Chapitre 352: Chapter 352: Shui Yue’er’s Fangirling, Xiao Wu’s Request
Shui Bing'er looked at her remaining three teammates, feeling a heavy sense of defeat. The strength gap was too wide, and they still had to be wary of Zhu Zhuqing, who was stealthily hidden on the field, ready to attack at any moment. Shui Bing'er could only rely on her instincts, occasionally using her third soul skill to try and reveal Zhu Zhuqing's location.
However, this tactic was not sustainable—her third soul skill drained significant soul power, while Zhu Zhuqing, aided by Ning Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Tower, could likely maintain her fourth soul skill longer than Shui Bing'er could manage.
After a tense stalemate, Shui Bing'er reluctantly raised her right hand toward the referee and announced, "We surrender!"
Only then did Zhu Zhuqing reveal herself, startling Shui Bing'er. Zhu Zhuqing had positioned herself right at the edge of her Repelling Ice Ring's effective range, ready to strike if Shui Bing'er hadn't conceded. Zhu Zhuqing could have risked attacking Xue Wu as soon as Shui Bing'er used her third soul skill, but she decided to play it safe, cautious in a friendly match and wanting to observe Shui Bing'er's potential response.
The arena was packed with spectators, and both teams preferred to keep some of their true capabilities hidden.
During this match, everyone held back a bit—Shui Bing'er never used her fourth soul skill, Zhu Zhuqing relied solely on the concealment aspect of her fourth soul skill, and Dugu Yan only used one illusion from her fourth skill. Overall, not much was revealed.
The announcer, realizing the need for diplomacy, praised, "What a breathtaking match! Both sides were evenly matched, reaching an impasse. This concludes the friendly match between Tianshui Academy and Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. A grand luncheon awaits, so please make your way to the hall!"
Tianshui Team: …
They appreciated the announcer's kindness, though they found the phrasing a bit odd—it would have sounded better if he had simply declared the match over!
Xue Wu gave Shui Bing'er a supportive pat on the shoulder. "Bing'er, this was my fault; that agility-type soul master clearly targeted me!"
Shui Bing'er shook her head, saying, "Xue Wu, it's not your fault. We weren't able to protect you. Her skill is truly extraordinary—I couldn't even sense her location. If she had chosen me as her target, I doubt I would have lasted long unless we used our Ice and Snow Drift fusion skill to freeze her in place. Otherwise, none of us could handle her."
After a moment's thought, she whispered, "And honestly, we didn't lose out here—didn't Su Ming activate the livestream at the start? Let's look forward to some rewards tonight."
Xue Wu's eyes sparkled with excitement. This was her first chance at a reward, and she regretted not having the journal earlier. Unlike other heroines who had received the journal years ago, they had missed out on multiple live-streamed events.
At lunch, Shui Yue'er, full of confidence, eagerly approached Su Ming to strike up a conversation. Su Ming was delighted but found her enthusiasm a little overwhelming.
"Ouch!" Shui Yue'er suddenly clutched her head, looking teary-eyed at her sister.
"Why did you do that, Sister?"
Shui Bing'er, exasperated, apologized to Su Ming. "Please don't mind her. Yue'er's a bit of a fangirl and can be a little… uninhibited. You're probably the best-looking guy she's seen."
Feeling that her words might come across poorly, Shui Bing'er added, "Well, Yue'er hasn't really met many men. You know, at Tianshui Academy, from the headmaster to the students, everyone is female. She might be fangirling just because she doesn't see many guys."
Su Ming chuckled, shaking his head to show he didn't mind. In fact, Shui Yue'er's enthusiasm offered him an opportunity to get closer to the three sisters.
The group continued chatting, and as all three Tianshui Academy leaders had journals, everyone shared an understanding of the true purpose of this match: a chance to assess their own strengths and prepare for the main competition.
When lunch was nearly over, Xiao Wu took the chance to pull Shui Bing'er aside under the pretense of a restroom break.
Su Ming, though curious, shrugged it off. It wasn't uncommon for girls to go to the restroom together.
Outside the restroom, Shui Bing'er asked, "Xiao Wu, did you want to talk about something?"
Nervously, Xiao Wu said sweetly, "Sister Bing'er, I actually have a request. Do you think you could help me?"
With her natural charm, Xiao Wu's request hit Shui Bing'er right in her "big sister" heart. As the Tianshui Academy leader, Shui Bing'er was known for helping others, and she couldn't resist the "big sister" appeal.
"Sister Bing'er," Xiao Wu continued sincerely, "you've read all of Su Ming's journal, right?"
Shui Bing'er nodded.
Xiao Wu pressed on, "Then you know just how horrible Tang San is to me, and how awful Dai Mubai was to Zhuqing. Now that they're both with Thunder Academy, I was hoping that if you face Thunder Academy in the tournament, you might help us teach them a harsh lesson."
Looking at Xiao Wu's "pitiful" expression, Shui Bing'er felt a surge of empathy. She recalled that in the original story, Xiao Wu had practically served as Tang San's sacrifice, providing him with spirit rings, a scabbard, and even a 100,000-year-old spirit ring and bone!
