25 Chapter 20 - MONSTER! and Xingyun's Trauma

Today is the day that Shrek will accept new students, Dai Mubai is currently in the school entrance with the teacher who evaluates enrollees, acting as a bouncer. Xingyun and Bao'er didn't act as a bouncer too because their spirit ring configurations is too eye catching and they didn't want to be found by spirit hall, they are currently waiting on the path close to where the 4th test will happen, Xingyun wore a black beanie and he hid his two tails while Bao'er didn't even bother hiding her golden hair.

The entrance of Ning Rongrong, Tang San, Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing went according to the story, except for the fact that Dai Mubai, Tang San and Xiao Wu first met there, because Mubai didn't search for girls anymore and when Mubai saw Zhuqing even if his gaze on her is a bit complicated, it is not as much as in the story.

Dai Mubai led the 4 through the path to the 4th and last test to enter the school, while walking the 4 became curious about how many students the Shrek Academy has, "We currently have 5 students, originally we only have 3 but a month ago our dean brought a pair of siblings and they managed to enter because they managed to make our vice dean, who is a spirit saint helpless against them", Mubai explained.

"What? What rank are they right now and how old are they actually, to be able to make a spirit saint helpless against them? Monsters!", everyone was shocked by what Mubai said but Xiao Wu is the one who questioned Mubai.

"The older one is named Mao Xingyun, he is 12 this year, as old as you guys but he already reached rank 35 spirit elder, he is a very mischievous fellow, he's dodging and flexibility capabilities is unbelievable, even our dean who is also a speed type focused spirit saint couldn't hit him, the younger one however is named Mao Bao'er, she is 8 years old this year but she already reached rank 25, she is a very overbearing and prideful woman, her strength is unmatched, she can even last a fight against our vice dean who is a spirit saint focused on strength", Dai Mubai introduced the siblings, when he is introducing Bao'er, admiration is practically oozing off of him, which Zhuqing immediately noticed.

"Wow! This school really have monsters! How talented can Bao'er be? She actually reached rank 25 when she's just 8 years old! When can we meet them?", Xiao Wu is also the one who responded, even though Tang San is also amazed but he didn't show it and Ning Rongrong doesn't wanna speak because she fears that her true nature might be discovered.

"No you're wrong, Xingyun is more talented", Dai Mubai seriously said.

"Huh? How? Bao'er literally reached rank 25 while she's just 8, Xingyun is just rank 35 even though he's already 12 years old, when compared to Bao'er I don't see any indication that he's more talented?", Tang San finally joined in on the conversation and asked what confused everyone in the group.

"*sigh* do you remember his expertise? He focused on training his flexibility and dodging capabilities, which is very hard and very complicated to master unlike Bao'er's fighting style to overpower her opponents with her attack power, now imagine how much time he spent on training just to be able to easily dodge all of our dean's attacks", Dai Mubai paused and let his words sink in their minds, after a moment of thinking all 4 of Tang San's team seems to have been enlightened.

"I heard from Bao'er that he stagnated his rank when he reached rank 20 for four years before absorbing his second spirit ring to hone his dodging capabilities to the utmost, now think about what rank he might be right now if he didn't dedicate four years to train his dodging capabilities", Dai Mubai continued and when the 4 heard what he said, there is only one thought that appeared on their minds, 'MONSTER!'.

"Oh, there they are! The siblings I'm talking about, c'mon I'll introduce you guys to them", Dai Mubai saw the siblings waiting for them and the siblings also saw Dai Mubai from afar, the 4 newcomer's eyes immediately looked at the guy who was wearing a black beanie with a red cat on his shoulders, the next moment Xingyun disappeared from their view.

Everyone was shocked, except for Bao'er who anticipated that this will happen and felt pity for the newcomers who will experience her brother's hyper attitude on their first day here, she is even afraid that they will be scared off by her brother's eccentric personality.

Xingyun immediately appeared on Xiao Wu's side and whispered to her, "What is a rabbit like you doing here?", this made Xiao Wu stiffen up, when Tang San saw this, he immediately tried to shield her from Xingyun and looked seriously at Xingyun, what everone's thoughts at the moment is, 'FAST!'.

"Tsk, you're too stuck up bro, I wouldn't take her away from you, don't worry", Xingyun said when he saw how overprotective Tang San is of Xiao Wu, Tang San blushed when he heard this.

"We are only siblings!", Tang San said.

"Really? Why are you blushing then?", Xingyun teased Tang San further, which made Tang San blush further, when Xingyun saw his reaction he giggled, "You should really learn how to hide your emotions", Xingyun teased him once more.

At this moment, a fair hand suddenly appeared on Xingyun's shoulder, which immediately made him stiffen up and he stopped teasing Tang San, "Brother, don't you think that's enough? You're making the newcomers uncomfortable", a menacing voice sounded on Xingyun's back, Bao'er finally arrived on the scene, this also relieved Dai Mubai beacuse she's the only one who could control her brother.

"but Bao'er-"

"Shut up brother! At least give yourself some face, if you don't stop this, I would ignore you for a week", Bao'er threatened Xingyun, which worked wonderfully.

Xingyun actually never feared Bao'er when she's mad, he just doesn't want what happened when they were 7 years old to happen again. At that time, Bao'er always felt embarassed of her brother when he finds something interesting, his hyper personality just comes out and the whole village always sees it, even if they didn't say anything, Bao'er knew that because of his brother's behavior, he was looked down on by almost everyone in the village, after a long time of enduring it, she finally snapped.

When she saw his brother being so hyper about new books sold by villagers, she couldn't endure the looks everyone is giving to her and her brother, so she threatened her brother that she wouldn't talk to him for a week if he didn't stop what he was doing right there and then, but Xingyun didn't listen to her and didn't believe that she would be able to not talk to him for a week, so he ignored her threat.

This angered Bao'er, so she really ignored Xingyun not for a week but a whole month just to prove her point, what she did made Xingyun uncomfortable and scared that he will lose his sister, fortunately after a month everything went back to normal, but because of this Xingyun took Bao'er seriously from then on and whenever he's reminded of what happened that time, he shivers and he never dared to anger Bao'er again.
