My Soul Skills Made Tang San Cry

Dai Mubai closed the window with a satisfied expression. 

"I've decided on this brother of mine!" 

"Owow!" 

Oscar exclaimed— 

"This newcomer can really endure!" 

"Although I don't know what happened in that room..." 

"Just look at Zhu Zhuqing..." 

A dangerous glare swept over, making Oscar shrink back his neck. 

"Don't have any ideas about Zhuqing! She's mine!" Dai Mubai warned. "And don't bring up my past! Otherwise, don't blame me for turning hostile!" 

Oscar clicked his tongue, not daring to refute. 

After all, his fist was bigger. 

"Then Zhu Zhuqing belongs to you." 

Oscar tested the waters— 

"Little Wu and that Tang San look like a pair." 

"That last Ning Rongrong can't snatch her away from me, right?" 

Dai Mubai waved his hand indifferently. 

"If you can chase her, feel free." 

"But she's from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and as far as I know, Ning Rongrong..." 

"Forget it, trying won't cost you a piece of flesh." 

Oscar laughed heartily. 

"Yeah! Trying doesn't cost anything!" 

Hehehe— 

The noise in the room continued for most of the night before finally stopping. 

Zhuge Lan still hadn't moved. 

After a while... 

Creak— 

The wooden door opened. 

Zhu Zhuqing was wrapped in a sheet, revealing only a pair of purple peach blossom eyes. 

Seeing Zhuge Lan guarding the door, a flicker of warmth crossed her cold gaze. 

Her tone softened slightly— 

"Thank you." 

"I really feel like I've become much stronger." 

"Are there any other steps next?" 

"If not, I need to go clean up." 

After all, she was a girl. 

Feeling uncomfortable with the stains on her body. 

Zhuge Lan stood up and made space for her. 

"Go ahead, make sure to rest a bit." 

"School starts tomorrow, being late wouldn't be good." 

Zhu Zhuqing responded with an "mm" and quickly left. 

She didn't return to the dorm but headed for the bathhouse. 

Zhuge Lan stretched and returned to his room. 

The window was wide open for ventilation, and the floor was damp, indicating it had been mopped recently. 

Zhu Zhuqing was quite considerate. 

Zhuge Lan lay down, preparing to sleep. 

But his mind was filled with Zhu Zhuqing's alluring form.

 'System, can I pay to sleep?' 

[1 emotion point to purchase "Deep Sleep," where 1 minute equals 1 hour of sleep, with awakening service provided!]

'Bought!' 

[Consumed 1 emotion point, host has fallen asleep!] 

Zhuge Lan's vision darkened, and he fell into a deep sleep. 

He didn't know how long it had been. 

He suddenly woke up with a start, his gaze dazed as he made eye contact with Zhu Zhuqing. 

[Awakening service completed, wishing the host more brilliance today!]

Oh~ So that's how it is. 

But Zhu Zhuqing misunderstood.

 Having been hunted before, she understood that maintaining vigilance while sleeping required blood and flesh to cultivate.

 She felt more sympathy for Zhuge Lan. 

"It's time for breakfast," Zhu Zhuqing said softly. "We have one hour before school starts." 

Zhuge Lan nodded. 

Thanks to the system's "Deep Sleep," He had fallen asleep in his clothes last night. 

So he simply got out of bed and washed up briefly before setting off. 

However, from Zhu Zhuqing's perspective, Zhuge Lan had stayed up all night to protect her and must have been too exhausted to change. Thus, she felt guilty about the only verbal promise she had given him. 

Seizing the opportunity to initiate conversation, she said, "I feel like I've gotten a lot stronger, but I don't know how much my soul ring's lifespan has increased. Do you have an approximate range?" 

Zhuge Lan didn't answer immediately. 

'System, can you measure the soul ring lifespan for others?' 

[1 emotion point to purchase "Physical Scan," which can provide detailed data on the target!]

'Buy!' 

[Consumed 1 emotion point, physical scan completed!]

—————————— 

Zhu Zhuqing, 11 years, 8 months, and 4 days old, height 163 cm, measurements 89D, 63, 86. Physical soul ring limit: 8360 years.

—————————— 

Wow! 

That soul ring lifespan is really impressive! 

How should I tell Zhu Zhuqing? 

Got it! 

He pretended to be troubled and tested the waters— 

"I do have a method to sense the soul ring limit, but..." 

He didn't continue, shrugging toward Zhu Zhuqing. Leaving the decision to her. 

[Emotion points +666] 

It wasn't that he wanted to take advantage of her. 

It was just that physical contact would stimulate hormone secretion, leading to the release of adrenaline and dopamine. 

Making people feel good. 

When a girl feels good around you, doesn't that naturally lead to her developing feelings? 

This is called—scientific flirting! 

With yesterday's composure, 

Zhu Zhuqing didn't hesitate, extending her hand in front of Zhuge Lan. 

[Emotion points +699]

"Can I hold your hand?" 

Look at that! 

The efforts and patience from yesterday have finally paid off! 

"That's enough." 

Zhuge Lan held Zhu Zhuqing's hand, which was cool but soft and delicate, her skin felt incredibly smooth. 

It was hard to imagine this was a hand that wielded a knife. 

Of course!

 Zhu Zhuqing usually used her martial soul cat claws, and soul masters rarely carried weapons. 

So she naturally wouldn't have calluses. 

[Emotion points +999] 

[Emotion points +999]

[Emotion points +999] 

As Zhu Zhuqing's emotion points began to decrease, Zhuge Lan didn't linger too much and let go of her soft little hand.

 He nodded in acknowledgment. 

"Your current physical soul ring limit is below 8360 years."

 "Subtracting the third soul ring limit of 1700 years," 

"You've increased your soul ring limit by 6660 years this time, which is quite impressive."

[Emotion points +3999] 

"Really?" Zhu Zhuqing exclaimed with delight. "The third soul ring can have 8360 years?" 

Zhuge Lan simply shrugged, not repeating. 

"I'm not saying I don't believe you," Zhu Zhuqing hurriedly explained— "I just..." 

"This is too unbelievable!"

 "I originally thought that if I could increase by 1000 years, that would be very powerful!" 

"Who knew it could be as much as 8360 years..." 

"Then doesn't that mean my fourth soul ring could reach 10,000 years?" 

"This..." 

"I..." 

The surprise came too suddenly! 

It left Zhu Zhuqing temporarily speechless. 

Only— 

[Emotion points +2999] 

[Emotion points +2777]

[Emotion points +3199]

In just a few seconds, She contributed nearly ten thousand emotion points. 

This made Zhuge Lan happy. 

Such a "sensitive constitution" was indeed exceptional! 

Swish— 

Zhu Zhuqing lunged forward, crashing into Zhuge Lan, hugging him. 

Zhuge Lan felt a bit of pressure on his chest! 

The soft and large object, when pressed, expanded the contact area, restricting his breathing. 

Zhu Zhuqing quickly withdrew and darted a few meters away. 

Her cool expression now tinged with panic. 

"I didn't mean anything else; don't misunderstand." Zhu Zhuqing explained— "I just got too emotional and couldn't control myself for a moment." 

"My promise still stands; you can come find me anytime to redeem it!" 

Zhuge Lan inhaled the fragrant scent near his nose, smacking his lips. 

Before he could speak, 

Zhu Zhuqing urged, "The cafeteria has specific hours; if we're late, it will close." 

Zhuge Lan nodded in agreement. 

"I don't know where the cafeteria is; can you lead the way?" 

"Sure!" 

Zhu Zhuqing left quickly, as if she had activated a wind step. 

But Zhuge Lan's physical quality had been enhanced by two million-year soul rings and soul bones. 

He easily kept up. 

Halfway there, 

Suddenly, they heard a furious shout not far away. 

"Break up?" 

"Fine!" 

"If you dare to do it with me again, I'll break up with you!"
