Second Session

"I can't believe it!" Shouted Rongrong surprised and with a little indignation looking at Haotian "You only had needed two sessions to break through the first level!"

One week had passed since Haotian's and Rongrong's first session of training the Heart Separation Control, as they promised they had met again over Shrek for a second session.

Rongrong had waited for another normal session, preparing for at least 10 before Haotian was able to master the technique, but against her prognostics, he was able to break through the first layer just this quickly with only one more.

Now after the session, they were both sitting over a treatable at Rongrong's dormitory, in a beautiful terrace where Shrek's gardens were in full view.

Rongrong was dressed in a one-piece white dress. It has little adornments, creating a simple pure and clean image that boosted Rongrong's cuteness. Rongrong having chosen and bought for the occasion.

On the other hand, Haotian wasn't wearing his uniform as it would be bad being seeing in another academy with it, trying to avoid unneeded problems. He was wearing casual clothes, black pants with a red shirt.

"It really helps to have a great teacher" Haotian said before serving a little of tea.

"Don't joke with me, Tian!" Rongrong said with an angry tone.

"Did I lie?" Haotian made an offended look "You had just broken through the 4th layer and you are already near 5th, even when you are not even a Spirit Ancestor yet. It's all thanks to you that I am able to progress so quickly."

This was the truth, in this session, Haotian had focused more on Rongrong and he clearly felt some kind of link with her. It wasn't a bond of his spirit, but clearly, Haotian's spirit resonated with Rongrong's spirit, both of them gaining with it.

"With this, there's no more need for my help" Rongrong explained "Now you can cultivate on your own." She made a downcast look, showing a sad look as she had lost the opportunity to have more meetings with Haotian.

"Rong'Er?" Haotian said worriedly.

Rongrong quickly realized that she was showing her emotions, she quickly putting a strong act "Not like it matter to me, good for both. I won't need to waste my time with you. Anyway, I will go to search for my 4th ring shortly so I won't have time for that."

"And I thought that you also enjoyed our meetings. It seems that it was one-sided" Haotian lamented.

"W-wait! It's not like th-!" Rongrong hurriedly said, but once he saw Haotian's face that had a big grin over it, she quickly stopped "Ah!" She shouted frustrated "Stop making fun of me!" She said puffing her cheeks.

"Okay, okay. I will stop" Haotian laughed "Now being serious. We are friends and I really enjoy our time together, so even without the sessions, we can meet again for a little date." Listening to the date part Rongrong blushed a little "Eating something and walking around."

"Yes, it would be good" Rongrong nodded.

"Moreover, I think that cultivation at the same time would bring greater gains. I would be able to learn from you who has a greater understanding and you would be able to gain another view." Haotian explained.

Rongrong couldn't help to accept it. She had explosive growth with her technique and it was only after 2 sessions, she being mostly sure that it was related to their session rather than the Tulip. If this continues, it would greatly help her.

Then, they started talking about each other, explaining a little about their life at the academy and what was happening in the present.

"So it was really Dugu Bo who chased you away from Heaven Dou Academy" Haotian showed surprise when Rongrong explained the meeting with Dugu Bo that happened similar than in the novel. Of course, Haotian already knew about it.

"Yes! That old bastard chased us away!" Rongrong said indignantly "How could he be so prepotent and mean!" She said angrily "I had tried for my grandpas to punish him, but they negated."

"What a pity, I would love to be with you in the same academy," Haotian said with regret "And you are right Dugu Bo is certainly a bastard. However, he also has his good side."

"Are you on his side?" Rongrong inquired with a sharp look.

"Of course not, I also had my great share problems thanks to him. The truth is that I joined the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan because of him" Haotian explained the overall story with Dugu Bo and the help provided by the clan.

"He almost killed you!" Rongrong said with a mix of shock, anger indignation. "Oh? I know!" Rongrong face brightened as she thought about something "You should just leave that academy. You had almost been killed and they didn't help at all. You should join Shrek. I am sure that with your talent and strength there won't have any problem!"

"Thanks for the offer, but I'll need to deny it" Haotian answered "A lot of things happened, but in the end, I reached a deal, gaining a lot from it" 'A 4th spirit ring, 2 million years old spirit bones, 2 dragon cores and immortal herbs to boost the girls' "We are in a good relation now, so there's no problem. Moreover, the Continental Tournament is near and I won't want to betray my teammates leaving with such a short time."

"It's that so. It seems that you can't avoid it" Rongrong said with a sad tone. Then, she turned serious "Tian, one thing. You talked about your teammates. Is one of them your girlfriend?"

That was a question that Rongrong was waiting to ask, talking the talk about the teammates and academy as her opportunity. Haotian was powerful, handsome, funny and had a good character, it wasn't strange to be already with someone. If he wasn't, she might...

'The question has come' "Yes" Haotian answered truthfully.

Haotian moved by his simple ideal. If you can't lie, show sincerity. If he answered no, Rongrong's feeling would have increased immediately, having even an opportunity to become his girlfriend. But that wouldn't last, it wouldn't be long before she discovers the truth. Then, her opinion of him would plunder becoming the worst and making impossible her capture.

If only he had more time and had almost formed the bond with her, he would be able to take her, the lie becoming the last straw. But the bond was too shallow, not there yet.

"It's so" Rongrong said with a sad tone "Of course, you would already have a girlfriend."

"Two in truth" Haotian said.

"You are dating two girls?" Rongrong asked shocked.

"Yes. You might have listened about them. One is Meijing who Chen Xin had adopted as his granddaughter and the other is Bai Chenxiang who had become somewhat famous these days for the evolution of her spirit." Haotian explained, excluding Biyun and Yan who while he had sex with them, girlfriend wouldn't be the best way to describe them. Biyun was more of a little sister and Yan behaved like a servant.

Rongrong knew about them. Even if she hadn't seen them, she had heard about them, especially about Meijing who her grandpa Sword was praising every time and was preparing a meeting between Meijing and Rongrong.

"How could you date two girls?" Rongrong glanced at Haotian with a little contempt. Polygamy existed in the Douluo Dalu continent, especially for strong spirit masters that received a lot of praise and attention. A clear example was the imperial family of Star Luo Empire that were called Horny Tigers due to the great number of concubines that they usually take. However, it wasn't specially good looked upon.

For Rongrong it was wrong. A relationship must be with only one partner, loving the other over everything, even sacrificing the life for the other. Like her father who even after Rongrong's mother died, he continued respecting and loving her, not taking another lover.

"Are the girls agree?" Rongrong asked curiously. If they were nobodies that chased about fame and fortune, Rongrong would understand, but for such talented girls, daughters of heaven... They should be too proud to share a boyfriend.

"I won't lie saying that they are happier like this. They would prefer to be the only one, but..." Haotian made a pause, turning serious "they had agreed. They were incredible girls that I couldn't help to fall for them while they fell from me. I know that it might be bad for them and that I don't deserve them, but I love them both. They had accepted each other feelings, respecting and accepting to be both my girlfriend."

"Should I break up with one only because is seen badly for others?" Haotian's voice became louder "Fuck up! Why do I need to go against my feelings?!"

Listening to him, Rongrong's eyes went wide in shock. She never had thought about it, always dreaming about the white prince only for her like his parents, but if everyone loved each other and agree with it, was it wrong?

Rongrong stayed quiet, not really knowing how to answer. Haotian's words had sense, but in her inside, she continued choosing the monogamy, wanting that tale. However, some little part of her could accept Haotian's idea.

"Sorry, Rong'Er" Haotian apologized "I became too temperamental."

"N-no, no!" Rongrong hurriedly said "There's no need to say sorry. I shouldn't have condemned you for this."

Haotian knew that Rongrong wouldn't be convinced with these little, the route for her heart, becoming longer and harder, but there was no other way, she had a too strong self, not letting easily herself be lead. For now, Haotian would wait for a little, letting her think about it, but trying to meet her more to not let her fall for Oscar.

After that, they continued taking the tea while keeping an awkward silence.

"BOOOM!" Suddenly, breaking the silence, a loud noise was heard, both Rongrong and Haotian quickly turning towards it, a great pressure coming from there "A Spirit Douluo." Haotian whispered.
