Transfer Student Seeks Investment

On the way back.

Xu Changqing's mode of transportation upgraded once again.

It had "advanced" from the Wood Dragon, which could only last five minutes, to the Water Dragon, which could exist for ten minutes. Compared to the Golden Dragon's imposing majesty and the Wood Dragon's ancient strength and resilience, the Water Dragon possessed a few more touches of agility and splendor. Its azure scales resembled precious jade, while layers of mist swirling around its body refracted the sunlight into dazzling, multicolored radiance.

Atop the Water Dragon's head, Xu Changqing sat with a lifeless expression, enduring the relentless curious questions from the old man and the young girl beside him.

Like who was in his family!

Why was his cultivation speed so fast!

How had he trained such a powerful physique!

After graduating from the academy, had he considered attending an Advanced Academy or joining a sect for further study!

He was so handsome—did he have a girlfriend? Was there anyone he liked at the academy?

And so on and so forth.

The barrage of questions made Xu Changqing's scalp tingle. This was even more outrageous than a household registration check. He casually answered whatever he could, and for anything he could not answer, he played dumb and muddled through.

After flying and stopping along the way, they finally returned to Notting City after two days. Xu Changqing had thought he would finally get some peace and quiet, but wherever he went, the two followed. It truly was as Ning Rongrong had said: if you won't come home with me, then I'll go home with you. It gave Xu Changqing quite the headache.

The little girl was one thing, but Sword Douluo Chen Xin was a dignified Titled Douluo. Was it really appropriate for him to follow someone around like a clingy tail?

"Senior, I still have some matters to attend to, so I'm preparing to return to Notting Academy. Outsiders need permission to enter the academy and cannot stay for long. What are your plans for you and Rongrong? Would you like me to book you a hotel?"

Xu Changqing asked, forcing himself to speak.

"No need. You needn't concern yourself with us. Go attend to your business."

Sword Douluo said with an enigmatic smile.

For some reason, the strange smile on Sword Douluo's face made Xu Changqing shudder. He had a feeling things were not that simple.

After offering an apology, he quickly chose to flee. He had truly been scared by all the questioning over the past two days.

"Sword Grandpa, you're just letting him go like that?" Ning Rongrong looked unhappily at Xu Changqing's retreating back as he fled through the gates of Notting Academy.

Sword Douluo stroked her little head and smiled. "Rongrong, sometimes pressing too hard only breeds resistance. Notting City is too small to hold a hidden dragon like him. Since you insist on recruiting him into our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, you cannot rush things. Trust Grandpa. Sooner or later, he will willingly join our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Ning Rongrong nodded as if she understood, then frowned again. "But he's gone to that Notting Academy. What if he never comes out? We can't just keep waiting outside, can we?"

Sword Douluo laughed. "Isn't that simple? Since you want to stay with him, why not enroll there too? Sword Grandpa will arrange it for you shortly. After that, it'll be up to you."

"Great idea!" Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up. She then patted her small chest and promised, "Don't worry, Sword Grandpa. Rongrong will definitely make him join our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

Sword Douluo smiled and praised her repeatedly, but inwardly he sighed. This Little Ancestor had never cared so deeply about anyone before. She had cried, made a fuss, and threatened suicide just to follow him here. Could it be that she had taken a liking to that boy?

Thinking it over carefully, that boy possessed limitless potential. Becoming a Titled Douluo in the future was practically guaranteed. His temperament was decent, and he was elegant and handsome. Other than his background, there seemed to be no flaws to pick at.

If he and Rongrong could get together, one offense and one support—wouldn't they be a match made in heaven?

Forget about carrying the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to greater heights; merely preserving its current foundation would certainly not be a problem.

"I should discuss this with Fengzhi and the others before making any plans."

Seventh Dorm.

There was no one inside.

Xiao Wu had taken her group of lackeys somewhere to have fun.

Xu Changqing had barely rested properly these past few days, and he was already utterly exhausted. The moment he touched the bed, he fell asleep.

He slept until evening, when a burst of noisy chatter woke him.

His bleary eyes turned in that direction. At the doorway, Wang Sheng and the others were crowded together, excitedly whistling.

"Other than me, there's finally another girl in Seventh Dorm. Hello, my name is Xiao Wu—the Wu from dancing."

"Hello, my name is Ning Rongrong. I'm a new transfer student."

Good lord!

Hearing the conversation from within the crowd, Xu Changqing instantly lost all sleepiness. Inwardly, he could only curse.

A dignified Young Miss of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had come to study at this tiny Notting Academy? And she had specifically joined this dorm for work-study students?

Come to think of it, after Xu Changqing and Xiao Wu became Soul Masters and gained a stable income, they could have changed dorms and stopped being work-study students long ago. They simply had grown familiar with Wang Sheng and the others here and had been too lazy to move.

For someone of Ning Rongrong's status to come to Seventh Dorm was completely out of place no matter how one looked at it.

The Little Princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the wealthiest sect on the entire continent, was moving into the work-study student dormitory of Notting Junior Soul Master Academy?

Would anyone believe that if it got out?

"Classmate Ning Rongrong, it's a pleasure to meet you. Welcome to our big Seventh Dorm family. Don't stand around at the door—come in and pick a bed first. I'll treat you to dinner later."

At Xiao Wu's enthusiastic words, the crowd gathered around the entrance scattered with a whoosh, opening up a path. Xiao Wu led the way with a smile, while Ning Rongrong followed behind with her hands clasped behind her back, the corners of her lips lifted, her steps graceful. Her gentle, lovable girl-next-door image instantly captivated Wang Sheng and the others.

Sister Xiao Wu and Xu Changqing were close. None of them could afford to offend either one, much less entertain thoughts of taking their relationship further. But surely they could compete for this new little sister, right?

However, their thoughts were immediately extinguished.

"I want to sleep here!"

At the very back of the dormitory, before the two large beds pushed together, Ning Rongrong pointed at the most unusual bed in the entire room. After speaking, she even mischievously blinked at Xu Changqing, who was leaning against the headboard and staring at her speechlessly.

"No!"

Before the owner of the bed could say anything, Xiao Wu jumped out first. Staring at Ning Rongrong, all warmth vanished from her face, replaced by vigilance. "That's my bed! If you want a bigger bed, I'll have Wang Sheng and the others put another one together for you. But not this one!"

"Your bed?" Ning Rongrong froze, then pointed at Xu Changqing in confusion. "Isn't it his bed?"

"I sleep with Changqing Gege. Is there a problem with that?" Xiao Wu raised her chin and huffed.

Sleep together?

Changqing Gege?

She called him so affectionately?

Ning Rongrong was stunned. Then an inexplicable fire rose in her heart. Has someone beaten me to the person I set my sights on?

Damn it!

Since childhood, there had never been anything Ning Rongrong could not obtain!
