"Little San, Little San, I'm here!"
From afar, the zu zong shouted loudly.
Look at that expression, that tone!
It's as intimate as can be, as affectionate as can be (ZuZong: Bah! It's friendship, not bromance). Anyone who didn't know better would really think the two were best buddies who "drink together when their bond is deep"!
As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them, including the zuzong, appeared completely in the Shrek Academy group's sight.
Dai Mubai showed a surprised expression, turned to look at Tang San, and asked, "Tang San, do you know that person?"
Just now, Dai Mubai had already prepared to go and cause trouble. Regardless of whether that blue-haired pretty boy had "seduced" Zhu Zhuqing, he was going to teach him a lesson.
There are three reasons:
First, attracting Zhu Zhuqing's attention is a sin;
second, being more handsome than him is an even greater sin;
third, and most importantly, he's accompanied by two beautiful women who completely ignore his handsome, rich, and tall appearance, which is an even greater sin.
But now it's different. The other party is calling Tang San, and very affectionately calling him "Little San."
Tsk tsk, listen to that!
Even their group of classmates have never called him "Little San," which is quite intriguing. After all, they'll be spending many years with Tang San, so they have to give him this much face.
Tang San's lips twitched, and he glared venomously at the approaching ZuZong. If they were alone, he would definitely let the other party taste the power of his newly made Zhuge Repeating Crossbow.
"I know him," Dai Mubai is still a good friend in Tang San's heart, someone he acknowledges. So there's no need to lie about this.
Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai suddenly understood. Thinking to himself, "Looks like they really are friends! Luckily, I wasn't impulsive."
Just then, the zu zong walked over. After a closer inspection, he discovered that Tang San's soul power had indeed increased to level 29. A slight smile appeared on his lips. How interesting! He hadn't expected that even with his first soul ring destroyed, he had still managed to reach level 29.
"Hey! I say, Tang San, why are you still as taciturn as before? You don't even respond when your brother talks to you. Have you forgotten that your first soul ring was obtained by your brother?"
Dai Mubai (feeling reassured): Tang San is indeed taciturn. Even knowing that Tang San is a taciturn person, it seems they are indeed friends. They even helped with the soul ring. They truly are good brothers!
Tang San (angrily): Brother my ass! This scoundrel is a bastard!
As he spoke, the zu zong sized up the three people opposite him:
Tang San was still the same as before, wishing he could beat me up;
Dai Mubai was smiling and trying to be friendly, it seemed he really thought I was Tang San's good buddy.
As for Zhu Zhuqing, I glanced at her crimson breasts—they were really huge (swallowing hard). But why was she staring at me like that? That affectionate look in her eyes... Could it be that even the most aloof girl in the original story was swayed by my good looks?
Clearing his throat, Zu Zong said seriously, "Ahem, well, my name is Zu Zong, Zu Zong as in Zu Zong, Zong as in Zu Zong. You can call me Zu Zong or Xiao Zong from now on. Um! I'm Tang San's 'fellow villager' and elementary school classmate."

As she spoke, the clan elder pointed to Xiao Wu and Ye Lingling, saying, "This rabbit is our village chief's granddaughter, and this beauty in black veils is our academy's school beauty."
Although Xiao Wu disliked Tang San's gloomy appearance, especially his first soul skill (that's the key point!), since the clan elder was introducing her to outsiders, she wouldn't refuse. "Ah-ha-lo (learned from the zuzong)! Hello everyone, my name is Xiao Wu."
As she spoke, Xiao Wu walked up to Tang San. She looked him over from left to right, nodding as she looked. For a moment, Tang San felt a little embarrassed by Xiao Wu's gaze.
Tang San (blushing): Xiao Wu is so cute!
Xiao Wu clenched her right fist and pounded her left palm, suddenly realizing, "Your name is Tang San, right? Looking closely, you are indeed quite ugly."
Hearing this, Tang San's forehead creased with black lines; this contrast dealt a blow to his heart, which had been naive for two lifetimes.
Dressed in black with a veil over her face, Ye Lingling maintained her aloof demeanor, speaking softly, "Ye Lingling." However, those familiar with her would notice a significant softening compared to before. Previously, she would at most nod, barely uttering a word.
Hearing Ye Lingling's melodious, otherworldly voice, Dai Mubai was captivated. He then glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, thinking to himself, "Ye—Ling—Ling? Looks about my age, truly an ethereal girl. I wonder what Zhuqing will be like in a few years."
Brushing his slightly disheveled golden hair, Dai Mubai said seriously, "Oh! Hello, my name is Dai Mubai, Tang San's classmate." As he spoke, his eyes occasionally darted between Zhu Zhuqing and Ye Lingling. As for Xiao Wu, he automatically ignored her. Although Xiao Wu was a beauty, compared to the two in front of him, she was far inferior.
A cold glint flashed in the zu zong eyes; he noticed this. Hmph! Truly incorrigible.
Zhu Zhuqing stared directly at the zuzong, uttering a cold voice: "Zhu-Zhu-Qing," but she emphasized the word "Zhu-Qing." She then seemed hesitant to speak, but after glancing at the two girls beside the Clan Elder, she could only snort coldly: "Men are all big pigs." The
zu zong rolled his eyes, somewhat confused. Had he offended her?
As for Tang San, he didn't say much, his gaze fixed on Xiao Wu, feeling inexplicably empty inside.
When he shifted his gaze back to the zuzong, his disappointment largely disappeared, and his face, which had been slightly flushed from Xiao Wu's gaze, stiffened. He said coldly, "Hmph! Don't pretend to be kind. Speak, what's the matter? If not, I'm going back to the academy."
Tang San's reaction was within the clan leader's expectations, but Xiao Wu was unhappy. She immediately glared at Tang San like a cat with its fur standing on end—no, a rabbit with its fur standing on end—and said, "Hmph! Tang San, what kind of tone is that? The zu zong was speaking to you so politely, why are you being so rude? Are you still blaming the zu zong for the first spirit ring incident?"
"The first spirit ring?" ×2
Both Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing showed expressions of doubt. Tang San had fought with them all, and their strength had been acknowledged by them. Zhu Zhuqing felt inferior, and Dai Mubai believed that even without using his third spirit skill, he couldn't easily defeat Tang San.
Tang San was currently level 29, and they had all seen his second spirit skill—Parasitism—a single-target restriction skill that was extremely troublesome. But they had never seen his first spirit skill.
Could it be that his first spirit skill was Tang San's hidden trump card?
