Long Yuxue pursed her thin lips, her gaze towards Tang Wulin becoming much more complicated...
Apparently, she didn't expect the latter to actually win the bet, scoring two free meals!
Jiang Wuyue spoke generously, "Go ahead, the smaller the number of the window, the more expensive and nutritious the food inside!"
It's just the two of them, shouldn't cost me that much military merit!
Tang Wulin chuckled lightly, "Thank you for the reminder, officer! Let's go, Gu Yue, to window number one!"
He wouldn't give up on a feast just because of Jiang Wuyue's words, after all, it's not his military merit being spent!
Gu Yue nodded slightly, "Mm!"
With that said, the two headed towards window number one...
Due to the high prices, there were no officers in line, so they started ordering right away!
At this moment, Jiang Qiyue approached Jiang Wuyue, "Brother, is Tang Wulin really that strong? Or did you hold back?"
Jiang Wuyue sighed at this and explained in a voice only she could hear, "No, I used my full strength in the spar just now, but his hand felt as hard as steel. Clearly, his strength surpasses mine!"
Though his pride wouldn't let him admit it, this was the truth!
Jiang Wuyue swallowed a bit, his gaze towards Tang Wulin and Gu Yue's beautiful eyes carrying more profound meaning...
To be able to overpower my brother in strength, no wonder he received a first-class soldier rating!
Long Yuxue suddenly interrupted their conversation, reminding, "July, I think you should take a look at window number one!"
Trusting her, Jiang Qiyue immediately glanced over and was wide-eyed when she saw the pile of dishes Tang Wulin held...
She exclaimed, "Bro... Brother, look over there..."
Jiang Wuyue looked over with confusion, his face instantly turning stiff...
He knew the food at window number one was dozens of times more expensive than other windows!!
Even with his rank, he only ate there occasionally, but the other party spared no expense, ordering nearly twenty dishes between them!!
Thinking of this, he walked over with a stern expression, scolding slightly, "Although I agreed to cover your lunch, wasting is shameful; the food at window number one is very energy-dense, can you finish all this?"
Tang Wulin paused for a moment, then replied earnestly, "Reporting to the officer, we are not wasting; this is just our normal meal size!!"
It seems window number one is indeed expensive, otherwise, why would even he almost lose his temper!
Gu Yue also added with a faint smile, "Officer, didn't you say we could order whatever we want? Or is your word not dependable?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wuyue gritted his teeth and sat down next to them, folding his arms, "Fine, go ahead and eat! I'm going to sit here and watch, and if you can't finish, it's on you!!"
Tang Wulin paid no mind and immediately began to feast, finishing a plate in just a few dozen seconds!
Gu Yue was much more elegant, using a spoon to deliver mouthfuls quietly...
After about half an hour, Tang Wulin finally put down his chopsticks, smiling at Jiang Wuyue, "Thank you for the meal, the food at window number one is truly excellent!"
Gu Yue also took out a napkin to wipe the corner of her mouth, "Mm, it's on par with the food outside!"
Jiang Wuyue, who had been in shock, was momentarily speechless, muttering internally, "This guy... was he a starving ghost in a past life? He actually finished it all!"
The most important thing was that his military merit, which was meant for raising his rank, was now reduced by a tenth, causing much heartache!
Jiang Qiyue, who witnessed the whole scene, was also panicked because she had also promised to cover Tang Wulin's meals for the entire next day!
This single meal used up one-tenth of her brother's military merit; if it were a whole day, she would lose at least one-third of her own!
Thinking of this, she immediately clung onto Long Yuxue's arm, pleading, "Yuxue, aren't we the best of friends?"
Long Yuxue turned aside, coughing, "July, don't look at me, I can't make decisions on this matter, but since you're a woman, maybe they'll go easy on you?"
Jiang Qiyue pouted, feigning tears, "Boo hoo, even Yuxue can't help, looks like I'm doomed!"
...
Xingluo Empire!
In the distance, the Dark Bell and the Demon Emperor were leading hundreds of evil Soul Masters swiftly forward...
After about ten minutes, all the evil Soul Masters stopped walking, concealing themselves around a massive sect...
A deacon of Title Douluo level reported to the two leading women, "Reporting to Lord of Dark Bell, Demon Emperor, we have already annexed about a dozen small sects, and the one before us is considered a top-tier sect within the Xingluo Empire!"
The Demon Emperor's expression remained unchanged, but the Dark Bell squinted her beautiful eyes in interest, "Oh? How strong is this sect?"
The deacon answered, "Within the sect, there is approximately one Hyper Douluo, two Titled Douluos, and several Soul Douluos!"
The Xingluo Empire was generally weaker in Soul Master strength, so even a top-tier sect only had one Hyper Douluo level powerhouse!
The Dark Bell nodded slightly, commanding coldly, "Action!"
The next second, the Holy Spirit Cult's Evil Soul Masters, who had been concealing their presences, began their slow infiltration...
Upon discovering the guarding sect disciples, they dropped all pretenses and unleashed their Martial Souls, wantonly slaughtering...
Caught off guard, dozens of cold corpses quickly fell to the ground...
At this time, the other sect disciples noticed something was amiss and also released their soul weapons and Martial Souls, preparing to defend...
Meanwhile, another group looked panic-stricken, "What? So many Evil Soul Masters launching an attack! We must report to the Sect Master and the Elders at once!"
"Damn it, the Holy Spirit Cult attacking other small sects was one thing, but to dare attack our sect is simply too much!!"
"Indeed, the Holy Spirit Cult is truly arrogant! Do they think we're pushovers?"
"Don't be afraid; at worst, it's just death. Fight them to the end!! The fifth soul skill..."
Soon, the Sect Master of the sect, leading the Elders, arrived in time, rallying the sect disciples to resist...
In a short time, it was difficult to discern victory or defeat...
Witnessing all this, the Dark Bell clapped a few times, praising, "As expected of a top-tier sect in the Xingluo Empire, they truly have impressive rallying power!"
The Demon Emperor merely cast a cold, murderous glance, readying for battle...
Meanwhile, the man, known as the "Sect Master," showed signs of apprehension...
For across from him, he sensed a strong sense of impending danger from the two...
