Tang San, Your Face and Neck Aren't the Same Color

Three years passed.

Xiao Wu had grown into a graceful young woman.

Ye Ying was equally outstanding.

He stood 1.85 meters tall.

Drinking milk tea every day had boosted his attributes.

He had plenty of muscle where muscle should be.

Not in an excessively exaggerated way, but he radiated a sense of strength.

When touched, the contours of his muscles could be faintly felt.

A simple white T-shirt and black trousers, with a belt set with twenty-four white jade gemstones around his waist.

There was only one impression.

Sunshine.

Extremely sunny.

A sunny, cheerful young man!

Why say that?

Because his outward appearance was completely different from who he really was.

No one knew what he was thinking inside.

The contrast between his exterior and interior was enormous.

At this point, Xiao Wu and Ye Ying were only the tiniest bit less attractive than the readers.

Tang San had also grown into something resembling a person.

They had graduated.

Who knew how many intermediate Soul Master Academies had come after hearing of them, begging to take Ye Ying and the other two into their academies.

Especially Ye Ying.

Two purple Soul Rings.

Who wouldn't be dazzled by that?

Unfortunately, Ye Ying rejected them all.

Ye Ying was going to Shrek Academy.

Take them all—

the men would be dealt with, and the women taken away.

He would pass through a garden of countless flowers without letting a single one escape.

Shrek Academy was in Suotuo City.

Suotuo City was a major city.

This could be seen from the fact that its Spirit Hall was configured as a third-rank Spirit Hall branch.

It was known as the granary of Barak.

There were two most important cities within the Balak Kingdom.

One was Barack City, the capital where Barak King Kundela resided.

It was the political and economic center of the entire Balak Kingdom.

The other city lay in the center of the most fertile Lima Plain within the Balak Kingdom.

It was just past noon, and the blazing sun scorched the earth.

Three young people entered Suotuo City through its western gate.

They looked as though they had only just come of age.

They carried no luggage with them: one man and two women.

The young man in the middle had a layered fringe hairstyle that fell past his brows.

He wore an outrageously flashy pink T-shirt, black knee-length shorts, and a Soul Guide Storage Belt set with twenty-four gemstones around his waist.

His well-defined, muscular calves were exposed.

One look was enough to tell that he exercised regularly.

Paired with a pair of white sneakers, he looked sunny!

The young woman in the middle had a long scorpion braid that naturally hung down to her calves.

Her well-developed chest was wrapped in a pink top, gently trembling with every step she took, her slender waist was exposed, small enough to be held in one hand, the envy of countless people, while a large hand wrapped around it from the left.

Her long, slender legs were likewise exposed, covered only by a pair of denim shorts.

A perfect golden ratio.

Her left hand held a pink umbrella, shielding the two of them from the scorching sunlight.

The woman on the far right was also wearing clothes, with a fox perched on her right shoulder.

These three were Ye Ying, Xiao Wu, and Tang San, who had come from Notting City.

"We've finally reached Suotuo City,"

Xiao Wu finally let out a long breath, "I'm exhausted,"

Tang San agreed as well, "Exactly. It's so hot that my makeup's melted,"

She wiped her face, Ye Ying glanced at her, "Next time, why not just put a layer of flour on your face?"

"The effect would look about the same."

Tang San shot Ye Ying a glare, "How could that be the same?"

"Makeup is makeup, flour is flour,"

"If flour gets wet on your face, wouldn't it turn into paste?!"

Ye Ying immediately burst out laughing, [Tang San's cosmetic powder had gotten mixed with sweat...]

"Change powder to flour for me,"

[Modification successful. Powder changed to flour. Points +1. Current Points: 10,000.]

[Tang San's cosmetic flour had gotten mixed with sweat...]

The modification was complete, and Tang San immediately sensed that something was wrong, Why did her hand feel so sticky?

She scratched with her right hand, and it came away sticky, covered in white flour.

Xiao Wu took one look and burst out laughing, "Tang San,"

"You bought fake makeup. Isn't this just flour?!"

"And it's so hot—mixed with your sweat, the sun's practically cooked the flour into paste!"

Tang San hurriedly rubbed her face hard, wiping all the paste from it, "The people in Notting City... I think they already have a death wish,"

"They actually sold me flour as cosmetic powder!"

Ye Ying's voice rang out again, "Tang San, your face and neck aren't the same color..."

Tang San:!!!

She hurriedly looked, The flour on her neck had occasionally been shielded by Xiao Wu's umbrella, so it had not yet turned into paste, while all the paste on her face had been wiped away.

"Ahhh!"

Tang San felt like she was about to go crazy, She took out a towel from her storage Soul Guide Bracelet, and vigorously wiped the flour mixed with sweat from her neck, along with her face.

She had just put on makeup, and before she had even met anyone after entering Suotuo City, it was all gone.

[Congratulations, you have reached 10,000 Points. You can purchase a Soul Mantra that doubles your strength.]

The system's voice suddenly rang out in Ye Ying's mind.

Ye Ying ignored it outright.

A Soul Mantra that doubled his strength?

He had no use for it for the time being.

He had worked so hard to save up 10,000 Points.

There were plenty of things he would need to change later on.

If he spent it all now, what would he use afterward?

The host of a poor system had to grow up early.

But then the system's voice rang out again.

[Reward: the daily three modification opportunities to change one character have been upgraded to changing two characters. However, when modifying names, there is no character limit.]

[In the exchange shop, the minor restriction reduction that increases the number of characters modifiable per modification opportunity has been upgraded to two.]

[New items have been added to the system shop.]

Three system notifications suddenly appeared in Ye Ying's mind.

"Reaching 10,000 Points lets me modify two characters?"

"Does that mean I'll be able to modify three characters once I reach 100,000 Points?"

"And four characters once I reach a million Points?"

Ye Ying suddenly felt as though he had grasped one of the system's rules.

[You're overthinking it. I simply felt it was time for an upgrade. Did you think you were supposed to keep saving your Points without spending them?]

Ye Ying: ...

Changing two characters was a massive improvement.

It gave him far, far more room to work with.

The one-character restriction had ultimately been too limiting.

And the part about modifying names was especially convenient as well.

There was no limit.

That was understandable, too. A name consisted of a surname and a given name.

They corresponded one by one.

For example, Nicholas Zhao Si.

His surname was Si, and his given name was Nicholas Zhao.

Then there was Oscar.

His surname was Scar, and his given name was O.

That was why everyone at Shrek Academy called him Little O.

Flender's surname should be Fl, while his given name was Ender.

In the original story, Liu Erlong had called him Boss Flender.

His future son would be named Vladimir.

Reasonable. Perfectly reasonable!

Ye Ying looked toward the system shop.

He wanted to see what new items had appeared there.

[Minor Restriction Reduction: Modification Character Limit Increased to Two: 100 Points]
