"Crying?"
Yun Chuan looked at Ning Rongrong in this state and inwardly thought kawaii, yet outwardly he spoke coldly, "What's there to cry about? Who do you think you are? Without the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda Sect, you're just a slightly prettier little girl. Right now, you could be hiding in some corner. You have talent, you have a background, but you don't work hard and only know how to enjoy yourself. Fine, you have choices—you can do as you like. But since you came to Shrek Academy, you must abide by its rules!"
"This isn't your Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda!" Yun Chuan said lightly. "The Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda is the continent's top support-type Soul Master sect, yet you're bringing it shame. Do you realize that?"
"I'm not!" Ning Rongrong felt both anger and urgency. After all, she was only a twelve-year-old girl. The Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda was her sect's pride—it was also her pride!
"Not? Then tell me, in this academy, among seven students, who can you compare to?" Yun Chuan sneered. "Tang San and Xiao Wu—their soul power levels are higher than yours, and their combat experience far surpasses yours. And Dai Mubai? At thirteen, he was already a level thirty Soul Master. Can you do that?"
"Ma Hongjun has a top-tier Beast Soul. Even with flaws, his soul power is now level twenty-seven!"
"Zhu Zhuqing—her soul power is only slightly higher than yours, but her will is firm. If she's asked to run twenty laps, let alone twenty, even a hundred laps, she would finish them all. Can you do that?"
Ning Rongrong's chest heaved with frustration.
"I'm a support-type Soul Master! How can I compete with them!" she said, forcing back tears and making excuses for herself. "On the battlefield, my contribution can surpass theirs!"
"That's right, what you said makes sense!" Yun Chuan did not deny it, instead nodding in approval. But then his tone shifted. "But now I'll tell you another truth: on the battlefield, only the living can provide support to their teammates!"
He looked at Ning Rongrong with a hint of disdain. "With your personality, if someone tries to kill you on the battlefield, do you think you can escape? With your reckless, arrogant nature, can you find teammates who genuinely protect you and let you confidently release your soul techniques? You can't! So you will be abandoned, and in the end, killed by the enemy!"
"No… what about Oscar? I should be able to beat him, right?" Ning Rongrong wiped her tears and clutched at this lifeline.
"Sorry, I heard from the principal that Oscar may be the most talented among you," Yun Chuan said, unable to hide a smile as he ruthlessly crushed Ning Rongrong's last shred of hope. "He's an innate full soul-power Food-type Soul Master. Have you ever seen anyone like that?"
"…"
Ning Rongrong stared blankly at Yun Chuan.
Although she did not want to believe it, she knew as a teacher, Tang Chuan would not lie. As a support-type Soul Master, Ning Rongrong had always considered herself separate from combat Soul Masters, not even thinking to compare. But now, hearing this, a chilling feeling spread in her heart, nearly leaving her in despair.
Even Oscar is stronger than me!
Food-type Soul Masters are extremely hard to improve. An innate full soul-power one had never been seen before!
Yun Chuan had mercilessly torn away her last covering of comfort.
With a wail, Ning Rongrong could no longer endure and ran back.
"Tang Chuan, I hate you!" a voice broke out, tinged with sobs.
Seeing the little girl covering her face and crying from his blow, Yun Chuan felt a little embarrassed. But this was exactly the kind of hardship Ning Rongrong needed to experience to grow.
Besides, no one else was around—only the two of them. If this happened in the evening with everyone watching, her embarrassment would be far greater.
In a sense, Yun Chuan was actually helping her.
Of course, he wouldn't deny that part of the reason he was doing this was to increase his own favorability. After all, having read the original story, he had a certain fondness for the original characters, especially the female ones. They were like the ideal "waifu" of a gamer.
And finally being transported into a fantasy world, meeting these waifus turned real—who wouldn't be tempted?
Yun Chuan didn't know about others, but he knew for himself—he was certainly tempted. He admitted he desired them physically; he was a lecher! That's why when he set stats at birth, he maxed charm. Otherwise, how could he have a face attractive enough to pick up girls?
…
Yun Chuan leisurely walked back to the academy and happened to encounter Oscar still running laps. A thought suddenly occurred to him.
"Hello, Teacher Tang." Oscar nodded politely as he passed Yun Chuan while running.
"Oscar, wait a moment," Yun Chuan suddenly said.
"Huff… what's up… is there something, Teacher Tang?" Oscar stopped, slightly panting.
"Do you have feelings for Ning Rongrong?" Yun Chuan asked directly.
Oscar's face turned red. Scratching his head, he awkwardly said, "Well… she's a beautiful and gentle lady… a gentleman should pursue the right match, hehe." Then he laughed foolishly.
Yun Chuan felt a pang of emotion. What a pure boy. Breaking up his potential romance felt a little uncomfortable. But uncomfortable or not, when it came to eliminating a rival, he would show no mercy.
"Oscar, do you know Ning Rongrong's background?" Yun Chuan asked suddenly.
"Yes, she's from the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda Sect. Why, Teacher Tang?" Oscar nodded, then asked curiously.
"Nothing, I just want to tell you: as the continent's top support sect, the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda has an unwritten rule. No matter male or female, your spouse must be a combat-type Soul Master!" Yun Chuan said expressionlessly. "Because support Soul Masters have no attack power, only a combat Soul Master partner can properly protect them. Hence this rule exists."
"Her spouse must be a combat Soul Master?" Oscar froze, as if struck by lightning. He wasn't stupid—he knew what this meant. He was a Food-type Soul Master, which meant he could never match her standards.
"…Teacher, why are you telling me this?" Oscar lowered his head in disappointment.
"Sigh, it's for your own good," Yun Chuan said with a sympathetic sigh. "You and her are destined to have no future. I'm telling you now so you can withdraw early, rather than sinking deeper. Otherwise, the only one who will get hurt in the end is you. This benefits neither you nor her. Understand?"
"…"
Oscar was silent for a long while, then exhaled, lifted his head, and feigned nonchalance. "I understand. Thank you for telling me, Teacher. I know what to do."
"Hmm, a teachable child," Yun Chuan nodded with satisfaction. He had successfully crushed this potential rival in love at the very beginning!
At this point, Oscar only had a slight interest in Ning Rongrong and hadn't made any moves yet. By telling him she would only marry a combat-type Soul Master, Yun Chuan effectively ended his hopes. If they had been in love already, he might fight to the death for her. But now, with only Oscar's unilateral feelings, he would continue faithfully on the support Soul Master path, keeping his distance from Ning Rongrong to avoid any ambiguous situations.
This move by Yun Chuan was ruthless—he crushed the possibility of romance at its very inception.
After dealing with Oscar, Yun Chuan waved him on to continue running and slowly made his way toward the girls' dormitory.
At this time, the girls' dormitory doors were tightly closed.
"Knock, knock!"
Yun Chuan politely knocked.
Footsteps were soon heard inside.
Click. The door opened.
"Teacher Tang, what's the matter?" Xiao Wu stood at the dormitory entrance, looking puzzled.
"Is Ning Rongrong inside?" Yun Chuan asked.
"She is," Xiao Wu replied. "Rongrong suddenly came back crying, and no matter what I said, she wouldn't answer me."
"Oh, nothing. She fell while running and got hurt. I have healing, so I came to help her recover," Yun Chuan said calmly, not mentioning that he had tripped her on purpose.
"I see. Then please help Rongrong heal quickly—she's been crying for a long time." Xiao Wu pointed into the dormitory, where muffled sobs could still be heard.
"No problem. She'll be fine soon." Yun Chuan smiled and entered the girls' dormitory. Compared to the boys' dormitory, this place was much better; each girl had her own room. He quickly found Ning Rongrong's room, as faint sobbing came from within.
Without hesitation, Yun Chuan gently opened the door and quietly stepped inside. He saw Ning Rongrong buried under the covers on her bed, only her quiet sobs audible.
Thinking for a moment, Yun Chuan reached into his soul guidance device and produced a delicate small cake. Once it was out, a sweet aroma filled the room.
Girls had no resistance to sweets. Soon, the scent reached under the covers. Ning Rongrong peeked her head out. Seeing Yun Chuan smiling at her, her expression instantly changed.
"Go away! I don't want to see you!" Ning Rongrong shouted, her small chest rising and falling rapidly, emotions agitated.
Yun Chuan said nothing, knowing it was best to give her a moment alone. He quietly placed the tempting small cake on the table, then turned and left the room.
Earlier at breakfast, he noticed the young mistress hadn't eaten much because she didn't like the food. Luckily, he still had the small cake from Soto City in his soul guidance device, so he used it to win her favor.
Everything was part of the plan!
