Entering Notting

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

"It's time to enroll."

Holding the Martial Soul Hall Certificate issued by Su Yuntao, Bai Mu walked towards the west of the city.

Before long, the magnificent gate of Notting Academy, built from piles of rocks, appeared before him.

"Hey, hey, hey, kid, what are you doing?"

As soon as he approached, Bai Mu was ruthlessly stopped by the Gatekeeper Youth.

"Hello, big brother. I just awakened my spirit power a few days ago and came to register for enrollment!"

Bai Mu handed the Martial Soul Hall Certificate to the other party.

"Let me see, a mere Innate Soul Power level one... Level one is good!"

The gatekeeper impatiently opened the certificate. Upon seeing the few Copper Soul Coins tucked inside, his face instantly broke into a chrysanthemum-like friendly smile:

"Never mind the level of spirit power. Awakening spirit power means there's hope of becoming a Spirit Master, and your future is bright.

Although the registration time is a bit off, go to the Dean's Office on the first floor of the Main Teaching Building and look for Director Su to register."

"Okay."

Bai Mu smiled and nodded, entering the school directly.

It's easier to deal with King Yama than a petty official.

Knowing that this gatekeeper, who was on the "Path to Death," was difficult to deal with, he didn't intend to get entangled with him further.

After all, people like gatekeepers and dorm supervisors, if not to build a good relationship with them, at least there's no need to make enemies.

"When will I be able to 'Not Eating Beef' and 'Protect My Douluo Continent'?"

On the way, Bai Mu looked up at the blue sky at a 45-degree angle, full of longing for the future.

"Knock, knock, knock~"

"Come in!"

Arriving at the Dean's Office, he first knocked on the door and saw a teacher in her 60s sitting inside.

"Hello, Director. I'm a Work-Study Student who just awakened my spirit, here to register for enrollment!"

Bai Mu greeted her politely.

"You're here so early? New students don't enroll for a few more months."

Director Su frowned slightly.

At this time, most people would be on vacation in a few more days, and you're here to enroll?

"Mhm, I really want to improve!"

Bai Mu earnestly handed over the Martial Soul Hall Certificate.

"Hiss~ Alright then!"

Seeing the thirst for knowledge shining in Bai Mu's eyes, Director Su couldn't refuse and took the certificate to examine it.

"Martial Soul Mutation: Planarian (Zygarde), Innate Soul Power Level 1..."

After a short while, having completed the registration, Director Su said:

"Work-Study students are assigned to Dorm Seven. Later, Teacher Mo Hen will assign your work areas. You'll get 10 Copper Soul Coins daily. Get your bedding and head over directly."

"Thank you, Director."

Bai Mu bowed. After buying bedding outside, he went directly to Dorm Seven.

Dorm Seven had 50 beds and was generally messy and dilapidated. There weren't many people inside at the moment, as if they were all in class.

Finding an empty bed, he began to set it up.

Just as he finished preparing everything to go out and bask in the sun for meditation and cultivation, he saw a burly boy leading a few children in.

"Yo~ New Work-Study student?"

"Reporting at this time, how strange."

Amidst the noisy discussions of the children, Bai Mu took the initiative to greet them:

"Hello everyone, I'm the new Work-Study student Bai Mu, Martial Soul Zygarde, please guide me."

"My name is Wang Sheng, Martial Soul is War Tiger, Soul Power Level 9, the boss of Dorm Seven."

Wang Sheng said with burning eyes: "We have a rule in Dorm Seven: every newcomer has to fight the previous boss. The winner becomes the boss!"

Saying that, he prepared to assume a fighting stance.

Level 9... It seems Tang San should be enrolling next semester.

Bai Mu thought to himself, then shook his head and refused:

"Forget it, my Innate Soul Power is only Level 1, and I'm not good at fighting. I'll likely lose to you, it's not interesting."

Not to mention the 8-level difference in soul power between the two sides, the physical fitness gap brought about by the age difference alone was not small.

Zygarde currently had no combat power. Unless he used Invisibility for a sneak attack, it would be difficult to defeat Wang Sheng in a head-on battle.

But the ability of Invisibility was unnecessary to expose just to show off for a moment.

What's more, he had lived two lives. There was really no need to compete with a child.

"Only level 1?"

Wang Sheng frowned, but still said forcefully:

"No! Rules are rules. Newcomers have to fight. If we break the rules, how can we stick together?"

"Then let's fight outside."

Seeing the other party's relentless insistence, Bai Mu glanced at the clear sky outside and walked out first.

Since he had to fight, he would fight with all his might and treat it as accumulating experience!

"Hoo~"

Arriving outdoors and bathed in sunlight, Bai Mu clenched his fists, feeling his condition instantly return to its peak.

"Kid, can we start fighting?"

Behind him, Wang Sheng asked impatiently.

"Of course!"

As soon as the words fell, Bai Mu suddenly twisted his body and a Sett's Haymaker smashed into Wang Sheng's abdomen!

Bang!

With a muffled thud, Wang Sheng, before he could even react, instinctively clutched his stomach and staggered backward.

"Good kid! You actually ambushed me!"

Wang Sheng was furious. He spread his arms and lunged at Bai Mu with the momentum of Fierce Tiger Descends the Mountain.

Whoosh~

A strong wind whistled and hit him in the face.

Bai Mu, who had expected this, did not flinch. He slid to the right with his feet, dodging the attack, and lifted his foot to kick Wang Sheng's back popliteal fossa.

"Ah~!"

His left leg suddenly went soft, and Wang Sheng immediately lost control and lunged forward.

"Opportunity!"

Bai Mu's eyes lit up. He leaped forward, wrapping his arms around Wang Sheng, his legs clamping onto the other's thighs. He locked Wang Sheng's throat with his left hand, his right hand gripping his left...

Rear Naked Choke!

"Ugh~ ugh..."

Wang Sheng's eyes widened, his mind instantly going blank as a terrifying sense of suffocation flooded his consciousness.

It had to be known that the Rear Naked Choke, as a finishing move in combat, could subdue even a strong man when locked in by a girl.

Therefore, even though Wang Sheng attempted to use Martial Soul Avatar at this moment, he had no room to maneuver and could only struggle feebly in a death throe.

Just as he was about to lose consciousness, Bai Mu suddenly released his grip, allowing Wang Sheng to regain his mobility.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"Does this mean I win?"

Looking at Wang Sheng, who was sprawled on the ground, tears streaming down his face as he coughed and gasped for air, Bai Mu asked with a smile.

"You... you won..."

Wang Sheng's body trembled, a flicker of fear in his eyes.

Just now, he felt as if he had seen his great-grandmother waving at him.

"Holy crap, amazing!"

"Boss Wang Sheng was taken down in one move?"

"What a powerful Self-Created Soul Skill!"

The children watching from the sidelines were stunned.

They were told that the newcomer would be taught a lesson, but their boss ended up being beaten down instead?

Although Bai Mu had the element of surprise, as the boss of Dorm Seven, Wang Sheng was not weak. Even if all of them attacked together, they might not be Wang Sheng's match.

"You... you said you weren't good at fighting?"

After recovering slightly, Wang Sheng felt deeply deceived.

"I really am not good at fighting..."

Bai Mu appeared very innocent.

In his past life, he was a law-abiding young man. Fighting? He didn't fight!

However, to avoid being bullied on campus, he had risked his life a few times.

As for the effect, his good classmate, who had been hospitalized for two weeks, spoke to him kindly every time.

"I believe you."

Though he said that, Wang Sheng had a look of disbelief. He said, "A bet is a bet. From now on, you're the boss of Dorm Seven."

"No! I only know that one move. You should continue being the boss."

Bai Mu decisively refused.

Although he knew other unique skills like Monkey Scooping the Moon, Two Dragons Playing with a Pearl, and Iron Mountain Lean, his soul power was only level 1. How could he be a boss?

As long as Wang Sheng activated his Martial Soul Avatar in advance, he basically couldn't win.

Not to mention, he would have to face Tang Shenwang and his sword sheath later.

"That makes sense..."

Wang Sheng expressed understanding and prepared to privately ask for pointers on that move again.

"Let's spar again. A normal spar, giving you a chance to beat me up."

Bai Mu looked up at the sun and beckoned with his hand.

Wang Sheng: "Really?"

Bai Mu: "Really!"

"Fight!"

The two shouted and started fighting again.

This time, without any sneak attacks, Bai Mu quickly fell into a disadvantage and was one-sidedly beaten by Wang Sheng.

"Take this punch!"

One minute later, Wang Sheng was full of fighting spirit.

"Fierce Tiger Descends the Mountain! Vicious Tiger Pounces on Prey!"

Two minutes later, Wang Sheng was radiant.

"Hoo~ You guy, you have good stamina."

Three minutes later, Wang Sheng was slightly out of breath.

"Holy crap! Aren't you tired?"

Five minutes later, Wang Sheng realized something was wrong.

"I... I'm impressed... Amazing!"

Ten minutes later, Wang Sheng collapsed on the ground like a starfish, his eyes vacant as he gazed up at the blue sky.

This guy was cheating, he had infinite stamina!

"That's it? Nothing special!"

Bai Mu sneered, his face bruised and swollen.

He then flashed a friendly smile at the others.

"This is a rare opportunity, why don't we all spar together!"

"Uh..."

The few who had witnessed the entire scene instinctively took a step back.
