Chapter 22: Ning Rongrong, Different from "Cognition"
"What?!"
Xiao Wu pushed Dai Mubai aside, squatted down, and looked at Ma Hongjun seriously, "Fatty, what did you say?"
Ma Hongjun repeated his words again, feeling extremely aggrieved.
"That woman? Who is that woman?" Xiao Wu asked, seizing the key point.
Since Ma Hongjun said this to Tang San and Dai Mubai, it proves that they all know who the woman Ma Hongjun was talking about is. Xiao Wu looked at Tang San with a puzzled look.
Tang San's expression was a bit serious. "A woman who's with Xu Qianye is a Soul Emperor."
"A Soul Emperor?" Xiao Wu was slightly surprised. "And he's in cahoots with Xu Qianye?"
When did Xu Qianye meet the Soul Emperor?
When Xu Qianye is mentioned, people can't help but think of Gongyang Shao.
Xiao Wu frowned. "Could she be here to avenge Gongyang Shao?"
Dai Mubai chimed in, "Since they've said that, isn't it basically a declaration of war?"
Xiao Wu was displeased and stomped her feet, "She's going too far!"
"Using their high soul power level to bully the weak? They're no good!"
Xiao Wu was fuming, looking like she was about to rush out and cause trouble for someone at any moment.
At this moment, Tang San, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but pat Xiao Wu's shoulder and said, "Xiao Wu, don't be impulsive. We can't afford to mess with them."
"Brother!" Xiao Wu pouted, "We can't just let Fatty suffer this injustice for nothing!"
Tang San shook his head, his eyes resolute. "Of course we can't let Fatty suffer this bullying for nothing, but that woman is quite powerful, and we can't deal with her using ordinary methods."
Dai Mubai nodded in agreement. "Mistress, so what do you mean?"
"Attack her, catch her off guard."

Nighttime, the Heavenly Battle Arena, indoors.
Upon hearing that His Highness the Crown Prince had arrived, the person in charge of the Soul Arena quickly came over to pay his respects.
He didn't know why the Crown Prince had come, so after properly entertaining him, he tentatively asked, "Your Highness, what is the purpose of your visit?"
He remembered that nothing had happened in the Soul Arena that required His Highness the Crown Prince to come and resolve.
Mo Xuewei sat on the sofa, relaxed and leisurely. She smiled and said, "It's nothing. I heard that a dark horse has appeared in the Soul Arena, so I wanted to see what's going on with this dark horse. I heard that the team is called the Shrek Seven Devils. I need the registration information of those seven people."
Shrek Seven Devils?
The person in charge nodded. "Yes, Your Highness, I'll go find it right away!"
He then obtained the registration information of those seven people and handed it to Mo Xuewei.
Mo Xuewei took it and began to read it.
Qian Renxue was behind her, watching along with her.
The registration information above was correct and exactly the same as what Mo Xuewei remembered.
She and Qian Renxue exchanged a glance, shook their heads, and indicated that there was no problem.
"I also need their individual match records," Mo Xuewei added. "In addition, I need information about Gongyang Shao's private duel this morning. You should have a record of that, right?"
"Yes, yes! I'll go get it for you right away!" The person in charge nodded hurriedly and immediately went to get all the competition records of the Shrek Seven Devils for Mo Xuewei.
The Heaven Dou Grand Arena is far superior to other arenas; its real-time broadcasting is among the most advanced.
Mo Xuewei played the recording of Gongyang Shao's battle against Gongyang Shao. The person who appeared on the screen during the battle was a girl with long brown hair. "Ning Rongrong?"
Mo Xuewei blurted it out, but upon closer inspection, she felt it didn't quite resemble Ning Rongrong.
The recording wasn't particularly clear, but based on what Mo Xuewei knew, the girl in the video who looked just like Ning Rongrong didn't seem to be Ning Rongrong from this period.
She frowned slightly, feeling something was off.
When support-type Soul Masters battle each other, the competition will certainly not be about Martial Souls or Soul Skills.
Dugu Yan once said that Gongyang Shao was very skilled in hand-to-hand combat, but Ning Rongrong's skills on screen were actually comparable to Gongyang Shao's.
This……
The competition between Gongyang Shao and Ning Rongrong ended with Gongyang Shao advancing to the next level. Then, it was Gongyang Shao's turn to compete against Tang San.
The use of martial spirits and soul power was prohibited in their one-on-one duel. Tang San said it was for the sake of fairness, but in reality, this was just an excuse to avoid giving outsiders something to criticize.
Gongyang Shaocai's strength was exhausted by Ning Rongrong, so even if Tang San won, it would be an unfair victory.
However, in this competition, Gongyang Shao maintained the dominant position throughout, which was completely different from his match with Ning Rongrong.
Qian Renxue tilted her head as she looked at the competition record, her brows furrowed, lost in thought.
Seeing how intently the two of them were watching, the person in charge didn't dare to breathe too loudly. He was so nervous that he was sweating profusely.
He always felt there was something amiss about this atmosphere.
However, Mo Xuewei then spoke up, "You can go out now."
She looked up and glanced at the person in charge.
The person in charge's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately fled, saying, "Yes, Your Highness!"
The words had barely left his lips when he was gone.
After everyone left, Qian Renxue listened behind the door to make sure no one was outside before speaking, "Xuewei, something's wrong with Ning Rongrong."
Mo Xuewei looked at Qian Renxue, "Your Highness, you noticed it too."
"I remember you told me that she likes Tang San." Qian Renxue walked to Mo Xuewei's side and sat on the armrest of the sofa. Her hands were on the sofa behind Mo Xuewei, and she was a little close to Mo Xuewei.
"Huh?" Mo Xuewei and she exchanged a glance, and her gaze involuntarily drifted downwards to her rosy lips.
Mo Xuewei's cheeks flushed slightly, but she tried her best to remain calm and normal. "Yes, but what does that have to do with her acting strangely?"
She thought she and Qian Renxue were on the same page, but in reality, although they both felt that Ning Rongrong was acting strangely, they had different reasons for it.
Qian Renxue said, "Take a close look at the way she and Tang San looked at each other when she left the arena after losing to Gongyang Shao."
As she spoke, Qian Renxue paused the video recording and pointed to the blurry image of the two people staring at each other.
Mo Xuewei leaned closer to take a look, "Hiss—"
She frowned. Tang San and Ning Rongrong inside seemed to be exchanging some kind of information. And looking at it this way, this Ning Rongrong was really different from the Ning Rongrong she "knew". How could Ning Rongrong at this time have such a deep mind?
"From the contest between Ning Rongrong and Gongyang Shao, it can be seen that Ning Rongrong seemed to be probing whether Gongyang Shao had anything. When she left the arena, her eye contact with Tang San not only conveyed the emotion of conveying information, but also had a visual sense of triumph and self-aggrandizement."
"At the very end, when Gongyang Shao fell, Tang San did make a move, but the arrowhead didn't come out of his sleeve. Qianye probably only saw Tang San reveal the hidden weapon, but in reality, he didn't release it."
"This arrowhead was fired from the other side, which wasn't recorded, meaning it was Ning Rongrong."
