"Husband, if these aren't gifts for Yanyan, Ling Ling, and me, what are they for?" As Wu Xing's first woman, Su Ruoxi had long since bared herself to him completely. They understood each other perfectly, able to read each other's meaning with a single glance, yet even she was utterly confused now.
After engraving Dugu Yan's name onto her Jade Token, Wu Xing finally finished. He raised his head and smiled slowly. "Of course, they're for your husband to flip."
"Flip tokens?" The three women were even more bewildered.
Seeing that they did not understand, Wu Xing's face took on a sly smile. "Yes. You're all my women now, so from now on, whoever sleeps with me will be decided by flipping a token. That way, it's fair and just."
The three women froze at first, then their faces immediately flushed red like ripe apples.
They had never imagined that these beautiful Jade Tokens, engraved with their portraits, would be used by their man for something like this.
"Pah! Who wants to sleep with you?" Dugu Yan snapped back to her senses and spat fiercely at Wu Xing.
This bastard really had no good intentions. He had made them for his own selfish desires. She had even been looking forward to them just now.
"Haha." Wu Xing laughed. "If you're willing to do it together, that works too. I'll count these as gifts for you."
With a clatter, Su Ruoxi and Ye Lingling, who had been tightly clutching their Jade Tokens, hurriedly set them on the table in fright upon hearing his answer.
All three of them together?
Never mind whether they could let go of their inhibitions—even thinking about it was enough to make them die of embarrassment. How could they possibly agree?
Chapter 72: Dugu Yan's Temptation
"Let's go eat. Ignore that big bad guy."
Dugu Yan spat fiercely at Wu Xing again, then grabbed Su Ruoxi and Ye Lingling and headed outside.
Wu Xing did not mind at all. Smiling, he put the Jade Tokens from the table into the Diary Warehouse before following after them.
Since it was mealtime, the group drew countless looks and whispers from the students as they walked toward the dining hall.
As the academy's three most popular goddesses, the women drew the most attention wherever they went.
Yet these three goddesses, who had the greatest popularity, were now chatting and laughing with Wu Xing. Everyone wished they could take his place.
Of course, Wu Xing was also a notable figure in the academy. Quite a few female students secretly liked him and kept stealing glances his way.
However, those female students could not compare to the three women in looks. They were not even worthy of being supporting characters, merely standard passersby, so naturally they did not attract much of his attention.
Wu Xing's reaction delighted the three women. Their man might be somewhat flirtatious, but not just any girl could catch his eye.
After lunch, they did not return to the dormitory. Instead, they wandered around the academy, giving them something of the feeling of attending a university in his previous life.
Unfortunately, campus life in this world was nowhere near as varied as it had been in his previous life. There were no clubs or entertainment activities.
The only thing there was were several enormous arenas built on the field for everyone to exchange pointers and spar.
That made sense. In this world, strength was revered above all else. Every Soul Master focused on cultivation. Who had the spare time for such frivolous things? They would be better off using that time to raise their Soul Power.
Before they knew it, evening had arrived. Since they had to gather for training tomorrow, no one intended to stay out too late.
Wu Xing decisively took out the Jade Tokens he had carved that day and laid them on the table, smiling at the three women.
When the three women saw him take out the Jade Tokens, they thought of what he had said earlier. Their faces turned red, and their hearts grew nervous.
Su Ruoxi was slightly better off. She had always slept with her man before, so even if her token was drawn, she would not be overly worried.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were different. Along with their shyness, they also felt a hint of anticipation.
Wu Xing randomly mixed up the three Jade Tokens, casually picked one up, but did not rush to turn it over.
The moment he picked up a token, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling's nerves rose to their throats. They hoped he would draw their token, yet they were also afraid he would.
In short, they were deeply conflicted.
Once the atmosphere was right, Wu Xing finally flipped the Jade Token over under the three women's gazes.
Clack.
With a soft sound, the token turned over, revealing Dugu Yan's portrait.
Ye Lingling finally relaxed, not even noticing that her palms had grown sweaty.
Su Ruoxi also let out a breath. She could finally sleep peacefully tonight.
It was not that she did not like accompanying her man. She wished she could cling to him every day and sleep in his embrace every night. It was just that he was far too formidable in that regard, and she truly could not handle it.
When Dugu Yan saw that Wu Xing had drawn her token, her entire face turned as red as blood. Panicking, she said, "Wu Xing, this doesn't count. You didn't mix them properly just now. Do it again."
"Why doesn't it count? I was perfectly fair. I flipped it right in front of all of you." Wu Xing naturally would not listen to Dugu Yan's excuses.
If he wanted, he could draw whichever woman's token he wished, but he disdained doing that. Since he said it would be fair, it would be fair. He absolutely would not use Soul Power to cheat.
After all, he had to treat his women equally.
"I... you're bullying me. I'm not playing with you." Seeing that Wu Xing had made up his mind, Dugu Yan said this with a flushed face and made to run out of the room.
Wu Xing naturally would not let Dugu Yan escape. As the head of the household, if he could not even manage this, how would he hold beauties in both arms in the future?
With quick hands, he caught Dugu Yan's fair little hand. With a slight pull, he drew her into his embrace.
Unable to break free, Dugu Yan hurriedly looked toward Su Ruoxi and Ye Lingling, begging the two women for help.
"Hehe, Yanyan, since Husband drew your token, you should accompany him tonight," Su Ruoxi said with a giggle.
Seeing that Su Ruoxi was no help, Dugu Yan turned to Ye Lingling.
"Yanyan, Ruo Xi is right. I... I'll return to the dormitory first." Ye Lingling said with a red face, then hurriedly fled.
As Ye Lingling escaped, Su Ruoxi also understood what to do. After saying she would see them tomorrow, she left the room as well.
In the blink of an eye, only Dugu Yan and Wu Xing remained in the entire room.
Dugu Yan watched the two women leave and grew anxious. She tried to rise and follow them, but Wu Xing held her tightly, leaving her no way to escape.
"Hehe, Yan, stop dreaming of leaving." Wu Xing chuckled as he watched Dugu Yan struggle in his arms.
Hearing this, Dugu Yan stopped struggling, but the nervousness in her heart could not settle. She could even hear her heart pounding wildly.
Seeing the usually proud Dugu Yan become shy and timid, the contrast was undoubtedly fatal to a man's attraction. It instantly ignited the fire in Wu Xing's heart.
Still, he suppressed his impulse, took a deep breath, and said, "Do you really want to leave that badly?"
"I... I don't." Dugu Yan hurriedly shook her head. Though she was nervous, she still raised her head, afraid Wu Xing would misunderstand.
"If you're unwilling, you don't have to force yourself," Wu Xing continued. He knew that although Dugu Yan usually seemed bold and straightforward, she was even less capable of handling this sort of thing than Ye Lingling.
If she was not ready yet, Wu Xing would not force her.
"I... I'm not unwilling. I'm not forcing myself either." Dugu Yan answered anxiously, a glimmer of tears appearing at the corners of her eyes.
Compared to her shyness and nervousness, she was more afraid that Wu Xing would think she did not like him.
"Really?" Wu Xing asked with a smile in his eyes.
"Really..." Dugu Yan was so anxious that she was nearly crying.
Seeing that he had teased Dugu Yan to the point of tears, Wu Xing finally stopped. "Alright, I won't tease you anymore. I was just joking."
"Huh?" Dugu Yan opened her mouth, then finally noticed Wu Xing's mischievous smile. Ashamed, she buried her head in his chest and pounded him fiercely. "You... you're bullying me again."
"Then do you like me?" Wu Xing smiled as he caught her fair little hand.
"I... I do," Dugu Yan answered softly.
"Then look up." Wu Xing smiled.
Though embarrassed, Dugu Yan slowly raised her head. She met Wu Xing's burning, possessive gaze.
Before she could react, Wu Xing had already lowered his head and kissed her rosy lips.
"Mmph."
In an instant, Dugu Yan let out a soft moan, her body tensing.
Who knew how much time passed? Only when he noticed her breathing becoming increasingly unsteady did Wu Xing finally release her lips.
Dugu Yan was now breathing rapidly, her entire face flushed crimson. Even her crystalline white earlobes had taken on a breathtaking shade of red.
If it had not been for the fact that the timing was wrong, Wu Xing would have been unable to resist devouring this little beauty.
"Alright, it's late. Go bathe and sleep. We still have to gather tomorrow."
"...Mm, alright." Dugu Yan was somewhat dazed, but she quickly regained her senses. Rising in a hurry, she ran toward the bathroom on her long, beautiful legs, her scale-armored high heels clicking against the floor.
Watching Dugu Yan like this, Wu Xing's lips curved into another smile.
Chapter 73: Su Ruoxi's Bitter Cultivation
The next day.
Wu Xing and Dugu Yan stepped out of the room to find Su Ruoxi and Ye Lingling already waiting outside.
Upon seeing the two women, Dugu Yan's face reddened unconsciously. Remembering last night's embarrassing events, her snow-white legs beneath her azure short skirt pressed together instinctively.
Although nothing had happened last night, Wu Xing had held her as they slept, and naturally, he had not refrained from taking liberties.
How could Dugu Yan, who had never experienced anything between a man and a woman, not react? Before long, she was breathing heavily, her eyes hazy.
After discovering how sensitive this little beauty was, Wu Xing deliberately teased her for quite some time before finally letting her off.
As a result, Dugu Yan now felt a little afraid to face the two women, worried they would ask about it.
Fortunately, Su Ruoxi and Ye Lingling understood as well. Neither of them mentioned what had happened last night.
Still, Su Ruoxi found it somewhat strange. Judging by Yanyan's condition, it did not seem like she had been claimed.
After all, Su Ruoxi herself had been exhausted back then and had slept until the afternoon before waking. In contrast, apart from the shyness on Yanyan's face, there was no trace of fatigue.
After breakfast, they arrived at the gathering point, where everyone was already present.
When they saw Wu Xing arrive with the three women, they greeted him enthusiastically while, without exception, revealing envious expressions.
Having the academy's three great goddesses all to himself while keeping their relationship so harmonious—he was simply a role model for their generation.
Although their fathers and elders had many wives and concubines, they did not get along well. Open and covert struggles were unavoidable. A relationship as close as sisters simply did not exist.
Not long after they arrived, Instructor Yu Feng appeared as well.
After nodding to everyone and giving a few opening remarks, he led them into the Simulated Training room.
Considering that Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling had just joined the Second Team, and wanting the two women to quickly integrate into the team, Yu Feng lowered the difficulty of today's task.
Yet what he had not expected was that despite being new members, the two women's coordination was not lacking in the slightest. They dealt with the ten-thousand-year soul beast even more easily than before.
"As expected of First Team members. Their combat quality is truly high." Watching the ten-thousand-year soul beast dissipate in less than a few minutes, Yu Feng sighed inwardly.
Any one of them was beyond comparison with Second Team members. Of course, Wu Xing was an exception.
When Su Ruoxi saw Yanyan and Ling Ling perform so astonishingly, she was both surprised and anxious.
She was not jealous. She simply felt ashamed of her own strength and did not want to hold the team back.
"Since you have no issues with coordination, you will rest and recover for one month. After one month, you will head to Heaven Dou City for a three-month Soul Fighting tournament."
Yu Feng swept his gaze over everyone before continuing slowly, "During this month of rest, do not relax or grow complacent."
"Yes, Instructor Yu Feng," everyone replied at once.
"Mm, dismissed." Yu Feng nodded in satisfaction.
Seeing the performance of these team members, especially Wu Xing and the newly joined Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, he was confident that they could secure at least second place and contend for first in this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
After the team was dismissed, Su Ruoxi thought for a moment before saying to Wu Xing, "Husband, you should go back first with Yanyan and Ling Ling."
"What's wrong?" Wu Xing stopped and looked at Su Ruoxi.
"I want to train in the auxiliary Mimicry Training Ground," Su Ruoxi explained.
After seeing Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling's performance, she had made this decision. She had to reach level 40 Soul Power as soon as possible.
Wu Xing did not stop her. Instead, he asked with concern, "How long do you plan to train inside?"
"I don't know either." Su Ruoxi shook her head, then said, "I want to come out after reaching Soul Ancestor."
"Alright." Wu Xing agreed without further thought.
He understood Su Ruoxi's thoughts. Her sudden decision to undergo bitter cultivation must have been influenced by Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
Hearing this, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling immediately thought of something. They took several Cultivation Cards from the Diary Warehouse. "Ruo Xi, these are Soul Power Training Cards. Use them first."
"N-No need." Su Ruoxi declined the two women's kindness.
