章 64: Chapter 64: Change
...
"I'm annoying, right?"
Ning Rongrong suddenly spoke, leaving Oscar at a loss for words, not knowing how to answer this question.
"No, how could that be? You're so beautiful, it's impossible for anyone to dislike you! Others can't help but like you!" Oscar quickly responded, but then realized the implications of his words and blushed.
"Hehe..." hearing his words, Ning Rongrong chuckled self-deprecatingly.
"In fact, you like me, don't you?" Ning Rongrong casually said, but her gaze did not look at him, still fixed on the bright moon.
"Huh? Well, I... I... I..."
Her thoughts uncovered by Ning Rongrong, Oscar instantly panicked, his heart racing, his mind going blank, and he couldn't articulate his words clearly.
Ning Rongrong withdrew her gaze from the sky and looked at Oscar, observing him dodging her gaze.
Being naturally intelligent since childhood, how could she not perceive Oscar's feelings for her?
"In fact, you only like me because I'm pretty, isn't it?" Ning Rongrong casually said. It's not that she was conceited, but her appearance was really good, so it was normal for a young boy like Oscar, who was experiencing first love, to be infatuated with her.
"Well... um..." Seeing him flustered, Ning Rongrong averted her gaze again, continuing to look at the moonlit sky.
"I know that I can be very annoying. I've known it for a long time..." her eyes fixed on the night sky, Ning Rongrong murmured.
Starting from the person she met today, to later threatening the Dean of this academy, she noticed the peculiar look people gave her. Disgust, disdain, scorn.
Why? Why could they treat me like this? I am the princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!
Have you ever thought that those who flatter you with a smile on their faces, actually wish for your death!
Ning Rongrong recalled the words that man said to her today and thought of the times in her sect, where people her age would respectfully behave in front of her but call her "little witch" behind her back. She was well aware of all these.
Why was it like this?
Others fear the power behind you, not you yourself.
Yes! I am just a princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Thinking this, Ning Rongrong forced a smile.
She extended a hand, releasing her spirit power, a shimmering multicolored tower floating on her palm. The tower had seven layers, exquisitely beautiful and full of elegance, representing her martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Tower.
"Rongrong, you..."
Seeing Ning Rongrong's action, Oscar felt puzzled.
"It's really laughable, I used to take pride in this martial soul, but now, it feels ironic."
"It's only because of it that I've become who I am today, without this martial soul, I am nothing. He was right, I'm just someone who lucked into a good spirit."
Hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Oscar fell silent. He didn't know why the atmosphere suddenly became heavy, nor did he know what he should say now.
The two remained silent for a while, then Ning Rongrong suddenly spoke again.
"But you know what? I don't want to stay like this. I don't want people to hear the name Ning Rongrong and think of me as the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Sect Master. I want them to think of me as the reason why the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is glorious."
Saying this, a determined light glittered in Ning Rongrong's confused eyes.
She didn't want to be just a mischievous child who sneaked out of her home and returned home in defeat. Ning Rongrong wanted to be able to stand proudly and return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Learn to respect others?
With this thought, Ning Rongrong stood up and looked at Oscar beside her.
Oscar, too, was startled by Ning Rongrong's actions. Seeing her gaze fixed on him, his heart raced, feeling flustered.
Ning Rongrong stared intently at her classmate in front of her and took a deep breath.
Her change would start now.
Innerly chanting to herself, she bent down at a ninety-degree angle, bowing to Oscar.
"I'm sorry! Because of my bad attitude, you were punished by the Dean. I'm truly sorry!"
Ning Rongrong's voice was loud, almost shouting, but Oscar was shocked by her actions.
This... she actually apologized?
Oscar could hardly believe it. Could Dean Flender's teachings be this effective? This was just too miraculous!
"It... it's okay, I don't mind," Oscar stammered, feeling a bit lost.
"Do you forgive me then?" Ning Rongrong raised her head to look at Oscar, her face now flushed red, with sweat dripping down her forehead, clearly visible under the moonlight.
"Y-yes, I forgive you," Oscar said quickly, avoiding eye contact as he answered.
"Thank you for forgiving me! I will change, and I will make you all recognize me. I will prove that I am qualified to stay at Shrek!"
Ning Rongrong smiled confidently at Oscar and then turned to leave, heading back to her dormitory.
So beautiful...
Oscar saw Ning Rongrong's confident smile, under the moonlight, she appeared like a fairy, captivatingly beautiful. It touched his heart, leaving him dumbfounded, standing still and watching Ning Rongrong's receding figure.

"Shrek, Shrek, where is this academy?" Zeng Yi walked on the road, muttering to himself, his gaze constantly scanning the surroundings.
The day before yesterday, after returning to the hotel, Zeng Yi was so mentally exhausted that he fell asleep and slept through the night until the next evening. When he woke up, he was still dazed. However, he noticed that all his injuries had healed, and he felt energetic and refreshed, as if his spirit had been rejuvenated.
Afterwards, he rushed to the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena to complete his work, earning those ten gold soul coins. With his opponent being a Soul Elder with a thirty-third level spirit power, Zeng Yi effortlessly defeated him and won a day's wage. He then remembered that he still owed Zhu Zhuqing money, but by then it was already late into the night. Thus, he decided to visit Shrek Academy the next day and also explore the scenery around Shrek.
Shrek Academy had quite a reputation in Suotuo City due to its magical enrollment requirements, tricking many people out of money. Forgetting about it was difficult!
Zeng Yi asked around for the location of Shrek Academy and followed the route to find it.
"Come out from the south gate of Suotuo City and keep going south, right?"
After walking for a while, Zeng Yi saw a village ahead.
"Is Shrek Academy in this village?" Zeng Yi became confused.
However, after recalling his memories of Douluo, Zeng Yi vaguely remembered that Shrek seemed to be located in a village.
Then let's go take a look!
With this thought, Zeng Yi quickened his pace, moving like the wind towards the village.
Soon, Zeng Yi entered the village and asked the villagers. Sure enough, Shrek Academy was located within this village, occupying about one-third of the area. With the villagers' directions, Zeng Yi quickly found the entrance of Shrek Academy.
Zeng Yi stood in front of the legendary gates of Shrek Academy, looking bewildered.
The entrance of this academy appeared to be haphazardly constructed with wooden planks forming an arch. Hanging on it was a crooked wooden plaque, visibly tilted. On the plaque, there were five distorted characters carved―Shrek Academy. Before the five characters, there was a greenish sketch of a creature that resembled a human-shaped head.
So this is the famous Shrek!
Zeng Yi's first impression of the gate was that it looked casual and shabby.
To be honest, even if he were to build a gate himself, it would be much better than this nearly collapsing one.
Such a school, Tang San and the others must have had a difficult life!
Zeng Yi couldn't help but exclaim.
