Chapter 180 - 182 : Tang Hao Really Knows How to Have Fun
4 January
Wu Ling grinned triumphantly at her good sister Ning Rongrong, who stared back with a touch of wistful envy.
"Wu Ling, so your third soul skill can teleport an entire group? I thought it only worked on single targets!"
Ning Rongrong pouted in mild protest. In previous fights, Wu Ling had only ever teleported one person—who knew she could handle a whole group?
"Nyaa~ You lost, so admit it!"
Out in the stands, the audience fell into stunned silence.
What... what just happened? They had barely blinked: two girls surged forward, surrounded the seven opponents, and suddenly all seven appeared right in front of the Tianshui lineup.....then got knocked out with a single punch?
Sure, this was only a warm-up match, but did it have to end that quickly?
High on the VIP platform, Ning Fengzhi watched his daughter.....under Yuan Longxuan's guidance....master the Seven Aperture Exquisite Heart from the Nine Aperture Imperial Heart in record time. He could hardly contain his excitement.
Just a year ago, Ning Rongrong had only unlocked the third aperture.
Now she could simultaneously boost multiple teammates with two different enhancements!
The announcer, tasked with commentating the match, stood frozen for a long moment. He had only just called "begin," and now he had to call "end"?
This paycheck was almost too easy.
"Wow, Sister Yan is so strong! One punch and those sissies went flying!"
The little cat girl Jiang Jing couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Though Xue Ye felt a twinge of displeasure at her words, with Yuan Longxuan seated right there, he dared not show it.
Xue Ke, however, nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Even though my former third brother spent his days in brothels, slacking off, ignoring etiquette and manners.....his strength really is pathetic too!"
Xue Ke's remark carved two deep gashes into Xue Ye's already battered pride.
Ning Fengzhi turned to the former imperial princess with keen curiosity.
After all, he might doubt others, but the words of a former princess carried weight.
"Is that true? His strength is weak, but is his character really that deplorable?"
Jiang Jing's interest was piqued as well. Nobles everywhere were cut from the same cloth, yet she had heard little from her good sister about her old family.
"Mm-hmm! I've heard plenty from the palace maids—they all despised my former third brother.
I even saw him once, passed out in the imperial gardens with massive dark circles under his eyes!"
As Xue Ke spilled these juicy scandals, Ning Fengzhi—and even Gu Rong, watching invisibly from his spatial realm—could only sigh inwardly at the decadent chaos of the royal family.
Though Ning Fengzhi himself kept a few beautiful girls in secret for his own amusement, he had helped their families through financial crises, and they were all willing. In comparison, he felt like a proper gentleman.
Yuan Longxuan merely smiled at the revelations without comment. He wasn't some irredeemable villain, but he wasn't a saint either.
What business was it of his if others visited brothels or toyed with palace maids? That was their family affair.
As long as it didn't affect him, Yuan Longxuan couldn't be bothered with such nonsense.
As Xue Ke rattled off Xue Beng's misdeeds like amusing anecdotes, Emperor Xue Ye's face darkened progressively.
When he opened his mouth to stop her, a single glance from Yuan Longxuan snapped him back to clarity.
Xue Ye: Close call—I almost lost my head!
In truth, Xue Ye had only invited Yuan Longxuan as a polite formality...he never expected the man to actually show up, let alone bring his youngest daughter and the cat girl from the recent auction!
With the announcer declaring Tianshui Academy's victory, today's warm-up matches officially concluded.
By now, Xue Ke had shifted her gossip from Xue Beng straight to Xue Ye himself!
As the little princess he once doted on most, she held plenty of dirt on him.
Grinning mischievously, she turned her gaze to her "former father."
"Hey, white-bearded old man, I've got some juicy stories about you too. Want to hear them?"
Ning Fengzhi: !!!
Gu Rong: Holy crap!
Spirit Hall Bishop Salas (watching from hiding): Oh?
Jiang Jing: Whoa, fresh emperor gossip?
Yuan Longxuan: Tsk, this should be fun.
"Ahem—my dear daughter, you see, your father—"
Before he could finish, Xue Ke cut him off sharply.
"Old sir, please don't claim relations. My jerk of a dad kicked the bucket a year ago.
I'm just a poor little orphan who hides behind Brother Yuan Longxuan now."
With that, Xue Ye's already pale face visibly cycled through green, purple, and black.
[My dad died a year ago]
[Old sir]
[Don't claim relations]
[I'm just a poor little orphan]
