Aotian smiled, asking with interest, "How do you want to compete?"
Dai Mubai said, "Tomorrow afternoon, in the small woods outside the village, we'll have an open and fair fight. If you win, I won't have any more designs on Gu Yuena. If you lose, I will continue to pursue her."
Aotian nodded in agreement. "Since you want to fight me, I'll grant your wish. But I should warn you beforehand, fighting me comes with a price."
Dai Mubai sneered, "Let me remind you too, my opponents never meet a good end."
Aotian laughed. "Not bad. I quite like your arrogant personality. The more arrogant someone is, the more satisfying it is to beat them up."
With that said, Aotian turned and left.
"Remember to bring Gu Yuena when the time comes!" Dai Mubai shouted after him.
Aotian shook his head and gave a disdainful smile.
Dai Mubai clenched his fists. In his view, snatching another man's woman was perfectly normal. However, he understood that snatching a woman from an acquaintance wasn't exactly proper, but he just couldn't suppress the desire in his heart.
He decided that if he lost tomorrow, he would give up on Gu Yuena. If he won, he would see how things played out. If an opportunity arose, he would continue his pursuit. If not, he would have no choice but to reluctantly give up.
After all, they were all classmates and would be spending a lot of time together in the future. He didn't want to make their relationship too tense.
Of course, he was confident that he would absolutely win his battle against Aotian.
After all, he was a Level 37 Soul Elder, while Aotian was only Level 31.
Aside from the legendary Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, which might make him take things a bit seriously, Dai Mubai didn't give any other Beast Martial Soul a second thought.
Even if Aotian had some Golden Dragon Martial Soul, he didn't care. He'd never even heard of this Martial Soul. How could it possibly be stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul?
…
Not long after Tang San returned to his room, Aotian came back as well.
As soon as he entered, he overheard the conversation between Oscar and Tang San next door.
"Tang San, of the four new girls who arrived today, is there anyone you like?" Oscar probed.
"No!" Tang San said with his eyes closed, his hands cradling the back of his head.
He was in a terrible mood. Over the past few years, he had subtly expressed his feelings for Gu Yuena multiple times, but she had always ignored him. He hadn't given up and had always held onto a sliver of hope.
But today, it was all over.
Oscar grew slightly excited and said, "That's great. It seems like Boss Dai likes that girl named Gu Yuena. That Xiao Wu seems really familiar with Aotian, not sure what their relationship is. That leaves two. Although Zhuqing has a fiery figure, what if she's hideous under that mask? So, my target is Ning Rongrong. She's beautiful and pure, with such a delicate temperament. I'm sure my devastatingly handsome appearance will be able to move her."
Listening to Oscar's lewd and narcissistic words, Tang San, already in a foul mood, couldn't help but retort, "Why are you and Dai Mubai both so obsessed with women? It's their first day here and you're already hitting on them. Don't you feel any shame? We came to the Academy to study. Wouldn't it be better to spend more time on Cultivation?"
Oscar, who had been excitedly rambling about his dreams of picking up girls, was struck dumb with embarrassment by Tang San's scolding. He opened his mouth, wanting to explain himself, but couldn't find the words.
If Dai Mubai or Ma Hongjun had said such things to him, he could have retorted with a cheeky grin.
But the one saying this was Tang San, the new classmate, who clearly wasn't joking and possessed such terrifyingly vicious methods. So, Oscar didn't dare to talk back.
He dejectedly returned to his own bed and sat down, not daring to speak to Tang San again.
Having vented on someone, Tang San felt a little better, but he was still in no mood for Cultivation. He decided to just go to sleep.
He had only recently recovered from his serious injuries and needed a good rest.
Aotian shook his head with a smile. Compared to Tang San, Oscar's temperament was still too immature. It was only natural that he would get a dressing-down from Tang San.
Inside Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's room.
Xiao Wu didn't like to cultivate. She was a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast who had undergone human transformation, and her hundred thousand years of cultivation hadn't completely dissipated. Even if she didn't cultivate, her cultivation level would still grow slowly. Of course, if she did cultivate, her progress would be faster.
Ning Rongrong didn't like to cultivate either. Back in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, there were people to supervise her, and with her considerable talent, she had reached level twenty-six at her age.
Now that she had left the Sect, there was finally no one to manage her. Why would she even think about cultivation?
After dinner, the two girls chatted in their room, one complimenting the other's legs, the other praising the other's skin…
Whenever Ning Rongrong asked about some of Aotian's secrets, like his origins or how that magical carriage was made, Xiao Wu would change the subject. This only made Ning Rongrong more and more curious about Aotian.
Just who was this man? He was handsome, talented, and seemed to be very wealthy. He hadn't been the least bit shocked when he learned she was from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, nor had he shown any intention of trying to curry favor.
This was difficult for Ning Rongrong to believe.
Shouldn't a normal person try to suck up to her upon hearing she was from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?
Unless they were from Spirit Hall, the two great imperial families, or the Upper Three Sects. She suspected Aotian might be from one of these forces, but she just couldn't get it out of Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu waited and waited until Ning Rongrong grew drowsy from their conversation and fell asleep. Only then did she sneak out of the room and head to Gu Yuena and Zhu Zhuqing's room.
Gu Yuena and Zhu Zhuqing's room had been quiet the whole time, with both of them sitting on their respective beds cultivating.
When Xiao Wu pushed the door open, they both opened their eyes at the same time.
Zhu Zhuqing's heart stirred as she recalled Xiao Wu saying earlier that she would teach her a method to increase her cultivation speed tonight. She was secretly looking forward to it.
"Sister Zhuqing, I'm here to fulfill my promise," Xiao Wu said with a wink and a smile.
"Sister Xiao Wu, thank you," Zhu Zhuqing said gratefully.
Although Xiao Wu had repeatedly said she was confident she could increase her cultivation speed, such a thing sounded too fantastical. While she trusted Xiao Wu in her heart, a voice inside her kept telling her it was too bizarre.
And now, Xiao Wu had really come.
Xiao Wu walked to Zhu Zhuqing's bed and said, "To increase your cultivation speed, I need to do a comprehensive check of your body and then formulate a cultivation plan that suits you. This process is my secret, so I'll need you to be unconscious while I do it. Are you willing?"
To prevent Zhu Zhuqing from asking a million questions afterward, Xiao Wu directly stated that it was her own secret. Of course, it wasn't her secret at all, but Aotian's.
Zhu Zhuqing must not know about this process. Otherwise, how could they hide their true strength and identity?
Zhu Zhuqing pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded. "Sister Xiao Wu, I trust you."
It felt so good to be trusted. Xiao Wu smiled and said, "Alright then. Lie down, relax your whole body, and don't be nervous."
Zhu Zhuqing lay down flat on the bed and slowly calmed her mind.
"Sister Na'er, she's all yours," Xiao Wu said, turning her head.
Gu Yuena, with her purple hair and wearing a sexy nightgown, walked over and said softly, "Close your eyes."
Zhu Zhuqing obediently closed her eyes.
Gu Yuena's slender, jade-like fingers glided above Zhu Zhuqing's cheek. Her powerful spiritual power instantly hypnotized Zhu Zhuqing, plunging her into a deep state of sleep.
Even if someone were to do anything to Zhu Zhuqing's body now, she wouldn't wake up. She would only awaken naturally after sleeping for a certain amount of time.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu raised her right hand. A golden dragon scale slowly materialized in her palm.
The dragon scale was etched with exquisite and mysterious patterns, and in the very center was the character for 'Wu'.
This was a gift from Aotian. Although with her current cultivation she couldn't use most of its functions, it was more than enough for communication.
She infused her spiritual power into it and called out softly, "Aotian, get over here. It's time for you to get to work."
