Arrival at the Classroom

At this moment, Ye Mo had stripped down to nothing but a pair of briefs, his physique fully displayed before Wang Dong. Having previously been nourished by Life Water, although Ye Mo was only eight years old, he looked as developed as an eleven- or twelve-year-old.

The eight abdominal muscles beneath his chest formed perfect curves, seemingly filled with explosive power.

"What's that on your arm?" Although Wang Dong was dying of embarrassment and indignation inside, she still appeared calm on the surface. Little did she know that her thoroughly flushed earlobes had already given her away.

"On my arm?" Ye Mo raised his hands in confusion and looked them over. Beneath the elbow of his right arm, he spotted something resembling a tattoo.

This was...

A young woman with nine fox tails appeared in Ye Mo's mind. That perfect figure—no, now was not the time to think about that. Didn't this look like the Nine-Tailed Fox Statue from his clan?

When did it appear on my hand? Could it have been then?

"Hey, why are you having a nosebleed?" Wang Dong cried out.

"Ahem, I've got too much internal heat lately." Ye Mo wiped the blood from his nose. When had he become so pathetic?

"Still, that tattoo of yours really is unusual."

Wang Dong held Ye Mo's arm and examined it closely. The tattoo seemed to possess an inexplicable attraction, and Wang Dong stared at it without blinking.

Suddenly, the eyes of the Nine-Tailed Fox tattoo seemed to blink. Its pupils, black as ink, looked as though they could speak.

How could it move? It couldn't have moved. It must have been my imagination.

As if it had sensed Wang Dong's thoughts, those eyes blinked again, and the entire tattoo seemed to come alive.

It looked incomparably bizarre and terrifying.

Yet Wang Dong seemed not to feel that terror at all. She remained fixated on the tattoo, as though her entire soul had been drawn into it.

"Wake up."

A majestic voice exploded in Wang Dong's mind. She instantly snapped awake, gasping for breath as though she had been granted salvation.

"Hey, are you okay?"

Ye Mo's voice came from beside her, but Wang Dong had no attention to spare for him. She still had not recovered from the shock. That tattoo was simply too terrifying.

Ye Mo, standing beside her, was utterly bewildered. What was going on? She had only looked at his tattoo. Why did she look as though she had just faced a life-and-death crisis?

Ye Mo did not notice the mouth of the Nine-Tailed Fox tattoo on his arm slowly split open, as though it were smiling.

But it quickly returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.

"I'm tired. Let's sleep."

Wang Dong had no mood to answer Ye Mo. Still shaken, she glanced at the Nine-Tailed Fox tattoo on his arm, then pulled the blanket over her head.

"Alright."

Although he had not figured out what was going on, Ye Mo lay down and went to sleep as well. He would ask Wang Dong another day.

Lying in bed, Ye Mo carefully examined the tattoo on his right arm. It did not look particularly special. Why had Wang Dong acted as though she had seen a ghost?

And did this mean he had completely stolen Wang Dong from Huo Yuhao?

Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao was completely unaware of everything as he sat cross-legged on his bed in meditation, as though nothing in the outside world could disturb him.

Over the next two days, aside from eating and using the restroom, Huo Yuhao spent nearly all his time cultivating and meditating on his bed. He had completely become a cultivation fanatic.

Ye Mo, on the other hand, did not go looking for trouble with Huo Yuhao. Compared with Huo Yuhao, he seemed much lazier, but his cultivation never stopped for even a moment.

Ye Mo's total True Essence had fully reached the Bigu realm, equivalent to a level thirty-one Soul Grandmaster.

Bigu, as its name implied, allowed Ye Mo to use True Essence to absorb nutrients from the air to replenish himself, meaning he no longer needed to eat.

However, Ye Mo had no intention of changing his eating habits of many years. Besides, certain special foods in this world, such as soul beast meat, contained abundant Soul Power that could nourish the body. He certainly could not pass that up.

Wang Dong, meanwhile, intentionally or unintentionally kept some distance from Ye Mo. Whenever she saw him, she would subconsciously glance at his right arm.

Ye Mo was rather speechless about this. Ever since that night, Wang Dong had become jumpy and nervous.

If Ye Mo had guessed correctly, today was the day classes began.

Before long, Ye Mo found Class One's classroom. Naturally, this time was no exception. Since class had not started yet, nearly all the girls in the classroom surrounded him.

Sometimes, being too handsome was a mistake. Ye Mo let out a narcissistic sigh in his heart.

"Class is about to begin. What are you all doing?"

An unpleasantly hoarse voice, like a broken gong being struck, rang out. The surrounding female freshmen sensibly found seats and sat down.

Ye Mo turned his head and saw someone entering through the classroom door. It was an elderly woman with wrinkled skin and white hair. Her grizzled hair was coiled atop her head, and she wore a white robe. She was of medium height. What was particularly unusual was that she had a pair of exceptionally bright eyes, their black pupils gleaming sharply.

The elderly woman seemed to notice Ye Mo's gaze and raised her head to meet his eyes.

Ye Mo clearly saw a trace of surprise in her eyes. He frowned, obviously having no idea what had surprised her.

However, Ye Mo had also guessed the newcomer's identity. Another big shot pretending to be ordinary?

Or perhaps a big shot pretending to be an old woman?

This world was full of enigmatic big shots everywhere.

"Student, are you not going to find a seat and sit down?"

The elderly woman spoke blandly as an invisible pressure descended upon Ye Mo.

"Alright."

With Ye Mo's current spiritual power, he easily dispelled the pressure brought by the elderly woman.

Ye Mo swept his gaze around the room, and it soon settled on a spot. He walked toward another big shot in the classroom.

Before long, Ye Mo sat down on Wang Dong's other side. The two most handsome people in the class sitting together attracted the attention of nearly every girl in the classroom. However, Ye Mo froze. The person beside Wang Dong was...

"Why are you here?"

Finally finished writing it.

Tired.
