Special Chapter: The Dragon Beast's Inferiority Complex

In Monster City of the Douluo Continent, a six-year-old boy named Jiang Nan awakens his Martial Soul, named Dragon Beast Martial Soul, True Dragon Level Martial Soul, and he also possesses Innate Full Soul Power.

After he awakened his Martial Soul, he immediately attracted the attention of the higher-ups. The dean of the continent's number one academy Kalai Ke Academy, personally took him to enroll, and he soon became a glorious student of the Kalai Ke Academy.

However, he felt somewhat inferior, after all, he came from a small village and was surrounded by people of extremely high status.

"Hello, classmate. My name is Ling Shen, and I'm from Author City. Where are you from?"

Then a delicate little boy with black hair walked over and greeted him. Jiang Nan seemed flattered by the greeting and also greeted him in return.

"Hello, hello, my name is Jiang Nan, from Monster City on the coast."

Jiang Nan extended his hand in greeting, but when Ling Shen heard that the other person was from a remote, obscure place, he immediately withdrew his hand, his expression changing from warm to cold, and muttered:

"What a joke! I thought it was some kind of powerful family, but it turns out they're just a bunch of good-for-nothings."

As Ling Shen spoke, he turned to look at two very beautiful girls not far away. One girl had blue hair, and the other had white hair; both were exquisitely beautiful and adorable.

"Hello, both of you. I am Ling Shen from Author City."

He took the initiative to strike up a conversation, and the two girls were slightly surprised, then quickly asked him more questions.

"Author City? Is that the Author City?"

"Indeed, I am from Author City. May I ask the names of you two ladies?"

Ling Shen gracefully took one of the girls' hands and asked their names. The two girls were the prettiest in the class, practically the class beauties, and he shyly introduced them:

"My name is Fu Su, and I'm the author of 'Douluo: Dragon God's Best Friend, Gravity to Godhood'!"

"My name is Yi Zhi A Bai -A Bai, and I am the author of 'Douluo Dragon King: The System Only Arrives After Being Titled Douluo.'"

Seeing Ling Shen chatting happily with the two class beauties, Jiang Nan couldn't help but feel inferior. He slumped onto the table dejectedly and said:

"As expected, a loser like me is utterly unworthy to be friends with these nobles..."

Soon the first class began, and Ling Shen was the center of attention. He possessed a phenomenal abstract Martial Soul, making his dragon Beast Martial Soul seem quite ordinary in comparison.

After class, everyone surrounded Ling Shen, treating him like a star surrounded by everyone's attention, while Jiang Nan stood alone in a corner, watching Ling Shen steal the spotlight.

He couldn't help but feel envious. "If only I could be the center of attention..." he began to daydream.

If I could win the favor of two beauties in the class Fu Su and A Bai, and live the life of having them on both sides, that would be wonderful.

But he only dared to think about it; he was just a weak ant, and his dragon Beast Martial Soul was also very weak.

Look at Ling Shen's Martial Soul, a phenomenal abstract Martial Soul, which is now a popular type in the online novel circle. Many people like that kind of abstract novel, and Ling Shen is currently at the height of his fame.

Fu Su's Martial Soul is a rare gravity Martial Soul, capable of manipulating gravity and attraction, far more powerful than any Dragon Beast he possesses.

And A Bai's Martial Soul is a system! Although system-themed web novels have become somewhat lacking in recent years, there's no denying how awesome they are.

Even the seasoned food connoisseur Ling Shen commented that Fu Su's suction power was excellent, and A Bai was thoroughly enjoying it.

Seeing the three of them under the spotlight, Jiang Nan silently left alone. As he walked on the school playground, he thought of Ling Shen's undisguised look of disdain after he found out that he came from some backwater place.

He felt a surge of resentment, and coincidentally, there was a stone right at his feet, so he vented his anger on it.

"What's so great about him! He's just better than me! How about we see who's more pathetic!"

As Jiang Nan spoke, he kicked the small stone away. Following the direction of his gaze, he saw that the stone he had kicked had hit a red convertible sports car.

In an instant, Jiang Nan froze, then rushed over in a panic, looking at the marks the pebbles had left on the red car, his eyes filled with unease.

"Oh no! I'm doomed! I accidentally damaged someone's car! It looks so expensive... Am I going to go bankrupt from paying for repairs?!"

Jiang Nan was immediately filled with remorse and fear. What if he couldn't afford to pay the fine and got beaten up? Should he run away while no one was paying attention to him?

The moment his thought settled, it took root and sprouted uncontrollably in his heart, growing into a towering tree.

However, he still looked around to make sure no one was paying attention to him, and then tentatively whispered:

"Um... are you there, the owner of this car? I'm so sorry I damaged your car... how about I fix it for you?"

As he spoke, he took a red sticker and stuck it on, covering the small gap. After doing this, he looked around and tentatively said:

"Um... I've fixed it for you, so I'll be going now... If you don't answer, I'll take that as a yes!"

As Jiang Nan spoke, she turned to run away, but bumped into someone. A fragrance wafted over, and she felt the softness of the other person against her skin.

He fell to the ground, clutching his head and looking up blankly. He saw a beautiful woman with blue hair, wearing the uniform of the Kalai Ke Academy. She had a noble air about her, and compared to Jiang Nan, the two were like an ugly duckling and a Swan.

"Are you... a new student? What are you doing standing next to my car?"

The woman, wearing sunglasses, looked at Jiang Nan, who was slumped on the ground, then reached out and took off her sunglasses, glancing at the figure sitting on the ground.

"Senior... this... this car is yours..."

Jiang Nan was completely stunned by the senior's beautiful appearance, and even his words became somewhat unclear. The senior chuckled, squatted down, and poked his forehead, knowingly asking:

"If it's not mine, is it still yours?"

Looking at the senior student so close to him, Jiang Nan blushed. It was the first time he had been so close to such a beautiful girl, and for a moment his Brain went blank.

The senior student chuckled as she looked at Jiang Nan, whose face was flushed and who was so flustered that he couldn't even speak, then reached out and pulled him up, saying:

"You're blushing? How cute! Okay, I'll stop teasing you. Welcome to the Kalai Ke Academy. If you ever encounter any difficulties, feel free to come to me. I'll protect you."

"Okay, thank you, senior!"

Jiang Nan looked at the senior in front of him, somewhat hesitant to meet her gaze. However, he didn't know where he got the courage, but suddenly spoke up:

"Senior! May I ask your name?"

The blue-haired senior student sat in the driver's seat of the red convertible sports car, started the engine, and turned around after hearing the question, giving him a sweet smile and saying:

"Senior, my name is... Tang Zhangwei."

Chapter Two: Dragon Beast Douluo's Childhood Sweetheart

Listening to the self-introduction of the beautiful blue-haired senior in front of him, Jiang Nan silently memorized the name.

"Hello, Senior Tang, my name is Jiang Nan, and I'm a freshman at the Kalai Ke Academy this year!"

He scratched his head shyly, looking somewhat simple-minded. Seeing this, Tang Zhangwei, the senior student sitting in the car, chuckled and beckoned to him:

"Very well, it's fate that we met. Get in the car, I'll take you home."

"Eh? Is this alright, senior? Won't it be too much trouble for you?"

"No, I've got nothing else to do anyway, let's get in the car."

"Okay!"

Jiang Nan opened the car door and sat down, placing his hands somewhat awkwardly on his lap, as if afraid of damaging anything in the car.

"Fasten your seatbelts, be careful, we're leaving."

"Okay, senior!"

Upon hearing the reminder, he fastened his seatbelt like a good boy, and the car quickly started and sped out of the campus.

A sudden gust of wind howled past Jiang Nan's ears. Feeling the speed and intensity, Jiang Nan gripped the seatbelt tightly, his face pale, and exclaimed in alarm:

"Wow, that's fast! Senior! That's incredible!"

"Wow! That's more exciting, junior. Where do you live? Tell me."

Unlike Jiang Nan, whose face was pale with fear, Tang Zhangwei seemed to be enjoying the feeling of speed and passion, holding the steering wheel with one hand while asking about the destination.

"My home is in Monster City... and there's a senior student too, look ahead... I'm scared."

Seeing the senior student's gaze fixed on the navigation, Jiang Nan trembled all over, her eyes filled with lingering fear.

(Friendly reminder: Reckless driving can bring tears to your loved ones.)

"Don't be afraid, junior. After we awaken our Martial Souls, we'll already be Ultraman, so we'll be quite safe."

The senior student navigated while driving, and soon arrived at Monster City. It was quite close; it was just a small town nearby.

"Alright, found it, we'll be there soon."

As Tang Zhangwei spoke, she slammed on the gas pedal again, and the convertible sports car shot off once more. Jiang Nan's face grew even paler.

Kalai Ke Academy was located in the suburbs, and the sports car quickly left the academy's territory, heading towards Monster City. Upon arriving at their destination, Jiang Nan's legs went weak.

"Alright, junior, we've arrived."

"Thank you... thank you, senior..."

Jiang Nan thanked him shakily, then opened the car door to get out, only to find that his legs wouldn't obey him.

"Haha, little junior, is this your first time riding in a sports car?"

Seeing the little guy's embarrassed look, the senior chuckled. Her melodious laughter and teasing gaze made Jiang Nan's face flush red again.

He turned his face away awkwardly for a moment, and replied somewhat shyly:

"Hmm... This is my first time riding in a car this fast... It's a little scary."

"It's my problem, so I'll stay here and help you adjust."

Tang Zhangwei got out of the car as he spoke. Jiang Nan looked over and saw that he bought two bottles of mineral water from the vending machine and then walked back.

"Junior, here you go."

"Thank you, senior... I'll transfer the money to you."

Tang Zhangwei got back into the car and handed Jiang Nan a bottle of mineral water. Jiang Nan reached out and took the water, and their fingers touched as they did so.

The senior's hands were slender, white, and smooth; the touch was so wonderful that Jiang Nan was momentarily dazed. He thought, "It would be so comfortable to hold those hands, wouldn't it?"

Thinking of this, Jiang Nan lowered her head, her cheeks turning from pale to Pink.

"No need, it's my treat."

Tang Zhangwei unscrewed the mineral water bottle and drank it down in one gulp, appearing quite hearty. Jiang Nan also took a sip, and then the car fell silent.

The two seemed to have run out of things to talk about, and sat there in silence. Soon, passersby recognized Jiang Nan.

"Isn't that Jiang Nan? I remember he awakened his Innate Full Soul Power and went to the university."

Wow! What a beautiful car! It looks really expensive!

"Jiang Nan has really made something of himself, actually riding in such an expensive car. Getting into a good college really makes a difference."

The crowd of pedestrians were buzzing with discussion, their exclamations echoing in Jiang Nan's ears. Enjoying the amazement of the crowd, he felt inexplicably pleased.

This feeling of being a legend in front of everyone is amazing! Just as he was listening to everyone's amazement, his senior's voice came.

"Hey junior, your place is pretty quiet."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Nan subconsciously turned his head to look and saw Senior Tang Zhangwei leaning back in her chair, admiring the golden wheat fields of Monster City.

"Ah? Um... My home is in the countryside... there are fewer people there, so it's quieter."

"Quiet is good. Sometimes it's nice to drive around and stop in a quiet little town. It's quite novel."

Hearing his senior's praise, Jiang Nan was stunned for a moment. He recalled how that guy named Ling Shen looked down on him that morning. He thought his senior would look down on him too, but she didn't.

"Senior, don't you have any other thoughts?"

What are your thoughts?

Faced with her junior's sudden question, Tang Zhangwei stretched and revealed all the beauty of a young girl to Jiang Nan.

Jiang Nan swallowed hard, but still pressed on with the question:

"Well... when my classmates found out I came from a small city like Monster City, they all looked down on me..."

As he finished speaking, his hands unconsciously clenched, a hint of worry in his voice that his senior might also look down on him.

Under Jiang Nan's uneasy gaze, Senior Tang Zhangwei slowly responded:

"Those are them. I don't feel anything about them. They're human too, with the same two eyes, two hands, and two feet. Now that you've enrolled in the Kalai Ke Academy, you're one of us."

Hearing his senior's response, Jiang Nan was lost in thought, then scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly and praised her:

"My senior is so beautiful and kind-hearted."

"Alright, you've recovered pretty much by now, right? Go home, don't worry your family."

"Okay, see you later, senior!"

Goodbye, take care.

After getting off the bus in Jiang Nan, the two said their goodbyes. He watched Tang Zhangwei's figure disappear, thinking to himself, "She's really beautiful."

Then he went upstairs to his rented room. He took out his key and was about to open the door when he heard a soft moan.

"So you've finally decided to come back? Jiang Nan! You've gotten bold, haven't you! You actually dared to go find other women!"

Hearing the female voice, Jiang Nan turned his head and saw a little girl with white hair looking at him angrily.

This person is Jiang Nan's childhood sweetheart. They lived next door to each other since they were little and played together for several years. However, this childhood sweetheart will not be able to awaken her Martial Soul until next month.

"It's you, Zog. Don't overthink it, that was just a kind senior student offering me a ride home."

Jiang Nan scratched his head, but to avoid misunderstanding, he explained their relationship, which his childhood sweetheart Herzog didn't believe at all.

"Hmph! Isn't having me enough? You actually went to find other girls! I hate you, Jiang Nan!"
