Why Did You Bring Them Here to Join a Dating Show?

"To you, I'll always have this attitude!"

Zhu Zhuqing gave Dai Mubai a deep look. After having accumulated enough disappointment long ago, she seemed remarkably calm now.

With that, Zhu Zhuqing strode forward. Perhaps a new life awaited her ahead.

"Fine! Let's see how long you can keep acting so high and mighty!"

Dai Mubai was furious as well. He decided to stop concerning himself with anything Zhu Zhuqing did and let her suffer a little. Without their help, how far could Zhu Zhuqing possibly go, even if she knew some crooked tricks?

"These people are utterly rotten!"

Ning Rongrong secretly rolled her eyes at Dai Mubai. He spoke as if he had done so much for Zhu Zhuqing. Where did he get the nerve?

"What is it this time? Can't you keep the peace for once along the way?"

Their argument alerted Grandmaster and the others at the front. Tang San and Flender turned back to ask what had happened, but their words, intentionally or not, targeted Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing ignored them. In their eyes, Dai Mubai carried more weight than she did, so the grievance always fell upon her. But she no longer cared.

"It's nothing!"

Dai Mubai shot Zhu Zhuqing a vicious glare and walked forward with his head lowered, as though he were the one who had been wronged.

"Third Brother! Why do you always seem so dissatisfied with Zhuqing?"

Xiao Wu found an opportunity to speak to Tang San alone in private. Given Tang San's intelligence, he immediately guessed that Dai Mubai must have said something without thinking.

"Xiao Wu, you misunderstand. We're all part of Shrek Academy. How could there be any deep hatred between us? It's just that Zhuqing doesn't seem to have integrated into the group yet, and she seems to have some estrangement from Boss Dai. We only hope they can let go of their old grudges and work hard together for tomorrow."

Tang San had the soul of an adult, and his words were orderly and persuasive. At first listen, he truly sounded as though he meant well.

"But if Zhuqing hasn't done anything wrong, does she still need to accommodate others and change?"

Xiao Wu did not actually know what old grudge Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai shared, and the bullet comments had not mentioned it either. However, from Zhu Zhuqing's character and the disgusting things the bullet comments repeatedly mentioned Dai Mubai doing, she could guess that Zhu Zhuqing was definitely the one who had suffered.

"This... of course not. I don't know the truth of the matter either. I just think Zhuqing should change her attitude a little too..."

Tang San was briefly at a loss for words, but his expectations of Zhu Zhuqing made his position clear: Zhu Zhuqing had better not have too many ideas of her own and should become more accommodating toward everyone.

Xiao Wu opened her mouth to say something, but the words reached her lips and would not come out. She seemed to understand Tang San's character a little better...

"Seventh Sister, are you still angry? Want a fragrant big sausage?"

"Or how about Fatty puts on a performance for you? A beauty like you should smile more!"

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai fall out, Oscar and Ma Hongjun exchanged glances and launched their offensive. Under the banner of easing the atmosphere, they hovered around Zhu Zhuqing.

Ning Rongrong had rolled her eyes enough for one day. She stepped forward, pushed Ma Hongjun away, and stayed by Zhu Zhuqing's side herself.

"Good grief! Did they come here for a picnic?"

"Pretty much! Liu Erlong explained the Soul Beasts they encountered to Gu Zhi, while Gu Zhi taught Liu Erlong about all kinds of spirit herbs and spirit plants he collected. Am I watching Animal World?"

"What kind of fruit are they eating? The color and appearance look way too tempting!"

"What great honey! Brother Gu, can you put some up for sale online for me?"

"What beautiful flowers! Can't you not use them as medicine? Wouldn't it be lovely to grow them just for appreciation?"

"That—big—bird? It must be delicious roasted! Don't let it go! Let me see Gu Zhi's cooking again!"

"There must be something huge in that pond! Brother Gu, cast a few lines for me! I can't take it anymore! I'm going to figure out how to transmigrate right now!"

"Brother above, don't panic! Brother Gu is casting his line for you!"

Sure enough, only the bullet comments reporting on Gu Zhi and Liu Erlong could soothe Zhu Zhuqing's aggrieved heart. Though things over there looked peaceful and idyllic enough to make her a little jealous, merely hearing Gu Zhi's name made her feel incomparably safe.

"No way! You can even fish up chests? Gu Zhi, did you open it?"

"Who still cares about the chest? Can't you see that—big—fish? Holy crap, a hundred-pound king! Why didn't you post it on your social feed?"

"This is truly satisfying! They opened more than twenty chests in a single day! They saw all kinds of scenery and ate to their hearts' content too!"

"Where's the historian? Report Gu Zhi's gains for today!"

"The historian is here! Gu Zhi's gains today: twenty-one Blue Chests, five Purple Chests. In total: Attack +46, Speed +46, Endurance +46, Mental Power +46, Physical Strength +46, Physical Constitution +46, Skill Proficiency +46, Soul Ring Age +25, Soul Skill Damage +25, Spirit Bone Age +25, Level-Four Soul Tools +15, Disposable Spirit Talismans +20, Disposable Formations +5, Basic Pills +20, Rare Materials +20, Basic Cultivation Techniques +5, Basic Movement Techniques +5, Basic Immortal Arts +5, Basic Dharma Artifacts +10. In addition, he obtained twenty spirit herbs suitable for medicine, thirty spirit plants suitable for transplanting, fifteen medicinal herbs of various attributes, and a number of other treasures..."

"Good, good, good! A single day's gains can match another person's year of bitter cultivation! Strongest Deity System, do you dare open your eyes and look at me? I refuse to believe you're blind!"

"Forget the increase in cultivation! The key is that he has such a gorgeous beauty keeping him company! I'm so jealous! I object to this marriage!"

"They're a talented man and beautiful woman! Who are you, some monster, to oppose it here?"

"I'm dying from shipping them! Why are they so sweet? Their increasingly tacit cooperation! Those lingering, unspoken looks! Those brief touches that part at once! As expected, shipping everything is the only way to maintain balanced nutrition!"

"Oh no! They brought Gu Zhi here to join a dating show! Sister Liu, look at me too! I refuse to believe you're blind as well!"

"Brother up front, quit it! I almost sprayed my food everywhere!"

"Come to think of it, did Liu Erlong also benefit from the system rewards by forming a team? Does anyone know the details?"

"That reminds me! Let me rewind and check carefully!"

Unlike the tense standoff at Shrek Academy, Gu Zhi and Liu Erlong's journey through the Star Dou Great Forest looked not only relaxing, but so pleasant that one might think they had come for a dating show!

Perhaps Gu Zhi had not considered it in that way yet, but Liu Erlong truly had such thoughts!

"Sister Liu! Come taste my special grilled fish!"

"Not bad! This skill is incredible! Xiao Gu, why don't you come be my personal chef?"

It was mealtime, and the Star Dou Great Forest had darkened as well. Gu Zhi and Liu Erlong were wholly unafraid of the darkness within. Not only did they set up camp by the shore, they leisurely enjoyed a feast of grilled fish.

"No! How can delicious food go without fine wine? Xiao Gu, this is wine that I've treasured away! Today, we must drink until we're thoroughly drunk!"

Liu Erlong suddenly brought out two jars of fine wine. Since she possessed the Fire Dragon Martial Soul, it was only natural that she enjoyed a little drink.

Gu Zhi paused. He did not usually drink much, and after transmigrating, he had remained rather cautious, never allowing himself to fall into a drunken state.

However, because his physical constitution had improved, his resistance to intoxication had increased considerably. Thus, he was not afraid to drink with Liu Erlong!
