Because his presence was too strong, the moment Qian Mo made a move, he attracted the attention of countless people.
Naturally, Bibi Dong and the other man were among them.
As Qian Mo approached, a flicker of jealousy flashed through Yu Xiaogang's eyes, but it was quickly concealed by smugness.
However, Yu Xiaogang controlled his expression and emotions well. Before long, he was watching Qian Mo curiously, just like everyone else.
But Qian Mo, blessed with the Halovian's talent, was exceptionally sensitive to changes in mental states. Yu Xiaogang's string of psychological shifts was immediately noticed by him.
Qian Mo did not care about it in the slightest.
It could not be helped. After absorbing only two Soul Rings on this Hormone Continent, Qian Mo had already completely reached Sunday's peak looks. It was perfectly normal for certain people to be jealous.
Qian Mo simply could not figure out what Yu Xiaogang was feeling so smug about.
They had not even properly met yet. What the hell were you so proud of? Do I even know you?
Soon, Qian Mo arrived before Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang. He gave them a slight nod in greeting before apologetically saying,
"Sorry to interrupt the two of you while you're cultivating your relationship."
The moment those words came out, Bibi Dong's cheeks immediately flushed crimson. In the first bloom of love, she instinctively wanted to argue.
Her relationship with Yu Xiaogang was just friendship. They were n-not some couple cultivating their relationship~
But Qian Mo abruptly changed the direction of his words, his expression turning serious.
"However, please mind the setting. This is a library, a place for studying. Your loud chatter has already disturbed everyone else.
I can understand that Your Highness the Saintess did not come here often before and did not know the rules.
But since you have come here many times recently, please understand and abide by the rules here!"
Facing Qian Mo at that moment, Bibi Dong felt as though she were facing an elder and unconsciously nodded in agreement.
When the onlookers heard that Qian Mo had specifically approached Bibi Dong over this matter, every one of them looked at him with admiration.
They cheered inwardly again and again, calling Qian Mo a true warrior!
But just as everyone watched Bibi Dong prepare to admit her mistake and promise not to do it again,
Yu Xiaogang stepped forward!
As Yu Xiaogang, whose future theories would be a complete mess but whose practical achievements in chasing women were exceptionally formidable, well understood,
A man needed to be tough when it was time to be tough and gentle when it was time to be gentle.
Especially when a woman's heart was at its most uncertain, he had to make himself seem grand and imposing. Only then could he better win her heart!
This theory came from a secret manual on chasing women left behind by a flirtatious elder of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect a century ago~
Yu Xiaogang stood up with a righteous expression, stretched out an arm to block Qian Mo, and said solemnly,
"Brother, the rules you mentioned certainly make sense.
But since there is no explicit prohibition above, I do not think there is any need to be so rigid.
Furthermore, I believe that if academic matters are not discussed and one merely works behind closed doors, it will be absolutely impossible to advance further.
Additionally, I also think..."
For a moment, Yu Xiaogang actually began rambling on endlessly.
Though everything he said was nonsense, some people around them actually nodded along foolishly in agreement!?
Seeing this, the corner of Qian Mo's mouth twitched uncontrollably.
No, you people actually believed Yu Xiaogang's bullshit?
Where could academic discussion not take place? It could even happen in bed, yet you insisted on talking out loud in a place where others were studying and disrupting their thoughts. Wasn't that just causing trouble for no reason?
And if he truly came up with some useful theory, Yu Xiaogang would probably turn around and publish it to prove himself.
Qian Mo inwardly cursed this group of people as idiots.
Qian Mo even felt that if the Martial Soul Hall were handed over to these people in the future, then even without Bibi Dong, it would sooner or later be finished!
Thinking of the miserable future in which the Martial Soul Hall was destroyed and the Angel Clan might be reduced to rats in the street for a long time afterward,
Qian Mo could not help taking a deep breath before coldly interrupting Yu Xiaogang's speech.
"What you say makes sense, sir. But as an outsider, you are studying our theories right in front of all of us from the Martial Soul Hall.
And you are even making a grand show of flaunting them before our Saintess.
Is that not somewhat inappropriate?"
As soon as he said this, the already quiet library fell completely silent.
The looks the others gave Yu Xiaogang gradually became rather subtle as well.
Although the Martial Soul Hall library did not record any top-secret Soul Master knowledge,
the minimum requirement to enter was still to become a member of the Martial Soul Hall and make a certain contribution before earning the right to borrow its books.
And now, an outsider!
Was shamelessly enjoying resources that they had only obtained through painstaking effort right before their eyes.
Could they tolerate that!
Well, the facts proved that this group really could tolerate it.
It could not be helped. Yu Xiaogang's backer was Bibi Dong, after all.
At that moment, Bibi Dong finally snapped out of her lovestruck state of admiring Yu Xiaogang's "heroic bearing" and hurriedly explained,
"You misunderstood Xiao Gang. The reason he can come to the Martial Soul Hall to borrow books is because my teacher approved it. There is absolutely no problem."
Qian Mo nodded noncommittally.
"Is that so? Then I was indeed meddling in matters that were not my concern."
Qian Mo then turned his attention back to Bibi Dong, his primary target, and said with a sincere expression,
"However, if Your Highness the Saintess wishes to study theory, I would still recommend seeking guidance from the elders in the Hall.
Some people's theories may sound fine at first glance, but even from the fragments I have heard, I can tell that they are riddled with errors.
If Your Highness takes them to heart, they will only bring you harm and no benefit."
Bibi Dong was somewhat stunned. She was lovestruck, but she was not stupid. Yu Xiaogang had been the only one discussing theory with her just now.
So Qian Mo was practically pointing at Yu Xiaogang's nose and calling him someone who misled others!
But before Bibi Dong could defend Yu Xiaogang,
Yu Xiaogang, who had not yet been repeatedly ravaged by reality, was still quite high-spirited. He slammed his hand onto the table and roared,
"Bastard, what did you say! You actually said there is something wrong with my theories!
I developed those theories after consulting vast amounts of material and organizing my conclusions. They are supported by countless examples as evidence. What gives you the right to say there is something wrong with my theories?!"
Bibi Dong also came to her senses then and chimed in from the side.
"Yes, I think what Xiao Gang said makes perfect sense too.
Isn't the reason our Martial Soul Hall has won the Soul Master Tournament year after year precisely because of the team composition of the Fusion Style?
And I think the sixth Soul Ring Xiao Gang planned for me is quite good as well. Not only does it make up for my lack of offensive methods, it also carries powerful poison and can deal wide-area damage."
Faced with their questions and counterarguments, Qian Mo, who had already prepared his response, reacted very calmly.
The Fusion Style Bibi Dong spoke of referred to every Soul Master in a team following their own developmental direction, cultivating a single aspect to the utmost limit, and then maximizing the team's combat strength through seamless coordination.
