Afterward, Flender had Dai Mubai and Oscar lead Xiao Tian and the others to the academy dormitories. After telling them when to gather early the next morning, he left with Yu Xiaogang and Zhao Wuji.
Along the way, Oscar pulled Dai Mubai to the front and whispered in his ear, "Boss Dai, so many qualified new students joined the academy this year. And there are even three beautiful girls. Tell me, which one do you want? Your brother definitely won't compete with you for her."
With his smiling face and the thick beard covering his face, Oscar looked exceptionally lecherous.
Xiao Wu supported Xiao Tian, while Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing walked beside her. Tang San was on Xiao Tian's other side.
Looking at Oscar's appearance, Xiao Wu could not help feeling disgusted. She whispered, "Brother, don't you think he looks kind of lecherous? And is he really only fourteen?"
Xiao Tian smiled but said nothing.
Oscar's current appearance truly was not much to look at, but among the Shrek Four Scoundrels, his looks ranked second only to Tang San after his bloodline awakening. Even Dai Mubai could not compare.
Dai Mubai glanced at the three girls behind them from the corner of his eye and warned in a low voice, "You can't touch Zhu Zhuqing. She's mine."
Oscar's peach blossom eyes immediately blinked at Dai Mubai, indicating that he understood.
Zhu Zhuqing is Boss Dai's target. Xiao Wu is so close to Xiao Tian, and it seems Tang San might have some interest in Xiao Wu too? Then my target should be Ning Rongrong.
Although Ning Rongrong's figure was the least prominent among the three, she was only twelve and would definitely continue developing in the future. Both of their Martial Souls were support-type Martial Souls too, so she should be easier to pursue.
Oscar entertained those lecherous thoughts.
Ning Rongrong seemed to sense something and felt a chill run down her back. Was someone thinking something inappropriate?
Soon, everyone's dormitories were assigned.
In the girls' dormitory, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing shared a room, while Xiao Wu had one to herself.
In the boys' dormitory, Tang San shared a room with Oscar, while Xiao Tian had one to himself.
Xiao Tian was quite satisfied with this arrangement. After enduring shared dormitories for so long, he finally had a little private space for the time being, even if this wooden house looked rather run-down.
Early the next morning.
Xiao Tian and Tang San rose early as usual. After six years of Xiao Tian's training, Xiao Wu had grown used to waking up early as well.
Tang San went off alone to cultivate his Purple Demon Eye, while Xiao Tian took out the Iron Sword and Crimson Dragon Tooth that the old village chief had given him and began practicing.
The moment Crimson Dragon Tooth appeared, Fifteen's blade trembled violently as well, as if greeting an old friend it had not seen for many years.
Xiao Tian looked at the treasured sword, filled with delight. For someone like him, who loved collecting all kinds of famous swords, this was simply the perfect reward.
He also hoped that one day, he could rely on his own ability to unleash even more Chain Slashes. He felt that his Chain Slash speed was still too slow and hoped to acquire a Soul Skill that could increase his attack speed later on.
The reason he had managed to unleash it so smoothly yesterday was largely because Zhao Wuji had carelessly taken a Spirit Impact from him. Together with his temporary breakthrough in Sword Intent, it had appeared so successful.
It could not be helped. He had used the Dual Blade Style in the heat of battle yesterday because his third Soul Skill could only attack at close range. That was why he had thought of condensing a second Qi Sword, allowing himself to increase his attack frequency, break through the surface with a single point, and stack damage.
A thought suddenly arose in Xiao Tian's mind. If his reaction speed and sword-swinging speed were fast enough, could he directly intercept all the Hidden Weapons Tang San sent at him with his sword?
Xiao Tian could already imagine the shocked expression on Tang San's face when he effortlessly caught Tang San's Hidden Weapons with his sword.
Hehehe.
"Brother, should we take a walk around the village? I don't even know where the academy canteen is. We paid so much money, so they should provide meals, right?"
Xiao Wu asked curiously. No, rather than merely asking, she had already started pulling him along.
Xiao Tian checked the time and found that it was indeed about right. Just then, Tang San jumped down from the roof, while Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing emerged as well.
"Xiao Wu, Xiao Tian, did you all get up so early to cultivate?"
Ning Rongrong greeted them with a smile.
She also felt slightly strange. Could it be that she was the latest one to wake up?
When she woke up, Zhu Zhuqing had already been cultivating on the bed for quite a while.
Even so, she had woken early because she had become curious about Xiao Tian.
Seeing how powerful Xiao Tian's sword was, and sensing that Sword Intent—she had felt the same thing from Grandpa Sword before.
If she introduced Xiao Tian to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Grandpa Sword would surely be interested in him. Perhaps he might even take him as a disciple.
Xiao Tian: You're overthinking it. Give it a little more time, and Jian Daochen Xin might end up asking me to be his master.
Of course, Xiao Tian was not so disrespectful toward his elders. Since they both cultivated the Sword Path, they could have a proper discussion as friends despite their difference in age.
Naturally, none of them knew the village well, so Tang San directly dragged Oscar out of bed.
At first, Oscar was unwilling, but the moment he heard that the other three beautiful girls were going too, he immediately perked up. He even shaved off the beard he had kept.
When everyone saw the brand-new Oscar, they looked as though they had seen a ghost. Who was this person in front of them?
At that moment, Dai Mubai naturally helped Oscar salvage his image. Smiling, he said, "Don't judge Xiao Ao by how he looked yesterday. There was hardly anyone in the academy before, but now that three beautiful girls have arrived, he has to pay attention to his appearance."
Dai Mubai had been staying in his room just fine, but everyone else was already up. They could not possibly leave him alone in the dormitory, could they? He still wanted to rebuild his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing.
On the road, Ning Rongrong intentionally—or perhaps unintentionally—moved closer to Xiao Tian. Then she smiled and said, "Xiao Tian, are you interested in our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? I think you're truly very talented with the sword, and you're also very strong. I can introduce you to them, and you could even meet Jian Daochen Xin, the Sect Protecting Douluo of our sect."
Xiao Tian was somewhat surprised. Ning Rongrong had said it directly in front of everyone. Was she no longer even pretending?
However, Xiao Tian was not particularly interested. Instead, he calmly said, "As expected of the Little Princess of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. But I'm curious—how could Sect Master Ning and those two Titled Douluo allow you to travel all the way to Shrek alone?"
Ning Rongrong's smile immediately froze. "How did you know?"
This was practically an indirect admission from Ning Rongrong.
Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others were also somewhat surprised. The girl before them was actually Ning Fengzhi's most beloved daughter!
A flash of hostility flickered through Dai Mubai's eyes before vanishing.
Xiao Tian could not help waving his hand as he said, "Wasn't it too obvious? First of all, there's your Martial Soul. Then there's the unique aura you have, something ordinary direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect don't possess. Most importantly, you have enough authority to guarantee that I can meet Senior Sword Douluo. Doesn't that make it easy to guess?"
