Xu Sanshi

As he spoke, Yue fed Xiao Ka and said, "Don't worry about my three, help the other classmates roast first."

"Okay." Huo Yuhao nodded.

After collecting money from the first thirteen classmates, he continued to roast fish.

Yue sat to the side and waited slowly.

"How is it?"

Xiao Ka smiled, "It's pretty good, but it would be even better if the ingredients were different. It's barely acceptable."

After glancing at Huo Yuhao, he continued, "I'll patronize his business occasionally, but I want the smallest grilled fish."

"Alright." Yue indulgently hooked the corners of his lips. "But if you really don't like it, just don't eat it. I'll take care of your portion."

"It's okay to eat it occasionally. He handles it very well; there's no taste I dislike."

Before long, a gasp could be heard from the crowd.

Yue looked up and saw a girl with rabbit ears standing in front of the stall, haggling with Huo Yuhao.

She must be Jiang Nannan.

Huo Yuhao said apologetically, "Sorry, senior. My grilled fish is not negotiable, and today's quota is sold out. The rest have already been reserved. Please come again tomorrow."

"Sorry, I just calculated subconsciously. In that case, I'll come back tomorrow." With that, Jiang Nannan turned to leave.

Just as Huo Yuhao was focused on making the grilled fish, a deep, resonant, yet angry voice suddenly rang out, "Kid, how dare you not sell it!"

Immediately after, a golden light shot towards Huo Yuhao's stall. A Gold Soul Coin was firmly embedded in Huo Yuhao's stall.

Then, a figure appeared in front of Huo Yuhao's stall and reached out to grab the grilled fish.

Fortunately, Huo Yuhao had his Spirit Eyes Martial Soul active. Just as the hand was about to grab the grilled fish, he picked up the fish and moved away from the stall. The hand grabbed a handful of charcoal fire instead.

"Kid, are you looking for death?"

The man seemed enraged and reached out to grab Huo Yuhao.

Just as he was about to grab Huo Yuhao, Yue stepped in front of Huo Yuhao and blocked him.

Two voices spoke simultaneously.

"What are you doing?"

"Stop."

The former was the peerless girl Jiang Nannan, and the latter was also a female voice.

Yue turned to look. It was the person who had been with Huo Yuhao on the day of registration, likely Beibei and Tang Ya.

Beibei and Tang Ya had already arrived in front of Huo Yuhao, checking if he was injured.

Jiang Nannan, who had already left, also walked back and looked coldly at the man in front of her. "Xu Sanshi, I've told you, there's no possibility between us. Please don't bother me again." After saying this, she turned and walked away.

"Nannan!" Xu Sanshi reached out as if to stop her, but Jiang Nannan left without looking back.

Seeing Jiang Nannan leave, Xu Sanshi turned his gaze back to Yue. "Kid, you dare to stop me? If you have the guts, come to the Dueling Arena for a spar!"

Before Yue could reply, Beibei stepped in front of Yue. "Sanshi, Yuhao is my junior brother. What do you mean by attacking him?"

Hearing this, Xu Sanshi glanced at Huo Yuhao, who was lying in Tang Ya's arms. "That guy is your junior brother? When did your Tang Sect recruit new members?"

He waved his hand, "We'll talk about this later. This is between me and this kid now."

Seeing this, Beibei once again stepped in front of Yue. He had seen this person before; he was also present on the day Huo Yuhao registered, likely a freshman. He was targeted by Xu Sanshi because of Huo Yuhao, and he couldn't just ignore the other person.

"No need, senior. Since Senior Xu Sanshi wants to spar, I'll accept." With that, the Blood Oath Pact appeared in his hand, and three rings of blue and white Soul Rings emerged behind him.

"Kid, you're a freshman, right? You're already a three-ring?" Xu Sanshi looked at Yue in surprise. His white school uniform indeed indicated he was a freshman.

Furthermore, setting aside the Soul Rings, his Martial Soul gave him a feeling that it was no ordinary Martial Soul.

"I am indeed a freshman." Yue didn't deny it. Instead, he placed his finger on his storage Soul Tool ring. "I remember that Soul Tools can be used in duels, right?"

Beibei nodded. "They can indeed be used, but why would you, with such great talent, want to become a Soul Engineer?"

"I never said I was a Soul Engineer." Yue shook his head, then a Level 3 Fixed Soul Cannon appeared beside him. "Allow me to introduce myself, Yue Hongchen. I lack everything except Soul Tools."

Xu Sanshi, seeing the Soul Tool Yue took out, almost had his soul fly out of his body in fright.

Could he withstand a Level 3 Fixed Soul Cannon? After the fight started, as a defensive Soul Elder, he wasn't confident he could stop an offensive Soul Elder of the same rank from charging it.

"Ahem, well, we're all classmates. I don't think there's any need for fighting, right?" Xu Sanshi instantly demonstrated the meaning of a true man being able to bend and stretch. "We also met by chance. I'm Xu Sanshi, and this guy is Beibei."

Yue had never seen anyone with such thick skin, but he didn't intend to actually go to the Dueling Arena with him. He dispersed his Soul Power and put away his Martial Soul and Soul Tool.

"Then, Senior Sanshi, please guide me in the future."

Xu Sanshi quickly nodded.

Beibei looked at Yue kindly. "Hello, junior Yue. My name is Beibei. Progenitor Xuan mentioned you. If you have any problems in the academy in the future, you can come find me."

Yue returned a smile and nodded. After exchanging pleasantries with the two, he took the grilled fish from Huo Yuhao and left.

He still had a mission to complete.

After he left, Beibei playfully put his hand on Xu Sanshi's shoulder. It looked like the two of them were heading to the Soul Fighting Arena.

After leaving Huo Yuhao's stall, Yue accompanied the two girls through the entire Food Festival, visiting almost every single stall.

However, he only bought two portions of everything. The reason...

"Brother, this is delicious!"

"Yiren, this is delicious too!"

Each food item was eaten a few bites before being tossed to him. After walking around, his stomach was almost full. If he hadn't used his Soul Power to speed up digestion, he wouldn't have been able to leave this Food Street.

Returning to the small courtyard in the evening, after a simple wash-up, Yue prepared to go back to his room to rest.

Seeing Xiao Ka returning to the room with Yue, Meng quickly asked, "Sister, are you sleeping with Brother?"

Her expression couldn't be hidden; she was clearly a little unhappy.

"I won't be staying long before returning to his Sea of Consciousness. It's not a big deal if we sleep together," Katyusha said matter-of-factly.

Yue nodded as well. Ever since Xiao Ka first "night raided" him and slept in his arms for a night, he had been holding Xiao Ka as he slept every night. It had become a habit.

Meng looked at the two of them, or rather, at Yue, with a pout. "Brother doesn't want me to keep him company..."

"We are siblings," Yue patiently reasoned.

"Not blood-related!" Meng turned her head away unhappily.

"But by name..."

"No blood relation!"

"But people can't..."

In the end, with no other choice and unable to refuse the little girl, Yue let her in.

A smile immediately appeared on Meng's face.

At night, with the lights off, Xiao Ka was on his left and Meng was on his right. Both his arms were pinned down. Yue didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing; he only knew that sleeping like this was truly uncomfortable.

To get a good night's sleep, Yue shifted his pinned arms, pulling the two of them into his embrace. He instantly felt much more comfortable.
