Chapter 246.

Chapter 246.

As for the other two teams, Wang Feng also paid attention. The Beast Academy posed little challenge for him. His body was already immune to most toxins after his was tempered by the Red Lotus Karmic Fire. Tang San was in a similar situation. Facing the Beast Academy, their combat effectiveness was naturally weakened by 20%.

But it wasn't enough.

Wang Feng was even less afraid of the Storm Blood Academy. For a team that relied on brute force, he didn't need to bring out his full abilities. He could take them down with the Armored Black Thorns in one go.

After watching the games, Wang Feng felt a bit emotional. He then changed his clothes and headed to Tang San and his team's residence.

Inside the house, a discussion was in full swing.

"Fatty, you're so strong! Taking down five opponents by yourself!" Oscar's voice rang out.

"How are we going to deal with the Shadow Academy? It's up to the third brother, we can't do much!" Ma Hongjun's laughter followed.

"Thankfully, today Jiu Yikai exposed –Zhao Ying's secret, otherwise, we might have been in trouble!" Dai Mubai's voice could be heard.

Wang Feng also noticed Grandmaster standing at the door.

"These academies are no joke," Grandmaster said quietly as Wang Feng approached. 

"Thank goodness you encountered Zhao Ying today. Otherwise, they would have been really difficult to deal with."

Wang Feng shook his head, thinking there must be a solution, but it might not be what he expected.

"Right–, where's Xiao San?" Wang Feng asked.

He stood at the door for a while but didn't hear Tang San's voice.

"The Huo Wu from the Blazing Academy took him out," Grandmaster said. 

"The girl was overwhelmed with anger during the match two days ago. Not only did she hurt Tang San, but she also hurt herself, so she should have come to apologize."

Upon hearing this, Wang Feng was a little surprised. He remembered that Huo Wu didn't harbor a strong grudge against Tang San like in the original book, so she had no reason to do so.

Was it possible that because she hadn't defeated him, she vented all her anger on Tang San?

If that was the case... it was unfair.

After chatting with Grandmaster for a while, Wang Feng saw Tang San hurrying back.

"Brother Feng! Why are you here?" Tang San's surprised shout made everyone in the room rush out quickly.

"Are you here just to see us?" Tang San smiled and asked.

Before coming, Grandmaster had said that Wang Feng wouldn't participate in the promotion match, so they had to find a way to deal with it.

"Yeah, I heard you got injured. I came to check on you. How are you feeling?" Wang Feng coughed a few times. Then, he lowered his voice, "Xiao San, you smell like a girl, be careful..."

Hearing this, Tang San was stunned.

At that moment, Xiao Wu approached, sniffed suspiciously, then walked closer to Tang San. She whispered, "Brother, why do you smell like a girl?"

Xiao Wu's expression changed suddenly, "Is it that Huo Wu from earlier? Come, let's talk over here!"

With that, Xiao Wu led Tang San away.

"Tsk tsk, Third Brother, it's not always a blessing to accept the favors of beautiful people."

Ma Hongjun watched and smiled, "I told you, Captain, but you didn't come. This promotion match is not any less exciting than the team match. I just defeated everyone in the Green Garden Academy. This is the first time I've had such a long practice. It's so cool!"

Wang Feng smiled and replied, "Just don't overdo it. Next time you face a plant type soul master with fire resistance, your phoenix might end up being tied as a turkey."

Ma Hongjun: "..."

"Wang Feng, how long have you been here? Did you see us finish?" Ning Rongrong unknowingly walked to Wang Feng's side and said happily, "I'm so bored and I can't participate... Although it's wonderful to watch. Oscar and I have been hiding in the back for a long time, and Oscar even got to play once."

After speaking, she sounded a bit aggrieved.

"Doesn't really suit you, huh?" Wang Feng said, "Since when have you been so eager for a fight? Aren't you the type who can lie down and never stand up again?"

"After lying down for a long time, don't you want to stand up?" Ning Rongrong smiled and said, "Why don't you have a fight with me?"

Wang Feng glared at her.

Of course, Ning Rongrong knew what Wang Feng was thinking. She just wanted to have a private chat with him.

"I just came to check on you and ask about your progress," Wang Feng said, shaking his head.

"Hmph," Ning Rongrong huffed, pursing her lips.

"Our progress is quite good," Dai Mubai chimed in with a smile, "Currently, we've achieved a complete victory. Tang San sustained some injuries, but considering the circumstances, it's worth it. Tomorrow, we'll be facing Shadow Academy. Fortunately, we got a heads up from Jiu Yikai, or rather, he had helped everyone uncover the secret of the Shadow Academy's captain."

"Tomorrow should be easier," Wang Feng nodded slightly. Although Zhao Ying is formidable, if they already know the secret of his martial soul, they will be prepared, making it challenging. Still, he is quite strong, given his soul bone.

"It seems like a threat to us. Only Purple Star Academy, and Godwind Academy should be our true contenders," Oscar added.

Skywater Academy isn't in the picture, especially not in one-on-one battles.

Thankfully, Skywater Academy has a ridiculously strong team, so they were able to defeat Shrek in team battle.

But in one-on-one battles, they're very weak.

Their strengths need to be fully utilized in icy and snowy environments with ice crystal terrains.

In such personal battles, only Shui Binger is exceptionally strong.

However, she's strong alone and can't use her fourth soul ability–.

So the only real threat is Godwind Academy. Wang Feng secretly regretted that Thunderclap Academy, as in the original book, was ousted by Purple Star Academy where he belonged. However, Wang Feng speculated that Xiao San and the others might not actually come to challenge him. Frankly, it's not difficult for them to win against the younger students due to the strength of the Jiu Yikai–. Moreover, in one-on-one battles, they're not opponents.

"Why don't you spar with me?" Zhu Zhuqing approached and suggested.

"Okay?" Ning Rongrong glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, a spark of interest igniting in her eyes.

Wang Feng paused, then shook his head. "After the match, there are still Xiao –San, Mu Bai, and Xiao Wu. You won't get many chances to play. The most important thing is to conserve your energy."

"Oh," Zhu Zhuqing replied, her gaze shifting as she looked at Wang Feng.

Ning Rongrong let out a sigh of relief.

The group chatted for a while. Tang San and Xiao Wu walked together, though they seemed distant from each other, both flushed. Tang San, in particular, appeared somewhat absent-–minded, not even noticing the stones under his feet as he walked.

Xiao Wu approached and quickly led Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing to another room.

"I say, Third Brother, why are you looking so down?" Ma Hongjun's eyes rolled mischievously, "Did you just...commit…"

"No!" Tang San interrupted hastily, blushing and shaking his head, "Nothing happened between us!"

"..." Wang Feng.

It seems even Xiao San is a novice in love, with no experience at all. Is it his first time, even after living two lives?

"Is it love?" Wang Feng suddenly approached and asked.

"Brother Feng, how did you..." Tang San began, then caught himself and shook his head, "No, there's really nothing."

Wang Feng sighed, "Little San, the blush on your face says otherwise."

"..." Tang San.

There's no need to explain. Wang Feng probably figured it out. It's likely that Xiao Wu initiated whatever happened between Tang San and her just now.

It must have been a kiss.

But breaking through this barrier might be a good thing for Tang San and Xiao Wu.

Inside the house.

"Oh, Xiao Wu, what's wrong? Your face is so red?" Ning Rongrong touched Xiao Wu's cheek and noticed she was unusually warm, "Are you feeling sick?"

"No!" Xiao Wu pouted.

Ning Rongrong's eyes sparkled with mischief, "You didn't do anything naughty with your Third Brother, did you?"

Her words made Xiao Wu's face even redder.

Zhu Zhuqing, standing nearby, also glanced at Xiao Wu.

"It's nothing to be ashamed of," Xiao Wu said, twitching slightly.

"What is it? Are you jealous because third brother went out with that Huo Wu just now?" Ning Rongrong smiled.

Xiao Wu snorted before recounting the story. In reality, nothing really happened. Huo Wu simply apologized because Tang San helped her up when she almost fell due to her injury.

"That's it?" Ning Rongrong shook her head.

"It's not just that!" Xiao Wu squatted down and muttered softly, "I think Huo Wu has her eyes on Brother! Maybe she deliberately fell, hoping to use the chance to seduce him! Just in case, I..."

"You ate your brother?" Ning Rongrong interrupted.

Xiao Wu slapped Ning Rongrong playfully, "No, it's just..."

With that, Xiao Wu glanced around, then pulled Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing closer, "I kissed Tang San. It was his first kiss. I can't let anyone else take that away!"

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had different reactions.

Ning Rongrong's face flushed slightly as she suddenly remembered the night when she and the group had defeated the Emperor Team at the Suotuo Great Fighting Soul Arena. Taking advantage of everyone being tipsy and asleep, she had kissed Wang Feng. But only on the cheek.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes also showed a hint of shyness. 

'No, I can't let Wang Feng's first kiss be stolen by anyone else.'
