Encountering Rogue Rabbit, Xiao Wu in Tears

Notting Academy.

Lin Chen was diligently searching for his exclusive dormitory.

Originally, he could only stay in the work-study students' dormitory, since like Tang San, he was also a work-study student.

But right after awakening the Diary System, the Newbie Gift Pack had given him a full thousand Gold Soul Coins as a reward.

This reward might not be very useful for cultivation, but it could greatly improve his quality of life and make his training more comfortable.

So, after possessing a huge sum of Gold Soul Coins, Lin Chen reported to the Teaching Affairs Office and then used the coins to book a single room for himself.

He didn't have to squeeze in with a bunch of work-study students, nor worry about Tang San detecting him while he practiced the Nine Yang Skill. He could cultivate without restraint.

"Huh? Isn't that Xiao Wu?"

"But why is she crying?"

While searching for his dormitory, Lin Chen spotted a cute girl in a pink dress with a pair of iconic rabbit ears.

With just one glance, Lin Chen recognized her as the Hundred-Thousand-Year Rogue Rabbit, Xiao Wu.

However, what piqued Lin Chen's curiosity was why this Rogue Rabbit was suddenly crying at Notting Academy.

"Could it be that the Rogue Rabbit just left the Star Dou Great Forest and is already homesick? Her mental fortitude is way too weak."

[The three famous figures of Douluo Continent—Little Brat, Gangzi, and Rogue Rabbit—I've seen them all now. Let me write a diary entry to commemorate this.]

[I just ran into the Rogue Rabbit Xiao Wu, rabbit ears, pink dress—that's definitely Xiao Wu. But what I'm curious about is why she suddenly cried. Is she homesick?]

[If that's the case, her mental fortitude is way too weak. Back when I first awakened the same waste Martial Soul as Jade Little Sword's Luo San Pao, I was disappointed, but I still kept pushing and working hard.]

[To me, these are just a bit of wind and frost. Sigh, I've finally gotten through it. Now I'm a lucky guy with a system.]

[As long as I lie low, don't show off, and write my diary every day, I'm bound to achieve something in the future.]

[Living long and seeing far, becoming a god of Douluo Continent—easy. I might even have a chance to surpass the entire Douluo universe and reach a higher-dimensional world.]

[The most important thing now is to stay far away from this hot potato, Xiao Wu, so Tang Hao won't notice me.]

[A Title Douluo like Tang Hao loves to bully the weak. Before I have any life-saving abilities, I'd better keep my distance from this trouble, Xiao Wu.]

As Lin Chen's diary entries updated.

Not far from Lin Chen, Xiao Wu began reading the contents of his Black Diary.

"Lin Chen, the diary's owner, saw me?"

Realizing this from the diary's content, Xiao Wu snapped to attention and looked around, spotting a handsome youth who looked like an Exiled Immortal.

The youth had fair skin and a pair of bright Golden Eyes that seemed to speak.

"Is that handsome boy Lin Chen?"

Xiao Wu was shocked inside. She hadn't expected to be so close to Lin Chen, the diary's owner.

She and Lin Chen were both attending Notting Academy. Didn't that mean that useless Jade Little Sword was a Teacher at Notting Academy?

Xiao Wu continued reading.

"Rogue Rabbit? Did Lin Chen discover my true identity?"

Xiao Wu's heart tightened. She suspected Lin Chen already knew she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

After all, Lin Chen had said before that their world was just a novel world.

Reading to the end, when she learned there was a Title Douluo near her, Xiao Wu trembled all over, her heart shaking uncontrollably.

She was now completely certain that Lin Chen knew she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

But what should she do now? Xiao Wu didn't know. For a moment, she wanted to run straight back to the Star Dou Great Forest.

But with her life at stake, Xiao Wu's mind was surprisingly clear.

Under the watchful eye of a Title Douluo, how could she escape?

If she even thought about running, that hidden Title Douluo would probably strike and keep her caged.

"What do I do?"

"I just saw hope of reviving Mom. I can't die before I bring her back."

Xiao Wu felt like crying but had no tears. If she'd known, she never would have come to Notting City. She never imagined a tiny place like Notting City would hide a Title Douluo.

Her luck was just too rotten.

[Huh?]

[Why is this Rogue Rabbit looking at me? I get it—it must be because I'm too handsome.]

[As expected of a Rogue Rabbit, she noticed me in an instant. It seems no matter where I am, I'm always so dazzling. Truly, natural beauty is hard to hide.]

Seeing Xiao Wu look his way, Lin Chen thought the Rogue Rabbit was eyeing him.

Lin Chen was confident. Putting everything else aside, he was genuinely handsome.

He was an orphan, but he'd had an easy life these past few years, all thanks to his handsome face.

Every time the uncles and aunties in the village saw him, they'd pinch his cheeks and then give him lots of good food.

[But I can't let Xiao Wu catch on to me. That Rogue Rabbit is a huge headache right now.]

[At the very least, I have to wait a year. After a year, Tang Hao will leave Notting City, and only then can I do as I please.]

[For this year, I'll stay as far from Xiao Wu as possible.]

After writing this last sentence, Lin Chen withdrew the Black Diary, visible only to himself, back into his mind.

At the same time.

A series of Mechanical Sounds slowly rang out in Lin Chen's mind.

[Congratulations, host, on completing the first day's diary content.]

[Since this is the host's first time completing diary content, the reward is critical-striked.]

[Congratulations, host, on obtaining two and a half levels of Innate Soul Power (talent can be enhanced), and ten tons of thousand-year True Dragon Meat (edible).] (True Dragon Meat has been stored in the system space.)

As the system's Mechanical Sound finished, an invisible Flowing Light instantly surged into Lin Chen's body.

This Flowing Light continuously reshaped Lin Chen's body, and in an instant, his Innate Soul Power rose to three levels.

The change in Lin Chen's soul power caused no ripples at all. Even if a Peerless Douluo stood before him, they wouldn't sense the shift in his soul power.

"Not bad, not bad."

"In just one day, my Innate Soul Power has increased by two and a half levels, and my talent has been transformed."

"And this True Dragon Meat—I can feed it to the Golden Dragon to help him evolve into the Golden Holy Dragon sooner."

Lin Chen was very satisfied with the first day's reward, even if it came from a critical strike.

But the Diary System's strength lay in its persistence. As his diary content grew, Lin Chen believed that before long, he could become a peerless powerhouse on the continent.

At this moment.

The Diary Copy owner's Chat Group had exploded, because Xiao Wu was already panicking.
