8: Chapter 8 Ning Rongrong's Witch Nature, Su Ling Makes Her Move
In the morning, Flender returned from Soto City.
The plot was still following the same direction as in the novel, but the difference was that Su Ling had actively joined it this time.
"Su Ling, is your body really alright?"
Flender looked at Su Ling, feeling genuinely surprised.
Such a severe injury had actually healed so quickly, and the key was that he had also heard Su Ling easily defeated Dai Mubai yesterday.
Su Ling said: "It was those medicines you gave me, Dean; that's why I was able to recover so quickly."
Flender was stunned. Did those medicines have such powerful healing capabilities? Stronger than a Spirit Emperor healer?
After he had found a Spirit Emperor level Spirit Master to treat Su Ling, he hadn't sought out any other Spirit Masters, as even that healing Spirit Emperor had advised him to give up.
So, from then on, he had just bought some medicine for Su Ling, thinking it might have some effect.
Dozens of doses of medicine cost a total of three silver coins; it wasn't worth much money.
But these inexpensive medicines actually healed Su Ling?
Flender smiled and said: "Good, it was worth me spending nearly a thousand gold coins to buy you that medicine. It's good that you've recovered."
"What, you spent nearly a thousand gold coins! Dean, didn't you say before that those medicines only cost three gold coins?" Su Ling said.
"That was to comfort you. Telling the truth at that time would have affected your recovery. Since you have fully recovered, you will have to make up for these gold coins later; after all, this is the academy's funding." Flender said righteously.
Su Ling was speechless. Flender was indeed as cunning as in the novel; he had experienced it once again today.
After speaking, Flender looked at the eight people lined up at the academy, feeling very gratified.
Eight students; this was the most students the academy had ever had since its founding.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Flender, Dean of Shrek Academy. My Spirit is the Four-Eyed Owl, and my Soul Power is level seventy-eight."
"Alright, now what I want to say is..."
What Flender said was almost the same as what Su Ling had seen in the anime and novel.
After that came the physical training, running laps, but this time Su Ling was asked to lead.
Before lunch, run twenty laps around the entire village where Shrek was located.
One lap was three kilometers, so twenty laps was sixty kilometers. For a Spirit Grandmaster in their twenties, this was quite a significant challenge.
Among the eight, only Tang San did not go, as he had been called away by Flender alone.
"Everyone, follow me." Su Ling said.
"I will lead you for the first lap, and after that, you can proceed at your own pace. I will keep track of everyone's lap counts, so don't try to slack off."
Su Ling's speed was not fast, and he finished one lap with everyone shortly after.
Afterward, Su Ling slowed down. Once everyone had run far ahead, Su Ling also began to Cultivate using the Carefree Travel movement technique he had obtained from the System.
The System only gave him the movement technique but did not let him master it directly; he had to Cultivate it himself.
Just like that, Su Ling moved forward according to the method of the movement technique while keeping track of everyone's lap counts.
However, after running less than two laps, Su Ling noticed that Ning Rongrong was starting to show signs of rebellion.
He remembered that in the novel, Ning Rongrong snuck away while running laps, then went to Soto City to stroll through the commercial street, and only returned after eating and drinking to her heart's content.
Did Ning Rongrong really run away?
Su Ling decisively followed!
Just as Ning Rongrong was one kilometer away from Shrek Academy, Su Ling suddenly appeared and blocked her path.
"Ning Rongrong, you ran the wrong route. It's normal to make a mistake the first time; I'll take you back." Su Ling said with a smile.
"Brother Su, I..." Ning Rongrong felt a bit embarrassed.
"What's wrong?" Su Ling looked at Ning Rongrong with confusion.
"Brother Su, why do I have to train my physical fitness? I am just a support system Spirit Master; I don't need this kind of training at all. Even in the Sect, my father, Grandpa Sword, and Grandpa Bone have never made me train like this." Ning Rongrong said with a look of grievance.
"Is that so? Your Spirit is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda; you must be from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, right?" Su Ling said.
"That's right!" Ning Rongrong nodded.
"Then the Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone you mentioned earlier, could they be the two Titled Douluo, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo?" Su Ling asked again.
"That's right, my father is the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi." Ning Rongrong said with a proud look. Although she called Su Ling Brother Su, she looked down on him from the bottom of her heart.
"Actually, you are right; you don't need to Cultivate like this in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School." Su Ling said.
Seeing that Su Ling said so, Ning Rongrong said: "Then I'll go play for a while and come back when you all finish, okay? You can just say I've finished twenty laps. Hmm... I'll bring you something delicious back from Soto City."
She originally thought Su Ling would agree, but she didn't expect Su Ling to shake his head and say: "No!"
"Why?" Ning Rongrong asked, puzzled.
Su Ling said: "I admit, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is strong, and Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo are very powerful, but that is not an excuse for you to avoid training."
"Go back quickly; you must follow the requirements and finish twenty laps." Su Ling's expression suddenly became serious.
"What if I don't?" Ning Rongrong's spoiled temper flared up.
"If not? Then don't blame me for being impolite." Su Ling said.
"Let's see what you dare to do?" Ning Rongrong ignored Su Ling and tried to bypass him.
Su Ling grabbed Ning Rongrong's wrist and said: "Are you going back yourself, or should I carry you back?"
"You, you actually dare to make a move on me?" Ning Rongrong's temper flared up instantly.
In the System, Su Ling discovered that Ning Rongrong's favorability seemed to have changed.
[Ning Rongrong favorability: 10 (Temporary status - 1)]
What does temporary status of favorability mean?
Could it be that favorability can decrease!
However, according to Ning Rongrong's personality, she needs to be disciplined. As long as he can suppress her Young Miss temper, he should be able to gain something.
When treating every goddess, one needs to use different methods.
For Ning Rongrong, you cannot spoil her. The more you spoil her, the more such a Young Miss will look down on you. After all, everyone in her Sect lets her have her way.
Even if her favorability really drops to a negative number today, he still has to discipline Ning Rongrong.
"Su Ling, don't stop me. Believe it or not, I will have someone kill you." Ning Rongrong shouted loudly.
"Go ahead and shout?"
"I'm telling you, today you really must go back and finish twenty laps for me; not a single lap can be missed." Su Ling said with a stern face.
He pulled Ning Rongrong firmly and walked straight back.
"Let go of me, Su Ling!"
"One more shout, and I will take action." Su Ling turned his head and looked at Ning Rongrong coldly.
"If you have the ability, then do it!" Ning Rongrong seemed to have given up all caution; she didn't believe Su Ling dared to make a move on her.
However, the next moment, with a slap, Ning Rongrong immediately felt a burning sensation on her buttocks.
"You, Su Ling, I will kill you." Su Ling actually spanked her; even Ning Fengzhi couldn't bear to hit her like this.
"Are you going back to run properly or not? In the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, you are a Young Miss, but in the academy, you are just a student. Put away your Young Miss temper."
A slap sounded again.
"Ah!"
She was just talking earlier; besides, Su Ling also knew the power of her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
So she bet that Su Ling wouldn't dare to make a move, but she didn't expect Su Ling to be truly daring, and he didn't hold back.
"Fine, fine, I'll run, can't I just run?" Ning Rongrong thought to herself that a wise woman doesn't suffer immediate losses, and her mind began to think of various ways to deal with Su Ling.
"I will personally follow by your side to supervise you until you finish twenty laps."
Soon, Su Ling brought Ning Rongrong back onto the running route.
However, Ning Rongrong's speed was very slow, as if she was deliberately trying to annoy Su Ling.
Su Ling didn't say anything and just kept following. As long as Ning Rongrong was still running, it didn't matter if she ran a bit slower.
But this speed was really too slow. Everyone else finished the physical training of running laps one by one, while Ning Rongrong hadn't even finished half of the laps.
All of this was seen by Flender.
"You all go back and rest; they will continue running. If they don't finish before dinner, they won't be eating dinner either." Flender said.
"Zhuqing, let's go back!" Dai Mubai said.
Zhu Zhuqing didn't even look at Dai Mubai; her gaze was fixed on Su Ling and Ning Rongrong not far away, and she said: "I won't eat lunch either; I want to accompany Rongrong and Brother Su to finish."
"Then I'll go too." Xiao Wu also stepped out.
Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu both ran over. Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Oscar were speechless, but there was nothing they could do, so they had to follow.
Watching the eight people start running again, Flender nodded with a smile and laughed in gratification.
"Good, very good! It should be like this!"
