Roommate Wang Dong

With Du Weilun, the Dean of Studies of the Outer Court, personally guiding Huo Yuhao, his enrollment procedures went exceptionally smoothly.

Finally, Du Weilun escorted Huo Yuhao to a quaint white building, which was the dormitory for the new students of the Outer Court.

Du Weilun gave a few more instructions, and seeing Huo Yuhao calmly agree, he took his leave with mixed feelings.

Huo Yuhao stood in front of the dormitory building, his gaze sweeping over the unfamiliar surroundings.

Out of habitual vigilance in unfamiliar environments, he subtly activated his Spirit Detection, which was invisible and intangible.

However, just as his Divine Power swept over the area in front of the building, his steps faltered almost imperceptibly.

On one side of the dormitory building entrance, there is an old recliner.

Lying on the chair was an elderly man dressed in faded gray cloth, with white hair and beard, and a face full of wrinkles.

With his eyes closed and his chest rising and falling slightly, he looked like an ordinary old man dozing in the warm sun, completely out of place with the vibrant youthful energy around him.

Huo Yuhao had only glanced at it briefly and hadn't paid it any attention.

But at that moment, the information returned by the Spirit Detection gave him a sudden shock!

Within that seemingly withered and frail body lay a vast and unimaginably powerful energy, as immense as a dormant volcano!

The purity and condensation of that energy far surpassed that of Yan Shaozhe, whom he had met today.

Its imposing size and exquisite quality were such that, in his memory, only the Sky-Supporting Douluo Yun Ming, ten thousand years later, had given him a similar feeling.

This is... Limit Douluo?!

A glint flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes, and his mind raced, but he showed no sign of anything amiss on his face.

He glanced at the dormitory building as if it were nothing unusual, then strode off toward the dormitory entrance with a normal expression.

Just as Huo Yuhao's figure disappeared at the entrance of the dormitory building... the Gray-robed Elder on the recliner slowly opened his eyes.

A sharp, piercing glint flashed in those seemingly cloudy eyes.

The old man's aged gaze thoughtfully drifted towards the stairwell where Huo Yuhao had disappeared. His lips moved slightly as he murmured something in a voice only he could hear.

"What an astonishing physical foundation! His blood and energy are as vigorous as a dragon, and his muscles and bones are as strong as iron."

"And that Divine Power... wow, incredible, truly incredible!"

"It seems... there's a real Little Monster among this year's freshmen."

Huo Yuhao's dormitory number was 108. He pushed open the slightly mottled wooden door, and a smoky air mixed with dust and the smell of old wood rushed towards him.

The dormitory's layout was so simple it was almost rudimentary, and everything looked dated, which seemed somewhat incongruous with the prestigious title of "the No. 1 Academy on the Mainland."

However, Huo Yuhao was not a pampered Young Master who had grown up in luxury, so he didn't have many requirements for his dormitory.

He walked straight to the window, pushed open the somewhat sluggish window, and let the fresh air in.

Then, a surge of powerful Divine Power erupted from between his eyebrows, sweeping evenly across every corner of the dormitory.

Wherever the Divine Power passed, the accumulated dust, cobwebs, and small debris seemed to be precisely gathered by invisible hands and "sent" out through the open window.

In just a few breaths, the entire dormitory was transformed.

After placing the prepared sheets and blankets on the bed, Huo Yuhao sat down, and the image of the old man outside resurfaced in his mind.

Based on the records I saw in the Spirit Pagoda's historical materials from ten thousand years later, if my judgment is correct, the old man on the recliner should be the current Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion, Dragon God Douluo — Mu En!

Unexpectedly, as soon as he enrolled in school, he encountered this legendary figure who stood at the pinnacle of the continent.

However, Huo Yuhao only pondered it briefly and was not greatly disturbed by it.

His gaze then fell on the still empty bed opposite him.

According to the records from ten thousand years later, his roommate should be his future wife Tang Wutong.

Of course, she should now disguise herself as a man and enter the academy under the alias Wang Dong.

But now his original fate has changed, and it's uncertain whether his roommate is still Wang Dong.

Huo Yuhao waited until noon, but no one came.

When he went to the cafeteria for lunch, the scene there once again reshaped his understanding of the Shrek Academy.

The large dining area was bustling with noise and filled with delicious aromas, yet there wasn't a single chair in sight!

All the trainees, holding their food trays, ate standing up.

He also inquired with the senior students, who said that the academy wanted the students to finish eating quickly so they could save time for cultivation.

Knowing this reason, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but feel speechless. How much time could be saved by cutting back on mealtimes?

The afternoon passed quickly, and after dinner, the sky outside gradually darkened. Huo Yuhao thought his roommate wouldn't be coming today.

However, not long after, the old wooden door of the dormitory made a slight scraping sound as it was pushed open from the outside.

A figure walked in, its back to the dim light of the corridor.

The newcomer was a young man, with a slightly slender build.

He closed the door behind him, turned around, and the Soul Guidance Lamp in the room illuminated his face.

Huo Yuhao's gaze also froze instantly.

It was an extremely delicate face, one that could even be described as "beautiful".

Her skin was fair and delicate, almost translucent, and her features were exquisite, like a meticulously sculpted work of art.

But what's most striking is his soft, short hair and his clear, bright eyes... both of which are an extremely rare pinkish-blue!

Huo Yuhao looked at the other person, his heart felt as if it had been gently tapped by something, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, followed by a surge of immense joy.

Light blue hair!

Pinkish-blue eyes!

If he remembered correctly, his future wife Tang Wutong, had pinkish-blue eyes and hair!

Without a doubt, despite their altered destinies, the two of them became roommates!

A surge of inexplicable excitement rose in Huo Yuhao's heart. What is this? This is what fate is!

Looking at the indescribable excitement on Huo Yuhao's face, and then meeting his bright eyes that seemed to hold the stars, Wang Dong felt his cheeks inexplicably burning.

The gaze was too direct, as if it carried a tangible warmth, making him feel uneasy.

My heart started racing uncontrollably, and a mix of shyness and slight anger welled up inside me.

Wang Dong subconsciously turned his head away, avoiding the overly "hot" gaze.

A hint of reproach flashed in her light blue eyes, and she deliberately raised her voice a few decibels. "Hey! You... you shouldn't look at me like that!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao immediately realized that his emotions had been displayed too obviously.

He quickly suppressed his almost overflowing excitement and composed himself.

He gave a friendly smile and said, "Hello, my name is Huo Yuhao, nice to meet you."

Wang Dong slightly raised his chin, his tone carrying that innate arrogance. "My name is Wang Dong."

He then cleared his throat and said with a rather serious expression, "Although we are roommates, there are a few rules you need to remember."

"First, you are not allowed to bring just anyone back to the dorm, especially random people!"

"Secondly, no one is allowed to be naked in the dormitory!"

"Third, you're not allowed to snore at night, it disturbs my rest!"

Fourth, don't disturb me when I'm doing things!

"Fifth, from now on, you will be responsible for the cleanliness of the dormitory's common areas, but..."

He emphasized his words: "Absolutely no touching my bed or personal belongings! Do you hear me?"

Huo Yuhao listened quietly, understanding the situation.

Knowing that the other person was a girl, he completely understood the first few rules, and even thought they were reasonable.

However, when he heard the other party almost "domineeringly" push all the cleaning work onto him, Huo Yuhao's bright black eyes narrowed almost imperceptibly.

In an instant, some of the things Aunt Leng had said to him flashed through his mind.

"Xiao Yuhao, sometimes you can't always give in to girls."

"Reasoning should be used when appropriate, and principles should be upheld when necessary."

"Especially on the first meeting, it's important to establish clear boundaries. If you're too 'docile,' you might get taken advantage of later."

Although Aunt Leng's words were somewhat sarcastic, Huo Yuhao felt they made a lot of sense.

Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao's smile remained unchanged. He looked at Wang Dong and said, "I completely agree with the first four points and will abide by them."

"However, this fifth point..."

"A dormitory is a place where two people live together, so cleaning should be the responsibility of both of them."
