"Forget it. I haven't lost anything, and I even got a bit of help from a beautiful girl."
Xiao Ge shrugged and turned to leave.
At the entrance to the new dormitory, only the broken branches that had been trampled underfoot remained, along with the person silently cursing in his heart.
"Damn! That guy's way too inconsiderate! You're supposed to be pretty capable, considering you're a good fighter in the Star Dou Great Forest. But you just stood there doing nothing and let me get beaten up!"
Huo Yuhao sighed. He couldn't help letting out a bitter laugh at the thought of that utterly unreliable Heavenly King.
He and Xiao Ge had only been punished together once, but there was no way he could ask Xiao Ge to step in and help. Besides, he had been the one to start this whole thing, and he had no excuse.
Ultimately, it was because he was too weak.
If he were strong enough, then even without relying on anyone else, he could still reach Duoduo and get his revenge on Dai Huabin!
At the thought of that guy, flames of hatred rose in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and his desire to become stronger burned even more fiercely.
To break through to level twenty as soon as possible and awaken his second martial soul, he had to work even harder!
In that case, he'd start today!
Mo Yu made up his mind and walked toward the dormitory with a determined look. His resolve caught the attention of several people nearby.
Among all the new students, Huo Yuhao was the only one who had treated him with respect, and that kindness was something Mo Yu truly appreciated. Huo Yuhao was a little short, but he was still a promising young man.
Though they had only just met and their acquaintance was brief, Mo Yu still felt a sense of closeness toward Huo Yuhao.
Not long after they left, Huo Yuhao ran into Duoduo and Fan Yu.
She had been staying with her friends for a while. At first, she had been waiting for Xiao Ge to come find her, but after seeing how long it was taking, the two women had decided to come look for him themselves.
Although Duoduo had a very strong opinion of Wang Dongliu, she didn't show any dissatisfaction on the surface. Instead, she smiled and said,
"Hello, I'm Duoduo."
As she spoke, Duoduo reached out her hand.
Noticing that Wang Dongliu's hand was as fair as a woman's, she didn't take it. She merely nodded calmly.
"Wang Dongliu."
The proud young man's manner was so much like that of a certain someone.
If Duoduo hadn't already known Wang Dongliu's gender, she might have mistaken her for a cold and aloof young man.
But now...
Duoduo had already decided to give Wang Dongliu the biggest shock of her life.
When Wang Dongliu abruptly ignored her kind gesture, Duoduo didn't mind. She simply withdrew her hand, clasped it behind her back, and turned to Huo Yuhao.
"What are you planning to eat?"
"Wang Dongliu, what do you think I should eat? You're treating, so whatever you say goes."
[The Shrek Academy cafeteria wasn't exactly famous for its food, but it was still pretty good. Even the food in the outer courtyard was delicious, and it could even be called a treat.]
[But eating in the cafeteria costs money... That means having to spend my own savings.]
[I could eat for free at the Moon Pavilion! Now that I'm at Shrek Academy, I'd still have to wait until I join the inner courtyard before I can eat at its cafeteria for free... I've been tricked into spending money!]
"Whatever I say? Then let's go to the outer courtyard cafeteria."
Wang Dongliu's mouth twitched. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a woman's voice from nearby:
"Hey!"
Wang Dongliu's ears perked up. She turned toward the source of the voice, which was Fan Yu, glaring at Wang Dongliu in disgust.
Duoduo already had a grudge against Wang Dongliu, and Fan Yu's feelings were even stronger. Especially after Wang Dongliu had just ignored Duoduo's kindness, Fan Yu grew even more displeased and couldn't help snapping:
"Don't you think you're being a little rude?"
Rude? Me?
Although Fan Yu was being hostile, Wang Dongliu still didn't lose her temper. Instead, she chuckled coldly. "What do you mean? I just shook her hand. How is that rude? Sorry, I'm a germaphobe. I don't want to shake hands."
"You!"
A germaphobe?
Was she just using that as an excuse because she thought Duoduo was a woman, and she was afraid people would misunderstand? Was she deliberately doing this to make fun of her because she knew I was a woman?
Noticing the challenging look in Wang Dongliu's eyes, Fan Yu said nothing more. She simply reached out toward Wang Dongliu.
At the same time, her hand quickly transformed. In the blink of an eye, scales covered her arm, and her hand grew long, sharp claws.
Looking for a fight?
I'm not afraid of you!
Wang Dongliu's expression changed. A pair of wings suddenly appeared behind her, their colors shifting from deep blue to pale blue and then to light blue. The wings shimmered with bright, starlike light, forming a V shape against the sky and giving off a dazzling brilliance. The white feathers on them looked like stars embedded in the heavens, sparkling and mesmerizing.
As her martial soul was released, a pair of dazzling wings unfurled behind Wang Dongliu.
The Silvermoon Falcon on her shoulder could no longer sit still, and a tremor ran through its body.
Even if the first soul ring was only a thousand years old, the second soul ring already exceeded the ideal limit for a soul ring of that rank!
This little fellow was way too extraordinary!
Wait, no. Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin had just finished fighting. Why was she starting another fight?
And why were Wang Dongliu's soul rings all purple? Wasn't her second soul ring supposed to be a yellow one? Had she obtained a thousand-year first soul ring?
But you really couldn't say that Wang Dongliu was picking a fight just because she wanted to start one with Huo Yuhao and Dai Huabin!
[A woman fighting... I love it! That must be the way the world was meant to be!]
[The only thing I hope is that women fighting in this world don't kick each other in the stomach... Thinking about it gives me a bit of a trauma.]
As Duoduo recalled the contents of the diary, the corners of her mouth twitched. She added the words "violent and savage" to her assessment of Xiao Ge.
When normal people saw two women who didn't get along about to fight, wouldn't their first reaction be to step in and stop them?
Why was your first reaction to cheer them on?
[That's not right... Fan Yu probably can't beat Wang Dongliu! Wang Dongliu's cultivation might be a little higher, and she's a bit proud, but her actual strength is truly formidable. Even if her soul power rank is lower, with her soul bones and thousand-year soul rings, she should still be able to defeat Fan Yu.]
Wang Dongliu took a deep breath.
At this age, she was indeed more ignorant than most when it came to cultivation.
But now, after realizing the importance of soul power, Wang Dongliu had been cultivating seriously for the past few days.
On the way to the Ouyang Family Spirit Academy, she had been cultivating hard every day.
As a result, she had already reached level twenty-eight!
