"Spirit rings nearly a hundred thousand years old... what are their identities?"
The pressure far surpassing that of a Soul Sage made Flanders and Zhao Wuji tremble all over. The person before them was definitely close to breaking through to the Titled Douluo realm.
"I taught them. If you have any opinions, please feel free to speak up."
Shui Qinglian looked sleepy, her jade-like hand supporting her chin as she yawned.
Her casual tone completely disregarded Flanders and the others.
"Don't dare, don't dare. We just offended you, Senior. We hope you will be magnanimous and forgive us."
Flanders complimented with a humble expression, his humble demeanor transforming him into a completely different person.
"Oh, what if I say no?"
Shui Qinglian's icy blue eyes narrowed slightly, her tone revealing a deep chill.
"Auntie Qing!"
At this moment, Ning Rongrong stepped forward.
"Hmph, you still remember me? Why didn't you call me just now?"
Shui Qinglian turned her head away, looking angry.
"I ran away secretly. If they find out, I'll be caught. Auntie Qing, please let them go. I haven't had enough fun yet."
Ning Rongrong, adept at acting like a spoiled child, hugged Shui Qinglian and swung her arm around her.
"Alright, alright. We at Tianshui Academy don't practice 'bullying the weak.' Stop shaking, little girl."
Shui Qinglian really liked lively and playful children. Unlike her daughters, one was cold and stern all the time, while the other was always trying to steal men from her sister (and mother). They weren't cute at all.
"Hehe, Aunt Qing is the best, even better than Mom."
Mom only knows how to compete with her daughter for men... Ning Rongrong complained inwardly, her head resting on the oasis.
Flender and the others behind him breathed a sigh of relief.
"Aunt Qing, let me introduce you to my new friends. They're all geniuses."
"Zhu Zhuqing is twelve years old, a level 30 Quasi-Soul Master. Xiao Wu is twelve years old, a level 37 Soul Master. Impressive, right?"
Especially Zhu Zhuqing, who was personally trained by Miss Rongrong.
"Well, not bad. She's really amazing. Are you interested in coming to Tianshui Academy?"
Shui Qinglian's eyes flashed with surprise. She hadn't expected a phoenix to emerge from a chicken coop.
It would be a waste of talent to have such a talent follow Flender and the others.
Flender, who had just relaxed, suddenly felt a phoenix in his heart. He must not agree to this!
"I don't want to go to Tianshui Academy with you, Aunt Qing. I'm going to defeat everyone and win the Advanced Soul Master Competition."
Ning Rongrong puffed out her small, thin chest and said proudly.
"Oh? Really? Then Aunt Qing is looking forward to you defeating Bing'er and the others."
"Go for it!"
Of course, Shui Qinglian outwardly favored Ning Rongrong, but in reality, she didn't believe she and the others had the strength to defeat Tianshui Academy.
The Advanced Soul Master Competition was still two years away, and in those two years, Tianshui Academy had the potential to produce a few more Soul Kings.
Ning Rongrong and the others were only Soul Masters at best; the gap was too great to compare.
"Huh~"
Shui Bing'er glanced at Ning Rongrong and continued to sip her iced tea, exhaling cold air.
"Little girl, do you know how tempting you are? Auntie can't wait to eat you up in one bite. But Auntie doesn't eat cute children. Be careful next time, don't let the bad guys find you."
Shui Qinglian tapped Xiao Wu's head with a finger and transmitted a message.
Xiao Wu's expression changed upon hearing this. She then remembered that the aunt in front of her was about to break through to a Titled Douluo.
Luckily, Shui Qinglian wasn't interested in her.
Wait, she's a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast. Why isn't Shui Qinglian interested?
The human kid was the same way back then. Suddenly, Xiao Wu seemed to understand something.
Could it be... that human kid didn't want to hurt me?
He didn't want to hurt me, so he called me a useless soul beast?
I see. Humph, human kid, don't think Sister Xiao Wu will let you go just like that.
Xiao Wu's amazing brain circuits almost made her lose herself.
"Well, it's getting late. Goodbye, three lovely children."
With that, Shui Qinglian left with the people from Tianshui Academy.
"Rongrong, you seem to have a problem with that cold woman?"
Back in the room, Xiao Wu pulled Ning Rongrong aside to gossip.
"She's a vixen. Don't be fooled by her cold appearance. She's actually quite slutty inside, and she's just pretending to be so."
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth whenever she mentioned Shui Bing'er. Her arrogant demeanor was truly irritating.
"There's a story..."
Xiao Wu was excited, her gossipy spirit aflame.
"No way."
Zhu Zhuqing expressed her disbelief. Shui Bing'er's icy aura couldn't be faked. She was like the Snow Queen of tits, incredibly aloof.
"Hmph, you're fooled by her appearance. I saw her in bed with my own eyes. How could it be fake? That shameless vixen stole someone else's fiancée, hmm..."
"You didn't hear anything. I didn't say anything."
Ning Rongrong blushed and huddled under the covers.
"Rongrong has a fiancé? Shui Bing'er stole Rongrong's man? Are they rivals in love?"
Shh, what a big melon! Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were full.
"Don't worry, Rongrong. We'll help you defeat her and reclaim your fiancé."
Xiao Wu consoled him with a suppressed smile.
"Really?"
Ning Rongrong asked sheepishly, half of her head exposed.
"Yes."
Xiao Wu nodded heavily in response.
"Xiao Wu, you're so kind!"
Ning Rongrong suddenly pounced on Xiao Wu, kissing her excitedly.
"Hmm?"
Having lost her first kiss, Xiao Wu's eyes were blank, and she looked bewildered and lost.
