Yu Xiaogang's voice trembled as he stared at Tang San in disbelief.
"Yes, Teacher, I succeeded. My Soul Power Level has now reached level 15," Tang San answered calmly.
There was nothing to be proud of. If, after living again, he could not even surpass his Previous Life, then would his rebirth not have been pointless?
"Wonderful, wonderful! Heaven truly has eyes!" Yu Xiaogang could not help throwing back his head and roaring, tears streaming down his face. As for Tang San knocking him unconscious earlier, he had long since forgotten it.
"I never imagined that, in my lifetime, I, Yu Xiaogang, would Witness the birth of a miracle. Little San, your talent has likely already surpassed everyone in the continent's history!"
Yu Xiaogang excitedly gripped Tang San's shoulders.
Feeling Yu Xiaogang's heartfelt joy, Tang San also felt somewhat guilty. "Teacher, I knocked you unconscious in my haste just now. I'm truly sorry..."
"You did well, you did well!"
Yu Xiaogang clearly had no intention of blaming Tang San.
"If you had not knocked me out just now, I might really have stopped you from absorbing a 900-year soul beast, and I would not have been able to Witness the birth of a miracle!"
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San with satisfaction.
"Only six years old, yet already level 15. And you possess Twin Martial Souls, with a First Soul Ring that is 900 years old. Little San, you are my pride!"
Yu Xiaogang felt the gloom in his heart swept away and could not help roaring toward the heavens. "My disciple Tang San possesses peerless talent!"
Tears streaming down his face, Yu Xiaogang could not help thinking of Spirit Hall's humiliation of him again.
"Spirit Hall, just wait. It will not be long before I personally bring Little San to your doors and let every one of you see what a true peerless Genius is!"
Two months passed quietly. Beneath the bright moon and sparse stars, with crows flying south, Gu Yuena, Qian Renxue, and Hu Liena were currently glaring at one another in Huo Yuhao's room, none willing to yield.
Meanwhile, Huo Yuhao curled up at the head of the bed, trembling.
Bibi Dong had actually entered Huo Yuhao's room just moments ago, but upon seeing Qian Renxue, she could not bring herself to stay and left on her own.
Yet even with only three of them, Huo Yuhao felt despair.
Everything had been fine not long ago. The four of them had maintained a fixed rotation, with one person coming to his room each night on average. But for some reason, they had all come to Huo Yuhao's room together tonight.
After having a huge argument, none of the three would give in. They could only turn their eyes toward Huo Yuhao in unison and make him decide.
"Everyone, could you please be kind tonight and let me sleep peacefully for one night?"
Huo Yuhao looked pleadingly at the three girls crowding onto his bed. Being used as a body pillow by different girls in rotation every day, he had not had a good night's sleep in a long time.
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was already rolling around laughing in the spiritual space, the Recording Sphere in his hand continuously capturing Huo Yuhao's embarrassing moments.
Gu Yuena blinked and said as though it were only natural, "Of course not. I already told you that I would follow you everywhere, and haven't I slept beside you every night? Why should I leave today?"
Huo Yuhao helplessly turned his gaze to Hu Liena. Tears immediately streamed from her eyes. "Sob, sob, Yuhao, Senior Sister is really scared of sleeping alone. When I'm scared, I can't sleep, and if I can't sleep, I won't have any energy the next day. If this continues, Senior Sister's body will break down..."
Huo Yuhao looked away from Hu Liena in despair, then cautiously looked toward Qian Renxue, a trace of hope in his eyes.
"Why are you looking at me? You've slept in my room before, so why can't I sleep in yours? I'm not leaving anyway!"
Huo Yuhao felt utterly powerless. He could not afford to offend any of these three, but he truly could not handle all three in one night. He would break!
"Then... how about you sleep in my room, and I go outside by myself..."
Huo Yuhao asked humbly.
"No!"
Before Huo Yuhao could finish, all three interrupted him in unison.
"Then what do you want me to do? You can't all sleep with me, can you?" Huo Yuhao spread his hands helplessly, looking utterly at a loss.
"Of course not!"
Qian Renxue glared furiously at Gu Yuena and Hu Liena, her eyes filled with reproach and dissatisfaction. "What do you two mean? We agreed that I would accompany Yuhao tonight. What is this supposed to mean?"
Hu Liena nestled pitifully in Huo Yuhao's arms, looking at Qian Renxue with an expression that made one's heart ache. "Older Sister, don't get angry. We can talk things out properly. You're making Yuhao's position very difficult..."
"Stop, stop, stop. My dear ancestors, quit fighting. How about we stop arguing tonight and play some Soul Fighting Cards together..."
Huo Yuhao cautiously offered a compromise. If these three ancestors kept causing trouble, his house of only a few hundred square meters would be torn down tonight.
Hearing Huo Yuhao's suggestion, all three could not help brightening. Playing cards together at night did sound pretty nice.
"However... just playing cards seems a little boring. How about we add some stakes..."
Hu Liena suggested from the side, a sly glint flashing in her eyes.
"Fine, let's gamble. Who's afraid of whom!"
Qian Renxue said stubbornly from the side.
Gu Yuena did not say anything, but judging from her sparkling eyes, she was also quite pleased with the proposal.
"However... what should we gamble? If it's money, none of us seem to lack that stuff!"
Qian Renxue muttered to herself as she looked around, seemingly searching for something that could serve as a wager.
"Hey, how about we gamble on something special? For example, whoever loses has to take off one piece of clothing."
Hu Liena made the suggestion to everyone. Her voice carried a trace of teasing, and her eyes had already turned toward Huo Yuhao.
Hearing Hu Liena's words, Qian Renxue nearly choked and coughed a few times on the spot. Her beautiful eyes fiercely glared at Hu Liena. "How can that work? Who gambles like that? This is Spirit Hall, not—not..."
"Not what?"
Hu Liena blinked and pressed innocently, "Older Sister, tell us, not what? We're just playing a game. Why are you thinking that way again? Or have you already decided that you'll definitely lose? Surely Older Sister isn't that lacking in confidence, right?"
Provoked by Hu Liena, Qian Renxue's temper flared. "What? Afraid of losing? Are you joking? Fine, let's gamble. I want to see who ends up losing every last piece of underwear tonight."
"Ahem, um, you two, I think this kind of wager is still a little inappropriate..."
Huo Yuhao cautiously interjected.
"Shut up!"
Hu Liena and Qian Renxue interrupted Huo Yuhao almost in unison.
Huo Yuhao quickly raised both hands in surrender.
Seeing that he could not persuade those two, Huo Yuhao could only look pitifully toward Gu Yuena, hoping she would step in and stop this absurd gamble.
"I think this suggestion is indeed quite good. Then let's begin."
Gu Yuena blinked, the corners of her lips curling upward.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's stunned expression, Gu Yuena blinked again. "What are you spacing out for? Hurry up and start. Shuffle the cards, dummy!"
