Tang San could not take it anymore and pushed Xiao Wu a little farther away. "We have a rule in Seventh Dormitory: newcomers have to fight the Dormitory Chief. Whoever wins becomes the boss."

"Then who's the boss?" Xiao Wu asked curiously. His gaze swept around before landing on Li Yue. "Are you the boss?"

"That's right. I am." Li Yue nodded.

This silly rabbit had pretty good eyes. She had spotted his extraordinary nature at a glance.

Should he go easy on Xiao Wu later?

After all, if he did not let Xiao Wu become the boss, she would not be able to snatch the blanket. And if she did not snatch the blanket, how would they sleep together?

If they did not sleep together, they could not build feelings. His mother was still waiting to hold a grandchild.

"After I beat you, I can be the boss! Fine, I challenge you." Xiao Wu spoke happily.

Tang San knew Li Yue's strength. Dealing with this little rabbit would be effortless for him; the only concern was that he might go easy on her.

He stepped to the side, blocking Xiao Wu's view of Li Yue. "But if you want to fight the boss, you'll have to get past me first. An opponent who's too weak isn't qualified to make Brother Yue act."

"Sure. Let me see what you can do." Xiao Wu agreed.

Fighting one was fighting, and fighting two was fighting.

The corners of her lips curled up in a confident smile. Let me show you how formidable a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast taking human form can be.

"No, I'll do it." Li Yue rejected Tang San's suggestion.

It was not because he was in a hurry to throw the match for Xiao Wu. Rather, he had changed his mind and decided to defeat her with the martial arts cultivation he had accumulated over more than ten years.

A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that had taken human form needed to come into contact with human aura, and Xiao Wu did not have a blanket.

After defeating Xiao Wu, he could ask her to share a blanket with him. Surely she would not refuse.

"Brother Yue." Tang San looked at Li Yue in surprise.

Why had Senior Brother Li Yue become so proactive? This was not his usual style.

Could he really have been captivated by this little girl?

"Don't worry." Li Yue stepped forward and shoved Tang San aside.

"I won't go easy on you." Looking at Li Yue's delicate features, Xiao Wu found it difficult to believe that he was truly powerful. Perhaps she could kick him until he cried with a single blow. She emphasized, "I have Innate Full Soul Power!"

"What? Innate Full Soul Power?" The work-study students were immediately stunned.

The Innate Full Soul Power that had seemed unimaginably distant to them had actually appeared right before their eyes.

Without another word, Li Yue released his martial soul. A Blue Silver Grass streaked with golden veins appeared in his hand.

Though he said nothing, Xiao Wu understood from Li Yue releasing his martial soul that he wanted to fight.

"Then come on." Xiao Wu took off the school uniform jacket she had just received.

This was her first school uniform, and she did not want it damaged in a fight.

Xiao Wu took her position before Li Yue.

A Blue Silver Grass sprouted beneath her foot. Even the hard ground could not stop it from taking root, growing blades of grass, and winding around the shoe on Xiao Wu's left foot.

That was right. Li Yue had secretly used his Self-Created Soul Skill, Grass Knot.

As a martial arts master, he could use every blade of grass and every tree as a weapon.

Of all the myriad martial arts, this was the soul skill—Grass Knot!

Xiao Wu did not notice Li Yue's small move. At that moment, she was staring at him. She had never seen such a good-looking human before.

Although she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form, after becoming human, she could appreciate human beauty.

"Take this." Xiao Wu raised her right leg and kicked toward Li Yue's chest. Though she had said she would not go easy on him, she still subconsciously lessened the force of her attack.

Otherwise, she would not have called out a warning before attacking, and this kick should have been aimed at Li Yue's chin. A heavy blow to the chin could knock someone unconscious.

Fortunately, the leg Xiao Wu raised was not the one bound by Grass Knot.

Li Yue raised a hand and caught Xiao Wu's leg. Using the force-manipulation method of Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, he redirected the force with minimal effort.

Xiao Wu tried to pull back her right leg, only to find it firmly held and completely immovable.

She wanted to use the force of Li Yue's grip as support and attack with her other leg, but she discovered that something had wrapped around the foot of that leg.

Not only could she not lift it, but her earlier exertion had thrown off her center of gravity. At that moment, Li Yue released her right leg and gave her a push forward, forcing Xiao Wu to fall backward.

At that moment, she used her first soul skill—Waist Bow.

It instantly increased the strength of her waist by one hundred percent and her flexibility by fifty percent.

The Soft Bone Charming Rabbit martial soul immediately possessed her body. Fluffy rabbit ears sprang from Xiao Wu's head, and her eyes turned red.

Using the force from the Blue Silver Grass wrapped around her left foot as a fulcrum, she somehow avoided falling with only the strength of her waist. Instead, borrowing that force, she returned her body to its original position.

Xiao Wu planted her right foot on the ground and used the earth's force to tear apart the Blue Silver Grass around her left foot, then kicked at Li Yue in one smooth motion.

But to her surprise, her left leg was caught firmly again, leaving her unable to move.

When she lowered her head, she found that her right foot had also been wrapped in Blue Silver Grass. She immediately realized how troublesome Li Yue was.

This time, Li Yue did not let go. He controlled the Blue Silver Grass around Xiao Wu's right leg, making it grow wildly and rendering her unable to move. Both of her legs were firmly restrained.

But Xiao Wu still had her hands. Her legs were longer than her arms, but with the added length of her waist, she could still reach Li Yue.

She swung her right fist at Li Yue's chest, only for him to catch it with his other hand.

"Good opportunity."

Seeing Li Yue use both hands to hold one of her feet and one of her hands, leaving no openings—

Xiao Wu instead felt that this was her chance, because she still had one hand left: her left hand.

Just as she wanted to attack with it, she discovered that she could not move.

The Blue Silver Grass at her right leg had already gradually spread up her body, binding her left hand.

It still did not stop. The Blue Silver Grass wrapped around Xiao Wu's entire body, binding her into a cocoon of Blue Silver Grass.

Other than her head, which remained exposed, every part of her body was tightly bound.

"Does that mean I've won?"

Li Yue looked at Xiao Wu lying on the ground and smiled. He extended a hand as white as jade.

Years of practicing Mysterious Jade Hand had made his hands resemble creamy white jade.

The rest of his body was the same, because he had expanded Mysterious Jade Hand into Mysterious Jade Body.

With those hands, Li Yue grabbed Xiao Wu's rabbit ears and began rubbing them. He had wanted to try this for a long time, and sure enough, they felt exactly like rabbit ears.

"Xiao Wu, it seems that even though rabbits can eat grass, you were still defeated by me."

Li Yue smiled happily. He had become a Reverse Attribute Master for once—grass defeating a rabbit was a reversal of attributes as well.

"I lost..." Xiao Wu's gaze was somewhat vacant.

I was actually defeated by a human child, and his martial soul was Blue Silver Grass, the very food I eat. In other words, I was defeated by food.

Tang San looked at Xiao Wu sympathetically. He could tell that Senior Brother Li Yue had not gotten serious at all; he was merely toying with this little rabbit.

Sure enough, Senior Brother Li Yue was still the Li Yue who devoted himself wholeheartedly to martial arts and showed no mercy to women.

There were quite a few women in the Tang Sect who pursued Senior Brother Li Yue.

Not to mention the female outer disciples, who thought that if they could unite with Senior Brother, their child would become an Inner Disciple.

Even within the inner sect, female disciples of the Tang Family beyond the fifth degree of kinship pursued Senior Brother Li Yue, but he turned them all down.
