Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel
Chapter 42 Even rats have skin, but people lack manners.
Chapter 42 Even a rat has skin, but a person lacks manners (Part 2)
Ling Bai, being a transmigrator, knew that Huo Yuhao had broken the rules more than once during his growth. In the original story, he cheated in front of two acquaintances, the sect leader Tang Ya and his roommate Wang Dong. What did it mean that he was so blatantly cheating in front of him this time?
Do you think we're birds of a feather?
Would I automatically protect you?
"I……"
Huo Yuhao's facial muscles were somewhat stiff. Compared to the vicious servants in the White Tiger Duke's mansion in his memory who only knew how to roar and curse, the pressure brought by Ling Bai was undoubtedly as terrifying as a mountain collapsing and a sea devouring. Just sitting there was like a bottomless black well that would swallow you whole, skin and bones.
He only stared into those golden eyes for a second, and felt as if he had been stabbed by a sharp sword. Compared to his usual calm and composed state, Ling Bai was now as sharp as a knife.
"Pooh!"
Wu Feng spat fiercely, her eyes filled with contempt as she looked at Huo Yuhao. Spoiled as she was, she had never liked Huo Yuhao in the first place, and now she looked at him with even more contempt.
Ning Tian remained calm and composed. While Wu Feng could act without restraint, she could not, because her every word and action represented the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, and Huo Yuhao was a disciple of the Tang Sect. The two sects had a ten-thousand-year-old friendship, which required her to maintain a facade of friendship.
"Xiao Yuhao, you..."
Tang Ya panicked. If this matter were to get out, Huo Yuhao's reputation would likely plummet.
Huo Yuhao, enduring the tearing sensation in his spiritual eyes and sea of consciousness, said painfully, "Teacher Xiaoya, I want to help Senior Brother win, and Brother Ling, Xu Sanshi stole your grilled fish, so helping Senior Brother win is also to avenge you!"
He had considered being discovered by Ling Bai before using the mental detection sharing feature, thinking that Ling Bai would tacitly approve of it, because compared to Xu Sanshi, Ling Bai would definitely favor Bei Bei more.
Huo Yuhao racked his brains but couldn't figure out why Ling Bai had stopped him.
The incredibly beautiful sunset painted the sky crimson in the afterglow, and a hint of coldness lingered in Ling Bai's golden eyes as he said:
"Help? As expected of a Chinese-to-Chinese translation that is faithful, expressive, and elegant..."
Ling Bai stared at Huo Yuhao, hoping to see even a trace of remorse in his expression, but unfortunately, all he saw in Huo Yuhao's eyes was persistence and doubt.
"Huo Yuhao, the grudge between me and Xu Sanshi is settled. It's not your place to 'help' me get revenge. Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi are having a fair competition, and it's not up to a third party to break the rules and interfere."
Poor talent is not important, low soul power is not a problem either, these can be made up for by fortuitous encounters. If a person has no shame, then he is truly beyond redemption.
A rat has skin, but a person has no manners.
Huo Yuhao, keep at least one of your abilities or your reputation for yourself.
They looked at each other, only to be filled with disappointment.
Ling Bai glanced one last time at Huo Yuhao, who was clenching his teeth, and Tang Ya, whose face was filled with deep shame, and shook his head, saying:
"Little Heavenly Witch Wind, there's no need to watch any longer, let's go."
"Um."
Ling Bai stood up first, followed closely by Ning Tian and Wu Feng, and the three of them left the Soul Arena together.
Standing on the wide avenue of Shrek Academy, Ling Bai gazed at the night view of Shrek City to the southwest. The lights of this ancient city were reflected in his clear golden eyes, shining as brightly as the stars in the sky.
"Brother Bai, are you angry?"
Ning Tian tugged at Ling Bai's sleeve and asked cautiously.
Before Ling Bai could speak, Wu Feng earnestly advised him, "Little Bai, it's not worth getting angry over trash. In my opinion, you'd be better off going out and getting something good to eat."
Duang!
After a muffled thud, Wu Feng screamed and crouched down, clutching his head.
Ling Bai blew on his fist, turned his head and said, "You're so disrespectful, you even called me 'Little Bai' now. But Wu Feng, you were right for once, Huo Yuhao's little troubles really aren't worth worrying about."
I hardly ever see him while studying in the inner courtyard. You two inevitably run into him on a daily basis, so just treat him like a stranger from now on.
Ning Tian nodded slightly. She had considered whether to take care of Huo Yuhao out of respect for the Tang Clan, but now there was no need for that.
"By the way, Xiao Tian, how's the progress of the task the sect leader assigned you?"
Ling Bai remembered something important.
Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the inherited martial soul of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, is known as the number one auxiliary weapon martial soul in the world, it has no combat power of its own and relies heavily on powerful non-family battle soul masters to protect them.
Is there anywhere in Douluo Continent where it's easier to encounter exceptionally talented Soul Masters than at Shrek Academy?
The answer is no.
Therefore, each generation of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School sends its direct disciples to Shrek Academy, not only to train themselves but also to recruit young geniuses in advance and provide the sect with future protectors.
As the young sect master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Tian naturally took on this arduous task.
When it came to serious matters, Ning Tian immediately put on a serious face and recounted: "Brother Bai, in the past two days I have been asking around about the martial souls and soul power of the students in each class, and I have found that their overall talent is much stronger than that of my mother's generation. Apart from me, there are two geniuses who broke through the level 30 soul power at the age of eleven!"
"Having only been enrolled for two days, I've only managed to recruit one female classmate, Nanmen Yun'er, who has a relatively ordinary background and a Jade Bird martial soul."
"Hmm, have the two Soul Masters started making contact?" Ling Bai asked.
"I'm preparing to make my move. Of the two, Dai Huabin comes from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion of the Star Luo Empire, so there's no way a sect could attract him. As for the other one, Xie Huanyue, a defensive Soul Master with the Pikachu Elephant Martial Soul, I can give it my best try!"
Ling Bai pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Xiao Tian, let me tell you about a few people. They are some of the more talented students I've found out about this year, and they will be your main targets next."
The Three Lives Soul-Suppressing Cauldron (Xiao Xiao), the mischievous elephant Xie Huanyue, the long-haired twins Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo, the fleeting time Zhong Cao Jinxuan, the treasure book Zhou Sichen, the nine-tailed fox Cui Yajie, and the mighty ape Huang Chutian.
Ning Tian silently memorized their names, then suddenly realized that someone he had expected was not on the list, and asked in confusion:
"Brother Bai, there's a genius student named Wang Dong in Class 1 of the freshmen whose martial soul is the Goddess of Light Butterfly. I'm thinking..."
"No, you don't want to!"
Ling Bai instantly extended two fingers, forming an OK sign, and pinched her lips, saying with unprecedented seriousness:
"That guy is a descendant of the Haotian Sect; you must keep your distance from him!"
Tang Shenwang's own daughter!
Huo Yuhao is just lucky to be alive, Ling Bai absolutely cannot let Ning Tian get involved in this mess!
"Uh-huh!"
Ning Tian nodded repeatedly like a chick pecking at rice. Seeing this, Ling Bai decisively let go before Wu Feng could pounce and bite him, and took out two white jade porcelain bottles to hand to Ning Tian.
"Take the Profound Water Pill to recruit geniuses from the outer academy. Give one of them to Xie Huanyue. This kind of freshman with an ordinary family background but extraordinary talent is very suitable for the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"it is good."
Ning Tian immediately agreed. It was just a mere ten thousand gold soul coins for the Xuan Shui Pill; the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School always bought it by the box!
Eat as much as you like! Send as much as you want!
