Chapter 39: Everyone's Misunderstanding.
"Hahaha, not bad, that's enough."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Mo and Ma Hongjun exchanged a glance, then immediately stopped and retracted their spirits.
Seeing this, Tang San also lowered his guard, and the tense atmosphere suddenly eased.
Zhao Wuji stepped forward, arms folded across his chest, and laughed heartily: "According to my rules, although you didn't win the fourth level of the test, this level isn't about winning or losing. The four of you have passed the actual combat and can be said to have passed. Congratulations."
Tang San and the other three breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Tang San, in particular, felt that if he, Xuan Mo, and Ma Hongjun continued to fight, the balance of victory would be almost 90% on their side.
In Tang San's view, the spirit fusion technique was their ultimate killer move. Therefore, facing a situation like that, even with his hidden weapons, the pressure was still immense.
Zhao Wuji clapped his hands in satisfaction. "That old ghost, Flender, will be ecstatic this time, four little monsters. Xiaobai, you, Xiao Ao, come and restore their spirit power, then quickly arrange for these four little monsters to settle down in the dormitories. As for Mo brat, after you two have recovered your spirit power, you two will continue to preside over the fourth level of the exam."
"Mo brat, I promise I didn't make things difficult for them. Bring me the two jugs of wine we promised you," he said, and asked Xuan Mo for them.
Zhao Wuji, with a touch of tact, hinted to Tang San and the others that he had held back because of Xuan Mo's efforts, which indirectly earned Xuan Mo's favor.
After accepting the wine, he turned and left without a glance back.
Meanwhile, Dai Mubai hurriedly shouted, "Oscar, Oscar, come here quickly. You have business to attend to."
This voice, fueled by spirit power, was likely heard by everyone within the academy.
"Where's the business? Where's the business?"
Oscar's distinctive soft voice, tinged with excitement, came closer from afar, and soon, he appeared before everyone's eyes.
"Xiao Ao, come here,"
Dai Mubai called to him.
Oscar hurried over, "Dai Laobai, you called me? Where's the business?"
"Xiao Ao, just bring out some big sausages. It's just that we've used a lot of soul power, but otherwise, it's nothing." Oscar was delighted to hear Xuan Mo's words. "Five copper soul coins each, and don't forget to pay me at the end. I have a big sausage."
In his strange soul spell, a light flashed in his hand, and a fragrant sausage suddenly appeared. He then handed it to everyone.
Dai Mubai winked at Tang San, "Eat it. Although this guy's words may be a bit disgusting, his sausage is indeed very effective. This is the sausage attached to the first soul ring, which can accelerate the recovery of physical injuries."
Just as Tang San and the others were about to refuse.
"If you don't eat now, you'll have to eat eventually. Besides, it's just a word, no big deal."
Hearing this, Tang San and the others turned to look at Xuan Mo.
At this moment, Xiao Wu couldn't help but retort, "How can it be no big deal? Just hearing that makes me sick."
Xuan Mo didn't say anything, simply shaking his head, taking the sausage and eating it, then recovering his spirit power.
However, Tang San was the only one who remained thoughtful in the end. After taking the sausage and eating it, he immediately sat cross-legged, practicing Qigong and regulating his breathing. As for the other girls, they refused to eat at all costs...
Finally, as Dai Mubai and Oscar led the others away, Ning Rongrong ran to Xuan Mo's side.
"Hey, I want an explanation. I've been waiting for almost three years."
Upon hearing this, Xuan Mo felt a wave of gossipy eyes swirling around him, even a heartbreaking sound.
Xuan Mo's heart sank, but seeing the hint of a seductive smile on Ning Rongrong's face, he knew she was doing it on purpose.
Helpless, facing the stares, he could only send them all away.
Watching them leave, he knew he'd been completely misunderstood as a scumbag who'd abandoned his wife.
Xuan Mo, however, felt deeply wronged. He'd never been in a relationship in his past or present lives, so how could he be considered a scumbag?
Then, with a gloomy expression on his face, he turned around to find Ma Hongjun gazing at him with a lewd expression.
"Fatty, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Oh, Brother Mo. You're such a hidden talent, you've actually hooked up with someone."
Ma Hongjun looked at Xuan Mo, his eyebrows raised. "Don't forget to save some soup for me, brother."
Xuan Mo, infuriated, kicked Ma Hongjun's fat butt.
"Get out! Get as far away as you can."
"Okay. But Brother Mo, you don't need to help me."
"No, I don't think anyone will come next time."
...
In the evening, with Shrek's enrollment closing, Xuan Mo, carrying his wine gourd, returned to his dorm.
After all, tomorrow is the start of the Shrek Academy semester, and they have to entertain this year's freshmen, so they have to get some rest early.
After returning to the dormitory, Xuan Mo saw Ma Hongjun half-lying on the bed with a chicken leg in his hand, looking quite relaxed.
When he heard the noise, he looked up and saw Xuan Mo had returned. He asked, "Brother Mo, how are things going? Are there any more strange new students?"
"Fatty, you seem to be feeling comfortable, quite relaxed. As for new students, do you think there will be more?"
Xuan Mo scolded him with a laugh, then asked back.
"That's right. Four this year is pretty good."
But then, as if something occurred to Ma Hongjun, his brows furrowed. "Brother Mo, I think I heard the teachers say that the academy won't be able to hold on after teaching our class.
"Xuan Mo couldn't help but chuckle at this. "Don't worry about that. We'll sort it out. Don't forget who we met in Tiandou City."
"Brother Mo, you mean..."
"Okay, don't worry. Go to bed early."
Xuan Mo chuckled, washed up, cultivated his soul power, and then lay down to rest.
...
The next morning.
Xuan Mo was awakened by his biological clock around four o'clock. Running every morning had become a daily routine for him.
Seeing Ma Hongjun still sound asleep nearby, he woke him up and dragged him along. After all, ever since Ma Hongjun's spirit awakened, he'd been up almost as long as Xuan Mo was up.
Afterward, the two of them packed up, grabbed their weights, and headed outside the academy, running around the village.
They waited until the sun rose before returning to the dormitory and heading to the cafeteria.
