Inside the steam-filled bathroom, Zhu Zhuqing and the other four girls were wearing boldly designed swimsuits.
Leaning against the edge of the bath, Xiao Yan was truly enjoying a feast for the eyes.
The girls were all stunningly beautiful—straight, elegant noses above soft, rosy lips, and each of them possessed an excellent figure.
The special outfits revealed smooth, jade-like backs, snow-white arms like lotus roots, and slender waists that could be encircled with a single hand, perfectly accentuating the delicate design of the white lace swimsuits.
Their pretty faces were free of any makeup. The fierce competition had left their cheeks flushed, their bodies brimming with a complex charm that blended the mature allure of women in bloom with the purity of young maidens.
After an intense round of competition, Zhu Zhuqing was suddenly pinned down hard by the "referee," Xiao Yan, who pressed her small head firmly.
Victory secured!
Under everyone's gaze, Zhu Zhuqing's pretty face turned bright red. She lightly pressed her cherry lips together and swallowed nervously. The victory had come far too suddenly—she hadn't expected to win at all.
Seeing Zhu Zhuqing breathing rapidly, Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes. With those powerful white-jade soul tools, how could she possibly lose?
The next morning, two luxurious carriages slowly rolled out of Heaven Dou City.
Xiao Yan lay comfortably with his head resting on Xiao Yi's purple-black silk-stockinged thighs, sipping a strawberry milkshake. His gaze drifted out the window as he looked at the vast expanse of white scenery outside. The Heaven Dou Royal Academy really knew how to pick a location—it was actually built on a mountain.
Her fingers gently stroking Xiao Yan's jet-black hair, Xiao Yi's cheeks beneath her veil gradually flushed red.
By noon, the carriages slowly stopped at the gates of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"What are you doing, taking so long to get down?" Ning Rongrong pouted her red lips as she looked at Xiao Yan. Last night, there had been four rounds of competition—and she was the only one who lost.
[○｀Д○]
"What's the rush?" Xiao Yan smiled faintly. "At this time, once we finish enrollment procedures, we can eat at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy right away."
Ning Rongrong rubbed her slightly sore cheeks and snorted softly. Believe you? As if.
"Stop right there. Who are you people?"
Before Xiao Yan and the others could enter the academy, ten people blocked their path.
"Is the security at Heaven Dou Royal Academy really this tight? The guards are so alert!" Xiao Yan asked Ning Rongrong in surprise.
The Ning family's castle was located near the academy, and Ning Rongrong used to come here often. Some collateral clan members of her sect were also students here.
"What kind of guards are that young? These are students of Heaven Dou Royal Academy," Ning Rongrong said with a laugh.
Xiao Yan awkwardly raised a hand and rubbed his nose. No wonder the uniforms were made of such fine material—they were students.
"Senior brothers, we're here to enroll in Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
The leader, Xue Beng, swept his gaze over Xiao Yan and the others, a look of disdain appearing on his face."Where are you from? I know all the nobles around Heaven Dou City, but I've never seen you before."
Seeing the hostile expression on the young man's face, Xiao Yan didn't waste effort on his expression and replied calmly, "We aren't nobles. We were invited by teachers of Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"So just a bunch of rich commoners." Xue Beng saw through their background, his tone becoming even more arrogant. "Get lost right now, or we'll use force."
Xiao Yan frowned slightly. This guy's stupidity was painfully obvious.
Was it prejudice of nobles toward commoners, or was he simply an idiot?
Might as well test him.
"Use force?" Xiao Yan sneered, stamping his foot lightly on the ground.
In an instant, surging force swept out dozens of meters with overwhelming might.
Xue Beng and his group were mediocre in strength. Even Xiao Yan's casual stomp left them utterly powerless. They were instantly shaken to the ground.
"You—" The moment Xue Beng raised his head, he saw a black shoe sole abruptly appear in front of his face.
Xiao Yan looked down at him and said, "Go on. Why aren't you talking anymore? Next you should be announcing your background, right?"
How does he know? Xue Beng was secretly shocked—he really was about to say that.
"Fine, I'll say it!" Xue Beng gritted his teeth. "I'm the fourth prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Beng! You'd better apologize to me right now!"
Another prince? Xiao Yan blinked lightly. There was already a prince's corpse lying neatly in his storage jade belt.
Ning Rongrong secretly laughed. Xue Beng truly didn't know the meaning of death—Xiao Yan had just killed a prince not long ago, and now Xue Beng was about to be next.
What stunned Ning Rongrong was that Xiao Yan didn't take action to teach Xue Beng a lesson.
Instead, Xiao Yan lifted his hand slightly in the air, instantly pulling Xue Beng up, then turned and walked toward Ning Rongrong and the others.
If his judgment was correct, Heaven Dou Royal Academy was going to be a troublesome place—not a good sign.
Xiao Yan's retreat made Xue Beng think he was afraid of his status, causing his arrogance to swell even more.
"Trying to leave? Leave the six women behind you for this prince, or you're not going anywhere!"
It had to be said—these six women were all peerlessly beautiful. Xue Beng had caused many incidents before, but this was the first time he had seen women of such stunning beauty.
Something that could both cause trouble and let him enjoy himself—he loved it.
Ning Rongrong thought to herself: This Xue Beng is constantly testing the boundary between life and death. Surely he's dead this time.
Xiao Yan had already anticipated this. His figure flickered like a ghost as he appeared before Xue Beng, raising a hand to pat his shoulder.
"What are you doing?" Xue Beng asked in surprise. He had thought he was about to be seriously injured—but Xiao Yan wasn't hitting him?
Looking at the impossibly handsome Xiao Yan, Xue Beng suddenly thought of a terrifying possibility."You're not planning to stay too, are you? This prince doesn't swing that way."
Xiao Yan grinned. This seemingly dandy prince had quite the imagination. He leaned closer and whispered a few words.
Xue Beng's face instantly lit up with joy. "Really?"
"Why would I lie to you? We're in the imperial capital—could I lie here? It all depends on whether you're capable enough."
"But what if… I lose? What would you want?" Xue Beng asked cautiously, not wanting to appear too foolish.
Xiao Yan raised two fingers. "Two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins. How about it?"
Xue Beng pretended to think it over. "So you just want money. Two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins for your wager—it's worth it. I'm not afraid of you cheating. I'll take the bet."
As he spoke, Xue Beng kicked one of his underlings who was pretending to be dead.
Very quickly, a gorgeous gambling table appeared between the two.
Seeing the sudden gambling duel—with a stake of two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins—most people around held their breath and watched.
After rubbing his hands together, Xue Beng slowly began shaking the cup in his hand, the dice clattering inside.
Xiao Yan crossed his arms and waited leisurely for the dice to stop.
About a minute later, Xue Beng's arm was tired from shaking before he finally stopped. The dice beneath the cup fell silent.
"Your guess," Xue Beng said confidently, lifting his chin.
Xiao Yan absentmindedly scratched his ear, didn't even look at the cup, and stared at Xue Beng's face."Small… no, that's impossible. I guess big."
Xue Beng burst out laughing. "Wrong! Based on my more than ten years of gambling experience, this is definitely small!"
With that, Xue Beng abruptly lifted the cup.
"Four, five, six—big…"
Xue Beng's face immediately fell, muttering, "Impossible!"
After a brief pause, Xue Beng had the table cleared away, took out a Soul Coin card from his soul tool, handed it to Xiao Yan, and then left with his men.
Though he was a dandy, he still had gambling integrity.
Watching Xue Beng's retreating figure, Xiao Yan's desire to leave grew even stronger.
Ning Rongrong hurried over to Xiao Yan, pouring out all her questions at once."What just happened? Why did you suddenly start gambling with that dandy prince—and he even agreed to your terms?"
"A dandy prince? Xue Beng is far from simple." Xiao Yan scanned the surroundings to confirm no one was nearby before speaking. "Want to hear my analysis?"
Ning Rongrong nodded repeatedly—she was far too curious.
Xiao Yan said slowly, "Anyone can see Xue Beng's image as a dandy prince. For a prince to become a dandy, there must be reasons—especially when his acting is so exaggerated that it's practically idiotic. Either Xue Beng is truly a brainless dandy, or there's a deeper reason behind it. That's why you saw my seemingly abnormal behavior."
With Xiao Yan's reminder, the girls also realized that aside from his status, Xue Beng was no different from a street thug—indeed very unusual.
"Then how did you convince him to gamble?" Ning Rongrong asked again.
"That was easy. I just told him that if he won, I'd help knock you girls out and deliver you to his residence."
Yan Zhi looked horrified and quickly said, "Hall Master, how could you do something like that to Rongrong and the others? That's so hurtful!"
Xiao Yan replied calmly, "Don't worry. Your share of the two hundred thousand will be given to you tomorrow."
Her little scheme exposed, Yan Zhi blushed and fell silent.
Xiao Yan continued, "Actually, I was testing Xue Beng from the start. His reactions were too foolish, so I used gambling to observe his expressions."
"Testing?" Yan Zhi found it hard to believe. It was just a gamble—how was that a test?
"When I proposed the bet and offered an irresistible temptation for any man, Xue Beng looked delighted on the surface, but his eyes remained extremely calm—like an ancient deep pool without ripples. That means he isn't actually lustful. His constant troublemaking and exaggerated lechery are just an act."
"Next, when we gambled on big or small, his dice technique was average—only slightly knowledgeable. While guessing, I paid close attention to his eyes. When I first said 'small,' I noticed a flicker of disdain. He looked down on me because he knew the result was big. That shows he isn't stupid at gambling—he's above average."
"That confirms that this prince isn't the idiot he pretends to be."
"But when I changed my guess to big, Xue Beng deliberately claimed to be a gambling expert and insisted it was small. That went against his true thoughts. Why? Because he was acting again—intentionally making others think he had no skill, relying purely on luck, and even guessing wrong."
By this point, Ning Rongrong and the others were deep in thought, their gazes toward Xiao Yan completely changed.
They had all witnessed what he described, yet hadn't realized it was all a test.
Zhu Zhuqing, having already seen Xiao Yan's sharp observation and deductive abilities, now witnessed them once again. Her beautiful eyes fixed on him.
Why would a prince deliberately display his stupidity and dandy nature?
The greatest possibility was that he was feigning weakness—showing weakness to his enemies.
In the Heaven Dou Empire, his own country, the ones he needed to appear weak before could only be his brothers.
A struggle for the throne…
Xiao Yan made a decision in his heart. If Xue Beng came looking for trouble again just to maintain his dandy persona, then there would be no need to stay at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
He didn't want to play along with the act, nor did he want to kill anyone.
Right now, what he needed was for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament to proceed smoothly. If a prince suddenly died in the imperial capital at this critical juncture, even if the royal family couldn't find the cause, it could still affect the tournament.
That would be unfavorable to his plans.
"Alright, don't overthink it for now. Qin Ming is here," Xiao Yan coughed lightly as a reminder.
Under Qin Ming's guidance, Xiao Yan soon met the three high-ranking Education Committee members of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
After sizing up the three elders of varying heights, Xiao Yan felt a surge of battle intent."Three Soul Douluo-level experts… this Heaven Dou Royal Academy is interesting."
After scanning Xiao Yan and the seven others, the medium-built, slender Meng Shenji smiled kindly."You must be the youngsters who defeated Tianheng and the others last night. Truly young and promising. I am Meng Shenji, Chief of the Education Committee of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Martial Soul: Black Demon. Control-type, Level 86 Eight-Ring Battle Soul Douluo. Let me introduce the others."
As he spoke, Meng Shenji pointed to the elder on his left."This is the Vice Chief of the Committee, Bai Baoshan Soul Douluo. Martial Soul: Heavenly Star Furnace. Defense-type, Level 85 Eight-Ring Battle Soul Douluo."
Bai Baoshan was chubby, wearing a gentle smile, looking very amiable.
Meng Shenji then pointed to the final elder."This is the Third Seat of the Committee, Zhi Lin Soul Douluo. Martial Soul: Azure Sky Vine. Control-type, Level 83 Eight-Ring Tool Soul Douluo."
Among the three, Zhi Lin looked the most ordinary—his appearance plain, with only the occasional gleam in his eyes hinting at something special.
"Junior Xiao Yan, captain of the Blue Silver Team, greets the three Education Committee members," Xiao Yan said with a smile, neither servile nor overbearing.
Zhi Lin said calmly, "Your bearing is decent, but… a Blue Silver Grass soul master who has gone down the food-system path yet can still unleash such combat power—I don't believe it."
