Chapter 125: Oscar's Offensive
Aotian and the others merely glanced indifferently at Oscar, then continued eating their breakfast, ignoring him.
Oscar's expression turned a little awkward, but he immediately recalled the advice Dai Mubai had given him: always be thick-skinned, no matter the situation or stage. Only by being thick-skinned would he have a chance to win the beauty's favor.
Xiao Wu and Gu Yuena sat on either side of Aotian, while Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing sat opposite them. After getting his breakfast, Oscar mustered his courage and sat beside Ning Rongrong.
Today, Oscar's hair was meticulously combed, and he wore a brand-new set of clothes. He had always kept this new outfit stored away, unable to bear wearing it, but now, for the sake of his own happiness, he had to take it out, no matter how reluctant he was.
Oscar's looks were even better than Dai Mubai's. With careful grooming, he actually showed a tendency to catch up to Aotian, though of course, his temperament was still miles apart from Aotian's.
After sitting down, Oscar's nose twitched. He caught a faint, almost imperceptible bodily fragrance wafting from Ning Rongrong, and his heart pounded with excitement.
This was his first time pursuing a girl, so naturally, he felt both nervous and excited.
However, as soon as he thought of Dai Mubai's valuable experience backing him up, he slowly began to relax.
With the experience of Dai Mubai, that ladies' man, what did he need to worry about? As long as he wasn't nervous and followed Dai Mubai's advice, he would surely succeed.
Ning Rongrong frowned slightly and shifted her seat closer to Zhu Zhuqing, saying to Oscar, "What are you doing sitting next to me?"
Oscar displayed a charming smile and said, "We are all classmates, and soon we'll be fighting side-by-side. I think we all need to get to know each other better so we can better handle the dangers within the Star Dou Great Forest."
Ning Rongrong snorted coldly, saying, "That's what *you* think, not what *I* think. What help can a creepy guy like you offer the team?"
Her first impression of Oscar wasn't good. Moreover, Oscar was a companion of Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, and she already detested those two to the extreme, so naturally, she assumed Oscar was the same type of person as them.
Oscar wasn't easily deterred by Ning Rongrong's ruthless words. He continued to smile and said, "Do you know what effects my sausages have? Not only can they fill your stomach, but my Big Sausage can also heal and restore stamina, and my Small Sausage can provide detoxification. Their effects are directly proportional to my Spirit Power."
Tang San sat down on Oscar's other side and couldn't help but exclaim, "Shrek Academy truly is full of monsters! I heard from Dai Mubai that you possess Innate Full Spirit Power. On the entire Douluo Continent, you're probably the only Food-type Spirit Master with Innate Full Spirit Power; you'd be hard-pressed to find a second one."
Hearing Tang San praise him, Oscar's spirits immediately soared, yet his words were incredibly humble as he said, "Not at all. Compared to you all, I'm still far behind."
Hearing that Oscar possessed Innate Full Spirit Power, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were both startled. With their knowledge, they understood how incredibly difficult it was for a Food-type Spirit Master to appear with Innate Full Spirit Power. It was an almost impossible situation, yet one had appeared right before them.
Ning Rongrong glanced at Oscar and, seeing the smug look on his face, immediately felt displeased. She sneered, "That's right, compared to us, you really are far behind. Look at Aotian, Gu Yuena, and Xiao Wu; they're only twelve years old and are already level 31. Even Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing have reached level 30. I heard you're already fourteen, so tell me, what level are you now?"
Oscar could no longer maintain his composure, and an awkward expression appeared on his face. He said, "I'm currently level 29, and I'll reach level 30 very soon. As everyone knows, cultivation for Food-type Spirit Masters is more difficult than for other types."
Tang San nodded and said, "Indeed, cultivation for Food-type Spirit Masters is more difficult than for other Spirit Masters. For Oscar to have cultivated to level 29 at fourteen years old, he's considered a genius among all Spirit Masters, let alone being a Food-type Spirit Master."
Tang San had studied under Grandmaster for six years, so he wasn't without insight. Although Oscar's soul incantation was a bit disgusting, he still greatly admired Oscar's talent.
Hearing Tang San defend his face once again, Oscar couldn't help but cast a grateful look at him. Whether Tang San did it intentionally or unintentionally, he had helped him.
Ning Rongrong didn't refute Tang San's words, because what he said was the truth.
Oscar continued, "I guess none of you have ever been to the Star Dou Great Forest, have you? I've been there a few times, and it's a wonderful place. It's the cradle of Soul Beasts and also the favorite place for powerful Spirit Masters. Any Spirit Master, given enough time, can find the most suitable soul ring for themselves within the Star Dou Great Forest."
Tang San had indeed never been to the Star Dou Great Forest and began listening intently. Even Ning Rongrong, though she had some knowledge of the Star Dou Great Forest, her expression also became a bit more serious.
Oscar secretly glanced at Ning Rongrong and saw that her expression had become a bit more serious, so he spoke with increasing enthusiasm. He began recounting his past experiences training in the Star Dou Great Forest under Zhao Wuji's leadership, along with Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun: how they cooperated to kill Soul Beasts, what to watch out for...
This was the second valuable piece of advice Dai Mubai had given Oscar: show off your extensive knowledge in front of girls. As long as a girl is attracted, you have a chance.
In summary, it was: be knowledgeable and articulate.
Oscar was speaking enthusiastically. Even Tang San was listening attentively, and Ning Rongrong's eating speed had slowed considerably.
Suddenly, with a bang, Xiao Wu forcefully slapped the table, stood up, and huffily declared, "I'm full!"
After saying that, she strode out of the cafeteria.
Everyone except Aotian and Gu Yuena was startled by Xiao Wu, not understanding why she was throwing a tantrum.
Aotian and Gu Yuena both stood up and, without a word, followed Xiao Wu out.
Zhu Zhuqing also didn't hesitate. Since Xiao Wu had left, why would she stay here?
Ning Rongrong glanced at Oscar, then also ran out after them.
Although she had never been to the Star Dou Great Forest, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect possessed much information about it. She had also grown up listening to her two Titled Douluo grandfathers tell stories about the Star Dou Great Forest.
She had merely found Oscar's adventure stories to be a novelty since she hadn't heard them from her two grandfathers before; it wasn't that she was genuinely curious.
In her opinion, this still didn't change the fact that Oscar was creepy.
Oscar was speaking excitedly when the sudden turn of events stunned him for a moment, and his beaming expression instantly fell.
Noticing Oscar's dejected look, Tang San couldn't help but ask, "Are you really planning to pursue Ning Rongrong?"
Oscar nodded and said, "My father had me when he was fourteen, and I'm fourteen now, but I haven't even held a girl's hand. Don't you think I'm a complete failure?"
Tang San couldn't help but be amused by Oscar's words. He asked, "Is the meaning of your life solely for women? There are countless people in this world who haven't dated a girl by fourteen, yet you consider it a disgrace."
He put down his chopsticks, stood up, and said, "Oscar, I'll give you some kind advice. If I were you, I'd strive to become stronger instead of just indulging in wild thoughts. Once a person becomes powerful, everything they do will become easier."
