Moyuan felt nothing as he looked at Huo Yuhao, who was kneeling on the ground, covering his eyes, and Tang Ya, who stood beside him with a look of shock.

Having read the original work, he knew that after Huo Yuhao tasted the benefits of cheating this time, he would completely abandon his morals and gradually align himself with Tang San.

Cheating was despicable for others, but for them, it was natural, even something they reveled in, cheating again and again.

As for why he exposed them this time, Moyuan had thought a lot before acting. It was nothing more than weighing the pros and cons because of Huo Yuhao's identity as a child of destiny.

But at the last moment, Moyuan understood. So what if he was a child of destiny? He was a transmigrator! He came here to target the child of destiny!

Upper Auspicious Sign: Mandated by Heaven, eternal prosperity.

Lower Auspicious Sign: Man proposes, but Heaven disposes!

Don't talk about destiny. The scorching and poisonous Black King's Blood flowing in his veins wouldn't let him believe in destiny, fate, or such nonsense! He only believed in man's will!

At the same time, after Moyuan and Han Ruoruo exposed Huo Yuhao's report, the thousands of students present who had recovered from their shock erupted in an uproar. They pointed at Huo Yuhao and whispered amongst themselves.

They didn't doubt the truth of Moyuan and Han Ruoruo's words.

The red uniform was enough to silence all conspiracy theories.

On the Battle Soul Arena.

"Beibei, did your junior brother really cheat?"

Xu Sanshi's face was extremely grim, but he still asked Beibei, whose expression was solemn, hoping to hear a different answer.

Beibei's expression was complicated. He opened his mouth, wanting to explain something, but in the end, only a helpless sigh escaped.

"Yes..."

"Good, good, good!"

Seeing Beibei's reaction, Xu Sanshi, disappointed, laughed in anger. He put away his martial soul, took out a jade bottle from his soul tool, and threw it to Beibei.

"I misjudged you. Cheating in a one-on-one fight, and you still consider me a friend? Didn't you want the Xuan Water Pill? I'll give it to you, but from now on, we'll go our separate ways."

After speaking, Xu Sanshi no longer looked at the stunned Beibei. He turned and strode directly off the stage.

He was very disappointed and angry now.

If one cheated in a one-on-one fight, even a slight mistake could lead to injury, and it was possible to be crippled or even die.

He didn't believe Beibei and Tang Ya didn't know this, yet they still did it...

Xu Sanshi could only feel disappointment.

Looking at the jade bottle in his hand and smelling its faint fragrance, Beibei was filled with regret. He knew he was wrong, but it was too late now.

All they could do now was pay the price for their mistakes...

In the stands, Huo Yuhao, who was kneeling on the ground, was filled with fear and panic. The countless discussions around him made him on the verge of collapse.

He desperately wanted to stand up and point at Moyuan and Han Ruoruo, questioning them: Why did you expose me? Why did you meddle in other people's business! Compared to us, are Xu Sanshi and you closer?!

But Huo Yuhao didn't dare. The scarlet blood in his hands reflected a scene that terrified him to the bone.

In the dark, lightless night, he stood beneath a towering black snowy mountain, the biting cold wind making him tremble.

Before him, a dazzling golden light flashed in the darkness, and then he saw a sight he would never forget in his life.

A dragon!

A black dragon!

A black dragon that blotted out the sky, its wings adorned with skulls, beautiful and terrifying!

This horrifying image flashed by, followed by a crushing dragon's might that surged into his sea of consciousness! If not for the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm reacting in time, He probably wouldn't be kneeling here now, but lying on the ground, ready for a funeral service.

Moyuan glanced at Huo Yuhao, who was kneeling and covering his face, trying to avoid reality in this manner. He shook his head slightly.

"Senior Sister, let's go. There's nothing more to see in this soul fight."

"Okay."

Han Ruoruo looked at the dejected Beibei in the Battle Soul Arena, then at the bewildered and clueless Tang Ya. She sighed inwardly and turned to follow Moyuan.

She had nothing to say to Tang Ya; they weren't familiar with each other. The only thing that made her uncomfortable was that Beibei had stooped to such a despicable act as cheating in a one-on-one fight.

As a close friend of Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister of the Inner Court, she knew everything about the relationship between Zhang Lexuan and Beibei. She had initially felt sorry for Zhang Lexuan and wanted to help her.

Now, it seemed she needed to persuade Zhang Lexuan to give up on her feelings.

As they walked out of the Battle Soul Arena, Moyuan and Han Ruoruo were stopped by someone at the entrance.

"Big Brother, and Senior Sister Han, thank you both for exposing Huo Yuhao just now. You prevented Beibei and the others from making a grave mistake."

Xu Sanshi bowed deeply to Moyuan and Han Ruoruo, thanking them sincerely. At the same time, he held out two bottles of pills to them.

"These are two bottles of Xuan Water Pills, as a token of my gratitude from Xu Sanshi. I hope you will accept them. I also hope you won't pursue Beibei's mistake further. He was just... he was just foolish for a moment; his nature isn't like this."

Moyuan couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

He truly lived up to being a good brother he had known for years. Even after being tricked by Beibei, despite his disappointment and anger, he was still thinking of Beibei...

Facing the gifts offered, Moyuan and Han Ruoruo did not refuse. After accepting the Xuan Water Pills, Moyuan patted Xu Sanshi's sturdy shoulder before leaving.

"Whether or not to forgive Beibei for his mistake is up to you, the victim, not us. We don't have time to dwell on these things."

Upon hearing this, Xu Sanshi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Then, he heard Moyuan continue, "Young man, sometimes blind devotion doesn't yield rewards. The more you give, the more you care. When you invest too much in someone, you become inseparable from them.

But at that point, you should really consider: do you truly like them, or do you care about the time and effort you've already invested?"

"There's a saying popular in my hometown: 'A simp simps until they have nothing left.' It's harsh, but it's true."

With that, Moyuan no longer paid attention to Xu Sanshi, who stood frozen in thought. He said these things because he thought Xu Sanshi was a decent person.

He was sentimental and loyal, willing to dedicate his life to Jiang Nannan due to guilt from his youth, and he had been taking care of Jiang Nannan's mother. Among the characters in Douluo II, Xu Sanshi was one of the few Moyuan held in high regard.

Whether Xu Sanshi could awaken from his delusion was up to him.

Walking along the wide avenue of Shrek Academy, the soft light emitted by the soul guide lamps cast upon Moyuan and Han Ruoruo, projecting two closely intertwined shadows behind them.

Han Ruoruo glanced at Moyuan beside her, a flicker of surprise in her eyes. She suppressed her smile and put on a serious expression, saying to Moyuan, "Junior Brother, I'm starting to suspect you lied to me."

"What?" Moyuan asked, confused. "What did I lie about?"

"You told me before that you've never been in a relationship. But based on what you just told Xu Sanshi, Senior Sister here can't believe that someone who's never dated would say something like that."

Moyuan chuckled helplessly. "Senior Sister, you're mistaken. The onlooker sees more clearly than the one involved. Sometimes, you can only see things more clearly when you're not caught up in them, right? It's the same with relationships."

"Is that so?"

Han Ruoruo suddenly leaned closer to Moyuan, so close that he could clearly see her slightly trembling, long eyelashes, and so close that her eyes reflected only his image.

Gazing at the handsome and almost ethereally beautiful face before her, she pursed her moist red lips, then curved them into a perfect arc.

Han Ruoruo extended a slender, jade-like finger, pointing at Moyuan. With a smile, she said, "Junior Brother, don't lie to me. Senior Sister may be naive, but I hate deceit the most."
