Chapter 273: Hello, Brother-in-law
“So Master, how do you want to fight?”
Tactical control was taken by the Master, and Ling Mo had no choice but to follow the arrangement.
However, he could guess the Master’s thoughts. In the next match, he should have the Shrek Seven Devils take the field.
Because of his own intervention, they hadn’t taken the field together for a long time and needed to warm up properly.
The Shrek Seven Devils’ tactical system could perfectly fuse even if Ling Mo took the field, because his Martial Soul was versatile.
Any formation could pair with it perfectly, with no issues at all, and it would even be more perverse.
Sure enough.
“In the next match, the Shrek Seven Devils will take the field. You haven’t cooperated on a real battlefield for a long time.
This first round is for you to warm up. I won’t arrange specific tactics; everything on the field will still be controlled by Xiao San.”
It was about as Ling Mo had guessed; the Master really wanted the Shrek Seven Devils to take the field.
“Teacher, what about Xiao Mo?”
Tang San took on the heavy responsibility, but still asked. All along, Ling Mo had been their tactical core.
Now with the sudden change, they seemed a bit unsure of how to fight.
“I have my own arrangement for Xiao Mo. The real trump card should be saved for last to use; otherwise… it wouldn’t be a trump card.”
The Master explained, and everyone indicated their understanding.
Everyone agreed on Ling Mo’s power; there was no need to question it.
Therefore… saving him for the critical moment made sense.
“Sigh, I originally wanted to keep lying back and winning a few more rounds, but it looks like that’s not happening…”
Oscar said with a depressed look, expressing his frustration.
“You brat! Get your spirits up. No team that has made it this far is simple.
If you win the championship by lying back, would that championship be yours?”
Flander unhesitatingly rebuked him, scolding Oscar until he hurriedly shrank his neck and retreated to the side.
Ling Mo expressed great disappointment. He had originally thought the Master would arrange some ingenious tactics, but in the end, he didn’t get to witness any.
But that made sense too. This was only the first match; who would throw out their king bomb right at the start? Even TV dramas wouldn’t dare portray it that way.
The first match was for the Shrek Seven Devils to re-gel their tactical coordination. As for when Ling Mo would take the field, that was unknown.
“Alright, there are still two days left. Everyone, make the most of the time to cultivate and adjust your conditions well…”
After a simple explanation, the specific tactical arrangements would have to wait until the day of the match.
After the meeting ended, Ling Mo said goodbye to Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong and went out.
These two girls’ bodies were very weak; after all, who could withstand that intense battle all night last night.
As soon as Ling Mo walked out of the hotel, he discovered several pairs of eyes watching him.
With a meaningful smile, he said nothing and glanced at the city road in that dark corner but didn’t go over.
“Interesting! With so many eyes watching me, how afraid are they that I’ll run away?”
Ever since entering Spirit City, these informants had always been there, but Ling Mo was too lazy to pay attention to them and saw no need to.
Ling Mo didn’t need to think to know what Spirit Hall wanted to do, but… he didn’t think they could accomplish anything.
“Sigh, forget it! Spirit City is so small; there’s nothing good to stroll around…”
Ling Mo casually looked around a few times, lost interest, and returned to the hotel.
However, he didn’t go back to the Shrek Academy side but headed to the Heaven Water Academy residence area.
On the way, Ling Mo discovered a sneaky figure.
“Damn, you punk, instead of staying properly in your room, you come here to peep at beauties…”
This person was none other than Dai Mubai.
“Damn, don’t shout; be careful someone hears…”
This sudden loud shout nearly scared Dai Mubai to death. Turning around, he saw it was Ling Mo and immediately felt depressed.
“Which beauty have you got your eye on? Let me take a look…”
Ling Mo was unfazed and strode over boldly. Through the narrow room gap, he clearly saw the Heaven Water Academy group discussing something in the meeting room.
Shui Bing’er and Xue Wu were also inside. But he noticed that Shui Yue’er next to Shui Bing’er kept glancing outside from time to time.
It seemed she knew Dai Mubai was outside and kept looking out uneasily.
“Nice! In the blink of an eye, you’ve become my brother-in-law…”
Ling Mo figured it out; turns out Dai Mubai had hooked up with Shui Yue’er.
“Damn! When did you hook up with Yue’er’s sister?”
Dai Mubai was stunned upon hearing that. When did Ling Mo get involved with Shui Bing’er? Why didn’t he know anything about it?
This was bad; she was clearly older than him, yet he had to lower himself a level to be her brother-in-law.
“Haha! Not bad, Little White. Call me brother-in-law and let’s hear it…”
Ling Mo was thrilled. He had noticed something between those two earlier and hadn’t expected them to actually hook up.
“Tch, it’s not certain yet. Why call you brother-in-law? You should think first about how to explain to Zhu Qing…”
Based on Dai Mubai’s understanding of Zhu Zhuqing, Ling Mo messing around like this was sure to cause problems.
He had no idea that Zhu Zhuqing already knew about Ling Mo’s matters.
If he knew, he would probably collapse.
Why? Why can’t you forgive me for messing around, but you turn a blind eye to Ling Mo messing around?
Was the gap between people really that big?
“Cut the crap. Hurry up and call me brother-in-law, or you won’t get to see Little Yue’er…”
Ling Mo said with a sly smile. It would be easy to keep Dai Mubai from seeing Shui Yue’er; as long as Shui Bing’er said the word, the always obedient Shui Yue’er definitely wouldn’t dare meet him.
“You… fine, you win! So, brother-in-law, first time meeting, how about a gift…”
Dai Mubai itched with hatred but thought about it and directly started extorting.
“What first time meeting? We’re all so familiar; what gift or no gift, that hurts feelings…”
Ling Mo immediately sensed something wrong. He had gotten this cheap advantage, but… it seemed like he was about to bleed heavily.
“See… this time, I’m not meeting you as a classmate, but as a brother-in-law.
So, doesn’t this count as our first meeting?”
Dai Mubai said with a serious face, and Ling Mo immediately felt depressed.
It seemed to make sense. Damn… he got schemed by this kid.
“Brother-in-law…”
At this moment, someone ran out from the meeting room and sweetly called out to Ling Mo.
No need to think; no one called him that except Shui Yue’er.
This voice was really sweet!
“Good little sister-in-law!”
Ling Mo replied. In less than a moment, Shui Bing’er and Xue Wu also came out.
“What are you all doing?”
Looking at the few people squeezed in the passageway, Shui Bing’er said depressedly.
But upon seeing Ling Mo, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes.
“Nothing, sister! I’m asking brother-in-law for a gift. With so many treasures, he shouldn’t be reluctant, right?”
Shui Yue’er said mischievously.
Ling Mo was dumbfounded upon hearing that.
Damn, have these two colluded?
Looking back, Dai Mubai was grinning slyly at him, while Shui Yue’er had an expectant look.
“It’s over; this is going to cost me! Little sister-in-law wants a gift; it wouldn’t be right not to give one…”
Ling Mo muttered. He should have come later; why did he have to come at this time.
