The heavenly curtain played its final scene.
The screen froze on Yu Chen's expression.
From beginning to end, his expression remained as serene as ever.
And looking at his serene expression,
the onlookers on Douluo Continent all grew excited.
Although the heavenly curtain had not continued to play,
everyone now felt they had already guessed the outcome.
At this moment, they not only popped the champagne early,
convinced that Yu Chen would definitely win,
but they even began to imagine what demands Yu Chen would make of Bibi Dong next.
"Here it comes! Here it comes!"
"Bibi Dong is going to suffer a huge loss this time."
"Indeed, she knows too little about Yu Chen, too naive, that's why she was tricked by Yu Chen.
If only she knew that this person had already finished reading all the books in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's library when he was seven years old, she wouldn't have been so foolish as to compete with him."
"Indeed... I even feel that Yu Chen deliberately slowed down his reading speed this time..."
"So... what demand will Yu Chen make of Bibi Dong in the end?"
"Could it be that he'll ask Bibi Dong to be his girlfriend?"
"Uh... If you said Yu Xiaogang made that demand, I'd believe it, but as for Yu Chen... probably not. Yu Chen shouldn't be so unprincipled."
The students of Shrek Academy were no different.
Although the former dean, Liu Erlong, had repeatedly warned them to show respect to Yu Xiaogang,
that respect was clearly only superficial.
In private,
the students, deep down, still felt indifferent towards this sudden new headmaster.
They even harbored a hint of disdain.
With such thoughts,
they naturally spoke without restraint when joking around.
Yu Xiaogang was in the academy dormitory.
Hearing the conversations from next door,
he was naturally furious.
He hadn't expected that, after all this effort, the heavenly curtain hadn't dragged him out for comparison and ridicule this time,
yet he was still being mentioned and mocked by others.
... ...
What do you mean?
What do you mean, if I made such a demand, you'd believe it?
Am I, Yu Xiaogang, that kind of person?
... ...
Yu Xiaogang was enraged.
He subconsciously pushed open the door, ready to go and argue with those guys.
However, when he actually reached the doorway,
he couldn't help but stop again.
His expression suddenly became a little awkward.
The reason for this was nothing else.
But that he suddenly remembered.
He had indeed done similar things before.
At this thought,
Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but look greatly embarrassed.
He awkwardly sat back down on the bed.
Then he looked up again at the heavenly curtain above.
He couldn't help but continue to mutter to himself,
"They're all men. I don't believe that you can remain unmoved in front of a beauty like Bibi Dong, acting like Liu Xiahui!"
Yu Xiaogang was full of confidence.
Yu Chen on the heavenly curtain was the same.
The subsequent results did not exceed everyone's expectations.
... ...
[Bibi Dong opened the notebook in front of her.
She could test him however she wanted.
Whether it was random selection or having Yu Chen recite the contents backward,
no matter how tricky the test conditions were,
Yu Chen handled them with ease.
Seeing him like this,
Bibi Dong finally believed that what Yu Chen had said earlier was not false.
She also hadn't expected that she had only just met this young man, and it hadn't even been a day,
yet she had already lost, and lost so thoroughly.
"You won. Speak, what is your demand? No matter what, I will do my best to fulfill it."
Bibi Dong lowered her head.
Her expression was utterly dejected as she spoke.
Seeing her like this, Yu Chen smiled.
He slowly pointed at Bibi Dong opposite him and said,
"My demand is also very simple. It's just, Miss Bibi Dong, you..."
...
The heavenly curtain stopped here again.
"Ha!"
"Gotcha!"
"Yu Chen, I didn't expect you to be such a lecher!"
Yu Xiaogang was excited.
At this moment, he directly jumped up in the dormitory temporarily provided for his rest.
They say it's better to blacken others than to improve oneself.
Yu Xiaogang's mindset at the moment was exactly like this.
No one knew better than him how many sordid things he had done in the past.
So he knew very well.
Based on his past self, it was almost impossible to achieve a highlight moment on the heavenly curtain and reverse public opinion about himself.
So he had shifted his target immediately.
Now, what he hoped for was to find flaws in Yu Chen.
And furiously throw dirt on him.
As long as Yu Chen's subsequent performance was even more despicable and shameful than his own,
he would have largely succeeded.
Yu Xiaogang's excitement at this moment was also due to this.
He felt that this time, he had finally caught Yu Chen's flaw.
However, before he could even think about how to make a big deal out of this,
the heavenly curtain continued to play,
and directly poured a basin of cold water over him.
Only then did Yu Xiaogang realize.
That all of this was just his wishful thinking.
... ...
"You… what do you mean, 'you'…?"
"Yu Chen, I didn't expect you to be such a scoundrel!"
"I'm telling you, this is absolutely impossible."
"We've only known each other for less than a day, how could things develop so quickly?!"
Bibi Dong said, turning her head away with a blush.
However, although her words were a refusal,
there was only shyness in her brows.
Not a trace of anger.
It was obvious.
As the misunderstanding was resolved,
Bibi Dong's favorable impression of Yu Chen had invisibly risen another notch.
Seeing her like this, Yu Chen smiled and corrected her,
"Miss Bibi Dong, you've misunderstood. I haven't finished speaking yet."
"My demand is simply for you, Bibi Dong, to… help me retrieve the subsequent parts of this Spirit notebook."
"What were you thinking, Miss?"
"Ah?"
Bibi Dong was stunned after hearing this, "So after all that, your demand was just this?"
"Yes, otherwise, Miss Bibi Dong, what was my demand?"
Yu Chen looked at her eyes, a hint of playfulness flashing in his gaze.
Bibi Dong's expression was greatly embarrassed.
She wanted to complain but didn't know where to start.
She could only stomp her foot unhappily.
And told Yu Chen to wait.
Then she stepped forward, about to walk into the depths of the library.
However, after only two steps, as if she remembered something, she stopped again.
She turned back and asked Yu Chen seriously,
"Do you really like studying Spirit knowledge?"
"Yes, I do." Yu Chen nodded.
"Then wait."
Bibi Dong said no more after hearing this.
A moment later, she returned, taking out the last part of the Titled Douluo's Spirit notebook and placing it in front of Yu Chen.
And besides this book,
a gilded book was also placed in front of Yu Chen.
...
The screen froze here.
Some onlookers whispered, looking at the handsome man and beautiful woman on the screen, feeling that they had already smelled the sour scent of love.
But they were just onlookers.
Anyone who had heard of Yu Xiaogang's name and was familiar with him,
at this moment, their focus was not on these things.
But on the seemingly ordinary gilded book placed on the desk.
The reason for this was nothing else.
But because on the title page of this book, eight large characters were written in a flamboyant style, strikingly—Soul Power Ten Core Theories.
The greatest shock belonged to the Shrek Seven Devils.
After exchanging glances,
it was the straightforward eldest young lady, Ning Rongrong, who first broke the silence in the arena.
And asked the crowd again,
"Soul Power Ten Core Theories?"
"Why does that name sound so familiar? Isn't that the theory Grandmaster said he created himself?"
"So, after all this, Grandmaster's core theory, which he relied on for his fame, was also copied?!"
