Chapter 2946: Changing Opinions_1

Having listened to these words, Xu Sheng pursed his lips and said in a calm tone, "Is that so? But that's a hurdle he must overcome; otherwise, he will never be able to grow!"

Dugu Yan's eyes filled with anger, and her tone became sharp, "Who do you think you are? What right do you have to say that? I have seen how hard Tian Heng works when he practices!"

Even though she was barely a few years older than Xu Sheng, she spoke with such a mature tone!

Flame, who was eavesdropping, wore a strange expression and nudged Evil Moon with her elbow, whispering, "Hey, Evil Moon, something feels off. Dugu Yan came to the Pope Hall to find Xu Sheng, but it doesn't seem like what we imagined."

The latter nodded slightly, "Didn't Dugu Yan just say it? She came to settle accounts with Xu Sheng, but… who is this Yu Tianheng? Does he have a grudge against Xu Sheng?"

It sounded like Xu Sheng had defeated that Yu Tianheng, causing his state of mind to have issues...

"Yu Tianheng? I think I heard the teacher mention him; he should be from the Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan!"

The sudden interjection from Hulena startled both of them...

However, Evil Moon quickly started to analyze seriously, "The Blue Electric Overlord Dragon Clan? No wonder, the people of this clan are always proud and look down on other civilian Soul Masters!"

"If they suffer a bitter defeat in battle, their state of mind will indeed have issues!"

Hulena placed her index finger in front of her lips, "Shh... Brother, let's quiet down and keep listening!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng looked directly into Dugu Yan's dark green pupils and slowly said, "Dugu Yan, if you really want to help Yu Tianheng, you shouldn't come to the Pope Hall to settle accounts with me; you should leave this opportunity for him to seize by himself!"

"Only if he wins a battle on his own will he become stronger!"

Dugu Yan's pupils dilated slightly, and the next second, she slowly bowed her head...

"But, how can Tian Heng... how can he possibly defeat you..."

The scene in the soul fighting arena, she still remembered it very clearly!

Xu Sheng had easily defeated Yu Tianheng without even using his Martial Soul!!

Xu Sheng couldn't help but smile, extending his hand to her shoulder and soothingly said, "As long as we are alive, nothing is impossible, right?"

After speaking, he quickly let go...

Then, he turned his gaze towards Evil Moon and the others behind, jokingly saying, "There's no need to secretly listen to our conversation; when there's time, I'll tell everyone about this!"

In an instant, the three faces of Evil Moon and the others bore a chagrined expression...

It was as expected of a Titled Douluo to be able to detect them eavesdropping in secret...

Fortunately, Dugu Yan did not make a bigger scene like Ning Rongrong had done!

...

Du Gu Bo, who was waiting outside, was obviously growing impatient, pacing back and forth...

He muttered to himself, "Why hasn't Yan Zi come out yet, it's almost been half an hour!!"

If she was settling accounts with that Xu Sheng, it shouldn't take this long, right?

Suddenly, Yueguan spoke out of the blue, "Old poison, what's the rush?? Your granddaughter might not even come out today!"

That tone made Du Gu Bo cast him a dangerous look, "Chrysanthemum Guan, what do you mean by that? Don't tell me Yan Zi has been..."

Damn it, he really shouldn't have let Yan Zi enter the academy alone, should he?

Yueguan shrugged his shoulders, "Old poison, don't falsely accuse me, I don't have such intentions!"

"However, your granddaughter might have been attracted by Xu Sheng's charm and fallen for him!"

Du Gu Bo's eyes widened in anger as he retorted, "Nonsense! Yan Zi already has someone she likes. How could she be attracted to that Xu Sheng after just one simple meeting!"

The corners of Yueguan's mouth curled up, "Hehe, why don't we make a bet??"

Du Gu Bo crossed his arms, "A bet?? Let's hear it!"

Without hesitation, Yueguan continued, "If your granddaughter falls for Xu Sheng, then from now on, whenever you see me, you must address me as Elder Ju!"

Just thinking about being addressed that way in public filled his heart with joy!

Du Gu Bo decisively rejected the idea, "Impossible! Yan Zi is not a fickle child!"

Yueguan couldn't help but mock, "Heh... You'd have to see it with your own eyes to believe it."

"In a word, do you dare to bet?"

Du Gu Bo took a deep breath and sneered, "Let's bet then. If Yan Zi hasn't fallen for that Xu Sheng you mentioned, then whenever you see me, you'll have to call me Elder Du Gu!"

Although the stake was rather trivial, the prospect of seeing the other party humbled made the trip worthwhile!

Who knew, Yueguan decisively responded, "Deal, follow me!"

Du Gu Bo was stunned, "Where to??"

Yueguan raised an eyebrow, "Of course, to enter the academy. Waiting here won't yield answers!"

Du Gu Bo was slightly astonished, "Chrysanthemum Guan, haven't you always been afraid that I'd lay a hand on the members of the Golden Generation?"

"You're really willing to let me in??"

Yueguan scoffed, "Come on, if you, this old poison, really had such intentions, you probably wouldn't have wasted so much patience here!"

Du Gu Bo turned to the side, "It seems you see right through me!"

If he really wanted to kill the members of the Golden Generation, he didn't need to enter the academy to do it.

After this exchange, the two stepped into the academy...

The first thing that caught their eyes was Dugu Yan standing there, her gaze complex as she stared at Xu Sheng's back...

Yueguan was quite smug, "Old poison, see for yourself, I should have won this bet!"

Du Gu Bo glared at him, retorting, "That's not necessarily true. This doesn't prove that Yan Zi is interested in that Xu Sheng!"

But indeed, one point was irrefutable, Xu Sheng's appearance could certainly elicit favorable impressions from the opposite sex!

Yueguan, not the least bit anxious, suggested, "Is that so? Why don't you go and ask her yourself?"

But no sooner had he spoken than Dugu Yan, who had been standing there, suddenly mustered her courage...

She walked straight up to Xu Sheng, who was talking with Evil Moon and others...

And said with utmost sincerity, "Xu Sheng, thank you. I think I understand what you said before!"

Xu Sheng also stopped what he was doing and replied with a smile, "It's good that you understand. Pope Hall is not suited for you, go back!"

Dugu Yan's cheeks flushed with color, "Mm..."

Was Xu Sheng always such a tender person?

She had always been swayed by Tian Heng's influence and never properly scrutinized him...

Thinking about it now, it was utterly ridiculous...

Meanwhile, Du Gu Bo, who witnessed this scene, had stiffened...

That expression on Yan Zi's face, if not bashful, then what was it??

He hadn't expected her to actually fall for that Xu Sheng...

Really... Yueguan had guessed right...
