Obviously.
Su Qiangwei is stirring up trouble.
Saying "not inferior to Ma Ran in strength" from the perspective of Grass Hut Academy mbers, it is indeed a heartfelt complint.
Moreover, it can almost be called the highest level of praise!
But the problem is, she wasn’t saying this to the mbers of Grass Hut Academy.
With Zhang Kuang’s personality...
Is it reasonable not to rub Ma Ran into the ground?
Logical and flawless.
Unfortunately, the situation didn’t unfold according to the girl’s script.
After smashing the blood-and-flesh giant incarnation of the White Mane star visitor, a hint of satisfaction and aftertaste flashed through Zhang Kuang’s eyes as if an experienced gourt had just savored a delicate and unique dish.
A gourt who pursues taste will not gorge like a glutton even at a sumptuous feast, but will rather practice restraint to allow their tastebuds proper rest and relaxation.
From the beginning, Zhang Kuang stated he was looking for Lin Qiubai, indicating that he values quality over quantity when facing enemies.
Ma Ran does have decent quality, but he’s ultimately a "civilian officer," not adept at combat.
No dialogue or body language is necessary.
Just a look, and the mbers of the academic society automatically filled in the blanks, finding it quite reasonable that Zhang Kuang didn’t make a move against Ma Ran.
A tough guy who conquered the world with a gun, challenging a gentle, quiet youth to a duel, no matter how you look at it, doesn’t make sense, does it?
Look at Ma Ran now!
Elegant and calm, with a faint scholarly air, wisdom occasionally flashing in his eyes, and a quarter of his hair white.
Wearing the sa Grass Hut Academy uniform as everyone else, yet he carries a different flair, quite eye-catching.
Even though everyone present knows Ma Ran isn’t weak, at first glance, he exudes a full boss vibe, but still, they feel he’s more suited to strategizing and decision-making from afar than rolling up his sleeves for a direct confrontation, wielding intellect as a weapon.
Based on these two points, Zhang Kuang did not fulfill Su Qiangwei’s wishes.
"Demon Child..."
A peculiar expression flashed in Zhang Kuang’s crimson eyes, and he said casually, "Just a wrong title, no need to take it to heart."
At this point, Zhang Kuang’s face showed a demonic smile, "The more you interact, you’ll find that I’m actually a nice person."
Nice person?
Hehehe...
Su Qiangwei looked Zhang Kuang up and down, feeling that his understanding of the words ’nice person’ might be seriously skewed.
Though Zhang Kuang might not be young in age, people from Cangming Star seed to maintain a youthful appearance as if their looks froze post-adulthood.
Since samples are few, this conclusion may be severely flawed.
Su Qiangwei must admit, Zhang Kuang is dignified and exceptionally heroic in appearance.
If only he’d keep a straight face and not smile, from a distance, he’d look like a character stepping out from a comic into the real world.
While not possessing the stunning beauty of the Sword Master, he can still be described as having sword-like brows, bright eyes, and a valiant deanor.
Yet his flaw is also obvious—he smiles too much.
A smile unlike those of normal people, always making one’s scalp tingle and body shiver.
Bearing a face scoring almost ninety, yet due to that frightening smile, at least a hundred points must be deducted.
"Granny Qiangwei..."
Zhang Kuang grinned, revealing a set of perfectly aligned, ghostly white teeth, saying without a trace of guilt, "I’m new here and don’t know anyone."
"My livelihood on Earth is really a bother to you all!"
Is there a problem with calling her Granny?
Huh?
No problem at all!
Before Zhang Kuang was born over a hundred years ago, Su Qiangwei, who was recorded in the "Ice River Calamity," was already seventeen years old.
Although the passage of ti on Cangming Star is different from Earth, and Su Qiangwei is not yet eighteen now, from any angle, it’s quite reasonable and lawful for Zhang Kuang to call her Granny!
"..."
The girl looked up at the sky, silent.
"Senior Qiangwei" wasn’t forthcoming, instead ca a remark breaking defenses.
What could I say...?
It’s just like Zhang Kuang, ranking high above Lin Qiubai, yet below Ma Ran in her list of disliked individuals!
She dares wager this guy absolutely did it on purpose!
The girl dared not express her anger and tugged Ma Ran’s sleeve in grievance.
It’s decided, it’s you! Ma Ran!
Go on!
The ti for avenging your partner has matured, go reveal your sacred might and slap Zhang Kuang’s face hard!
With their tacit understanding, no need for unnecessary words.
Just a glance, and Ma Ran understood her thoughts almost entirely.
Unfortunately, this ti the black and white-haired boy rely sneered, his lips moved as he silently uttered a sentence.
"Not bad, Demon Child, combat power not below Su Qiangwei."
The girl naturally understands lip-reading.
Seeing Ma Ran’s response, she was so angry she almost shut down on the spot.
Sigh!
This petty guy!
Learning all the negatives instead of positives!
This is all old history now...
Things that happened a minute ago and he still rembers!
The girl panicked a bit.
Could he really be upset?
Crack!
A crisp sound.
Su Qiangwei crushed a walnut barehandedly and sneakily handed it to Ma Ran, "We have an alien friend watching."
"Don’t fight among ourselves!"
"Can we make up?"
Su Qiangwei is still Su Qiangwei, this childish modus operandi is sothing others really can’t emulate.
Ma Ran pouted, discreetly glanced at the trembling invisible 98725 in the air, and after so thought, politely declined, "Thanks, just give a dried fish."
The girl grinned, pulling out two strips of dried fish from her snack bag, handing them over, "There’s so truth in saying those who like fish are smart..."
Hohoho!
Master Qiangwei knew it!
Just give the pretentious guy a way out and he won’t refuse the goodwill gesture of the face-slapping warrior!
This is the bond between comrades!
Usual small squabbles don’t matter, but concerning matters of principles, clarity prevails.
"What nonsense are you both up to again?"
President Huang, who had arrived on scene at so point, felt the atmosphere was a bit odd, walked over to Zhang Kuang.
Old Huang’s face displayed a friendly smile, "Long live the friendship between Earth and Cangming Star."
"Even though it’s our first eting, we will offer Zhang Kuang any help within our power."
"Your living needs—all covered by Grass Hut Academy."
Huang Weiguo hadn’t forgotten that Ma Ran had made a promise to Lin Qiubai: no matter the nature of the visitor from Cangming Star, they would be well treated.
Furthermore...
When Demon Child Zhang Kuang landed on Earth, he only smashed a large door, causing no injuries.
Though fierce in deanor, exuding a strong criminal vibe, in actual action, he helped demolish the blood-and-flesh giant, foiling the invasion plan of the White Mane star people!
In so sense, Zhang Kuang provided imnse help!
Moreover, this Demon Child is clearly a considerable asset.
Therefore, both publicly and privately, extending goodwill towards Zhang Kuang is sensible and justified.
For reasons unknown, Old Huang abruptly added, "Plenty of good wine."
Ma Ran flickered over in front of Zhang Kuang, his eyes steady, yet his tone carried a hint of warning, "Demon Child."
"Such tactics shouldn’t be used on allies."
