That stunningly beautiful woman had clearly caught the scent as well and hurried toward Huo Yuhao's stall, following the aroma.

Perhaps because the leading girl held a rather distinguished status within Shrek Academy.

When the students saw the girl approaching, the group that had been gathered in front of Huo Yuhao's stall actually moved aside on their own, opening up a path.

The stunning beauty and several other girls arrived in front of Huo Yuhao's stall.

Along the way, Seeing the other students voluntarily make way for her, the stunning beauty did not act arrogantly. Instead, she smiled gratefully at the students who had stepped aside.

The students who saw her smile all became so excited that their faces flushed red, their expressions brimming with exhilaration.

"Isn't that Jiang Nannan? She came to buy Grilled Fish too."

"She really is as beautiful as the rumors say. No wonder she's one of the two campus belles of Shrek Academy's Outer Court."

"That face, that figure... If she'd be my girlfriend, I'd be willing to do anything."

The Outer Court students of Shrek Academy discussed among themselves.

Huo Yuhao also turned his gaze toward Jiang Nannan.

It had to be said that Jiang Nannan truly was beautiful.

Of all the women he had met before, Tang Ya had been the most beautiful.

Yet Jiang Nannan was not only no less attractive than Tang Ya in appearance, she also possessed a gentle and graceful temperament.

Combined with the trace of sorrow that never seemed to fade from between her brows, she made people unable to resist feeling tender toward her.

It could be said that Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan each had their own charms.

Tang Ya was a lively, adorable, energetic girl, while Jiang Nannan was the soft, gentle type, tender as water. Each had her own appeal.

Still, Huo Yuhao was not so captivated by Jiang Nannan's appearance that he lost himself. His self-control was quite good.

Thus, after giving Jiang Nannan a glance, Huo Yuhao quickly withdrew his gaze.

Jiang Nannan, standing before him, was somewhat surprised by this.

It was not that she thought too highly of herself; it was simply the truth.

Most men, upon seeing her face, found it difficult to look away because of her outstanding beauty.

Some with dirty thoughts even revealed lewd smiles outright.

Such things had always given Jiang Nannan quite a headache.

Yet this time, Jiang Nannan saw none of those emotions in Huo Yuhao.

His gaze was clear, and Jiang Nannan was certain that he was not harboring any improper thoughts.

He had even withdrawn his gaze shortly after looking at her, which surprised Jiang Nannan greatly.

This handsome little Junior is rather unusual.

She could not help thinking to herself.

Then she stepped forward and asked Huo Yuhao, "Junior, how much are your Grilled Fish?"

Huo Yuhao answered with a smile, "Senior, five Copper Coins each."

"However, I'm closing up for today. I'll be selling again tomorrow, so please come back then, Senior."

Jiang Nannan felt slightly disappointed upon hearing this.

She really had wanted to try Huo Yuhao's large Grilled Fish.

Those two fish were big and black, and they surely smelled delicious.

But since Huo Yuhao said he was no longer selling, there was nothing she could do.

After letting out a helpless sigh, she said to Huo Yuhao, "That really is a pity. If I get the chance next time, I'll try your fish."

With that, she turned and walked away.

Huo Yuhao had originally thought the matter would end there.

Yet when the students in the area discovered that he would not sell Grilled Fish to Jiang Nannan, they all became somewhat dissatisfied.

A few of them even glared angrily at him.

Huo Yuhao found this utterly helpless. Jiang Nannan herself was not even angry, yet this bunch of simps had gotten angry instead.

It could only be said that this was truly bizarre.

"Kid, you dare refuse to sell?"

Just then, a low, deep voice filled with anger suddenly rang out.

A flash of Golden Light shot straight toward Huo Yuhao's stall.

Ding!

A Gold Soul Coin shot precisely toward Huo Yuhao's table and landed directly on top of it.

Immediately afterward, a tall figure swiftly passed Jiang Nannan's position and charged straight toward Huo Yuhao's stall.

"Isn't that Xu Sanshi? Why is he here too?"

"Today's really lucky. Not only did we run into Jiang Nannan, the flower of Shrek Academy's Outer Court, but we also encountered Xu Sanshi, another genius on par with Thunderbolt Bei Bei."

"Judging by the way Xu Sanshi looks, he's probably planning to force a sale. The kid clearly just said he wasn't selling."

"Don't you know? Xu Sanshi has always been pursuing Jiang Nannan. Though Jiang Nannan isn't interested in him, he keeps trying every possible way to please her."

"This time, he must be doing it to make Jiang Nannan happy too."

"Let's see whether this freshman knows what's good for him. Xu Sanshi is pretty normal when it comes to everything else, but he gets a little extreme whenever it involves Jiang Nannan. If this freshman still refuses to sell, there could be trouble."

The Shrek Academy students quickly recognized Xu Sanshi as well and could not help discussing him.

Up ahead, Xu Sanshi had already begun fighting Huo Yuhao for the two fish on his grill.

Once he reached Huo Yuhao's grill, he directly reached out to grab the two grilled fish from it.

But Huo Yuhao was not about to let him have his way.

After all, he had promised to save these for Tang Ya. No matter who came, it wouldn't make a difference.

The instant Xu Sanshi tried to snatch the grilled fish, Huo Yuhao grabbed them first, making him come up empty-handed.

Xu Sanshi frowned at the sight.

He reached out again, trying to grab the grilled fish in Huo Yuhao's hands.

But Huo Yuhao's footwork was incredibly nimble.

No matter how Xu Sanshi struggled and how much effort he wasted, he could not seize the grilled fish.

Xu Sanshi then shifted his target to Huo Yuhao himself.

He reached for Huo Yuhao's body, but without a word, Huo Yuhao used his Self-Created Soul Skill, Soaring Dragon Movement.

Those wondrous steps were so agile that Xu Sanshi could not even touch the corner of Huo Yuhao's clothes.

However, Huo Yuhao did not want to keep tangling with him, so after dodging for a while, he seized an opening and suddenly struck out with his palm.

"Great Sumeru Palm!"

Soul Power condensed beneath Huo Yuhao's palm, transforming into a powerful force.

Of course, Huo Yuhao had held back.

Even so, after taking that strike, Xu Sanshi was involuntarily sent flying a long distance away.

Xu Sanshi had only just barely steadied himself.

When he looked at Huo Yuhao again, surprise could not help but surface in his ink-black eyes.

Clearly, he had not expected a mere freshman like Huo Yuhao to be able to knock him back.

Just as he was about to attack again, the Gold Soul Coin he had tossed out earlier was thrown back to him by Huo Yuhao.

Then Huo Yuhao's calm voice rang out:

"Sorry, these two fish are for my sister. I'm not selling them."

As his words fell, the Shrek Academy students present were slightly stunned.

They looked carefully.

They discovered that Xu Sanshi had been knocked back more than ten meters by Huo Yuhao's single palm strike.

The surprise on their faces grew even stronger.

"This little brother is amazing!"
