Chapter 46: The gap between people is even greater than that between dogs, making one doubt life
Oscar was so envious he went numb.
Ning Rongrong, who was proud and aloof before him, acted so obediently before Luo Ye.
If he weren't confident about his good looks, Oscar would suspect he'd turned as ugly as Ma Hongjun.
He hesitated for a long time, yet still didn't want to just give up on Ning Rongrong.
After all, besides being extremely beautiful, Ning Rongrong still had the status of the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
As for Oscar, he had dated many girlfriends before, but none could compare to Ning Rongrong.
To be precise, his ex-girlfriends weren't even worthy to hold Ning Rongrong's shoes.
Faced with Oscar's question, Luo Ye pretended to be clueless.
"What do you mean?"
Oscar glanced at Ning Rongrong on the soul battle platform and gritted his teeth.
"Just tell me how you managed to make someone act so obedient in front of you."
Luo Ye looked as if he suddenly understood, but then immediately spread his hands.
"I didn't do anything, and I hadn't even seen her before coming to Shilaike Academy; I don't know why she's like this."
Oscar's breath caught as he sized up Luo Ye, seeing that his expression was completely genuine.
So, Ning Rongrong didn't take a liking to me; instead, she instantly took a liking to Luo Ye, who already had Zhu Zhuqing by his side?
How could this be?
Could it be that Ning Rongrong, the young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, is ready to throw away her dignity and compete with Zhu Zhuqing for a man?
He would rather abandon a genius like Oscar, who possesses innate full soul power, and go after Luo Ye?
Is that reasonable?
Oscar silently walked to a corner and began to doubt life.
Luo Ye didn't even glance at him, focusing intently on appreciating the soul battle between Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, and their opponent.
Currently, only he and Dai Mubai are Soul Elders at Shilaike; he can't team up with Dai Mubai, and according to the rules of the Grand Soul Battle Arena, only one one-on-one match per day is allowed, so he naturally has free time now.
For Luo Ye, participating in soul battles is essentially meaningless.
Even with his mental strength, it's impossible to hone combat ability in soul battles.
But once Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong's soul power reach rank thirty, he probably won't stay so idle.
Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong will surely ask to team up with him, and even Xiao Wu won't miss this chance.
After all, only by getting close to Luo Ye first will it seem reasonable to later leave Shilaike together with him.
Luo Ye, on the other hand, is eagerly waiting to see how Tang San will react when Xiao Wu proposes forming a two-person team with him.
After the soul battles of the Shilaike group ended, they naturally wouldn't stay any longer at the Grand Soul Battle Arena.
However, when leaving, Tang San looked around and didn't see Flandre, so he asked.
"Where is Dean Flandre? Isn't he coming back to the academy with us?"
Dai Mubai shrugged, acting as if it were nothing unusual.
"Don't worry about the dean; he's always been elusive."
Ma Hongjun's eyes flickered, and he went along with it.
"The dean just told me to go to his shop for a while and not return yet; you go ahead."
Hearing that, Dai Mubai tugged at the corner of his mouth and couldn't help teasing.
"Then we'll head back first; you take it easy."
Ma Hongjun snorted, glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, and deliberately asked.
"Boss Dai, are you going or not?"
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, really wanting to slap that clueless guy, but he endured it and let out a cold snort in annoyance.
"I'm not interested; you go yourself."
Ma Hongjun curled his lips, thinking everyone knows Boss Dai only goes to high-end places, so of course he looks down on the low-end brothels.
Now he's pretending to be pure—who doesn't know who?
Watching Ma Hongjun happily walk away, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong all showed a hint of disdain in their eyes.
If it weren't something they were used to, how could they possibly say it so shamelessly in front of so many people?
Moreover, the most important thing is Luo Ye's reminder in the diary.
They also clearly realized that the money Flandre earned by taking Ma Hongjun to the brothel for leisure came entirely from their soul battles.
Just thinking about it makes them feel nauseous; they wish they could grab a bucket and flee Shilaike Academy right now.
Sensing their emotional shift, Dai Mubai gave a dry cough and explained.
"Fatty's martial soul inherently has a flaw; if he can't vent the evil fire, it will lightly affect his cultivation, and severely could cause him to go berserk."
"But you don't need to worry; Fatty won't force anyone, and the place he goes to is the brothel, entirely a consensual matter."
"Besides, I'm fundamentally different from Fatty."
Hearing that, Luo Ye snorted with laughter.
"Ah, yes, yes, there is a difference: he goes to that low-end brothel, while you directly take the twins to the Rose Hotel."
Upon hearing this, everyone stopped hiding their strange looks at Dai Mubai, especially Zhu Zhuqing, who stepped back behind Luo Ye.
Ning Rongrong, seeing this, did the same, seemingly afraid of being stared at by Dai Mubai and wanting to stay away from him, likewise hiding behind Luo Ye.
Xiao Wu looked left and right; she also wanted to do that, but she isn't yet familiar enough with Luo Ye, so if she wanted to hide, she could only stay beside Tang San.
However, as she gradually came to believe Tang San was an extraterrestrial demon who would scheme against her and even kill the Great Bright and Second Bright, if she could choose, Xiao Wu would absolutely not want to remain close to Tang San.
"Are your half-step retreats serious? Such a small motion causes such great harm!"
Dai Mubai felt as if several arrows had pierced his heart, sensing Luo Ye's mocking gaze and the disgust and contempt from Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong; he felt a surge of blood rush to his head, his face instantly turning red to purple.
"You really think I'm scared of you?!"
Dai Mubai panted heavily, glaring fiercely at Luo Ye, his soul power surging, appearing ready to burst out and fight him.
Seeing this, Tang San and Oscar beside him quickly stepped in between, soothing Dai Mubai's emotions.
"Don't get agitated, Luo Ye didn't mean that either, and we're all classmates, let's just leave it at that."
Dai Mubai really wanted to fight Luo Ye, but recalling his previous encounter at the Rose Hotel and the scene just now where he instantly killed his opponent, he could only force himself to endure.
"All right, Xiao San, I'll give you face."
Dai Mubai said that, then turned and left; Tang San gave Luo Ye a bitter smile and said.
"I'll go check on his condition, Xiao Wu; why don't you and Luo Ye's group head back to the academy first."
