Quadruple split.

Chapter 2717 Let's make an appointment first

"Mowang!"

The next instant, accompanied by a cry of surprise that grew louder as it approached, Mo Tan subconsciously focused his energy in his dantian, then swiftly reached forward with both hands to scoop up the flustered dog girl and bring her to a steady stop in front of him. He smiled at her and the old man who had rushed over behind them.

"Heh, if you can still laugh, then it's not a big problem."

Slightly out of breath, Jadka leaned on his Ember Staff and said cheerfully, "But what happened just now was really scary. If that had happened outside of Tianzhu Mountain, even if you hadn't died, you would probably have been seriously injured."

Mo Tan shook his head and smiled slightly, "If this were outside Tianzhu Mountain, I wouldn't have been beaten up like this. You all know that I..."

"The dog was injured! Neck! Stomach! Chest! And it was hugged!"

However, Mo Tan's words clearly did not satisfy the dog girl in front of him. Ya Ya interrupted Mo Tan fiercely, gritting her teeth and stomping her foot, saying, "Woof can't let Mo Wang be bullied! Woof will avenge Mo Wang! Woof will fight back! Whoever hits Mo Wang! Woof will beat them up! Beat them to death!"

'Haha, what a passionate person! If I remember correctly, besides YaYa, Brother Mo also has YeGe and XiaoLu by his side. He's certainly got a lot of ladies' luck.'

Because of Xiao's unusual activity at Tianzhu Mountain, the Fan Soul inside also became active. Furthermore, Mo Tan even faintly heard other people's voices—

'If this little brat keeps messing around, will he get chopped into mincemeat?'

This is from Axe Soul.

"Haha, Brother Mo is a gentleman; he would never do something so despicable that he'd be chopped into mincemeat."

This is from Gun Soul.

"That's not necessarily true. As the saying goes, emptiness is form; the more desireless a person is like him, the more lustful they are by nature."

This is the staff of the spirit.

In my opinion, "emptiness is form" is not used in this way.

This is from Daopo.

'Ha ha ha ha. '

This is a killing move.

'As long as he becomes strong enough, he can consume as many women as he wants. The more greedy one is for power, the stronger one becomes. Greed is a good thing, and lust is also a form of greed, which is also a good thing.'

This is from Ji Po.

'No way? '

This is the Sword Soul's reply to the Axe Soul.

Let's all keep quiet...

This is made of black sandalwood.

"Ahem, well, Ya Ya."

After calming down the spirits within [Akatsuki], Mo Tan immediately placed his hands on Ya Ya's shoulders, which were trembling slightly with anger, and said earnestly, "I came to the arena to compete in matches to hone myself, so I often do targeted training for areas I'm not usually good at. Do you understand?"

Perhaps because Mo Tan was holding her shoulders, Ya Ya nodded happily and said, "Woof, I understand!"

"very good."

After confirming that Ya Ya's "woof" referred to himself rather than the additional usage of "no," Mo Tan, who was slightly relieved, immediately pressed on and said seriously, "So, I wasn't actually bullied by anyone. The opponent didn't actually use any underhanded tricks. Plus, the security measures here in the Grand Arena are excellent. This was a match that was entirely beneficial to me. Do you understand?"

Ya Ya thought for a moment and nodded again, saying, "Woof understands!"

"Great."

Mo Tan smiled with relief, patted Ya Ya's head, and said happily, "So even if I'm defeated, Ya Ya, you still..."

"Wang wants to sign up for the competition!"

Yaya closed its eyes happily, wagged its tail, and said cheerfully, "Woof woof to everyone who bullies Mowang!"

Mo Tan: "..."

Jadka, standing next to her, shrugged and said with a wry smile, "It seems that your recent dominance has made her a little too worried, and she's not listening to any of my advice anymore."

Mo Tan scratched his head awkwardly, continuing to rub the girl in front of him who seemed to be enjoying herself, while explaining, "I really wasn't bullied, Ya Ya. I don't object if you want to play around or train a little, but there's really no need for a reason like getting revenge for me. I've gained quite a lot from these few matches."

Ya Ya affectionately rubbed its nose against Mo Tan's palm and said in a serious tone, "If Mo Tan can't beat me, let's try a little harder! Let's bark and bark again and see if we can win!"

"Don't do anything reckless, even in Tianzhu Mountain."

Knowing full well that Ya Ya's so-called "dog on dog" was mostly a combination of active [Berserk Mode] and [Dog Language Magic - Dog Claws], a method that would severely strain the body, Mo Tan immediately became serious and said solemnly, "Listen carefully, Ya Ya, I really was just training myself. Although I did lose the match just now, I could easily have won if I wanted to, so you don't need to..."

"Oh wow! I knew it, buddy, you really were holding back just now!"

Just then, another pleasant voice came from not far away. Mo Tan turned his head and saw that it was none other than the black-haired, red-eyed horse girl nicknamed "Red Trace" who had just defeated him.

So, embarrassed by his earlier 'arrogance,' Mo Tan touched the tip of his nose and said with a wry smile to the horse girl who strode quickly towards him, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything by it, it's just..."

"My name is He, He Feijia."

The dashing, long-legged horsewoman smiled and extended her right hand to Mo Tan, laughing heartily, "You can call me Xiao He."

"Uh, hello, I'm Mo."

Mo Tan shook hands briefly with the other person, then gave a slightly awkward smile and said, "Sorry, I was actually just now..."

"No need to say so much, Brother Mo."

He grinned and said with a smile, "I've watched your previous matches. To be honest, if you choose to fight me with a longsword or that heavy polearm, I'm really not confident I can beat you. No, I should say I'm afraid it would be very difficult for me to beat you."

Mo Tan hadn't expected that the girl in front of him had actually watched his previous matches. Upon hearing this, he immediately said, "Let me make it clear beforehand, I absolutely did not mean to look down on you or hold back, Miss He."

"I know, I know, my hearing is very good, I heard you say it was to train yourself~"

He immediately nodded to indicate that she understood, then changed the subject, raising her eyebrows slightly, and said, "But even so, don't you think it's unfair to a fan like me who has been looking forward to a good fight with you, but ended up not getting any satisfaction at all?"

"Don't talk nonsense!"

Having finally broken free from Mo Tan's grasp, Ya Ya immediately darted in front of Ma Niang, baring its teeth and saying, "Woof bullied Mo Woof! Woof will get revenge! You dare to fight me!"

Xiao He blinked, and the ears on the top of her head twitched involuntarily: "Huh? Shall we hit her?"

"Don't hit me!"

While pulling Ya Ya back to her side and calming the latter, who was clearly in a state of serious resentment, Mo Tan looked at the female warrior monk in front of her with some confusion: "Fans?"

"I learned that from host Noyce." Xiao He chuckled and said happily, "I thought you were so cool and handsome when I saw you fighting, so I've always wanted to have a match with you. I guess that's what you call a fan, right?"

Mo Tan smiled awkwardly. He felt that this shouldn't be called being a fan, but faced with Xiao He's eager eyes, he really didn't know what to say for a moment.

"Let's try again."

Seeing that Mo Tan remained silent, Ma Niang, with her sunny and cheerful personality, smiled and suggested, "Although I don't think you offended me just now, if you feel a little embarrassed, why don't you fight me again? It's easy to arrange a match between players of the same level."

Mo Tan, who wasn't opposed to fighting the horse girl in front of him again, hesitated for a moment, then noticed his own dog girl behind him, who was still full of aggression, and made up his mind, nodding and saying, "Alright, I have no objection."

"Then it's settled."

The girl who called herself Xiao He clapped her hands happily, then reached out to grab Mo Tan's wrist: "Then let's..."

"Ouch!"

Just before she could touch Mo Tan, Ya Ya suddenly poked its head out from under the latter's arm, bared its teeth, and howled at Xiao He: "Don't touch me, woof!"

"Haha, okay, okay, if you don't want me to touch you, I won't~"

Xiao He smiled, readily withdrew her arm, and said to Mo Tan with a gentle smile, "Then let's go and challenge each other now?"

"Well, let's wait a little while."

Mo Tan gently shook his head and said in a calm tone, "I've learned a lot from that battle. I plan to take a moment to reflect, so let's postpone it a bit."

"I don't care."

Xiao He nodded, then asked somewhat nervously, "But you're not thinking of running away, are you?"

"Will not."

Mo Tan, who genuinely intended to test his thinking and then fight the same opponent again, said very sincerely, "I also want to fight you again."

"Well."

Ma Niang, her face slightly flushed, pursed her lips and nodded vigorously, saying, "Then it's settled. I'll tell you my rest room number later. Just come find me when you're ready. I plan to stay at the Grand Arena for the time being."

Mo Tan nodded readily: "Okay, I'll come and call you when I'm ready."

"Ah, right."

Xiao He blinked, then suddenly said very seriously, "Next time we fight, you have to go all out. That wasn't your preferred weapon, was it? When we challenge you to another match, you have to be as amazing as you were when you were on a winning streak."

Mo Tan was taken aback for a moment, then shook his head after a brief pause: "I can't guarantee that."

"What do you mean?"

Xiao He's eyes widened, and she said with dissatisfaction, "But if you don't fight properly like you did before, there's no point in challenging me again. You were no match for me when you used that strange weapon! You were too weak!"

'I can't pretend I didn't hear that...'

The fan spirit murmured these words in Mo Tan's mind.

For now, just pretend you didn't hear that.

Mo Tan replied with a wry smile, then turned to the horse-woman in front of him, who looked troubled, and said seriously, "Don't worry, I should become a little stronger after I'm ready."

Xiao He pouted and muttered, "How strong can it be?"

"I will win."

Mo Tan stared intently at Xiao He and said seriously, "Next time we fight, I promise I'll win no matter what weapon I use."

Upon hearing this, Xiao He's eyes immediately lit up, and she stared intently at Mo Tan: "Are you sure?"

Mo Tan smiled slightly and said decisively, "I'm sure."

"What if you still can't beat me even with that weird stuff?"

Xiao He suddenly took a step forward and asked, "Will you still persevere to the end?"

"If I find that I really can't defeat you with the weapon I just used..."

Mo Tan weighed the [Dawn Seven Star Fan] in his hand and promised, "Then I will switch to a more suitable weapon (Fan Soul: 'This is really sad~') to defeat you."

"Okay, it's a deal then! I'll go get myself ready now and wait for you to find me!"

Xiao He immediately cheered and then ran away like a raging hurricane, even blowing away an unlucky goblin mage in the process.

"Phew, thankfully I already have an idea."

Mo Tan rubbed his temples, then turned to Ya Ya and Jadka with a wry smile, "Anyway, I plan to go back and calm down a bit. Oh, and by the way, don't tell Ye about what happened earlier..."

"Don't talk to me like that."

Just then, a melodious voice, but with a hint of obvious dissatisfaction, suddenly rang out not far away. Mo Tan turned his head and saw that Ji Xiaoge and Wang Badan were less than two meters away from him. The former was holding a mechanical device that was spinning around, which looked like some kind of engineering tool used to conceal one's presence.

"Night... night song."

Even with Mo Tan's current composure, her heart skipped a beat under Ji Xiaoge's intense gaze. She forced a smile and asked, "Why did you come over here?"

"That's because my older sister hasn't seen you much lately and misses you terribly."

The turtle lying at Ji Xiaoge's feet sneered, relentlessly fanning the flames: "So, the first thing you see when you get here is someone cheating on you, hohohoho, big brother, you've finally revealed your true colors... Ugh!?"

boom! ! !
With a muffled thud, Wang Badan, who had been stuffed with a piece of boiled earth by Ji Xiaoge halfway through his sentence, exhaled two black smoke rings and lay motionless on the ground, powerless.

The next moment, Ji Xiaoge, who knew very well that Mo Tan was only being bothered by that horse girl and hadn't actively flirted with her, bumped her head into the former's chin and said angrily, "You little bastard, you don't think before you speak, it's so infuriating!"

Are you sure you're angry at Wang Ba'dan?

Mo Tan rubbed the other person's forehead, which was slightly red from bumping his chin, and said with a wry smile, "Why do I feel like this is taking out your anger on someone else?"

"Hey, let me ask you this: would you rather I take my anger out on that little bastard, or on you, Mr. Mo?"

"Uh……"

"What's the answer?"

"Audacious and domineering."

"Hmm~"
