Ning Rongrong's face showed a hint of impatience.
"What exactly do you want to say?"
Yin Hao walked up to her unhurriedly and extended his hand to her.
"I want to say that no strong person will deny themselves because of other people's words. Instead of struggling with yourself here, why not prove to others how wrong their words are?"
Ning Rongrong looked at Yin Hao's outstretched hand, and for some reason, she unconsciously placed her hand on it.
Yin Hao smiled.
"Then come with me, they are in the Great Soul Arena now, let's go and take a look..."
"Hmm..."
To be honest, Yin Hao never thought Flander's teaching was very good. Putting aside everything else, just the phrase "Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre" says it all.
However, despite this, he was still excellent in his treatment of his students. A level 78 Soul Saint, who could stand against a group of Title Douluos in Wuhun City for Tang San, that alone would make countless people feel ashamed.
Yin Hao's attitude towards Flander wasn't exactly one of dislike, and given the system's rule that trading partners couldn't be two spirit rings stronger than him (currently, Spirit Masters could trade with Spirit Sects, but not with Spirit Kings), Yin Hao currently viewed Flander as just an ordinary teacher. However, if Flander were to later oppose him for any reason, Yin Hao would show no mercy.
...
Arriving at the Great Spirit Arena, everyone had already formed teams. Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing were on one team, Dai Mubai and Tang San were on another, and Ma Hongjun stood there alone, looking unhappy.
Dai Mubai had originally planned to team up with Zhu Zhuqing, but before he could even speak, Zhu Zhuqing didn't even glance at him and went straight to Xiao Wu to form a team.
This greatly angered Dai Mubai. "I've already come to you, isn't that giving you face? You're ungrateful!"
However, considering this was the Grand Arena, Dai Mubai suppressed his anger and planned to confront her after leaving the arena.
When Flander saw Yin Hao and Ning Rongrong arrive, he nodded. Although he had a letter from Ning Fengzhi as a "trump card," if he really angered Ning Rongrong, she might bring in a Title Douluo from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
He would be dumbfounded then; Zhao Wuji's miserable state was still vivid in his mind, and he didn't want to follow in Zhao Wuji's footsteps.
Yin Hao greeted the people in the rest area, then turned to Ning Rongrong and said,
"Since everyone else has already formed teams, let's form one too." As
soon as Yin Hao finished speaking, Ma Hongjun, who was standing nearby ready to approach him, froze. Who said everyone had already formed teams? "Isn't there another one here?"
Xiao Wu, sitting next to Zhu Zhuqing, was equally unhappy, but since she had agreed to team up with Zhu Zhuqing, she couldn't say anything more.
Ning Rongrong, after hearing Yin Hao's words, naturally didn't object and readily agreed.
The two then went to the front desk to apply for a team.
Only Ma Hongjun remained, standing there looking at Flander with displeasure.
Flander was also somewhat embarrassed. He had originally planned not to let Ning Rongrong participate first, and then have Ma Hongjun and Yin Hao form a team.
Unexpectedly, Yin Hao directly teamed up with Ning Rongrong. However, it didn't matter; Ning Rongrong was, after all, a level 20+ support Soul Master, and couldn't help Yin Hao much in a level 30+ Soul Battle. After they lost, Yin Hao could then find Ma Hongjun to team up with. Ma Hongjun,
receiving this result, sat unhappily at the back of the group, but didn't say anything more.
Upon arriving at the front desk, after Yin Hao explained that he wanted to register for a duo team, the receptionist immediately spoke up.
"The registration fee is ten gold coins. You'll receive a total of ten gold coins for each win."
Yin Hao handed her ten gold coins, then had their soul power tested at the front desk. After the test, the receptionist reminded them,
"I need to remind you both that although this young lady's level is only in the twenties, if you team up, you'll be participating in a Soul Master level battle."
Yin Hao smiled.
"It's alright, please register us."
Seeing that Yin Hao refused, the receptionist stopped trying to persuade him.
"Please give your team a name,"
Yin Hao said after a moment's thought.
"Let's call it the Ronghao Duo." (I'm really bad at naming things, please forgive me.) "Okay."
After registering, Xiao Wu came running over, grabbing Yin Hao's arm and saying,
"Brother Hao, my solo battle is about to start, you can't miss it..."
"Okay, okay, I'll be right there."
"No, you come with me."
Yin Hao glanced helplessly at Xiao Wu, then said to Ning Rongrong.
"Rongrong, let's go back to the rest area first."
Ning Rongrong nodded in agreement.
Actually, it wasn't about it starting soon. Xiao Wu had originally planned to wait for Yin Hao to arrive before forming a team, but after waiting for more than half an hour without seeing him, she finally teamed up with Zhu Zhuqing.
Because of this, she wasted time; her solo battle still had half an hour to go.
Back in the rest area, Xiao Wu sat down next to Zhu Zhuqing, clinging to Yin Hao's arm, while Ning Rongrong sat on the other side of Yin Hao.
Zhu Zhuqing glanced at Xiao Wu clinging to Yin Hao but didn't say anything.
"By the way, Rongrong, can I ask you for a favor?"
Hearing Yin Hao's voice, Ning Rongrong looked at him but didn't hesitate and nodded directly.
"What favor?"
Yin Hao smiled slightly awkwardly.
"I want to borrow some money from you."
Ning Rongrong was taken aback for a moment, but quickly realized what he meant.
"You don't mean... you want to participate in the betting at the Great Soul Arena, do you?"
The Great Soul Arena is similar to a boxing ring in modern society, with betting offered by the organizers. In the original story, Flander won a lot of gold soul coins through betting at the Great Soul Arena.
Yin Hao nodded.
Ning Rongrong waved her hand generously.
"No problem, how much do you want to borrow?"
Yin Hao thought for a moment. Betting too much would not only attract the attention of the organizers, but behind-the-scenes manipulation would be a minor issue. His real concern was that even if he won, he might not be able to come up with the money, given the power of the Grand Soul Arena; they might not hesitate to do so.
But too little wouldn't work either. If he won too little, when would he ever be able to exchange his old system for a pair of Kaleidoscopes again?
Besides, he had Flander, a high-level Soul Saint, with him. As long as the amount wasn't too large, the Grand Soul Arena wouldn't resort to underhanded tactics.
After some consideration, Yin Hao said,
"Then let's make 100,000..."
It must be said, Ning Rongrong truly lived up to her reputation as the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Most people would be terrified and unable to come up with 100,000 gold soul coins, but Ning Rongrong was only slightly surprised before taking out a gold card from her person.
