Chapter 41: Watching the Show
Seeing Bai Yu still acting playful despite his injuries, Zhu Zhuqing's expression soured. She ran forward, no longer bothering with him.
Bai Yu smacked his lips, thinking to himself that the Little Wildcat had quite a temper, spoiled! Absolutely spoiled!
The group arrived at the Great Spirit Arena. Despite the moon being high in the sky, the Great Spirit Arena was still bustling with people.
"Welcome, Your Excellency Hong Ming, to the Great Spirit Arena. How may I assist you?"
A waiter walked up to Bai Yu and his group, bowing and greeting Bai Yu.
"Take us to the lounge area. Are there still empty rooms? We'll be staying here for a few days."
Bai Yu nodded at the waiter and made his request.
"Yes, please follow me."
The waiter turned and led the group upstairs.
Ma Hongjun's eyes showed envy as he said, "When can I be like Bai Ge, just walk in, wave my hand, and have someone come serve me? That would be awesome!"
Dai Mubai glanced at Ma Hongjun. Today, as soon as he heard Bai Yu's name, he felt a bit heavy on his head, as if he was wearing something.
"You still want to be served? You're dreaming. Don't even think about it in the future!"
The group followed the waiter to the lounge area. Bai Yu said to the others, "It's getting late. Choose your rooms. Oh, and call your healing Spirit Master over; I'm a bit injured."
The waiter responded and withdrew, and everyone began to choose their rooms.
After the healing Spirit Master treated Bai Yu's injuries, Ah Yin emerged from the spirit tool, manifesting as a human-shaped phantom.
"Bai Yu, didn't you say you'd run? Why did you fight to a mutual defeat? You lied to them, saying your injuries weren't serious, but your internal organs are clearly damaged. And Brother Hao, he..."
Bai Yu waved his hand, looking at Ah Yin with a smile on his face, and said, "No choice. Your deceased ex is eyeing my cultivation technique. If I don't fight him to let him know my strength isn't weak, he'll be endless afterwards!"
"If I found someone to kill him, given the special nature of your cheap son, some dirty entity might pull Tang Chen out to be his protector."
Watching Ah Yin's expression change drastically, Bai Yu continued, "My current strength isn't enough; I can't provoke a Limit Douluo. So I can only bite the bullet and fight."
"However, even without the cultivation technique issue, as long as I appear by Tang San's side, with my abnormally high strength, he would sooner or later make a move to test me, and a fight would still happen."
Ah Yin's expression was unclear, and she said softly, "So you planned all this? But aren't you afraid of misjudging and dying at Brother Hao's hands?"
Bai Yu licked his lips, a smile playing on his mouth as he looked at Ah Yin.
"Are you worried about me? Or are you worried about the rat? Didn't I tell you on the way here that I'm a Divinity reborn? Just a Super Douluo with injuries, I'm very stable!"
Upon hearing Bai Yu's teasing, Ah Yin retreated into the spirit tool, annoyed, and said, "Go to hell, all of you are bad news!"
Bai Yu laughed heartily, which annoyed Ah Yin even more. She extended a leaf, ready to smack him, but then remembered he was seriously injured and angrily slapped the bed instead.
The next day, after breakfast, everyone sat in the lounge's tea room, chatting.
"Dean, the academy has already collapsed. Bai Ge only gave me money to compensate the villagers; there's nothing for rebuilding the academy. Where do we go next?"
Oscar immediately dug into Flender's heart. Flender smacked his lips with a troubled expression and looked at Bai Yu.
"Bai Xiaozi, what do you think?"
Bai Yu almost choked. He shrugged and said to Flender, "Come on, those few houses at the academy were rented. I've already compensated the villagers. Why don't you wait until they're rebuilt and then rent them again? You don't expect me to build an academy for you, do you?"
Flender was a bit embarrassed, speechless. Even though he was always looking for advantages, building an academy was a bit too much. If it was really built, would he still be the dean?
Liu Erlong was watching Yu Xiaogang. Hearing the conversation, her eyes lit up.
"Why don't you all come to my place? To my Blue Tyrant Academy, it's in Heaven Dou City. I'll give the academy to you then!"
Just as Flender's face showed joy, Yu Xiaogang jumped up, his zombie-like face trembling slightly, and vehemently objected.
"No, absolutely not! I don't agree!"
"Bang! Why? Do you really not want to see me, so much that you have to stay away from me?"
Liu Erlong looked at the agitated Yu Xiaogang, also enraged. She stood up, slapped the table, and questioned Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang was speechless from her questioning and could only say hoarsely, "It's just not going to happen!"
Flames of anger burned in Liu Erlong's eyes. She walked to Yu Xiaogang, grabbed his collar, and roared, "Do you not want to see me, or do you not want to lose face? Is your face really that important? More important than our feelings?"
Yu Xiaogang's face turned red. He hadn't expected Liu Erlong to question him like this in front of everyone. He could only shake off Liu Erlong's hand, angrily muttering, and left with a flick of his sleeve.
"Unreasonable!"
After roaring, Liu Erlong also regretted it. Her anger had gotten the better of her, and she had directly questioned her beloved Gang Zi.
The Shrek group silently watched the whole drama unfold, their eyes meeting, speaking volumes without words!
Looking at Gang Zi's retreating back, a glimmer of tears flashed in Liu Erlong's eyes. Flender walked over helplessly and comforted Liu Erlong:
"Third Sister, are you alright? Don't worry about it. I agree to what you said. I'll go talk to Xiaogang later, and he'll come with us."
Liu Erlong wiped her eyes and turned to say, "I'm fine, Boss Flender. I'm going back to my room first."
After watching the drama, Bai Yu walked over to Flender with a smile in his eyes and patted his shoulder.
"Simp, you have nothing, Dean."
Ignoring Flender's bewildered expression, he turned to Zhu Zhuqing and said, "You come with me!"
Dai Mubai flinched, looking at Bai Yu and Zhu Zhuqing. What was happening? Was he already cuckolded? He quickly asked, "Bai Ge, where are you two going? Do you need my help?"
Bai Yu waved his hand, not looking at Dai Mubai.
"No need. Yesterday, Little Wildcat decided to cultivate with me. I'm taking her to the room to teach her some things. Alright, come with me."
Huh? Looking at Zhu Zhuqing following behind Bai Yu, Dai Mubai's eyes widened. What to do? Should he warn Zhu Zhuqing directly? Would Bai Yu beat him to death?
Ning Rongrong's expression was excited; he was already calling her 'Little Cat.' She then looked at Dai Mubai, a mocking smile on her lips.
Oscar looked at Zhu Zhuqing's back, filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred, muttering to himself.
"It's such a shame. Why aren't I a big-breasted woman? Such a good thing, allowing Bai Ge, a support system, to fight a Title Douluo, just went to someone else!"
Dai Mubai heard Oscar's whispering, turned, and glared fiercely, but then realized that everyone else also looked envious. He thought about it carefully; it seemed he was indeed a little envious!
Bai Yu led Zhu Zhuqing to the room and turned to say, "Sit down. The cultivation technique needs to be practiced at night. It's still early, so first get familiar with the guiding movements; don't try to circulate it yet. Spirit Abilities require a practice area, so we'll start learning those later."
"How was the Spirit Bone integration last night?"
