"No, Ling Luochen, don't slander me!" Ma Xiaotao denied strenuously, her face red, and hit Ling Luochen again.
"You're flustered, flustered, I must have hit the mark! Xiao Tao, you're dating and didn't even tell me, that's too much!"
Seeing Ma Xiaotao like this, Ling Luochen became even more energetic.
Although Ling Luochen usually appeared extremely cold, she was just too lazy to talk to people she wasn't familiar with.
But Ma Xiaotao was her best friend, and their relationship was excellent, so Ling Luochen also released her true self without any reservations.
"No, you saw wrong!"
Ma Xiaotao's face became increasingly flushed from being teased.
"I'm not training today, you can play by yourself."
Immediately after, she left a sentence, spread her flame wings, and instantly fled.
"So it is! Xiao Tao, you've changed!!" Ling Luochen shouted from below, but didn't chase after her.
After all, curiosity was one thing, but she wouldn't deliberately pry into others' privacy. However, if she happened to bump into Ma Xiaotao while she was on a date... then it wouldn't be her fault...
"Hmph hmph, I'd like to see who it is that can make my Xiao Tao so utterly infatuated."
Ling Luochen no longer had a sparring partner, so she lightly snorted and directly headed back home.
She had a faint premonition that Ma Xiaotao might bring her "little man" back to the dormitory, and then...
...
By the Sea God Lake, Bai Zhou didn't run around this time, but obediently waited here for Ma Xiaotao to pick him up.
Last time he ran around, it was fortunate that he was caught by Zhang Lexuan. If he had been caught by other Teachers, it might not have been so easy to talk his way out of it.
Before joining the Inner Courtyard, Bai Zhou still planned to be more well-behaved.
As for when to join the Inner Courtyard... we'll talk about it later.
After all, joining the Inner Courtyard meant truly becoming Shrek's dog, having to sacrifice oneself for Shrek's honor and for the peace of the World...
Although Bai Zhou wouldn't be brainwashed, he also didn't want to be leashed like a dog.
So many people die in the Inner Courtyard every year, and it's not like Shrek produced many amazing figures.
Mu En, Xuan Zi, Yan Shaozhe, and others all possessed World-class Bloodlines.
These Bloodlines could make even a dog take off, it really had nothing to do with Shrek.
And in this generation of Shrek Seven Devils, only Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Dai Yueheng had relatively amazing Bloodlines.
Bai Zhou remembered that in the original work, the other 4 people didn't seem to have much presence, and it seemed like later they either died or were crippled, basically becoming useless.
But these other four people could be said to have been selected through a thousand choices.
Based on probability, those who could be admitted to Shrek could be said to be one in ten thousand, let's say one ten-thousandth.
In Shrek's 1st to 5th years, the elimination rate is as high as 95%, meaning out of a thousand people, only 50 can graduate.
Only 5-6 people are admitted to the Inner Courtyard each year.
So the promotion rate for the Inner Courtyard is 0.5%, which even dogs would shake their heads at.
Selected through such fierce competition, their talent, comprehension, Spirit, and strength could all be said to be at a super monster level.
And then they are taken by Shrek to their deaths...
If these people were placed in other secondary academies and fully cultivated, they would 100% become Titled Douluo in the future.
But here at Shrek, let alone Titled Douluo, it's already a miracle if they don't die. If they're unlucky, they'll be crippled, severely injured, or something, unable to make any further progress in this life.
Even the Holy Spirit Church Master would shake his head upon seeing this.
This Inner Courtyard, it's better not to stay.
...
"Xiao Bai."
Just then, a familiar voice came from behind.
Bai Zhou didn't need to turn around to know it was Ma Xiaotao.
"Swoosh—"
A fragrant breeze assailed him. Bai Zhou turned his head, opened his arms, wanting to throw himself into her embrace, but was stopped by Ma Xiaotao.
"Stop messing around, what if someone sees us..."
Ma Xiaotao quickly held Bai Zhou down, her face red, and said coquettishly.
"Then let's go to your place~"
Bai Zhou chuckled.
"Let's go, let's go, don't let anyone see us..."
Ma Xiaotao felt a bit guilty, and quickly pulled Bai Zhou up and flew off.
When she and Bai Zhou first met, she truly regarded Bai Zhou as her "younger brother," so she carried Bai Zhou around without any reservations.
Was there a problem with her holding her younger brother?
But now... her relationship with Bai Zhou...
No matter who she explained it to, she felt a bit guilty.
So the best method was still not to let anyone see them.
"Last time we clearly agreed, if you wanted to... we'd get a room outside. Why did you suddenly come over!"
Ma Xiaotao held Bai Zhou and gently pinched his waist, complaining a little.
"I couldn't help it, I missed Little Tao too much, so I couldn't resist coming over." Bai Zhou chuckled.
"Bah, I don't believe you..."
Ma Xiaotao lightly spat and muttered softly.
Although she said this, she knew in her heart that Bai Zhou was talking nonsense, but hearing Bai Zhou's sweet words, she still felt an unspeakable sweetness in her heart.
Her tiny bit of resentment towards Bai Zhou also instantly disappeared, vanishing without a trace.
...
Ma Xiaotao's speed was very fast. She brought Bai Zhou directly into her room, and only then did she let out a heavy sigh of relief.
"I'll take a shower first, I just finished training and my body is sticky..." Ma Xiaatao casually threw off her clothes and dropped her pants.
Revealing the sports bra and panties underneath.
Not caring at all that Bai Zhou was staring at her from the side.
Or rather, she had long since gotten used to it.
"Little Tao, your figure seems to have gotten better again~"
Bai Zhou gently wrapped his arms around Ma Xiaotao's slender waist, lightly pinched it, and accidentally pinched out a small bit of flesh.
"Where? I've gotten fat..."
Ma Xiaotao lowered her head and glanced at her flesh, her face immediately fell.
It was all Bai Zhou's fault for giving her so much ice cream. Every time, she couldn't control her mouth and had to eat several every night...
Although she had doubled her training recently, her weight still increased by almost 10 jin...
"Then exercise more, you can sweat a lot from one session~"
Bai Zhou chuckled.
His hands, however...
Ma Xiaotao instantly understood, her face slightly red, and she gently slapped away Bai Zhou's hands, saying coquettishly, "I knew you brat didn't have good intentions..."
Although she said this, Ma Xiaotao had to admit that Bai Zhou's "exercise" was truly effective. One session, plus a day of dieting, could make her lose several jin.
If they did it a few more times, her figure would definitely return to its Peak.
But if they did it a few more times, she really couldn't handle it...
The two of them dawdled and entered the bathroom.
Ma Xiaotao lay on the edge of the bathtub, while Bai Zhou scrubbed Ma Xiaotao's back.
It would be a real pity not to scrub such a fair jade-like back.
"Right, Little Tao, I have a Cultivation Technique here that's beneficial for cultivation. Take a look first."
While scrubbing her back, Bai Zhou used his powerful mental force to slowly transmit the Yun Yu Jue he had obtained into Ma Xiaotao's mind.
"mental force can be used like this??"
Ma Xiaotao was immediately a bit shocked. She hadn't expected Bai Zhou's mental force to be so powerful that he could directly transmit a Cultivation Technique from a distance.
However, soon, Ma Xiaotao was attracted by the Cultivation Technique transmitted by Bai Zhou.
As she read...
Her originally slightly red face gradually turned bright red.
And then became hot...
