Chapter 12: Thunder Emperor Qin Xiao, Ning Fengzhi’s Worries
Chapter 12: Thunder Emperor Qin Xiao, Ning Fengzhi's Worries
"A new task?"
Qin Xiao stopped in his tracks, instinctively glancing at Ning Rongrong and Oscar.
Given the system's nature, he felt this task might be related to these two unfortunate kids.
[Rookie, you are still weak, and you need two capable friends by your side. Only then can you go further. An auxiliary soul master is the best choice.
Task requirement: Help Ning Rongrong and Oscar complete Flander's trial in your own way.
Reward: Ning Rongrong's favorability +20, Oscar's favorability -10.]
Hmm? Are you sure I need to start from zero to train companions with my current strength?
It's not arrogance, but Qin Xiao felt that when he needed assistance, he should just go to Ning Fengzhi directly.
A favor from an eighteen-year-old Titled Douluo should not be rejected by Ning Fengzhi.
Thinking this, he looked at Oscar again. He wanted to ask the system if the decrease in favorability was serious. Was this supposed to be a reward?
After the decrease in favorability, what would Oscar do?
Hmm, Given Oscar's strength, probably nothing.Or rather, Qin Xiao didn't care much about this issue.
"If you think Dean Flander's task is too difficult, I can help you."
Just when Ning Rongrong was hesitating and thinking of giving up, Qin Xiao's voice rang out.
"Your Highness, are you serious?" Ning Rongrong's eyes brightened.
Beside her, Oscar's expression suddenly darkened.
Qin Xiao noticed this but didn't pay it any mind.
"Let's go outside the academy to talk."
Qin Xiao led the way out of the academy.
Ning Rongrong and Oscar followed closely.
"Slurp."
At this moment, Fatty couldn't help but gulp enviously: "Oscar and that girl are lucky to get personal guidance from a Titled Douluo."
In fact, not just Ma Hongjun, except for Xiao Wu, who wouldn't be envious? After all, that's a Titled Douluo, a powerful and elusive figure!
"Yeah, if only I had that chance..."
Dai Mubai couldn't finish his sentence.
Behind him, a voice spoke up: "Hmph, if you're willing to study at Shrek Academy, study well. If not, leave!"
Undoubtedly, the speaker was Flander.
Immediately, the two stopped talking, shrank their necks, and quietly moved aside.
"Tang San, come with me."
Flander finished speaking and left without looking back at the others.
Tang San followed closely.
Elsewhere, Qin Xiao had already taken Ning Rongrong and Oscar outside of Shrek Academy.
"Your Highness, as you know, we auxiliary soul masters are physically weak. How do you plan to help us?"
Ning Rongrong asked eagerly.
In her view, Qin Xiao was certainly going to help them cheat, and then Flander would turn a blind eye, and the matter would be over.
"It's simple. I have a method that can infinitely activate a person's potential, enough for you to complete the task before lunch."
Qin Xiao said, a relaxed smile on his lips.
"Really!"
Ning Rongrong was overjoyed.
Beside her, Oscar's eyes were also full of curiosity.
"Crackle!"
Qin Xiao snapped his fingers, and a flash of electricity appeared and vanished.
Ning Rongrong and Oscar's faces instantly turned pale.
"This..."
"You're not going to..."
The two were stunned at the sight.
Qin Xiao, bathed in thunder, stood proudly, unconsciously emerging in their minds.
Simultaneously, a chill ran from their feet to the top of their heads! Qin Xiao nodded: "Yes, it's by using the power of thunder to stimulate your potential."
Hiss! Ning Rongrong's face turned deathly pale: "I, I think I'd rather not."
Oscar's face also lost its color: "Your Highness, I don't need it either. I think this amount of training is nothing for me. Look."
Saying this, he took a bite of the big sausage in his hand and then started running.
That speed would make even a rabbit shed tears.
"I think I can do it too."
Ning Rongrong said, exerting herself to catch up to Oscar.
However, Qin Xiao was not satisfied with her speed. He flicked his finger, and a streak of lightning shot through the air, striking Ning Rongrong.
"Ugh"
Ning Rongrong let out a strange cry, feeling a tingling numbness throughout her body, an indescribably peculiar sensation.
Yet, admittedly, her speed had increased significantly.
"Good, I don't ask for much, just maintain this speed."
"If you can't keep up, let me help you."
Suddenly, such a voice reached Ning Rongrong's ears. She instinctively looked beside her, and there was Qin Xiao, walking effortlessly alongside her.
However.
Qin Xiao's casual demeanor made Ning Rongrong realize the vast gap in strength between herself and Qin Xiao.
"What are you daydreaming about? You're slowing down!"
At that moment, Qin Xiao flicked his finger again, and a bolt of electricity, like a small whip, struck Ning Rongrong.
"Ow."
Ning Rongrong let out another cry of pain, and her speed increased further.
"Is this man a devil? Even the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan doesn't get any special treatment?"
"What about me..."
Oscar, running ahead, heard Ning Rongrong's screams and felt his heart chilling.
But, to avoid suffering himself, he exerted all his strength, running as if his life depended on it.
Elsewhere.
In the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, seated on a north-facing throne, the handsome and refined Ning Fengzhi quietly listened to a disciple's report:
"Clan leader, the young miss has entered Shrek Academy, but there's a Soul Sage powerhouse there, so I didn't dare to probe too deeply."
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi nodded: "I understand, it's not your fault. Keep investigating and report back."
He gestured for the disciple to leave.
Normally, the disciple would have left, but he remained in place.
"Is there something else?" Ning Fengzhi asked indifferently.
"Clan leader, besides the young miss's matter, something unusual happened at Shrek Academy."
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan disciple hesitated, unsure if this counted as a significant matter.
"Go on," Ning Fengzhi prompted, frowning slightly.
"It's like this. Our people observed endless thunderstorms descending on Shrek Academy late at night, and it lasted for quite a long time."
"How long?"
"Several... several hours."
The disciple said, sounding incredulous even to himself.
After a moment of silence.
Ning Fengzhi ordered, "Continue to monitor the young miss's situation."
"Yes!"
After receiving Ning Fengzhi's instructions, the disciple quickly left.
At the same time, a figure hurriedly entered.
It was an old man with white hair and beard.
"Fengzhi, are you really at ease letting Rongrong stay out there alone? What kind of backwater is Shrek Academy compared to what we can teach her? I'm going to bring Rongrong back. I can't rest easy with her out there."
Saying this, he casually sat down on a chair beside Clan Leader Ning Fengzhi.
Clearly, he intended to stay unless Ning Fengzhi agreed with him.
However, To his surprise, Ning Fengzhi actually nodded, "You're right, I was negligent. There might indeed be a big problem at Shrek Academy. Uncle Jian, your arrival is timely. Let's go to Shrek Academy together."
