That night, in Tang San's dormitory.
Xiao Ao was sleeping deeply when a slip of paper suddenly flew in from outside.
Tang San sprang up and caught the paper.
He quickly chased after it, only to find no one outside.
Holding the paper, he murmured, "Dad! Why won't you help me? You came here yourself, so why didn't you kill the person who poses the greatest threat to me? Aren't you a Titled Douluo?"
No one answered him.
In the end, he could only return to his room helplessly.
He opened the note Tang Hao had thrown in and read what was written on it.
His eyes gradually reddened. Finally, he crumpled the note into a ball.
He murmured, "Why? Aren't you the Clear Sky Douluo? Aren't you the one who could kill the Pope? Instead of killing him, you're letting him keep lording it over me?"
Ever since Tang San had met Feng Hao, he had spent the past six years living under Feng Hao's shadow. By now, Tang San no longer possessed the same temperament as in the original story.
And when he thought of how his father was clearly a Titled Douluo yet had not come to help him, resentment welled up even more strongly in his heart.
Before, he could still comfort himself by saying Tang Hao had things to do and was too busy.
But today, Tang Hao had come here in person and still had not made a move against Feng Hao.
He had even told Tang San to study properly under Feng Hao, saying Feng Hao was not from Spirit Hall and that it had all been a misunderstanding before.
Of course, he now knew Feng Hao was not from Spirit Hall.
But the issue was not whether Feng Hao belonged to Spirit Hall. The issue was that he was a terrifyingly powerful genius.
If he did not eliminate him, then he would spend the rest of his life beneath Feng Hao's shadow.
He was unwilling to accept that!
He was a transmigrator, with the memories of his past life and so many supreme techniques from the Tang Sect.
And yet?
He could not even beat a local native?
Tang San himself had not noticed that, without realizing it, he had begun to hate Tang Hao.
Tang Hao himself had never expected that what he believed was helping Tang San would instead have the opposite effect.
Feng Hao, who had already returned to his room, saw everything happening in Tang San's dormitory clearly.
"Looks like I can only keep you around to farm missions," Feng Hao murmured.
Feng Hao could actually understand Tang San's changes.
After all, he was the protagonist!
Now that Feng Hao had stolen all the spotlight, Tang San was naturally especially unwilling to live in his shadow.
If Tang San himself knew that he had originally been the protagonist, he would probably be even more furious!
After tonight, Feng Hao could cultivate peacefully for several years.
For the time being, he no longer needed to worry about Tang Hao.
As long as he did not kill Tang San now, there was nothing Tang Hao could do, no matter what.
After a night had passed.
The next morning.
Outside the cafeteria.
Dai Mubai and the others were heading over to eat when they saw Xiao Wu and the others approaching from not far away.
Xiao Ao and Ma Hongjun were dumbstruck.
"Wow! Three beauties joined our school all at once this time. Even if we can't pursue them, at least they're a feast for the eyes!" Ma Hongjun exclaimed.
"Boss Dai, they seem to be walking this way," Oscar said as he noticed Zhu Zhuqing and the others coming toward them.
"Boss Dai, I think Zhu Zhuqing is looking at you. Could she be interested in you too? Boss Dai, you're really something. Your charm is just too great," Ma Hongjun said enviously.
He had always envied Dai Mubai's and Oscar's looks.
Especially Dai Mubai. He was handsome, rich, and powerful.
What woman would not be smitten with someone like that?
"Brothers, keep it low-key! Low-key!" Dai Mubai said with a smile.
Naturally, he was very pleased. Zhu Zhuqing was his fiancée, so of course she would look at him.
Although it had been a little awkward when Zhu Zhuqing caught him that day, such things were nothing unusual among the Royal Family.
He believed that as long as he cleaned up his act for a while, he would be able to make Zhu Zhuqing utterly devoted to him.
Since Zhu Zhuqing and the others were walking toward them, Dai Mubai and the others decided to stop and wait for her.
Listening to the others discuss this, Tang San felt strangely empty inside.
He felt as though something was missing.
Women?
Looking at the three beautiful girls, he could not help thinking, If Feng Hao weren't around, how many beauties would be drawn to my talent?
It was all because of Feng Hao. Feng Hao's existence had made him look like a clown.
The more he thought about it, the more he hated Feng Hao. And the more he hated him, the more restless he became.
After all, nothing was more unbearable than seeing the person you hated living well right in front of you, even better than you were.
Very soon, Zhu Zhuqing and the other two reached them.
Dai Mubai adjusted his hair and looked at the approaching group with an ostentatious air.
"Zhuqing!"
Dai Mubai greeted her eagerly.
"Third Prince, please call me by my full name. This is the Marriage Cancellation Agreement I prepared. I hope the Third Prince will grant my wish," Zhu Zhuqing said coolly, handing an agreement to Dai Mubai.
"What? A Marriage Cancellation Agreement?"
Dai Mubai felt as if he had misheard.
Seeing that he did not accept it for a long while, Zhu Zhuqing said, "Please accept it, Third Prince."
"Why? Because of what happened that day?" Dai Mubai asked unwillingly.
"We are not suitable for each other. I hope the Third Prince will grant my wish," Zhu Zhuqing said.
"We're not suitable? Zhuqing, this marriage arrangement was made by our elders. It isn't for us to decide. Give me a chance! From now on, I'll never mess around again," Dai Mubai promised.
"Our elders made it, so we can't decide? I don't know whether you can make your own decisions. But I, Zhu Zhuqing, can make my own."
"I've already given you the agreement. Whether you sign it is up to you, but from now on, we have nothing to do with each other. I hope you won't disturb me."
After saying that, Zhu Zhuqing turned and walked directly into the cafeteria.
Dai Mubai stood there blankly, holding the agreement in his hand.
Damn it, how had it come to this?
Dai Mubai had been overjoyed moments ago, but now his face had completely fallen.
Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Tang San were also stunned.
Dai Mubai, who had been so high-spirited just a moment ago, wilted in an instant.
They had not expected Dai Mubai to actually have a marriage engagement with Zhu Zhuqing.
No wonder Dai Mubai had been preparing to settle down.
And just now, they had heard Zhu Zhuqing call Dai Mubai the Third Prince.
They simply did not know which country's prince Dai Mubai was.
But given Dai Mubai's current state, they were not in a position to ask.
At that moment, Feng Hao also arrived.
Seeing the four of them standing there, he asked, "What's going on with you? Why are you standing here spacing out instead of going inside?"
"It's nothing. We're going in now," Dai Mubai said, putting away the agreement and trying his best to calm himself.
As Feng Hao entered the cafeteria, Xiao Wu waved at him and said, "Brother Feng Hao, come over quickly."
The three beauties were sitting together, with one seat left just for Feng Hao.
