After a long while, Qian Renxue put down her pen.
At that moment, she was certain.
The world wasn't crazy. She was. She had actually believed that writing a diary could make her stronger...
"Why did I believe him?" Qian Renxue held her forehead and laughed bitterly.
Just as Qian Renxue was lost in thought, she noticed that Chu Bai's diary had begun updating again. Her interest immediately piqued. She poured herself a cup of tea, sat down, and focused intently on its contents.
Meanwhile, in a warmly and luxuriously decorated room within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong was lying sprawled across her soft bed, her two delicate little feet gently swaying in the air.
"Life at home really is much easier. At least I don't have to see Dai Mubai's ugly face every day. He should take a look at his own strength before picking a fight with me just because he couldn't beat someone else."
Ning Rongrong was clearly still holding a grudge over Dai Mubai falsely accusing her.
But then she noticed that, sometime earlier, a diary had appeared among the dolls in front of her. She picked it up and saw several large words emerge on its cover: "Chu Bai's Diary Instance."
"Chu Bai's... diary?"
Ning Rongrong looked at it in confusion. "Why is Chu Bai's diary here? I didn't take anything from him. Did it deliver itself?"
"Reading someone else's diary doesn't seem right..."
After hesitating for a moment, Ning Rongrong secretly opened it anyway.
"Chu Bai isn't here, and we're so close. He definitely won't mind."
The moment she opened it, Ning Rongrong stared in astonishment as lines of text began appearing on the diary's pages by themselves.
[Today, I fought Qian Renxue. Ah, it was amazing. I've never felt so good before. This kind of intense two-person battle, sometimes fierce, sometimes slow—it really gets the blood pumping!]
Bibi Dong: "..."
Xiao Wu: "..."
Ning Rongrong: "..."
Qian Renxue: "Chu Bai! What the hell are you writing? Why did a sparring match become so indecent when you described it?!"
Ning Rongrong's face was full of question marks. "Th-this was written by Chu Bai? What kind of two-person battle is that? Why does it sound so much like..."
Bibi Dong was equally puzzled. "I must be overthinking it. But Xiao Bai has already met Little Xue, and they even sparred? Although Xiao Bai is very talented, he probably still isn't Little Xue's match."
[Ah, I'm still too weak. I actually got hurt by my own soul skill. But with my current strength, even a Soul Douluo would suffer if they were careless against me. After all, the power of the Grass Character Sword Art is plain for all to see. Even the true form of the Six-Winged Angel spirit was shattered by a single strike.]
[As expected of a treasure art from one of the Ancient Ten Fiends! Although it became a soul skill of my Second Martial Soul here, it still possesses unrivaled power.]
The girls became even more confused.
"Ancient Ten Fiends... what is that? Why have I never heard of it? And it sounds like Little Xue actually lost to Xiao Bai? How could such an enormous gap in strength have been overcome? Was it because of the Second Martial Soul...?"
Bibi Dong was completely baffled.
Only now did she feel that, despite watching Chu Bai grow up, she did not understand him at all. He still had many secrets that she knew nothing about.
"Is this really Chu Bai's diary? Could it be updating in real time?" Ning Rongrong examined it closely.
[I never expected Ning Rongrong to choose to leave Shrek Academy. But that's for the best. If she stayed with that bunch, sooner or later she'd drag herself down with them. I originally thought Tang San and the others had been exaggerated for jokes, but after meeting them... I realized the internet users had been far too restrained...]
[There isn't a single normal person in that academy. Oscar too—don't think I won't beat him up just because he secretly makes sausages in the back. Next time we meet, I'll smash his sausages into mashed potatoes!]
[So I'm confused again. Why would Ning Rongrong end up liking this guy? Fine, he does become pretty decent later on, but right now, he's definitely no good.]
Ning Rongrong, who had been reading the diary, did not react at first when the subject suddenly turned to her. But everything written in it had indeed happened over the past two days.
As a result, Ning Rongrong began to believe the diary was real.
"I'm going to like Oscar?" Ning Rongrong's face was full of disbelief. "How is that possible? Compared to Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, Oscar is at least somewhat normal, and he doesn't look bad either. But how could this young lady's taste be so terrible?"
[Don't be fooled by that guy acting normal on the surface. Normal, my ass. Would a normal person have a nickname like Great Sausage Uncle? I refuse to believe that after hanging around Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun every day, he's never been to a brothel.]
[When he first entered the academy, he even discussed it with Tang San. He said Dai Mubai had his eye on that icy Zhu Qing, Xiao Wu belonged to Tang San, so he could only pick Ning Rongrong.]
[I have to say, that's impressive. Bro, are you choosing consorts? Did those girls enroll in the academy so you could pick yourself a wife? How can you think that beautifully?]
Ning Rongrong's little face twisted with anger as she read that passage.
"That Oscar really is no good! This young lady will never fall in love with someone like him!"
With nowhere to vent her anger, Ning Rongrong could only furiously pound her dolls.
"..." Xiao Wu took a deep breath. She was becoming more and more convinced that there was not a single normal person in Shrek Academy.
Meanwhile, the diary continued.
[It's one thing for Ma Hongjun's martial soul to have a flaw, but that flaw is ridiculous. He actually has to go to brothels to vent his fire, and Flender and Zhao Wuji even take him there? Is that supposed to be an academy? I refuse to believe Oscar and Dai Mubai have never gone with him.]
[What kind of teachers are those? Hilarious. Still, that's about all there is to criticize about Oscar.]
Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, who were reading the diary with great interest, both commented, "Mm, then Oscar does count as fairly normal."
[But isn't Ning Rongrong also a brainless woman? She followed Tang San and threw everything away for him. In the end, Chen Xin and Gu Rong both died saving Tang San. Poor Ning Fengzhi turned gray overnight, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect suddenly no longer had any Titled Douluo.]
Ning Rongrong's expression instantly froze as she read the diary.
She stared blankly at the words appearing on its pages. Her beloved Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Bone would actually die in the future to save Tang San!
"No, that can't be... I can't let Grandpa Jian and Grandpa Bone come to harm."
Ning Rongrong abruptly stood up, wanting to tell everyone about it.
But she could not say any of it. It was as though some rule was restricting her, making her completely unable to tell anyone what was written in the diary. And even if she could say it, it was something that would happen in the future. Who would believe her?
