My name is Chu Qingtian, nineteen years old, with the Electric Mad Leopard martial soul, nicknamed the Electric Mad Demon Leopard, a level 57 agility-attack system battle soul king.
The person I like is Wu Ming, known as the Golden Crow Saintess, and I like to pretend that I dislike her in front of others.
I am very lucky; among this generation of the Shrek Seven Devils, I am the only male student.
Because of this, my status among the male students in the inner courtyard is quite high, and they always treat me as a messenger to the goddesses.
So far, I am the only one who can truly feel Wu Ming's charm; perhaps this is what a mutual, two-way love feels like.
The way she beats me, scolds me, and gets angry at me is truly adorable.
For this Tiandou Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, I must perform well and capture the heart of the goddess Wu Ming.
Wait, who is that brat chatting and laughing with Wu Ming up ahead?!
Chu Qingtian followed behind the two, pretending to be heading in the same direction, his ears pricked up.
"Hee hee hee... Little Brother Yuheng, where did you learn those sweet nothings? They're so cheesy..." Wu Ming was dressed in her Shrek inner courtyard uniform, paired with a pair of black silk stockings, giving her a unique charm.
The only one who could be chatting so happily with the Shrek Golden Crow Saintess was naturally Xue Yuheng; I wonder what trick he used to shake off Xiao Xiao today.
"Senior Sister, I will consider the things you mentioned." Xue Yuheng stopped in his tracks and said earnestly.
Wu Ming's face flushed red. She had only made a suggestion, and she hadn't expected Xue Yuheng to take it so seriously and meet her alone. She said shyly:
"Actually... if it's too much trouble, then never mind."
"Nothing regarding you is ever a trouble to me, Senior Sister.
By the way, there is the Shrek round-robin tournament this afternoon, right?
I will be in the audience cheering for you." Xue Yuheng smiled. In order not to disturb Wu Ming's state of mind, he said a simple goodbye and left.
In reality, Xiao Xiao was calling Xue Yuheng on his communication soul device, and if he didn't leave, his cover would be blown.
Wu Ming stared blankly at Xue Yuheng's departing back, and not knowing what she was thinking, she suddenly smiled.
As luck would have it, Chu Qingtian appeared in Wu Ming's line of sight at that exact moment.
The two locked eyes.
Chu Qingtian's expression was cold as he said flatly: "As the vice-captain of Shrek, this is the hotel lobby, a public place. Try to maintain some image, will you?"
"Get lost, you idiot. Who asked for your opinion, dead-fish face?" Wu Ming rolled her eyes at Chu Qingtian and walked away in a huff.
Watching Wu Ming leave, Chu Qingtian's heart was filled with the taste of happiness.
She smiled at me... The rejection of my confession last time was just a test for me, right?
Wu Ming, you really do like me after all.
"Little Xue, you went to the bathroom for that long?" Xiao Xiao had swept through all the delicacies at the restaurant across from the hotel and was chatting happily with Ning Tian.
As for Wu Feng, she now feared Xue Yuheng like a snake or scorpion; if he was part of the plans, Wu Feng would definitely not show up.
"My stomach was upset... Ahem, two beauties, let's go, on to the next activity..." Xue Yuheng skipped over the topic, trying to muddle through.
Xiao Xiao looked at Little Xue suspiciously, then took Ning Tian's hand and smiled sweetly: "Let's go! In order to tour all of Tiandou City in three days, Little Xue and I made a lot of plans last night... Like this viral shop, and the next activity...
Ning Tian, take a guess, what is it?"
Ning Tian gave her face and shook her head. She was much more familiar with Tiandou City than Xue Yuheng and Xiao Xiao, so she chimed in:
"What is it?"
Xiao Xiao made a funny face, "A haunted house adventure!"
Ning Tian: "..."
Are you telling me this little girl is the humanoid soul beast who underwent a lightning tribulation a week ago?
How old is she, and she's still playing in haunted houses.
Well, she's not older than me.
The haunted house in Tiandou City is very famous on the continent.
Because it truly uses ghosts to scare people.
Poor captured evil soul masters, poor departed souls, those wicked capitalists.
Two o'clock in the afternoon, the third activity of the day: watching the Shrek match.
The three of them had seats in the front row.
Shrek Academy, the continent's recognized number one soul master academy, founded during the era of Wuhun Hall ten thousand years ago, possessed a profound heritage.
The most famous, undoubtedly, are the Shrek Seven Devils; under this legendary title, seven gods were once born.
The title of Shrek Seven Devils has been awarded every five years since they first participated in the Continental Soul Master Tournament, and very few students can make such outstanding contributions to earn the lifetime title.
And the strength of this generation of Shrek Seven Devils is also extremely formidable.
Xue Yuheng had learned of their strength from the classic "reciting the menu" segment, and bringing Xiao Xiao and Ning Tian to watch the match wasn't just to boost his favorability with Wu Ming.
"Shrek Academy, Baise, level 56 control-system battle soul king."
"Shrek Academy, Mu Yue, level 57 Power Attack System Battle Soul King."
On the stage, Shrek Academy and their old rivals, Star Luo Royal Soul Master Academy, were engaged in a two-two-three format match.
Xue Yuheng was quite interested in the martial souls of these two female students from Shrek; the martial soul of Baise was Weak Water, while Mu Yue's was Refined Gold.
The martial soul promotion paths provided by the Wordless Heavenly Book all pointed toward mastering ultimate attributes.
Mastering an ultimate attribute and merely possessing one were different; the former was a form of authority held by demigod-level martial souls and above, focusing more on the laws of the world.
As for the latter, Soul Masters with ultimate attributes possessed the power of a single element, but between levels 30 and 70, their cultivation speed would often slow down due to the nature of that attribute. The former, however, had no such concerns.
After another fierce and exhilarating match, Zhang Lexuan served as the trump card, ending Star Luo's winning streak and leading Shrek to qualify for the round-robin tournament with the top group score.
After the match, Xue Yuheng had Xiao Xiao take Ning Tian to a movie, while he set off for the Shrek hotel, where he met Wu Ming, who had just finished showering.
Xiao Xiao knew that as a crown prince, Xue Yuheng carried a heavy burden. As a consort of Prince Gan, it wasn't her place to say much about him recruiting talented young girls.
Xiao Xiao repeatedly warned Xue Yuheng that if he came back smelling of other women...
Xiao Xiao bared her little fangs.
"Yuheng, um... my room might be a bit messy, don't mind it."
Wu Ming led Xue Yuheng into her double suite. From the bathroom at the end of the hallway, the sound of someone showering could still be heard.
The room was not messy at all; instead, it carried the faint, sweet scent of a young girl.
Xue Yuheng analyzed it and realized it was the smell of Wu Ming's shampoo.
"Xiao Ming, why didn't the shampoo... ah!"
The beautiful figure walking out of the bathroom hurriedly rushed back in, slammed the door shut, and shouted, "Why is there a little boy here!?"
Wu Ming took a new bottle of shampoo out of her storage ring, her expression strange. "Little Yuheng, what did you see?"
Xue Yuheng said awkwardly, "That was Senior Sister Baise, right? I didn't see anything."
He really only saw white; he didn't see anything else.
"White, was it?"
"White..." Oh no.
Baise had appeared beside Xue Yuheng, already fully dressed, before he even noticed. Her exquisite face caused Xue Yuheng to let the truth slip out in a daze.
"White your head! You little pervert! Don't you run, stand right there!"
Wu Ming tried to mediate between the two, but Baise was an innocent young woman with conservative values, and she was truly furious this time.
"Stop! You little pervert, is this Ultimate Ice?!" Baise stood in the center of the ice-sealed living room, looking at him in disbelief.
Her Weak Water martial soul was Limit Water, just one step away from Ultimate Water.
For Xue Yuheng's ice-attribute soul power to exert such immense suppression on her martial soul, it could only be Ultimate Ice.
"Douling Empire, Xue Yuheng, greetings to Senior Sister Baise. This is a gift for you, a token of my apology." Xue Yuheng handed over a Xuanming God Crystal and said gently.
He had obtained quite a few water-attribute treasures from the Xuanming Sect, so he was essentially offering flowers belonging to another to show his respect.
"Is this the Xuanming God Crystal, a specialty of the Xuanming Sect? A piece like this is worth as much as a secret technique soul bone," Baise reminded him.
"As long as Senior Sister is willing to forgive me, a single Xuanming God Crystal is nothing." Xue Yuheng gritted his teeth, pretending to hesitate and acting bashful.
Since he had already seen her, and he couldn't kill Xue Yuheng in front of Wu Ming, getting a water-attribute treasure seemed like a decent outcome.
Money makes the world go round, and it can even make beauties bow.
With the misunderstanding cleared up, the three of them had a brief conversation.
Baise was even more shocked: "What? Xiao Ming, have you two lost your minds?
You want to help the five of us evolve our martial souls?!"
