"Yo! You freshmen?"
"Want some grilled sausages?"
"Only five Copper Soul Coins each!"
"If you buy three at once—"
"It'll only cost ten Copper Soul Coins!"
Oscar, sporting a full beard, called out enthusiastically.
"A level twenty-nine Food System Soul Grandmaster?"
"Heh! Interesting!"
"You're a student of Shrek Academy, aren't you?"
Li Xiaoyao smiled and asked despite already knowing the answer.
Oscar was quite surprised by those words.
Before Oscar could speak, Li Xiaoyao picked up a sausage and examined it with great interest.
Seeing this, Li Yusong's expression darkened. Just as he was about to say something, Dai Mubai's voice came from behind them.
"Oscar! How many times have I told you!"
"You're not allowed to sell sausages in the academy—"
"If you want to sell sausages, go sell them outside the academy!"
Ning Rongrong: "???"
Zhu Zhuqing: "???"
Aside from those who knew the reason, both girls were curious.
Wasn't he just selling sausages in the academy—
What was the big deal?
Did Dai Mubai really need to make such a fuss?
Could it be that this bearded uncle had offended Dai Mubai?
"Oscar, don't just stand there like an idiot!"
"Make another sausage and show the freshmen."
Noticing everyone's baffled looks, Dai Mubai directly exposed Oscar's secret.
After all, as the saying went, better a fellow cultivator than oneself.
It was better for Oscar to embarrass himself than for Dai Mubai to make a fool of himself.
"Dai the Boss... you!"
Oscar's face fell as he looked at Dai Mubai with deep resentment.
You were so noble, so impressive.
Were all of you trying to smash his livelihood?
Was it easy for him to earn a little money?
Li Yusong could no longer stand watching and spoke up.
"Oscar, you should listen to Mubai!"
"This old man has told you several times too. Stop tricking newly arrived freshmen like this."
"You're only a Support System Soul Master with no combat ability. Stop trying to use petty tricks to swindle people. If you provoke someone you can't afford to offend and no one is around to protect you, the only one who'll suffer will be you!"
Oscar gave a helpless, bitter smile.
"Ah! Teacher Li! I understand!"
Since even Teacher Li Yusong had spoken, he could only reluctantly begin chanting his incantation—
"I Have a Big Sausage!"
The next second, a steaming sausage with the aroma of meat appeared out of thin air.
"Disgusting..."
"Pervert..."
The moment they heard Oscar say, "I Have a Big Sausage," Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing instinctively stepped back several paces, deliberately putting some distance between themselves and Oscar.
"Hey! Aren't you way too disgusting?"
Ning Rongrong frowned tightly, her delicate little face filled with disgust.
"It really is disgusting!"
Zhu Zhuqing's cool eyes were full of revulsion. She was unwilling to let her gaze rest on that sausage for even another second, as though looking at it once more would make her feel sick.
Stared at by Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's disgusted gazes, Oscar hurriedly stepped forward to explain.
"I had no choice!"
"That's simply the nature of a Food System Martial Soul. If the food I make is to display its soul skill effects, I have to recite the corresponding Soul Incantation."
"What I said just now was required by the Soul Incantation. I absolutely had no other filthy thoughts."
"Besides, the quality of my sausages can absolutely withstand scrutiny!"
Ning Rongrong raised a brow and glanced at the sausage, her tone still full of distaste.
"Even if it's a Soul Incantation, couldn't you choose one that sounds better?"
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect also had Food System Soul Masters.
Though chanting incantations was perfectly normal, she had never heard such a disgusting Soul Incantation before.
Zhu Zhuqing did not respond from the side—
But her expression clearly showed that she agreed with Ning Rongrong.
"I want to!"
"But I can't change it at all!"
Oscar scratched his head, looking utterly helpless.
Shrek Academy had finally gotten a few girls.
He had originally wanted to get acquainted with the two junior girls.
But judging from the current situation—
He was probably about to lose his right to seek a girlfriend this year.
However, at that moment—
Li Xiaoyao calmly devoured the entire sausage. A little oil still glistened at the corner of his mouth as he smacked his lips and praised it.
"Mmm! Your sausage is pretty good!"
"Tastes like chicken, nice and crunchy!"
Although Oscar's Soul Incantation was a little disgusting—
The taste was actually quite good!
Compared with the food on Blue Star made with "technology and ruthless additives," Oscar's grilled sausage was practically a genuine product made with a conscience.
After thinking for a moment, Li Xiaoyao added.
"Although the Soul Incantation is disgusting, this sausage's effects are quite good. It can speed up wound healing, restore stamina and Soul Power, ease fatigue and pain, and stave off hunger as well!"
"Without a doubt, this is an excellent food!"
To be fair, Oscar's sausages really were quite good.
They were no worse than food slaughtered, sold, and stir-fried fresh on the spot.
If these were sold at a Blue Star market, they would sell out in minutes.
"Junior, you know your stuff!"
Oscar looked delighted!
It hadn't been easy, really not easy.
At last, someone did not despise his incantation!
Oscar practically wanted to become sworn brothers with Li Xiaoyao.
Li Yusong nodded approvingly from the side as well.
A young man with great talent who was also so understanding.
Who wouldn't like him?
Seeing Li Xiaoyao wolf down another two sausages, Oscar looked at Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing with great anticipation.
Li Xiaoyao had already eaten three sausages. What about you two girls?
"Hmph! Disgusting guy, don't even think about it!"
"I, Ning Rongrong, would rather starve to death or jump off a building than eat your sausages!"
Ning Rongrong, who had always acted like a good girl in front of Li Xiaoyao, furrowed her brows deeply.
She took half a step back and firmly shook her head in refusal.
She could tolerate eating street food.
But asking her to eat something this disgusting—
That was absolutely impossible.
If Li Xiaoyao were not here, she would have blown up on the spot!
After all, Ning Rongrong's title as the Little Demoness—
Had not been earned for nothing.
Although Zhu Zhuqing said nothing beside her, she shared Ning Rongrong's attitude and kept a certain distance from that disgusting Oscar.
No one tried to force them.
After all, Oscar's incantation, "I Have a Big Sausage," was simply far too suggestive.
Especially in front of two girls...
After that little interlude, Li Xiaoyao and the others continued onward.
Oscar was left behind, utterly dejected.
His chance to get acquainted with the two junior girls had gone down the drain.
He had even earned their disgust.
As though he had suddenly remembered something—
Oscar shuddered all over.
Then he shouted loudly.
"Student Li!"
"Three grilled sausages cost ten Copper Soul Coins!"
He really wanted to chase after them.
But—
Li Xiaoyao was the first person who had not despised his incantation.
If he chased after them to ask for money, would that make him seem completely tactless?
