Chapter 146: Zeng Yi's Fan Club

...

As night fell, the Suotuo Arena was once again filled with bustling crowds from all directions.

At this moment, a team of eleven people attracted the attention of the crowd that was preparing to enter the arena. Among these eleven people, eight of them wore identical masks.

The masks worn by the eight people only covered the area above their noses. Their clothes varied in style, exuding a mysterious aura.

On the shoulder of a black-haired girl among them, sat a small silver and black striped cat.

"Hey, isn't that Zeng Yi, the Ronin Yi? Why is he wearing a mask?" One passerby recognized Zeng Yi's identity and exclaimed. Others soon realized it as well.

"Yeah! It's really the Ronin Yi. Look at the sword hanging from his waist."

"Wow! My idol! Ronin Brother! Look here!" A group of girls exclaimed in excitement, waving and shouting at Zeng Yi, resembling young fangirls meeting their favorite star.

"Ronin Brother looks even cooler with the mask on, exuding a mysterious aura."

"Are those people around Ronin Yi his companions?" someone asked, confused.

"Well, obviously! Can't you see they're all wearing the same mask?" another person scolded the one who asked the question.

"The companions of Ronin Yi must be extraordinary in strength. One Ronin Yi is enough to challenge anyone, and now there are seven more people like him. Looks like the Suotuo Arena is in for some big changes." One person sighed in admiration.

"It seems there will be a great show tonight."

The cries of surprise and whispers around them left the rest of the Shrek team stunned.

What kind of scene was this? They had agreed to be discreet and not let others know their identities. But now? It felt like a fan welcoming party!

The group of young, beautiful girls in short skirts made Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun envy them greatly.

These girls were calling out to Ronin Yi while holding various banners and signs with Zeng Yi's chibi image, along with messages expressing their love for him.

A living fangirl club!

The Shrek team was well aware of whose fans they were. Their gaze turned towards Zeng Yi in the team as they saw him facing the fangirls, smiling and waving to them.

"Wow, did you see that? My husband is smiling at me!" a girl exclaimed in excitement.

"Nonsense! Obviously, he's smiling at me!"

"Ronin Brother, show them your full power tonight!"

"Husband, good luck!"

Zeng Yi's responses to the fans' cheers made them even more excited. Their sweet voices grew louder, crashing like waves.

How could you all share one husband?

Listening to the wave-like cheers, the rest of the Shrek boys couldn't help but feel jealous and contorted their faces in disdain, staring at Zeng Yi, hoping for a satisfactory answer.

Otherwise, it would be necessary to have a good conversation in his room later at night.

"Uh, hehehe, don't look at me like that! After all, I've been mixing around for a month and gained a bit of fame myself." Zeng Yi turned around and saw that all seven of them were staring at him, laughing awkwardly.

"Just a bit of fame?" Dai Mubai was unhappy. Looking at the fan club, which now had over fifty girls, he couldn't help but want it for himself too.

"Well, if you can win a Soul Fight, you should have a similar situation. After all, you have good looks, just a little worse than mine."

Dai Mubai had nothing to say. He couldn't even imagine continuously winning in the Soul Arena. But thinking about it carefully, with Zeng Yi's strength, it wasn't surprising that he had such fame in the Arena. After all, as long as you had strength, you could gain fame and wealth here.

But after three months of hellish training, Dai Mubai now had great confidence in himself. As long as he didn't encounter Tang San or Zeng Yi, he would have almost no rivals in the Suotuo Arena at his Spirit Douluo realm.

By then, he would also have a group of young fangirls. Just the thought of it made his heart race!

Haha, hahaha.

Imagining the beautiful scenes in the future, a foolish smile appeared on Dai Mubai's face.

"Heh, there's even a group of female fans. Impressive!" Ning Rongrong said to Zeng Yi sarcastically, her tone filled with sourness.

"Heh, what can I do? Your martial uncle here is just that charming. Well, blame it on my handsome and outstanding appearance. It's normal for people to like me."

In response to Ning Rongrong's mockery, Zeng Yi even raised his bangs and said narcissistically.

"Ah, sometimes I also feel troubled about why I'm so outstanding. I have asked the heavens countless times why they made me so exceptional. But the heavens were left speechless by my excellence."

"This is the frustration and loneliness of a powerful individual, something you, an eternal slacker, will never understand!"

Saying that, Zeng Yi crossed his hands behind his back and sighed towards the sky.

"Ugh."

Seeing Zeng Yi acting like this, Ning Rongrong made a vomiting gesture, and the others also looked at Zeng Yi with disdain.

"Yi ge, aren't you supposed to be called the Swift Sword Master? Why do they call you Ronin Yi?" Ma Hongjun asked, confused. He now regarded Zeng Yi as his boss, the pendant hanging from his leg, and admired Zeng Yi greatly. Following a boss like this, he believed he could also achieve great fame in the Soul Arena. Just thinking about it made his mouth water.

"It's a nickname they gave me, I feel more comfortable with Ronin Yi then Swift Sword Master" Zeng Yi explained.

In fact, these fangirl clubs had been organized by Kali. She was the leader of Zeng Yi's fan support group. Zeng Yi's impressive performance in the Soul Arena, combined with his handsome appearance and a sense of freedom that resonated with many girls, had made them obsessed with him. As a result, Kali's fan club quickly expanded.

Because of this, the business at the Blue Swan Tavern also improved, and Kali made a lot of money.

Of course, it wasn't just a fan club for girls; there were also fan clubs for boys, led by Kas, the Wine Barrel.

Kali and Kas, the brother and sister, earned a significant income just by selling Zeng Yi's autographs.

Zeng Yi had no objections to this. After all, they were friends, and it didn't harm him. He tacitly agreed to Kali's actions.

The most important thing was to split the money evenly!

As for being in the spotlight, Zeng Yi wasn't worried at all. Were there people daring to harm him?

He was no longer the person he was before, with a great power backing him, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, one of the Three Great Schools, and his master, Sword Battle Douluo. Who could touch them without being moved?

So Zeng Yi found Master's advice about hiding their information unnecessary. Could a mere mask conceal their identities if someone really wanted to investigate?

Moreover, how many people could threaten them? They should think about the backgrounds behind these people.

Needless to say, Tang San had a father who was a Title Douluo.

Ning Rongrong, the successor of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the precious heart of two Title Douluos.

Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai both came from prestigious families.

Xiao Wu was even more so, her father-in-law being Tang San's father.

Oscar and Ma Hongjun's status was slightly inferior, but with the care of Flender, a Spirit Sage of the seventy-eighth rank, and the other teachers from Shrek, they were not much worse off than the others. How many advanced Spirit Sages were there in the entire Douluo Continent? At least, there were none in Suotuo City.

And also, Grandmaster, you are an ex-lover of the current Pope! So what are you all panicking about?

Looking at the rest of the Shrek team, Zeng Yi couldn't help but complain in his heart.
