Sorry, My Orientation Is Normal. I Like Beautiful Women, Not Men

Although Tang San's grudge against Spirit Hall had nothing to do with him, after Spirit Hall was destroyed, the lives of ordinary people had not improved in the slightest. Instead, they had only become more difficult.

Not to mention the rampaging evil soul masters and the Sun Moon Empire eyeing them like a tiger watching its prey—even the fact that people had to pay out of pocket to awaken their martial souls was enough to leave him with no favorable impression of this God King Tang.

Everyone else developed for the better, but him? After destroying Spirit Hall, he washed his hands of everything and took his family straight to the Divine Realm to be his God King.

Leaving only the Heaven Dou Empire and Star Luo Empire down here to fight each other.

And look what happened.

Not only did the Heaven Dou Empire split into the Heaven Soul Empire and Dou Ling Empire, but Star Luo's gains were also stolen by the Xu family.

Of course, that was not even the most important part. The most important part was that none of the three countries would yield to the others, and they fought with blazing intensity.

In the end, the only ones hurt were still the ordinary commoners.

The freshmen's classroom was far larger than expected, enough to hold over a hundred people.

Quite a few students were already seated inside, chatting in small groups of two or three. The atmosphere was rather lively.

Li Changqing and Bei Bei found seats near the middle and waited for the teacher to arrive.

Before long, a faint commotion came from the classroom entrance.

Two figures walked in from outside.

The one in front was a young girl in a white dress.

She had long, smooth golden hair and a gentle, stunningly beautiful face, her delicate features like those of a fairy who had stepped out of a painting.

The hem of her white dress swayed lightly with her steps, making her seem fresh and ethereal, as though she came with her own soft-focus glow.

It was Jiang Nannan.

Following behind her was Ye Guyi.

She had changed into a light gold dress today. Though she did not possess Jiang Nannan's breathtaking beauty,

the noble, sacred aura around her made her equally eye-catching amid the crowd.

Especially those golden eyes of hers—clear and bright, carrying an inborn pride and determination.

The moment the two walked into the classroom side by side, the air in the entire room seemed to freeze for an instant.

Every boy's gaze turned toward them in unison.

Some gaped with their mouths wide open. Some forgot to breathe. Some dropped the pens in their hands without even noticing.

Even someone like Bei Bei, who was used to seeing beautiful women, could not help but be stunned after clearly seeing their faces.

After recovering, he nudged Li Changqing with his elbow and lowered his voice. "Hey, Changqing, I didn't expect the freshmen this year to be of such high quality."

Li Changqing glanced toward the door and casually replied, "They're indeed not bad."

Bei Bei's gaze swept back and forth between Jiang Nannan and Ye Guyi a few times. Then he leaned closer and asked quietly, "Which of those two beauties do you think is prettier?"

Li Changqing barely hesitated before raising a hand and pointing at Jiang Nannan on the left. "Do you even need to ask? Obviously the one on the left."

Following his finger, Bei Bei stroked his chin and gave his own opinion. "I think the one on the right is better. The one on the left is admittedly more exquisite-looking, but the one on the right has a very special temperament. A sort of... sacred and noble feeling. It's quite attractive."

Li Changqing merely gave a noncommittal "Oh" and did not continue arguing about it.

Just then, Ye Guyi's gaze swept across the classroom and quickly locked onto Li Changqing's position.

Her eyes lit up. Grabbing Jiang Nannan's hand, she walked straight toward them.

At the sight, Bei Bei's heartbeat involuntarily quickened.

He instinctively sat up straighter, cleared his throat, and put on what he believed was his gentlest, most handsome smile, ready to welcome the two beauties.

However, in the next second, his smile froze on his face.

Ye Guyi walked up to Li Changqing and, without a word, sat directly in the empty seat beside him.

Then, under Bei Bei's watchful gaze, she turned her head and said with a mildly reproachful tone, "Why didn't you come shopping with us last night?"

Bei Bei went completely blank.

Slowly, he turned his head toward Li Changqing, his eyes filled with shock and confusion.

Wait...

Bro?

What's going on?

You know each other?

Faced with Ye Guyi's question, Li Changqing replied as though it were only natural. "You girls were going shopping. Why would I tag along? I didn't have anything to buy, so I might as well have gone back to sleep."

Ye Guyi curled her lips. She did not say much else, only muttering that he had no sense of romance before letting the matter go.

Only then did she notice Bei Bei sitting beside Li Changqing. Tilting her head slightly, she asked Li Changqing with her eyes, Who's this?

Li Changqing casually introduced him. "My roommate, Bei Bei."

Ye Guyi nodded politely. "Hello, I'm Ye Guyi."

Coming back to his senses, Bei Bei hurriedly forced out a gentle smile. "Hello, hello. I'm Bei Bei. Please take care of me."

After exchanging greetings, Bei Bei very consciously stood up, gathered his things, and moved to an empty seat in the back row.

He felt like he would be a third wheel if he stayed there.

And a particularly high-wattage one at that.

Damn it.

Wasn't he supposed to be a commoner soul master?

How did he have such beautiful female friends?

And two of them showed up at once?

Was that right?

Was that even reasonable?

Sitting in the back row, Bei Bei watched Li Changqing with Ye Guyi seated on his left and Jiang Nannan on his right, looking as though he had a beauty in each arm. A complicated feeling rose within him.

Envy?

Jealousy?

Or simple curiosity?

He could not tell.

In any case, he felt that this roommate of his was probably no ordinary person.

Otherwise, how could he cultivate faster than Bei Bei while having two gorgeous beauties around him? What kind of joke was that?

The day's classes finally came to an end as the sun set.

The teacher at the podium gathered up the lesson materials and announced that class was over. The classroom immediately filled with the noisy sounds of people packing their things.

Li Changqing closed his notebook and was just about to get up and leave when he suddenly felt someone lean in from behind.

Turning around, he saw Bei Bei's brightly smiling face pressed close to his shoulder in an extremely enthusiastic manner.

"Changqing, are you free tonight?" Bei Bei asked with a smile.

Li Changqing looked utterly puzzled. "What are you trying to do?"

A moment later, his pupils contracted slightly as though he had thought of something. He immediately raised a hand in a stopping gesture and said solemnly, "Sorry, my orientation is normal. I like beautiful women, not men."

The instant his words fell, the air seemed to freeze.

The smile on Bei Bei's face stiffened, and he turned to stone on the spot.

Jiang Nannan and Ye Guyi beside them were also stunned.

They instinctively exchanged a glance, then almost simultaneously moved two steps to the side, widening the distance between themselves and Bei Bei. Their eyes held a trace of disgust, as if saying, I never expected you to be that kind of person.

Bei Bei: ...

It's over. My reputation is ruined!
