Douluo Continent: Twin Golden and Silver Dragons Shock Bibi Dong

Ning Rongrong looked at Dugu Yan and Xiao Wu, her eyes gleaming with wisdom:

"The attacks by Sister Yan and Xiao Wu just now have further torn this rift to its maximum."

Now, Tang San has been forced to face reality: Yu Xiaogang's so-called theories are utterly useless to his current combat abilities! Yu Xiaogang's value to him isn't as great as he imagined!

"Based on this harsh reality, as Yu Xiaogang's halo and value in Tang San's heart both collapsed, Tang San's regard for him will inevitably decline precipitously."

Ning Rongrong snapped her fingers, her smile bright and smug:

"That's what you call—winning hearts and minds!"

Xiao Wu was stunned, her bright red eyes filled with confusion, and she scratched her head in bewilderment:

"Wow...so that's how it is? Your thoughts are so complicated and convoluted..."

As Dugu Yan walked to the side, after listening to this logically sound and insightful "psychological warfare" theory that directly attacked the weaknesses of human nature, her expression suddenly became somewhat unnatural.

She frowned slightly, staring at Ning Rongrong suspiciously: "Wait... why does your argument and logic sound so familiar?"

Ning Rongrong chuckled and shrugged confidently, "Of course they sound familiar! Because all these core techniques were taught to me by Brother Xuanhao!"

"Brother Xuanhao once said that in this world, there is no wall that cannot be dug up, and no defense that cannot be broken!"

Ning Rongrong, mimicking Xuan Hao's usual confident and self-assured tone, cleared her throat and said:

"As the saying goes, nothing is difficult if you put your mind to it. But this so-called 'put your mind to it' definitely not the kind of lowly sycophant who only knows how to give and tirelessly try to please others."

"A truly insightful person understands human nature and finds the crucial breakthrough point. As long as you apply your efforts precisely where they are needed, even seemingly unbreakable relationships will become as simple as paper!"

Looking at the brightly lit streets of Tiandou City, Ning Rongrong summarized the essence of Xuan Hao's "scumbag tactics":

"The most important thing in doing things is to find the right direction. If the direction is wrong and the method is wrong, even if you move yourself, it will all be in vain no matter how much you do!"

Upon hearing Ning Rongrong's explanation, Dugu Yan, who was walking beside her, immediately became somewhat unnatural.

She opened her mouth slightly, recalling how Xuan Hao used to often recline on the sofa at home, casually chatting with them about the intricacies of human nature and scheming.

However, back then, Dugu Yan always thought that the bastard was just showing off smugly.

She boasted about how he had set traps step by step, breaking down the defenses of these privileged young women until they were completely devoted to him.

"After all that..."

Dugu Yan's lips twitched slightly, and she muttered in disbelief, "That bastard wasn't showing off his scumbag achievements to us, but was actually teaching us how to deal with people?!"

Ning Rongrong gave her a strange look and sighed helplessly: "Sister Yan Yan, you've been with Brother Xuan Hao for so long, haven't you realized yet? He's the kind of person who never talks nonsense."

"He would never be so bored as to flaunt things that he has already achieved but are ultimately useless."

"As long as he's talking to us in a serious tone, no matter how bizarre, morally questionable, or even if his theories make you so angry you want to punch him, they must have some profound practical application."

Ning Rongrong shrugged: "Actually, the little tricks I used tonight to borrow strength and sow discord are just the most superficial aspects of his theory."

If Xuanhao himself orchestrated this tonight, given his methods, it wouldn't be as simple as just creating a rift between Tang San and Yu Xiaogang.

He could absolutely push the situation to the extreme, making Tang San feel intense resentment and even physical disgust towards Yu Xiaogang!

Na'er, who had been walking quietly beside him, nodded in agreement.

"Rongrong is right."

"My brother is really amazing in this area. Once his super brain starts working on 'playing,' almost no one can escape his grasp."

"Huh? Play?" Xiao Wu looked completely bewildered, her two rabbit ears curling up in confusion. "What do you mean by 'playing'? Does scheming against others count as playing?"

"It's just for fun."

Na'er turned her head and looked at the bewildered Xiao Wu, explaining calmly, "Whether it's manipulating people's hearts, playing with other people's feelings, or manipulating the power of Tiandou City and the power struggles of those big forces, in your eyes, it's all just 'playing'."

"Anyway, he refers to all his methods other than his absolute combat power as 'playing around'."

"Because my brother often said that in the face of overwhelming absolute power, any so-called conspiracy, trickery, or power struggle in this world is just a paper tiger that can be broken at the slightest touch."

We can 'play' with these methods, using them as a pastime when we're bored, but we must never become fundamentally dependent on them.

"However..."

Na'er changed the subject, "In order to prevent others from using these underhanded methods to manipulate us and make us cannon fodder when we travel on the mainland in the future, we must also be proficient in these things."

We learn these things not to scheme against others, but simply for self-preservation.

At this point, Na'er looked at the group, a faint smile playing on her lips:

"However, to be fair, this skill of 'playing' is a rare talent, and not everyone can learn it."

"Among us, Rongrong is the quickest-thinking and most adept at learning. As for Sister Yanyan..."

Na'er glanced at Dugu Yan, whose face was slightly flushed, and mercilessly exposed her true nature:

"Sister Yan Yan is really too insensitive to these subtle schemes and hints."

After all, she has a straightforward temper. When she encounters something or someone she doesn't like, she either starts cursing or throws poison powder at them and takes action. She's not going to bother scheming against others.

"You brat, you dare tease me now, huh!" Dugu Yan feigned anger as she reached out to pinch Na'er's fair cheek.

Seeing this, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but giggle and added casually:

"Actually, this is quite normal. After all, I am a support-type Soul Master from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so my innate combat strength is weaker than yours."

Without these auxiliary tactics, schemes, and leveraging others' strengths to defend myself, wouldn't I be like a fish on a chopping board?

Therefore, being more cautious has naturally become one of the most crucial skills for me to survive and thrive in this Douluo Continent.

Chapter 299 Too Weak in Offense

……

The night breeze dispelled the daytime heat, and the night market in Tiandou City was at its most bustling and vibrant.

"Gurgle..."

As they walked, Xiao Wu suddenly clutched her flat stomach. Her once spirited rabbit ears drooped down, and she mumbled pitifully:

"I was so focused on setting up the stage and going all out that I completely forgot we haven't even had dinner yet. I'm so hungry..."

Upon hearing this, the girls, who had been in a state of excitement because of their group's fierce criticism of Yu Xiaogang, suddenly felt a sense of emptiness.

Tonight's "big show" started way too early. Ning Rongrong, as the main attacker, delivered a high-intensity live performance throughout. Everyone's mind was focused on how to nail Yu Xiaogang to the pillar of shame, and no one had time to even pick up their chopsticks.

Ning Rongrong rubbed her stomach and suggested, "The night market is bustling right now, and there's delicious food everywhere. Why don't we go for a stroll and grab some late-night snacks?"

The girls raised their hands in agreement without hesitation.

Anyway, I'll just go back to the hotel to sleep, and I definitely won't be able to fall asleep if I toss and turn in bed on an empty stomach.

What's more... if Xuan Hao, that unrestrained little pervert, also goes back to the hotel tonight, everyone might be forced to do some physically demanding "nighttime work."

If I don't eat something to replenish my strength quickly, I'm definitely going to suffer a lot later!

After reaching a consensus, the group immediately changed direction and plunged into the brightly lit night market.

With Ning Rongrong, the little rich girl from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, present, everyone naturally wouldn't eat at a roadside stall. Instead, they went straight to the most upscale restaurant in the city center of the night market.

However, as soon as they stepped onto the private seating area on the second floor of the restaurant, the sharp-eyed Xiao Wu immediately stopped, tugged at Ning Rongrong's sleeve, and pointed to a prime spot by the window.

"Hey, look! Isn't that Xuan Hao?"

Following Xiao Wu's finger, everyone saw Xuan Hao sitting there, indulging in the familiar "storm inhalation" mode over a table full of delicacies.

Sitting directly opposite him was none other than Tang Yuehua, the owner of Yuexuan Pavilion, dressed in elegant palace attire, gently picking out fish bones for him.

"Why would he suddenly drag Aunt Yuehua out to eat at the night market so late at night?" Dugu Yan asked in a low voice, somewhat puzzled.

Ning Rongrong's eyes darted around, and in an instant, she connected all the clues in her mind. She lowered her voice and said excitedly, "Could it be... also because of Tang San?!"

"Think about it, Brother Xuanhao personally told us that Tang San is Tang Hao's son! And this Aunt Yuehua is Tang Hao's younger sister, which means she's Tang San's aunt!"

The more Ning Rongrong analyzed it, the more she felt that her thinking matched Xuan Hao's brainwaves:

"Look, just now at Blue Tyrant Academy, we belittled that hypocritical master Yu Xiaogang to the point of being worthless, greatly diminishing his image in Tang San's mind."

If, at this critical juncture, Tang Yuehua, Tang San's aunt who is not only directly related by blood but also has extensive connections in Heaven Dou City and can provide him with substantial help…

"Wouldn't that perfectly fill, or even directly replace, Yu Xiaogang's place in Tang San's heart?!"

"Brother Xuanhao's actions tonight must be part of a grand scheme!"

Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly and asked hesitantly, "Could it be... that you're overthinking it? Maybe he's just hungry and just wanted to have dinner with someone?"

"impossible."

Na'er, who knew Xuan Hao best, gently shook her head. "Sister Yuehua has always preferred quiet and is someone who pays attention to aristocratic manners."

She would never go out late at night, let alone come to a bustling restaurant in the city center.

She only reluctantly accompanied us out for walks before, just to take care of my brother and me.

"Tonight, my brother must have used some underhanded methods to drag her out."

"If nothing unexpected happens, my brother wants to take advantage of this relaxed environment to lower Sister Yuehua's guard first, and then gradually lure her into the trap he has already set up."

Xiao Wu was completely confused and blinked, "So what do we do now? Should we go over and say hello?"

"Of course we have to go!"

Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up. "We just brilliantly launched our attack on Yu Xiaogang. Now, we can take the opportunity to chat and accidentally reveal some of tonight's events to Tang Yuehua. This is the perfect assist for Brother Xuanhao!"

Without hesitation, Ning Rongrong immediately put on a sweet smile and led the way, jogging towards Xuan Hao's table.

Na'er, Dugu Yan, and the others quickly followed.

Xuan Hao, who was engrossed in his meal, keenly sensed the familiar presence of the girls. He put down his chopsticks and turned around with a puzzled look on his face: "Weren't you guys at Blue Tyrant Academy? What are you doing here?"

Good evening, Aunt Yuehua~

Ning Rongrong first greeted Tang Yuehua politely, then sat down next to Xuan Hao without any hesitation. She picked up a pair of spare chopsticks in front of him, picked up a piece of tender braised pork and stuffed it into her mouth. "Don't even mention it, I was so busy cursing that I didn't even eat my fill."

Na'er and the others greeted Tang Yuehua and then naturally sat down around the large table.

Fortunately, Xuanhao's appetite was so terrifying that he chose the largest round table on this floor from the beginning.

Even with the six girls included, it didn't feel crowded at all.

Seeing that another Na'er with a "giant stomach from the abyss" had arrived, Tang Yuehua smiled gently and immediately beckoned to the waiter, who then added a whole table full of hearty dishes.

While waiting for the food, Ning Rongrong ate while gesturing wildly and vividly describing to Xuan Hao their "feats" at Blue Tyrant Academy that evening.
