"Because I know you, silly little sister..." Luo Chen pinched Xiao Wu's soft little cheeks again. Of course, he couldn't say he had seen it in an anime.
At that, Xiao Wu smiled too, revealing her adorable little rabbit teeth.
Blinking, she said, "All right. Thank you, Chen Ge, for paying Xiao Wu's tuition before. Xiao Wu wants to go out and have fun too. Don't worry, Xiao Wu will definitely help Chen Ge find the most suitable soul ring."
"So cute..." With Xiao Wu helping him, Luo Chen was relieved. Later, in the dormitory occupied only by Luo Chen and Xiao Wu, Luo Chen bullied Xiao Wu for a while longer.
After bullying Xiao Wu until she was a little angry, Luo Chen went to coax and pamper her. Repeating this over and over raised his experience points to five hundred again.
During the time Tang San was around, Luo Chen would still secretly bully Xiao Wu a little every day, or secretly date her. But there was never enough time, and they had to hide from Tang San. It was like having an affair.
Luo Chen's strength had not improved much during this time. Most of his experience points had gone toward upgrading the Sharingan and the Nine Yang Divine Skill. Those two consumed the most experience.
His beginner Lightning Release only needed another four hundred proficiency points to upgrade Small Chidori. After thinking it over, Luo Chen directly used all five hundred experience points.
With Small Chidori, along with the increased perception and copying abilities of his Sharingan during this period, as well as the enhanced body strengthening and recovery from the Nine Yang Divine Skill, Luo Chen could now take on an ordinary Great Soul Master one-on-one without any problem.
Unfortunately, with only ten levels of Soul Power, he could use Chidori at most once per day.
The next day, Luo Chen, Xiao Wu, and the female teacher from before, Su Han, boarded a carriage for the Star Dou Great Forest. The journey was far, but Luo Chen had money. Naturally, they took the fastest carriage, and the round trip would take only two days.
Su Han was a female teacher Luo Chen had specifically sought out. Only later, during class, did Luo Chen learn that Su Han was actually a level-twenty-nine Great Soul Master. She was only in her twenties, yet she was far stronger than Grandmaster, who was already over thirty and still had not reached level thirty.
Su Han was also one of Luo Chen's class instructors. This junior Soul Master Academy only taught theoretical classes: identifying types of soul beasts, cultivation methods, reading and writing, and the origins of Soul Master history. It was about the same as attending elementary school—boring as hell. Luo Chen often used the Body Flicker Technique to skip class.
Bringing Su Han along was not only for safety, but also so he could gain experience more quickly.
On the road, Luo Chen saw that Xiao Wu was getting sleepy, so he gently held her close. Xiao Wu did not mind at all and lay in Lin Fan's arms, quickly falling asleep.
Luo Chen played with Xiao Wu's beautiful hair and glanced at the somewhat sexy, mature Su Han beside him. With an innocent expression, he said, "Teacher Su, my little sister is sleepy, and I'm a little sleepy too. Can I lean on you?"
"Of course. You are both my students. Come, I'll hold you." In Su Han's eyes, Luo Chen and Xiao Wu were only children. Naturally, she did not mind, gently pulling Luo Chen into her embrace.
Yet Luo Chen was still holding Xiao Wu while being held by Su Han. This blanket was far too comfortable.
Xiao Wu smelled quite nice, and so did Su Han. This was heaven on earth...
The experience points in his mind began increasing as well. It felt unbelievably good. Naturally, Luo Chen would save this experience for upgrades.
With the Goddess Cultivation System, Luo Chen's leveling in Douluo was like playing a game. Every level required experience points, and the higher his level, the more experience he would need.
But Luo Chen did not need to cultivate. He only needed to do this and that...
It seemed there was nothing bad about not being grown up yet. Ah, Luo Chen savored all of this, an innocent smile appearing at the corners of his lips.
The happiness of being a hunter was just this simple, unpretentious, and boring.
After arriving at the Star Dou Great Forest, Su Han led Luo Chen and Xiao Wu out of the carriage and into the forest. Su Han immediately released her martial soul. Her martial soul was actually a long whip, and it looked rather powerful.
Luo Chen could not help wondering what it would feel like to bully her using her martial soul. Would she make pleasant sounds like Xiao Wu?
At that moment, Luo Chen secretly signaled Xiao Wu to help find a soul beast. Xiao Wu nodded. Before long, she suddenly ran off, saying she needed to relieve herself.
More than ten minutes later, Xiao Wu returned with a Poison Horn Fire Wolf following behind her. The fire wolf was already on its last legs. Under Xiao Wu's gaze, Luo Chen lightly touched it, and it willingly offered up its soul ring before collapsing to the ground. This method was similar to a soul beast sacrifice—it was essentially suicide.
There was nothing interesting about absorbing the soul ring. At this time, Su Han curiously asked Xiao Wu where she had found the soul beast.
As foolishly as in the original story, Xiao Wu answered that she had happened to see the soul beast crash into a tree and nearly die, so she had brought it back.
This soul beast was exactly four hundred years old. It was among the best of the four-hundred-year fire-attribute soul beasts, and it even carried poison. Xiao Wu was surprisingly good at picking them out. Earlier, Luo Chen had only roughly told her what type of soul ring he wanted.
That was right. Luo Chen planned to cultivate the Peach Blossom Fan with the fire attribute, so he would not need to add any Fire Release ninjutsu later.
After absorbing his first soul ring, Luo Chen's Peach Blossom Fan had turned a rich violet color. It was no longer merely pleasing to the eye but useless in battle.
The Peach Blossom Fan could also release purple fire. Luo Chen's First Soul Skill was Purple Flame Fire Poison, which could unleash a stream of purple flames carrying poison. Barring any surprises, this soul skill was much stronger than Tang San's First Soul Skill.
On the way back, Luo Chen held Xiao Wu's small hand and said, "Thank you, Xiao Wu. From now on, whenever I need to obtain a soul ring, I'll come to you."
"Okay." Xiao Wu blinked, then said somewhat sadly, "That way, we can avoid hurting other innocent soul beasts too."
Feeling that his relationship with Xiao Wu was particularly strong at that moment, Luo Chen kissed her again.
Su Han smiled as she watched Luo Chen and Xiao Wu.
After absorbing the first soul ring, Luo Chen had reached level eleven. When they returned to Notting City Junior Academy, he discovered that he had accumulated enough experience to level up.
Advancing to level twelve required only seven hundred points. During this journey, Luo Chen had gained one thousand two hundred experience points from Xiao Wu and Su Han. He immediately used seven hundred points and successfully advanced to level twelve.
Feeling the increase in Soul Power within his body, Luo Chen secretly reveled in it. Leveling up like this felt far too good.
However, the further he progressed, the more experience points he would need. By then, he would have to bully female characters of the same level to obtain a worthwhile amount of experience.
If he could date and punish peerless Douluo goddesses like Bibi Dong and Saibo Xi, the experience he gained would be enormous. Of course, Luo Chen did not dare think about that yet. He had to take things one step at a time. Taking too big a step made it easy to fall.
While Tang San was away, Luo Chen spent more time dating Xiao Wu. So during this period, Luo Chen had constantly sought experience from Xiao Wu and the female teacher Su Han.
After shocking the rabbit every day, Xiao Wu seemed to have gotten used to it. Each time, she would make pleasant sounds and had even begun enjoying it.
A few weeks later, Luo Chen had already reached level thirteen. That was despite using only part of his experience to level up. That day, just as Luo Chen and Xiao Wu returned to the dormitory, they saw Wang Sheng lying inside, bruised and swollen.
"What happened, Wang Sheng? Who beat you?" Luo Chen asked.
Wang Sheng shook his head. "It's nothing. Some of Xiao Laoda's men beat me up. They keep bullying several of our fellow work-study students. Today, I couldn't stand it anymore and stood up for them, so Liu Long and a few of their leaders beat me together. They are all Xiao Laoda's people. We can't afford to provoke them. I'm fine."
As soon as Xiao Wu heard that, she hurriedly said, "How can that be allowed? That Xiao Laoda is only a Soul Master in his teens. Dorm 7 cannot be bullied. Chen Ge, let's challenge them and show them that our dormitory is not so easily pushed around."
Hearing this, Luo Chen thought it over. So the plot had reached this point. In the original story, this was where Tang San got to show off.
As he was thinking, the dormitory door suddenly opened. Tang San had returned, dressed in a new set of clothes and looking quite presentable.
"San Ge..." Xiao Wu's expression changed. She glanced at Luo Chen, knowing she had to pretend to like Tang San. She quickly bounced over to Tang San. Seeing Luo Chen watching from the side, she hurriedly placed both little hands behind her back and smiled. "San Ge, where have you been during this time?"
Tang San wore a foolish smile as well, staring at Xiao Wu. "I went with Grandmaster to the Soul Hunting Forest to obtain a soul ring. I really missed you these days, Xiao Wu."
"What a coincidence, I also just went with..." Xiao Wu was about to continue when she suddenly heard Luo Chen cough twice. She hurriedly swallowed the words on the tip of her tongue, nodded, and said cutely, "Mm, thank you for missing me, San Ge."
Seeing Xiao Wu's expression, Tang San took the initiative to stroke her hair. "Now that this break is over, I want to invite you to my hometown. My hometown is Holy Soul Village."
"So disgusting..." Luo Chen could not help sneering inwardly. That should be the part shown in the anime, where Tang San took Xiao Wu back to see his father. Then, after discovering Xiao Wu was absent, Tang San romantically asked Xiao Wu under the stars to become his sister. What a pretentious bastard.
"Uh... sure, we'll talk about it then." Xiao Wu glanced at Luo Chen again before giving Tang San a sweet smile.
This girl Xiao Wu had pretty good acting skills. As long as she listened, that was enough.
Tang San nodded. "Mm, it's fine. We can talk about it later. By the way, Xiao Wu, did you just say you wanted to challenge Xiao Laoda?"
Xiao Wu blinked. "Yes. He beat up Wang Sheng from our dormitory."
Tang San immediately said pretentiously, "Fine. Don't worry, I'm here. This afternoon, have Wang Sheng send word to Xiao Laoda's people and tell them to come to the woods behind the academy. I'll deal with them."
"Mm, okay, San Ge." Xiao Wu gave a sweet smile, then looked toward the protagonist standing to the side as though he had become a third wheel. "Cousin, what do you think? You're the boss of Dorm 7."
Luo Chen immediately nodded. "Of course, no problem. I believe in Xiao San's strength."
Tang San also looked at Luo Chen pretentiously. "Thank you, Chen Ge. I've already obtained my First Soul Skill. I alone am enough to handle Xiao Laoda's people."
According to the original story, Tang San should have returned in the afternoon, when the fight in the small woods was already underway. But because of Luo Chen's arrival, the timing of the plot could no longer be measured by the original story. He had not expected this guy to return early.
Luo Chen looked at Xiao Wu again. He had been a little doubtful before, but now he was reassured. This rabbit had already had so much fun with him—how could she possibly still like Tang San? At most, she saw him as a friend. Xiao Wu also seemed to have grown used to acting, and her performance was especially natural. Excellent. Luo Chen felt his plan was getting closer and closer to success.
Later, he had to find Zhu Zhuqing too. Although Luo Chen knew that Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai must have already developed feelings for each other, he would definitely steal her away. As long as the hoe was sharp enough, no corner of the wall could not be dug out.
The same went for Ning Rongrong. How could trash like Oscar possibly be worthy of her?
And that old man Grandmaster too.
However, Luo Chen thought that even after taking all those female characters for himself, he would have to make them continue pretending to string along those male leads and supporting characters, just as Xiao Wu did.
If he did not give those male leads and supporting characters a little sweetness, how could he make them watch, in the end, as the women they loved most and trusted most lay in Luo Chen's arms—after having deceived them for so many years—and suffer so much that they killed themselves?
Right, Luo Chen suddenly remembered that A Yin was revived in the end. Once he became stronger, he would have to cuckold Tang Hao too and let Tang Hao see it with his own eyes.
He would take the Sea God Douluo as well. That would count as cuckolding Tang Chen.
Thinking of all the female characters still waiting for him, Luo Chen was no longer worried.
As for Tang San wanting to show off that afternoon by taking on Liu Long, Xiao Laoda, and the others by himself, Luo Chen naturally would not let him succeed.
Luo Chen's goal was to scheme against Tang San from behind, without letting Tang San notice.
Afterward, Tang San put away all his things and lay down on his bed to rest.
While Tang San rested, Luo Chen quickly examined the Golden Finger in his mind. The Sharingan in the ninjutsu system could influence Tang San, but it would expose him. He needed to keep looking.
A moment later, Luo Chen revealed a faint smile. He glanced at Tang San and laughed inwardly. You think you can show off too? Just wait to get beaten. Watching you get pummeled by trash like Liu Long and Xiao Laoda will definitely be quite a sight.
