Douluo Continent: Narration Modified, Plot Begins to Collapse

Chapter 70: The Gift of a Pistol Touches Meng Yiran's Heart

After listening, Zhao Wuji thought for a moment and had no choice but to agree.

For him, this was the best solution. If a fight broke out, he could definitely escape, but the Shrek Academy students might not be so lucky.

"Okay, what should we compete in?"

Zhao Wuji asked.

Meng Yiran held a serpent spear in her right hand, her left hand resting on her slender waist, a confident smile on her face:

"Bai Yu just finished a battle with the Human-Faced Demon Spider, and his soul power is greatly depleted. I won't bully him. We won't use our soul power, and we can't get close. Within one minute, let's see whose attack hits the tree trunk more powerfully!"

She pointed to two large trees in the distance, looking very confident.

She had practiced throwing weapons since childhood, and throwing weapons were definitely a niche skill in Douluo Continent. Therefore, she felt that even without using soul power, she could still use throwing weapons to cause a lot of damage to tree trunks, while Bai Yu might not be able to.

Tang San, standing in the crowd, raised an eyebrow upon hearing this. This girl seemed to have a trump card; it looked like she was using hidden weapons. This was the first time he'd encountered a user of hidden weapons on the Douluo Continent.

Bai Yu doesn't count; in Tang San's view, Bai Yu learned from him.

However, Xiaoyu also knows how to use hidden weapons, and I "taught" him; he's definitely better than this silly girl. If it really comes down to this, then the soul bone will belong to Xiaoyu. He took the soul tool from my teacher before, so I need to find a way to trick him into giving me this soul bone.

As Tang San was daydreaming about the future, Bai Yu nodded to Meng Yiran, signaling her to set an example first.

Just as Meng Yiran was about to make her move, Oscar suddenly had an idea and jumped out to say:

"Wait a minute! This soul bone should have been ours to begin with. Now you've made a bet, and if we lose, the soul bone is yours, I have no objection. But if you lose, don't you need to pay something in return?"

Dragon Lord narrowed his eyes, his expression unfriendly, and said:

"What are you going to do?"

Oscar felt a little uneasy under Zhao Wuji's gaze, hid behind him, and grinned wickedly:

"How about this, if she loses, she can kiss Bai Yu!"

Ning Rongrong, Xiao Wu, and Zhu Zhuqing immediately looked at Oscar with disgust in their eyes.

Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun looked at Oscar with expressions that said, "Every man knows what I mean."

Meng Yiran's face flushed red. The Dragon and Snake Goddesses exchanged a glance and instantly understood each other's meaning.

Since they want to bring Bai Yu into the family, they need to cultivate a relationship between Meng Yiran and Bai Yu beforehand. Otherwise, if Meng Yiran refuses to comply, there's nothing they can do.

"Okay, we agree!"

Meng Yiran immediately became anxious.

"Grandpa and Grandma!"

The Dragon King and Snake Queen laughed:

"Yiran, you must have confidence in yourself; you may not necessarily lose."

Meng Yiran was fooled by her grandparents, and glanced at Bai Yu with a fighting spirit in her eyes.

I will definitely win!

"One minute countdown begins!"

At Zhao Wuji's command, Meng Yiran took out her throwing knife from Long Gong's soul tool and rhythmically threw it at the tree trunk.

Swish swish!

Having practiced throwing knives since childhood, she has developed excellent wrist strength; out of ten knives thrown at a tree trunk, seven or eight will stick into it.

"One minute is up!"

After Zhao Wuji finished speaking, Meng Yiran stopped what she was doing, wiped the sweat from her face, walked to the tree trunk to examine it, and revealed a smug expression.

"Bai Yu, just admit defeat!"

Bai Yu pursed his lips and looked at Long Gong, who nodded and said:

"One minute countdown begins!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yu suddenly took out a silver-white pistol from his soul tool.

To avoid disturbing some powerful spirit beasts with the sound of firing, he even made a silencer.

The bullet was fired, penetrating the tree trunk at a speed imperceptible to the naked eye, sending wood chips flying and creating a hole in an instant.

The Dragon God and Snake Goddess, along with Zhao Wuji, stared wide-eyed. Even they couldn't see the trajectory of the bullet. What kind of weapon was this?!

Only ten seconds had passed since the magazine was emptied. Bai Yu put down his pistol and smiled:

"Is there no need to continue the competition?"

The tree trunk was almost broken!

Meng Yiran was dumbfounded. The slight sense of pride in her heart was instantly shattered, which made her feel extremely frustrated. She hid behind Long Gong with a wronged expression.

Lord Long sighed and said:

"We lost, the soul bone is yours."

Oscar grinned mischievously:

"There's still one more kiss to come!"

Long Gong patted Meng Yiran's head and said:

"Randomly, I accept my loss. Go."

Meng Yiran gritted her teeth and walked up to Bai Yu, staring into his eyes with a hint of stubbornness mixed with grievance, as if she wanted to scare Bai Yu.

However, Bai Yu's deep eyes made Meng Yiran lose her composure first. Her mind went blank as she walked up to Bai Yu, and her face quickly turned red with embarrassment.

"Ooh ooh ooh ooh!"

Oscar and the others quickly started making a fuss, and Meng Yiran's face turned even redder.

She gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and pecked Bai Yu's face like a chick pecking at rice. Then, she stared at the ground in shame and indignation, not daring to look up at all.

Suddenly, Bai Yu's magnetic voice reached her ears:

"I'm sorry I prevented you from getting the spirit ring. As compensation, I'll give you my hidden weapon."

Meng Yiran subconsciously took the pistol Bai Yu handed her and blurted out:

"What kind of hidden weapon is this?"

Bai Yu laughed:

"I named it a pistol."

As he spoke, he took out a pack of bullets and explained:

"These are bullets. Load them into the pistol's magazine, then pull the trigger to fire. Oh, and this is the magazine, and the safety too. I'll show you how to use it."

Meng Yiran was stunned. Her attention was completely drawn to the well-made pistol, and she completely forgot her earlier shame and indignation.

At this moment, Tang San, unable to contain his curiosity, also came over. Soon after, Oscar, Ma Hongjun, Ning Rongrong, and others followed, listening to Bai Yu introduce his "homemade" "hidden weapons".

"Xiaoyu, your insurance design is very ingenious. How was it designed?"

Tang San had a deep-seated curiosity about the techniques used to make hidden weapons, and couldn't help but ask.

Bai Yu smiled and explained, but Tang San was completely confused and couldn't understand a word.

After all, he was from ancient times. If you explained the principles of automobiles to people from ancient times, they would be just as confused.

What is a braking system? What is an engine? A chicken that can start a fire?

Tang San fell into thought, while Ning Rongrong asked:

"Bai Yu, this thing isn't cheap, is it?"

Not cheap, but not expensive either; points are easy to earn anyway. Bai Yu smiled.

"It's definitely not cheap."

Upon hearing this, Meng Yiran immediately felt that the pistol in her hand was like a hot potato.

She said somewhat shyly:

"You...you just gave it to me like that?"

Bai Yu nodded, looked at Ning Rongrong, and smiled:

"When I get back, I'll try to make some and give them to you."

Ning Rongrong and the others were shocked, and Meng Yiran was even more shocked. Bai Yu was actually willing to give one to each of them for such exquisitely crafted hidden weapons. He was too generous!

Meng Yiran looked at Bai Yu with a complicated expression; she was tempted!

In the distance, the Dragon God and Snake Goddess watched this scene and smiled with satisfaction.

"Old man, I think we made the right choice in you."

"Well, even if this kid doesn't join our family, we won't lose out by following him."

After explaining how to use the pistol, Bai Yu looked at the dazed Meng Yiran and jokingly said:

"Why aren't you going back to your grandparents? Do you want to stay and join us?"

Oscar, Ma Hongjun, and the others immediately started making a fuss. Meng Yiran was no less attractive than Ning Rongrong and the others. If she really joined Shrek Academy, they might also get a bit of luck with women!

But to Meng Yiran, this "joining" had a deeper meaning, so she glared at Bai Yu with annoyance and returned to her grandparents' side.

"Acala, farewell!"

The Dragon God and Snake Goddess bowed.

Zhao Wuji bowed and breathed a sigh of relief.

These two old men have finally been sent away!
