Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 154 Teasing Meng Hongchen

When Ji Lin started teasing Xiao Hongchen, Wang Dong'er's eyes lit up. This was interesting. She put on an innocent look and said, "Of course I'm calling you, Uncle!"

Wang Dong'er smiled and pointed to Xiao Hongchen's short mustache, the meaning was clear: you have a mustache, what else can you be but an old man?

"Me? Am I that youngest?" Xiao Hongchen looked at Wang Dong'er, who was pretending to be innocent, speechless.

Wang Dong'er nodded, and said mischievously, "I'm alright, not too old. You must be a teacher at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Uncle!"

"Don't call me uncle," Xiao Hongchen said angrily.

He is usually very flamboyant and has only a so-so relationship with the other members of the team. Now that he is in such a predicament, no one stands up to help him. Instead, they are gloating and laughing to themselves.

Only his younger sister, Meng Hongchen, stepped forward, hands on her hips, and said to Wang Dong'er, "Little sister, look carefully, my brother is only fourteen years old this year, not even fifteen yet, not some uncle."

Seeing someone stand up for Xiao Hongchen, Wang Dong'er's eyes darted around, and she said with a look of longing and envy, "Sister, you're so beautiful!"

Meng Hongchen was stunned upon hearing this. She subconsciously glanced at Ji Lin behind Wang Dong'er, her pretty face flushed, and she lowered her head, murmuring, "Really? You're very beautiful too."

Wang Dong'er noticed Meng Hongchen's little trick, and her expression immediately turned slightly strange. A mischievous smile appeared on her lips. She pulled Ji Lin in front of her and laughed, "Of course it's true! You can ask our class monitor if you don't believe me."

"Ah!" Meng Hongchen was startled. She quickly looked up at Ji Lin, then lowered her head again, her pretty face flushed.

Ji Lin glanced at Wang Dong'er speechlessly. Wang Dong'er winked at Ji Lin, looking playful and cute.

However, when it comes to a wicked sense of humor and cunning, Ji Lin is no less than Wang Dong'er. Don't forget, who was the first to call Xiao Hongchen "Uncle"? So he simply played along with Wang Dong'er's teasing of Meng Hongchen. He nodded and said with a look of agreement, "Dong'er is right, this sister is indeed very beautiful."

Hearing Ji Lin say that she was beautiful, Meng Hongchen felt dizzy and said in a voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, "You...you're handsome too."

If Ji Lin and Wang Dong'er hadn't been so close, they really wouldn't have been able to hear it.

Seeing that Meng Hongchen had been defeated, Wang Dong'er smiled slightly and said, "Is this uncle really your brother, sister? He doesn't look like it. You were born to the same parents, but the difference is really huge."

"Little girl, are you looking for a beating?" Xiao Hongchen finally couldn't hold back anymore. This girl not only called him old, but also indirectly said he was ugly, and even conspired with that despicable Ji Lin to flirt with his sister. Did she really think he couldn't see through it? Only his silly little sister Meng, in her infatuation, hadn't realized it. This uncle can tolerate it, but the aunt can't!

"Brother, why are you being so fierce?" Meng Hongchen was startled awake by Xiao Hongchen's voice. Looking at Wang Dong'er's panicked face and Ji Lin who was rushing to protect Wang Dong'er, she couldn't help but pull Xiao Hongchen along.

"Dream. You can't be serious?" Xiao Hongchen stared at Meng Hongchen in disbelief, while Wang Dong'er took the opportunity to give Xiao Hongchen a provocative look. Then, she pulled Ji Lin, Wang Qiu'er, and Xiao Xiao and quickly followed Wang Yan and the others down the stairs. She didn't forget to turn back and wave to Meng Hongchen, saying, "Pretty sister, see you next time."

"Wang Dong'er, you're something else!" Xiao Xiao exclaimed in surprise, "You actually know how to flirt with girls! But that girl was really pretty!"

Wang Dong'er snorted and said, "It's alright. The main reason is that Ji Lin is there. Otherwise, it wouldn't be so easy to control that young lady."

"Hey! What does this have to do with the class monitor?" Xiao Xiao asked, puzzled.

Wang Dong'er, with a mysterious air, asked, "Xiao Xiao, do you know what the ultimate level of picking up girls is?"

Xiao Xiao shook her head blankly.

She's a perfectly normal girl, not gay, so how would she know about the ultimate level of picking up girls?

Wang Dong'er glanced at Ji Lin and said solemnly, "That means making girls come and pursue you! Haha~"

Xiao Xiao was still completely confused. Wait, what does this have to do with the class monitor?

Wang Dong'er looked at Xiao Xiao with exasperation. She had made it so obvious, yet Xiao Xiao still hadn't realized it.

Wang Dong'er pulled Xiao Xiao aside and whispered something in Xiao Xiao's ear. From time to time, Xiao Xiao's exclamations could be heard, and her gaze frequently turned to Ji Lin with a strange look.

Wang Qiu'er, with her hands behind her back, bent down and leaned close to Ji Lin, laughing as she said, "This is the ultimate way to pick up girls! You're such a bad guy!"

Ji Lin shrugged speechlessly and said, "Don't listen to that girl Dong'er's nonsense. What does she know about the highest level of picking up girls? She's just having fun."

Wang Yan and the others, who were walking ahead, couldn't help but shake their heads with smiles when they heard the commotion behind them, saying, "These little guys are really full of energy!"

Xu Sanshi quietly approached Bei Bei and whispered, "I think Junior Brother Ji Lin is really amazing. Didn't you see the way that girl from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy looked at Junior Brother Ji Lin just now? She was completely captivated. It seems I really should learn from him. I really need to learn from him."

Beibei glanced at Xu Sanshi speechlessly and said, "Study my ass! Look at how handsome Ji Lin is. Do you even have that kind of appearance? If you were half as handsome as me, you wouldn't be in this mess now."

"You're the one talking nonsense!" Xu Sanshi retorted angrily. "The reason I can't get her is because... ouch. Who kicked my butt?" When he turned his head and saw Jiang Nannan's angry face, he immediately became obedient, lightly slapped himself, and said with a flattering look, "I won't tell, don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

Jiang Nannan ignored him, quickened her pace, and walked ahead of him.

Shrek Academy students walked in front, followed by the students from Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. Xiao Hongchen watched the Shrek group playing around in front of him, gritting his teeth. They called him old and ugly to his face and even flirted with his sister. He would remember this grudge.

The group filed into Xingluo Square.

Perhaps because the Star Luo Empire had allowed more spectators in today, Star Luo Square was unusually crowded. It was practically packed with people, shoulder to shoulder. The sheer number of heads made it look like a dense, black mass.

The competition rest area was noticeably quieter. The vast majority of participating teams had been eliminated, leaving only sixteen teams representing the strongest academies on the continent. Four matches would be played today, followed by four more tomorrow. Then came the individual tournament against the same opponents, also over two days. After all four days of competition, the round of sixteen to eight would conclude. Each round of elimination would be followed by a one-day rest period before the next round of matches began.
