"Move aside!"
Looking at Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin blocking his path, the arrogant young man's face flashed with impatience.
He directly reached out, forcefully pushing Tang Wulin and Zhao Tao aside, then strode through the gap between them.
Accompanied by several men in black, he got straight into a soul-guided car and sped away.
"Brother Tao, that guy was really too much!"
Rubbing his still slightly aching shoulder, Tang Wulin felt a surge of anger. Staring at the departing soul-guided car, he complained.
"Mm, that behavior was indeed excessive."
"But I believe East Sea City is only so big. We'll definitely have a chance to meet him again sooner or later."
"When that time comes, we can teach him a profound lesson."
"Let him know there's always someone better, and not to always look down on people!"
Hearing Tang Wulin's words, Zhao Tao smiled and nodded, a mysterious glint flashing in his eyes.
At this very moment, he had already recognized the true identity of the "young master" who had just passed by.
Wasn't that Xie Xie, the eldest young master of the Xie Family of East Sea City?
Just like them, he was also one of the first-year new students at East Sea Academy this year.
Furthermore, if nothing unexpected happened, he should even be one of their roommates.
It was precisely because of this that Zhao Tao was certain they would meet again soon.
They would even become classmates and undergo Wu Changkong's "devil training" together.
As he spoke, Zhao Tao led Tang Wulin towards the registration point of East Sea Academy.
At the registration point, four young men and women in blue academy uniforms were seated.
Leading them was a sweet-faced, energetic girl with phoenix eyes.
"Two students, are you here to register at East Sea Academy?"
Looking at Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin who had approached her, the girl spoke with a friendly voice.
"Yes, here are our recommendation letters."
Hearing the girl's words, Zhao Tao smiled and nodded, then took out his recommendation letter from his backpack and handed it over.
"Welcome to East Sea Academy. I'm your senior student, Liu Yuxin, and I'll be your guide for enrollment."
"For now, please rest in the soul-guided bus behind us. In about half an hour, once a group of students has gathered, I'll take you to the academy."
After checking Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin's recommendation letters, the girl smiled, introduced herself, and handed two temporary access passes to Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin.
After some time, the soul-guided bus finally started and drove towards East Sea Academy.
After twenty minutes of driving, the bus stopped in front of the grand gates of East Sea Academy.
It was a magnificent gate, constructed from giant stones, reaching ten meters high, exuding an aura of wealth.
The entire East Sea Academy was also quite vast, at least a hundred times larger than Red Mountain Academy.
According to Liu Yuxin's introduction, East Sea Academy was divided into an intermediate division and an advanced division.
The admission requirement for the intermediate division was to break through to become a Soul Master at an elementary soul master academy, with a maximum study period of six years.
The advanced division required a rigorous assessment, with a pass rate not exceeding ten percent.
Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin would be joining the intermediate division of East Sea Academy for their cultivation in the coming years.
"Intermediate division students, follow me. I'll take you to the Academic Affairs Office to register!"
Alighting from the soul-guided bus, Liu Yuxin led the group to the teaching building, where they received their ID cards and uniforms and completed their enrollment procedures.
Then, she led the students to the dormitory building before leaving.
"Brother Tao, our dorms are together! That's great!"
Taking out his dormitory key and discovering that he, like Zhao Tao, was assigned to dormitory 205, Tang Wulin's face lit up with joy.
"Mm, don't worry, Brother Tao will continue to protect you."
Hearing Tang Wulin's words, Zhao Tao smiled and patted Tang Wulin's shoulder.
"Thanks, Brother Tao!"
As he spoke, Tang Wulin quickened his pace, stepped forward, and proactively opened the dormitory door for Zhao Tao.
Looking inside, the dormitory space was not large, and the furniture was simple.
There were only two bunk beds, tables and chairs, a wardrobe, and other basic furniture.
After all, the students of East Sea Academy were here to cultivate, not to enjoy themselves.
Fortunately.
Each dormitory had an independent bathroom.
Unlike Shrek Academy during the Douluo Dalu: The Unrivaled Tang Sect era, where hundreds of people shared a single toilet.
And at this very moment, the two lower bunks had already been occupied.
The one occupying the left lower bunk was a tall and sturdy student, exuding a fierce and overbearing aura. His name was Zhou Changxi.
As for the other, it was an old acquaintance of Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin—
It was Xie Xie, the cold and proud young master they had encountered at the train station this morning!
"It's you! This morning, why did you shove me and Brother Tao around without any regard? You should apologize!"
Looking at Xie Xie before him, Tang Wulin immediately became furious. Pointing at Xie Xie in the distance, he reprimanded him.
"Oh, it's you guys."
"Clearly, you two were the ones who weren't looking where you were going and didn't get out of my way. How dare you accuse me?"
Looking at Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin before him, Xie Xie's face was full of disdain as he said somewhat casually.
"You, you're being unreasonable! I want to Soul Duel you!"
Hearing Xie Xie's words, Tang Wulin immediately became enraged. Pointing at Xie Xie in the distance, he issued a challenge.
"You want to challenge me? You're not worthy!"
Seeing that Tang Wulin dared to provoke him, Xie Xie's disdain intensified. He simply waved his hand and stopped paying attention to Tang Wulin.
Xie Xie's actions left Tang Wulin seething with anger, yet feeling like he had no way to vent it.
"Hey, you two newcomers, go clean the sanitation!"
Just then, Zhou Changxi, who occupied the left lower bunk, scanned Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin from head to toe.
Seeing that their physiques were not as tall as his and their clothing was not as luxurious as Xie Xie's, clearly indicating they were commoners, Zhou Changxi pointed to the broom beside him and said loudly.
"On what grounds? If anyone's cleaning, we'll all clean together!"
Hearing Zhou Changxi's words, Tang Wulin, who was already seething with anger, could no longer suppress his rage and retorted.
"Because you are the weak. The weak should serve the strong!"
"If you're not convinced, I, Zhou Changxi, don't mind teaching you a lesson and letting you know what's what!"
Looking at Tang Wulin's angry expression, Zhou Changxi still maintained a condescending demeanor, glaring fiercely at Tang Wulin and Zhao Tao, his voice carrying a fierce tone.
"You're right, the weak should serve the strong."
"However, the one who is weak should be you!"
Hearing Zhou Changxi's words, Zhao Tao smiled and nodded, putting down his luggage.
The next moment, Zhao Tao lunged forward like a cannonball, charging straight at Zhou Changxi. His fist clenched, he swung it directly towards Zhou Changxi's chin!
