"Innate Full Soul Power! Boss, you have Innate Full Soul Power!"

"Boss, you're only six, right? You're amazing, bro."

"Remember this: when fighting in the future, don't announce your martial soul and rank first. That's a stupid thing to do. You need to know that villains die from talking too much."

Li Chen felt that Douluo Continent's custom of announcing oneself before a fight was incredibly idiotic.

Wasn't that plainly telling the enemy one's weaknesses?

Hugging his bedding, Li Chen walked without looking back to a window seat in the innermost corner. Someone was already occupying it.

But who told him he was the boss?

Li Chen turned back and asked, "Whose is this? Could you move it for me?"

He liked window seats in corners. He had liked them ever since he was in school in his previous life.

Back then, classroom corners were thrones exclusively for bad students, while good students all squeezed toward the front.

But now, the dormitory corner was where only the strongest could sleep!

"Mine, mine! Boss, I'll move it right away. Of course this spot is yours!"

Wang Sheng eagerly went to pack up his bedding. He did not have many thoughts about being the dormitory boss. Whoever was strong could be the boss.

Just then, a crisp and sweet voice came from outside the dormitory.

"Is this Seventh Dormitory?"

Everyone looked toward the door. A cute little rabbit girl in pink clothes stood prettily at the entrance.

The eyes of all the single dogs went wide.

The Seventh Dormitory residents heard someone shout, "Move aside, I'm firing!"

A sense of foreboding descended upon everyone in Seventh Dormitory. When they turned around, they saw their newly acknowledged boss raising that strange Soul Cannon of his toward the doorway.

Bang!

"Ah!"

"Oh!"

The little angel at the door was instantly blasted away.

"Holy crap, he could attack someone that cute! He really is the boss."

"Nonsense. To be the boss, you have to be ruthless and hard-hearted."

Wang Sheng, who had just criticized his former underling, turned around and immediately began flattering Li Chen.

Although he was not entirely sure how terrifying Innate Full Soul Power was, he knew that while he had heard of it, he had never seen anyone with Innate Full Soul Power.

With Innate Full Soul Power, Li Chen's future achievements would surely be limitless.

Li Chen smiled faintly. "Brothers, remember this: women only affect the speed at which I fire!"

"A good man's ambitions lie in all four directions. Don't let some woman tie you down, understand?"

Everyone hurriedly agreed, followed by another round of mutual flattery.

"Got it. Everything Boss says makes perfect sense."

"We're still young. We should listen to Boss and focus on cultivating first. Girlfriends, little sweethearts, we can talk about those after we grow up."

Only after quite a while did everyone realize that something was wrong.

One of the sharper boys was the first to react.

"Did we forget about that little girl?"

Xiao Wu, whom Li Chen had blasted out with one shot, walked back in covered in dust. Her originally delicate pink face was now so gray that she could play Cinderella without makeup.

When Xiao Wu entered and saw everyone laughing at her, her anger flared even more. When had Sister Xiao Wu ever suffered such bullying? Even in the Star Dou Great Forest, she had been one of the strongest, alright?

"Who did this? Step forward!"

Xiao Wu shouted angrily.

Someone kindly explained to her that in Seventh Dormitory, every newcomer had to duel the boss, and they would choose the strongest one. Only the strongest was qualified to be their boss.

Then everyone moved aside, and Xiao Wu saw a handsome young man dressed in black. He was much taller than her, carrying an unknown object on his shoulder, but she vaguely sensed that it was that thing which had sent her flying.

A gentle voice came over. "Miss, I didn't do it on purpose. It's just that these are the rules of Seventh Dormitory, and I can't change them. Please accept my apology."

Li Chen bent slightly at the waist and apologized to Xiao Wu with a smile.

When had Xiao Wu ever seen such a polite young man? Her face immediately reddened as she shyly said, "I'm fine. What's your name?"

"Our boss is called Li Chen!"

"Li as in Li Chen, Chen as in Li Chen."

"Oh, so your name is Li Chen. My name is Xiao Wu, Wu as in dancing."

Li Chen thought, As expected of a hundred-thousand-year-old rabbit in heat. She gets all fluttery whenever she sees a handsome guy. Tang San, I'm doing this for your own good. For the sake of your Cultivation Speed, I'll reluctantly look after Xiao Wu for you for a while.

"Can I go in now?"

"Of course."

Xiao Wu skipped into the room, but immediately afterward, they heard her mutter softly, "Oh no, I don't have any bedding. What am I going to do tonight? I can't sleep naked, can I?"

Everyone in the dormitory stared at Xiao Wu in unison, as if they had discovered a new continent.

Li Chen saw Xiao Wu turn to look at him, both hands clutching the hem of her skirt. She lowered her head slightly and said with a blush, "Boss, I don't have a blanket. What should I do tonight?"

Li Chen wanted to tease her. "No bedding? That's easy. Just go buy a set on the street. The streets are especially lively right now."

A trace of disbelief appeared in Xiao Wu's large, sparkling eyes as she twisted her braided pigtails with both hands. "Brother Chen, I don't have any money... When I came here, I spent it all on Carrots and pretty clothes. I don't have a single coin left now."

"I'm going to freeze to death tonight, boohoohoo."

Though Li Chen had lived two lives, he was still a single dog. He swore he had no unusual preferences, but Xiao Wu's coquettish act still nearly made him lose his composure!

Li Chen thought, Brothers, I'm disgracing all transmigrators, but who knew this rabbit was actually a Tea Art Master?

Although Li Chen thought Xiao Wu was rather cute, he would not spend money buying things for this rabbit.

A true big shot never spent money on women. He waited for women to spend money on him!

Li Chen leaned close to Xiao Wu's ear. Xiao Wu's face visibly reddened. "I've already arranged it for you. Someone will bring you bedding soon."

"Really? But I don't have any money."

Xiao Wu held out two fingers and rubbed them together, looking incomparably adorable. Li Chen felt that if he were not here, the little brats in this dormitory would sell even their underwear to buy Xiao Wu bedding.

Li Chen said to Little Tangyuan in his mind, "Have Tang San buy a new set of bedding. Make up the reason yourself!"

A slightly angry childish voice answered him.

"Li Chen, are you ordering me around?"

"No, no, no. I've been playing the Dragon King and Domineering CEO for too long, so I couldn't change my tone right away. How could I possibly order around the cutest Little Tangyuan in the world? It's a request, a request."

"Hmph!"

At that moment, Tang San, who had just separated from his good father, heard his Adoptive Mother's voice from inside the ring. "Xiao San, you're a new student. I think it wouldn't be good for you to go empty-handed. You should bring some gifts to the dormitory."

"That way, you can show your care for your classmates and establish your authority."

"To become king, start with Seventh Dormitory!"
