At the entrance of Shrek Academy,
Yun Chuan, dressed lightly, turned around and looked at the Shrek Academy crowd who had come to see him off, saying with a smile, "This is as far as you need to go."
"Teacher Tang, do you really have to leave?" Ning Rongrong looked at him reluctantly, asking expectantly, "Can't you stay a little longer?"
"Yes, Teacher Tang, please stay a little longer." Tang San, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and others echoed in agreement.
Yun Chuan shook his head and said with a smile, "All good things must come to an end. I've stayed here long enough."
Three days had passed since everyone returned from the Star Dou Great Forest.
Initially, Yun Chuan came to Shrek to be a teacher purely for fun, and to meet the original characters, and incidentally, to beat up Tang San. Now that his goal was achieved, it was naturally time for him to leave. After all, staying here would not improve his strength in the slightest.
Yun Chuan's gaze swept over everyone. Only those he was familiar with came to see him off today: Dean Flender, as well as Tang San, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and the two girls, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing. As for Xiao Wu, she did not come, citing discomfort.
He, of course, knew why Xiao Wu hadn't come. She was probably afraid that if she stayed with him for too long, he would see through her true form, which was why she had been avoiding him these past few days. Perhaps she had even thought about running away.
"Everyone, farewell for now."
Yun Chuan cupped his fist at everyone, then turned and left without any hesitation. His back was casual, unrestrained, and natural.
Everyone watched his retreating figure with reluctance. The most reluctant was Dean Flender, after all, no matter what, Yun Chuan's current identity was a teacher of Shrek Academy. And if Shrek had a Spirit Douluo level teacher, it would have a huge promotional effect on Shrek's reputation. And others hearing the name Shrek would show three points of respect.
Because of this, when Yun Chuan wanted to leave, he shamelessly tried to make him stay, even unprecedentedly offering various generous conditions. But these were all fleeting clouds to Yun Chuan, so he refused them with a light smile.
"Wait! Teacher Tang." Suddenly, Ning Rongrong called out to him.
"Rongrong, is there anything else?" Yun Chuan, who hadn't walked far, stopped and looked back at her. His bright eyes seemed a little puzzled as to why she called him.
"Teacher Tang, can I... see your true appearance?" Ning Rongrong took a deep breath, then looked at him with some nervousness. Yun Chuan was stunned, and Tang San and the others were even more confused. What did she mean by true appearance? Was Teacher Tang's current appearance not his original one?
"..."
Yun Chuan stared fixedly at the stubborn and persistent girl looking at him. After a moment of silence, he finally said helplessly, "How did you figure it out?"
The disguise mask he was wearing was an extremely precious ancient spirit tool. Even a Titled Douluo might not be able to tell he was wearing a disguise mask after putting it on. How did Ning Rongrong, a little girl who wasn't even a Spirit Elder, figure it out?
"Hehe, it's a girl's intuition!" Looking at Yun Chuan's helpless expression, Ning Rongrong, who got the answer she wanted, said with a giggle.
In fact, from the first time she met Yun Chuan, Ning Rongrong felt a sense of disharmony. Because such a beautiful and dazzling pair of eyes were set on such an ordinary face. It was simply too discordant and unreasonable.
Because of this, Ning Rongrong always felt that Yun Chuan's current face was not his real face, and it was very likely some kind of disguised Spirit Ability. So she tentatively tried to trick him, and as expected, she got the answer she wanted.
"No way, Teacher Tang's current appearance is fake? Then what does his true appearance look like?" Ma Hongjun couldn't help but exclaim. Tang San and the others also nodded, their gazes towards Yun Chuan becoming extremely curious.
"You..." Yun Chuan shook his head helplessly, looking at Ning Rongrong and saying, "Do you really want to see it that much?"
"Mm!" Ning Rongrong nodded affirmatively and persistently.
Because she always felt that once "Tang Chuan" left, she might never see him again. That's why she was so persistent in wanting to see his true appearance. One could only say that sometimes a woman's intuition is very accurate. It could almost be said to be prescient.
"Alright."
After all, she was his paper wife in his previous life, so fulfilling this small request was naturally nothing. However...
"You all turn around," Yun Chuan said impatiently to Flender, Tang San, and the others, who were staring at him intently, their faces clearly showing their curiosity.
"Ah? Why, Teacher Tang?" Ma Hongjun immediately yelled. Flender, Tang San, and the others also echoed, apparently somewhat confused by this.
'That's because I don't want you to see my peerless beauty.' Yun Chuan muttered to himself. Of course, this was just a joke, he wasn't that narcissistic. The real reason was that he always felt it was strange and shameful to reveal his true face by taking off his mask in front of a crowd of onlookers. The more people there were, the more shameful it felt. He didn't know what was going on.
On the surface, regarding everyone's confusion, Yun Chuan said, "Because my appearance is unusual, that's why I wear this mask. If you don't want to have nightmares or lose your appetite at night, then go ahead and look."
Once these words were spoken, and things had come to this point, what else could Flender, Tang San, and the others do? Naturally, they obediently turned around. But in their hearts, they were itching like cats, extremely curious about what kind of appearance lay beneath his mask.
The only ones who didn't turn around were the two girls, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.
"Little cat, aren't you going to turn around?" Yun Chuan looked at Zhu Zhuqing, trying to scare her, "I'm not afraid to tell you, my true appearance can stop children from crying at night and keep people awake!"
"...I'm not afraid." Zhu Zhuqing shook her head, not knowing why. In fact, she had always felt that this Teacher Tang was very familiar, as if she had met him somewhere before. She was absolutely certain that she knew this Teacher Tang. Therefore, seeing him about to reveal his true appearance, she naturally wouldn't turn around and miss this opportunity.
"Suit yourself."
Shrugging helplessly, Yun Chuan slowly placed his hand on his face, and then his face blurred, and a crystal mask immediately appeared on his face.
"Gulp!"
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing both widened their curious eyes, staring intently at him, watching as the man slowly removed the crystal mask...
