"Young Dai is right. So what if the opponents number two?"
"Just take some potent medicine, seize their weakness, pin them to the wall, and bombard them relentlessly. With Young Dai's abilities, he'll definitely make them cry out!"
Bai Mu dropped his previous flattering disguise and spoke with pointed sarcasm.
"Fuck you! So it really was a trap you set!"
Dai Mubai's eyes instantly widened with fury.
"A trap? What trap?"
Tang San and the other two looked utterly confused, unable to make sense of the situation.
"In broad daylight, under the clear sky, don't go spouting nonsense!"
Bai Mu spread his hands, his face full of innocence.
"The Whale Rubber you gave me! And you still say you didn't set me up?"
Dai Mubai panted heavily as he directly questioned him.
"No, bro, did giving you a gift somehow become my fault?"
Bai Mu said in disbelief, "Was there something wrong with the Whale Rubber? Did I force you to use it? Or did I know you weren't up to the task and would definitely use it at night?"
"Besides, didn't your parents teach you as a child not to casually eat things strangers give you?"
"Even taking ten thousand steps back, if I hadn't given you the Whale Rubber, would you have given up on spending the night with those twins yesterday?"
"Did I force you to have fun?"
"And you're saying I harmed you? What the hell?"
Every word was reasonable, every sentence irrefutable.
Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing all cast contemptuous looks at Dai Mubai.
"You! You! You!"
Dai Mubai's face turned red with rage, but he could not get a word out as he pointed at Bai Mu.
"You what? I call you Young Dai out of respect, so stop putting yourself on a pedestal."
Bai Mu put on an angry expression. "This isn't your house, so stop falsely accusing people!"
"Then what about the room arrangements? How do you explain that? How did you know I regularly stayed in [Red Ocean]?"
Dai Mubai seized on another point in an attempt to refute him, not realizing that those words nailed his own coffin shut!
"Big brother, there were only a few rooms available to book."
Bai Mu looked at the two girls beside him and explained helplessly, "Sister Xiao Wu likes pink, and I don't like staying in a room full of green. So obviously, the only choice was to give Little Kitten [Green Parting] next to yours. Who the hell knew that a freak like you had made [Red Ocean] your permanent home?"
"Little Mu is right! The hotel rooms were so tight. What's wrong with arranging them that way?"
Hearing the familiar form of address, Xiao Wu, the easily persuaded Boss of Dorm Seven, immediately stepped forward.
Regularly stayed? Made it his home?
Zhu Zhuqing's heart sank. Her dear fiancé really was a libertine who knew how to enjoy life.
"Th-this, I..."
Dai Mubai's already sluggish brain crashed completely, and he had no idea how to argue back.
What made him feel the worst was that the more he spoke, the more thoroughly he hammered himself down!
"Young Master Dai, it's not that I want to say this!"
Bai Mu pressed his advantage. "You had a great time eating, using, and playing with what I gave you. Once you were done, aside from your legs going weak, nothing happened. You even smiled and told me that next time we went to the hotel, you'd treat us."
"And now you're jumping out and making accusations. Don't tell me you're just trying to dodge the bill?"
"Who wants to dodge the bill!"
With his brain still frozen, Dai Mubai instinctively snapped back.
"Oh? Is that so?"
Bai Mu placed a hand on Zhu Zhuqing's shoulder right in front of him and provocatively said, "Then... you'll treat us tonight?"
"Treat you—"
Wait!
Dai Mubai suddenly came to his senses. He had almost agreed to treat a "blondie" and his fiancée to a hotel.
He was the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire, and he had nearly cuckolded himself again!?
He stopped responding to Bai Mu and turned to Zhu Zhuqing instead. "Zhuqing, listen to my explanation!"
"Didn't you admit it yourself? What else is there to explain?"
Zhu Zhuqing stared at Dai Mubai, her eyes radiating bone-chilling cold.
"You... I..."
Dai Mubai clenched his fists and trembled with rage, his mouth hanging open for ages without producing a single word.
It seemed like he had hammered himself... a little too dead!
"To be falsely accused like this... sigh, life is so hard!"
At that moment, Bai Mu leaned closer to Little Kitten and sighed.
"Enough, your private grudges end here!"
The old man who had been happily watching the drama from the sidelines rebuked them at the right moment. "This is the entrance examination. Whatever hatred or grudges you have, vent them properly during the fourth trial's practical combat test later!"
Dai Mubai's eyes immediately lit up at those words.
Right! He was in charge of the fourth trial's practical combat test!
As long as he defeated Bai Mu then and kicked him out of Shrek, he would naturally have plenty of time to talk with Zhu Zhuqing and rebuild their relationship.
"Mubai, take them to the next trial."
The old man instructed him.
"Alright!"
Dai Mubai pulled himself together. Since he could not beat Bai Mu with words, he would let his fists speak for him shortly!
"Follow me."
He nodded to the group and led them into the academy.
"Little Mu, I haven't seen you in so long, and I never expected you to be so sharp-tongued. That was so satisfying!"
Just imagining herself in that situation made Xiao Wu feel immensely pleased.
After all, if someone had "wronged" her like that, with her temper, she would definitely have let them taste her Explosive Kill Eight-Stage Throw!
It was a whole different kind of satisfaction!
Bai Mu smiled. "Because I'm right, I can stand tall with a clear conscience. Naturally, he couldn't argue with me!"
Xiao Wu said, "I have a question!"
Bai Mu asked, "What is it?"
Xiao Wu put her hands on her hips and asked, "Can't you be unreasonable and still act confident?"
"Huh?"
The moment those words came out, everyone turned to look at Xiao Wu in unison.
For a moment, they could not understand how her train of thought had taken such a bizarre turn.
"Well... Xiao Wu, how about we try to be at least a little reasonable..."
Tang San's mouth twitched. Having been Xiao Wu's brother for so many years, how could he not understand her personality?
Though that was what he said, as an old double-standard himself, he would absolutely support those close to him over reason.
"Of course you can!"
However, Bai Mu gently stroked Zygarde and gave a different answer. "Truth will always stand on the side of justice. As long as you have power, you can use your fists to break every rule, then decide what truth and justice are!"
Power, fists, rules!
Zhu Zhuqing's mind shook violently as she turned to look at the seemingly frivolous Bai Mu.
"Then do you have the power to face the fury of a level thirty-seven Soul Elder in the fourth trial later?"
The flames in Dai Mubai's eyes seemed ready to melt Bai Mu alive.
Bai Mu flashed a brilliant smile and nodded firmly. "I think I do."
"Good! I'll be watching!"
Dai Mubai clenched his fists and began explaining the four test stages to them.
Just as he finished explaining, they reached the line for the second trial.
At that moment, a soft, limp voice rang out—
"Sausages for sale, sausages for sale! Five copper coins each! Oscar-brand sausages, delicious and sweet, cheap and filling! Come take a look, don't miss out as you pass by—"
"They smell pretty good. Should we give them a try?"
"Let's try them, then!"
Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing, who had not eaten much for breakfast, were all tempted by the suggestion.
"Damn it! That guy is selling sausages again and ruining the academy's reputation!"
Dai Mubai cursed under his breath and advised them, "If you don't want to vomit, I'd suggest that you don't eat them."
"Why? Does he use inferior ingredients?"
Tang San and the others looked puzzled.
Dai Mubai said, "That's not it. Anyway, I don't recommend buying them!"
"That's good advice, but I never listen to advice!"
Bai Mu strode forward and asked, "You're Oscar?"
"Uh... that's me."
Oscar felt a little uneasy. For some reason, the other man's tone seemed off!
"So you're the legendary Little Food God? I've finally met you in person!"
"Good brother, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and let me taste your Big Sausage. I've wanted to try that mouthful of yours for a long time!"
Bai Mu directly tossed over a Silver Soul Coin and waved grandly. "Give me three of every kind of sausage. Keep the change!"
As the first Food Spirit in history to possess Innate Full Soul Power, and someone who would become the Food God in the original story...
He was simply far too curious about Oscar's Big Sausage!
As for psychological trauma, it was just a single line. What psychological trauma could there be?
He had thoroughly enjoyed eating raw skin in his previous life. Would a single line affect his appetite in this life?
Absolutely impossible!
"Alright! Brother, just wait a moment!"
For the first time, Oscar had met a major customer who understood him and even called him Little Food God. He was thrilled.
He immediately adjusted himself, determined to make the most perfect Big Sausages and Little Sausages for Bai Mu!
