Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

Shrek Academy playground.

Flanders had been waiting impatiently for a long time, his face darkening with anger.

Today is the first day of school, and I must stand up straight in front of the little monsters.

The sound of footsteps rang out.

Led by Dai Mubai, Ao Yin, Xiao Wu, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, Tang San, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun arrived one after another.

The moment the person stood still, a loud shout rang out!

"I'm late!"

Flander's eyes flashed sharply as he swept over the crowd, showing no mercy whatsoever.

"Everyone, punishment! Run thirty laps around the entire perimeter of the village!"

"Don't stop until the sun sets! If you don't finish, no dinner tonight!"

He then turned his attention to the two support characters in the team.

"Oscar and Ning Rongrong are weak support-type characters, so twenty rounds should be enough."

"Dai Mubai, lead the team and start running! Now! Immediately!"

The order was given, and the entire room fell silent.

Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, Tang San, and Zhu Zhuqing were slightly taken aback.

The moment they entered school, they were punished with running laps without a word. Shrek Academy's rules are just too...ruthless.

Ao Yin remained expressionless, his heart unmoved. Shrek Academy did not tolerate idlers or pampered soldiers; the harsher the training, the more potential could be brought out.

Xiao Wu pursed her lips, somewhat surprised, but did not refute.

Zhu Zhuqing, with her cold demeanor, stood silently, waiting for the race to begin.

In contrast, Dai Mubai and the other senior students looked calm, even resigned to their situation.

Veteran students know that this is Dean Flander's old trick—to put down the arrogance of new students.

Anyone who gets into Shrek Academy must be a monster.

They all achieved fame at a young age, were ambitious beyond measure, and had a deep-rooted arrogance.

If we go along with their ways, the subsequent grueling training will be impossible to implement.

You won't know your own limitations until you experience some hardship.

If they don't sharpen their edge, these monsters will eventually become arrogant and disrespectful.

Therefore, on the first day, we must make an example of someone to scare others, and make sure everyone remembers:

Once you enter Shrek Academy, all your former glory is for naught!

Without wasting words, Dai Mubai charged forward.

Ma Hongjun and Oscar followed closely behind, familiar with the routine and already accustomed to this kind of training.

Ao Yin took a step to catch up, not slow at all. What would be torture for others was just basic polishing for him.

Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing were all moved, but Ning Rongrong remained unmoved.

She stood there, her face flushed red, her heart brimming with resentment.

Having grown up in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she is truly a favored daughter of heaven.

He was fawned over by thousands and treated with deference by everyone; he never suffered the slightest grievance.

Living a life of luxury and abundant resources, who would dare to say a harsh word to her?

He secretly ran away to Shrek Academy purely out of curiosity, wanting to escape the control of his family.

But when I got there, I realized this place was absolutely outrageous!

The area is desolate and wild, with dilapidated houses and courtyards; the environment is ridiculously bad.

On my first day of school, I was first teased by a strange upperclassman, and now I'm being forced to run as punishment!

On what grounds?

She is a support-type Soul Master!

They don't rely on physical strength to fight; they rely on rear-line output and amplification support!

What's the point of running yourself ragged?

This is absolutely insane!

Ning Rongrong grew angrier and angrier, feeling extremely frustrated.

She appears well-behaved, but her inner devilish nature can no longer be suppressed, and her eyes reveal her resentment.

What a crappy academy, what a monster cradle, it's all a lie!

Ao Yin, who was running ahead, had incredibly sharp senses.

He instantly sensed the girl's resentful attitude behind him.

He smiled knowingly, too lazy to point it out.

normal.

Greenhouse flowers, when suddenly exposed to wind and rain, will inevitably be unable to withstand it.

In the past, everyone was the center of attention; now, everyone is equal, and some even have to suffer hardship and punishment.

The difference was so great that it could crush a pampered young girl.

But no one can take this step for her.

Even if she is completely devastated and feels extremely wronged, it is a trial she should go through.

He knew perfectly well that this little devil, who had grown up being pampered by everyone, was never short of cheap kindness from others.

If you try to comfort or say nice things now, you'll just be taken for granted.

All that effort for nothing, and in the end all I got was a meaningless "good guy" label.

It's useless and not worth it.

"It would be better to wait until she's cried all her tears, feels completely broken, desperate and helpless, and then offer help when she's at her most vulnerable!"

Having figured this out, Ao Yin withdrew his gaze.

One lap, two laps, ten laps...

The sun was scorching, and the road was long and tedious.

Everyone gave it their all, sweating profusely and with aching legs.

Both new and returning students gritted their teeth and persevered; no one slacked off, and no one called for a halt.

In the blink of an eye, the sun set and twilight enveloped the village.

The trainees were exhausted, their legs felt like lead, and they stumbled back to the finish line.

Everyone gritted their teeth and ran the punishment route, each one covered in sweat, breathing heavily, and exhausted to the point of collapse.

Ning Rongrong, however, had already stopped by the finish line and was leisurely waiting.

Anyone with eyes can understand it at a glance.

She slacked off and gave up training halfway through, failing to complete even one of the twenty laps.

Flander's gaze swept over the girl, and his entire face turned completely cold.

His anger was suppressed, and his voice was icy cold.

"Ning Rongrong".

"Since you despise Shrek Academy from the bottom of your heart, then go back to your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

"Shrek Academy does not accept spoiled, unruly students!"

The atmosphere froze instantly after the angry rebuke.

Ning Rongrong clenched her small hands tightly, her pretty face filled with defiance.

She's always been someone who responds better to gentle persuasion than force. Flander's approach not only failed to scare her, but instead completely ignited her rebellious spirit as a little witch.

She immediately looked up and retorted without backing down.

"ill!!"

"I'm a support-type Soul Master, and you want me to train my physical abilities?! That's insane!"

"This isn't training, this is corporal punishment!"

Flander's eyes suddenly sharpened, and he said in a cold voice.

"It's none of your business to tell me what to do with Shrek's teaching methods!"

This is to train your survival skills and physical fitness; it's a survival skill you must master in escape and combat!

"In a life-or-death battle, every bit of extra energy increases your chances of survival! Someone like you, who's lazy in training, isn't the fastest runner, but the fastest to die!"

His tone was resolute, showing no softening whatsoever.

"If you can't accept it, then drop out of school!"

After he finished speaking, he turned to look at Dai Mubai.

"Mu Bai, pack this young lady's luggage and ask her to leave!"

"yes!"

Dai Mubai bowed and agreed, fully aware of the situation.

The dean is serious; there's no room for negotiation.

Oscar, who was standing nearby, immediately became anxious.

Finally, a girl who's also a support player has appeared, and she's a top-tier support at that.

Who would have thought that on the very first day of school, I would be expelled!

He was extremely anxious, but dared not utter a single word in front of Dean Flander.

Ning Rongrong's face flushed red. The grievances, pride, and resentment she had suppressed all day were completely exposed at this moment, revealing her arrogant little devil nature.

She raised her chin, her eyes full of arrogance, and shouted sharply:

"Flander! Think this through!"

"I am the proud daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School! I've always looked down on your dilapidated little academy! If I weren't hiding from my family, I wouldn't have come to this godforsaken place!"

"A mere Soul Saint wants to teach me? He'll have to ask me first if I'm even interested!"
