After looking Xiao Wu over, Zhong Li was about to tell her that he was also a new student and didn't know how to register.
Under his puzzled gaze, his body actually moved beyond his control and pointed Xiao Wu toward Tang San and his master.
He said, "There. Go over there. That Little Flathead is the teacher!"
Then, beneath the stunned gazes of four people and one beast, Zhong Li touched his own face like some kind of pervert, then looked at Xiao Wu as though she were trash and said:
"Girl, I know what you're thinking. You only came to talk to me because you want to have me—and this flawless face of mine. Let me tell you, only a girl who can't see her toes when she looks down can be considered a peerless beauty worthy of me! How could you, with your common looks, ever covet me and my face? Hehehe..."
After saying that, he ignored the rabbit's reaction and quickly headed into the academy. The new gatekeeper did not stop him either. One look was enough to tell that this young man was a noble...
Zhong Li: ...Life wasn't worth living!
Zhong Li's body somehow found his dormitory without error. Only after entering the room did his body return to his control!
Xiao Wu was dumbfounded. She subconsciously lowered her head and looked at her feet. She could see both of them clearly.
Then she seemed to recall something, and her face flushed red.
"I'm still young. I should still grow, right?"
Humiliated and angry, she walked toward Yu Xiaogang. She still had to attend school.
Ruo Tuo did not know that she had miscalculated this time. Xiao Wu had approached Zhong Li because she had been drawn to his appearance and temperament.
In the world of Soul Beasts, courtship was always straightforward. What she had said only made Xiao Wu even more interested in Zhong Li.
In her world, there had only ever been Morax. It was normal that she did not understand such things.
Ruo Tuo had read the novels Zhong Li read too, but those books did not describe how Soul Beasts courted...
What she had just used was the domineering CEO rejecting the pitiful little girl trope from those novels...
"You're too narrow-minded, grandson! What do you mean, only girls who can't see their toes when looking down are peerless beauties? Aside from that, the rest... Wait, that's not right. You're so young—why are you researching this sort of thing?"
Even Tang Hao's face, which had not smiled in six years, wore the faintest trace of amusement.
What an interesting little brat. If he really was from Spirit Hall, crippling his Martial Soul would be enough. He could spare his life...
Tang San and Yu Xiaogang: ...(Never had they seen such a shameless person!)
"You can come out now, can't you, Ruo Tuo?" If Zhong Li still could not figure out what was going on, then he really would be an idiot.
Other than the Ruotuo Dragon King, everything else from the gift package the system had distributed had long since arrived.
Before the system left, it had said that Ruo Tuo was in his Sea of Consciousness.
At first, he could not sense his Sea of Consciousness. He thought his strength was insufficient.
After absorbing two Soul Rings, he still could not sense it. He still believed he was not strong enough.
Even after absorbing a Hundred-Thousand-Year head Soul Bone and increasing his spiritual power a hundredfold, he still could not sense his Sea of Consciousness. That meant there was a serious problem...
Today, he had actually been controlled and made to do something that would take a lifetime to heal from!
"I won't! I just won't! Hehehe..."
At last, Ruo Tuo spoke in Zhong Li's mind.
Her voice did not possess the weighty solidity of stone. Instead, it was like a kingfisher skimming water, like an oriole singing...
Don't laugh like that, Ruo Tuo! The last one who laughed that way was still lying somewhere unknown!
Hearing Ruo Tuo's voice, Zhong Li fell into thought. "Female...?"
He had seen images of the Ruotuo Dragon King while scrolling through videos. Because of that enormous body, countless netizens had jokingly called her Fat Tuo, Chubby Tuo, and so on...
"Hiss..." Zhong Li sucked in a sharp breath, making an outstanding contribution to continental warming.
"Terrifying indeed!"
"You bastard, what the hell are you thinking about?! I'm not fat! I'm not chubby either!" Ruo Tuo nearly roared herself hoarse at Zhong Li.
An image immediately formed in Zhong Li's mind.
"Morax, it is time to settle all old grievances..."
"Mortal, do not overstep your bounds!"
Sensing the images in Zhong Li's mind, Ruo Tuo nearly lost control and came out to beat him up!
She had only been unable to resist controlling Zhong Li's body in order to make that little rabbit leave...
Zhong Li: Ruo Tuo is female! Hehehe...!
Academy Daily Life
Chapter 17: Academy Daily Life
Nuoding Academy was a closed Soul Master Academy.
Naturally, it had dormitories.
Ordinary noble children were generally assigned to rooms housing four to six people.
Commoner Spirit Masters lived in rooms for eight.
As for work-study students, all work-study students were assigned to the same room!
It was not that the academy looked down on work-study students. People from different circles should not always think about forcing themselves in.
What would happen if work-study students and noble children were housed together? It would be a miracle if the work-study students were not bullied half to death.
Zhong Li's dormitory was a single room. It was fully stocked with all sorts of facilities and supplies.
Three months ago, Zhong Tian had come to Nuoding Academy, found the principal, revealed his Soul Rings, and explained his purpose. That was how this arrangement had come about.
A single room and some supplies in exchange for the goodwill of a Soul Saint powerhouse—this deal was more than worthwhile!
"Ruo Tuo! You have the nerve to control me, so come out! Say something!"
Zhong Li could finally sense his Sea of Consciousness, but he could not enter it!
His Sea of Consciousness was enveloped in multicolored light. It was where Zhong Li's spiritual power was stored, yet his consciousness could not perceive what was inside.
"Hehehe..."
The only response Zhong Li received was that eerie laugh.
Zhong Li did not dwell on the fact that the Ruotuo Dragon King was a female dragon.
Morax himself had once transformed into an elegant older sister and walked across the lands of Liyue...
Seeing that the Ruotuo Dragon King was ignoring him, Zhong Li gave up.
He lay on the bed and rested with his eyes closed. Cultivation? There was no way he was cultivating. His Soul Power had awakened three months ago. Mature Soul Power should cultivate on its own.
Meanwhile
Yu Xiaogang had been teaching Tang San when some "noble child" suddenly pointed at him and called him Little Flathead!
He looked speechlessly at the sky. I used to be handsome too. It was only that the years spared no one, and time wore away my edges. I shaved my head to show my resolve and start over...
Though he was not an academy teacher, the principal was his friend!
He had been about to teach that child a lesson, but the words that followed shocked him to his core. In thirty years, he had never seen anyone so shameless!
Tang San had been single in his previous life and had not interacted with girls in this life either.
He did not understand what looking down and not seeing one's toes meant, but he was deeply shocked! Such a narcissistic person was something he had only seen once in his life!
After Zhong Li ran off, Xiao Wu skipped toward the master and disciple.
In a soft, sweet voice, she asked Yu Xiaogang:
"Are you an academy teacher? This is my Martial Soul certificate and proof that I'm a work-study student from Peach Blossom Village. Can you help me register?"
"What a cute girl!"
The master and disciple could not help sighing inwardly.
"How could that kid bring himself to say something like that?"
Yu Xiaogang had just been about to tell Xiao Wu that he was not an academy teacher.
Yet, as though possessed, he took Xiao Wu's Martial Soul certificate, glanced over it, and then his expression became somewhat unnatural.
Martial Soul Awakening Location: Peach Blossom Village
Name: Xiao Wu
Martial Soul: Rabbit
Innate Soul Power: Level Ten
Certifier: Su Yutao
A rabbit Martial Soul could have Innate Full Soul Power! Yet his Luoshanpao only had half a level!
Such a genius with Innate Full Soul Power had not been recruited by Spirit Hall. Su Yutao and Su Yuntao must be...
Yu Xiaogang did not suspect that Xiao Wu possessed Twin Martial Souls. Twin Martial Souls were not cabbages that could be found anywhere.
"Your name is Xiao Wu, right? Come with me. I'll take you to the Academic Affairs Office to register."
"Little San, go back to the dormitory first and help Xiao Wu settle in. Xiao Wu is also a work-study student. Once you get to the dormitory, you'll be roommates."
"Alright, Teacher."
Tang San had arrived at Nuoding Academy three months early, when the academy had not yet gone on break.
He had registered early using Holy Spirit Village's work-study student spot, then naturally moved into Dormitory Seven. He had even defeated the boss of Dormitory Seven and become its new boss.
The boss of Dormitory Seven for this term was not Wang Sheng yet. It was a Soul Scholar who had already cultivated to Level Ten.
Once the teachers brought the graduates to obtain Soul Rings, he would become a Spirit Master.
"Oh, right, Xiao Wu, did you bring a quilt? The academy doesn't prepare quilts for work-study students. You have to bring your own."
Seeing that Xiao Wu was carrying only a very small bundle, Tang San asked.
He knew that the academy did not provide quilts for work-study students. Even his own quilt had been given to him by his teacher.
If such a cute girl had no quilt to sleep under at night, then...(Hehehe)
Xiao Wu watched as the master and disciple worked together to solve all her current problems.
She became even more convinced that the handsome big brother who had captivated rabbits was truly capable.
"Um, I didn't bring a quilt. The academy won't provide one? I... I'm a girl, and you're a boy... How can we be roommates?"
Xiao Wu discovered Watson... Watson discovered the blind spot...
Ever since coming to human society, she had run into obstacles everywhere.
Fortunately, she was cute, so some people still showed her kindness. They gave her food and helped her "awaken her Martial Soul"...
"Uh..."
Tang San hesitated. He did not know about this. There were currently no girls in Dormitory Seven, so it was normal that he had no idea.
"Student dormitories are mixed-gender. You're both work-study students, and you're both still young... so you were assigned to the same dormitory."
Yu Xiaogang answered the question for Tang San.
Although Xiao Wu's Martial Soul was not much, she was still a genius with Innate Full Soul Power.
If he could take her as a disciple and have her keep Little San company, that would not be bad.
"Since you didn't bring a quilt, Xiao Wu, Little San, as her roommate, go buy Xiao Wu one. When Xiao Wu has money later, she can pay you back!"
Yu Xiaogang had lived for decades. Judging by Xiao Wu's clothing, she did not look like a child from a wealthy family.
As for the child who had called him Little Flathead earlier, his clothing clearly showed that he was no ordinary person.
He even wore a Soul Tool on his wrist.
Could a child with a Soul Tool belong to an ordinary family?
Ever since the craftsmanship for Soul Tools had been lost, every Spirit Master knew just how rare they were.
Even a Storage Soul Tool with only one cubic meter of space could sell for over ten thousand Gold Soul Coins!
"Alright, Teacher. Xiao Wu, what color quilt do you want?"
"Pink!"
