Everyone present was stunned, unable to believe it.

"No way, did I hear that wrong? She actually chose Chu Fan, with his useless spirit, to be her study companion?"

"Becoming Qian Renxue's study companion is practically the same as becoming Grand Offering Qian's disciple. When that happens, even an ugly duckling can naturally turn into a white swan."

"Isn't Chu Fan just a little better-looking than me? In terms of strength, he's not even my match! And she actually chose him in the end!"

"A trash spirit has no right to lay a finger on our goddess."

"Damn pretty boy!"

The entire courtyard instantly erupted, with mocking laughter and insults flooding in from all sides.

Even the several Offerings were utterly baffled.

Hearing everyone's ridicule, Chu Fan merely gave a cold smile.

If I weren't unable to reveal my strength, I could wipe all of you out with one hand!

Qian Renxue heard his thoughts again. Her brows furrowed slightly as she said coldly to herself,

"This brat really knows how to brag! Reveal his strength? Does he think he's a Titled Douluo?

"Hmph, he actually dared to intrude into my thoughts. Such an arrogant brat—just wait, I'll make you regret it later!"

Chu Fan was equally confused.

He could not understand it.

Why had Qian Renxue chosen him as her study companion?

Could she have been won over by my handsome face? Sigh, this damned charm of mine, with nowhere to go.

Sure enough, handsome people are bound to have good luck too.

Chu Fan's first task was to win over Qian Renxue. He had not expected her to give him such a perfect opportunity.

Qian Renxue bit her lip and clenched her fist tightly. "Pah, you think you have charm? Just enjoy yourself while you can. Once you become my study companion, I'll make you regret it."

At that moment, Qian Daoliu was also deeply puzzled. Looking at Qian Renxue, he asked,

"Xue'er, Spirit Hall has so many talented disciples. Why did you choose someone with a useless spirit to be your study companion?"

"Grandpa, I have my reasons. Please, Grandpa, just agree to it for Xue'er." Qian Renxue grabbed Qian Daoliu's hands and kept shaking them.

Chu Fan paused for a moment, then smiled in relief.

Looking at Qian Renxue's pouting little face, Qian Daoliu recalled how she had lost her father when she was young, while her mother had shown her not the slightest concern. He had raised her alone all these years, yet he was usually busy with official affairs. She had practically grown up by herself, and a wave of guilt rose within him.

Sigh, even if Xue'er is so outstanding, even if she possesses Innate Full Soul Power, she is still just a child. She still longs for someone to keep her company.

He then said, "Very well. Kid, you shall be Xue'er's study companion from now on!"

The entire crowd was stunned. "Qian Daoliu actually agreed?"

"Grand Offering, even if she needs a study companion, you could choose one from among the other outstanding disciples. Taking someone with a useless spirit as your nominal disciple would ruin your reputation in the future.

"Besides, other than being somewhat good-looking, this brat is good for nothing. He'll only hinder Xue'er's growth." The Third Offering immediately spoke up.

Hinder her growth? Old man, want to have a little spar with me?

Qian Renxue was even more shocked.

"This brat is outrageous. Spar with the Third Elder? Isn't that just courting death? What an ignorant fool. All he knows is how to talk big."

"Third, say no more. This is Xue'er's wish. Whether he amounts to anything is unimportant. As long as Xue'er is happy, that is enough."

Qian Daoliu then led Qian Renxue over to Chu Fan. "Kid, from now on, you are Xue'er's study companion. Remember this: you are not allowed to harbor any improper thoughts toward my Xue'er. Otherwise..." As he spoke, Qian Daoliu released his pressure.

Facing the pressure of a Titled Douluo, Chu Fan nodded. "Yes."

Chu Fan put on an obedient appearance, though he chuckled inwardly.

Hmph, what's so great about that? If I weren't unable to reveal my strength, what could even you do to me?

Still, this is not bad. I can remain in Spirit Hall and develop quietly.

Hearing his thoughts, Qian Renxue glanced at Chu Fan, and a strange curve appeared at the corner of her lips. "Just a mere Titled Douluo, huh? Keep acting tough. Once Grandpa leaves, I'll beat you senseless."

Ever since the spirit awakening had begun, Bibi Dong, who was inside the hall, had been watching Chu Fan closely. The fleeting aura that had appeared during his spirit awakening had especially piqued her interest.

From that aura, Bibi Dong sensed something ancient and mysterious. Her heart was full of doubts as she kept murmuring, "How could this be? Only level-eight Soul Power."

For an ancient spirit, even the weakest Innate Soul Power would be above level ten. Take Qian Renxue's Angel Spirit, for instance. It was a powerful spirit, and Innate Full Soul Power for it meant level twenty.

"This brat is not as simple as he appears to be."

Bibi Dong smiled faintly and rose to her feet.

Her slender legs were faintly visible as she stepped in crystal shoes, swaying with Mystic Step as she walked toward the doors of the hall.

Spirit Hall, Qian Mansion Courtyard

"I shall call you Xiao Fan from now on. Since you are Xue'er's study companion, you must travel with her whenever she goes to the academy. For convenience's sake, you will live in Qian Mansion with Xue'er from now on."

"There are three rules you must remember. First, you are not to damage a single blade of grass or tree here."

"Second, you are not to commit any disobedient acts."

"Third, and most importantly, you are not to harbor any improper thoughts toward Xue'er. You must always remember your status."

"Yes," Chu Fan replied outwardly.

Are you some old lady's bound feet? So foul and long-winded? If I weren't unable to reveal my strength, I wouldn't be afraid of you at all!

"Hmph, this brat really knows how to put on an act. He even dares to look down on Grandpa. Let's see how I teach you a lesson later!" Qian Renxue thought to herself.

After finishing his instructions, Qian Daoliu turned and stroked Qian Renxue's head. "Be good, Xue'er. Study hard. I need to enter seclusion for a while, so he will accompany you from now on."

"Yes, Grandpa. Xue'er will cultivate diligently and won't disappoint you!"

"Hahaha, that is my good granddaughter, Qian Daoliu's own!"

After giving his instructions, Qian Daoliu left. Only Chu Fan and Qian Renxue remained in the courtyard of Qian Mansion.

At that moment, a smile appeared on Qian Renxue's lips.

"Grandpa has left. Let's see how I teach you a lesson!" Qian Renxue sneered.

"Chu Fan, come with me. I'll take you somewhere!"

"Where?" Chu Fan looked at Qian Renxue. The little girl was looking at him with ill intent. Could she be plotting something?

"Just come with me!"

Chu Fan shook his head and followed Qian Renxue into the rear courtyard.

At that moment, Qian Renxue sneered inwardly.

Because here...

Qian Renxue kept a century-old soul beast, a Black Moon Hound.

The Black Moon Hound was entirely black and a relatively gentle soul beast. Once it recognized its master, it would remain loyal forever. Thus, it was also a popular pet among nobles.

Black Moon Hounds were generally soul beasts under a hundred years old, and their attack power was not strong.

But the one Qian Renxue kept was a century-old Black Moon Hound!

She had led Chu Fan here so Da Hei could give him a proper lesson.

"What are we doing here?" Chu Fan asked as he looked at Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue turned around and smiled at him. "You'll find out soon enough. Da Hei, go! Bite him!"

At once, a large black dog leaped out from behind Qian Renxue and pounced toward Chu Fan.

"Damn Chu Fan, let's see how I teach you a lesson!" Qian Renxue said with a smile at the corner of her lips.

But the next second—

Qian Renxue's smiling face froze instantly. Her eyes widened as she stared at the scene before her, completely dumbfounded.

Chu Fan looked at the leaping Da Hei with a single glance.

Da Hei immediately seemed to feel an endless, terrifying pressure. Before he could even reach Chu Fan, he recoiled in midair, his body trembling as he hid behind Qian Renxue.

"This..."

"How is that possible?"

"Who exactly is this guy?"

Qian Renxue's heart was shaken beyond measure!
