Ma Xiaotao After finishing his words, the originally noisy tavern suddenly seemed to have pressed the pause button.
The excitement and enthusiasm for eating melon spread wildly on the second floor of the tavern, and heads one after another poked their heads out from each booth, and then looked in the direction of the two of them.
Especially after seeing the amazing combination of Qiangu Yunche and Ma Xiaotao, the fire in everyone's eyes became even more intense.
It almost burned through the roof of the tavern.
Qiangu Yunche twitched the corner of his mouth, glanced at the people eating melons, and whispered:
"Sister, would you like to see where we are now? It's easy for others to misunderstand you if you say such things."
Ma Xiaotao was startled when she heard this. After she came to her senses, she belatedly looked around. The onlookers were even more amazed when they saw her face clearly, especially the two young men closest to Ma Xiaotao who looked like pig brothers.
As if he was aware of the ambiguity of what he just said, Ma Xiaotao's face, which was already lightly flushed, turned even redder in an instant, and even her earlobes were dyed pink, making her look delicate and charming.
But she can't cure Qiangu Yunche, can't she also cure these ordinary people who have nothing to do with Soul Power?
"What are you looking at? If you look at me again, I will dig out your eyeballs and drink them!"
A sharp shout spread out with Ma Xiaotao's extremely burning fire attribute Soul Power. In an instant, all those watching the melon-eating looked horrified, and then they slipped back to their booths or private rooms in dejection.
After solving the trouble outside, Ma Xiaotao sat down depressed again, then took Qiangu Yunche's wine barrel and filled it up for himself again, then drank it all.
The clear colored wine slid down her smooth chin, and then slid into a bottomless white ravine.
This scene is undoubtedly quite tempting, especially since Ma Xiaotao has impeccable looks and figure, and these are the only two points about her that cannot be attacked or denied.
"Qiangu Yunche, you know, if it weren't for you, I would still be choosing Shrek Seven Monsters as the captain, the most dazzling genius of the Shrek Academy, the future Sea God Pavilion Elder and even the master of the pavilion.
But just because of you, overnight I went from being the number one person in Inner Court that everyone was optimistic about in the future to a loser who couldn't even make it into the top three.
Even compared to them, I don't even have a clear way forward, all I have is Evil Fire's troubles and the humiliation that could turn into Evil Soul Master at any time."
Ma Xiaotao raised his head, his pale pink eyes flashing with stubbornness, grievance, hesitation and an emotion similar to resentment.
The things Qiangu Yunche gave to the three girls Han Ruoruo are too valuable. Whether it is Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring Soul Bone or the treasures of heaven and earth that are enough to help Soul Master transform into Ultimate Attribute, they are not what Shrek Academy can give to Ma Xiaotao now...
Therefore, overnight, most of the honors and attention that had been piled on her disappeared. Even though she was still dazzling and still a rare talent that Shrek could only see in a thousand years, she was not the only one after all.
This is definitely a blow to Ma Xiaotao, who is naturally proud and refuses to submit to others.
Therefore, she practiced more focused and harder than before. When the competition opened, she was already the seventh-ring Battle Soul Saint. It can be said that she was the only participant in this competition who became Soul Saint before the age of twenty.
But so what?
Her Phoenix Flame is still the impure Evil Fire, and even the Evil Fire that was suppressed by Myriad Tide Heavenly Thunder in her body is showing signs of being broken because she broke through the Soul Saint Martial Soul bloodline and revived it again.
Once Evil Fire regains consciousness, it will be a dream for her to imagine practicing and fighting as freely as she does now.
But for Ma Xiaotao, training and fighting are an indispensable part of her life, and they are instincts engraved in her blood.
And once Evil Fire breaks the seal, the only thing she can do is to endure the suffering silently, wasting her golden training time, and watching her companions or rivals catch up or even surpass her in their cultivation level. This is no less than Ling Chi for Ma Xiaotao.
Qiangu Yunche quietly stared at Ma Xiaotao's eyes, and he read many emotions from them, but there was no hatred in these emotions.
After sighing, Qiangu Yunche said softly:
"Ma Xiaotao, you have to be clear about one thing. No one in this world, including me, Dean Yan, and sister Luochen, has denied your past efforts and perseverance, let alone your talent and potential.
Even without me, you could endure the extreme pain and interference caused by Evil Fire while cultivating to a state one step away from Soul Saint before the age of twenty. This is a feat. If I didn't have some unique opportunities and was just a native Star Luo Empire person, I would never be able to reach your level.
What we complain about more is your character and actions. For example, you knew before that Evil Fire would lose control and you would be indistinguishable between friend and foe and even hurt innocent people, but you still gambled on luck to practice. This is not only a sign of your irresponsibility for yourself, but also your neglect and harm to the safety of others."
Qiangu Yunche personally poured a glass of fruit wine for Ma Xiaotao, poured another glass for himself, and then lightly touched Ma Xiaotao's glass.
"Drink. I'll drink with you. You can drink as much as you like. After all, I don't want more Evil Phoenix Evil Soul Master to appear on the continent in the future. It will be a disaster for the entire continent."
Ma Xiaotao looked at his reflection in the glass of wine in silence, and then drank it down in one gulp, showing his heroic attitude.
"No matter what, let me drink enough first, and leave everything that worries me aside."
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked at Qiangu Yunche, her eyes burning as she said:
"If you drink with me, I may not be able to defeat you on the battlefield, but I will definitely outgrow you in the drinking hall.
Remember, you are not allowed to use Soul Power to relieve hangover, anyone who uses it is a pig."
Qiangu Yunche glanced at the sky, then chuckled:
"Come on, I'll satisfy you. I hope you'll be more open-minded after this drink."
Ma Xiaotao no longer paid attention to Qiangu Yunche, but filled up the wine glass on his own, and then handed it to Qiangu Yunche.
The neon lights are bright, and the night reflects Star Luo City's lavish prosperity. The high-lit lights illuminate the dark corners, and also reflect the alternating light and dark in front of Ma Xiaotao. Everything is distorted and deformed like a fantasy.
"Drink... I can keep drinking... Qiangu...Yun Che, let's keep drinking."
Ma Xiaotao made intermittent murmuring sounds one after another, and at the same time kept burping.
Carrying Ma Xiaotao, who was already drunk and unconscious, Qiangu Yunche pressed the button for the top floor of Star Luo Grand Hotel's elevator with no expression on his face.
Most of his clothes and the fiery red dress of Ma Xiaotao were soaked with wine. At this time, the two were tightly attached to each other, and both sides could clearly feel the other's body temperature.
"Drink! You... coward... coward, are you afraid of my extraordinary drinking capacity? Hehe... hehe, let me just say that I am Inner Court... the first... the one who can drink."
Ma Xiaotao tried his best to straighten his body, then turned his head and smiled at Qiangu Yunche, while spitting out another mouthful of wine.
"Pa--"
Seeing this scene, Qiangu Yunche twitched the corner of his mouth again, and then directly slapped Ma Xiaotao's buttocks.
"Ugh... why did you hit me... I want to tell the teacher... you not only bullied me, but also took advantage of me..."
Looking at Ma Xiaotao with a grievance and broken look on his face, Qiangu Yunche felt really helpless this time.
"Ma Xiaotao, if I drink with you from now on, I will be like a dog. Who is a good person who can drink like this from three barrels of fruit wine?"
