Ming Bao reluctantly pursed his lips and confessed, "I really don't want to talk to that guy."
The thought of Ming Asi's face made Ming Bao lose his appet.i.te entirely.
Rong Li was on the verge of shouting at him to leave, but he restrained himself, thanks to his good upbringing. However, suppressing his frustration was taking a toll on His Highness Rong Li.
"Wow, it's His Highness Asi, His Highness Asi has arrived!"
"Oh my goodness, the Qin Family's Young Masters are here. Quick, quick, pinch me."
"Why does it feel like my eyes are insufficient?"
The striking appearance of the Young Masters left the female students present in awe.
Although they were currently standing in an ordinary dining hall, to them, it felt as though they were on a picturesque mountainside, surrounded by blossoms and willows. It was like a third of a centimeter had been added to their height. Thousands of peaches and plums were in full bloom, and there were several exceptionally handsome and extraordinary Young Masters.
"I heard that His Highness Crown Prince of the Ultramarine Province got beat up by a quilt. Where is he?" Ali followed Ming Asi and made a rather offensive remark. Upon hearing this, the Ultramarine Province's attendees clenched their teeth in frustration.
"It's quite embarra.s.sing. My Big Brother isn't seriously injured. Sorry to disappoint you," Duan Yue responded with a smile, turning to address Ali.
Ali pursed his lips and, seeing Duan Yue's retort, opted not to continue speaking.
Ming Asi swiftly approached Mo Lian and scanned the area. He furrowed his brow and inquired, "Where is she?"
"Why do you care?" Mo Lian and Duan Yue retorted in unison.
Ming Asi's companion's expression darkened. "I have something to discuss with her."
"Get lost," Mo Lian tersely replied.
Ming Asi's handsome countenance darkened. "Mo Lian, let's have a civil conversation."
Observing their interaction, Rong Li contemplated making his exit. He couldn't bear to continue exposing his embarra.s.sing situation to so many accomplished young individuals.
Crown Prince Mo had earned renown throughout the Three Provinces Continent for his extraordinary weapon-smithing skills. Was Rong Li, on the other hand, going to gain notoriety for being beaten up?
"Hey, Big Brother Rong Li, Big Brother Rong Li," Ming Bao persistently blocked his way.
Rong Li's pride was so wounded that it seemed ready to emit an unsightly glow.
"What do you want?" In any other situation, he would shout and shoot furious glares, likely intimidating many. But now…
He had been beaten so severely that his facial bruises showed no sign of fading. His eyes remained almost completely shut, rendering him incapable of glaring or projecting any semblance of dignity.
However, the small gap between his nearly closed eyes unintentionally made him appear particularly comical.
"Hahahahaha!" Little Fatty suddenly burst into laughter, drawing everyone's attention as though they were regarding a valiant warrior.
To laugh in the face of the Crown Prince of the Ultramarine Province, ignoring his status, displayed exceptional courage.
"Look, look, he can't even open his eyes!"
Rong Li's face burned with a mixture of embarra.s.sment and anger.
Xu Youniang spontaneously rebuked, "Such insolence!"
"Even the Crown Prince of the Ultramarine Province dares to put on airs in our Divine Province?" Mo Lian cast a disapproving glance at Xu Youniang.
Duan Yue chuckled and remarked, "Since we're all part of the same academy, the only distinctions are those of schools and students. We're comrades here, and within the academy, we're all equals! There's no room for insolence."
With an abrupt turn of his head, Rong Li forcibly extricated himself from the crowd. He had no intention of continuing the conversation with them.
That was humiliation!
