Taking the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, Shao Siyuan Already Had Someone in Her Heart?

Dai Mubai had long found Ning Rongrong, this spoiled young lady, unpleasant. His heart had always been weighed down by the certainty of his miserable death a few years from now. How could he tolerate someone of equally noble status, yet carefree and endlessly pampered, appearing before him?

Jealousy—that was the root of his hatred for Ning Rongrong.

"White Tiger Possession!"

"Dai Mubai, what are you trying to do?!"

Panic rose in Ning Rongrong's heart. Though she was arrogant and domineering, she was not stupid. How could an auxiliary-system Soul Grandmaster possibly defeat a power attack-system Soul Elder?

Besides, as the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, how could Ning Rongrong not know the surname and inherited martial soul of the Star Luo imperial family?

Damn Flender. He wanted to use the Star Luo imperial family to suppress her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Did he not see whether Dai Mubai, that worthless prince, was worthy of it?

Ning Rongrong's thoughts raced. Just as she was about to expose Dai Mubai's sore spot, Oscar suddenly stepped forward and stood in front of her.

"Dean, Boss Dai."

Oscar flashed a lecherous smile and shot Dai Mubai and Flender a meaningful look.

Having spent years frequenting brothels with Oscar, how could Dai Mubai fail to understand? It was the classic routine of playing the hero to save a beauty, the most effective way to win a young girl's heart.

"I'll give Xiao Ao this much face. Ning Rongrong, remember this—if not for..."

"Who the hell needs you, you bastard, to give me face?"

Ning Rongrong was merely domineering, not foolish. Dai Mubai's expression instantly darkened. As a Star Luo prince without direct succession rights, he had heard words like "bastard" and "mongrel" far too often under his elder brother's arrangement.

Ning Rongrong's words were practically tugging on the whiskers of this Evil Eye White Tiger. He absolutely could not tolerate it.

[Love Douluo Shao Siyuan. Her martial soul, the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, is the king of Immortal Herbs. It governs life and death and seizes souls. Due to her playful nature and young age, her Soul Power Level is relatively low, hence this ranking.]

[Reward: All Soul Ring Year Limits increased by eight hundred years. One Lovesick Heartbreak Red.]

Dai Mubai was just about to strike Ning Rongrong directly when the Golden Ranking's announcement interrupted him.

Now, whenever the Golden Ranking made an announcement, every faction and Soul Master on the continent would put aside everything they were doing.

The Power Ranking's assessment would bring earth-shattering changes to the balance and future direction of forces throughout the Douluo Continent!

Yet the Golden Ranking's evaluation of Shao Siyuan left the triumphant Yu Xiaogang frozen in place.

What did it mean, playful?

What did it mean, young?

Was it saying that the only reason a level ninety-one Titled Douluo, whose combat power surpassed that of a level ninety-five Super Douluo, ranked only this high was because she was playful and young?!

Then if she actually worked hard, or simply grew a few years older, what would the rest of them Soul Masters even cultivate for?

Spirit Hall, Worship Hall.

Qing Luan Douluo was stunned. In truth, her judgment had been the same as Yu Xiaogang's. Great Wall Academy ought to be a reclusive faction, and Shao Siyuan should have been its strongest member.

But the Golden Ranking's evaluation left all the Enshrined in the Worship Hall dumbfounded.

"Young. Playful."

"This Great Wall Academy is rather interesting."

Light Feather Douluo chuckled. Of course, experts of their caliber still did not take Great Wall Academy seriously.

In terms of foundation, no faction on the Douluo Continent could possibly compare to even one-tenth of Spirit Hall!

"Perhaps I've spent too long without going out. The rankings on this Power Ranking are becoming more and more interesting."

Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke slowly. As Spirit Hall's second-strongest expert, a level ninety-eight Super Douluo, this was the first time he had so deeply doubted his own experience and judgment.

That chrysanthemum and that little ghost from the Elders' Hall were indeed weak—but only compared to the few Enshrined. Yet on the Golden Ranking, they could only rank at the very bottom.

Could it be that the skies over this continent were truly about to change?

"Keep watching. She should send someone to investigate."

"Yes, Great Enshrined."

Within Shrek Academy, Even under Dai Mubai's intimidation, Ning Rongrong still burst into laughter. Her whole body trembled with mirth as she pointed at Yu Xiaogang's deadpan face and laughed without stopping.

"What kind of bullshit Master is that? Stop analyzing already, will you?"

"Ning Rongrong!"

Soul rings appeared around Tang San as Blue Silver Grass swayed in the wind, baring its fangs and claws.

He stood shoulder to shoulder with Dai Mubai, determined to teach Ning Rongrong a proper lesson and avenge his teacher.

Oscar hesitated for a moment, but ultimately backed away in silence. Before leaving, he hypocritically said, "Rongrong, you're being far too disrespectful toward the teachers."

Ning Rongrong took two steps back and instinctively turned a pleading gaze toward Xiao Wu, her dormmate.

But Xiao Wu merely gave her an indifferent glance before turning her eyes toward her beloved brother.

Even if Ning Rongrong were beaten half to death, she would probably only care whether her brother's hand hurt.

At the critical moment, Flender stepped forward, patted Yu Xiaogang on the shoulder, and ordered Tang San and Dai Mubai to fall back.

He wanted to use the Star Luo imperial family's influence to contend with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, but it would be best if everyone came out satisfied. That was Flender's style—a shrewd businessman through and through.

Flender believed that by defusing the situation, Ning Rongrong would surely be deeply grateful to him. If he could then secure some investment from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, wouldn't that be wonderful!

In the Extreme North, within Great Wall Academy.

Shao Siyuan stared at the Golden Ranking's assessment of her with an indignant expression.

"What do you mean? How was I being playful? I rose a full two levels in three years!"

"Excluding the Soul Rings you absorbed?"

"Uh, one level..."

Shao Siyuan answered Su Han's question somewhat guiltily.

Su Han sighed helplessly. Due to Douluo Continent's lack of resources, the Soul Ring Shao Siyuan had absorbed had only come from a ninety-thousand-year-old soul beast.

But it had also been an Immortal Herb that cultivated into a soul beast, making it extremely compatible with her. At the time, it had directly raised her Soul Power to the peak of Rank 91. Yet two or three years had passed, and Shao Siyuan had not broken through even a single rank.

"The Golden Ranking has given you the reward. Just consume this Lovesick Heartbreak Red."

At this point, Su Han paused.

He suddenly recalled that the Immortal Herb known as Lovesick Heartbreak Red could only be plucked by someone who had fallen for another person, whose love was utterly pure and free of impurities—the kind of love that would never part even through life after life.

How could Shao Siyuan, a summoned character who had only arrived in this world three years ago, possibly possess such a thing?

Golden light flowed across the Golden Ranking, and a palm-sized flower appeared. It resembled a white peony yet had no leaves, and its exquisite beauty was impossible to look away from.

Its white petals were streaked with crimson threads as red as blood, creating a striking and dazzling contrast.

Its stem, however, was directly connected to a pitch-black stone.

"This flower requires..."

Su Han had just wanted to explain it to Shao Siyuan when the Lovesick Heartbreak Red suddenly emitted a gorgeous, dazzling crimson light. As Shao Siyuan spat out a mouthful of blood, it was plucked directly.

Shao Siyuan parted her cherry lips and swallowed it in one gulp.

Before Su Han could wonder why Shao Siyuan had been able to pluck the Lovesick Heartbreak Red, her aura began soaring rapidly.
