Rebellious Lord of All Realms: Su Chen's Dark Harem

Theoretical talk is hard to convince people; dignity is shattered on the confession platform.Yu Xiaogang led dozens of core Shrek Academy students to the battlefield. Clad in simple gray robes, he looked at Su Chen with a grave expression, attempting to persuade him with the theories he prided himself on: ”Su Chen, everything must be based on the path of balance! While Xiao Ling is certainly at fault, his Sea God Inheritance concerns the future of the continent. By severely damaging his inheritance, you have already broken the continent’s balance of power. Why not stop here? I am willing to guarantee, in the name of Shrek Academy, that Xiao Ling will no longer be your enemy. How about it?”

”The path of balance?” Before Su Chen could speak, Ning Rongrong let out a cold laugh. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda spun above her head, its golden light so blinding that people could not open their eyes. ”When Shrek Academy students mocked my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as ’support trash,’ and mocked the God-Defying Power as ’heretical sorcery,’ why didn’t you talk about balance then? When Xiao Ling hunted down The women of the squad to snatch the ancient spirit ring, why didn’t you talk about balance? Now that it’s your turn to suffer a crushing defeat, you suddenly remember balance?”

Ah Yin’s Blue Silver Grass swayed gently, Life Power intertwined with God-Defying Power, her tone calm yet carrying unquestionable strength: ”Yu Xiaogang, your theories might explain the power rules of the continent, but they cannot explain the goodness or evil of the human heart. Xiao Ling’s actions were not a momentary impulse, but stemmed from his greed for power and his disregard for others. Such a person, even with the Sea God Inheritance, will only become a scourge to the continent.”

Xiao Wu hopped to Su Chen’s side, her rabbit ears trembling slightly with anger: ”Stop spouting empty theories here! Our Sisters nearly died at Xiao Ling’s hands several times. This pain and fear cannot be wiped away by a few words of ’balance’ from you! Today, we must make him pay the price he deserves, and let him know that those who trample on others’ dignity will eventually be trampled upon themselves!”

Qian Renxue stepped forward, her golden angel wings slowly unfolding, her azure blue eyes filled with mockery: ”I was once an executor of the God Realm’s divine trials and know well that the so-called ’continental balance’ is merely an excuse used by the God Realm to bind all living beings. Yu Xiaogang, your theories are vulnerable before divine authority, and before true justice and the Power of Bonds, they are not even worth mentioning.”

Yu Xiaogang was rendered speechless by The women of the squad. He opened his mouth, only to find that the theories he prided himself on appeared so pale and powerless before these people who had personally experienced life and death and held fast to their bonds. He turned his head to look at Xiao Ling, who was collapsed on the ground, his eyes filled with heartache: ”Little San...”

”Say no more.” Su Chen’s voice was icy and bone-chilling. His black and gold gaze swept over the watching Shrek teachers and students. ”Today, I want Xiao Ling to repent for his actions in front of the entire school! I want everyone to know that greed, selfishness, and betrayal will ultimately pay the most painful price!”

Before the words had even faded, Ah Yin’s Blue Silver Grass surged violently, dragging Xiao Ling up from the ground and binding him firmly to a broken stone pillar in the center of the battlefield. Around the stone pillar, the Blue Silver Grass wove into a makeshift ”Altar of Repentance,” and countless Shrek students and faculty were guided by the Blue Silver Grass to surround it, forced to witness this shameful scene.

Xiao Ling was bound to the stone pillar, his body weak and powerless, his spirit power suppressed tightly by the God-Defying Power, leaving him without even the strength to struggle. He looked at the dense crowd of gazes around him—some sympathetic, some mocking, some disappointed. These gazes pierced his heart like sharp blades, making him wish he could crawl into a crack in the ground.

”Su Chen, you cannot treat me like this! I am the heir to the Sea God; I cannot repent here!” Xiao Ling roared, his eyes filled with humiliation and unwillingness.

”Heir to the Sea God?” Su Chen walked slowly in front of him, the God-Defying Scepter lifting gently to press against his chin. ”Are you worthy? From the moment you snatched the ancient spirit ring for power, you were unworthy of possessing any inheritance; from the moment you hunted down The women of the squad, you were unworthy of being called a powerhouse; from the moment you colluded with the Heaven Dou Empire and the remnants of the Spirit Hall, you completely degenerated into a lackey of power!”

”Now, repent for me!” Su Chen’s voice rose sharply, and the God-Defying Power surged into Xiao Ling’s body through the scepter, bringing waves of intense pain. ”Repent for your greed in snatching the ancient spirit ring! Repent for your cruelty in hunting down The women of the squad! Repent for your despicable collusion with foreign enemies in an attempt to wipe out the God-Defying Squad! If you hide even a single word, I will make you completely lose all your spirit power and become a cripple!”

Xiao Ling’s body trembled violently, intense pain and humiliation intertwined, bringing him to the brink of collapse. He looked at the surrounding teachers and students, at the disappointed gazes of Flender and Zhao Wuji, and at Yu Xiaogang’s heartbroken expression, finally unable to hold on any longer. Tears mixed with black blood slid down his cheeks.

”I... I repent...” Xiao Ling’s voice was hoarse and broken, filled with endless humiliation. ”I shouldn’t have snatched Su Chen’s ancient spirit ring for the sake of power... I shouldn’t have hunted down the members of the God-Defying Squad for revenge... I shouldn’t have colluded with the Heaven Dou Empire and the remnants of the Spirit Hall in an attempt to wipe them out... I was wrong... I was truly wrong...”

His voice grew quieter and more choked, each sentence feeling as if it drained all the strength from his body. The watching Shrek students were in an uproar; they had never imagined that Xiao Ling, who was like a myth within the academy, had actually done so many disgraceful things.

”Speak up!” Su Chen applied a little force with the God-Defying Scepter, and Xiao Ling’s screams rang out once more.

”I was wrong!” Xiao Ling roared with all his might, his voice echoing throughout the entire Shrek Academy. ”I shouldn’t have been greedy! I shouldn’t have been cruel! I shouldn’t have been despicable! I am sorry to Su Chen! I am sorry to the members of the God-Defying Squad! I am sorry to Shrek Academy!”

This cry of repentance struck everyone’s heart like a heavy hammer. Shrek Academy’s dignity was thoroughly trampled at this moment, and the name that once symbolized glory and power was now covered in an indelible shadow because of Xiao Ling’s repentance.

Just then, several Shrek students loyal to Xiao Ling could no longer endure it. They roared, channeling their spirit power and charging toward Su Chen: ”Su Chen! You’ve gone too far! We’ll fight you to the death!”

”You don’t know when to die.” A flash of severity crossed Qian Renxue’s eyes. Her golden angel power erupted instantly, her angel wings unfurled, and a golden blade of light slashed toward the charging students. The blade of light carried powerful intimidation, but just as it was about to strike the students, it was skillfully deflected by Yun Yun’s Wind Wings, landing on the ground and blasting open a deep trench.

”We only punish the primary culprit; we do not kill the innocent.” Yun Yun’s voice was calm yet firm. ”Those who don’t want to die, retreat!”

Qian Renxue nodded slightly, understanding Yun Yun’s intention. She channeled her angel power again, and the golden light condensed into a massive phantom of an angel, hovering above the battlefield. Its powerful pressure rendered all Shrek students unable to move. ”Today’s events all stem from Xiao Ling and have nothing to do with anyone else. But if anyone insists on standing in the way, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

Zi Yan’s Dragon Phoenix Fire burned fiercely, echoing Qian Renxue’s angel power to form a massive energy light curtain that enveloped the entire battlefield. ”If you know what’s good for you, just watch obediently. Otherwise, my Dragon Phoenix Fire does not care who you are!”

The women of the squad displayed their powers one after another. Ning Rongrong’s Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda shone with surging light, Ah Yin’s Blue Silver Grass formed a sturdy barrier, Zhu Zhuqing’s shadow figure wove around the students, and Xiao Yi Xian’s pale green Poison Mist spread out, creating a deterrent. The powerful aura left those students who wanted to resist in complete despair, and they stopped in their tracks, not daring to take another step forward.

Yu Xiaogang looked at the angel phantom hovering in the sky and at the imposing women of the squad, his heart filled with despair. He knew that Shrek Academy had completely lost—not just the battle, but their dignity as well. The theories he prided himself on were as fragile as bubbles before absolute power and firm bonds.

Xiao Ling slumped on the Altar of Repentance, his eyes hollow as if he had lost his soul. His cries of repentance still echoed in the air, each word a reminder of his humiliation and failure. He knew that from this day forward, he would live forever under the shadow of this repentance, becoming the laughingstock of the continent.

Su Chen looked at everything before him, his black and gold gaze devoid of any pity. This was the effect he wanted—to make Xiao Ling completely lose his dignity, to make Shrek Academy pay the price for their past arrogance, and to let the entire continent know that the God-Defying Squad cannot be bullied and the Power of Bonds cannot be insulted!

Qian Renxue landed beside Su Chen, her golden angel power gradually receding, her eyes filled with determination: ”Su Chen, the final resistance of Shrek Academy has collapsed, and Xiao Ling has repented. What shall we do with them next?”

Su Chen turned to look at The women of the squad, his eyes inquiring. The women exchanged glances and nodded one after another. A cold smile curled the corners of Su Chen’s mouth: ”Xiao Ling’s repentance is just the beginning. Next, we will make Shrek Academy pay the final price for everything they have done!”

On the battlefield, the atmosphere became heavy once again. Shrek Academy’s dignity was already shattered, and the anger of the God-Defying Squad had not yet fully subsided. A greater storm was about to sweep across the sky above Shrek Academy.
