Cui Yajie Humbly Clings to Jiang Ziming's Leg

Jiang Ziming crouched slightly, pinched the carrot between his fingers, and stroked the pale girl's cheek as he said softly,

"Come on, eat this."

Cui Yajie froze for a moment.

Isn't this the support-type soul skill Jiang Ziming used to buff his teammates earlier?

No, if he wants me to eat it, it definitely can't be anything good!

Cui Yajie immediately wanted to refuse.

However, Jiang Ziming firmly pinched her cheek, making even her moist pink lips pout slightly.

"You won't surrender, and you won't behave. I'll have to teach you a proper lesson with my sword."

Jiang Ziming spoke gently, as though coaxing an unruly kitten.

Feeling the Xuanyuan Sword in his hand radiating ancient sword aura, Cui Yajie could not help but shudder again.

Fine, I'll eat it. It's only a match. Even if there's something wrong with that carrot, it can't possibly poison me to death, can it?

Cui Yajie knelt on the ground, her pretty face flushed crimson. Several round toes wrapped in white stockings curled involuntarily from humiliation and anger.

She gently opened her pink lips and obediently accepted the boy's "feeding," swallowing the Delicious Carrot.

The carrot melted the instant it entered her mouth.

A fragrant, sweet flavor spread across her tongue.

Cui Yajie's eyes flew wide open. Even the tail hanging limply behind her suddenly sprang back to life, wagging fiercely several times!

What kind of carrot is this...

Why... is it so delicious?

It's so delicious I'm going to die...

Cui Yajie's eyes gradually lost their clarity, the whites faintly showing.

Yet her fox tail wagged even harder, while her two long legs clad in white stockings twisted lightly against the ground several times.

In the end, Cui Yajie actually knelt there with her tail wagging and her body bent forward, gently pressing her cheek against the boy's pant leg and rubbing it softly like an obedient pet cat.

He had not expected the Delicious Carrot to be this effective.

Jiang Ziming hummed in satisfaction and casually stroked the girl's soft pink hair as if petting a cat.

The spectator stands fell utterly silent.

Then they erupted.

"Wait... what did I just see? Why is Cui Yajie kneeling on the ground and rubbing against his pant leg?!"

"Weren't they fighting just now? How did this turn into an animal-taming act while they were fighting?"

"What exactly was that carrot? She turned into a kitten right after eating it?"

"I'm fucking dumbfounded... This is the finals of Shrek's freshman assessment? Isn't this a circus?"

"Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu are still fighting over there. I wonder what expressions they'll have when they turn around and find their teammate has already defected..."

"This Jiang Ziming is seriously ridiculous. A fight is a fight—how did he manage to steal someone else's girl in the middle of it?"

"If I were Cui Yajie, I'd probably find a crack in the ground to crawl into after the match... Kneeling in front of the entire school and rubbing against someone's pant leg..."

"That's so embarrassing, really too embarrassing... but why am I a little jealous?"

"What are you jealous of? You want to go rub against him too?"

On the other side of the arena, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu were locked in fierce combat with Wang Donger and Xiao Xiao.

Dai Huabin repeatedly unleashed White Tiger Fierce Light Waves, forcing Wang Donger back again and again. Yet empowered by the Excitement Carrot, Wang Donger's Radiant Goddess Butterfly still stubbornly withstood his assaults.

Zhu Lu's Netherworld Spirit Cat movement technique was bizarre, and she nearly caught Xiao Xiao's openings several times. However, Xiao Xiao's Three Lives Soul-Calming Cauldron maintained an airtight defense, leaving her no way to strike.

As he fought, Dai Huabin could not help glancing back.

Then he saw a sight he would never forget for the rest of his life.

Cui Yajie was kneeling before Jiang Ziming, wagging her tail and rubbing her cheek against his pant leg.

"Cui Yajie! What are you doing?!"

Dai Huabin roared.

Yet Cui Yajie did not respond at all. Immersed in the ultimate pleasure brought by that carrot, her consciousness had long since drifted into the clouds.

Dai Huabin was so furious he nearly spat out blood.

Didn't you say you'd hold Jiang Ziming back?

What happened to the plan?

How the fuck did you just defect?!

Because Cui Yajie's behavior was simply too outrageous, a massive wave of emotion-point notifications appeared before Jiang Ziming.

[Ding!]

[The spectators' worldviews have shattered in shock at Cui Yajie kneeling and rubbing against his pant leg—Emotion Points +99!]

[Several upperclassmen are jealous that a beautiful girl can rub against you like that—Emotion Points +99!]

[Several girls blush as they watch Cui Yajie's obedient appearance and mutter that they also want to rub against your pant leg—Emotion Points +99!]

[The homeroom teacher of Freshman Class Two's vision goes dark. He grips the railing and gasps heavily, feeling like he has been set up—Emotion Points +99!]

[Dai Huabin sees his teammate defect and is so furious he nearly spits out blood—Emotion Points +99!]

[Wang Donger stomps her foot in annoyance, thinking that Jiang Ziming is taking advantage of another girl again—Emotion Points +99!]

[Xiao Xiao blushes, thinking that Cui Yajie is a little pitiful, but also a little enviable—Emotion Points +99!]

Jiang Ziming gave Cui Yajie, who was lying on the ground with her eyes rolled back, a satisfied glance and released his hand.

Perhaps because too much soul power had been poured into her, Cui Yajie finally could not hold on any longer.

Her eyes rolled back, and she collapsed completely onto the ground.

Her two fleshy legs wrapped in white stockings hung limply.

Her fluffy fox tail drooped listlessly against the floor.

She looked like a kitten that had been petted until it went limp.

The referee leaped onto the stage, scooped her up, and quickly carried her out of the arena.

Jiang Ziming lazily stretched before shifting his gaze toward the other two confrontations nearby.

Wang Donger versus Dai Huabin, and Xiao Xiao versus Zhu Lu.

Clearly, although Wang Donger and Xiao Xiao were equally gifted, facing three-ring opponents as two-ring soul masters—especially with a support-type soul master against an agility attack-type soul master—was still too difficult for them.

Wang Donger's Radiant Goddess Butterfly was beginning to struggle against Dai Huabin's White Tiger Fierce Light Waves.

Every time she used Butterfly Guillotine, Dai Huabin's tiger claws forcibly tore it apart. The recoil left her arms numb with pain.

Empowered by White Tiger Vajra Transformation, Dai Huabin's attacks grew increasingly ferocious. His tiger claws tore through the air with sharp howls, forcing Wang Donger back again and again.

Fine beads of sweat had already formed on her forehead.

Xiao Xiao's situation was no better.

Zhu Lu's Netherworld Spirit Cat movement technique was incredibly elusive. One moment she appeared on the left, the next she circled behind Xiao Xiao, every thrust precisely targeting gaps in Xiao Xiao's defense.

Although Xiao Xiao's Three Lives Soul-Calming Cauldron defended without a single flaw, Zhu Lu was simply too fast. Xiao Xiao could only defend passively and had no chance to counterattack.

Her soul power was also draining rapidly.

Jiang Ziming could not help complaining inwardly.

Those two were so adamant before the match, saying they didn't need my carrots and wanted to win through their own strength.

And yet they can't get by without me at all.

With that thought, the boy leisurely walked toward Dai Huabin and Wang Donger.

Dai Huabin caught sight of Jiang Ziming approaching from the corner of his eye, and his heart tightened. He no longer had the mood to keep suppressing Wang Donger.

He knew all too well how monstrous Jiang Ziming was. He could only immediately fire a White Tiger Fierce Light Wave to force Wang Donger back, then shouted at Zhu Lu at once:

"Zhu Lu!"
