Unexpected Changes

As he walked back to the dormitory building and arrived at his door, Ye Qingchen found it open. His roommate had probably arrived.

A youth walked out of the room and was also stunned when he saw Ye Qingchen.

This boy is so pretty! Wang Dong'er thought as she looked at the silver-haired youth before her.

The youth had delicate features and fair skin. His large eyes were particularly striking, a pale pinkish-blue, and his neat short hair was the same color.

Ye Qingchen looked at the youth—or rather, the girl, Wang Dong'er—and said, "Hello, I'm Ye Qingchen."

Wang Dong'er stared at the ethereal youth before her, somewhat dazed. Only after a while did she say, "I'm Wang Dong. I'm your roommate too."

"I see. Are you heading out now?" Ye Qingchen was equally puzzled. In the original story, Wang Dong'er had exploded the instant she first saw Huo Yuhao. Why was she acting like a little white rabbit around him?

"Mm, I wanted to find someone to spar with. Oh, right—are you interested in sparring with me?" Wang Dong'er asked after recovering herself.

"Sure."

Feeling puzzled, Ye Qingchen asked the system, "System, what's going on with Wang Dong'er right now? Why does she feel so strange?"

Host, due to your influence on Huo Yuhao, the portion of Tang San's daughter's divine consciousness has not taken control of Wang Dong'er at this time.

"I see. System, do you think I can assimilate that portion of divine consciousness within Wang Dong'er? Or have the current Wang Dong'er devour it?" Ye Qingchen asked.

Yes. As long as the current Wang Dong'er devours that portion of divine consciousness, Tang San's attempt to influence the fate of Douluo Continent through Wang Dong'er will come to nothing. Moreover, Wang Dong'er herself may benefit immensely.

Shrek Academy covered an extremely vast area, with broad open spaces separating its many buildings. After Ye Qingchen and Wang Dong'er left the dormitory, Wang Dong'er stopped directly in the open space outside.

At the dormitory entrance, the old man reclining in his lounge chair slightly raised his head. A gleam of curiosity flashed through his murky eyes as he watched Ye Qingchen and Wang Dong'er with great interest.

Wang Dong'er looked at Ye Qingchen and asked, "Should we use our martial souls?"

"There's no need. We're only sparring, so comparing our techniques will be enough," Ye Qingchen said.

"Fine." As she spoke, Wang Dong'er tapped the ground with the tip of her left foot and instantly shot toward Ye Qingchen. Not only was she fast, but her movements were exceptionally nimble. In the blink of an eye, she had arrived before him, raising her right leg to kick at his chest.

At that very instant, Ye Qingchen moved. With Divine Void Vision activated, he quickly stepped forward while slapping his left hand toward Wang Dong'er's ankle.

"Hm? His reaction is so fast." Wang Dong'er clearly had not expected Ye Qingchen to evade her attack. She instantly withdrew her right leg, only to whip it out again like lightning.

Under Ye Qingchen's Divine Void Vision, Wang Dong'er's speed seemed several times slower. The moment her leg snapped out, he had already lowered himself into a crouch. In the next instant, he sprang up, his shoulder striking just beneath Wang Dong'er's thigh.

Her strength isn't bad. No wonder she was able to suppress Yuhao back then. As Ye Qingchen thought this, he activated Three Thousand Thunder Illusory Body and retreated backward.

"So fast!" The longer Wang Dong'er fought, the more alarmed she became. His strength far surpassed hers—whether in speed or power—yet her attacks simply could not connect.

"I'm done. Ye Qingchen, can I see your martial soul?" Wang Dong'er asked.

"Sure."

Ye Qingchen released his martial soul. Silver dragon scales appeared across his body, and the phantom of the Silver Dragon King behind him looked vividly lifelike as four soul rings revolved around him.

My martial soul is also my own true body. I can completely switch between human and soul beast forms.

"One purple and three black?! How is that possible?" Wang Dong'er was utterly shocked.

"Oh! Not bad. It seems we got quite a decent student this year." At the dormitory entrance, the Dragon God Douluo turned over in his chair as he spoke while watching Ye Qingchen.

"Nothing is impossible. Where there's a will, there's a way. As long as one's spiritual power and physical constitution are strong enough, it can be done," Ye Qingchen said.

When they returned to the dormitory, Wang Dong'er saw Ye Qingchen already sitting on his bed in meditation. She wanted to say something to him, but ultimately held it back.

System, refine the God Slaying Spear, Ye Qingchen silently commanded.

God Slaying Spear refinement in progress.

Over the next two days, aside from eating, Ye Qingchen spent nearly every moment refining the God Slaying Spear. Whenever he had time, he would tease Wang Dong'er a little and teach his Yuhao how to cultivate.

The new year's admissions finally came to an end, and the freshman dormitory building became lively. Although each room was small, they were at least shared by only two people. It was noisy outside, but the dormitories were well soundproofed.
