"If you want a potion, that's fine," Zhuge Lan began.
"But I'm in a hurry this time, and I didn't bring any attendants."
"For the time you're at Shrek Academy, you'll do my laundry and wash my dishes."
"Before you get your third Soul Ring, I guarantee I'll help you get one with a limit of over 3000 years."
[Mood Points +2333]
Oscar's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly!
—This deal was just too damn good! "No problem!"
"From today on, I, Oscar, will take care of everything you need, Zhuge Lan!"
"Are you tired, Lan-ge?"
"I'll go get you a chair!"
He dashed off in a flash.
He returned.
Left hand holding two wooden chairs, right hand holding two cups of tea.
He eagerly gestured for Zhuge Lan and Zhu Zhuqing to sit and drink tea.
Dai Mubai watched from the side, quite envious.
[Mood Points +666]
That's right!
Envy.
To increase the Soul Ring limit by 3,000 years for no reason!
Get ahead by a single step, and gain an advantage at every subsequent step.
Just look at Zhuge Lan, a Soul Elder at level 35, and see how he makes Dai Mubai, at level 37, apprehensive. It's enough to see his profound foundation.
Dai Mubai was also very tempted by that Recipe.
But... The dirty work that Zhuge Lan didn't want to do had already been taken care of by Oscar.
What price could he offer?
Like Zhu Zhuqing, promise a condition?
Hmm.
He thought back to the previous deal between Zhuge Lan and Flender.
--Gold Soul Coins might be a good idea!
He immediately took a step forward to try.
Unexpectedly.
Ning Rongrong was faster, arriving in front of Zhuge Lan.
She said prettily, "Classmate Zhuge, how about I buy your recipe for 100,000 Gold Soul Coins?"
Pay attention!
It was "buy the recipe," not "buy the medicine."
This 100,000 Gold Soul Coins sounded like a lot, causing Tang San and the others to widen their eyes in shock.
But Zhuge Lan remained unmoved.
How many talents could the Whale Glue Recipe in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's hands cultivate? How much value could it create?
A mere 100,000 Gold Soul Coins was just a drop in the bucket.
"If you truly want the recipe, have your father come talk to me," Zhuge Lan said casually. "Or either Sword Douluo or Bone Douluo would do, but the others aren't necessary."
Dai Mubai and the others didn't think anything was off.
Such a precious recipe deserved the attention of a Title Douluo, or the head of one of the three major sects.
But…
[Mood Points +1999]
Looking at the number above Ning Rongrong's head, Zhuge Lan smiled.
What did he say that was so insulting?
No.
It's purely because this little devil didn't get her way, so she's angry.
[Mood Points +2999]
[Mood Points +3999]
Oh!
Another treasure player who has mastered the skill "The Angrier I Get"?
Ning Rongrong was also furious, so she simply stopped pretending to be a good girl.
The gentleness on her face was gone. Her eyes were filled with disdain and arrogant pride.
She put one hand on her hip and pointed a finger at Zhuge Lan's nose.
"Kid!"
"It's an honor that this lady is offering you 100,000 Gold Soul Coins for your Recipe!"
"Do you really think that just because you have a little Recipe, everyone will be begging you?"
"You should cooperate if you know what's good for you."
"Otherwise, this lady will call for my servants and have you tied up and brought back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
Tang San and Xiao Wu were both stunned.
That sweet little girl, actually saying such harsh words?
But Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing both had strange expressions.
Ning Rongrong clearly thought Zhuge Lan was some lucky nobody without any backing.
But Zhuge Lan's performance just now... Could he really have no background?
Hey! Zhuge Lan actually has no one behind him.
But he has a system! 'System, if Chen Xin and the others show up, can you handle it?'
'Can you also hook me up with a wild Title Douluo?'
[This system only provides item exchange services, no summoning services!]
'Then list items that can take down a Soul Douluo, ones I can afford.'
[Host can consider the Soul Tool rental service!]
[Host can consider Soul Tool rental services!]

[Level 8 Fixed-Type Soul Tool · All-Terrain Self-Propelled Soul Tool Turret: 100,000 Mood Points/minute]
Excellent!
Zhuge Lan's back straightened immediately.
He summoned his Martial Soul, Li Jing's longsword, and ignited his million-year first Soul Ring.
100% chance of being caught barehanded! "Swish—"
One second, Ning Rongrong was still imperious; the next, she was kneeling before Zhuge Lan, hands raised high to catch Li Jing's longsword.
▄█〓█(╯●Д●)シ! Ning Rongrong struggled, but her body didn't budge.

The little princess had never suffered such humiliation. Her face contorted as she glared at Zhuge Lan.
"You!"
"You're dead!"
"I'll mobilize all the power of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Even if you run to the ends of the earth, I'll hunt you down and kill you!"
Zhuge Lan looked at Ning Rongrong, who was grinding her teeth, with the gaze of someone looking at an idiot.
"You're an idiot, aren't you?"
"You're still under my control, and you're threatening me?"
"If this were a desperado, he'd rape you first, then kill you, and run for his life."
"Even if he was caught in the end, wouldn't you still be dead?"
[Mood Points +4999]
Ning Rongrong's eyes flickered with panic for a moment.
But she quickly calmed down.
"You dare?" Ning Rongrong raised her head, her voice high. "My father definitely sent people to follow me. If you dare to touch me, they'll kill you immediately!"
Zhuge Lan sighed.
He was a bit speechless, and he rubbed his forehead.
He knew Ning Rongrong's personality was awful, but he didn't realize she was this… dense.
He knew Ning Rongrong's background, yet he still acted without hesitation.
What else could this be but being fearless?
In the eyes of ordinary people, Zhuge Lan's background was at least not weaker than Ning Rongrong's.
Yet, you…
Ning Rongrong, however, didn't realize the problem and smiled triumphantly.
[Mood Points +2333]
"Scared and covering your head, right?" she said gleefully. "Now, let this lady go, and then kneel down and kowtow until I'm satisfied, and maybe I'll spare you."
Zhuge Lan rolled his eyes, ignoring Ning Rongrong.
[Mood Points +4444]
"Hey!" Ning Rongrong screamed. "Didn't you hear what this lady said? Do you really want to die!"
Zhuge Lan picked his ear, still ignoring her.
[Mood Points +4999]
"Good, good, good!" Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth. "You want to die, right? Come on! Kill this guy for me!"
A gust of wind swept through.
Silence. Nothing happened.
[Mood Points +5555]
Zhuge Lan had expected this.
Although Ning Fengzhi had arranged for people to follow Ning Rongrong on her departure,
he'd definitely instructed them not to appear unless her life was in danger, in order to correct her bad habits.
Moreover, Zhuge Lan's identity was also quite mysterious in the eyes of those people.
It's just a conflict between two juniors if they don't show themselves.
Once they appear and bully the weak…
Those people in the shadows will definitely come out too.
That would escalate into a clash between two forces!
So, any smart person would be best off playing dead right now.
—If there are any not-so-smart ones, then they can only be asked to die.
"What do you think you're doing?!"
Flender swooped in low to the ground again.
"This is the academy! Who gave you permission to fight?"
"Zhuge, let Ning Rongrong go first!"
He still had to give him some face.
Zhuge Lan put away Li Jing's longsword.
The first thing Ning Rongrong did after getting up was to kick at Zhuge Lan.
Zhuge Lan didn't even bother to dodge, directly summoning his Thorn Armor.
"Come on, hit me!"
