At those words, the guard looked at Wang Feng with suspicion and furrowed his brow, but did as he was told. After finishing, the woman smiled and went inside. She was really small.

After lunch, Wang Feng went to the academy library, hoping to look up information on Soul Beasts.

Wang Feng said. After all, she was Tang San's wife... Xiao San even had a daughter with Xiao Wu. But to enter the forest, he needed a warrant issued by the Spirit Hall.

The little girl had fair cheeks flushed with healthy color. Her clothes were plain but neat, and her long hair was tied into a thick scorpion braid that fell to her hips. She was talking quietly with Tang San.

Su Yuntao stared at Wang Feng speechlessly. "But if you join the Spirit Hall, I'll give you a token and find someone to help you hunt a Soul Beast. How does that sound?"

Still, he didn't go to the Soul Hunting Forest. Instead, he went to the Spirit Hall.

Liu Long and Ling Feng pointed to the bed and chimed in.

The Spirit Hall in Notting City was naturally far more impressive than the one in Holy Soul Village!

"Little friend, this is the Spirit Hall. You can't just wander in."

The reason was simple.

Just then, a woman walked up and looked at Wang Feng in surprise.

She was tall and voluptuous, and quite pretty. She looked about the same age as Su Yuntao.

It wasn't that surprising. Children all had a strong competitive streak.

Grandmaster came to see Tang San once during the day, drawing plenty of curious glances from the work-study students in Dorm Seven.

Wang Feng shook his head.

For the rest of the day, Wang Feng stayed in the library, poring over all kinds of books without stopping to eat or sleep.

"This must be Xiao Wu, right?"

"Sure. Once you get a Spirit Ring, we can fight."

"I'm here to see Grandmaster Su Yuntao. Is he around? If he is, tell him that a kid named Wang Feng has come to see him."

"That's me."

The young man and Yu He both froze at his words.

Just thinking about it made Wang Feng cringe.

Even Tang San, a transmigrator with an adult man's soul inside him, still had a competitive streak.

So Wang Feng had no intention of trying to get close to Xiao Wu.

Wang Feng rubbed his stomach.

Tang San looked awkward.

"Brother Feng!"

Wang Feng repeated what he had just told the woman.

Before long, Su Yuntao came out and stared at Wang Feng with a strange look. "You really came, kid. Come in. What do you want?"

Xiao Wu said with a grin.

Tang San followed Grandmaster out of the academy. Wang Feng knew they were probably heading to the Soul Hunting Forest, four hundred li northeast of Notting City, where the empire kept Soul Beasts.

Losing to a girl would be pretty embarrassing.

"Tang San, you're taking Grandmaster as your teacher?"

"Not exactly." Wang Feng shook his head. "Mostly because you can't beat me."

He knew Xiao Wu's true form was a Soul Beast, a Soft Bone Rabbit.

There were plenty of pretty single girls on Douluo Continent. Wang Feng wasn't so desperate that he'd do something like that.

But Wang Feng didn't need to learn every detail. He only needed to know the kinds of Soul Beasts and their approximate ages.

"Some little runt like you wants to hunt Soul Beasts? You're probably looking for Su Yuntao to help you, right? Does he have time to help some little kid like you hunt Soul Beasts?"

But when Xiao Wu heard Tang San, she grew even more indignant.

"You haven't even fought me. How do you know?"

"Shut up!"

"..."

Wang Feng.

Wang Feng had no warrant, so he could only go to the Spirit Hall and ask Su Yuntao for one.

Wang Feng smiled.

He wanted to say that Brother Feng had even traded blows with Master Su, who was level twenty-six.

"I wondered who Si Si was talking about. So it's you, kid... I can't give you a token. Hunting Soul Beasts is too dangerous for you. Those few tricks of yours are nothing to a Soul Beast."

Xiao Wu didn't stand a chance.

"Then after lunch, I want to fight you."

Though he hadn't read much, and the records weren't very detailed, he might not understand the subject as thoroughly as Grandmaster or the other instructors.

"You're looking for Su Yuntao? What does a kid like you want with him?"

Once they'd agreed, the group headed to the dining hall and ate a fairly hearty lunch.

Tang San quickly added, "Xiao Wu, Brother Feng is really strong. He even—You really can't beat him."

"Yes, yes! We saved the best bed for our leader."

Tang San shot him a cold look. "If you say something like that again, I might actually beat you up!"

"Sounds like it's true?"

"Leader?"

Wang Feng made his way to the dining hall at an unhurried pace.

As luck would have it, he ran into Tang San at the entrance.

A guard stood by the door and spoke sternly.

Xiao Wu had a strong competitive streak.

"You're Brother Feng?"

The woman laughed aloud. "You're going to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt Soul Beasts?"

As Xiao San's future wife, Xiao Wu was someone Wang Feng honestly hadn't liked much in the original story.

"I don't want to fight you."

Wang Feng looked at the pretty, charming little girl and couldn't help sighing.

"Why?" Xiao Wu blinked, then huffed. "Are you afraid to fight a girl?"

Besides...

Wang Feng had just finished speaking.

"I need a token."

He liked older women.

"Let's eat."

"You said it!"

Xiao Wu's eyes lit up.

I have Innate Full Soul Power. Just wait until I get back...

The building had three floors.

"How did he do that?"

Grandmaster was probably taking Tang San to hunt a Soul Beast and get his first Spirit Ring.

It was a brown building, and a sword was engraved above the imposing entrance.

Wang Feng went out that day too.

The young man looked embarrassed and curious. "I don't know either."

Yu He looked at the young man.

Xiao Wu really did have a strong competitive streak.

"You're Brother Feng?"

The woman laughed. "You're going to the Soul Hunting Forest to hunt Soul Beasts?"

As someone who'd read and watched Douluo Continent, Wang Feng felt weird about trying to get close to Xiao Wu.

"I don't care! I'm a girl, and I've already challenged you, Brother Feng. You have to fight me!"

Xiao Wu looked at Wang Feng with wide, watery eyes. "Xiao San told me you're from the same village. I beat him, and he said there was someone even stronger than him—a guy called Brother Feng. That must be you!"

When he shouted, the little girl turned to look at Wang Feng too.

Xiao Chenyu and the others were no ordinary students. Their strength and status were nothing to sneeze at. If Wang Feng hadn't earned their respect, how could he have become their leader?

Seeing Wang Feng, Tang San smiled and waved.

She was especially fond of fighting when she was young, and often bullied Tang San.

The next day.
