Does liking someone require a reason?

As Jiang Zhu was treating Xiao Wu.

Han Xing, on his end, also began reviewing the system's messages.

This appearance had directly caused his popularity to surge.

Especially the emergence of four ten-thousand-year Soul Rings, which had brought him a large amount of popularity.

Han Xing's popularity had now reached over ninety thousand, just a little more and he would break through one hundred thousand points to receive a new popularity gift pack.

"Perhaps it needs some time to ferment," Han Xing thought silently.

The Douluo Continent world and the audience's world did not have a strict time flow ratio.

Perhaps several years passed in the Douluo Continent, while only a few days passed for the audience.

Or it was possible that a year or half a year passed for the audience, while only a few days passed in the Douluo Continent.

And it was impossible for every single audience member to be watching the anime the moment new plot points aired.

"I wonder what my current proportion in [Douluo Continent] is."

"Will there be a dedicated plot arc for me later on?" Han Xing pondered silently.

Just as he was lost in thought, Jiang Zhu also finished treating Xiao Wu.

"Although the injuries have healed, she still needs to rest for a while before she wakes up,"

Jiang Zhu said to Flander.

"Mm, thank you for your trouble," Flander nodded.

"Xiao San, take Xiao Wu back to rest."

Seeing Xiao Wu recover, Tang San had also returned to his usual demeanor.

After bidding farewell to everyone, he took Xiao Wu and left.

"Damn, bro, you're amazing," Ma Hongjun immediately became excited upon seeing Tang San's back completely disappear.

He slowly walked to Han Xing's side and nudged him with his arm.

"Can you teach me how you did it?"

"Do what? Using your martial soul?" Han Xing looked at Ma Hongjun in confusion, not quite understanding his train of thought.

"Of course, how did you manage to have your own fan club?" Ma Hongjun said as a matter of course.

"If I could have this many female fans, I'd be laughing in my sleep."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhu and the others glanced at Ma Hongjun with disgust.

"Fatty!" Dai Mubai, feeling embarrassed, couldn't help but step forward and grab Ma Hongjun.

"Wrong, wrong, Boss Dai, I was wrong," Ma Hongjun quickly begged for mercy.

"If you want to have your own fans, I have nothing to teach you," Han Xing waved his hand at this point.

"After all, Jiang Zhu and the others formed their fan club spontaneously."

Han Xing looked at Jiang Zhu and Huang Lili, "Rather than asking me, you'd be better off asking Jiang Zhu and Huang Lili."

Seeing Han Xing's gaze turn towards them, Jiang Zhu and Huang Lili immediately became excited.

"Does liking A Xing require any reason?" Huang Lili asked as a matter of course.

"I like him, so I became A Xing's fan. After discovering that A Xing had quite a few fans, we formed a fan club."

"Me too," Jiang Zhu nodded, her face flushed.

"After I discovered people like Lili who liked A Xing like I did, I thought of the idea to form a fan club to help A Xing."

"But unfortunately, so far, we haven't been able to help A Xing much."

"Uh..." Oscar looked at Jiang Zhu and the others speechlessly, confused.

"No, don't you need a reason to like someone?"

"Do you?" Huang Lili retorted.

Oscar: "Don't you?"

"Do you?"

The two questioned each other for a moment until Ma Hongjun broke the stalemate again.

"You've misunderstood. Xiao Ao means that you definitely didn't start liking Han Xing the moment you saw him, right?"

"There must be some characteristics about him that attract you. Can you tell us?"

"So that we can also learn... Han Xing's excellent qualities?"

[Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter, Oscar and Ma Hongjun, these two guys, they've thrown all shame away just to find girlfriends.]

[Saying things like learning excellent qualities, can't it just be simple handsomeness and strength?]

[I can only say, for fans who are so fanatical that they actively form fan clubs for their idols, never try to understand their thought process.]

"Actually, I fell for A Xing because of his strength," Jiang Zhu said shyly.

"His powerful strength gives me a full sense of security, perfectly matching my ideal partner criteria."

"It was only later, as I paid more attention, that I realized it might not be limited to just his powerful strength."

"Senior Jiang Zhu!" Huang Lili's eyes widened.

Just as everyone thought she was about to scold Jiang Zhu for liking Han Xing for such a reason.

They heard Huang Lili say something that shocked them: "You actually took the opportunity to confess to A Xing!"

"No way, I have to confess too," Huang Lili said urgently.

"I fell for A Xing the very first time I saw him fighting someone else in the arena."

"But just like Senior Jiang Zhu, as I paid more attention later, I found myself liking A Xing more and more."

Ma Hongjun and Oscar exchanged glances: "..."

"Actually, this is normal. Senior Jiang Zhu, as a support-type soul master, it's inevitable to like a powerful and handsome peer of the opposite sex," Ning Rongrong said. "After all, support-type soul masters themselves have no combat power."

"Therefore, the first criterion for choosing a partner for support-type soul masters is strength, followed by appearance."

"Han Xing's strength naturally meets all of Senior Jiang Zhu's requirements, so it's inevitable that she'd be attracted."

Hearing this, Jiang Zhu nodded in agreement.

"Junior, are you also a support-type soul master? You understand our thoughts so well."

Jiang Zhu came back to her senses and looked at Ning Rongrong curiously.

"Yes," Ning Rongrong nodded.

"Then, Junior, would you like to join our Solitary Crimson Sun Fan Club?" Huang Lili invited.

"Don't let his usual cold demeanor fool you, A Xing is actually a very gentle person."

"The reason he fought with that girl named Xiao Wu just now was actually because Xiao Wu wanted to make a move on us."

Ning Rongrong was a little taken aback.

"Xiao Wu wanted to make a move on you?"

That's not right, in her memory, Xiao Wu wasn't like that.

Oh, no, that's not right either.

Actually, if she thought about it carefully, Xiao Wu's personality was indeed fiery, and she was particularly prone to causing trouble.

She had directly provoked Dai Mubai as soon as she arrived at Shrek Academy, and had taught Ma Hongjun a lesson without understanding the situation.

However, within the Shrek Seven Devils, the core of the team had always been Tang San.

And the relationship between Tang San and Xiao Wu was completely that of a loving brother and sister.

Everyone turned a blind eye to Xiao Wu's behavior out of respect for Tang San.

Even after getting used to it, they didn't think there was anything wrong with Xiao Wu's actions.

If it were someone they had just met, Xiao Wu could indeed be quite annoying at times.

She was always prone to making a fuss, was boisterous, and loved to fight.
