"Don't try that on me!"
Chi Xiu awkwardly picked up the washbasin that had fallen to the floor and carefully placed it back on the rack.
When he turned to look at the bed, he discovered that Gu Yuena was already lying on her side atop it. Her fair, rounded shoulders were slightly hunched, one slender finger resting against her red lips in a seductive pose. Her well-proportioned legs were crossed beneath her skirt, so white they seemed to reflect light.
"Master~"
Gu Yuena called softly.
Chi Xiu panicked as if facing a formidable enemy. "What are you trying to do?"
At that, Gu Yuena suddenly sat up on the bed, her long, pale legs splayed to either side.
So mother dragons could sit like ducks too...
"Na'er wants Tanghulu!"
Well, well. This Little Dragon Girl had already learned how to use the civilized language Chi Xiu had taught her verbally.
But Chi Xiu was unwilling.
"No. I want to sleep at night."
"Then I'll lie beside you naked! Let's see if you stinking man can still fall asleep?!"
Chi Xiu froze for a moment, then threatened, "Woman, I'm warning you, don't take things too far!"
Gu Yuena gave a cold snort, curling her lips. In front of Chi Xiu, she rarely displayed such a queenly bearing.
"This is my freedom to dress as I please. Master has no right to control it!"
Well, damn.
What freedom to dress as she pleased! Chi Xiu was instantly left speechless.
Looking at the alluring scene on the bed, he could only compromise helplessly and walk toward it step by difficult step. Seeing this, Gu Yuena revealed a crafty smile. Her little scheme had succeeded.
The next day.
Chi Xiu had not slept all night, though sleep was no longer important to Soul Masters. His mental state was not affected much; his kidneys just inexplicably hurt a little.
Gu Yuena stretched lazily, looking radiant and refreshed. Happily, she leaned close to Chi Xiu and planted a good-morning kiss on his lips.
"Morning, Master! Today is another day when I desperately want to merge with Master!"
After saying that, she happily jumped out of bed and fetched Chi Xiu a basin of water to wash his face.
"Heh... heh. When you squeeze me dry and I die young someday, let's see how you'll merge with me..."
Watching her busy figure from behind, Chi Xiu could not help grumbling.
Today was the first day of school. The Soul Masters who had just entered the academy were filled with curiosity about their academy lives.
During these days of enrollment, a total of twenty-two duels had taken place among Purple Star Academy's new students. Yet the one that left the deepest impression on everyone was the masked boy.
There was no other reason. It was the only completely one-sided match.
According to rumors, the boy who won was only six years old...
It was simply horrifying.
When Chi Xiu arrived at the cafeteria, he found that nearly everyone's gaze was focused on him. Several especially pretty girls even wanted to sit with him, but without exception, they all tripped over something, spilling food all over themselves before running away in embarrassment.
Chi Xiu knew that some jealous mother dragon was frantically asserting her claim.
"Master, do you have classes today?"
"There are no classes on the first day. I heard we're doing some kind of comprehensive aptitude assessment to record the students' personal data."
Gu Yuena lay sprawled across the table, staring seriously at Chi Xiu. "What kind of data?"
"Strength, speed, Soul Power, physical strength..."
As Chi Xiu spoke, he found Gu Yuena rather adorable lying on the table like that, so he reached out and pinched her soft, pale cheek. She comfortably narrowed her eyes. Before Chi Xiu, Gu Yuena possessed none of the dignity of the Silver Dragon King.
"Purple Star Academy doesn't have professional testing facilities, though. They spent all their money on surface-level renovations. We have to go to Heaven Dou Royal Academy together for testing. I heard students from both academies will be tested together then."
"Master's physical data will definitely rank first in every category!"
"Whatever. I'll just perform normally when the time comes. There's no need to hide my strength for this."
Outside the gates of Purple Star Advanced Soul Master Academy.
"Line up properly! Don't get lost! Heaven Dou Royal Academy isn't close, so we'll be walking for quite a while!"
The teacher leading the group shouted loudly.
Wearing Purple Star Academy's purple-and-gold-star uniform, Chi Xiu followed the large group of new students toward Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"Are you all fucking blind?! Why aren't you getting out of the way when you see my big brother?!"
At that moment, someone shouted. All the new students turned to look and saw a tall, fat boy.
Sun Dabao? What was this fatso trying to pull now? Chi Xiu frowned slightly.
Sun Dabao pushed through the crowd and arrived before Chi Xiu with several lackeys behind him. He respectfully bent at the waist and said ingratiatingly, "Big Brother, how can you stand here? You're the leader of us new students. You need to stand at the very front to match your status!"
Status?
"Chi Lai told you about my status?"
Sun Dabao's fat face filled with confusion. "What status? Brother Lai only told us little brothers that we had to serve you well, Big Brother, and clear away every obstacle in the academy for you!"
So cringe... Chi Xiu had no energy to mock him.
He could not be bothered with this fatso.
"You lot with no sense, hurry up and move! Let my big brother stand at the front!"
Chi Xiu covered his face.
"Sun Dabao."
"Here!"
"Stop talking nonsense. I'm standing here. I'm not going to the front."
"Sure, sure! Whatever Big Brother says goes. We'll listen to you!"
After saying that, Sun Dabao immediately led his lackeys to follow behind Chi Xiu like bodyguards. Chi Xiu only felt embarrassed, especially when the other students looked at him with fear in their eyes, as though he enjoyed eating children...
"Master, can you get me a school uniform too? This outfit looks so pretty!"
Gu Yuena clung to Chi Xiu's arm and pleaded sweetly.
Chi Xiu glanced at her chest. "There's no uniform that fits you. With your situation, you wouldn't even be able to fasten the buttons."
"Hmph, you just don't want to let me wear one! I'm not walking with you anymore. I'm going off to wander around by myself!"
"Don't run around."
Sun Dabao followed behind without daring to say anything. This big brother was talking to himself again.
Just then, the large group walking down the street suddenly stopped.
"What's going on?"
"What happened? Why did we stop?"
Chi Xiu stood on tiptoe and looked ahead, only to see a little girl in a blue-green gauze dress blocking the middle of the road. Her features were as exquisite as a doll's; anyone who saw her could tell at a glance that she was not a child from an ordinary family.
Ning Rongrong?!
Chi Xiu could not help widening his eyes. What was this little girl doing here?
The teacher leading the group was named Song Ming, a man in his thirties with Soul Power above level fifty.
He stared blankly at the pretty little girl standing with her arms spread wide to block the group.
"Whose child are you? Why are you blocking the road?"
Ning Rongrong put her hands on her hips and pouted. "This young miss is from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"
As soon as she said this, some bystanders watching the excitement quickly recognized her identity.
"Isn't she the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Young Miss?! I was fortunate enough to see her once at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect a year ago!"
"What? She's the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Young Miss, one of the Upper Three Sects and the owner of the number one support Martial Soul in the world?"
Chi Xiu suppressed a laugh. This passerby was certainly putting on quite a show.
What he did not understand was that, to the residents of Heaven Dou City, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect truly held supreme status. Sect Master Ning Fengzhi could even enter and leave the imperial palace at will and was on good terms with Xue Ye.
Song Ming's expression immediately turned respectful. Smiling, he bent down and asked the little girl, "Um, Miss Ning, why are you blocking my students here?"
"Do your family members know you came out?"
Ning Rongrong lifted her chin and snapped in a fierce yet childish voice, "None of your business!"
Song Ming was rebuffed and shrank his neck. His status was nowhere near enough to offend this little ancestor.
Ning Rongrong then stood on tiptoe and looked through the group. "I want to see Chi Xiu-gege!"
"Chi Xiu-gege, come out quickly!"
