Chapter 272 - The Power of Genius! Ice Emperor's Little Scheme!

 As for which of these methods to choose?

  Zhuge Lan declared—

  only children make choices, he wants them all!

  However…

  Zhuge Lan stroked his chin, pondering leisurely—

  if things continue like this,

  won't these Shrek Academy guys be completely ruined in one go?

  If that happens, it won't be very interesting…

  he'll have to be careful with the pace!

  It's not that he's worried they won't provide any emotional points later.

  It's just that Zhuge Lan is simply a little reluctant to let them go.

  Shrek Academy is such a wonderful place.

  The people there are interesting and speak so pleasantly; he absolutely loves it here!

  There are hardly any places like this in the entire Douluo Continent.

  Hmm, perhaps after the Dance King Competition ends,

  he can explore other regions' instances—that way, he won't be afraid of ruining these Shrek Academy guys.

  Zhuge Lan believes that Dai Mubai and the others are geniuses; even if their mentality collapses temporarily, they will recover quickly over time.

  —Dai Mubai and the others: "Who wants to be a genius with this kind of attribute?!"

  …

  Over here.

  Hyotei couldn't help but grumble—

  "You tell me…"

  "Does Zhuge Lan really think he's the smartest person on the entire continent?"

  "He's treating everyone like fools, is he just having fun?"

  "That's outrageous!"

  "He could be admired and respected by others."

  "But now he only gets rejection."

  "I remember humans are social animals, don't you think Zhuge Lan's hobbies are a bit strange?"

  Hyotei kept muttering to herself.

  It wasn't that she actually harbored a lot of resentment towards Zhuge Lan.

  A tsundere loli—proud and short-tempered.

  Her emotions came and went quickly.

  Hyotei's resentment towards Zhuge Lan wasn't as severe as she had previously shown.

  After all, with Zhuge Lan, she truly saw hope of becoming a god.

  And she could spend every day with Yuki-tei.

  With such a great gain

  , being played was no big deal…

  The reason she kept grumbling about Zhuge Lan was purely because Yuki-tei was so cold.

  That's right.

  When discussing other topics,

  no matter how much Ice Empress spoke, Snow Empress would only glance at her coldly a few times.

  There was absolutely no response!

  Sometimes, she wouldn't even give Ice Empress a second look. After being repeatedly

  rebuffed, Ice Empress had no way to express her

  bitterness. Even when she wanted to get angry—she couldn't bear to say anything harsh to her beloved Snow Empress.

  After many attempts,

  Ice Empress finally mastered a technique:

  directly revolving her conversation around Zhuge Lan.

  Only this could move Snow Empress. Indeed, Snow Empress was extremely cold and

  indifferent

  , like a celestial maiden, showing no emotion towards anything in the world.

  But there are always exceptions. The only thing Snow Empress cared about was becoming a god.

  And Zhuge Lan

  was undoubtedly Snow Empress's only hope for becoming a god.

  Therefore, Zhuge Lan naturally became someone Snow Empress cared about.

  So, Ice Empress, helplessly, could only use Zhuge Lan as a topic to communicate with Snow Empress.

  But a proud and aloof being like Ice Empress…

  Even if she acknowledged Zhuge Lan's help in her heart and felt grateful,

  she could never admit it aloud!

  So how could she possibly say anything good about Zhuge Lan?

  "What's so good about that guy?"

  "One after another..."

  "Always so concerned about him!"

  "He hasn't even bothered to check on me in all this time."

  "And I'm right in front of you, and you won't even glance at me..."

  [Emotional Points +89999]

  Hyotei muttered, feeling extremely aggrieved—

  she had been chasing Yuki-tei for so long, a period that could be measured in tens of thousands of years.

  But what about Zhuge Lan?   

  He won over Xue Di in a single glance.

  Now Xue Di speaks highly of him—which is actually just the truth.

  The contrast is simply too much!

  But there's nothing she can do.

  Bing Di can't blame Xue Di.

  So she can only grumble to Zhuge Lan.

  —Zhuge Lan: "Stunned, aren't you?"

  "Like I said, a simp will end up with nothing, girl!"

  Zhuge Lan curled her lips beside her, clearly finding Bing Di amusing.

  Her thoughts drifted far away—

  the methods for dealing with female Gs are indeed self-explanatory.

  And for simps ,

  that's even simpler!

  Hahaha—

  just thinking about it is quite entertaining.

  It has to be said that

  Bing Di's initial approach was quite effective.

  Xue Di might have some feelings for Bing Di, or she might just not want to be implicated by her.

  Or perhaps both.

  She always tries to guide Bing Di onto the right path.

  This has given Bing Di a taste of success, and she's enjoying it immensely.

  Like a detective, she constantly analyzes Zhuge Lan's various actions.

  It's worth mentioning that

  because Hyotei and Zhuge Lan didn't have much contact, the only things she could talk about were the Arctic ice plains and the academy.

  And every time she talked about it, Hyotei would get really annoyed—feeling like a donkey tempted by a carrot.

  Furthermore…

  because Yuki-den only replied about Zhuge Lan.

  Every time she received a response,

  Hyotei would feel wronged and incredibly angry…

  yet being able to talk to her crush made her extremely happy.

  These emotions were incredibly contradictory.

  Anger, happiness, resentment, frustration, anticipation…

  all sorts of positive and negative emotions swirled within Hyotei.

  It was truly tormenting her!

  And in this constant and rapid emotional shift, even Hyotei might not have realized—

  she seemed to have awakened some special attribute…

  but that's a story for later.

  Hyotei is now caught in a dilemma…

  after all, her previous behavior was far too deliberate—Yuki-den isn't stupid; she noticed something was wrong long ago.

  Although she initially responded because of Zhuge Lan,

  habit is a powerful force.

  After a while,

  how could the Snow Empress possibly care?

  She quickly reverted to her previous indifferent demeanor

  , focusing solely on her cultivation. No matter what the Ice Empress said, the Snow Empress showed no emotion—

  this was unacceptable to the Ice Empress, who had just tasted success.

  Her beloved was right before her eyes,

  yet she remained completely unresponsive—a situation those who understand, understand.

  The Ice Empress was incredibly itchy.

  Seeing the Snow Empress's continued lack of response,

  she finally hardened her heart—since simple sarcasm wasn't working,

  she would have to resort to badmouthing and wronging Zhuge Lan.

  Although what she said today might anger the other party if it were revealed later…

  —regarding Zhuge Lan's methods in the far north and her various actions at the academy,

  it was impossible for the Ice Empress not to be afraid.

  She didn't want to have children…

  but she couldn't care less now.

  In any case…

  it was much better than this awkward and embarrassing situation!

  For the Snow Empress—

  the Ice Empress, fearless!
