314 A Ninth-Grade Dharmic Armament? (2/2)

Li Yi, Wang Baole!Jin Duoming stared at the two figures on the screen and gnashed his teeth. He was torn inside. He knew about what had happened to Wang Baole in the Mystic Luna Realm, and he thought they could be friends. He didn't wish to make an enemy of him unless it was the last resort.

But it's just not right to go after a friend's love interest.Jin Duoming took a deep breath. He was torn about the entire matter. At the same time, based on what he knew and had found out, he simply could not believe that Wang Baole and Li Yi would become a couple. He turned towards the female cultivator beside him and asked.

”Duo Duo, say a man and a woman are always hostile to each other whenever they meet. They get into fights with each other countless times. Is there a possibility for them to fall in love with each other and become a couple?”

The female cultivator by the name of Duo Duo smiled as she sliced the fruits up. She spoke.

”Young Master, the possibility of such things happening is high. You don't understand women. From how I see it, Li Yi has a strong interest in Wang Baole. This is what we call a bickering couple.”

When Jin Duoming heard what Duo Duo called them, he smacked his forehead. Hidden behind his palm, his eyes revealed a deep considering look. When he removed his hand from his eyes, the look disappeared, replacing it was a look of agitation and fury. He pulled out a purple jade slip and pressed it hard. The enormous stronghold that had been parked in the Martian sky port shuddered immediately.

Under the stunned gazes of everyone in the port, the pilotless stronghold rose into the air and sped at top speed towards Zone Twelve, where the Fire Spirit Academy stood. On its way, it caught the eyes of many people. The stronghold soon reached the Fire Spirit Academy. Jin Duoming entered the stronghold, and it once again roared to life and charged towards the Dao Mountain Mist Academy.

Everything happened within half an hour. Wang Baole was just about to begin his meditation when the stronghold appeared in the skies above the Dao Mountain Mist Academy. Its appearance shocked the academy's teachers and students, and a commotion stirred in the school.

”What the hell is that?”

”My god, look at the inscriptions on that thing!”

”It's too much. Is this the legendary space stronghold?”

As the students and teachers stood stunned, Jin Duoming's voice rang out from inside the stronghold.

”Wang Baole, your friend is here. Won't you join me for a chat?” Jin Duoming's voice rang out. A balcony appeared on the outer shell of the stronghold, and Jin Duoming stood on the balcony and gazed at the Dao Mountain Mist Academy below. His visit didn't mean that he believed that Wang Baole and Li Yi were dating. He simply felt Wang Baole a threat and wanted to impress and intimidate. That was the reason for his particular choice of entrance.

Wang Baole walked out of his residence as Jin Duoming's voice rang out into the air. He raised his head and saw the majestic stronghold before him and gasped. He had only managed to catch a glance of the stronghold from afar a few days ago and hadn't gotten a clear look at it. Now that it was hovering right before his eyes in mid-air, he finally got a close look at it.

It's just too lavish!Wang Baole realized what the stronghold was made of and became even more shocked. He felt the aura of extravagance that belonged only to the filthy rich exploding from the stronghold. It seemed to be able to overwhelm everything. Compared to this, what the senators' children had been showing off during the Ethereal Fruit Feast had been peanuts, what they had then paled in comparison.

Wang Baole narrowed his eyes at Jin Duoming's invitation. He considered how Li Yi had just left and here Jin Duoming was, mere steps behind her. He wondered if there was something to it. He was confident in his own abilities, though. Besides, this was his turf. He wasn't going to be cowed by Jin Duoming's impressive entrance.

He raced towards the stronghold in the sky and, in an instant, landed on the balcony. He stood before Jin Duoming and turned towards the latter.

”Fellow Daoist Jin, you've made quite a grand entrance. What's the reason for it?”

Jin Duoming stared at Wang Baole. He had always been a straightforward guy and had no intentions to beat around the bush. He said very openly.

”Wang Baole, I'm interested in Li Yi. Can you not compete with me for her affections? We're good friends, after all. I'll let you have anything else you want!”

Wang Baole froze. He didn't expect Jin Duoming to make such a dramatic entrance just for this. His heart rate sped up, and his eyes started shining brightly. Jin Duoming was practically signing him a blank check… he stared at Jin Duoming, blinked and tried his luck.

”A ninth-grade Dharmic Armament?”

Jin Duoming fell silent when he heard what Wang Baole had asked for. A moment longer, he spoke in a weak voice.

”Do you have a ninth-grade Dharmic Armament? How about I give up on Li Yi if you give me one…”
