Two piercing female screams rang out at the same time.

Chi Xiu clutched his ears with a twisted expression, his eardrums nearly bursting. What was going on?!

"What happened?!"

He hurried back, only to freeze on the spot at the sight inside the dormitory.

Gu Yuena lay face-down on the bed, her round backside raised as her entire head was buried tightly beneath a pillow. Her ten crystal-clear, delicate little toes were curled together, the soles flushed pink with embarrassment, just like their owner, too ashamed to face anyone.

Xiao Wu had turned away, both hands tightly covering her eyes. Her face was red as blood, and her adorable rabbit ears drooped listlessly as though wilted. Steam seemed to rise from her whole rabbit head.

"I... I didn't see anything, I didn't hear anything. Didn't see it! Didn't hear it! Didn't!"

Xiao Wu kept muttering, until she herself began to question her entire life...

Five minutes later.

Gu Yuena's head was still buried beneath the pillow, her entire body sprawled on the bed like a statue. She was thoroughly too ashamed to face anyone.

Now all the pressure had fallen on Chi Xiu.

Over those five minutes, he had more or less figured out what had happened. He was so embarrassed that he had practically planned out several apartments in his head from digging his toes into the floor!

Even though nothing had happened between him and Xiao Wu, still... the first time he brought a girl back to where he lived, something like this happened. How were they supposed to get along after this?!

Chi Xiu was an upright man!

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He stepped forward and gave Gu Yuena's backside a hard smack, the sound crisp and clear.

"Look at the mess you caused. You enjoy messing with me that much, huh? Was it on purpose?! We've always been completely innocent..."

"Master..."

Gu Yuena's aggrieved voice came from beneath the pillow.

The atmosphere froze once more.

Xiao Wu's eyes widened. "M-Master?!"

Chi Xiu stared at his palm in shock, as though he had realized something. He hurriedly explained, "No, no, no... it's not that! We're not playing some embarrassing game!"

The look in Xiao Wu's eyes gradually changed...

In that instant, Chi Xiu's face went ashen.

After thinking for a moment, he walked to the bed, picked Gu Yuena up entirely, turned her around, and then said with a ferocious expression:

"Show yourself, little darling!!"

The lovely silver-haired, purple-eyed girl sat on the bed with her legs folded to one side, her smooth, fair legs spread on either side of her body. Yet she still covered her face with both hands. Seeing this, Chi Xiu could only step forward and forcibly pull her hands down.

"Master, sob... don't. I'm too embarrassed to face anyone..."

"To hell with 'don't'! Explain your identity before you call me Master!"

Xiao Wu stared at the two of them. "What identity?"

Chi Xiu glanced back at her and calmly said, "To be honest, this little thing is the Silver Dragon King."

"The... Silver Dragon King?!"

This whimpering creature was actually the Silver Dragon King?!

Xiao Wu could no longer remain calm. She backed away, and the instinct of the strong devouring the weak made her body start trembling. Her legs gave out, and she collapsed onto the floor.

"A hundred-thousand-year rabbit?"

Gu Yuena regained some of her composure.

She fixed Xiao Wu with cold vertical pupils for a while, then turned to Chi Xiu. "Master, braise her."

"Braised my ass!"

Chi Xiu immediately kneaded her soft, fair little face into all sorts of shapes.

Why did this Silver Dragon King look so foolish and silly... Xiao Wu began to doubt her life. After all, this was nothing like how Da Ming and Er Ming had described the Silver Dragon King.

She was the ruler of the entire Star Dou Great Forest, the supreme sovereign of Soul Beasts. A single cold snort from her could make tens of thousands of Soul Beasts tremble in fear.

Yet right now, Chi Xiu was kneading her cheeks without the slightest restraint. She was like an exquisite doll, completely at his mercy.

At that moment, Xiao Wu suddenly recalled what Chi Xiu had said years ago.

"Gu Yuena calls me Master. Even Beast God Di Tian has to kneel when he sees me..."

Suddenly, Xiao Wu's eyes widened as she looked at the young man kneading the Silver Dragon King's cheeks. Her throat bobbed uncontrollably. Thinking about it this way... could what Chi Xiu said have been true?

He... he was the supreme sovereign of Soul Beasts, the king who commanded all Soul Beasts...

The little rabbit, wildly filling in the blanks, immediately did not dare make even the slightest sound.

No wonder Chi Xiu was already so powerful at such a young age. No wonder he knew her identity. No wonder he was so handsome he looked like a god. No wonder...

"What's wrong with you?"

Chi Xiu turned around and looked at Xiao Wu curiously.

Xiao Wu jumped in fright. She immediately stood up, pursed her pink lips, and stared at Chi Xiu, breathing rapidly.

Gu Yuena looked utterly played out, her expression blank and dazed...

But Xiao Wu was no longer afraid of Gu Yuena.

She was afraid of Chi Xiu.

"Then... who are you?"

Xiao Wu could not help asking.

"Me? Just an ordinary student."

Xiao Wu's eyes widened. There must be some secret he couldn't tell me, right? After all, I'm only a tiny hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast... As she thought this, she even guessed that Chi Xiu was at least a million-year Soul Beast, the kind only half a step away from godhood.

"I understand!"

Xiao Wu immediately answered respectfully. At the same time, she felt a little closer to Chi Xiu. After all, Soul Beasts everywhere were one family.

"How are we sleeping tonight..."

Xiao Wu asked awkwardly.

Chi Xiu looked left and right. "There's only one bed, so the three of us will squeeze in together. Tomorrow, I'll take you to complete the paperwork, and then you can have your own dormitory."

Late at night.

Chi Xiu lay in the middle, Gu Yuena on the left, and Xiao Wu on the right.

"Is Purple Star Academy short on money?"

Xiao Wu suddenly asked.

"Why do you ask?"

"The wall by the head of the bed is cracked."

Chi Xiu's expression stiffened. He turned to look at Gu Yuena beside him, only to find that she was covering her mouth and laughing.

When no answer came for a long while, Xiao Wu simply shut her mouth.

A few minutes later, Gu Yuena suddenly mischievously stretched one long, fair leg toward Chi Xiu.

Chi Xiu shuddered in fright and hurriedly shifted toward Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu was even more startled.

"Sorry, she should be asleep. She's always restless when she sleeps and takes up a lot of space..."

Chi Xiu explained awkwardly.

But after explaining, he suddenly froze.

Damn it! How would a completely innocent person like me know Gu Yuena's sleeping posture?!

Chi Xiu looked at Xiao Wu's flushed face and knew she had definitely realized something. This little rabbit was secretly quite naughty; she understood things at the slightest hint.

Gu Yuena was still causing trouble behind him, so Chi Xiu could only turn onto his side to face Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu lay stiffly on her back. Although her eyes were tightly shut, her bright red face showed that she was not asleep at all.

Chi Xiu was even less sleepy, so he began studying Xiao Wu's face.

It had to be said, the little rabbit was truly beautiful. Her eyelashes were long and curled, her skin fair and delicate, and her features small and exquisite. Her looks were absolutely no worse than Gu Yuena's behind him. The only difference between them was their temperament.

Seeing Chi Xiu ignore her, Gu Yuena frowned and kicked him with her foot.

Chi Xiu was startled and nearly squeezed Xiao Wu off the bed. He hurriedly caught Xiao Wu's body as she tipped over, but he used too much force and directly lifted her onto himself.

Xiao Wu opened her beautiful pink eyes wide and stared blankly down at Chi Xiu.

All three of them were dumbfounded.

He had not slept a wink that night. He truly could not fall asleep.

After all, two stunning beauties lay beside him—one passionate as fire, the other shy as water. Chi Xiu was not a eunuch, and Gu Yuena kept causing trouble. He had restrained himself the entire time. He did not know whether Xiao Wu had noticed, but judging by how unnatural her expression was, she had probably noticed long ago.

Whatever. Since he had already lost face, he might as well stop caring. Let things go however they wanted.

The next day, Chi Xiu successfully took Xiao Wu to complete her enrollment procedures. Students throughout Purple Star Academy watched them the entire way. Where had they ever seen such a beautiful girl at the academy? Every one of them wore a foolishly lovestruck smile.

Chi Xiu's actions were also domineering. He held Xiao Wu's hand the entire time, making what he was declaring obvious without words.

Xiao Wu did not refuse, though her girlish thoughts ran wild.

That afternoon, another striking young lady arrived at Purple Star Academy.

Ning Rongrong successfully obtained Ning Fengzhi's permission to study at Purple Star Academy. However, her old father had also made one demand: she had to reach rank forty before graduation. Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes and pretended not to hear him.

After Chen Xin learned of this, he also made a demand of Ning Rongrong: before graduation, she should try to win Chi Xiu over. Ning Rongrong beamed and readily agreed.

She had fallen for Chi Xiu. That was an indisputable fact.

Thus, repeating what had happened that morning, as though the scene had been recreated, Chi Xiu once again held Ning Rongrong's hand throughout the entire process and took her to complete her enrollment procedures amid the envious gazes of the other Purple Star Academy students.

The Dean of Purple Star Academy was grinning from ear to ear. What kind of bumper year was this?

That evening, someone Chi Xiu never expected arrived.

Zhu Zhuqing had come.

The little cat had considered it for an entire day. After weighing the pros and cons, she had ultimately decided to seek Chi Xiu's support.

In her view, compared to Dai Mubai, Chi Xiu would be more beneficial in resolving her family problems.

But the little cat had arrived at night...

So they could only sleep in the same bed again.

This time, Chi Xiu wore his mask to sleep and even forcibly made Gu Yuena remain invisible. Yet this little female dragon refused to learn her lesson and continued causing trouble. Lying on Chi Xiu's other side, she kept making moves while Chi Xiu constantly dodged.

The final result...

Chi Xiu was squeezed off the bed, holding Zhu Zhuqing as the two "gazed deeply into each other's eyes." The pair of weapons on the little cat's chest separated their faces by a full ten or twenty centimeters.

The little cat's face was icy. "Student Chi, please behave yourself."

Chi Xiu: "..."

On the third day, Chi Xiu brought the three little beauties who had come to rely on him into a closed room.

Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Zhu Zhuqing sat in a row, while Chi Xiu sat opposite them.

"You two, stop glaring at each other. Learn from Zhuqing. Wouldn't it be nice to sit quietly like a girl?"

The moment Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong met, they were like two hens fighting. Especially after Ning Rongrong learned that Xiao Wu had slept with Chi Xiu on the first night, jealousy immediately shot through the roof. She had known Chi Xiu for so long, yet she had never slept with him!

"How about this, Zhuqing? Sit between the two of them."

"Alright."

Once they were arranged, Chi Xiu sat up straight.

"Quiet down. Let's have a short meeting."

"Our president is so handsome!"

Ning Rongrong immediately chimed in supportively. Xiao Wu shot her a disdainful look.

"Keep it low-key... Don't interrupt me."

Chi Xiu looked at the three exceptionally pleasing little beauties opposite him, but he could not focus at all. Those legs were so pale and dazzling, and Zhu Zhuqing's pair of weapons was even more eye-catching. Still, after being looked down on by her last night, Chi Xiu did not dare stare at them.

"Since all of you came to Purple Star Academy more or less because of me, I naturally have to give you a welcome gift."

After saying that, Chi Xiu took out two soul bones from his Storage Device, both taken from Tang Hao.

"This is a right leg bone with the ability to fly. I'll give it to Zhuqing, since you're an agility-attack type."

Zhu Zhuqing did not dare accept it. She was so overwhelmed by the favor that she never imagined Chi Xiu would give her such a grand gift.

"Student Chi..."

"Take it. I'll get angry if you don't."

Seeing Zhu Zhuqing hesitate to reach out, Chi Xiu simply tossed it to her. Zhu Zhuqing did not react in time, and the soul bone struck that pair of weapons before bouncing down at Chi Xiu's feet...

The room froze.

The two girls beside her stared dumbly as a feeling of inferiority rose within them.

Chi Xiu hurriedly apologized. "Sorry, sorry, I didn't mean to..."

Zhu Zhuqing accepted it with a flushed face. "It's alright..."

"Ahem, there's also a left leg bone. I don't know what ability it has, so I'll give it to Xiao Wu."

Xiao Wu hesitated as well before accepting it. Then she glanced at Ning Rongrong.

"What about mine!"

Ning Rongrong frowned.

"You're suited to a head soul bone. Another day, I'll go take Shi Nian's head off... Uh, another day, I'll go pick one up for you..."

"You'd better be able to pick one up. Hmph!"

Ning Rongrong said indignantly.

"Alright, alright. Since everyone has entered an Advanced Soul Master Academy, you should all cultivate diligently from now on."

Chi Xiu knew that aside from Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing probably would not progress especially quickly if they cultivated on their own, particularly in Purple Star Academy's teaching environment.

Therefore, he also needed to find the Qi Luo Tulip and Narcissus Jade Muscle Bone as soon as possible.

"Little Young Master!"

A voice came from outside. Chi Xiu turned and saw Song Ming standing at the door.

Song Ming had always been responsible for organizing the academy's external tasks, such as joint examinations and tests. He was also the only one who knew the truth about what happened at Heaven Dou Royal Academy six years ago, so he had always secretly called Chi Xiu Little Young Master.

"Teacher Song?"

"You really were here. I've finally found you."

"What is it?"

"It's like this. A few days ago, Spirit City suddenly issued a notice saying they were holding an event and inviting Soul Masters between the ages of twelve and twenty to attend a Masked Union."

Ning Rongrong asked curiously, "What is a Masked Union?"

"Everyone has to wear a mask to the banquet. It's my first time hearing of it too. I also heard that, without fighting, everyone has to do their best to showcase their strengths and talents and become the most eye-catching person at the entire banquet. People will secretly score all the participants, and those ranked among the top few in the end will receive generous rewards."

"That... sounds kind of interesting!"

Ning Rongrong clapped expectantly.

Chi Xiu, however, was somewhat puzzled. From the description, this should have been a grand event, perhaps even comparable to the All-Continent Young Spirit Master Tournament. So why had it never been mentioned in the original story?

Papal Hall.

Bibi Dong approached the window with a gem-studded scepter in hand. She gazed into the distance; time had left no trace upon her stunningly beautiful face.

"May I ask what your purpose is in holding this event?"

Xue Qinghe stood behind her and could not help asking.

"To select talent for Spirit Hall."

"That's only incidental, isn't it?"

"Since you already know, why ask? You shouldn't have come to find me. There are too many eyes and ears here."

"Do you really think you can find him at this banquet?"

Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes flickered. "I believe he will come."

As she said this, Bibi Dong turned to look at Xue Qinghe, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Why have you been so concerned lately about my search for this child?"

Xue Qinghe froze and lowered his head.

He did not know how to say it. Could he say that he suspected the child Bibi Dong was looking for had appeared in his bed a few days ago?

Bibi Dong looked at Xue Qinghe, and a trace of complicated emotion suddenly flashed across her face.

She turned around and took a deep breath.

"You... probably haven't shown yourself as a girl in many years, have you? This time, you can wear a mask and do anything you want."
