Shen Yushu, too, stared at Zhong Yongliang in disbelief. This thing had gotten this strong? No—she'd have to find him a few more tasks to gauge his strength, and see whether he was a match for Arrow Brand Bro! And if he was stronger than Arrow Brand Bro, she'd have to think of a way to get rid of this creature.
"Oh, Xiaoliangzi, I really didn't expect this—you've made me see you in a whole new light!" Shen Yushu said in surprise.
"Haha, of course! Xiaoshu, would you say I'm qualified now to be Yaoyao's personal bodyguard?" Zhong Yongliang thought Shen Yushu genuinely admired him. And no wonder—with his current strength, his mindset had inevitably shifted, and he believed himself the strongest of all.
"Now? I don't think so, not yet. That Li Biaohan was the weakest of the lot. Beating him only shows you have a chance to become Sister Yaoyao's personal bodyguard—but only a chance!" Shen Yushu said. "Next, I'll give you a few more tasks to test you. If you complete them, I'll recommend you to Sister Yaoyao to be her personal bodyguard!"
Shen Yushu had started stringing Zhong Yongliang along again. Even if he passed the tasks, it was only a recommendation—and if Gu Mengyao refused in the end, all his efforts would have been for nothing.
But Zhong Yongliang's confidence was inflated now, and naturally he didn't catch the mockery in Shen Yushu's words. Instead, he was eager to prove himself: "Sure, go ahead—tell me who to hit and I'll hit them. Tell me how many times, and I'll do it!"
"There's a man named You Panhu. He has a Yellow Rank expert and a Mystic Rank expert at his side. Can you handle them?" Shen Yushu had set her sights on You Panhu again.
"Yellow Rank and Mystic Rank? Piece of cake. Tell me where they are!" Hearing their ranks, Zhong Yongliang nodded and accepted at once.
"They're in the Biology Department, pharmaceutical major..." Shen Yushu said.
"All right, I'm off to deal with them!" Zhong Yongliang nodded, strode out of the cafeteria, and went to find You Panhu and his men.
Shen Yushu sensed something was off, too. Zhong Yongliang ought to know how formidable a Mystic Rank expert was, yet judging by how he'd dismissed them just now, he seemed not to fear Mystic Rank experts at all?
"Sister Yaoyao, something seems wrong. Could Zhong Yongliang already be an Earth Rank expert?" Shen Yushu said, staring at Zhong Yongliang's receding figure in disbelief.
"How strange... Xiaoshu, don't drop a rock on your own foot. What if he really is that strong—are you actually going to let him be my personal bodyguard?" Gu Mengyao said, somewhat speechless.
"No way. My final task will be to have him duel Arrow Brand Bro. Only if he beats Arrow Brand Bro will I recommend him," Shen Yushu said.
"Oh, so you're just setting him up..." Gu Mengyao nodded, then frowned. "But what if he really is stronger than Wei Zhao?"
"That..." Shen Yushu hesitated, then said, "Sister Yaoyao, honestly, if he really is stronger than Arrow Brand Bro, then if he comes to pester you, there's nothing we can do about it..."
"That's true." Gu Mengyao thought it over. "Then... would Wei Zhao stand a chance against him?"
