Watching Ning Rongrong's face alternate between flushed and pale, her eyes moist with pleading, Qian Ni smiled kindly.
"Rongrong-san, I still prefer you when you're all wild and unruly.
"Please go back to being like that."
Ning Rongrong suddenly recalled how, earlier that day, Qian Ni's scorching Soul Power had continuously poured into her body. She could not help gritting her teeth.
Hot, stuffed, swollen...
Just what level is this guy's Soul Power at? Even with a Twin-Winged Bird martial soul, this is going too far. It just forced its way in...
Qian Ni turned to Zhu Zhuqing.
"Little Zhu, it's not that I want to criticize you, but you caused such a huge mess last night and wasted such a precious treasure.
"Then today, you left without even saying goodbye. Isn't that a bit too much?
"You wouldn't want your little secret from last night to be known by everyone else, would you?"
Last night? What secret?
Zhu Zhuqing immediately recalled the unbearable memory of being locked inside the bathroom of a hotel suite, taking cold showers while frantically mining and pounding on the door.
In that instant, all her courage to escape vanished.
Little Zhu yielded to reality and lowered her head dejectedly.
What else could she do? She could not beat him, could not run away, and Qian Ni, that little bastard, held a devastatingly embarrassing secret over her.
She could only obey.
Xiao Wu had no idea what had happened and looked at her two companions strangely.
Could they be in that kind of relationship?
Just then, the four boys of the Shrek Seven Monsters arrived one after another.
"Little San!" Xiao Wu waved happily and pulled Tang San down to sit on the grass.
Without saying a word, Dai Mubai chose a spot somewhat farther from Zhu Zhuqing and sat beside Tang San.
Ma Hongjun and Oscar sat down as well.
Ma Hongjun seemed to have just returned from outside the academy. Upon seeing Qian Ni, the lecherous fat man muttered a few words and glanced at Oscar.
"Xiao Ao, you finally won't need to hide that bitch face of yours anymore.
"Someone even prettier than you has arrived.
"Can a guy really look that good...?"
The two of them had already learned from Flender that Qian Ni was the academy's investor.
With the god of wealth right here, even Ma Hongjun did not dare let his mouth run too wild.
The academy's food was awful. He was still counting on Qian Ni's arrival to improve it.
"Wasn't this supposed to be a bonfire party? Where's the fire? Is this a picnic?"
Once everyone was seated, Ma Hongjun asked curiously.
Hearing that, Qian Ni waved a hand like some grand old master and called out.
"Little Zhu, go set up a bonfire!"
Upon hearing the order, Zhu Zhuqing felt a little resistant, but her body honestly rose to its feet.
Before she could leave, Dai Mubai stopped her and looked at Qian Ni with displeasure.
"Why are you making Zhuqing do it? You're the one holding the bonfire party, so you should do it!"
The barbs in his words immediately made everyone present smell drama.
Before Qian Ni could answer, Zhu Zhuqing seemed to react as if triggered and glared at Dai Mubai.
"Dai Mubai, we're not close. Please call me by my full name!
"My affairs have nothing to do with you."
As she spoke, she tried to walk around Dai Mubai.
The next moment, Dai Mubai's Soul Power suddenly erupted. He activated Martial Soul Possession, and White Tiger traits appeared across his body.
The others were somewhat at a loss when they heard Dai Mubai continue.
"Nothing to do with me? We have an engagement, yet you and him... you and him..."
Dai Mubai trailed off halfway through. What could he say? That his fiancée had shared a room with another man in a love hotel? But he had provided the room himself!
If word got out, Dai Weisi would laugh so hard he might spare his life!
Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhuqing had already decided to throw caution to the wind.
I ran away from home to find you and depend on each other, but you were living it up in Heaven Dou, whoring around to your heart's content?
She still remembered the smug expression on Dai Mubai's face yesterday as he held the twin beauties in his arms.
"With him what? Got a room? Didn't you provide the room yourself?
"Oh, and I forgot to tell you—the money you accepted came from me too."
That sentence was like a bomb, instantly detonating among the Seven Monsters.
"Hiss..." Oscar sucked in a sharp breath, his eyes widening like bells.
"Boss Dai! You..." Ma Hongjun wore much the same expression, looking at Dai Mubai in utter shock.
Tang San was dumbfounded as well. He had never expected Shrek Academy to be this wild!
Ma Hongjun was a seasoned young playboy.
Aside from his fondness for double-slit interference experiments, Dai Mubai had this little-known hobby too!
Even Oscar, the only relatively normal one, had Soul Skill incantations that were anything but proper.
After counting them all, among the four boys, he was somehow the only one pure and spotless!
As for Qian Ni, Tang San did not know him well enough yet, but judging from Zhu Zhuqing's situation, he was surely no ordinary person either!
He could not help whispering to Xiao Wu, "Xiao Wu, I can tell now. Everyone in this academy has their own special talents!"
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes. As the only Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast here, she was the one who truly possessed extraordinary skills!
Having been contradicted by Zhu Zhuqing and exposed in public, Dai Mubai immediately lost face.
"You!"
His raised palm stopped abruptly in midair.
"Hit me!" Zhu Zhuqing refused to give an inch and glared fiercely back at him.
Dai Mubai forcibly suppressed his rage and looked toward Qian Ni.
"Among Soul Masters, strength should speak for itself. I don't think we need this bonfire after all.
"We're all from the same academy. Why not spar?"
His voice seemed to squeeze through clenched teeth.
It was obvious that he wanted to fight Qian Ni.
But recalling Qian Ni's shameless display of riding Ning Rongrong to charge at Zhao Wuji during the day, Dai Mubai added.
"What's the point of relying only on external aid? Only your own strength is true strength!"
Clap! Clap! Clap!
Qian Ni applauded vigorously and shouted in wholehearted agreement.
"Well said!"
He seemed to have been moved by Dai Mubai's words.
"Little Zhu, sit down!"
Qian Ni slowly rose to his feet. The night breeze brushed past him, making his silver hair dance lightly, while his azure eyes shimmered beneath the moonlight.
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing stared somewhat blankly.
Ning Rongrong especially blushed even more deeply, a faint rosy color spreading all the way to the tips of her ears.
Xiao Wu was momentarily entranced too, but quickly came back to herself and looked at Tang San.
She saw a somewhat gloomy face.
There was nothing to be done about it. Qian Ni was simply more handsome, more dashing, and more strikingly refined than Tang San.
With his hands clasped behind his back, Qian Ni looked at Dai Mubai and spoke slowly.
"When I awakened my Twin-Winged Bird martial soul at six, I possessed Innate Full Soul Power. Yet not a single day since then has brought me happiness.
"A top-tier support martial soul? What use is that? It only makes one a weakling hiding behind others.
"A strong man should use his own hands to crush everything before him!"
Qian Ni's tone was resolute and his presence imposing. He did not look like a support-type Soul Master at all, but rather like a battle-hardened assault-type Soul Master!
Only then did the Shrek Seven Monsters remember that Qian Ni's Twin-Winged Bird was a support martial soul!
Dai Mubai was the true battle Soul Elder!
Then wasn't his initiative in challenging Qian Ni nothing but bullying the weak with his strength?
How shameless!
For a moment, the six of them looked at Dai Mubai with such strange expressions that his entire face flushed red with embarrassment.
He had only thought about venting his anger and forgotten about that!
If a support Soul Master did not rely on Soul Tools and teammates, what was he supposed to rely on?
The north?
Although Qian Ni riding Ning Rongrong into battle looked a little insane, as long as one ignored the fact that Ning Rongrong was also a support Soul Master, there was nothing wrong with it logically.
Hearing that Qian Ni possessed Innate Full Soul Power, Tang San could not hide the amazement on his face.
"Another person with Innate Full Soul Power? Isn't that aptitude supposed to be extremely rare?"
Tang San knew clearly that his own Innate Full Soul Power had come from cultivation. It was earned through labor and did not count.
What he did not know was that Qian Ni's Innate Full Soul Power also involved a little effort.
Meanwhile, the situation changed again.
Qian Ni walked to one side and assumed a fighting stance.
"Come on! Dai Mubai, I won't use Soul Tools or teammates. I'll rely only on myself and show you what a true strong man is!"
Battle was about to erupt!
