Notting Academy

"Xiao Yu, eat well. Eat as much as you want and enjoy yourself today. In a few days, Grandpa will send you to Notting Academy. When the time comes, you must work hard. Strive to become a Soul Master. Only by becoming a Soul Master can you live a good life, understand?"

Su Yi patted Su Yu and said with a cheerful smile.

Su Yu nodded, then began eating heartily with the old man. He had not eaten meat in a long time, and he truly missed it.

"Bi Ji, is what you said true? Has an Auspicious Beast really been born?" Zi Ji asked in surprise as she looked at Bi Ji, who was holding the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.

"Yes, that is indeed the case. Di Tian asked you to go with me and bring the Auspicious Beast back. We cannot let the Auspicious Beast's bloodline remain out there." Bi Ji looked at Zi Ji and spoke with a serious expression.

"Yes, that is true. The Auspicious Beast belongs to the forest and should indeed be brought back. I just wonder whether this newly appeared Auspicious Beast is male or female. Don't you think so, little Auspicious Beast?" Zi Ji blinked at the Three-Eyed Golden Lion with a solemn expression.

Hearing Zi Ji say that, Bi Ji could not help rolling her eyes at her. The Three-Eyed Golden Lion might not understand what Zi Ji meant, but how could she not?

"Enough, let's go. We need to bring the Auspicious Beast back quickly. Every moment it remains outside is another moment of danger. Sigh, I just don't understand why an Auspicious Beast would be born outside."

Seven days later

Back Mountain

Su Yu punched the small willow tree in front of him, snapping it in half. Looking at his fists, a smile appeared on his face.

"As expected of the Qilin Bloodline. The progress is really quite fast."

After saying that, Su Yu sat down cross-legged and began absorbing the essence of heaven and earth to cultivate his soul power.

Two hours later

Su Yu exhaled a faint stream of white energy.

"Alright, it's time to head down the mountain. Grandpa said he'd take me to Notting Academy today." Su Yu shook his head, rose to his feet, and walked down the mountain.

"Xiao Yu, you're back. Alright, let's go."

Seeing the carriage parked outside his home, Su Yu nodded. He went inside to gather his things, then jumped straight onto the carriage.

Little Leaf Village was not far from Notting City. In just over an hour, the two arrived at Notting City by carriage.

After arriving in Notting City, Su Yi led Su Yu toward the city.

"Xiao Yu, once we reach the academy, Grandpa will have to leave. Take this." As he spoke, Su Yi handed Su Yu a small money pouch.

Su Yu opened the pouch and saw several dozen silver coins inside. He could not help biting his lip. These several dozen silver coins were probably all of his grandfather's savings.

"Grandpa, I'll definitely work hard. Don't worry." Su Yu looked at the old man with a serious expression.

"Hehe, Grandpa believes in you." Su Yi smiled and rubbed Su Yu's head.

Very soon, the two arrived at Notting Soul Master Junior Academy.

From a distance, Su Yu spotted a somewhat disheveled gatekeeper, an ordinary-looking child, and an old man about the same age as his grandfather.

Damn, did I just run into a famous scene? Before Su Yu could finish speaking, the system spoke.

Ding, congratulations to the Host for checking in at Notting Academy. You have obtained 1 Fishing opportunity.

Ding, congratulations to the Host for checking in with Douluo Continent's protagonist, Tang San. You have obtained 3 Fishing opportunities.

Ding, congratulations to the Host for checking in with Master Yu Xiaogang. You have obtained 2 Fishing opportunities.

The system's series of notifications kept ringing in Su Yu's mind, leaving him stunned.

While Su Yu was still dazed, a middle-aged man appeared at the entrance of Notting Academy. The man seemed to say a few words to the gatekeeper before leaving with the little boy.

Damn, this was a huge haul.

Before Su Yu could think further, Su Yi led him over.

"Cough, cough, this is our certificate." Su Yi trembled as he took Su Yu's certificate from his bag and handed it to the gatekeeper.

The gatekeeper glanced at it, then waved his hand, signaling Su Yu to enter.

He no longer dared to cause trouble. Master had warned him earlier, otherwise Su Yu would not have been able to enter so easily.

"Grandpa, be careful on your way back," Su Yu said worriedly as he looked at Su Yi.

"Mm, don't worry. Xiao Yu, hurry inside. Remember to study hard, alright?" Su Yi smiled and rubbed Su Yu's head before turning and leaving.

Only after watching his grandfather disappear from sight did Su Yu turn and walk into Notting Academy.

After entering the academy, Su Yu quickly found someone and asked where to register.

The moment Su Yu entered the room, he saw a girl dressed in pink with a scorpion braid.

Before Su Yu could think much, the system sounded again.

Ding, congratulations to the Host for checking in with Xiao Wu. You have obtained 3 Fishing opportunities.

So this is the female lead of Douluo Continent. She really is pretty. She's already this beautiful at such a young age—I wonder what she'll look like when she grows up. Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway.

Su Yu shook his head and walked in.

"Director, this is my certificate." Su Yu ignored Xiao Wu and directly handed the certificate to Director Su.

"Mm, you're a work-study student from Little Leaf Village, right? Innate Full Soul Power... Have there been this many children with Innate Full Soul Power lately? Little fellow, would you like to become my disciple?" Director Su looked at Su Yu's information, his eyes lighting up as he gazed at him expectantly.

"Sorry, Director, but I have no plans to take a master for now." Su Yu shook his head and directly rejected Director Su's invitation.

"Alright, your registration is complete. Su Yu, go with Xiao Wu beside you. She's in the same dormitory as you." Though Director Su could not help shaking his head in disappointment after hearing Su Yu's answer, he still responsibly completed Su Yu's enrollment.

Hearing Director Su's words, Su Yu nodded. He truly had not expected to end up in the same dormitory as Xiao Wu.

"Hello, let's go." Su Yu took his belongings and School Uniform from Director Su, then turned to Xiao Wu with a smile.

"Oh, oh, oh, alright. Let's go."

Xiao Wu replied blankly, then followed Su Yu toward the dormitory like a mute gourd. However, she would sneak glances at him from time to time.

Xiao Wu herself did not know why she kept looking at Su Yu. For some reason, the first time she saw him, she had been drawn to the faint, elusive aura around him.

Even Xiao Wu could not explain the feeling. She simply felt comfortable staying by Su Yu's side.

"Classmate Xiao Wu, we're here. Aren't you going in?" Su Yu stood at the entrance of the dormitory building and asked Xiao Wu in confusion.

What's wrong with this Xiao Wu? She's acting so strangely, like some dumb fool. Could it be because I'm too handsome and she wants my body? Su Yu gave Xiao Wu a puzzled glance.

He then shook his head, ignored her, and walked inside alone.

"Hey, wait!" Seeing that Su Yu was ignoring her, Xiao Wu stomped her foot and said angrily.

"Hey, my name is Xiao Wu. What's yours?" Xiao Wu ran to Su Yu's side, grabbed his hand, and asked with a grin.
