Chi Xiu noticed that not only were the people from the Plant Academy suspicious, but even his teammates were looking at him strangely.
"Excuse me, is there some misunderstanding? I'm not 0000,"
Chi Xiu quickly denied to Yao Zi.
Then he looked at his teammates: "What's wrong with you guys? Don't you know whether I'm 0000 or not?"
Ning Rongrong was the first to react, nodding and saying, "Our captain isn't 0000."
Xiao Wu immediately chimed in, "Yes, although we also really hope that the captain and 0000 are the same person..."
Sun Dabao suddenly interjected, deliberately showing off:
"But our captain knows 0000! They're very close!"
Yao Zi's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this, staring at Chi Xiu suspiciously:
"It should be 0000 herself, so she's trying to cover it up with a close friendship."
Chi Xiu was speechless.
You woman… I haven't even slept in your bed, did you really recognize me or what? "What grudge do you have against me? Why did you have to
come and expose me during dinner!
" "It's really not true.
"
"I don't believe you." "Believe it or not, it's up to you." "Could you simply release your martial soul?" "Why should I release it just because you tell me to? " "We all want to see, and you can use this opportunity to prove you're not true, isn't that good?" "Sorry, I never show my martial soul easily." "Isn't that the same as 0000?" Chi Xiu: "..." Just then, another girl jogged over from the Plant Academy. Another striking beauty, wearing black fishnet stockings under her green skirt, the clothing resembling green leaves clinging to her slender waist and pert breasts. Her exposed skin was fair and delicate, and a fresh, plant-like fragrance wafted from her. This girl skipped happily to Chi Xiu's side, leaning her upper body closer to him, her eyes sparkling. "Hello, my name is Mu Yunteng, and I admire you so much! Do you have a girlfriend?!" Mu Yunteng immediately adopted a lovesick expression, her eyes sparkling with admiration. Ning Rongrong couldn't contain herself at this sight: "Hey, stay away from him!" "Yunteng! Who asks these kinds of questions right off the bat like that?!" Yao Zi scolded, her face ashen. Yeah, yeah, I was startled too… Chi Xiu leaned back, suddenly realizing that this girl named Mu Yunteng had almost wanted to hug and kiss him. Although she was quite pretty, getting a kiss wouldn't be a bad deal… Yao Zi quickly pulled Mu Yunteng back, looking apologetically at the members of the Heavenly Dou Team. Mu Yunteng was still pitifully crying out, "0000, can you be a little gentler on us during the match, waaaaah—" Yao Zi quickly covered Mu Yunteng's mouth, then looked at Chi Xiu with a serious expression: "You just wait, Chi Xiu, even if we lose tomorrow, we'll force your martial soul out!" Chi Xiu: "..." After the commotion caused by the Plant Academy, almost everyone else in the tavern noticed the Heaven Dou team. In an instant, those who hated the Heaven Dou team and those who admired 0000 seemed to have found their target... After quickly finishing their meal, everyone quietly left the tavern and quickly returned to the Star Luo Royal Hotel. "Ugh—" "Eating so fast, I almost choked to death!" Sun Dabao lay on the sofa, looking shaken. Chi Xiu glanced at them and said, "We'll be challenging them tomorrow morning. Let's discuss our strategy now. You're all in charge of tomorrow's battle." "Captain!" Liu Dezhi called out from behind. Chi Xiu turned to look at him, puzzled, "What's wrong?" "What if even if we devise a strategy, we still... can't beat them?" "You have to believe in yourself." Chi Xiu chuckled as he said this, "Of course, if you can't beat them, leave it to me." Bai Niao watched quietly from the side, his expression enlightened.
This young captain truly exuded an incredibly strong sense of security.
For a moment, she felt a strange mix of emotions towards Chi Xiu.
...
Back in his room, Chi Xiu lay on the large bed.
The door was locked.
It seemed like he hadn't had a proper night's sleep in a long time. Chi Xiu exhaled, removed the mask from his face, revealing long eyelashes covering a pair of eyes even more beautiful than a woman's.
He closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep within seconds.
The long night passed.
When he opened his eyes, Chi Xiu was lying on a narrow, yet incredibly soft bed.
The familiar scent of plants filled the air.
Chi Xiu turned his head and suddenly saw a delicate, beautiful face.
Mu Yun Teng!
Good heavens!
Chi Xiu's gaze shifted downwards, and he froze instantly.
The two were in the same bed.
But the woman next to him wasn't wearing any clothes...
Holy crap! Naked!
This woman was definitely not simple!
The white, bare body so close to him, mixed with the scent of plants, gave Chi Xiu a strange feeling for a moment.
He immediately turned his head, his mouth dry, and surveyed his surroundings.
This seemed to be… a girls' dormitory.
"Gulp!"
Chi Xiu swallowed hard, because he saw another girl sleeping soundly on the opposite bed.
It was Yao Zi, the captain of the Plant Academy team.
The bed was a bit small, there was no way to hide, let alone with another person in the room. He should hurry up and get out of there.
Chi Xiu was about to touch Mu Yun Teng when the guy rolled over and hugged him tightly…
"0000, be my boyfriend…"
Mu Yun Teng held Chi Xiu tightly, murmuring in his sleep, a smile on his lips.
So white, so soft, so fragrant…
Chi Xiu struggled to pull his arm away, not knowing what he touched in the process, only that it felt nice.
Fortunately, Mu Yun Teng didn't wake up, he was just talking in his sleep.
It should count as a successful contact, Chi Xiu quietly waited for the teleportation time.
At this moment, his gaze fell on a small notebook on the bedside table.
It seemed to be a diary.
Chi Xiu opened it with a puzzled look and turned to the latest page.
"I saw 0000 today! I'm so happy!"
"This is the happiest thing that happened this month!"
"But he won't admit it, though he can't hide it from me."
"I already firmly memorized 0000's figure during the masquerade social event, I can't be wrong."
"The captain said that even if we lose tomorrow, we have to force 0000's martial soul to be revealed to everyone, although I really agree with this approach..."
"But he's 0000! I'm a little hesitant to do it." "
..."
The rest was all the little thoughts of a girl with a crush, and even Chi Xiu, a man, blushed as he read it.
He glanced at it quickly and put the diary back on the bedside table.
He actually likes me that much?
Chi Xiu knew that half of the male soul masters at the masquerade social event gave roses to female soul masters, and almost all of the female soul masters gave roses to him.
Now it seems that among these three thousand-plus bouquets of roses, there might be one for Mu Yunteng too.
Chi Xiu smiled, considering that Mu Yunteng liked him so much and was quite good-looking.
He reached out and hugged Mu Yunteng's smooth, delicate back, kissing her fair cheek.
Just after the kiss, Mu Yunteng groggily opened her eyes.
Chi Xiu's expression instantly turned alert, but thankfully he was teleported back the next second.
Mu Yunteng fully opened her eyes, touched her cheek in confusion, then rolled over and went back to sleep.
...
The second round of the challenge officially begins!
