This damn liar.
Clearly feeling unwell, yet he could still force a smile.
Ning Rongrong's fingertip had not yet withdrawn from Ye Qiu's face, but as she watched, it began to slide along.
Her thoughts gradually loosened.Ye Qiu was indeed the most talented Spirit Master she had ever seen.
They could perform a Martial Soul Fusion Technique together, fighting side by side.
And he was good-looking too.
Bright black eyes, high nose bridge, handsome features. Not inferior to Oscar, and even more masculine, more manly.
If he changed into another outfit, he would definitely look even better.
Ye Qiu could not help but chuckle suddenly.
"Ha, your inner drama is quite strong. So, should you consider me?"
"Ah!"
Ning Rongrong snapped back to reality, realizing that her fingertip had already reached the corner of Ye Qiu's mouth. She quickly withdrew, her face flushed pink under the mask.
"Wh-what am I supposed to consider… hmmph."
For a moment, Ning Rongrong was flustered and at a loss for words, making two hums before finally speaking in a delicate voice:"However… if you are sincere, this young lady can reluctantly give you a chance!"
"So reluctantly? Then never mind."
Ye Qiu shook his head slightly in disappointment, while inwardly admiring Ning Rongrong's exquisite face and graceful figure.
"You damn liar, you're teasing me, right?"
While she was pleased by Ye Qiu's sincere praise, anger still dominated.
Grabbing Ye Qiu's collar, she ground her teeth.
"Am I someone you can just pursue or not pursue at will?"
"You're playing with my feelings!"
"Do you even know?!"
Ye Qiu shrugged:
"What feelings do we even have?"
"How do you know we don't?!"
Ning Rongrong scolded, glaring at Ye Qiu fiercely.
Then, her body stiffened, eyes full of guilt. Under Ye Qiu's teasing gaze, she let go of his collar and silently lowered her head, her ears turning red.
Mumbling an explanation:"I-it's just a little bit, not much… if you don't value it, it'll just disappear."
"Is that so?"
Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow and nodded slightly.
"If that's the case… should I try and win you over?"
"Hmph! Suit yourself."
Ning Rongrong snorted coldly, and Ye Qiu laughed silently.
"Heh, young lady, you seem to be saying one thing but meaning another."
"Hey! You—you better stop peeking at my little thoughts!"
Ning Rongrong pushed Ye Qiu twice, face flushed, heart racing, embarrassed.
She wasn't really wanting Ye Qiu to chase her.
"All right then."
Ye Qiu smiled and disconnected as instructed.
The endless life force, the fragrance of Blue Silver Grass, gradually calmed Ning Rongrong.
All the way, Ning Rongrong pouted, speechless, leaning against Ye Qiu, feeling a bit ashamed.
She felt somewhat devalued…
Not feeling as lofty and superior as Ye Qiu had said.
Soon, Ye Qiu and she returned to the waiting area.
"Rongrong, are you okay?"
Zhu Zhuqing quickly stepped forward, concern showing in her expression as she looked at Ning Rongrong, who was being held by Ye Qiu.
"I'm fine, already better."
Ning Rongrong dared not look directly at Ye Qiu. She tugged on his clothes and jumped to the ground, casting a glance at Dai Mubai, speaking with a hint of sarcasm:
"Zhqing, I told you we could win, right?"
"Unlike some people, like a sick cat, thinking others are weak just because they're not strong themselves, hmph!"
At the end, Ning Rongrong even gave Dai Mubai a cold snort, leaving him twisting his mouth in frustration.
Zhu Zhuqing also watched Ye Qiu with amazement. She had not expected that he could even fly.
——————————
Before Ye Qiu could rest, the single-combat matches of Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Qiu began almost simultaneously.
Zhu Zhuqing nodded to Ye Qiu and entered the Spirit Combat passage first.
Ye Qiu beckoned with his fingers:
"Rongrong, hurry and give me back my mask."
"Got it."
Ning Rongrong raised her hand and placed the mask directly on Ye Qiu's face, as if retaliating for his earlier teasing.
She tapped her hand, turned, and snorted coldly:
"Hmph! Go ahead."
"All right, my young lady."
Ye Qiu rolled his eyes in exasperation, adjusted the mask, and turned to leave.
"Who's your young lady? You're shameless."
Looking at Ye Qiu's back, Ning Rongrong pouted, touching her flushed face and realizing she was still wearing the mask.
She removed it and saw — it was the same type as Xiao Wu's mask.
Her expression immediately darkened.
This bastard wouldn't really be trying to use me as a replacement when he said he wanted to pursue me, would he?
Ning Rongrong felt both embarrassed and angry, with a touch of strangeness.
How could Ye Qiu be thinking about a replacement so quickly?!
Could it just be a joke?Hmph! A real dead scumbag!
Fuming, Ning Rongrong looked at Ye Qiu on the Spirit Combat platform, cursing while cheering him on internally.
————————
This time, Zhu Zhuqing faced a level-24 offensive Spirit Combat Master.
Her Martial Soul was a bull, with one white and one yellow spirit ring.
Zhu Zhuqing ended the fight quickly.
Ye Qiu's opponent was a level-48 control-type Spirit Combat Master.
Martial Soul: Ghost Vine, with one white, two yellow, and one purple spirit rings.
Ye Qiu was barely interested.
He simply wrapped in Blue Silver Spirit, exploded in attacks, and smashed him flat.
He registered his points ahead of Zhu Zhuqing and returned to the waiting room.
Seeing Ning Rongrong staring blankly, Ye Qiu quietly sat beside her and suddenly put his arm around her shoulders, teasing:"What are you staring at? Have you decided where we'll go on our date later?"
"Ah!"
Ye Qiu's sudden appearance startled Ning Rongrong.
"You-you'll die, you!"
Ning Rongrong glared at Ye Qiu with a mix of resentment and shyness but did not push him away, pouting:
"What date? Since when did I agree to that?"
"Didn't we say I'd pursue you?"
"How could I be pursued without a date? You can't board first and pay later, right?"
Ye Qiu smiled, somewhat surprised that Ning Rongrong hadn't pushed him away.
"Don't even think about it!"
Ning Rongrong snapped, swatting away Ye Qiu's wandering hands.
Her blue eyes glinted with determination, letting out a cold snort:
"Hmph! This is your own business, not something for a girl to arrange."
"All right, then wait and see."
Ye Qiu shrugged casually, then grew curious.
"By the way, what are you looking at?"
"Look at that perverted tiger kneeling! See? He knelt again. Haha, truly shameful!"
Ning Rongrong pointed at the Spirit Combat platform, smiling freely, yet unconsciously leaning against Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu looked up.
Dai Mubai had also entered the arena.
He was lucky; his opponent was a level-35 control-type Spirit Combat Master.
Martial Soul: Sword, with two yellow and one purple spirit rings.
Considering the level difference and Martial Soul quality, Dai Mubai should not perform too poorly.
What puzzled Ye Qiu, however, was that every time Dai Mubai tried to attack, the opponent waved his sword, and Dai Mubai would press his palms together, kneeling before the opponent.
Ye Qiu chuckled inwardly.
This Martial Skill was interesting — paired with teammates, it was an excellent control skill.
Ye Qiu and Ning Rongrong leaned together, watching the action unfold.
Zhu Zhuqing returned to the waiting area as well, following their line of sight. She saw Dai Mubai kneeling repeatedly on the Spirit Combat platform.
Her cold features tightened.
Finally, all hesitation vanished — she had no obligation to jump into the fire for such a guy.
