A Twist of Fate into Seventh Dormitory, Xiao Wu Wants to Be the Boss

Academic Affairs Office!

Director Su, who looked to be in his sixties, accepted the Spirit Hall certificates handed over by Qi Lin and the other two. After reading their contents, he looked at Qi Lin and Xiao Wu with an odd expression.

He secretly thought, What a strange thing. In past years, even children with Innate Soul Power of level five or six were rare, yet this year three with Innate Full Soul Power have appeared in a row.

Unlike the gatekeeper, he was not ignorant.

As long as one held sufficient status, it was indeed possible to have someone from Spirit Hall alter a certificate.

But what would be the point of changing it?

A person's Soul Power Level would not become Innate Full Soul Power just because their certificate was changed to say so.

Therefore, altering a certificate was entirely a thankless effort. Who would bother doing that?

Besides, in this tiny Nuoding City, who could possibly command Spirit Hall?

Not even the City Lord's Mansion could do so.

Therefore, the Spirit Hall certificates of the two children before him could not possibly be fake.

"Children, welcome to Nuoding Academy."

"I have reviewed your Spirit Hall certificates. Next, I will have someone take you to your dormitory."

Director Su smiled kindly, then turned to the two young teachers behind him. "Take these three children to their dormitory."

Upon hearing Director Su's words, Qi Lin felt rather regretful.

It seemed that he and Xiao Wu most likely would not be able to share a dormitory with Third Brother, the original protagonist.

After all, he and Xiao Wu were not work-study students.

Actually, he rather wanted to meet these characters from the original story.

Especially highly controversial figures like Grandmaster and Tang San.

But just as this thought arose—

One of the young teachers behind Director Su revealed a troubled expression.

"Director, there are already more new students this year than in previous years. These three students also arrived late, and all the beds in the regular student dormitories are now full."

Director Su immediately frowned upon hearing this.

"What is the logistics teacher doing? Did he not prepare spare dormitories?"

The other young teacher suddenly suggested, "Director, there is no need to make this so troublesome. There are still plenty of vacant beds in the work-study dormitory. We can let Qi Lin and Xiao Wu stay there temporarily."

Every dormitory at Nuoding Academy was enormous, capable of housing fifty students.

Yet the work-study dormitory currently only had twelve students.

That was including Tang San.

Director Su hesitated slightly before looking toward Qi Lin and Xiao Wu.

Qi Lin was famously considerate. How could he possibly put Director Su in a difficult position?

He smiled and said, "Director Su, let us do as this teacher suggested for now."

Director Su's eyes immediately lit up.

What a wonderful child!

He then said to the two young teachers in a slightly authoritative voice, "Since this young man has said so, take them to the work-study dormitory first!"

After saying that, he turned back to Qi Lin with a kindly expression.

"Young man, if anyone bullies you at the academy, just tell the director. I will teach him a lesson for you."

Qi Lin smiled brightly. "Then thank you, Director Su."

After leaving the Academic Affairs Office, Xiao Wu tugged on Qi Lin's clothes and whispered sneakily, "Looks like that old director is actually a good person."

Qi Lin said nothing, merely reaching out to pinch Xiao Wu's pink, chubby little cheek.

So soft!

Before long, the two teachers brought Qi Lin and the other two to the entrance of Seventh Dormitory.

One of the teachers smiled at Qi Lin and Xiao Wu. "This is the work-study dormitory. The conditions are somewhat crude and cannot compare to the regular student dormitories."

"You two will have to make do for a few days. Once the new dormitory expansion is complete in a few days, you can move out."

Qi Lin and Xiao Wu nodded and pushed open the door to Seventh Dormitory.

Inside, eight or nine children of varying ages were playing and shouting. Upon seeing someone open the door, they immediately turned their gazes over.

When they saw Qi Lin and the other two, curiosity flashed through their eyes.

Judging by Qi Lin and Xiao Wu's clothing and bearing, they did not look like work-study students.

The dark, skinny fellow at the back, on the other hand, rather fit the conditions of a work-study student.

The young teacher following behind Qi Lin and the other two stepped forward and explained why Qi Lin and Xiao Wu were temporarily staying in Seventh Dormitory. Only then did everyone understand.

So they were only staying in Seventh Dormitory temporarily because there were not enough dorm rooms!

The work-study students looked at Qi Lin, then at Xiao Wu, envy flashing through their eyes.

Especially Xiao Wu. They all thought she was incredibly adorable!

Among them, a plainly dressed boy with ordinary features and a somewhat mature air looked at Qi Lin and the other two. Curiosity first flashed through his eyes, followed by a hint of amazement when he looked at Xiao Wu.

What an adorable little girl!

But immediately afterward, he frowned slightly and quietly asked Wang Sheng beside him, "Can boys and girls live together here?"

Wang Sheng swallowed and nodded.

"Of course. I heard that boys and girls are only separated after entering an intermediate Soul Master Academy."

At that moment, after reminding them to get along peacefully with their fellow students, the young teacher who had brought Qi Lin and the other two turned and left.

Once the young teacher had left, Qi Lin smiled at everyone in Seventh Dormitory. He looked harmless and exceptionally approachable.

Everyone in Seventh Dormitory instinctively felt at once that this fellow...

Was someone they could get along with!

Only Tang San quietly watched the scene, his expression utterly calm.

Between his past and present lives, he was already over thirty years old. How could he be fooled by appearances?

Especially since he was an expert in poisons and knew all too well that the more beautiful and captivating something was, the more likely it was to contain deadly poison.

People were the same. The more deeply calculating someone was, the more harmless they might appear.

Of course, Tang San was not convinced that Qi Lin was necessarily a deeply calculating person.

After all, he was ultimately just a child. How much scheming could he possess?

Still, Tang San needed to use Qi Lin as a reminder to himself: no matter when, he could not be deceived by appearances and had to trust his instincts.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Qi Lin, and my spirit is the Four-Leaf Clover."

After Qi Lin introduced himself, Xiao Wu also blinked her big eyes energetically and copied his introduction. "My name is Xiao Wu, as in dancing. My spirit is the Soft Bone Rabbit."

"My name is Qi Yue, and my spirit is the Sickle."

After the three finished introducing themselves, Wang Sheng nudged Tang San.

Tang San was now the boss of Seventh Dormitory, so naturally he had to show off his strength before the new roommates.

Tang San could only step forward helplessly and say, "Hello. My name is Tang San. I am currently the boss of Seventh Dormitory, and my spirit is Blue Silver Grass."

Upon hearing the words Blue Silver Grass, Xiao Wu's eyes lit up as she tugged Qi Lin's hand.

"Brother Qi Lin, his spirit is Blue Silver Grass too!"

Tang San froze for a moment and looked at Qi Lin.

Wasn't his spirit the Four-Leaf Clover?

Qi Lin smiled faintly at Tang San and explained, "My Four-Leaf Clover Spirit mutated from Blue Silver Grass."

Tang San immediately understood after hearing this. On the way here, he had heard the teacher mention spirit mutations.

Generally speaking, most spirit mutations were harmful mutations. Only a very small number were beneficial mutations.

Clearly, Qi Lin was one of the lucky few whose spirit had undergone a beneficial mutation.

Ordinary Blue Silver Grass did not possess Innate Soul Power.

Afterward, Tang San explained the rules of Seventh Dormitory to Qi Lin and the other two.

Before Qi Lin and Qi Yue could react, Xiao Wu's eyes were already shining as she grew excited.

"I didn't expect the rules here to be so interesting!"

"Sister Xiao Wu loves them!"

"Since that's the case, Sister Xiao Wu wants to be the boss of Seventh Dormitory too!"

Xiao Wu waved her little fist and looked toward Tang San with an eager, challenging expression.

As Tang San met Xiao Wu's gaze and looked into her watery, sparkling eyes, his heart began pounding rapidly for some reason.

Across both his lives, this was the first time Tang San had ever felt this way.

His instincts told him that this lively, carefree-looking little girl before him—

Was absolutely a pure-hearted and kind girl!

Qi Lin: So, do I really look that much like a bad guy?
