Chapter 39 - I'm Face Blind, I Don't Know if They're Pretty

"Damn Juzi! Damn Wang Dong'er! Xiao Xiao, Xu Tianzhen, Ye Guyi! And Gu Yue Na and Di Qiu'er! Huo Yuhao reached out to me first, but you all just had to crowd around and fight with me over him! I absolutely can't let you take him away!"

Meng Hongchen sat up abruptly in bed, carefully selecting a blue and white long dress. She dressed meticulously, convinced that she couldn't be inferior to the others!

Except for Gu Yue Na, Meng Hongchen didn't think her appearance was any worse. Moreover, Huo Yuhao had written in his Diary that white hair and red eyes were very much his style.

Yesterday's failure was just an accident. If she prepared well today, Meng Hongchen couldn't imagine how she would lose!

However, Meng Hongchen wasn't the only one with this mindset.

Gu Yue Na was holding back, wanting to obtain the other two rewards, believing that one of them would surely speed up her recovery.

Di Qiu'er was even more aggrieved. She was just one step away from meeting the requirements yesterday, but Huo Yuhao suddenly stopped. Di Qiu'er really wanted to grab Huo Yuhao by the collar and ask if he was always so… short?

Wang Dong'er had received a reward that could double the lifespan of a Soul Ring, but she held herself back.

After a day of interacting with Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong'er understood that getting Huo Yuhao to mention her name in the Diary more than ten times would not be as easy as they initially thought.

This time, they were lucky enough to meet the requirement. Who could guarantee they would always receive rewards in the future?

Because of this, Wang Dong'er planned to temporarily store the reward in the Diary's copy and use it when a suitable opportunity arose.

If she could use this reward on a fifty-thousand-year Soul Ring, it would directly elevate it to a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring level. Who could resist the temptation of a hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring?

Juzi was envious of Wang Dong'er's reward, but she felt that what she had gotten wasn't bad either. In addition to a fixed Soul Power increase of one level, she also received a "Double Effect" magical blessing that would last for half a month.

As long as she worked hard to cultivate during these two weeks, she could definitely increase her Soul Power by at least another level.

Of course, aside from diligently cultivating, Juzi also couldn't bear to give up the rewards from the Diary's copy. Not to mention anything else, just the fact that she could increase her Soul Power by one level as long as her name was mentioned more than ten times was enough to drive everyone below Soul King level crazy.

Even Juzi, who had already received a reward, was like this, let alone Xiao Xiao, Xu Tianzhen, and Ye Guyi.

The three of them were now holding their breath, determined to meet the requirements and receive a reward from the Diary.

Unfortunately, Huo Yuhao, who had already sensed the truth, wouldn't make it so easy for them. Just as he had written in the Diary yesterday, today, besides listening attentively to Jing Sha, the head teacher of Class One, explain the knowledge of Soul Tools, he spent all the other time with Xiao Hongchen in the laboratory.

However, since Huo Yuhao was determined to break the relationships of those beautiful girls, wanting to see them tear each other apart, he naturally wouldn't just sit idly by.

While making Soul Tools in the laboratory, he would occasionally write their names in the Diary, but in the end, only Gu Yue Na was mentioned more than ten times.

What was most unbearable was that Di Qiu'er, the Auspicious Beast, was only one mention away from receiving a reward.

Di Qiu'er, in the dormitory, saw that Huo Yuhao didn't seem to be planning to continue writing the Diary today, and she couldn't bear it any longer. She immediately showed a look of anger and was about to rush out to find Huo Yuhao.

Gu Yue Na saw this and raised her hand to stop her, frowning.

"Qiu'er, why can't you be a little more calm? This is the human world. Your current identity is a new student at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Tool Academy, not the Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Leopard, from the Star Dou Great Forest!"

What Gu Yue Na didn't expect was that her words had the opposite effect.

This time, Di Qiu'er didn't listen obediently, but rather, she retorted to Gu Yue Na with indignation.

"Of course you can say that! Because you met the standard again today, and you're still the only one! If no one else can be mentioned by Huo Yuhao more than ten times, all three rewards today will be yours!"

Gu Yue Na was slightly stunned upon hearing this, and then a surge of anger welled up in her heart. Those purple eyes suddenly turned into vertical pupils, and a terrifying pressure, enough to make one suffocate, gushed out from her body. Under Gu Yue Na's control, it just happened to only envelop this dormitory.

Even under this pressure, Di Qiu'er's well-proportioned body began to tremble slightly, but she still gritted her teeth and stared at Gu Yue Na, not showing any sign of backing down.

This state lasted for a while, until Di Qiu'er was about to give up, when this pressure suddenly disappeared.

Gu Yue Na turned her back to Di Qiu'er and said coldly.

"Suit yourself."

Di Qiu'er panted, taking a deep breath. She glanced at Gu Yue Na's back and then pushed the door open without hesitation, leaving the room.

Gu Yue Na stared at the closed dormitory door, her expression calm. After a long silence, she finally murmured, "How did things suddenly become like this?"

When Di Qiu'er arrived at Huo Yuhao's laboratory, she found that she wasn't the only one there. Wang Dong'er was also standing in front of the door.

Wang Dong'er frowned when she saw her and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Di Qiu'er didn't answer. Instead, she walked forward and asked, "What about you?"

"Where's Xiao Xiao? Aren't you two always together?"

Wang Dong'er's breath hitched, and her mood dipped. However, she also sensed something off about Di Qiu'er, so she quickly asked, "And Gu Yue Na? Why aren't you with your sister?"

As the words left her mouth, Wang Dong'er and Di Qiu'er exchanged glances, both able to see a hint of bitterness on the other's exquisite face.

Wang Dong'er hadn't expected her newly formed friendship with Xiao Xiao to fracture so quickly. Di Qiu'er, too, was unwilling to blindly obey the Silver Dragon King Gu Yue Na like before.

Just as they were each lost in their own thoughts, the laboratory door abruptly opened. The white-haired Xiao Hongchen stared at Wang Dong'er and Di Qiu'er at the door, momentarily stunned. He then spoke, "Yuhao said he's busy right now. He'll talk to you tomorrow if it's important."

Wang Dong'er and Di Qiu'er both pursed their lips, saying nothing more. They turned and walked away together.

Xiao Hongchen touched his chin, and couldn't help but mutter in a low voice.

"Two such beautiful young girls, and that kid Yuhao is going to ignore them?"

Bang!

After Xiao Hongchen closed the door, he walked quickly towards Huo Yuhao, who was making a Soul Tool. He also shouted loudly,

"Yuhao, are you sure you don't want to go out and see them? Let me tell you, according to my judgment, even compared to Meng, those two are definitely not inferior at all! They're even faintly more beautiful than Meng!"

Huo Yuhao, while engraving the Core of a Soul Tool, didn't even turn his head.

"I'm face-blind. Whether they're beautiful or not doesn't matter to me."
