"Boss?"

Xiao Wu blinked her big eyes and smiled.

"That must mean you're very strong, right?"

Whenever she spoke, two shallow dimples appeared on her cheeks.

They made her seem even more mischievous and adorable.

"If you want to know whether I'm strong, why not try me?"

Huo Feng grinned and directly summoned his martial soul.

"Huo Feng, Martial Soul Iron Sword. Please enlighten me!"

Hearing that, Wang Sheng, who had been exceptionally excited behind him, involuntarily swallowed.

When Huo Feng had dealt with him earlier, he had said the exact same thing.

"Boss, don't hit a girl too hard. Just go easy on her."

He knew Huo Feng's strength and methods all too well.

"Are you trying to fight me?"

Xiao Wu looked at Huo Feng strangely.

"A spar when entering the dorm. That's the Seventh Dorm's rule."

Huo Feng nodded.

"Okay, then come on!"

After receiving his answer, a flash of excitement actually appeared on Xiao Wu's face.

Before Huo Feng could react, she bent her right leg and sprang into the air.

In an instant, her toes were nearly touching Huo Feng's nose.

Her speed was astonishing.

Huo Feng abruptly retreated, dodging the kick.

But the second kick followed immediately after.

Clang—!

Huo Feng raised his sword. The instant her toes met its tip, both were violently knocked away.

Xiao Wu used the momentum to perform a backflip, landing half a zhang behind her original position.

Huo Feng was also forced back a step by the tremendous force of that kick.

To his surprise, even the web between his thumb and forefinger on his sword hand felt slightly numb.

"What incredible strength."

Before he could figure it out, Xiao Wu suddenly sprang into the air again, launching another kick straight at Huo Feng's face.

The other students in the dorm stared without blinking, afraid of missing even the slightest detail.

The combat strength the two had displayed made even these older students feel ashamed.

Were freshmen nowadays really this powerful?

Swish—!

Huo Feng lightly flicked his iron sword upward to meet her.

"This..."

Wang Sheng could not help feeling puzzled at the sight. If the boss struck from that angle...

He probably wouldn't be able to block Xiao Wu's kick.

Clang—!

Sure enough, in the next second, Huo Feng's sword was kicked aside.

Xiao Wu's right foot landed on Huo Feng's shoulder with the momentum.

Before he could react, she pushed off with her right foot and sharply raised her left leg, climbing up his body.

Under everyone's astonished gazes, Xiao Wu's legs actually wrapped around Huo Feng's neck.

Her upper body leaned back, her palms braced against the ground, and her legs were like two springs, ready to fling Huo Feng away at any moment.

Soft Technique!

Huo Feng understood very clearly that Tang San had lost to this move in the original story because he had been careless.

He had not been careless just now.

He had done it deliberately.

If he had faced Xiao Wu head-on with his sword, she would not have been able to touch him so easily.

But after expending Soul Power in his earlier spar with Wang Sheng, he would likely find it difficult to win.

Once he came into contact with Xiao Wu, however, things became much easier.

Ding! The system has detected that the host has come into contact with Xiao Wu, one of the Shrek Seven Devils. Main quest triggered! Quest: Sacrifice Xiao Wu! Note: Because Xiao Wu is a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form, the sacrifice will not have any noticeable effect on her, but it will cause her to enter a weakened state for three seconds! Exclusive quest reward: 99 exclusive Charm Value points! Sacrifice Points reward: 200 points. Does the host wish to sacrifice Xiao Wu?

Three seconds of weakness? That was enough! This information was transmitted into Huo Feng's mind almost instantaneously.

Ignoring the slick, soft sensation against his neck caused by their skin contact, he answered without the slightest hesitation.

"Sacrifice Xiao Wu!"

Ding! Xiao Wu has been successfully sacrificed! Exclusive Charm Value +99, Sacrifice Points +200. Main quest: Sacrifice the Shrek Seven Devils. Completion progress: 2/7.

At the same time, a smile appeared on Xiao Wu's face. She exerted force with both legs, intending to fling Huo Feng away.

Buzz—!

Yet in the next instant, her legs went numb and trembled as though they had been electrocuted.

Her waist, which she used to exert force through her entire body, also felt waves of tingling numbness.

She actually squeezed Huo Feng's neck once, then slid straight down his body.

The others were dumbfounded by the sight.

They had all thought the boss was about to lose, only for the situation to suddenly reverse at the final moment.

"But the boss didn't even use his sword."

"I didn't even see what happened. Did you understand?"

The students whispered among themselves.

Xiao Wu landed just as the three seconds ended.

She only felt that she had suddenly become dazed, then lost control of her body.

Before she could think further, Xiao Wu pushed hard with her legs, wanting to stand up again.

Swish—!

At that moment, an iron sword gleaming with metallic light was pointed at her.

Then it stopped, not moving forward any farther.

"I lost."

Xiao Wu's pretty face flushed red. Her large, delicate eyes blinked as she tilted her head up to examine the human who had defeated her.

For some reason, she suddenly felt that Huo Feng had become a little more charming than before.

Losing to him was normal. It was not because she had been careless.

Silently, Xiao Wu found herself an excuse.

"You're very strong too."

Huo Feng withdrew his Martial Soul Iron Sword and pulled Xiao Wu up from the ground.

His voice was calm and neither warm nor cold.

But the faint smile at the corner of his lips made him look very pleasant.

"Boss, did you use a soul skill just now?"

Seeing that the fight was over, Wang Sheng eagerly ran over from nearby, his face filled with admiration.

Huo Feng gently shook his head without saying anything else.

Wang Sheng froze, then turned his gaze toward Xiao Wu.

She shook her head as well.

They were this strong without using soul skills? Wang Sheng was stunned. Work-study students these days were truly incredible.

He was already a sixth-year student, while those two who had just sparred were merely first-years who had only recently enrolled.

Yet their combat strength was already so formidable.

"Soul skills? What are soul skills?"

Tang San, who had been lying in the corner, had somehow sat up and turned toward Huo Feng.

He had watched Huo Feng and Xiao Wu's fight from beginning to end.

Although he truly did not want to admit it, if he had fallen into Huo Feng's situation just now, it would have been nearly impossible for him to turn defeat into victory.

"Boss, what level is your Soul Power now? I feel like your strength just now was incredible."

Wang Sheng looked at Huo Feng with a curious expression.

His own Soul Power had already reached level nine. Even so, he was already the strongest among the work-study students.

That was why he had some expectations regarding Huo Feng's Soul Power.

"I have Innate Full Soul Power."

Huo Feng spoke calmly, as if he were merely stating something ordinary.

"What?"

"Innate Full Soul Power!"

"That means level ten Soul Power!"

The surrounding students immediately cried out in surprise.

Wang Sheng was also incredibly shocked. "Boss, you actually have the legendary Innate Full Soul Power!"

He had only heard of it and had never seen it before.

"Is Innate Full Soul Power rare?"

Huo Feng pretended not to understand.

"Of course, Boss. Innate Full Soul Power is one in ten thousand!"

Wang Sheng answered excitedly.

"Is that so?"

"Tang San also has Innate Full Soul Power."

Tang San's body suddenly stiffened as he was about to lie back down.
