Ning Tian stood gracefully beside Moyuan, the corners of her rosy lips involuntarily curving into a smile. She was clearly amused by Xu Sanshi's antics.

However, her attention soon shifted back to Moyuan. She hadn't noticed before due to her worry, but now that she had a moment to think, Ning Tian realized Moyuan's school uniform was gone, and he carried a faint scent of rose fragrance.

Upon smelling the fragrance, Ning Tian was slightly stunned, and a sense of crisis arose in her heart. Although Moyuan couldn't have been flirting with Ma Xiaotao during the previous grand battle, there had been a period of silence between them after the extreme cold erupted.

No one knew what had happened during that time. If it were just his uniform being damaged, it would be fine, but if the two of them had developed any other entanglement...

Ning Tian looked down at her toes, immediately feeling at a disadvantage compared to Ma Xiaotao.

Moyuan, having dealt with Xu Sanshi, turned around and saw Ning Tian looking down at the ground, and asked in confusion, "What are you looking at? Is there something on the ground?"

Hearing this, Ning Tian immediately looked up, her gaze shifting away. A blush of shyness appeared on her face. What was I thinking? How could I compare myself to that woman...

Moyuan was bewildered by Ning Tian's rapid shift from dejection to shyness. However, due to his extreme fatigue, he didn't want to ask further.

"Let's go. It's getting late, we should head back to the dormitory."

"Ah... Okay."

Ning Tian, having snapped back to reality, stared at Moyuan walking ahead of her for a long time. Suddenly, she quickened her pace, and Moyuan felt his right hand being grasped by a slender, delicate jade hand.

He turned his head and saw Ning Tian, her face flushed, nonchalantly observing the faintly visible academy not far away. Moyuan merely smiled silently.

Then, his right hand slowly tightened its grip slightly...

The earth gradually awakened, a sliver of morning light breaking the silence of the night. The dark sky turned a dark blue, and a hint of dawn appeared in the distant east. As the first rays of sunlight fell upon the quiet plaza of Shrek Academy, a new day had arrived...

Today was also the first day of the academy's start of school.

The new student dormitory suddenly became noisy. Although the dormitory's soundproofing was good, it couldn't withstand the entire dormitory building shaking, which startled Moyuan from his sleep.

"I really dislike being woken up suddenly from my sleep. It feels like I'm about to kick the bucket..."

Actually, Moyuan had always had regular sleep habits. But after yesterday's battle, which had pushed him to his limits, the accumulated fatigue had made him sleep unusually soundly.

"Moyuan, are you in the dorm? I thought you wouldn't be back last night."

Bai Yi, also woken by the commotion, saw Moyuan getting up and dressing. A knowing look, the kind men understand, appeared in his eyes as he spoke teasingly.

Clearly, he had seen Moyuan and Ning Tian together last night.

Moyuan simply smiled and didn't offer any further explanation. At times like these, the more you explain, the less clear it becomes.

After a brief greeting, Moyuan rolled out of bed. Fortunately, each freshman was issued two sets of school uniforms; otherwise, he wouldn't have had anything to wear on the first day of school.

After putting on his uniform and tidying up his personal belongings, Moyuan and Bai Yi pushed open their dorm room door, preparing to eat breakfast at the school canteen before heading to class for registration.

At the same time, the door of dorm room 108 opposite theirs was also pushed open, and a slender, ordinary-looking youth with clear eyes emerged.

Huo Yuhao was taken aback when he saw Moyuan and Bai Yi emerge from the opposite dorm. He hadn't expected that Moyuan, a genius whose Soul Power was above level thirty at the age of eleven, would be living right across from him.

However, in Huo Yuhao's eyes, they had only met once and weren't familiar with each other, so he simply smiled and nodded as a gesture of acknowledgement.

Moyuan returned the smile and then left the Dormitory Building with Bai Yi. If everything went according to Tang San's plan, he and Huo Yuhao would hardly become friends, and there was a high probability they would even be enemies. Therefore, there was no need for further interaction.

In a private teacher's office within the freshman teaching building, a beautiful female teacher, appearing to be around twenty-eight years old, sat behind her Office Desk with a look of joy, holding an opened envelope with a broken seal.

On the Sealing Wax of the seal were engraved four large characters: Bandle City.

The main body of the letter contained information about one person.

Name: Moyuan.

Martial Soul: Elemental Body Martial Soul · Golden Eyes

Age: Eleven Years Old

Soul Power Level: Level Thirty-Nine

Soul Ring Years: 689 years, 3099 years, 8300 years

Background: ...

Mu Jin, the Homeroom Teacher of Newborn Class Nine, read all of Moyuan's information word by word with eager eyes, a charming smile gracing her lips.

"Zhou Yi, Zhou Yi, not only do I have two of the four Soul Elders in my class among the freshmen, but just Moyuan alone is enough to make you unable to lift your head!"

As Mu Jin imagined the scene where she would soon triumphantly raise her head while Zhou Yi could only wear a gloomy expression and suppress her anger, a cheerful ringtone, distinct from the class bell, sounded.

This indicated that only ten minutes remained until the start of the first class of the day.

Upon hearing the bell, Mu Jin immediately put Moyuan's letter away, locked it in her drawer, and then, holding her prepared lesson plans, pushed open the office door and headed towards the classroom of Newborn Class Nine.

All the way, Mu Jin maintained a faint smile on her face. Her delicate feet tapped on the crystal high heels she wore, the crisp sound of her heels hitting the floor echoing through the hallway.

Other teachers who passed by Mu Jin, seeing her demeanor, guessed that her class likely had many geniuses and offered congratulations with smiles.

Compared to Zhou Yi, who always had a cold expression, an unlikable Personality, and acted recklessly by relying on her Background, the young and beautiful Mu Jin was undoubtedly more popular.

Meanwhile, five minutes before the class bell rang, Moyuan and Bai Yi, having finished their breakfast, arrived in front of the Class Nine classroom.

At this moment, almost all the students were present in the classroom except for the two of them. At a glance, there were probably over a hundred people seated, and a majority of them were beautiful and lovely female students.

When Bai Yi walked into the classroom, the students who heard the commotion turned their eyes to look. Upon seeing Bai Yi with his silver hair and handsome appearance, many female students immediately started whispering to each other.

Clearly, his good looks had won their favor, while the other male students looked at Bai Yi with ill intent, scrutinizing him from head to toe.

But as the saying goes, behind a handsome face, there is often an even more handsome face.

Taking in all the changes in the classroom, Bai Yi curled his lips. He knew that the face of Moyuan, who was standing behind him, Fortunately, he had walked in first. Otherwise, if they had seen Moyuan first, no one would have paid attention to him when he entered.

Thinking this, Bai Yi shifted his steps and moved aside, revealing Moyuan behind him.

When everyone saw Moyuan's full appearance, the entire classroom instantly erupted. Almost all the female students started chatting animatedly with their companions.

From time to time, female students cast kind and gentle glances at Moyuan, while the male students who had been scrutinizing Bai Yi immediately fell silent.

The noble aura emanating from Moyuan, brought about by his Dragon Blood, combined with his perfect, handsome, and eerie face – let alone comparing, if someone's resolve was not firm, they might even fall for him.

Amidst the commotion, a crisp sound of footsteps stopped outside the classroom door, followed by a warm and smiling female voice.

"Alright students, quickly find your seats. There's no need to welcome me here."

Seeing Mu Jin holding her lesson plans, everyone immediately recognized her as their Homeroom Teacher. The commotion abruptly ceased, and they stopped their low conversations.

At this age, most youths still held a sense of reverence for the teaching profession.
