Bibi Dong: This Is My Good Disciple

"Damn it, Luo Ye only mentioned giving an Immortal Herb to you, Teacher. He never said anything about giving me one!"

Hu Liena puffed out her cheeks, looking thoroughly sulky. Her gaze toward Bibi Dong was filled with resentment.

Their moods had completely reversed from before.

Bibi Dong was quite pleased. She snorted and said, "Isn't that only natural? As a disciple, if he has the chance to help his teacher ease her worries, then of course it is his duty."

"Even he himself said that in his previous life, I took very good care of him and was no different from true family. Using an Immortal Herb to help ease my mental suffering is only right."

At that moment, Bibi Dong finally felt that Luo Ye was acting like a proper disciple.

Rather than like before, when he wrote in his diary that his teacher's brain did not work properly. That was something only a traitorous disciple would do.

Seeing Bibi Dong's smug expression, Hu Liena could not help curling her lips and grumbling, "Just now, you were calling Luo Ye a traitorous disciple, but now you're praising him again. Teacher, your attitude changed way too fast."

"Besides, you're not the only one who needs an Immortal Herb. If I could get one of those legendary Immortal Herbs, my martial soul would definitely undergo a transformation too. Why didn't Luo Ye say he would give one to his senior sister?"

Hearing Hu Liena's quiet complaints, Bibi Dong, who was in an excellent mood, did not mind at all. Still, so that Hu Liena would not feel too disappointed, she comforted her, "Don't worry. Given the relationship between you and Luo Ye as senior sister and junior brother, as long as there are enough Immortal Herbs, you certainly will not be left out."

"However, we are definitely not the only two who saw Luo Ye's diary. The others must have learned about this through their Diary Instances as well."

"So, they will surely take the initiative to approach Luo Ye and try to grow closer to him in order to obtain Immortal Herbs."

This was precisely why Hu Liena was unhappy.

Luo Ye had written about the Immortal Herbs in his diary, so the competition would be fierce.

But after giving it some thought, Hu Liena still said confidently, "That's fine. No matter what, I'm Luo Ye's senior sister. With benefits like this, he definitely won't forget about me."

"Perhaps."

Bibi Dong spread her hands without refuting her, though she sincerely felt that Hu Liena was being far too optimistic.

The moment Immortal Herbs were mentioned, every Diary Instance holder became restless.

Although the points store contained treasures even more precious than Immortal Herbs, the daily point limit was only ten. It would take a very long time to accumulate enough points to buy those treasures.

But Immortal Herbs were different.

Luo Ye, as a Reincarnator, knew where the Immortal Herbs were located and could obtain them at any time. That meant time was extremely tight for them.

They had to build a good relationship with Luo Ye before he acquired the Immortal Herbs.

Only then could they gain the advantage and have a greater chance of receiving Immortal Herbs from Luo Ye.

However, they also knew that they absolutely could not go to Shrek Academy right now. Thus, no matter how desperately they wanted Immortal Herbs, they forcibly endured it.

It was foreseeable that once Luo Ye convinced Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong and prepared to take them away from Shrek Academy, he would certainly be fought over.

Luo Ye, who had orchestrated this entire situation, was quite happy to see it unfold.

After all, whether he went to Spirit Hall or another academy made no real difference to Luo Ye. With the diary, he could completely guide their actions from the shadows as the mastermind behind the scenes.

While Luo Ye manipulated everything, Zhao Wuji also went to find Flender and told him what had happened that day.

After hearing Zhao Wuji's account, Flender's expression immediately became extremely strange.

"So you're saying that you got excited at the sight of talent and wanted to personally test them, only to be taken down by five little brats working together?"

Zhao Wuji's face darkened at once, and he said furiously, "I already told you, it was because I was careless. I never expected that bastard Luo Ye to have such powerful Spiritual Power."

"If I had not been too careless, and if not for his soul skill and that powerful Spiritual Power, then even with another Dai Mubai added in, I could not possibly have lost to them."

Zhao Wuji shot Flender a fierce glare.

The reason he had not concealed the details of the assessment was to make Flender better understand the talent of Luo Ye and the others. Yet Flender still mocked him. How could he possibly tolerate that?

Flender cleared his throat twice and said with a smile, "All right, all right, I understand."

"But according to you, Luo Ye's Spiritual Power was already strong enough to leave even you mentally muddled. Isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

Zhao Wuji shook his head and said with complete certainty, "I guarantee that even if it had been you, the outcome would have been exactly the same as mine."

Flender looked at him skeptically, unable for a moment to tell whether Zhao Wuji was lying to save face.

According to Zhao Wuji, Luo Ye was not even thirteen yet. Even if his martial soul was his eyes and might enhance his Spiritual Power, it should not have been powerful to such an extent.

Unfortunately, Yu Xiaogang was not at Shrek Academy. Otherwise, they could have asked him.

Given Yu Xiaogang's research into martial soul theory, he would surely be able to see the reason.

It seemed he still needed to find a way to bring Yu Xiaogang to Shrek Academy. With his help, nurturing these geniuses would become much easier.

As he thought this, Flender also said somewhat listlessly, "Five genius students arrived all at once. The difficulty of teaching them has more than doubled."

Zhao Wuji nodded in agreement.

"Anyone with exceptional talent is almost always extremely arrogant, just like Dai Mubai back then. It took so long to completely crush his arrogance and make him obedient."

"The talents of those five are hardly inferior to Dai Mubai's. Luo Ye's talent even far surpasses his, not to mention Ning Rongrong, who comes from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"If we do not find a way to temper their arrogance first, who knows how much trouble they may cause us in the future?"

Zhao Wuji paused here, then looked at Flender and asked, "How about meeting them first? Observe their personalities, so we can tailor the remedy to the problem afterward."

Faced with this suggestion, Flender decisively shook his head and refused.

"No. Let's leave them hanging for now."

"If we act too warmly toward them, they will definitely think we need them. Only by remaining calm, even occasionally showing a little disdain and dissatisfaction, can we suppress them more effectively."

Zhao Wuji gave Flender a thumbs-up. It was impossible to tell whether he was praising or mocking him as he said, "As expected, you're the one with the ideas."

Flender said nothing more, merely thinking of Yu Xiaogang.

He had learned this method from Yu Xiaogang. A world-famous good-for-nothing who had nevertheless won the hearts of Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong naturally relied on tactics like these.
