"Miss, surely there's such a thing as first come, first served."
Tang San's interference left Ning Rongrong very displeased.
"What? You have that much money? Then I'll add another five thousand!"
Ning Rongrong spent money as though the wind had blown it into her hands.
Tang San's face immediately twitched. If he wanted to secure these two pills now, he would have to spend another five thousand Gold Soul Coins.
By forcing him to spend more Gold Soul Coins, this pink-haired bitch had already courted death!
And she was so wealthy, too. Tang San felt that killing her would be a tremendous opportunity.
Still, he remained confident that he could secure these two pills.
He took a hidden weapon out of his storage device and said:
"Miss, I think it's quite dangerous for you to be all alone. I have a treasure here called Sand and Shadow. It can kill Soul Masters below rank thirty. Even Soul Masters above rank thirty can easily fall victim to it if they have no resistance to poison!"
"I see your Soul Power is only in the twenties. With this weapon, you'd have the power to fight a three-ring Soul Elder."
"I only accept cash. If you don't have cash right now, you can leave."
Zhu Zhuqing thought Tang San was terribly annoying. She still wanted to get these Gold Soul Coins and hurry back to draw prizes.
Tang San's gaze narrowed, a chill flashing through it. She actually failed to appreciate a favor so badly. She had already courted death!
But so many people were watching, and he still had to enroll. He couldn't give others the impression that he murdered people to seize their wealth.
So he turned to Ning Rongrong and said, "How about I sell you this treasure cheaply? All I want is the twenty-five thousand Gold Soul Coins you have here."
"You want to swindle me out of my money with a lousy bamboo tube? Do you take me for an idiot? Get out of the way. Stop holding up my pill purchase!"
What kind of hidden weapon could kill a Soul Elder?
Couldn't he look at the dogshit in his hands before trying to fool someone?
Sand and Shadow, was it?
What sand?
And what snake?
The name alone sounded shady.
Tang San was so angry that his face turned the color of pig liver.
Unfortunately, he had no money, so there was nothing he could do.
Hmph!
In any case, he would remember Ning Rongrong. Sooner or later, there would be a chance to take back what he wanted.
Tang San stepped aside with an icy expression, and Ning Rongrong generously set down the Gold Soul Coins.
Zhu Zhuqing took out five thousand of them and said to Ning Rongrong:
"I'll only take twenty thousand Gold Soul Coins for these two pills."
She planned to trade with Ning Rongrong again in the future, so she wanted to leave her with a good impression.
"Hm? I've never taken back money I've spent. If you have anything good in the future, remember to sell it to me. I'll be at this school. You can come find me anytime."
Without even looking at anything else, Ning Rongrong excitedly put the pills into her storage device. Suddenly, she craned her neck and sniffed Zhu Zhuqing.
"You smell of Mystic Water Pills. Have you used one?"
"Yes! My Soul Power rose from rank twenty-seven to rank twenty-eight after I used a Mystic Water Pill."
Zhu Zhuqing nodded, then added with a slight smile,
"Not only that, but my skin also became better after I absorbed the Mystic Water Pill. My body was pure and unblemished inside, fresh and comfortable."
She only said this because Ning Rongrong was a girl.
She also reminded her, "You'd better be in a bathroom when you use the Mystic Water Pill."
"Your skin really is so soft and dewy, even better than mine with all my skincare. Is that really the Mystic Water Pill's effect?"
Ning Rongrong pinched Zhu Zhuqing's arm as she spoke enviously.
"Yes!" Zhu Zhuqing nodded.
"What costs over ten thousand Gold Soul Coins? Let me see!"
Just then, a middle-aged man in simple gray clothes, with neatly trimmed short hair and a full beard, came over pushing his grilled sausage cart.
When he saw the three beauties, Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu, Oscar's large, peach-blossom eyes immediately widened.
He stared at the three girls with an utterly lecherous look, practically drooling.
"Boss Dai, are these three beauties... our new juniors?"
Oscar gave Dai Mubai a knowing look.
With three girls, surely he ought to get one.
He hadn't expected that even he, Oscar, could have such luck with women!
"Move, Little Ao!"
In a very foul mood, Dai Mubai shoved Oscar aside.
Still, although he hadn't gotten Zhu Zhuqing into the school through the back door, they all looked as though they had come to enroll.
So he assumed his role as the school's examiner and released his Martial Soul. The sight of a three-ring Soul Elder frightened all the onlookers into trembling.
"What are you all still crowding around here for? Hurry up and get in line! If you don't want to enroll, get lost!"
"My name is Ning Rongrong. Are you here to enroll too? Do you have more pills like these? Sell me some more."
Ning Rongrong took Zhu Zhuqing by the wrist, intending to line up with her.
But Zhu Zhuqing shook her head and said:
"I only came here to buy things. I'm not going to Shrek Academy. The environment here is so poor, and it doesn't even have a Simulation environment. How much could studying here improve my cultivation speed? Besides..."
As she spoke, she glared at Dai Mubai and Oscar in disgust. Both hurriedly averted their lecherous gazes.
"Hmph! I don't want to be ogled by a bunch of lechers here every day!"
Called a lecher, Oscar guiltily turned his head away, while Dai Mubai's tiger eyes widened. Had he been giving Zhu Zhuqing too much face?
"What are you saying?! I'd advise you not to slander others!"
Zhu Zhuqing couldn't be bothered with him. The men outside were all so disgusting. She wanted to return to Maple Forest Evening and find her landlord brother.
"Stop right there!"
Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing was leaving, Dai Mubai clenched his fists and moved to chase after her and seize her.
For daring to insult a Soul Elder like this, he had every right to seize her and teach her a harsh lesson.
"What? You fancied her, but couldn't win her over, so now you're going to take her by force?" Ning Rongrong blocked Dai Mubai's path, folding her arms and lifting her chin.
"You... get..."
"Mubai, don't get into conflicts with students."
Just as Dai Mubai was about to beat Ning Rongrong up as well,
a languid voice warned him.
It was none other than Li Yusong.
After Ning Rongrong had produced so much money and then said her surname was Ning, he seemed to have guessed something.
If she was from that sect, they couldn't afford to offend her.
Feeling the pressure of a Soul Emperor, Dai Mubai had no choice but to withdraw his Martial Soul and abandon his pursuit of Zhu Zhuqing.
He only warned Ning Rongrong with a resentful look.
Ning Rongrong held her chin high, looking as though she were saying, "Come on, hit me!"
