Testing the Star Official with This? Hu Liena Gets a D- Rating and a Thirty-Thousand-Year Soul Bone Reward; It's the Grandmaster's Turn to Take the Challenge

Flender and Zhao Wuji both breathed a sigh of relief at the sight.

Thank goodness, their only remaining seedling was safe for now.

Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and the others bowed to the Silver-Haired Man on the arena.

They cried out respectfully in unison, "We pay our respects to Senior!"

This scene left the teachers and students of Shrek Academy—

and the Soul Masters who had rushed over, staring in shock, their jaws practically on the ground.

The exalted Titled Douluo were actually showing such respect to Senior.

Lin Feng glanced at them, nodded, and said nothing.

Then Yue Guan, Gui Mei, and the others deliberately walked over to Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong.

They said nothing, yet their presence alone put immense pressure on the two of them.

As everyone knew, Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang

had once been an elder of Spirit Hall, too.

But now, standing before real Spirit Hall elders, he didn't dare utter a peep.

Yu Xiaogang felt deeply aggrieved, but he didn't dare show his anger.

He could only force himself to stay calm and act as though he didn't care.

Liu Erlong beside him, however, didn't see things that way.

The moment she saw these Titled Douluo, Yue Guan and the others,

she instantly thought of that shameless woman from Spirit Hall.

She recalled the tender, loving scenes of Yu Xiaogang and that woman beneath the flowers and moonlight.

Her teeth clenched with fury, her fists balled tight.

A fierce glint flashed in her eyes. Mother Tyrannosaurus stopped pretending to be a proper lady.

She swung a punch into Yu Xiaogang's shoulder.

The next moment, poor Yu Xiaogang spat out a mouthful of blood.

He lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Dumbfounded, he looked at Liu Erlong, who stood with her arms crossed, glaring coldly at him.

Out of habit, he lowered his head, a little afraid.

He staggered to his feet, edged closer, and asked in a low voice:

"Er Long, what's wrong with you? Why did you suddenly get so angry?"

Liu Erlong glared at him and said coldly:

"The clothes you're wearing today are so ugly, they're ruining my mood!"

Yu Xiaogang's mouth twitched violently. He wanted to cry.

He opened his mouth, about to say something, but in the end could only swallow his words.

Otherwise, Mother Tyrannosaurus would beat him up again.

Seeing his good friend looking so miserable from a distance, Flender

could only cast him a sympathetic glance.

Over the years, he'd been most grateful that he and Liu Erlong had stayed good friends.

At least he didn't have to endure the kind of suffering Yu Xiaogang did.

As long as he could see Liu Erlong and know she was safe, that was enough.

A Mother Tyrannosaurus like her probably couldn't be truly tamed by any man.

On the arena, Hu Liena looked at the Silver-Haired Man before her.

She took a deep breath.

Then she took out the Lucky Golden Feather and said:

"Senior, I'd like to take the Star Official Challenge now!"

Lin Feng nodded, his smile turning a little warmer.

"Good," he said.

"Now pour your Soul Power into the Lucky Star Feather."

"I'll open the Star Official Challenge for you."

Hu Liena nodded firmly, a smile spreading across her little face.

She poured her Soul Power into the Lucky Golden Feather in her hand.

Suddenly, the feather shone with dazzling golden light.

It flew into the air, and the words "Attack" appeared above it.

The girl was instantly stunned.

It really was a case of getting exactly what she feared.

Attack was her weak point, yet she'd been unlucky enough to draw the "Attack" challenge.

Hu Liena gave the man before her a mournful look.

She'd stayed up late last night making all those pastries for nothing.

She'd eaten them all just now, and he still hadn't given her any special treatment.

Even a "Mental" challenge, like yesterday's, would have been fine.

The Saintess felt a little sad inside. She was emo.

The third update (3/4)

Chapter 22: Testing the Star Official with This? Hu Liena Gets a D- Rating and a Thirty-Thousand-Year Soul Bone Reward; It's the Grandmaster's Turn to Take the Challenge The people below the arena were all surprised to see Hu Liena draw the "Attack" challenge.

Three years ago, at the Continental Elite Spirit Master Tournament,

Hu Liena had displayed the formidable power of her Demon Fox Martial Soul.

Her peerless, wide-area charm and crowd-control abilities had dazzled the entire audience.

Everyone knew that Hu Liena, the Saintess of Spirit Hall,

was exceptionally talented and not to be underestimated.

She was one of the Golden Generation publicly announced by Spirit Hall.

Aside from her superb charm and control abilities,

she could also perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill with her elder brother, Xie Yue.

Its power was terrifying, and it was one of her signature abilities.

However, Hu Liena's charm-based Soul Skills

had a controlling effect and couldn't directly inflict damage.

And her Martial Soul Fusion Skill required her to join forces with her elder brother, Xie Yue.

That meant that her own attacks, on her own, were relatively weak.

Now that she'd drawn the "Attack" challenge,

she was terribly unlucky. Quite a few people were ready to watch her embarrass herself.

Liu Erlong gazed at the words "Attack" on the Lucky Star Feather

and sneered with amusement.

"Hu Liena, looks like you're just like your teacher.

"All those schemes to curry favor with men have failed.

"You actually drew the 'Attack' challenge.

"Seems Senior isn't giving you any special treatment at all.

"Your pastries went to waste. You might as well have fed them to a dog..."

She suddenly realized she'd said something she shouldn't have.

She quickly covered her mouth, just in time to meet Yue Guan's furious glare.

All she could do was cross her arms and look away.

Yu Xiaogang stood perfectly still.

Cold sweat trickled down his forehead. Thank goodness Mother Tyrannosaurus hadn't taken her anger out on him.

On the arena, Lin Feng looked at Hu Liena.

He said slowly:

"Hu Liena, you drew the 'Attack' challenge.

"Now unleash your strongest attack and strike the Star Feather."

Hu Liena was unwilling to accept it and asked cautiously:

"Senior, could I switch to another challenge?

"The 'Mental' challenge, like yesterday, would be fine.

"Attack... is my weak point.

"Please, Senior... won't you?"

The moment she finished speaking in that coaxing, almost flirtatious tone,

the corners of the thousands of people's mouths twitched.

This was a sacred Star Official Challenge, and she was treating it like child's play?

She actually wanted to switch challenges?

Why not just make yourself the Star Official?

And could she please just talk normally?

Why had she suddenly started putting on that cutesy voice?

"Shameless vixen!"

"Flirting with a man in broad daylight!"

"You're just like Bibi Dong, you little tramp!"

The more Liu Erlong thought about it, the angrier she got.

When she thought of Bibi Dong, she couldn't help punching Yu Xiaogang again.

Yu Xiaogang spat out another mouthful of blood.

His face pale, he looked pitifully at Liu Erlong.

Who would have thought Liu Erlong would put her hands on her hips and say coldly:

"Xiao Gang, I told you already, those clothes you're wearing today are too ugly. They're ruining my mood!

"Are you still not going to change? You're driving me crazy!"

Yu Xiaogang: ...

At that moment, a thousand wild horses galloped through his mind. He felt like crying.

But he could only endure it. After all these years, he'd more or less gotten used to it.
