Douluo: Neighbor San Comes to My House to Use the Wi-Fi

Nan Xuan didn't say a word, yet everything was arranged for him so clearly. This feeling made him want to say, "It's really great. I don't have to deal with the hassle of my past life, where every single thing required a form, a stamp, and a department. Here, the teachers handle the arrangements themselves, and the students don't even have to run around."

Regarding the location of the logistics department, Nan Xuan found it very user-friendly, right across from the registration office. This forced him to complain about those stories where people can't find a certain place in a cafeteria or on the road, only to accidentally run into the heroine or hero and get entangled in a romance.

"It seems I don't have that chance. I'll just honestly collect my things and get ready for class tomorrow." After collecting his school uniform and daily necessities, Nan Xuan followed the list given by the teacher at the registration office and headed toward his dormitory.

"412, yep, this is it." Nan Xuan looked up to match the room number, confirmed it was correct, and walked inside.

"Hey, another roommate has arrived. You're the last one."

As soon as Nan Xuan entered, he heard a voice from the right. He looked up to see a boy who appeared to be his age, looking at him with a grin.

Nan Xuan returned a smile, then found his bed and began to unpack.

After spending about ten minutes getting settled, Nan Xuan looked at the boy again.

"Nan Xuan, 6 years old, from the Heaven Dou Empire, Martial Soul Wireless Router, level 10 Soul Scholar."

Seeing Nan Xuan introduce himself so suddenly and formally, the boy on the bed jumped down, extended his right hand, and said with a smile, "Chen Gao, 6 years old, from a village near Martial Soul City, Martial Soul is Soul-Eater Spear, level 8 Soul Scholar."

"You just said I was the last one to arrive, so what about the other two?" Nan Xuan looked at the lean boy and pointed to the empty beds.

"Oh, that. They came to check out the dorm first, then went to the logistics office to pick up their things. They should be back soon," Chen Gao said helplessly.

Nan Xuan shrugged, indicating he didn't quite get it.

"Oh, looks like our dorm is finally complete." A brown-haired boy pushed the door open, scanned the room, spotted Nan Xuan, and said with a smile.

"Yang Tian, can you stop blocking the doorway? That's really annoying."

A voice came from outside the door. Nan Xuan turned his head to look; the two looked very similar, so they were likely twins.

"Eh, don't be in such a rush. Let me get in first," the boy stuck in the doorway said nonchalantly.

The person behind him impatiently kicked him.

"Yang Fei, can you be a little gentler with your brother?" Yang Tian looked at his older brother and rubbed his backside, speechless.

"Oh, so now you remember he's your younger brother?" Yang Fei retorted sarcastically, stepped past him, and walked up to Nan Xuan.

"Hello, my name is Yang Fei, 6 years old, from the Heaven Dou Empire, Martial Soul is Silver Needle, current Soul Power is level 7."

"The one blocking the door is my brother, Yang Tian. Our Martial Souls are the same, and our Soul Power is the same, too."

Nan Xuan shook Yang Fei's hand and introduced himself once more.

After getting to know each other, everyone became much more familiar and began discussing their Innate Soul Power.

Chen Gao groomed his white hair and spoke first, "My Innate Soul Power was level 8, and now it's close to level 9."

"I'm level 6."

Yang Fei also reported his Innate Soul Power.

Yang Tian: "+1."

Nan Xuan said calmly, "Innate Full Soul Power."

"Damn."

"Is this the pressure that comes from a genius?"

"+1."

Chen Gao and the others looked at Nan Xuan's calm expression and felt quite uncomfortable, but they couldn't deny that he really had the talent.

"Forget about me. Chen Gao, with your level 8 Innate Soul Power, the three months right after awakening should have been the best time to increase your Soul Power. Why are you only close to level 9? Shouldn't you have reached level 9 already?" Hearing the level Chen Gao mentioned, Nan Xuan felt a bit strange.

"Yeah, we were all able to increase by a level. Why are you so slow?" Yang Fei looked at Chen Gao and asked with the same confusion.

Seeing three pairs of eyes fixed on him, Chen Gao said sheepishly, "Uh, I heard that the academies under Martial Soul Hall are quite strict, so I relaxed a bit during those few days. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance."

The three of them exchanged glances and gave Chen Gao a thumbs-up.

"Nan Xuan, everyone else's Martial Soul is either a spear, a blade, or some kind of beast. I really don't understand this 'Router' thing of yours," Yang Tian finally couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked.

"It's called a Wireless Router. As for its function, I haven't used it even once, so I don't know either." Nan Xuan indicated that he truly didn't know and couldn't explain it.

It was true; from the moment of his awakening until now, Nan Xuan hadn't used his Martial Soul because he didn't really know how.

Seeing that even Nan Xuan himself didn't know, they decided they would only find out after obtaining a Soul Ring in the future.

"Let's stop talking about this. School officially starts tomorrow. Don't you guys want to know who else is in our class?" Chen Gao said triumphantly.

"Who's in it?" Nan Xuan was quite interested in this, as he figured that based on talent-based grouping, she should be in this class too.

"I don't know about the others, but there's definitely someone big. I arrived early today and saw a girl with dark pink hair being followed by a Martial Soul Hall elder. That was an elder! Following behind a girl—I really don't know what kind of person gets that kind of treatment." Chen Gao looked envious, his eyes filled with the image of that girl.

"How do you know they were an elder?" Yang Tian asked.

"Shut up, you're embarrassing me. The elder had a badge on his chest; can't you see for yourself?" Yang Fei rolled his eyes at his brother and said helplessly.

Based on this description, Nan Xuan already knew who she was.

Sunlight shone through the window and hit Chen Gao's face.

"Hey, if you don't get up, we're going to be late. This is the first day of school, after all." Nan Xuan looked at Chen Gao, who was still lying down, and reminded him.

Chen Gao rubbed his eyes and sat up slowly.

"Then we'll head over first. We'll bring your breakfast to the classroom, so you can just head straight there later." Seeing that Chen Gao was up, Nan Xuan left the dormitory with the Yang brothers.

Inside the classroom.

As soon as Nan Xuan walked into the classroom, he spotted the figure he had been looking forward to seeing.

He noticed that no one was sitting around her, so he walked over naturally and sat down beside her.

The girl glanced at him, feeling quite strange about this boy who had suddenly sat next to her.

She had been in the classroom for quite a while, yet no one dared to sit near her. She knew that her martial soul caused an aura of slaughter to permeate the space around her.

But how did this boy dare to come over? Could it be that his martial soul allowed him to remain unaffected?

Filled with questions, the girl didn't speak up to ask, thinking to herself, Since he isn't afraid, why should I be? Hmph.

Nan Xuan sat quietly beside her with a smile on his lips, but internally he was shouting, It's a good thing my martial soul has a mental power amplification trait, otherwise I might have been affected by this aura. According to the original work, she should be cultivating the Death Spider Emperor right now, and she has already obtained her first soul ring.

The original work didn't mention her first three soul rings, but since Yu Xiaogang was able to interact with her back then, this issue must have been resolved by the third or fourth soul ring.

"Excuse me, thanks, thanks."

Nan Xuan watched a white-haired figure pass by him. Suddenly, the figure stopped, stood in the distance, and stared at Nan Xuan, too surprised to know what to say.

"You, you, how are you sitting there? You really are my big brother." Chen Gao looked at Nan Xuan sitting next to Bibi Dong, feeling extremely astonished.

However, before he had time to ask for details, the teacher walked in.

"Hello everyone, I am your homeroom teacher. My name is Keyes, you can call me Teacher Ke."

"Next, I will take attendance, and then various subject teachers will come to instruct you. Also, we will register who has reached level 10 soul power and needs to hunt soul beasts. You state the soul beast you have in mind, and the teacher will compare it against your martial soul. If it's suitable, the teacher will arrange the hunt for you."

Keyes was 26 years old, a level 43 Soul Ancestor. His golden hair was somewhat elegant, and his height of 180 centimeters matched his face quite well.

"Chen Gao."

"Hm? Ah, here." Chen Gao hadn't even reacted to being the first one called.

"Bibi Dong."

"Here." A light, airy voice rang out, making one feel as if they were hearing the song of a nightingale.

"Yang Fei..."

"Nan Xuan."

"Here." Nan Xuan gave a calm smile and answered casually.

Beside him, Bibi Dong silently read the name of this peculiar boy in her heart.

During the break, Chen Gao couldn't wait to gesture for Nan Xuan to come over for questioning.

Nan Xuan, with the soul of an adult, couldn't be bothered to explain, so he went straight to the office of Keyes.

"You must be Nan Xuan, right? Are you looking for me to register for a soul ring hunt?" Seeing Nan Xuan arrive, Keyes asked with a smile.

"Yes, Teacher. I plan to hunt a century-old soul beast for my first soul ring." Nan Xuan said slowly while looking at Keyes.

Hearing this, Keyes shook his head and chuckled: "Of course, for a genius like you, the first soul ring must be century-old. Do you have any soul beasts in mind?"

"The Ice Silkworm clan." Nan Xuan articulated clearly, though the teacher might have been a bit hard of hearing.

"What? Ice Silkworm? Can this thing even be used? You aren't joking with me, are you? Why don't we teachers arrange one for you instead?" Keyes was very surprised; after all, the Ice Silkworm clan was notoriously useless, just as trashy as Blue Silver Grass.

"Teacher, I am not joking. My first soul ring must be it, and it needs to be 430 years old." Nan Xuan said with a serious expression.

Looking into Nan Xuan's eyes, Keyes knew there was likely no room for change. However, he still wanted to ask for the reason: "Can you tell me your reason for choosing it as your soul ring?"

"I read in a book that the Ice Silkworm possesses mental attributes, and while my martial soul is attribute-less, I feel that it should also have characteristics related to the mind, which is why I want to use it as my first soul ring." Nan Xuan made up a reason to brush him off, though the logic was sound enough, given that his martial soul truly did have mental characteristics.

In the three months since awakening his martial soul, Nan Xuan had been researching it. Although he still didn't know how to use it, as long as the first soul ring was successful, his path forward would be clear.

In the original Douluo Dalu II, Huo Yuhao's first soul ring was this type of soul beast. Although the age difference was significant, the inherent attributes would still be there. His martial soul had the trait of Detection and Concealment, and combined with the Ice Silkworm, he might be able to obtain an unexpected soul skill.

"Alright then, if that's the case, then you don't need to go hunt for soul beasts." After pondering for a moment, Keyes said to Nan Xuan.
