Capítulo 132: Chapter 132: Strengthening the Shrek Ten Devils
"What? Zhuqing has fallen for me?"
"And she likes me wholeheartedly, without reservation?"
"This doesn't make sense. Because of the system, I'm not much different from the playboy image of Dai Mubai. And she knows about my relationship with Xiao Wu. No matter what, I won't leave my Xiao Wu. If that's the case, is she willing to share a husband with others?"
Mu Chen was full of doubt, looking at Zhu Zhuqing with puzzlement.
To gain the approval of the Yearning Heartbroken Red, one must love their partner selflessly, without any distractions. Otherwise, even the slightest distraction in the heart would prevent one from gaining its approval.
Yet, Zhu Zhuqing had received that approval.
What does this mean?
It means Zhu Zhuqing would even sacrifice her life for her partner!
*Sigh~*
Mu Chen was deeply moved by Zhu Zhuqing. Thinking about it, his heart couldn't help but be touched profoundly!
"But seriously, when did Zhuqing fall in love with me?"
"Was it when I used the Thousand-Year Kill on her?"
"Or when I taught her the Wind God Leg?"
...
As Mu Chen pondered, he realized he would have to wait for the right moment to ask Zhu Zhuqing directly to solve this mystery.
"Boss Mu, there's still a lot of celestial herbs here. How about you arrange the herbs for Jiangzhu, Teacher Erlong, Meng Yiran, Dugu Yan, and Princess Xue Ke?" Tang San suggested in a negotiating tone with Mu Chen.
Tang San was smart, very smart. With his keen eyes, he naturally noticed the ambiguous relationships Jiangzhu, Meng Yiran, Dugu Yan, Princess Xue Ke, and Liu Erlong had with Mu Chen. Tang San knew what celestial herbs these ladies needed, but since he was giving gifts to five beauties, it was best for Mu Chen to choose.
"Alright." Mu Chen nodded, scanning Flender, Zhao Wuji, Shao Xin, Lu Qibin, and Li Yusong.
Joining them in Dugu Bo's medicinal garden were Flender, Zhao Wuji, Shao Xin, Lu Qibin, and Li Yusong. Tang San helped them each choose a different celestial herb according to their martial souls.
Mu Chen then turned his gaze to Jiangzhu, Liu Erlong, Meng Yiran, Dugu Yan, and Princess Xue Ke. Jiangzhu's martial soul was the Healing Staff; Liu Erlong's was the mutated Fire Dragon from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon; Meng Yiran's was the Snake Spear Staff; Dugu Yan's was the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor; Princess Xue Ke's was the Golden Swan.
Mu Chen closed his eyes for a moment, and when he opened them, his Sharingan appeared, scanning nearly all the celestial herbs in the cave.
*Whoosh*
With a light tap of his toe, Mu Chen began leaping among the celestial herbs, picking one each time. When he returned to the five ladies, he held four celestial herbs.
"Erlong, your martial soul is the Fire Dragon mutated from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. This Earth Core Blue Lotus is perfect for you."
"Yiran, your martial soul is the Snake Spear Staff. This Blood Sea Spirit Grass will greatly enhance your body's strength."
"Yanyan, your martial soul is the Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor. The Blood Rainbow Dragon Ginseng might refine your bloodline."
"Xue Ke, your martial soul is the Golden Swan. The Earth Core Body Tempering Milk will cleanse your marrow and transform your body."
Mu Chen flicked his finger, sending the celestial herbs to Liu Erlong, Meng Yiran, Dugu Yan, and Princess Xue Ke. The treasure Xue Ke received was unique, not a celestial herb but a small bottle of Earth Core Body Tempering Milk that Mu Chen had discovered there. Though limited in quantity, it was enough to significantly enhance Princess Xue Ke's innate talent and physical strength.
"Old Poison, I feel bad for using so many of your celestial herbs," Mu Chen said with a polite smile.
"Little monster, you're being too modest." Dugu Bo affectionately patted Mu Chen's shoulder and said, "You've found a way to control the poison in my body and helped Yanyan acquire an external spirit bone, freeing her from a lifetime of poison. You have a debt of gratitude to me and my granddaughter. A few celestial herbs are nothing; I'd gladly give you the entire garden without batting an eye."
Mu Chen smiled, glancing unintentionally at Tang San.
In the original storyline, Tang San had taken all the celestial herbs from Dugu Bo's garden. But Mu Chen had only helped everyone obtain what they needed. In doing so, Mu Chen had once again altered a storyline.
Dugu Bo looked at Mu Chen with growing satisfaction, like a mother-in-law admiring her son-in-law—more pleasing to the eye each time. Not only was Mu Chen capable, but he also constantly cared for and motivated those around him. With such talent and character, Dugu Bo wished he could call Mu Chen his grandson-in-law.
"Little monster, aren't you going to pick a celestial herb for yourself?" Dugu Bo asked.
"No, I don't need one. Old Poison, with only a few days left before the competition, I need to borrow your garden for a while," Mu Chen replied.
"Feel free to use it as you please, no need to be formal with me," Dugu Bo said with a smile.
"Great. Now that you've obtained your celestial herbs, return to Shrek Academy for secluded cultivation. Jiangzhu, Meng Yiran, Dugu Yan, Erlong, Xiao Wu, Zhuqing, Rongrong, Xue Ke, you stay behind. I need to conduct special training for you," Mu Chen instructed.
"That's it?" Flender asked, surprised.
"Yes." Mu Chen nodded.
"Mu Chen, aren't you going to explain the competition rules to them?" Flender reminded.
"No." Mu Chen shook his head.
Flender wanted Mu Chen to explain the competition rules.
Mu Chen, familiar with the competition, knew it was divided into main and sub-teams. The main teams, representing the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, and the Spirit Hall, automatically advanced to the finals. The sub-teams would compete in preliminaries and qualifiers to earn their spot in the finals through their own strength.
The Heaven Dou Empire had six preliminary divisions, with over a hundred teams competing for just fifteen slots. The teams from Heaven Dou City faced the most competition, with only five slots available.
The formats for the preliminary and qualifier rounds differed. The preliminaries were team-based, while the qualifiers involved seven members from each academy competing one-on-one. The thirty-three teams in the finals would compete through a knockout draw until the third, second, and first places were determined.
In the finals, the top three seeded teams would have a bye in the first round. The second round would give a bye to the top two teams from the qualifiers. The same for the third round, after which the top six teams would compete. The fourth round would involve a team battle draw to determine the top three through both team and individual elimination matches.
Mu Chen didn't discuss these rules with the Shrek Ten Devils because he planned to try something new during the preliminaries.
