Chapitre 698: Chapter 94 Ambush_2
```
But this did not prevent him from feeling some warmth in his heart.
Elder Ma did not know what Qin Xiao was thinking inside, his eyes were fixed on Yan Shaozhe all along.
Seeing hesitation on Yan Shaozhe's face, he sneered, "I had thought that the exchange student program was an opportunity for both academies to engage in learning without any reservations. Now, it seems I was wrong, only our Sun-Moon Royal Academy has been open..."
He sarcastically mocked Yan Shaozhe without mincing his words, a look of disdain on his face.
Director Du Weilun's face turned from green to white due to Elder Ma's stinging sarcasm.
He knew that even if this was indeed the case, he could not admit it.
What would become of Shrek Academy's reputation if word got out?
"Please do not accuse us wrongly, our Shrek Academy has been completely open about this exchange program."
"If you claim to have no reservations, why the hesitation?"
"Hahaha, you must be joking."
Yan Shaozhe laughed and said, "It's not hesitation, it's just that your requirements were so unexpected, I was shocked.
Just as Director Du said, we fully support this exchange program without any reservations. We do not have double standards here at Shrek Academy; any of our books are available for you to peruse at will. It's just that the students have only entered the academy today and we haven't had the chance to take you to the library yet."
"Oh?"
Elder Ma first let out a surprised "oh" as if caught off guard, and then he too laughed, "Then I apologize for speaking out of turn. Haha."
"It's all right, no harm done." Yan Shaozhe waved his hands dismissively, indicating it was no issue, and went on to arrange, "It's too late today, and some things have happened. In a while, Director Du will arrange for you to rest first, and tomorrow morning we'll assign you a new class. How about visiting the library to read the books by noon tomorrow?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Ma nodded with satisfaction, "That seems reasonable."
...
"Teacher, teacher, there's been an incident."
A student rushed into Class 2 of the first year, panicked.
The homeroom teacher of the first year's second class, standing at the podium in a pencil skirt and black stockings, Mu Jin frowned, "What are you talking about? Here I am, perfectly fine. Hurry back to your seat; class is about to start."
The student shivered with fright and sheepishly shrank his neck, "Teacher, you misunderstood, I didn't mean you were in trouble, but that someone else is. I was just in a panic when I said it."
Upon hearing this, Mu Jin's expression changed slightly, "Just say who it is, and quickly get back to your seat. Class has already started."
The academy's announcement had been posted on the playground, and she hadn't seen it yet because she had been teaching all along.
"It's about the homeroom teacher of the first class, Zhou Yi, Teacher Zhou... She's been expelled from the academy?"
"What did you say?"
After hearing the student's words, Mu Jin's voice rose sharply and her eyes showed shock and disbelief.
"Teacher, I'm saying, Teacher Zhou has been expelled."
Mu Jin turned serious instantly, "That joke is not funny. It seems that I have been too lenient with you normally, allowing you to dare joke about me."
Seeing that Mu Jin didn't believe him, the student became anxious and immediately raised his hand, swearing solemnly, "Teacher, I swear. I'm not lying to you. The academy has already posted the announcement; this news will be known by everyone soon."
This time, Mu Jin believed.
"Zhou Yi, that crazy woman, really got expelled?"
Mu Jin believed it.
And no one answered her because the students all understood that there was no need to reply; Mu Jin was talking to herself.
Sure enough.
Moments later, Mu Jin burst into delightful laughter, "Hahaha, fantastic, really fantastic. Zhou Yi, that crazy woman, has been domineering and unchecked in the academy for too long. Now she's finally faced retribution. Hahaha."
The feud between her and Zhou Yi was not new.
For instance, when her brother joined Shrek Academy, she had entrusted him to Zhou Yi to avoid conflicts of interest, expecting that as colleagues, Zhou Yi would take care of her brother out of respect for her. Little did she imagine, Zhou Yi, that crazy woman, expelled her brother just after a few days...
Yes.
That's right.
Her brother had been expelled by Zhou Yi.
When Mu Jin first heard the news, she was utterly dumbfounded.
Shouldn't the world of Soul Masters involve some basic human decency?
From then on, their enmity was firmly established.
It took a while before Mu Jin's laughter ceased.
By then, tears had started to stream down from the corners of her eyes.
```
"Sorry, as a professional teacher, under normal circumstances, I wouldn't laugh like this. Unless... I really couldn't hold it back, haha."
Mu Jin tried to keep a straight face, hoping to regain some of her dignity, but when she inevitably thought of Zhou Yi, she couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Awesome!
Too awesome.
Thinking about it, she felt every pore in her body relax.
Living another ten years wouldn't be a problem.
Mu Jin looked at the student and asked, "Tell me, what exactly happened to Zhou Yi? Why was she dismissed?"
"Well..." The student hesitated.
He pondered, the notice didn't specify why that crazy woman Zhou Yi was dismissed.
Mu Jin's question was really beyond what was publicly known.
"Forget it, you're just hemming and hawing, I'll go look for myself."
With a huff, Mu Jin made her comment and rushed out of the classroom after the students were set to self-study.
Because she moved so quickly, she appeared as a blur to everyone and disappeared from their sight with a whoosh.
Everybody: "..."
Those who knew understood Mu Jin was heading to the playground to read the notice.
Those who didn't think Mu Jin was fleeing for her life.
...
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
Zhou Yi, shrouded in her large cloak, stepped out of Shrek City.
She kept her head down as she walked, fearing that someone might recognize her.
Fortunately,
Not a single person did.
Only after reaching a few miles away did she dare to stop, turning back to take one last look at the magnificent and distant city.
However, her eyes held no regret, only filled with hatred.
"Shrek City, Shrek Academy, after so many years of dedicated teaching, hard work, and notable contributions, you discard me just like that. Using me as a scapegoat to survive, huh?"
"You've done very well, exceptionally well. One day, I will make you all pay. When I, Zhou Yi, return to Shrek City, I'll make each and every one of you tremble with fear and beg at my feet."
Zhou Yi's voice was icy cold, her boundless hatred an invisible abyss, threatening to completely consume her.
She had no affection left for Shrek, only endless hatred and a desire for revenge.
Rustle rustle rustle.
Suddenly, a strange noise arose, reaching Zhou Yi's ears. Startled, she spun around, nervously surveying her surroundings like a frightened bird.
Then, her gaze fixated tightly on a certain spot, as if she sensed some ferocious beast lurking there.
"Come out, I know you're there," Zhou Yi called out coldly, "Stop hiding and sneaking around."
As her words ended, the sound of rustling came from the dense woods, and two people emerged.
They were two burly young men, appearing to be in their thirties.
From them, Zhou Yi felt a vicious aura.
"Soul Emperors!"
Her heart skipped a beat, and in that instant, she determined that both men were Soul Emperor level powerhouses.
"True to being one of Shrek Academy's elite teachers, even after leaving, our attempts to get close to you without being noticed still failed," one of the men said with a grin, clicking his tongue in wonder.
"Hahaha, Shrek is known as the Holy Land of Soul Masters, and the strong ones who come out of there are indeed different from us. Otherwise, why would our employer be willing to pay a high price for both of us brothers to take action together?" the other burly young man laughed heartily. Their relaxed demeanor contrasted sharply with Zhou Yi's tense state.
It was as if they were dealing with nobody of consequence, not even considering Zhou Yi on the level of a Soul Emperor.
The employer... they were assassins!
Zhou Yi's pupils contracted sharply, and she spoke in a deep voice, "You two are here to kill me!"
