Chapter 277: Captain, You Smell So Good

"Huo Wu, how do you want to compete in this match?"

Seeing that Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang were at a stalemate, Qin Jian stepped forward and spoke.

Huo Wu looked at him silently, but her words were directed at Huo Wushuang: "Brother, I will help you with what you want to do, but this time I will still give it my all."

Huo Wushuang suddenly looked up: "Sister, you..."

Huo Wu waved her hand, and the four soul rings on her body began to pulse.

"Brother, you've always let me have my way since we were little, and you've been especially good to me... but none of the things you've done were things I liked, so we often argued."

Huo Wu looked ahead, looked at Qin Jian, and smiled: "Do you know? The best thing I learned from Qin Jian is respect, respecting everyone's choices... He has never forced me to do things I don't like; he respects me from the bottom of his heart."

"Whether I'm being overbearing, acting unreasonably, or getting angry for no reason, he never blames me or tells me that I'm wrong..."

Huo Wu ignored the referee, whose expression was becoming increasingly ugly as he waited, and continued to speak to herself: "He just asks me why, why I'm unhappy, why I'm throwing a tantrum, if I'm feeling unwell, or what the reason is... Do you know? Since I was little, you all said I had a bad temper, but no one ever truly asked me why I was like this..."

"So I also got used to just exploding when there was a disagreement... Perhaps this is just a flaw we fire-type Spirit Masters have..."

Huo Wu paused and said: "Enough of that. Just like Bing'er said, there are many things we have to experience ourselves to understand. I hope that one day, Brother, you will also meet that person who makes you understand many things, and not remain limited to your own world and perspective."

On this side, Shui Bing'er stood behind and to the side of Qin Jian, laughing in a low voice: "Huo Wu has changed a lot. Now she has started to think about what she is lacking and what she wants. Perhaps it won't be long before she is willing to return to your side."

Qin Jian twitched the corner of his mouth, but there was clearly no look of triumph; he just said from the heart: "I really hope she is willing... I don't want any of you to leave."

Although one person leaving would not affect the soul rings he had already obtained, whether for his first martial soul or his second martial soul, he had never treated them as mere tools.

Of course, if he stopped loving her, then the soul ring of his second martial soul, the Love Flower, would have problems...

"Pfft, scumbag!"

Xue Wu, Shui Yue'er, Qiu Ruoshui, Gu Qingbo, and Shen Liuyu said in unison, then burst into a fit of silver-bell-like laughter, leaving Qin Jian with black lines all over his forehead, while the group of Single Dogs off the field watched with hearts popping out of their eyes.

"If you keep doing this, I'm not fighting!"

Qin Jian made a move to leave, but was immediately surrounded by the six from Tianshui: "You can't leave, you can't leave, you can't leave! You are our Captain!"

The crowd on the sidelines: "..."

"There really is a show to watch wherever Brother Jian is; he is just too good at attracting girls..."

Oscar hugged Ma Hongjun, looking dejected: "Ever since Brother Jian started acting cool, no one has looked at my handsome face in the entire tournament anymore..."

"It's fine, look at me, I'm just as happy even if no one looks," Ma Hongjun said, patting his belly.

"That's because no one looked at you in the first place!"

Oscar took another Melon Seed Sausage from Flender: "From now on, I must continue to develop my Self-created Soul Skill. Not only the Melon Seed Sausage, but the Melon Seed Sausage must also be launched quickly; business will definitely be good..."

"Are you going to fight or not?!"

Just as the referee reached the limit of his patience and, finding that intimidation was ineffective, finally intended to apply to disqualify both teams, Qin Jian and Huo Wu said loudly at the same time: "We'll fight! Isn't it enough that we're fighting?!"

As a result, when the two heard the other say the exact same thing, they couldn't help but laugh out loud together; there wasn't even a hint of a fighting atmosphere.

"Dean, do you have any lemons for sale?" Ning Rongrong suddenly said.

Flender clutched his forehead abruptly: "Hey! How could I forget that I could sell lemons!"

The Shrek group: "..."

On the stage.

"Alright, Huo Wu, tell me, how should we compete?"

Qin Jian smiled: "This is my first time competing as the Captain of the Tianshui Team; I absolutely cannot lose this match."

Huo Wu rolled her eyes: "Hmph, heartless man, everyone is an ex-girlfriend, why are you favoring Bing'er?"

Qin Jian: "..."

"Let's compete in Ring Fusion again, the Ring Fusion you taught me. In this match, I will use my full strength to see if you are stronger or I am stronger now!"

Before Huo Wu finished speaking, three teammates from Kamikaze Academy and three from Blazing Academy behind her began to gather their own soul power simultaneously, and then one by one, they fused their soul power with Huo Wu's.

If Qin Jian chose to attack at this moment, Blazing Academy would most likely be defeated.

But he just smiled slightly: "Multi-person Ring Fusion? I didn't teach you this; it's a talent that belongs to you."

"Captain, are you not planning to start the Ring Fusion immediately?" Xue Wu asked.

Qin Jian shook his head: "It's fine, I don't have her reservations, so the speed will be much faster."

"What reservations?" Qiu Ruoshui asked curiously.

Shui Bing'er glanced at them with her beautiful eyes and said: "You'll know in a moment."

By the time Huo Wu had already fused the soul rings of two people, Qin Jian finally moved slowly.

He stretched out his two hands and said: "Come on, take turns placing your hands on mine."

The six from Tianshui: "..."

"Bing'er, is this what you meant by 'you'll know in a moment'?" Xue Wu said, crossing her arms.

Shui Bing'er placed her hand in Qin Jian's without hesitation and said: "Fusion between different people requires skin-to-skin contact for the fastest speed. Look at Huo Wu over there; she doesn't want to touch other men, so she's already starting to sweat while fusing the third person."

The others looked up and, sure enough, saw sweat on Huo Wu's forehead; it was clearly becoming strenuous for her.

"Anyway, as long as Sister doesn't mind, I don't care. It's not like we haven't held hands before, we've even hugged!"

Shui Yue'er also placed her hand on Qin Jian's.

"That's true. I remember when we were too excited during our first performance, it seems we all..." Qiu Ruoshui said with a giggle.

Shui Bing'er, of course, showed no signs of resentment; instead, her red lips curled up: "If you all can join in, I would actually be delighted! There are too many little vixens over at Shrek!"

"Wow!"

The others exclaimed in surprise, then cast their green-eyed gazes toward Qin Jian one by one.

"The Captain looks so fragrant; why don't we all take a bite?" Shen Liuyu said, licking her lips.

Even though the Ring Fusion wasn't strenuous, Qin Jian was already covered in sweat: "Stop!"

He glared fiercely at Shui Bing'er: "I'm already overwhelmed as it is! Don't you dare cause me trouble!"

"Captain, you actually called us trouble..."

The next moment, the crowd surged with emotion, the beautiful girls rioted, and they almost caused the three Soul Rings that Qin Jian had managed to achieve Fusion with to explode...
