So it seems there’s a chance to encounter her in the arena...
Chen Mo pulled up a smile, leaned close to her ear, and whispered: "Remember to wear the thong during the martial arts exam; I might check at any time."
Could it be he wants her to disrobe in public?
Ling Ningzhi’s pretty face turned bright red, and there was a hint of annoyance in her voice, "Although I’ve signed a contract with you, you can’t trample on my dignity ! Wearing this underwear just for you is already too much... It’s unacceptable for anyone else!"
"When did I say it was for others to see?"
"Any checks would naturally be done where there’s no one else around..."
Seeing Ling Ningzhi’s resolute refusal, Chen Mo chuckled and said, "But from the Daoist’s tone, it seems you’re willing to let me see?"
"Don’t misinterpret my words!"
Ling Ningzhi furrowed her brows and said coldly: "If it weren’t for the creation of the Creation Golden Pill, how would I endure this humiliation and let you act so impertinently?"
Chen Mo was not concerned, smiling slyly: "Life is like a thong; it’s hard to endure when you first put it on, but you’ll get used to it gradually. With time, maybe you’ll even find it comfortable, Daoist."
Ling Ningzhi felt there was hidden meaning in his words.
She didn’t want to argue with Chen Mo anymore and turned to leave.
Chen Mo said coldly: "Did you already forget the rules we just set?"
Ling Ningzhi’s steps halted abruptly, her pretty face flushed, and she replied in a low voice: "No, I haven’t forgotten..."
"Repeat it so I can hear."
"In front of others, call you Master, and when there’s no one, call... call you Lord..."
"So what should the Daoist say now?"
Ling Ningzhi’s cheeks were burning hotter, hesitated a moment, and stumbled: "L-Lord, Zhi’er takes her leave..."
Chen Mo waved his hand.
Ling Ningzhi’s figure disappeared like the wind, leaving in escape.
Chen Mo’s mouth curled slightly upward.
If there were a progress bar for events, Ling Ningzhi’s descent level should already be slowly rising.
And this is just the beginning.
"The dust of the red world refines the heart, every experience awakens the soul, don’t blame me, Fairy, I’m just helping you in your cultivation!"
With hands behind his back, Chen Mo left leisurely.
Inside Jinxiu Workshop.
Yu Hongyin stared blankly at the underwear in her hand.
The conversation between Chen Mo and the shop owner was not intentionally hidden, and she had five sensory clarity, hearing everything clearly through the screen.
All these underwear were designed by that big bastard?
Reason told her to throw the clothes away, but she felt conflicted... Because they really looked great!
"Anyway, wearing them inside, no one would know..."
"Hmph, Daoist Qingxuan seems righteous, but secretly she’s so open-minded. Even I’m embarrassed to wear such a small piece of clothing; truly, one cannot judge by appearance..."
Yu Hongyin muttered softly, hugged a dozen pieces of underwear, and headed to the counter to pay.
"That’ll be a hundred and fifty taels," the shop owner looked at her and said.
Yu Hongyin hesitated, then took a red lace thong from the nearby shelf.
The Heavenly Martial Arena was bustling with activity; there were more people training than before, all preparing for the Heavenly Human Martial Exam, sharpening their skills at the last moment.
Although the hope of fighting for the Martial Arts Champion was slim, the top ten can still receive generous rewards.
The age restriction for the martial exam is below thirty, and aside from a few Fourth Rank Heavenly Pride, most are Fifth Rank, so the gap isn’t that large.
Furthermore, methods aren’t restricted, whether it’s hidden weapons, Alchemy Pills, or even poisoning, they’re all within the rules.
In this regard, the chances of placing are quite high!
The court is greatly concerned about this martial exam; Her Majesty the Empress might personally attend the ceremony.
If one can seize this opportunity and perform impressively to win Her Majesty’s favor, the future is bound to be promising!
Yan Linghu emerged shirtless from the B Room, his breathing somewhat heavy, his bear-like strong body covered in sweat.
Receiving the towel handed to him by a person beside him, he wiped his body with a few smug expressions.
"I’ve already touched the threshold of mastery in Xuanwu Dominating Body Technique, and the strength of my physical body has improved again! At this rate, it won’t be long before I can train in the C Room!"
"Unfortunately, my bone age has passed, and I can’t participate in the Heavenly Human Martial Exam, or I would definitely leave a good impression before the Empress!"
The last time Chen Mo "heroically saved the beauty," left Yan Linghu deeply affected.
If he had been strong enough and killed that monster first, the one Zi Yan’er would have embraced could have been him...
Since ancient times, beauties have loved heroes, and to make oneself strong is essential!
Having reflected deeply, Yan Linghu shifted his focus back to training.
He possessed natural strength, strong and tough bones, a prodigy in horizontal practice; as long as he persists diligently, he might step into the Grandmaster realm someday!
"That’s for sure; if Young Master Yan participated in the martial exam, the top three would surely be in his bag!"
"I think even the Martial Arts Champion could be contended for!"
Listening to the surrounding flattery, Yan Linghu’s smile was bright, and he felt extremely pleased.
Just then, he saw a figure clad in a black robe approaching, and the smile froze on his face.
He instinctively stepped back a few paces and lowered his head silently.
The black-robed man passed by everyone without a glance and went straight into the B Room.
"Heh, another one overestimating himself."
"Even Fourth Ranks don’t dare enter the B Room; he goes without a protector; isn’t he afraid of being crushed to death!"
A military officer sneered softly.
Yan Linghu slapped the back of his head, sending him staggering.
