Immediately afterwards, everyone felt a blur before their eyes, and Flander's figure appeared in the arena like a ghost.
He scooped up the injured Zhu Zhuqing in his arms, his soul power surging beneath his feet, transforming him into a black shadow as he sped towards the academy's kitchen.
That's because he went to find Teacher Shao Xin, the Food-type Soul Saint, to treat his injuries.
Wang Teng slowly walked to the edge of the playground, his gaze falling on Ning Rongrong.
"It seems I've won this time."
"If we won, we won!"
Ning Rongrong puffed out her cheeks and said angrily, "A grown man like you has no manners at all! Humph! Xiao Wu, let's go see Zhu Qing!"
She grabbed Xiaowu's hand and ran towards the kitchen without looking back.
Wang Teng smiled helplessly and turned to look at the others: "Women are really unreasonable. Oh well, let's go take a look too."
"it is good."
Everyone nodded and walked together toward the kitchen.
Chapter 132 The Conflict Between Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing
Soon, Wang Teng and the others arrived at the kitchen.
At this moment, Teacher Shao Xin was already treating Zhu Zhuqing.
The slightly overweight teacher, who always wore a chef's uniform, was focused at this moment, his soul power surging around him.
"First Soul Skill: Soul Power Candy".
"Second Soul Skill: Detoxifying Candy Beans"
"Sixth Soul Skill: All-Round Candy Bean".
As his deep voice echoed in the kitchen, three spirit rings rose one after another beneath Teacher Shao Xin's feet.
Two yellow and one black spirit rings shimmered in the dimly lit kitchen, reflecting on everyone's faces.
As the spirit rings flickered, three candies of different colors materialized out of thin air.
One glows with a light blue halo, one is as white as snow, and one is a vibrant, emerald green.
They floated silently in front of Zhu Zhuqing.
"teacher……"
Zhu Zhuqing looked at the candy in front of her and frowned slightly.
"What are you waiting for? Eat up!"
Shao Xin urged.
"Oh, Mr. Shao Xin."
Flander couldn't help but speak up, saying, "Zhuqing's injury is to her arm; how is she supposed to eat by herself?"
"Oh! Look at my memory!"
Shao Xin slapped his forehead, revealing a look of sudden realization and embarrassment.
"I'll do it."
Dai Mubai immediately stepped forward, took the candies, and quickly walked to Zhu Zhuqing's side.
"Zhuqing, come here."
Dai Mubai leaned down and brought the candy to her lips, speaking softly.
"I don't need you to feed me."
Zhu Zhuqing pursed her lips and turned her face away.
"Stop fooling around, treating your injuries is the priority."
Dai Mubai patiently persuaded him, stretching his hand forward again.
"I said I don't need it!"
Zhu Zhuqing suddenly raised her voice and shrank back.
"I find you disgusting!"
The air suddenly froze.
Dai Mubai froze in mid-air, the gentleness on his face quickly fading, replaced by a cold hardness as if he had been stung.
What...did you just say?
He stared at Zhu Zhuqing and asked, word by word.
Zhu Zhuqing's chest heaved as if she had mustered all her courage. She looked up at him and said, "You know what I'm saying."
"Instead of wasting your time feeding me, you should go feed your twin sisters."
"Okay...you're doing very well."
Dai Mubai remained silent for a few seconds, then suddenly let out a cold laugh and abruptly straightened up.
He loosened his grip, and the few precious healing candies fell to the ground with a "plop" and rolled into the dust in the corner.
Then, Dai Mubai turned around, pushed through the crowd, and strode out of the kitchen without looking back.
"All right."
Flander rubbed his temples, looked at the remaining people, and instructed, "You all go out first, let Zhu Qing have some peace and quiet."
"Xiao Wu, Rong Rong, you two stay and keep her company."
"Fatty, Xiao Ao, go check on Mu Bai and make sure he doesn't do anything impulsive."
"Yes, Dean."
Wang Teng and other students withdrew one after another.
"Flander, aren't you going to do anything about these two looking like this?"
"If they continue like this, I'm afraid their martial soul fusion technique will have problems."
Shao Xin looked at Zhu Zhuqing, then at Dai Mubai who had left, and asked worriedly.
"Sigh! Feelings can't be forced. After all, people can deceive others, but how can they deceive themselves? Even if I forcefully intervene, their martial soul fusion skill will probably be difficult to achieve!"
Flanders stopped, shook his head, and sighed.
"It seems that only time can untangle their knots now."
"Alright, I'll leave this place to you now. I'll be leaving."
After saying that, Flander also left the kitchen.
Afterwards, Teacher Shao Xin sighed, condensed a few more candies, placed them on a plate, handed them to Xiao Wu, shook his head, and left.
The kitchen fell silent, leaving only the three girls.
Ning Rongrong picked up the plate, carefully pinched a candy bean, and held it to Zhu Zhuqing's lips, asking, "Zhuqing, what happened just now?"
"Isn't Boss Dai your fiancé? Why are you two having such a falling out?"
Xiao Wu leaned closer, her eyes sparkling, and asked curiously, "Yeah, your relationship seems so complicated."
Zhu Zhuqing closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and slowly exhaled.
She opened her mouth and put the candy in her mouth, feeling a gentle warmth spreading from her throat to her arms, which significantly reduced the burning sensation.
After a moment of silence, Zhu Zhuqing spoke in a low voice: "Dai Mubai is the second prince of the Star Luo Empire. I was betrothed to him from the moment I was born."
"According to the rules of the Star Luo royal family, the competition for the throne is extremely brutal... The loser often only has one path: the destruction of their martial soul."
When she mentioned 'the destruction of her martial spirit,' Zhu Zhuqing paused before continuing, 'We should have faced all of this together.'
"But a few years ago, when the pressure was at its peak, he ran away alone... abandoning all his responsibilities, abandoning me, and fleeing to the Heavenly Dou Empire."
"I... am the one who was left behind."
"The cold shoulders from my family, the pressure from my sister, and the fear of not being able to see the future..."
"I have to bear it all myself."
"Later, I finally found out that he was in Soto and came looking for him."
"On my very first day here, I saw him walking into the hotel with a pair of twins, one on each side of him."
Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong listened with their eyes wide open.
"So that's how it is..."
Ning Rongrong shook her head in disbelief and said, "I always thought Boss Dai was generous and righteous, but I never expected... he would be so irresponsible."
"No wonder."
Xiao Wu also remembered something and said, "The day Xiao San and I arrived in Soto City, we ran into him on the street in broad daylight with two girls... It turned out to be those twins."
"Hmph, birds of a feather flock together."
Ning Rongrong pursed her lips and said, "There's a reason why he hangs out with Fatty and Oscar."
The three girls exchanged a glance and sighed in unison.
"Then Zhuqing, what about your competition with your sister?"
Xiao Wu asked worriedly.
"do not know."
Zhu Zhuqing lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes casting a faint shadow on her cheeks.
"Let's take one step at a time."
She slowly finished eating the remaining candies on the plate.
As the medicine gradually took effect, the burns on Zhu Zhuqing's arm scabbed over and healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving only a faint pink new skin.
For some reason, in the brief moment of her wandering thoughts, the image of Wang Teng suddenly flashed through her mind.
Not the boy who wielded the spinning top and launched fierce attacks during today's competition, but the calm and unwavering gaze he gave her when he turned to look at her half a month ago on a country road after casually dealing with his pursuers.
