    Chapter 107: Teasing; Conflict

    “Fatty, wipe that drool,” the sharp-eyed man across from the fat one scolded. Appreciating beautiful women is one thing, but he should at least pay attention to his image.

    “But Dai老大 (Big Brother Dai), look at those two beauties’ legs. They’re incredibly stunning,” Ma Hongjun couldn’t tear his gaze away. He and Dai Mubai, while both seasoned womanizers, had fundamental differences. Dai Mubai was purely lustful; as a prince, he had high standards for women. In Soto City, the twin sisters he pursued were rare beauties, the dream lovers of countless young men. Ma Hongjun, however, was just looking to relieve himself. From wild animals to village girls, basically any woman would do; he focused on quantity, not quality, and therefore didn’t care about his image.

    Actually, Dai Mubai’s comment that “women are resources, not people,” was something the fat man understood even more deeply. However, not caring about quality didn’t mean he didn’t appreciate it; landing a beautiful woman would certainly be better than his usual village girls.

    Du Gu Yan and Ye Lingling were both rare beauties. While the Shrek Three Beauties might surpass them in the future, they were still young, barely twelve years old. Du Gu Yan and Ye Lingling, however, were around twenty, the most beautiful age for a girl. The youthful aura they exuded with every smile and frown was indeed superior to Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong, who were still underdeveloped. Zhu Zhuqing didn’t count; she developed early.

    But Zhu Zhuqing was Dai Mubai’s target, so he dared not compete. The two in front of him, both wearing short skirts that revealed two pairs of snow-white, long legs, were incredibly alluring. If he remained unmoved today, he would surely regret it later.

    “Fatty, what are you looking at?” Du Gu Yan frowned. Being stared at by such a lecherous fat man, drooling over her legs, gave her goosebumps. Ye Lingling instinctively hid behind Xun Yu. She wished she had worn a longer skirt knowing she’d encounter this kind of ruffian.

    “Young man, staring at my students like that is rather impolite,” Qin Ming said. He hadn’t recognized these people; they were actually his juniors. When Flanders took Ma Hongjun as a student, he had already graduated and left the academy. This was his first time seeing him.

    “What’s it to you?” Ma Hongjun didn’t know what politeness was. Even though he could tell Qin Ming was a high-level Soul Master, he wasn’t afraid. His teacher Zhao was resting upstairs; would he really let him be bullied?

    “Misses, my name is Ma Hongjun. Don’t let my age fool you; I’m a level-27 Great Soul Master at only twelve years old. Might I have the honor of getting to know you?” Ma Hongjun produced a rose from somewhere. Since Ye Lingling was hiding, he could only offer it to Du Gu Yan.

    Using his Soul Master status to pick up girls was his specialty. Despite his weight, Soul Masters were highly sought after among commoners. Village girls, upon seeing that he was a Soul Master, would actively cling to him. After all, by climbing up to a Soul Master, they could enjoy a comfortable life; the monthly Soul Master subsidy alone was enough for a family to live on.

    Even when encountering women with soul power, Ma Hongjun was always successful, because his talent was extraordinary. Level 27 at twelve years old – a monster was no exaggeration. Women with soul power were even more ambitious; they fully understood Ma Hongjun’s potential. With such talent, reaching Soul Emperor or Soul Sage would be easy, and even legendary Soul Douluo wasn’t impossible.

    So even though Ma Hongjun was young, the number of women he had, whether through pursuing them or visiting brothels, was considerable. To say he’d seen countless women wasn’t an exaggeration.

    Unfortunately, the women he was hitting on weren’t ordinary. Ye Lingling, pursued by Xun Yu for years, had already softened. As a twelve-year-old boy, Xun Yu was handsome, intelligent, and had already broken through to level-30 Soul Sage. How was he not better than this fat man in every aspect? If Xun Yu weren’t so young, fearing an early relationship would hinder his cultivation, she might have already accepted him. She had already decided to go to Ancient Thunder King Country after the upcoming Soul Master Tournament.

    As for Du Gu Yan, her boyfriend was the heir to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, and her sworn brother was the Flying General, Nan Feihuang. Having seen Nan Feihuang’s prowess, a twelve-year-old Great Soul Master seemed insignificant.

    “Scram, you’re an eyesore,” Du Gu Yan directly swatted away the rose.

    Ma Hongjun wasn’t angry, about to speak again, when suddenly, a thunderous punch came at him. Seeing his girlfriend being harassed to this extent, Yu Tianheng couldn’t tolerate it if he was to be called a disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family.

    “Fatty, watch out!” Ma Hongjun, merely a Great Soul Master, couldn’t react, but Dai Mubai was quick, jumping in to meet Yu Tianheng’s palm. Dragon fist and tiger claw collided; the strong wind from the clash of two top-tier, close-combat beast martial souls overturned countless tables and chairs in the tavern. Yu Tianheng didn’t budge, but Dai Mubai took five steps back. Only after Tang San used his Crane Capture Dragon Subduing gentle force to dissipate Yu Tianheng’s punch did he regain his footing. Dai Mubai’s blood churned; in this clash, he was clearly at a disadvantage. Even though the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and White Tiger martial souls were of similar quality, and both were three-ringed, there was still a three-level Soul Power difference between Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng. Losing was expected.

    Among the Shrek Three Beauties, Ning Rongrong exclaimed, “That martial soul is… the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!” As a member of one of the top three clans, she naturally recognized it.

    Yu Tianheng retracted his fist, coldly threatening, “Hmph, you’re somewhat knowledgeable. You lot, control your friend; don’t let him harass other people’s girlfriends. Considering your young age, I won’t bully you; I won’t hold this against you today. Don’t let me see him bothering Yan Yan again.”

    Du Gu Bo, in the shadows, nodded, quite satisfied with Yu Tianheng’s performance. Acting for Du Gu Yan was his responsibility as her boyfriend, while showing restraint displayed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan’s magnanimity. Yu Tianheng had maintained a good balance.

    “Yu Tianheng was too lenient. If that fat man had harassed my future daughter-in-law, Xue Ke, his hand would’ve been gone,” Lan Xue mused, stroking her chin. She only mentioned Xue Ke, not Lü Lingqi, and didn’t know the relationship between Nan Feihuang and Qian Renxue. But mentioning Xue Ke was the most appropriate; if Ma Hongjun had dared touch the other two, Nan Feihuang wouldn’t need to lift a finger. The scene of the Angel Holy Sword and the Flying Lean Halberd clashing was too bloody for even Nan Feihuang to imagine.

    Ma Hongjun, still unhappy, was about to speak again, but Tang San immediately stopped him. “Fatty, don’t be impulsive. These people are extraordinary; you can’t afford to offend them.” Ning Rongrong had already mentioned the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon; everyone knew who they were. Ma Hongjun, unlike Ning Rongrong, didn’t have a powerful backer. If he angered the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan, even Flanders couldn’t protect him. Besides, they were in the wrong. While Shrek had the motto that “those who don’t dare to cause trouble are mediocre,” one should still choose their battles. Ma Hongjun harassing Yu Tianheng’s girlfriend was comparable to Flanders telling Yu Yuanzhen he wanted his wife. Imagine what would happen to Flanders then?
