciple from Seven Treasures Glaze Sect didn't quite know whether to consider this an incident.

"Go on," Ning Fengzhi said, furrowing his brows.

"It's like this. Our people saw endless thunder striking down on Shrek Academy in the middle of the night, and it lasted for quite a long time..."

"How long is 'quite a long time'...?"

"Several shichen..."

The disciple of the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect hesitantly said.

It all seemed too incredible to him as well.

There was silence for a moment.

Ning Fengzhi ordered, "Continue to watch over the young miss's movements."

"Yes!"

Upon hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, the disciple from the Seven Treasures Glaze Sect hurried off.

At the same time, a figure rushed in frantically.

It was an elderly man with white hair and beard.

"Fengzhi, are you really comfortable with Rongrong being out there on her own? What kind of run-down school is Shrek? Could it possibly teach better than us? I'm going to bring Rongrong back. I don't feel at ease with her out there."

With that, he carelessly sat down on a chair next to Sect Master Ning Fengzhi.

He seemed to mean he would not leave unless Ning Fengzhi agreed.

However.

To his surprise, Ning Fengzhi actually nodded, "Indeed, I have been negligent. Shrek Academy might very well have a serious issue. Uncle Jian, your arrival is timely; come with me to Shrek."
