"Wang Dong'er, you three come here for a moment."
After the final match, Wang Yan called Wang Dong'er and the other two over.
"Congratulations on your excellent record of five wins out of five," Wang Yan said with a smile. "Among all the teams participating in the freshman assessment competition, only four teams have Soul Masters with three rings. With your strength, you should be able to enter the top 64 and participate in the ranking competition."
"However, if you underestimate your opponent just because you are strong, you will inevitably suffer a setback. So, you should not be careless in the following matches."
"In a moment, all participating teams will be re-drawn. Teams that lose all five matches will be eliminated and will not be able to stay at Shrek Academy."
"You'll probably still be competing in District 33 tomorrow, but the teams you'll face will be stronger. Don't think you're invincible just because you beat a team with three second-ring opponents once, understand?"
"Hmm." Wang Dong'er nodded. Martial Souls are all-encompassing, and some Martial Souls may indeed possess strange rule-based abilities. She has never underestimated any opponent.
"Hmm...you guys go and rest." Wang Yan pondered for a moment, then waved for the three of them to leave.
He wanted to ask some questions, such as why Wang Dong'er's second soul ring was a thousand-year soul ring, and why he couldn't tell what Huo Yuhao's martial soul was even after Huo Yuhao used his soul skill.
However, Wang Yan still had her own pride and did not want to give up easily.
Wang Dong'er and her two companions can still instantly kill opponents now, but as they encounter increasingly stronger opponents, their hidden strength will eventually be revealed.
As soon as Wang Dong'er stepped out of the assessment area, she saw a beautiful woman dressed in red and wearing a veil standing to the side.
Upon seeing the woman in red, both Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao felt a pang of anxiety.
They naturally recognized the woman; she was the madwoman in red from the shores of Poseidon Lake.
But wasn't the matter already over? Why is she coming to my door again?
Seeing Wang Dong'er and the other two come out, Ma Xiaotao said arrogantly, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. Come with me."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ma Xiaotao turned and left.
Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao both looked at Wang Dong'er involuntarily, waiting for her decision.
Unexpectedly, they heard a vulgar answer that was quite inconsistent with the image of a beautiful girl.
"Who the hell do you think you are? Can't you speak properly? Who are you bossing around to?"
If Huo Yuhao hadn't had the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm and Electrolux, he would only be considered either foolish and courting death or courageous.
But Wang Dong'er was different; she had the confidence and the reason to turn against Ma Xiaotao.
Ma Xiaotao was clearly not expected that these three freshmen would dare to humiliate her like this, and for a moment her body, which had turned away, froze in place.
"Fine, very well. It's been a long time since anyone has dared to be so rude to me." Ma Xiaotao turned around, clenched her fists, and a pressure instantly swept over her.
Immediately afterward, as if remembering something, Ma Xiaotao quickly loosened her fist, took a deep breath, and said, "My name is Ma Xiaotao, and I come from the Inner Court."
After saying just that one sentence, Ma Xiaotao waited in place, seemingly wanting to experience the shock of Wang Dong'er and the others.
But after waiting for a long time, they didn't see any shock, fear or respect on the faces of the three people.
Wang Dong'er even asked her calmly, "And then?"
"You don't know about the inner courtyard?" Ma Xiaotao found it somewhat unbelievable.
"Never mind, whether you know me or not, you should recognize me."
"I'm the student who almost harmed you when I came out of Poseidon Lake. Can I come with you now? I have something I want to ask you."
"Is there something that can't be asked here? Or is it that your pride doesn't allow you to apologize to us here?" Wang Dong'er said calmly.
"Furthermore, you didn't just nearly hurt us, you actually did hurt us."
"I have my own reasons for this, and I hope you can understand." When this matter was mentioned, Ma Xiaotao's attitude finally softened, and she no longer held a grudge against Wang Dong'er for her previous rude remarks.
"If I understood you, I would already be half dead by then. It's best not to offer an apology that isn't sincere," Wang Dong'er said coldly.
If it weren't for the fear of stirring up Ma Xiaotao's anger and causing unforeseen consequences, Wang Dong'er would have liked to give Ma Xiaotao a good lesson by suppressing her with her Qi.
"Whatever kind of compensation you want, I'm willing to do anything I can," Ma Xiaotao said. "But there's one thing I need an answer to."
"Ha." Wang Dong'er laughed. "Willing to do anything? What kind of resolve makes you say such a thing? Are you even worthy of such a statement?"
"You're so self-centered."
"I..." Ma Xiaotao's mind went blank.
He had come with great momentum, but why did he feel like Wang Dong'er had turned the tables on him?
"Let me be frank. Whatever you want, whether you need my help, cultivation resources, or even the qualification to enter the inner academy, I can find a way."
"However, I need to know the specifics of that day. The reason I didn't cause a major disaster was because an ice-attribute Soul Master appeared that day. If you know anything about what happened that day, or if he was one of your guards, even just a little clue would be helpful."
There was a hint of anxiety in Ma Xiaotao's tone.
Since that day, she has no longer been troubled by the evil fire and has been able to cultivate comfortably for three months.
However, three months later, the ice-attribute cold energy in Ma Xiaotao's body had completely disappeared, and the martial soul of Xu Sanshi that she had been looking for was no longer of much use.
Unable to suppress the evil fire any longer meant that Ma Xiaotao could no longer continue cultivating, something she absolutely could not accept.
Left with no other choice, Ma Xiaotao remembered what Yan Shaozhe had mentioned about the freshmen who had been accidentally injured. Since the freshmen assessment was currently underway, she went directly to find them and waited there until Wang Dong'er and the other two came out.
"That's why I said, people like you only think about themselves and don't care about the mistakes they've made." Wang Dong'er put her hands behind her back and secretly made a gesture to Xiao Xiao and Huo Yuhao.
Just as she said, the real reason Ma Xiaotao came here was because she could no longer cultivate, so she could only try her luck and hope to find the ice-attribute soul master who had intervened back then, rather than really wanting to apologize to her, or rather, the apology was just something she did on a whim.
Otherwise, why would Ma Xiaotao wait until now to come and say, "I want to apologize"?
In this world, the law of the jungle prevails, and it's not uncommon for the strong to humiliate the weak.
But Ma Xiaotao, being a strong person, could disregard these things, so why couldn't Wang Dong'er treat Ma Xiaotao like a fart?
Having a powerful background is also a form of strength.
