The Two of Them Were Set Up by Xue Wu (2)

Xue Wu watched the two of them and found it funnier the more she thought about it, but she was clearly not satisfied yet. Just then, she came up with another rotten idea.

While everyone was eating, Xue Wu slipped her hand beneath the table and lightly touched Shui Bing'er's thigh. She immediately pulled it back, then pretended nothing had happened and continued eating.

Shui Bing'er thought Ye Xiaofeng was getting fresh with her. In front of so many people, he still dared to tease her, so she viciously pinched his thigh.

Ye Xiaofeng was in so much pain that he nearly cried out, but he held it in. What the hell is wrong with this girl? Why are you pinching yourself? Are you looking for excitement or something?

"Xiaofeng, are you feeling unwell?" Xue Wu asked with a concerned expression when she saw Ye Xiaofeng in pain.

Inside, however, she was overjoyed. She had touched Big Sis's thigh, and Big Sis thought it was Ye Xiaofeng. How could she possibly let him off?

"Let's go back to the academy today," Shui Bing'er said.

"Big Sis, shouldn't we stay a few more days? We finally got the chance to come out," Xue Wu hurriedly said. What she was really thinking was, I haven't had enough fun yet. How can I keep setting you two up if we go back to the academy?

"No. We can't keep delaying things. You should start cultivating sooner and reach level 30," Shui Bing'er said rationally. After all, strength was what mattered most in this world.

"Xiaofeng, come back to the academy with us too," Shui Bing'er said gently as she looked at Ye Xiaofeng.

"I'd better not. I want to go out and make my way on my own," Ye Xiaofeng said. He did not want to put Shui Bing'er in a difficult position, after all. He was not a water- or ice-element Soul Master.

"Ah, you can't leave!" Xue Wu hurriedly said. You bastard, you stir things up and now you want to pull up your pants and leave? Not a chance. If I let you go like this, how could I face Big Sis?

"Why?" Ye Xiaofeng asked, seeing how intensely Xue Wu had reacted. In truth, he did not want to leave them either, especially Bing'er.

"Have you systematically studied knowledge about Soul Masters and soul beasts?" Xue Wu hit the nail right on the head.

"I haven't," Ye Xiaofeng said. Since he had been unable to awaken a martial soul, he had never studied any theoretical knowledge.

"If you haven't, then what the hell are you going out to gain experience for? Big Sis, aren't you going to say something to Xiaofeng?" Xue Wu unhappily turned to Shui Bing'er, though there was clearly more to her words.

"Xue Wu is right. Come back to the academy with us first," Shui Bing'er directly ordered Ye Xiaofeng. After taking advantage of me, you want to run away? It won't be that easy.

"Master, you can join Skywater Academy and systematically study knowledge about Soul Masters and soul beasts. You also have a mission: help Xue Wu and Shui Yue'er obtain thousand-year soul rings at level 30," Xiao Bing, the unreliable Heavenly Mystery System, said while they were talking.

"Xiao Bing, what reward will I get for helping them complete the mission?" Ever since being struck by lightning last time, Ye Xiaofeng no longer dared to curse at Xiao Bing.

"Master, heavenly mysteries must not be revealed." Xiao Bing spouted that useless line before falling silent again.

Ye Xiaofeng had already lost faith in this lousy system. Ever since he came to this world, it had done nothing but screw him over.

"Then I'll listen to you. I'll go back to the academy with you," Ye Xiaofeng said after giving it some thought and agreeing to their request.

This was the outcome everyone wanted to see, though each had their own motives. For instance, Xue Wu, that mischievous girl, only wanted to keep setting up her big sister and Ye Xiaofeng.

After returning to Skywater Academy, Shui Bing'er took Ye Xiaofeng straight to see her homeroom teacher.

"Teacher, his name is Ye Xiaofeng. Can my friend join our class?" Shui Bing'er asked the female teacher in front of her, who looked to be around thirty.

She was Shui Bing'er's homeroom teacher and also her master. Wang Yan usually wore glasses and looked rather frail, but whenever anyone bullied the students in her class, she would fly into a rage without hesitation. She was famously protective of her students at the academy and had the nickname Female Tyrant.

"Boy, are you also a water- or ice-element Soul Master?" Wang Yan asked expressionlessly.

"Teacher, I'm not a water- or ice-element Soul Master," Ye Xiaofeng said weakly.

"Bing'er, have you forgotten the academy rules?" Wang Yan asked Shui Bing'er with a look of disappointment.

"Teacher Wang, although I'm not a water- or ice-element Soul Master, I'm from the healing system, and my Soul Power has reached level 41," Ye Xiaofeng said.

"Boy, we don't lack healing-system Soul Masters. Bing'er, take your friend and leave," Wang Yan said, unwilling to waste any more words as she directly showed them out.

"Xiaofeng, I'm sorry. Teacher doesn't know that your third Soul Skill can increase the entire team's overall attributes by 20%," Shui Bing'er loudly said to Ye Xiaofeng.

She acted as though she was about to leave, but Shui Bing'er was really playing hard to get.

"Come back. What did you just say?" Wang Yan had clearly heard Shui Bing'er's words.

"Teacher, Ye Xiaofeng's Jade Swan martial soul has a third skill that can increase our whole team's attributes by 20%," Shui Bing'er said.

"You little brat, why didn't you say so sooner? Why beat around the bush so much?" Wang Yan immediately perked up. She had never seen such a powerful healing-system Soul Master.

"Teacher, I'm not a water- or ice-element Soul Master," Ye Xiaofeng deliberately said.

"That's not a problem. I'll speak with the dean," Wang Yan said, feeling that she had found a treasure this time.

"I have no theoretical foundation, and I don't have any combat experience either," Ye Xiaofeng continued slowly.

"Those aren't problems. I can help you solve all of them," Wang Yan said, feeling that none of Ye Xiaofeng's concerns were real issues.

"Enough. Stop talking nonsense. If you need anything, just tell Bing'er. She'll help me handle it for you," Wang Yan said, unwilling to listen to Ye Xiaofeng's trivial complaints.

"By the way, boy, have you considered taking a master? My name is Wang Yan. My martial soul is the Titan Snow Ape, and I'm a level 76 Assault System Battle Soul Master. Become my disciple, and you'll eat well and live well." Wang Yan directly brought out her trump card, speaking in a string of recruitment jargon. She did not want to miss out on such a good student.

"Teacher Wang, I haven't considered taking a master for now, haha." Ye Xiaofeng gave Wang Yan an awkward smile.

"Boy, Bing'er is my disciple. Don't miss such a good opportunity!" Wang Yan said with a sly grin as she looked at the two of them. If soft tactics would not work, then she would sacrifice her disciple's beauty.

"Teacher, what nonsense are you talking about?" Shui Bing'er's face instantly flushed crimson at her teacher's words.

"Boy, think it over carefully before replying to me. There's no need to answer so quickly," Wang Yan reminded Ye Xiaofeng. Soft tactics did not work, and beauty did not work either, so she would have to get tough.

"Teacher, he's already your student. Are you afraid he'll run away?" Shui Bing'er hurriedly said before Ye Xiaofeng could speak.

"Bing'er, go back to class first. Ye Xiaofeng and I will come afterward," Wang Yan said, sending Shui Bing'er away.

"Boy, getting Bing'er won't be so easy!" Wang Yan had understood from their earlier conversation that Ye Xiaofeng held considerable weight in Shui Bing'er's heart.

"Teacher, I understand. I'll prove myself with my strength," Ye Xiaofeng said firmly.

"I look forward to that day. You'd better not disappoint me," Wang Yan said solemnly.

"I understand." Ye Xiaofeng remained just as resolute inside.

"Class is starting. Come back to the classroom with me," Wang Yan said as she headed back, completely ignoring Ye Xiaofeng.

Ye Xiaofeng followed Wang Yan into the classroom and was stunned. Why were they all girls? There was not a single male student.

Aside from Shui Bing'er and the others, everyone else stared at Ye Xiaofeng curiously. What was going on? A handsome guy had suddenly appeared.

"Introduce yourself to everyone," Wang Yan said flatly.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Ye Xiaofeng. I'm a healing-system Soul Master, and my martial soul is the Jade Swan. If any of you get injured in the future, you can come to me for help," Ye Xiaofeng said simply.

"Everyone, applaud. Also, Shui Yue'er and Xue Wu talk too much in class. You can sit beside your sister. Ye Xiaofeng, take Shui Yue'er's seat."

After a round of applause, Teacher Wang directly rearranged the seats. Shui Yue'er was angry but did not dare say anything. Xue Wu was obviously the one who talked the most, leaving her with an unhappy expression.

Who could have known that Ye Xiaofeng would offend her on his very first day? You want to sit with Bing'er? Then I'll break you two up.

"This woman doesn't seem like a good person," Ye Xiaofeng muttered. He also felt that Teacher Wang Yan was making things difficult for him. But he could not worry about that now and could only obediently return to his seat. Fortunately, Bing'er was right in front of him.

Still, sitting with Xue Wu felt somewhat off. He just could not put his finger on what was wrong.

"Alright, class begins now," Wang Yan said, instantly becoming serious.

"There are ten types of Soul Masters: Assault System, Agility Attack System, Control System, Defense System, Healing System, Support System, Food System, Summoning System, Strength System, and Long-Range Attack System.

"A good team needs five components. Support-system Soul Masters, including healing-system and food-system Soul Masters, are responsible for supplies. Assault-system Soul Masters are responsible for eliminating enemies. Agility-attack-system Soul Masters are responsible for scouting. Defense-system Soul Masters are responsible for blocking attacks. Control-system Soul Masters need to oversee every aspect of the battlefield."

"Teacher, what about the other systems?" Shui Yue'er interrupted to ask.

"Of course, what I just mentioned was only one example. The other systems can also be categorized according to their own conditions. For example, if a summoning-system Soul Master summons a defensive type, they can develop in the direction of defense. If they summon an assault type, they can develop in the direction of assault." Wang Yan was somewhat displeased at being interrupted by Shui Yue'er, but she still explained.

"Does anyone else have any questions?" Wang Yan asked.

"Teacher, if one's attack power reaches the extreme, wouldn't there be no need for all those fancy tactics?" Ye Xiaofeng asked a question without courting death.

"Perhaps." Wang Yan stood quietly for a while before answering slowly.

"But Student Ye Xiaofeng, it's good to have imagination, yet I personally suggest that you keep your feet on the ground," Wang Yan said. She knew Ye Xiaofeng was from the healing system. Even if he entered the realm of a Titled Douluo, the healing system would still be unable to make up for its weakness in attack power.

Wang Yan's words made the entire class burst into laughter. They all mocked Ye Xiaofeng for having his sights too high. Only Shui Bing'er and the others held expectations for him.

"Alright, study on your own. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me," Wang Yan said gently.

Upon hearing Teacher Wang's words, Xue Wu perked up. She winked flirtatiously at Ye Xiaofeng, but Ye Xiaofeng ignored her completely, instantly angering Xue Wu.

Xue Wu secretly reached her hand behind Shui Bing'er's back, grabbed her hair tie, and gave it a fierce tug, snapping it painfully against Shui Bing'er.

But Xue Wu quickly withdrew her hand and quietly looked at her book, as though saying that what had just happened had nothing to do with her.

Ye Xiaofeng was completely speechless. Shui Bing'er turned around with a red face and saw Ye Xiaofeng staring blankly at her back.

Shui Bing'er was furious inside. Get lost! He's teasing me in front of so many classmates, and there's nothing I can do about him.

When Ye Xiaofeng saw that Shui Bing'er had misunderstood him, he realized that damned Xue Wu had dug another pit for him. He truly wanted to cry but had no tears.

After class, he would definitely spank that little girl until her butt bloomed. Otherwise, she would keep setting him up every day.

Meanwhile, Xue Wu kept making faces at him. Come hit me, then! Come on, come on!!!
