Successful Sign-In at Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy: Reward—A Set of Lingbo Weibu Accelerated Version?

Wang Xiao sneered twice. He understood the rules.

This gatekeeper merely wanted to take advantage of people and earn some extra money, which was why he put on this act.

He could only make things difficult for commoner students who gave him no benefits. He did not dare provoke the children of truly powerful families.

He immediately took out a booklet and handed it to Old Fifth Gatekeeper. "I'm a work-study student from Holy Spirit Village. This contains the results of my Martial Soul Awakening and Spirit Power Test from the Martial Soul Hall Master. Would you like to take a look?"

"Alright!" Old Fifth immediately opened the certificate and glanced at it. He was stunned. "Innate Full Soul Power? Young master, you actually have Innate Full Soul Power!"

So what if he has Innate Full Soul Power? What a pity his martial soul is a trash Blood Chicken Vine!

Otherwise, he would not have come to a junior soul master academy as a work-study student. Spirit Hall's Awakening Officer Spirit Masters would have long since taken him to Spirit Hall Spirit Master Academy to study.

Do you think I don't know all the twists and turns behind this? Who are you trying to fool?

Hmph~

"Young master, I'm sorry! There are still more than two months until the academy opens. You came a little early."

"It's fine. I can move in first." Wang Xiao had already made up his mind before coming here. He wanted to establish himself first; whether the academy had officially started or not made no difference to him.

"Th-this..." Old Fifth hesitated. There had never been such a precedent before!

Yet he did not dare offend the little boy in front of him. He had already suffered a major loss at his hands, and he had also accepted a Gold Soul Coin.

Once he had taken the money, he would be indebted. If he refused to do anything and Wang Xiao got angry, he might take the coin back.

Then Old Fifth would get beaten up again. That would truly be losing both wife and troops.

Wang Xiao simply watched him without urging him.

I'm getting into this soul master academy today, no matter what!

If he refuses to let me in, he'll regret it.

After considering it for a while, Old Fifth finally said, "Young master, how about this!"

"The academy is on holiday now. The Dean and teachers have all gone home."

"Currently, only one Master is staying at the academy. The Dean has temporarily placed him in charge of all academy affairs. I'll go report this to him, but whether he agrees or not, I can't say!"

"Mhm." Wang Xiao nodded. If his guess was correct, that Master was Yu Xiaogang.

Only someone with nowhere else to go would remain at the academy to watch over the place like a single dog.

"Alright! If this works out, I'll reward you with another Silver Spirit Coin."

"Thank you, young master! I'll definitely put in a good word with Master. Please wait a moment."

Hearing there was money to be made, Old Fifth Gatekeeper was overjoyed and energetically ran toward the dormitory building inside the academy.

Wang Xiao watched Old Fifth Gatekeeper's retreating back, not knowing what to say.

But Yu Xiaogang would definitely come to see him. After all, he had Innate Full Soul Power. How could a Spirit Master Obsessed like him possibly miss such news?

"Master, Master..." Old Fifth arrived at Yu Xiaogang's dormitory door and softly called inside a few times.

Although Yu Xiaogang did not have a very good reputation in the academy and was regarded as a useless freeloader, he was not respected by either students or teachers. In private, they all called him the useless Master.

He had become the academy's laughingstock, a topic of conversation for students and teachers after meals.

Outside, however, Yu Xiaogang's reputation was actually quite great.

Though mostly as a joke.

He had been ostracized by his family and driven out.

Though his rank was not high, his research into the Martial Soul World had made him one of the continent's foremost masters of martial soul theory.

Furthermore, Master was somewhat withdrawn by nature. Thus, in the soul master world, there were not many who truly liked him, while plenty disliked him.

Only Bibi Dong and Er Long treated him like a treasure.

As for Tang San, he had received Yu Xiaogang's favor, so that was another matter.

Old Fifth was merely a gatekeeper, yet he still feared Yu Xiaogang somewhat.

After all, the Dean supported him. With just one word from him, Old Fifth's job as gatekeeper would be finished.

Wang Xiao knew from the plot of the original novel that the Dean of this junior soul master academy thought highly of Yu Xiaogang. Perhaps he simply appreciated his talent.

Bang~

The door suddenly opened from within, and a lean, close-cropped-haired man appeared in the doorway.

He looked middle-aged, with a stern, wooden expression.

After coldly glancing at the gatekeeper outside, he asked in a deep voice, "Old Fifth, do you need something?"

"Yes, Master. It's like this..." Old Fifth explained the entire matter to him in detail, embellishing it a little along the way.

As long as I can coax Master to the gate and have him meet Wang Xiao, my task will be complete!

Then I can earn another Silver Spirit Coin and go have a good meal at Cui Xiang Restaurant tonight.

So, if he could talk his way through it, he would put every effort into doing so.

Sure enough, Yu Xiaogang heard from the gatekeeper that a student with Innate Full Soul Power had come to enroll at the academy, and he immediately headed outside, wanting to meet this genius as soon as possible.

He was idle anyway, and with such a promising specimen to study, how could he possibly let it slip away?

As Yu Xiaogang knew, across the Douluo Continent, fewer than nineteen people with Innate Full Soul Power had appeared between the Two Great Empires over the past century.

And of those nineteen, fourteen were heirs of major clans.

Thus, it was exceedingly rare for a commoner to become a soul master with Innate Full Soul Power.

As Yu Xiaogang walked outside, he wondered whether this student might also be a promising child from some great clan.

After waiting for a while, Wang Xiao saw a middle-aged man in black walk out.

One look at that crooked neck was enough—there was no need to ask. It was Master Yu.

Master Yu looked exactly as he had been described in the original novel.

Yu Xiaogang stepped outside and immediately swept his gaze over the entrance, only to find a single unfamiliar little boy standing there.

There was no doubt that this was him. "Are you Wang Xiao?"

There was not a trace of warmth in his tone.

"I am! And you are?" Wang Xiao replied.

He had no choice but to ask.

Although he knew that the middle-aged man before him was Master Yu, he could not say so, lest the man grow suspicious.

In fact, in the original novel, Yu Xiaogang was only somewhat kinder to Tang San.

No one else truly caught his eye.

Wang Xiao had come to Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy for two reasons: first, to complete the Sign-in Task given by the system; second, to leave behind some traces.

As for becoming Yu Xiaogang's disciple, forget it!

Now that Wang Xiao had the Sign-in System, becoming anyone's disciple was out of the question.

Even without the system, he would not become Yu Xiaogang's disciple.

At present, only the Sign-in System was qualified to be his teacher.

"I'm a teacher at this junior soul master academy. You may call me Master," Yu Xiaogang introduced himself.

Yet he did not mention his real name at all.

Clearly, he was concealing his identity.

Wang Xiao nodded. "Master, I'm a work-study student who came from Holy Spirit Village. I'd like to enter the academy first. The gatekeeper said you were in charge—could you make an exception and let me in?"

Even if Yu Xiaogang refused, Wang Xiao still had to enter the academy and sign in, even if he had to step over him to do it.

Wang Xiao could choose to do nothing else right now, but he absolutely had to sign in.

Even if the King of Heaven himself came, he would never be able to stop Wang Xiao from signing in.

After hearing this, Yu Xiaogang immediately said, "That's not impossible. It's just that the academy is on break now, and the cafeteria has stopped serving food. You'll have to eat outside."

"That won't be a problem. As long as I have somewhere to stay."

"Fine, then. I'll take you to the work-study student dormitory right away."

"Thank you!"

Yu Xiaogang said nothing more and led Wang Xiao toward the student dormitories behind the academy.

"Ding! You have successfully signed in at Nuoding City Junior Soul Master Academy! Reward: one set of Lingbo Weibu Accelerated Version! It will be credited shortly. Have a pleasant journey, and keep up the good work."

The Loli Voice System gave its friendly notification.

Lingbo Weibu Accelerated Version?

Wasn't that a low-martial-arts movement technique that Duan Yu, one of the three protagonists of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, had accidentally discovered in the Lingbo Cave on Immeasurable Mountain, left behind by the "Fairy Sister"?

This Lingbo Weibu Accelerated Version should be a high-martial-arts movement technique, right?

Wang Xiao was overjoyed. With Lingbo Weibu Accelerated Version, he would no longer have to fear being caught, and his chances of escaping with his life would greatly increase.

"Xiao Xiao, your spirit is Blood Chicken Vine. According to my analysis, an ordinary plant-type Tool Spirit like yours should not possess Innate Full Soul Power!" When they reached the entrance to the student dormitory, Yu Xiaogang suddenly said.

Wang Xiao was stunned.

"If I'm not mistaken, you should have another spirit that you haven't revealed. Otherwise, after your Spirit Power Test showed that you possessed Innate Full Soul Power following your spirit awakening, that Spirit Hall deacon would have already taken you to Spirit Hall to study. Why would you have come here?"

Oh, where had he heard those words before?

Wang Xiao thought for a moment before remembering. Wasn't this similar to what Yu Xiaogang had said to Tang San when they first met in the original novel?
