Douluo Era.
The outskirts of the Star Dou Forest.
Tang Hao looked at the forest before him, his heart finally relaxing a little.
"We should be close enough now. Little girl, isn't the King of the Forest coming to pick you up? Why hasn't it appeared yet?"
Xiao Wu was listless; the influence of the Light Screen had hit her too hard.
Hearing Tang Hao's words, Xiao Wu could only sense her surroundings with a lack of strength. She murmured:
"The distance from the core of the Star Dou Forest to the outskirts is not short; it takes time..."
"I can feel Er Ming approaching."
"Wait a moment, I will summon it over!"
"Good!" Tang Hao nodded.
Only Tang San noticed Xiao Wu's mood and kept comforting her from the side:
"Xiao Wu, it's okay."
"Don't let this Light Screen affect you; everything it says is fake."
"Even if, even if you summoned the Titan Giant Ape like that in the future, I wouldn't blame you!"
"Xiao Wu!"
Tang San shouted anxiously, but the more Xiao Wu listened, the more miserable she felt.
Xiao Wu covered her face and said painfully:
"But it's right!"
"San, if I really cared about you, could I really have summoned Er Ming to take me away so easily in the future?"
"Could I not have considered your feelings at all?"
"This Light Screen isn't wrong at all; this is my problem!"
"Whether it's the revenge plan for my mother or my simple acquisition of a spirit ring, it's all a display of my stupidity!"
"San, I'm sorry, I..."
"I'm afraid I really will hurt you..."
"No, you won't!" Tang San retorted again: "Xiao Wu, even if you do hurt me, you are still my little sister!"
"Xiao Wu, with me here, no one can hurt you!!"
But at this moment, Xiao Wu had ultimately lost her fighting spirit.
No matter how much Tang San said, it was hard for her to recover.
Xiao Wu looked at the Light Screen with a bitter smile; who knew how many more stupid things she would do in the future?
Inside the Light Screen.
[That segment about obtaining a spirit ring is a milestone in the realm of the mentally deficient, so stupid it would make every spirit master on the continent laugh their teeth out.]
[The pile of trashy plot that follows is so rotten it shocks heaven and earth, so foul that even dung beetles would take a detour.]
[Xiao Wu playing the innocent little girl to play house with street thugs like Bu Le—I find it beneath me to even mention it.]
[The subsequent Continental Advanced Spirit Master Elite Tournament was a masterclass in stupidity, with intelligence levels bankrupt from start to finish, plummeting all the way to the bottom.]
[The first point of stupidity, which can be called the fighter jet of brain-dead decisions—which nerve in your head was misfiring that you decided to participate?]
[Did you sneak into the human world for a vacation? Or to walk the red carpet?]
[Weren't you shouting about blood debts for your mother? Weren't you supposed to be training to get stronger? Weren't you supposed to keep your tail tucked and act like a beast?]
[And yet, your god-tier self-preservation strategy was to stand under the spotlight, terrified that Bibi Dong's telescope wouldn't have high enough resolution?]
[Don't give me that nonsense about the Love-Sickness Broken-Heart Red acting as an amulet; that pathetic flower might cover up the stench of the beast on you.]
[But have you verified the effect of this thing yourself? Can it last three seconds or five? Does it cover an area the size of a palm? Can it withstand a single glance from a Title Douluo?]
[You don't know a damn thing, you haven't figured out a single detail, yet you dare to strut onto the stage—your audacity is ten thousand times larger than your brain capacity.]
[You clearly knew you hadn't fully matured, and once you stepped into Spirit Hall's territory, you'd be queuing up just to qualify as a spirit ring.]
[You clearly knew this choice was a sprint toward death, yet you insisted on flooring the gas pedal.]
[Did this do your teammates, or your precious Tang San, even half a cent's worth of good?]
[Once your identity was exposed, the entire academy would be implicated, and your good brother San would have to suffer the consequences along with you.]
[Only someone with brain matter as thin as water could pull off such a self-destructive, lose-lose maneuver.]
[If you had even a shred of a brain instead of a bag of tofu dregs in your skull, you wouldn't have rushed to deliver your head to Spirit Hall.]
[At this point, there are still apologists jumping out to say: Xiao Wu was just holding on for the sake of the team; she could have run away alone.]
"Bullshit! What, did this tournament come with a death warrant that made participation mandatory? Would you drop dead on the spot if you didn't join?"
"Couldn't she have just flipped the table and quit right there? Would she have been struck by lightning for withdrawing?"
"If you're stupid, just own up to it. Don't use the team as a fig leaf for your incompetence; the team isn't taking the fall for this."
"Furthermore, during the tournament, Tang San decided to absorb his fourth soul ring, daring to touch a ten-thousand-year Soul Beast right out of the gate."
"Relying on her background as a Soul Beast, Xiao Wu put on a show, scaring him by claiming that ten-thousand-year soul rings carry a soul shock that could turn a person into a vegetable."
"She even patted her chest and promised that if Tang San died, she wouldn't hesitate to follow him in death."
"Fine, fine, fine!"
"When your own mother died a miserable death, why didn't you follow her without a second thought?"
"Your mother is gone, and you don't make a peep; but the moment your man is gone, you're wailing and carrying on like the world is ending?"
"You really are a fine daughter raised by your mother. She raised you with blood and sweat, only to end up with the ultimate ingrate."
"When the mother dies, I talk a big game about revenge, but in reality, I run off to the human world to sightsee and flirt."
"But if the man dies, I must commit suicide to prove my loyalty, ensuring my 'Brother San' doesn't die in vain."
"They say a man forgets his mother once he takes a wife, but you haven't even married yet, and you've already tossed your own mother into the trash heap?"
"No, that's not right—you didn't just toss her away now; from start to finish, you never left a single shred of space for your mother in your heart!"
"Later, the tournament continued as usual, and they actually won, for heaven's sake."
"An accident happened, the Love-Sickness Broken-Heart Red fell off, her true colors were stripped bare, and her identity was completely exposed."
"If Tang Hao hadn't descended from the sky at the perfect moment, you would have long since become a vengeful ghost on one of Bibi Dong's soul rings."
"So, just how many times has this girl's head been slammed in a door? If her luck had been even a fraction worse, nine lives wouldn't have been enough to cover her death-seeking antics."
"Afterward, Tang Hao hauled Tang San and Xiao Wu away to escape, and Xiao Wu rolled back to the Star Dou Forest to hide."
"A few years later, after finishing his cultivation, Tang San went to find her, and as luck would have it, he ran right into the Spirit Hall's main force on their way to capture her."
"Setting aside how Tang San was acting like an idiot, let's talk about the peerless genius that is Xiao Wu."
"I've pondered it for eight lifetimes and still can't figure it out—you stupid girl, you clearly knew the hounds of Spirit Hall were blocking your doorstep, yet you actually jumped out on your own?"
"That's right, she actively revealed herself, charging out to face them head-on."
"Good grief, was your brain slammed in an elevator door and then kicked by a donkey for good measure?"
"Knowing full well they were there to capture you, you still bolted out there like you'd been injected with adrenaline?"
