Peerless: Tang San, this time Huo Yuhao is the attacker.

Chapter 130 Wang Dong: I will launch the fiercest attack! Suppress Xiao Xiao!

Upon hearing these words, Wang Dong visibly paused for a moment.

Recalling the information she had subtly obtained in the room that day that Huo Yuhao had feelings for Ling Luochen, Wang Dong's mood couldn't help but sink.

Ning Tian noticed this obvious change and subconsciously began to analyze it.

Knowing that Wang Dong likes Huo Yuhao, his first reaction upon hearing that his crush likes another person of the opposite sex should be nervousness.

But Wang Dong wasn't nervous; instead, she seemed disappointed, which meant she must have learned something.

Based on the protagonist of her question, Ning Tian was almost certain that something had definitely happened between Huo Yuhao and Ling Luochen, and that Wang Dong had learned about it from Huo Yuhao.

It's likely that Huo Yuhao himself admitted that he had feelings for Ling Luochen, or even liked her.

Upon realizing this, Ning Tian frowned slightly. If that were the case, it would indeed be a difficult situation.

Although it felt a bit tricky, Ning Tian did not have the thought of giving up.

Everything is earned through one's own efforts. She cannot give up on Huo Yuhao, such a top-tier treasure, just because of this one obstacle.

Extreme Ice, twin martial souls, each of which alone could stand at the pinnacle of soul masters, let alone Huo Yuhao who possesses both.

With such a powerful figure backing her, she could turn the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School into her own personal fiefdom, without having to consider the opinions of the Elders' Hall and the Hall of Offerings.

No one can hinder her power; this is the absolute authority that comes with great strength.

"How would I know what Yuhao is thinking? Besides, Yuhao, like us, hasn't known Senior Ling for very long. He wouldn't have such thoughts."

Hearing Wang Dong's insincere reply, Ning Tian smiled faintly, not exposing him, but continuing to guide him: "That's not necessarily true. Although we've known each other for the same amount of time, Yuhao and Senior Sister Ling have had far more contact than any of us."

Don't you think their behavior is very intimate? It's both on and off stage; their relationship is clearly not ordinary.

Moreover, Yuhao and Senior Ling both happen to possess ice-attribute martial souls, making them a perfect match—a truly handsome couple.

"No way!" Wang Dong retorted loudly, feeling uncomfortable.

Meeting Ning Tian's astonished gaze, Wang Dong realized that his tone had been too agitated, and quickly tried to make amends, pretending not to care, saying, "What I mean is, there are other reasons why they behave this way."

The purpose of holding hands on the Soul Arena is to facilitate attribute amplification. Soul power connection requires physical contact. Think about it, isn't holding hands simpler and more effective than channeling energy, pressing your back against someone's, or hugging someone?

As for what constitutes a good match, it's too early to say. We're still young, just over twelve years old, while Senior Ling is almost twenty.

Besides, Senior Ling is not far from graduating, why would she be thinking about this?

Wang Dong spoke logically and persuasively, as if he were trying to convince Ning Tian, ​​and also as if he were trying to convince himself.

"Really?" Ning Tian concealed the feigned surprise in his eyes and nodded thoughtfully. "Maybe I'm overthinking it. After all, there is indeed a significant age difference between Senior Ling and Yuhao."

"That's right! Senior Ling might already have someone she likes, we just don't know it yet."

After some discussion, Wang Dong finally agreed with Ning Tian's point of view from the bottom of his heart.

Ning Tian's lips curled up slightly. Although she didn't get a definite answer from Wang Dong, the little girl disguised as a boy, Xiao Hudie, had already given the answer with her body.

Sometimes, facial expressions, body language, and subconscious reactions are far more truthful than words.

Ning Tian didn't continue the topic of Ling Luochen. Leaning against the balcony railing, he casually sighed, "It's indeed unlikely that Senior Sister Ling will succeed, but Yuhao's excellence is undeniable. With his talent, he will definitely reach an unparalleled height in the future."

There will definitely be many girls who like him. With Yuhao's charm, maybe before he even enters the inner courtyard, someone will confess to him and they'll end up together.

"Him?" Wang Dong shook his head with a smile, his expression becoming relaxed. "With Yuhao's dedication to cultivation, he doesn't even have free time on his days off. He'll probably still be single when he graduates."

In other words, no soul tool courses were scheduled during the competition period; otherwise, apart from cultivation, we wouldn't have even seen him.

I really don't know where those girls are going to find opportunities to get close to him.

"That's hard to say. There's a girl who's already very close to Yuhao, and we even know her."

The words that reached her ears gradually erased Wang Dong's relaxed expression, replaced by a faint worry. Although she guessed Ning Tian's implication, she still asked, "Who is it?"

Ning Tian looked Wang Dong up and down with some surprise, and said with a strange expression, "Wang Dong, are you kidding me? Don't you know who I am?"

Who else, besides Xiao Xiao, is the girl closest to Yuhao here?

The three of you are always together, so don't tell me you can't see that Xiao Xiao has a special feeling for Yu Hao.

You should be very familiar with the way she looks at Yuhao, right? With your appearance, you must have seen many girls your age giving you that kind of affectionate look since you were little, right?

"You've been at Shrek Academy for over a year, and you haven't noticed anything at all? You're really oblivious."

Ning Tian clicked his tongue, and seeing Wang Dong suddenly fall silent, a gleam of success shone in his eyes.

Whether Wang Dong genuinely didn't know or deliberately avoided thinking about it before is no longer important.

Now that she has made it public that Xiao Xiao likes Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong has no choice but to face the truth, no matter how unwilling he is.

Wang Dong's feelings must have been far more complex than hers, knowing that her best friend had fallen for her sweetheart.

Although doing this would torment Wang Dong, Ning Tian had no choice. There was only one Yuhao, and to gain him, one had to give up some things.

The sooner she resolves these issues, the sooner Wang Dong's suffering will disappear, right?

Wang Dong undoubtedly suffered during this process, but when she stopped liking Yuhao, everything was over, wasn't it?

As for morality, let's put that aside for now.

Ning Tian only believes in what she has in her hands. She would never do something as foolish as suffering for the sake of saving face. Great people don't concern themselves with trifles.

"Yes, is that so—" Wang Dong's voice was a little dry, and there was a sense of difficulty in his speech.

Did she know that Xiao Xiao liked Huo Yuhao? Of course she knew!

But what good would knowing do? She tried to find a solution, but after thinking it over, she could only come up with two options.

The first path she faced was to directly reveal her identity, assert her dominance, and compete head-on with Xiao Xiao.

The second option is to reduce the opportunities for Yuhao and Xiaoxiao to interact, allowing Xiaoxiao's feelings for Yuhao to gradually fade, and also preventing Yuhao from developing feelings for Xiaoxiao.

Wang Dong wouldn't dare to say the former, since she and Yuhao had only known each other for a little over a year, which is definitely not a long time for a relationship.

In other words, she doesn't have any core competitiveness, but she's not entirely without it either. Her Martial Soul Fusion Skill allows her to legitimately stay with Yuhao for extended periods of time.

But that's her only advantage.

The second option, reducing contact between Xiao Xiao and Yu Hao, was something Wang Dong considered, but ultimately concluded that it was simply impossible!

Not to mention that these reserve teams will be training together frequently in the future, there is no way to resolve this issue.

She couldn't stop the two of them from studying soul tools together in the Soul Guidance Department.

Wang Dong didn't know what the learning process for soul tools was like, but she knew that Xiao Xiao and Yu Hao always came back together.

When she and Yuhao cultivated together, it was truly just simple meditation. Time passed in the blink of an eye, and they didn't exchange a single word.

Yuhao and Xiaoxiao attend classes together, so discussions are inevitable. They discover and solve problems together, and it's hard to imagine how close they'll become in the process.

By that calculation, the quality of her relationship with Yuhao is not as good as Xiaoxiao's!

She had already deliberately chosen not to think about these things, but Ning Tian's words were like a cold, sharp blade, forcibly tearing apart the illusion she had built.

Wang Dong closed his eyes, his pinkish-blue eyes beneath his eyelids filled with pain.

"Wang Dong, what's wrong? You seem to be feeling unwell."

Ning Tian noticed the change in Wang Dong's expression, silently apologized in his heart, and continued to carry out the plan with concern.

"No, it's nothing." Wang Dong opened his eyes, forced a smile, and replied.

"I wonder how long it will take for them to get together. It shouldn't be too long, what do you think, Wang Dong?"

"How could that be? Ning Tian, ​​we're still students. We should focus on cultivation first. We can talk about romance later, right?"

Wang Dong expressed her opinion, but she didn't seem very confident when she said it.

"Wang Dong, what kind of argument is that? We're not monks in a temple. Besides, these things don't conflict with one's own cultivation."

Ning Tian chuckled, his words carrying a hint of persuasion.

"Finding your other half, encouraging each other, making progress together, and supporting each other on the path of becoming a Soul Master—isn't that a wonderful story?"

Even among second-year and first-year students, there are still a considerable number of couples, not many of them.

In our Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, quite a few couples get engaged at fourteen or fifteen or sixteen; that's pretty normal, isn't it?

Wang Dong fell silent once again. Even if she wanted to refute, she couldn't find a point to make. Besides, she didn't think Ning Tian was wrong in the first place.

Ning Tian grew increasingly satisfied as he noticed Wang Dong's silences growing longer each time.

Her core plan was simply to use one enemy to devour another.

This could involve forcing Wang Dong to confront the fact that Xiao Xiao likes Huo Yuhao, or unintentionally letting Xiao Xiao learn that Wang Dong is a woman and that she likes Huo Yuhao.

Ultimately, it will be advantageous for her no matter which one is eliminated, because among these people, her relationship with Huo Yuhao is the shallowest.

As Ning Tian thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a little depressed. Why did this feeling of happiness make her so unhappy?

Ning Tian had never been at such a disadvantage before, being the one that no one paid attention to in a group of people.

Getting back to the point, she really hoped Wang Dong would back down, since the existence of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill meant their relationship wouldn't be bad.

If Wang Dong's true identity as a woman is revealed, the relationship will likely progress explosively.

It's definitely impossible to achieve this in a short time; it will inevitably become a protracted battle.

She had already figured out how to let Xiao Xiao know the secret of the Goddess of Light Butterfly. When Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao met, they would definitely fight to the death.

She, who had been secretly observing from the shadows, deepened her feelings for Huo Yuhao during their fight, ultimately becoming the winner.

Will she succeed? Absolutely! She's never failed before!

"Wang Dong, you seem a bit strange today, completely different from usual. Is something bothering you?"

Wang Dong let out a long breath, chuckled, and shook his head. "What worries could I possibly have? I just think what you said makes a lot of sense, and I'm wondering when I can find the right person like them."

Ning Tian, ​​thank you for your concern, but I can't talk about my troubles.

Wang Dong thought to herself that she could not tell Ning Tian that she was a girl, much less say that "she and Xiao Xiao both like Yu Hao".

"With your qualities, that day won't be long, and there will definitely be a girl who likes you as much as Xiao Xiao likes Yu Hao."

Ning Tianzhen is a thoughtful and kind person.

Wang Dong was just thinking to himself after hearing the first half of the sentence when he was stabbed in the back by the part about Xiao Xiao liking Yu Hao.

Wang Dong felt somewhat helpless. Ning Tian had been saying that Xiao Xiao liked Yu Hao for so long that she was numb to it.

Sigh, who told her to present herself as a boy now, and with her two best friends so close together, even if you put yourself in Ning Tian's shoes, you'd still be gossiping.

Wang Dong's eyes gradually sharpened. Thanks to Ning Tian's unintentional words, she finally understood.

That previous act of escaping reality and acting like a weakling was useless. She was such a fool, trying to avoid the problem instead of solving it.

At this moment, everything is still uncertain, and the outcome is unknown.

Xiao Xiao and Yu Hao haven't yet borne the fruit that frightens her; she should strive to catch up!

Fortunately, Ning Tian reminded her in time. If she had only realized this when Xiao Xiao and Yu Hao had taken their relationship to the next level, she would have truly regretted it.

"Ning Tian, ​​have you thought about what kind of person your future partner would be?"

As Wang Dong's voice fell, Ning Tian was taken aback. She sensed the change in Wang Dong's emotions; his previous dejection vanished, replaced by a sharp and assertive demeanor.

So, a choice has been made?

Ning Tian smiled; she had achieved her goal.

She envisioned two possible outcomes: one, Wang Dongdao's heart would break and he would give up on Huo Yuhao; and two, naturally, the opposite of the first.

As expected, Wang Dong didn't choose the first option; clearly, she was going to confront Xiao Xiao's existence directly.

The plan succeeded.

Ning Tian shook her head with a wry smile; her plan hadn't originally included the option of failure.

Whether Wang Dong withdraws or competes with Xiao Xiao, it's good news for her, a small, inconspicuous person on the fringes.

However, she preferred that Wang Dong rouse his fighting spirit and compete with Xiao Xiao.

This way, she will have more opportunities to get to know Huo Yuhao.

After all, if Wang Dong were to withdraw directly, allowing Xiao Xiao to stay with Huo Yuhao without any worries, that would be the real trouble for her.

"My future partner? He will definitely be an extremely powerful Soul Master, possessing strength that can crush the world."

You will definitely find him.

"I think so too."
