Chapter 80: Su Ming Complains, The Dog System Keeps Playing Mysteries!

Xiao Wu, understanding the situation, wholeheartedly agreed and even shared with Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong about the things Flender sold in his shop and the exorbitant prices he charged.

Ning Rongrong said, "I didn't expect the head of Shrek Academy to be such a swindler, scamming people for a few gold soul coins. These amounts don't even reach the tip of my allowance."

Xiao Wu: ...

Zhu Zhuqing: "That's because you're from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, the richest sect in the world. I heard it's related to your martial spirit, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."

Ning Rongrong giggled, "Hehe, that's right. Our pagoda has a treasure-seeking ability, and the stronger the soul master, the stronger that ability. And now, thanks to the system's benefits, I've gone from having innate spirit power of level nine to having full innate spirit power. I'm now the most talented person in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, already designated by my father as the sect's heir!"

Xiao Wu enviously exclaimed, "Wow! Just like my brother said, Rongrong, you really are a little rich lady!"

Ning Rongrong: "Not really! Oh, by the way, Zhuqing, I've been meaning to ask you—what level is your innate spirit power? I thought I would surpass you this time!"

Zhu Zhuqing: "My innate spirit power is level nine."

Ning Rongrong nodded to herself, confirming her suspicion. Zhuqing indeed worked much harder than she did.

[Later on, Flender has even more money-making schemes, but none of them are particularly legitimate. I'll write about them when they come up.]

[Oh, right! Today, during the first stage of the Shrek Academy entrance test, when soul power levels were measured, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's levels were completely unexpected!]

Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing saw that Su Ming mentioned them in his diary, exchanged amused glances, and thought to themselves, Let him be shocked.

[Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing's soul power levels should have been around level twenty-six and twenty-seven, but today they were revealed to be thirty-four and thirty-five. This isn't right—something's seriously off!]

[There's no way they could've reached these levels at their current age unless they had full innate spirit power!]

[After we get more familiar once they've enrolled, I'll definitely ask them about their innate spirit power. Could it be, as the system mentioned, that my involvement has caused a butterfly effect in this world?]

[Or could this be a parallel world of the one I know?]

[But honestly, I don't believe either explanation. I feel like the system is pulling my leg!]

[It makes sense that Xiao Wu and Tang San's situations would change due to my presence, but I've had no contact with Ning Rongrong or Zhu Zhuqing, so how could I have caused a butterfly effect?]

[As for this being a parallel world, I think that's pretty unlikely!]

[Damn, this stupid system just keeps being cryptic, refusing to tell me the truth and making me guess on my own!]

System: ...

Host, is it really okay to badmouth me in your diary? I can see this, you know!

Ning Rongrong giggled to herself: You may not have directly influenced us, but your system did. And by the looks of it, it's only trying to help you.

Through the diary, Xiao Wu asked the other two: What are you going to say if my brother asks about your innate spirit power?

Ning Rongrong: We'll just tell the truth. It's not like it's our fault—it's the system's doing. If Su Ming really wants to check, he can find out the truth himself. Lying would only make things worse.

Zhu Zhuqing: I agree. We should just be honest. Besides, there's no way Su Ming could suspect we all have systems just because our innate spirit power differs from what he knows. That's too far-fetched.

Xiao Wu: Then we'll just leave it to the system to handle. Let's see how it explains things.
