Chapter 48

Beibei said with a relaxed smile, "What if you lose?"

Xu Sanshi snorted and said, "I'll give you a thousand gold soul coins."

Beibei shook his head and said, "No, the Mystic Water Pill isn't just worth a thousand gold soul coins. I won't bet on something unfair."

Xu Sanshi angrily said, "This is all the money I have. If you don't agree, I'll get angry."

Beibei sighed lightly and said, "Am I short of money? Fine, I'll give you a chance. I know you still have a Mystic Water Pill. Let's bet with another one."

A hint of doubt flashed in Xu Sanshi's eyes, "Why do I feel like I'm falling into your trap? It seems like you're very confident you'll win me?"

Beibei still had a gentle smile on his face, "It was you who proposed the bet, not me. You can choose not to bet. And don't complain if you lose."

Xu Sanshi snorted and said, "I'll lose? Even though I might not be able to beat you, it won't be easy for you to win either. What if it's a tie?"

Beibei didn't fall for it, "We'll just go back to our own places. Hurry up, don't be so slow like a woman."

Xu Sanshi gritted his teeth and said, "Fine, I'll bet with you. You scoundrel, your strength may not be better than mine, but you're very cunning. I guess I'm falling for your trick again. Even if I fall for it, I'll accept it. At worst, I'll go home and beg my father next time."

Beibei's smile remained, and although Xu Sanshi was trying hard to notice any changes in his expression, he found nothing.

"You! You're not actually stupid, but whenever it comes to Jiang Nan'nan, you immediately become three parts foolish. I really don't know if you two are karmic enemies from a past life. Although Jiang Nan'nan is beautiful, there are many other excellent female students. Why do you have to be infatuated with just one flower?"

Xu Sanshi said irritably, "Don't stand there and talk without feeling the pain. If you have the ability, give Tang Ya to me?"

Beibei stood up and said, "You'd better adjust your state quickly, so you don't complain after losing. I'll go out first." As he spoke, he walked towards the door.

Just as Tang Ya had predicted, more and more students were gathering in the Soul Dueling Area. A quick estimate showed that there were already over four hundred, and it was likely to reach five hundred.

"Huo Yuhao." A voice filled with resentment startled Huo Yuhao. He turned around and saw Wang Dong, dressed neatly, approaching him angrily.

"Why are you here too?" Huo Yuhao asked somewhat guiltily, immediately recalling the white scene he had seen earlier...

Wang Dong's face turned red and then white, and he sat down next to Huo Yuhao, lowering his voice, "Tell me, what did you see?"

Huo Yuhao was taken aback and said, "Ah? I didn't see anything!"

Wang Dong snorted angrily, "If you don't knock next time, I'll kill you."

Huo Yuhao knew he was in the wrong but still mumbled, "We're all men, so what if I saw it? You didn't lose anything."

"What did you say?" Wang Dong was furious and reached out to grab Huo Yuhao.

A slender hand reached out and slapped Wang Dong's hand away, and Tang Ya's voice sounded, "Little Yuhao, you haven't introduced me yet."

Wang Dong only then noticed Tang Ya's presence. Seeing her stunning beauty, he was momentarily stunned but quickly recovered, snorted, and sat up straight, ignoring Huo Yuhao. After Huo Yuhao ran away, he quickly dressed but couldn't find Huo Yuhao. He couldn't meditate and calm down, and when he heard the announcement in the dormitory, he decided to go out for a walk, only to run into Huo Yuhao and Tang Ya here.

Huo Yuhao said, "Teacher Tang Ya, this is my roommate, Wang Dong. Wang Dong, this is Tang Ya, our senior."

Wang Dong nodded at Tang Ya, who smiled and said, "What a handsome little boy! I like him. How about it, Little Yuhao, can you do some work and recruit him into our Tang Sect?"

Wang Dong's body trembled slightly when he heard the name Tang Sect and asked in surprise, "You are from the Tang Sect?"

Tang Ya nodded repeatedly, "Yes, now there are only three of us in the Tang Sect. I am the current leader of the Tang Sect. Surprised? Come on, the Tang Sect welcomes you."

She was just saying it casually. Although Tang Ya usually seemed carefree, anyone who thought she was foolish would eventually suffer a great loss at her hands. She had long noticed Wang Dong's extraordinary qualities, his essence condensed and his soul power solid, clearly far surpassing Huo Yuhao.

However, to Tang Ya's surprise, after a brief daze, Wang Dong nodded and said, "Sure! I've heard of the Tang Sect's amazing hidden weapons. Tang Sect Leader, I want to join the Tang Sect. Please accept me."

"Ah? You really want to join our Tang Sect? We only have three people left in the Tang Sect now." Tang Ya was greatly surprised, her eyes full of confusion as she looked at Wang Dong.

Wang Dong nodded seriously, "I hope to join the Tang Sect and learn hidden weapons."

Tang Ya's expression became solemn, "I'll think about it. Yuhao will tell you the answer later."

Just as they were talking, Beibei had already walked from the rest room into the arena. As soon as he appeared, some of the students watching from the sidelines began to cheer his name.

"Thunder Beibei, Thunder Beibei..."

Beibei smiled and waved to the students watching from the sidelines, but his eyes were searching the stands.

Tang Ya stood up and waved to him. Beibei finally saw them, and since they were far away, he couldn't hear them, so he made a few gestures to her.

They had been together for a while, and Tang Ya immediately responded with a few gestures, indicating that she understood, before sitting down again.

"Little Yuhao, what is the maximum distance for your mental detection sharing?" Tang Ya asked softly in Huo Yuhao's ear.

Huo Yuhao said, "If it's just one direction, it's about fifty meters."

He had just tested the single-direction mental detection limit with Wang Dong. If he released his mental detection normally, it would only be a diameter of thirty meters, meaning the actual detection distance in any direction was only fifteen meters. Fifty meters was already more than twice the limit, but it would also consume a lot of Huo Yuhao's soul power.

Tang Ya immediately raised her right hand and made a few gestures to Beibei, who nodded at her.

At this moment, Xu Sanshi also entered the Soul Dueling Arena, accompanied by a teacher in his forties.

Inside the Soul Dueling Arena, both Xu Sanshi and Beibei resumed their cold and hostile expressions. This wasn't the first time they had competed in the Soul Dueling Arena. In previous matches, they had both won and lost, but ties were the most common. They had made a lot of money from these Soul Dueling matches and naturally couldn't easily reveal their close relationship.

The referee teacher walked to the center of the arena and said in a deep voice, "Fourth-year Beibei challenges fifth-year Xu Sanshi. If Xu Sanshi loses the match, he must pay an additional ten gold soul coins. You have already made a private bet. Are you both ready?"

Beibei and Xu Sanshi both nodded at the referee.
