Looking at the note in front of him, Shen Fei suddenly thought this was rather absurd!

‘The setting for my new life here is really too much!’

He had to break off an arranged marriage engagement, his family was in decline, no one cared about him, and he even awakened a trashy talent.

Most of his family members had passed away, and his father, the only one alive, had gone out to look for his mother.

…And he did not know when Sheng Teng would return.

“If father wants to go, then so be it. It won’t change anything anyway.”

Shen Fei could not help but scowl as he put the note into his pocket.

Now, it was time to go to school.

…

Not long after, Shen Fei arrived at the school, he was greeted by a waving Lilian.

“Good Morning, Shen Fei.”

“Morning.” Shen Fei went to his seat after returning her greeting.

The homeroom teacher walked into the classroom with a thick stack of materials.

“Good Morning, students. I’ll be teaching you a new subject today. It’s mainly about the basic knowledge of spirit beasts and training methods. Now…”

…

“…In addition to rank, the attributes of spirit beasts are also very important. On top of that, from the most common sixteen attributes system, we have also discovered something much more mysterious: spirit, time, and space…”

Shen Fei casually flipped through the textbook in front of him and leaned back in his chair.

He had long since memorized the knowledge related to spirit beasts, and he felt particularly comfortable listening to the lesson…

‘It’s so comfortable.’

“Hey, did you guys hear what the young master of the Li family said? It’s about the goddess.”

Shen Fei impatiently glanced at the jacket guy.

‘Why are these bootlickers following Aloy around all day long? Will they ever stop?’

The jacket guy’s lackey were gossiping.

“Boss, you’re talking about the F-Class trash breaking off his engagement with the goddess?”

“He’s just a good-for-nothing, what right does he have to break off the engagement with our goddess? If someone is to break it off, it should be the goddess who does it!”

“Although we don’t know if this news is true or not, you can see it no matter what.”

“That good-for-nothing just wants to use this opportunity to regain his reputation from the goddess!”

“But it’s good that we discovered his scheme.”

“I’ll ask him after class. If it’s true, I’ll let him know the consequences of rejecting our goddess!”

“Boss, you’re so cool!”

“Thank you, you’re too kind.”

Under everyone’s adulation, the jacket guy felt smug.

“Hahaha…”

Shen Fei wordlessly covered his ears.

Without a doubt, the news that he was going to break off the engagement must have come from Li Yuan’s lapdog.

Shen Fei lightly sighed, his heart was filled with helplessness.

When he was still Aloy’s fiancé, these people had been targeting him. Now that he was going to break off the engagement, they were still unsatisfied.

‘They’re really going too far!’ Shen Fei’s eyes held a dark gleam.

It seemed like the lesson he had given them last time was not enough. He had to find another opportunity to teach these bootlickers well!

…

“Students, class is over. You can go and do whatever you want now.”

As soon as the teacher left the classroom, a few boys from the back row walked straight toward Shen Fei and surrounded him.

The jacket guy who was leading the group strode forward and arrogantly shoved Shen Fei.

“Hey, trash! You’re the one who wants to break off your engagement with the goddess?”

Shen Fei pretended to be shocked. “How did you know?”

Hearing this, everyone present immediately gasped. The way they looked at Shen Fei had also changed from mockery to anger.

“Why are you all looking at me like that?” Shen Fei pouted and looked at the bootlickers in front of him with disdain. “Whether or not the engagement is broken off is a family matter between me and Aloy. What right do you have as outsiders to interfere?”

“So you’re saying that you’re really going to break off the engagement?”

An underling of the jacket guy was filled with rage. He shook his fist in front of Shen Fei.

When they first received the news, they thought it was fake. After all, as long as one was in their right mind, no one would let go of the opportunity to marry Aloy.

Moreover, the opportunity was given to someone like Shen Fei, whose family background had declined. A marriage alliance meant that there was a chance to turn his situation around.

“Of course.” Shen Fei’s nonchalant admission caused all the Aloy bootlickers to clench their fists.

“Why did you break off the engagement with her?”

The few lackeys did not even think as they charged forward and grabbed Shen Fei’s collar roughly.

“A piece of trash like you actually dares to take the initiative to break off your marriage with Aloy!”

“That’s right, even if you want to break off the engagement, it’s the goddess who’s the one who should take the initiative to get rid of you, trash!”

“It’s none of your business.”

“How is it none of my business?” The jacket guy strode forward under the anticipating gazes of the many bootlickers. “Our goddess, Aloy, needs fans like us to support her behind the scenes! Although the goddess might not know about our glorious deeds, it’s our destiny to silently protect the goddess as her Secret Guardians!”

“Well said, boss!”

“That’s right, we’ve always been protecting the goddess in secret!”

“Shen Fei is a threat to our goddess’ status. We must teach him a lesson!”

A loud round of applause rang out from the lackeys.

“Are you done?” Shen Fei sneered and suddenly slapped away the hand that was holding his collar. “You can protect whomever you want. This, of course, has nothing to do with me. But… I don’t think Aloy needs a bunch of losers like you to protect her.”

“What are you saying?!”

Immediately, the “Secret Guardians” were enraged and surrounded Shen Fei. Shen Fei surveyed the angry crowd with pity.

“Do you really think that she needs you guys who use her name to cause trouble everywhere? No. In fact, she can’t wait for you to disappear from this world. It’s an insult for her to even have the slightest relation to you!

“You guys don’t even know what her real personality is like. After looking at two pictures, you start calling yourselves her guardians? Even a dog would feel disgusted at the sight of you!”

Everyone’s faces turned gloomy from the scolding.

“What, are you all still not satisfied?” Shen Fei casually shook his pockets and sat somewhere else, admiring the scene before him.

To put it bluntly, this bunch of bootlickers were using Aloy as a shield to do whatever made them feel good. Not only did these actions not help Aloy at all, but they had also greatly tarnished her reputation. Aloy was really unlucky to have such fans.

If Aloy had a choice, she would also want them to disappear from the world.

“However, there are many tedious issues that you’e not satisfied with. If I break off the engagement, you won’t be happy. If I don’t break off the engagement, you won’t be happy either. What do I have to do to satisfy you bunch of bootlickers? Hmm?”

Shen Fei’s expression changed, and his gentle tone became sharp.

“Do you want me to teach you a lesson myself?”
