"Xu Sanshi!"
A furious shout suddenly came from outside the Soul Fighting Zone.
Just from the voice, it was obvious it was that girl Tang Ya.
As for why Tang Ya had come looking for Xu Sanshi?
Nonsense. In the entire academy, who else besides Xu Sanshi could make Jiang Nannan cry, even drive her into depression?
Besides, most people generally wouldn't have the guts to bully Jiang Nannan.
From the small supermarket where Jiang Nannan worked part-time, Tang Ya learned the whole story.
Because Xu Sanshi had deliberately made things difficult for her, Jiang Nannan not only lost the part-time job she had finally managed to find, she even had to pay a sum in medical expenses because she had injured someone.
As everyone knew, if you wanted to attract a girl's attention, you either relied on outstanding looks and talent, or you deliberately targeted that girl.
Clearly, Xu Sanshi belonged to the latter category.
In truth, with Xu Sanshi's status, he could have relied entirely on his sect's support to obtain Jiang Nannan, but he had always believed he could do it through his own ability.
And so, under his relentless pestering, Jiang Nannan only grew more and more disgusted with him.
It had practically reached the point where she would take a detour the moment she saw him.
Jiang Nannan: If I can't afford to provoke him, can't I at least hide from him?
"Oh, come on, Tang Ya, what are you doing?"
Seeing Beibei shielding Tang Ya behind him, Xu Sanshi could only force a smile. Even with Tang Ya pointing at his nose and scolding him, he didn't dare show the slightest hint of anger.
One could only say he truly lived up to being turtle-like. He really could endure it, huh.
"What did I do? I should be asking what you did to Nannan! She's already in that state, and you still bullied her. Xu Sanshi, are you even human?"
Tang Ya, who didn't know how to curse or swear at people, could only raise her voice to express the fury in her chest.
"What happens between Nannan and me isn't something you, Tang Ya, get to interfere in."
Toward Tang Ya, Xu Sanshi was only being briefly polite, and that was mainly out of consideration for Beibei.
If Beibei weren't here, Tang Ya would be nothing but a singer.
The sect master of a fallen sect—did she really think she was someone important?
"Nannan is my best friend. If you bully her, that's the same as bullying me."
If you chose to reason with a woman, you had already lost from the start—not to mention Xu Sanshi was the one in the wrong to begin with.
And so, this young sect master of the Mysterious Underworld Sect could only spread both hands and say, "Then tell me, how do you want to settle this?"
"How about this? You and Beibei have a match. If you win, we'll pretend this never happened. If you lose, just take out ten or eight Mysterious Water Pills as compensation."
Although he and Beibei were both prodigies of the outer courtyard, Xu Sanshi was a defense-type soul master, while Beibei was an assault-type soul master.
If the two of them sparred, Xu Sanshi would basically be a spinning top for Beibei to whip around.
Xu Sanshi: Sigh~ Looks like I can't avoid a brutal beating.
"Tang Ya, do you think Mysterious Water Pills are cabbages? Ten or eight? I can take out three at most."
"Three works too."
Meanwhile, inside the girls' dormitory for the senior students, Jiang Nannan also sat up from her bed and came to the window.
At the same time, she picked up the "milk tea" Tang Ya had just brought her.
"When girls are in a bad mood, they should eat something sweet."
"Drinks should count too, right?"
Jiang Nannan remembered the first time she had been in a bad mood. Tang Ya had comforted her like this back then, and had even brought her half a small cake.
If one asked why there had only been half?
Because the little cake had looked too delicious, and Tang Ya hadn't been able to resist eating half of it on the way there.
Tang Ya: Am I really that greedy! (Beibei was the first to agree.)
"Chilled Sweet Milk?"
The moment the Raw Coconut Latte entered her mouth, there was a delicate texture, a sweet flavor, and on top of that, an icy-cool temperature.
"It's really good. When Xiaoya comes back, I'll ask her where she bought it."
Whether coffee truly had a healing effect, or whether it was because she had already cried earlier, Jiang Nannan, leaning by the window, revealed a faint smile.
If the other outer courtyard disciples saw this scene, they would probably all show shocked expressions.
Wasn't the outer courtyard's aloof campus belle an ice block? Since when had she learned to smile?
"Luckin Coffee?"
Only after drinking all the liquid in the cup did Jiang Nannan notice the blue moose logo and the name printed on it.
"But why were there so many ice cubes in this coffee? Did the owner grow up eating ice?"
Looking at the cup stuffed full of ice, Jiang Nannan could not help frowning.
"But the owner was really nice. I bought a coffee, and he even gave me a free ice cup."
Jiang Nannan did not waste the remaining ice cubes either. She ran outside and got some hot water.
Logically speaking, when water over ninety degrees came into contact with ice cubes, it should have melted them directly.
But the ice cubes in the Luckin Coffee cup showed no signs of softening whatsoever in the face of the hot water. Instead, they remained as firm as ever.
"The quality of these ice cubes really is pretty good."
For a moment, Jiang Nannan did not even know how to roast it.
Elsewhere, after finishing physical training class, Wang Dong returned to the classroom. Looking at the ice cubes in the Luckin Coffee cup on her desk, which showed absolutely no signs of melting, she also fell silent.
Wang Dong: Were these really still ice cubes?
Inside the Soul Fighting Zone, the match had also been decided.
With both of them at the same soul-power rank, Xu Sanshi, a defense-type soul master, had almost no ability to fight back against Beibei, who was an assault-type soul master.
That said, Xu Sanshi's mouth was still as stubborn as ever.
Even after taking out three Mysterious Water Pills, he still had to run his mouth a little: If your girlfriend hadn't been right there, Beibei, and I hadn't wanted to save you some face, I definitely would've beaten you until you called me daddy.
Tang Ya took the Mysterious Water Pills from Beibei. Whether for Beibei or for Tang Ya herself, these Mysterious Water Pills basically had no effect anymore.
The same was true for Jiang Nannan.
Still, Tang Ya decided to hand these three Mysterious Water Pills over to Jiang Nannan. After all, Jiang Nannan had just paid someone a sum of medical expenses, so she definitely was not flush with money, not to mention she also had a sick mother at home who needed medicine.
Although the Mysterious Water Pill was only one of the more basic pills of the Mysterious Underworld Sect, selling one for a few thousand Gold Soul Coins was still fairly easy.
As for Xiao Yuhao's Mysterious Water Pill?
No problem. The next time Xu Sanshi jumped out again, they could just have Beibei beat him up again.
Tang Ya: Oh my, tell me, who exactly came up with Xu Sanshi? Beat him up once, and he spits out a few Mysterious Water Pills.
In fact, given the cooperative relationship between Shrek Academy and the Mysterious Underworld Sect, the academy also provided pill resources such as Mysterious Water Pills.
But as the saying went, exchanging contribution points or Gold Soul Coins for them was nowhere near as fast as just robbing them directly.
A business with no capital was the most satisfying kind.
