Xiao Tian did not answer Tang San's question. Instead, he asked, "Oh? I'm actually quite interested in your soul skills too. Could you tell me about that strange footwork of yours and those hands that turned dark jade-colored?"

Tang San: ...

Seeing that Xiao Tian did not want to talk, Tang San did not want to make things awkward either. He chose a bed and set down his luggage.

Just then, a little girl wearing rabbit-ear accessories and a pink dress walked in.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Xiao Wu, as in dancing. I'm a new Work-Study Student," Xiao Wu said brightly.

Wang Sheng and the others exchanged looks, their eyes full of helplessness. There seemed to be quite a lot of Work-Study Students this year.

Moreover, seeing the confidence on Xiao Wu's face, Wang Sheng swallowed and could not help asking, "Xiao Wu, what is your Martial Soul, and what is your Innate Soul Power?"

Xiao Wu put her hands on her hips and smiled. "My Martial Soul is a rabbit—a very cute kind of rabbit. My Innate Soul Power is level ten!"

Tang San looked at the little girl before him. For some reason, it felt as though something had struck his heart. He could not explain the feeling, and he subconsciously said, "What a coincidence. My Innate Soul Power is level ten too. My Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass, which just so happens to be your food."

Only then did Xiao Wu notice the rather ordinary-looking, skinny Tang San beside her. "Huh? This is my first time hearing that someone with a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul can cultivate, and you even have Innate Full Soul Power. You're really strange. What's your name?"

"Tang San."

Xiao Wu nodded thoughtfully, then did not pay much attention to him. Someone else beside Tang San had caught her eye. "Are you a new student too? Could you introduce yourself?"

Xiao Wu looked toward Xiao Tian. This was the first time she had seen someone so handsome on her journey here.

No, he could not simply be called handsome. He gave off a resolute, sharp feeling. Though he was only a six-year-old child like her, his entire body seemed to radiate an edge.

Ding. Warning! Warning! The person before you is Asura Sword Scabbard Xiao Wu, with God-level strength and the wife of God King Tang San. The reason the host defeated Tang San just now was only because he did not wish to fuss with you. If you harm Xiao Wu, you will be on the Way of Seeking Death!

Xiao Tian directly ignored the system's warning and said to Xiao Wu, "My name is Xiao Tian. My Martial Soul is a sword, and I have Innate Level Five. I'm the new dorm leader of the Seventh Dormitory."

Afterward, Xiao Tian explained the Seventh Dormitory's rules to Xiao Wu. As expected, it immediately piqued her interest.

Xiao Wu said excitedly, "So you're the strongest one in this dorm right now? Still, I'm a little surprised. You competed with Tang San using your Martial Souls, and you actually won. Even though Tang San's Martial Soul is only Blue Silver Grass, he still has five more levels of soul power than you!

"Forget it, that doesn't matter. So if I beat you, I can become the dorm leader of the Seventh Dormitory, right? Then all of you will have to call me Sister Xiao Wu from now on!"

Xiao Wu pointed at Xiao Tian with her right hand, while her left rested on her waist. Her face was full of confidence.

Perfect. She had been the boss in the Star Dou Great Forest to begin with. Now that she had come to the human world, she naturally wanted to be the boss here too!

Tang San could not help defending himself. "That was because the dorm was too small. I couldn't move properly!"

Xiao Wu frowned. "Tang San, you're being kind of pathetic. A loss is a loss. Why do you have so many excuses?"

Tang San's face alternated between green and purple. He looked at Xiao Tian, though no one knew what he was thinking. For some reason, he felt an urge to show off in front of Xiao Wu.

Testing the Limits at the Edge of Death? Not a Chance! ### Tang San's furtive look had naturally been noticed by Xiao Tian. He had no doubt that Tang San had already remembered him—and that he was probably already on the Way of Seeking Death!

Still... with Tang San's current strength, there should not be much of a problem as long as Tang Hao did not suddenly strike without any regard for propriety. He only needed to watch out for those low-level Hidden Weapons of Tang San's.

Even so, it gave Xiao Tian quite a headache.

Xiao Tian glanced at Xiao Wu, then looked at Tang San. Suddenly, an idea came to him. He might as well court death a little harder. Heh heh.

"Tang San, why are you looking at me with such a terrifying expression? Don't tell me you hate me just because I beat you once and want to take revenge on me in private? I'm only Innate Level Five. Surely not, right?"

As though he had only just noticed Tang San's expression, Xiao Tian spoke with a face full of shock.

Ding. Host, you really do love crazily testing the limits at the edge of death. Aren't you afraid that you might suddenly die in your sleep one day? Or suddenly be poisoned while eating?

Xiao Tian said, "What else could I do? If I expose it now, Tang San will have to mind Xiao Wu's presence. He can't really use dirty tricks behind my back, can he?"

Xiao Tian's words immediately drew everyone's attention to Tang San. Tang San's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly suppressed his little thoughts. Xiao Tian's senses really are sharp.

He immediately put on an innocent smile. "Of course not. Xiao Tian must have seen wrong. You and I are both just six-year-old children. How could I possibly take revenge on you in private? I was only thinking that I hadn't displayed all my strength just now. I wanted to ask you to have another proper match outside in a few days. We can spar and improve together."

Tang San's words were flawless, instantly dispelling everyone's doubts.

Wang Sheng also smiled. "Xiao Tian, you probably saw wrong. Tang San looks so honest, and we'll all be classmates from now on. Our opponents should be those nobles."

Xiao Tian laughed inwardly. Tang San, honest?

That was the funniest joke in the world!

Xiao Wu also looked thoughtfully at Xiao Tian and Tang San. However, with her little brain, she could not figure anything out. So she said to Xiao Tian, "Xiao Tian, let's have a match. We can use our Martial Souls."

Xiao Tian nodded without saying anything. Xiao Wu's Martial Soul was basically just decoration. She could use those moves even without it, such as the Waist Bow.

Xiao Tian also raised his vigilance to the utmost. He absolutely could not let Xiao Wu's hands touch him, or he would have no ability to resist at all. He was not like Tang San, who had such powerful hand-to-hand skills. His main means of attack was still the sword in his hand!

When Xiao Wu saw Xiao Tian nod, a sly smile appeared on her lips, and she charged directly toward him.

"Fifteen, retract the sharpness of your blade. This is only a spar."

Xiao Tian spoke softly to Sword Fifteen. The sword trembled, and its blade immediately became several degrees duller.

Xiao Tian smiled in satisfaction. His Martial Soul had intelligence—it was quite interesting. Now, he would not need to hold back too much.

However, in that instant, Xiao Wu had already closed to within a meter of him. Her tiny fist shot directly toward Xiao Tian's face.

"Don't you know not to hit people in the face?"

Xiao Tian said irritably, raising his sword before himself.

Boom!

From the force of the collision, Xiao Tian and Xiao Wu were both pushed back several steps.

Xiao Tian sighed inwardly. She truly was from the Assault System. Her physical strength was formidable. Fortunately, his physique had also improved considerably from practicing swordsmanship.

Xiao Wu was slightly surprised. "Xiao Tian, are you really Innate Level Five? Why does it feel like you're about the same as me?"

After that collision, Xiao Wu became intensely curious about Xiao Tian. This did not seem like the strength of someone at Innate Level Five.

Xiao Tian: His Innate Level Five was real, but he had cheats. It had already been raised to Innate Level Ten. Heh.

"Of course it's real. I even have a certificate issued by a Lord Soul Master from Spirit Hall. I really envy people like you with Innate Level Ten."

By the end, Xiao Tian wore an "envious" expression and sighed softly.

Then Xiao Tian smiled. "Come on. Let me see your true strength. I won't hold back!"

"Hmph, I don't need you to hold back! I'm going to become the boss!"

Xiao Wu snorted.

Though Xiao Tian's strength had exceeded her expectations, she was not weak either!

The next moment, Xiao Wu gathered her soul power beneath her feet, pushed off hard, and rushed toward Xiao Tian at her fastest speed.

Tang San was shocked. So fast!

The corner of Xiao Tian's mouth curled upward. Her speed was truly fast. Then he would try the move he had just learned.

"Drunken Immortal Gazing Moon Steps!"

Xiao Tian's figure flashed. Just as Xiao Wu was about to grab him, he appeared behind her.

Seeing the opening at Xiao Wu's back, Xiao Tian grinned wickedly. "Fifteen, soften up a little."

Sword Fifteen trembled slightly. Before everyone's astonished eyes, the entire blade actually drooped downward.

Everyone: Holy crap, this sword is amazing. It can be used like that too?

Xiao Tian gripped the hilt with both hands, fixed his eyes on the hem of Xiao Wu's skirt, and swung at her butt like he was wielding a club!

"Ah!"

Feeling her butt get struck, Xiao Wu cried out and instinctively covered it with both hands.

"Xiao... Xiao Tian! You actually dared to hit my bu... there!"

Xiao Wu turned around with a flushed face.

"Ahem, we're even now. You wanted to hit my face earlier, didn't you? Too bad you failed."

Xiao Tian said it without the slightest blush or change in heartbeat.

"Bastard! If you've got the guts, let me touch you once!"

Xiao Wu stomped her foot, her face full of unwillingness, and rushed directly at Xiao Tian. She had not displayed her strength at all!

"No way!"

Xiao Tian said with a smile. Seeing Xiao Wu so exasperated was rather amusing.

"Fifteen!"

Xiao Tian released his right hand. Using the principles of the Sword Control Technique, he had Fifteen seize the right moment and directly bind Xiao Wu.

He had only thought of this move on the spot. It reminded him of Da Ben's flexible sword in Rainbow Cat and Blue Rabbit Seven Heroes. A softened Fifteen could be used as a little whip, and its inherent hardness made it difficult to break free from. Its only flaw was that he currently had no way to make Fifteen larger.

"Xiao Wu, just admit defeat. I know you have moves you couldn't use, and I didn't let you fight with your full strength. But do you know that I haven't used my full strength either?"

Since Xiao Tian was half a head taller than Xiao Wu, he lowered his head slightly as he drew close and spoke beside her ear.

Women Only Slow Down the Speed of Drawing One's Sword! ### Xiao Wu immediately felt an itch in her ear, and an unfamiliar sensation rose in her heart. A flush appeared on her tender cheeks. She instinctively stepped back half a pace and said unwillingly, "I admit defeat. Let me go."

Seeing Xiao Tian and Xiao Wu being so "intimate," Tang San's heart inexplicably clenched.

Wang Sheng and the others were all dumbfounded. Xiao Tian's Sword Martial Soul was truly bizarre. It could be hard or soft. Could it perhaps become long or short, thick or thin in the future?

Of course, what surprised them most was that Xiao Wu had actually lost!

Tang San's loss was still understandable. His Martial Soul was too weak, so he could only use hand-to-hand combat against Xiao Tian's sword. As the saying went, an inch longer meant an inch stronger. Tang San was currently weaker than Xiao Tian, which was understandable.

But Xiao Wu had a Beast Martial Soul! They could not understand it at all. Moreover, it seemed that Xiao Tian had not even used his full strength against her. He had not used the several sword shadows he had used against Tang San, nor had he used that heart-palpitating Sword Intent...

In their eyes, Xiao Tian seemed to have Xiao Wu completely under control.

When Xiao Tian saw Xiao Wu admit defeat, he naturally retracted his Martial Soul.

Then Xiao Tian ignored Xiao Wu's resentful gaze, picked a bed, and placed his luggage on it. The Iron Sword was set beside the head of the bed.

Ding. Host, this Tongzi is truly shocked. Not only did you defeat God King Tang San, but you also defeated his wife, Xiao Wu. Critical Strike Reward triggered: Ring-type Storage Soul Tool—containing one thousand cubic meters of space and capable of storing living creatures—Space Shuttle Jade Pendant, and Jie Zi Mi (Douluo version)!

Space Shuttle Jade Pendant: A one-time item. After use, it instantly transports the user to a place they have previously visited.

Jie Zi Mi (Douluo version): After use, it instantly increases all of the holder's attributes, including soul power, speed, and Mental Power, tenfold.

Holy shit!

This system might be insane, but it really gave out good stuff!

And every item it gave was something he desperately needed right now.

There was no need to mention the Storage Soul Tool. Having it would be truly convenient.

The Space Shuttle Jade Pendant was an extremely useful life-saving item. The system claimed that it would run away after he got himself killed, yet it was still giving him something to save his life. How thoughtful!

However, when Xiao Tian looked at the third reward, he froze slightly.

"Holy crap, System! I'm your father! You actually got Jie Zi Mi and even made a Douluo version of it. Does that mean this world can withstand those countless karmic consequences?"

Xiao Tian shouted excitedly in his heart.

Of course, Xiao Tian's excitement only lasted for a moment. Jie Zi Mi was not so easy to trigger. He reckoned he could only leave it to fate, but it was still an excellent trump card!

System: ???

Huh? Had it heard something wrong? Did its host say something wrong?

Shouldn't it be the father?!

At that moment, an academy staff member came through the door. "Is Tang San here? Master asked me to bring over some bedding."

Tang San looked at the rather exquisite bedding, and warmth rose in his heart. However, he still kept a calm expression and said, "I am."

After the staff member placed the bedding on Tang San's bed, he told him that Master wanted him to visit after dinner, then left.
