Before long, Su Ming arrived at the dormitory assigned to him by Nuoding AcademySeventh Dormitory!

Seventh Dormitory was for Work-Study Students. Given Su Ming's current finances, he could probably have spent some money to ask the academy for a private room.

But Su Ming did not do so. First, barring any surprises, Xiao Wu would still be assigned to Seventh Dormitory. The other reason, of course, was Tang San.

He and Tang San were both from Holy Spirit Village, so it made no sense for him to have that much money. If he moved into a private dormitory, Tang San would definitely grow suspicious.

Tang San would not only wonder where his money had come from, but also think about why someone as wealthy as him had taken a Work-Study Student slot.

Su Ming did not want to clash with Tang San just yet. It was not because he feared Tang San's Hidden Weapons; after all, Tang San's Hidden Weapons were still rather rudimentary, and Su Ming could evade them with his current strength, or even kill Tang San in return.

What he truly feared was Tang Hao, lurking in the shadows. He did not yet have the strength to contend with a Titled Douluo. Tang Hao only needed to release Titled Douluo-level pressure to render him completely unable to move.

For now, his priority was still writing his diary to obtain daily rewards. Of course, daily Soul Power cultivation and Wood Style practice were indispensable as well. He would not truly get carried away just because he had a system.

With the system's support and his own hard work, he would surely be able to increase his strength in a short time. After all, he had no idea when he might clash with Tang San in the future, so he needed to be fully prepared!

And, most importantly, he did not want Xiao Wu and Tang San sleeping in the same bed. They would be doing that for six whole years!

Since he had transmigrated into the Douluo world, those beauties had nothing to do with Tang San anymore.

Xiao Wu was actually quite easy to win over. Although she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, she had grown up in the core region of the Star Dou Great Forest. With the protection of her mother, Da Ming, and Er Ming, Xiao Wu was actually quite innocent.

The door to Seventh Dormitory opened.

The moment Su Ming stepped inside, he immediately drew the attention of everyone else in Seventh Dormitory.

Everyone froze for a moment. Then, someone in Seventh Dormitory stood up and said, "You must be this year's Work-Study Student. Then let's have a fight!"

Su Ming guessed that the person before him was Wang Sheng, but he still smiled and politely asked, "Since this is our first meeting, let me introduce myself. My name is Su Ming. May I ask who you are? And why do we have to fight?"

Seeing how polite Su Ming was, Wang Sheng replied, "My name is Wang Sheng. I'm currently the boss of Seventh Dormitory, the Dormitory Chief. We have a rule in our dormitory: every newcomer must fight the dormitory boss."

"If you win, you'll become the new boss of Seventh Dormitory. As for why we choose the Dormitory Chief this way, it's mainly because we're Work-Study Students. We need a strong boss to lead us Work-Study Students and protect ourselves among the noble students!"

Su Ming nodded in understanding. The leader of the noble students at this academy seemed to be a minor character named Xiao Chenyu, whose father was the Nuoding City Lord. In the original story, not long after Tang San enrolled, Seventh Dormitory came into conflict with them.

In the end, Tang San defeated Xiao Chenyu and had Xiao Wu become the new boss of Nuoding Academy.

After thinking it over, Su Ming agreed. Becoming the new Dormitory Chief of Seventh Dormitory had its benefits.

First, he would gain Wang Sheng and the others as underlings. Their strength was lacking, but they could still run errands for him. Second, if he became the boss of Seventh Dormitory, he would have a reason to beat Tang San up. He wanted to see just how strong Tang San currently was, so it was necessary to test him.

Besides, he had obtained Physical Technique Mastery from the system, but had not yet had a chance to properly put it into practice. He could use Wang Sheng to warm up first!

Wang Sheng: Thanks a lot!

The two immediately got ready. Su Ming said, "Come on. You attack first, or you won't get another chance!"

Wang Sheng snorted. "Arrogant!"

Then he charged at Su Ming, throwing a punch at Su Ming's stomach!

"Go, Boss!"

"Go!"

Everyone else in Seventh Dormitory cheered for Wang Sheng, hoping to teach this arrogant newcomer a lesson!

It was clear that Wang Sheng was quite popular among these Work-Study Students. Otherwise, they would not all be cheering for him.

But Su Ming thought to himself, What a pity. Your dormitory's boss is about to change!

Su Ming calmly sidestepped Wang Sheng's punch, grabbed his arm, bent slightly at the waist, and exerted force, directly throwing Wang Sheng over his shoulder!

Bang!

Wang Sheng slammed heavily into the floor.

"Cough, cough."

Su Ming helped Wang Sheng up and said, "I won."

Wang Sheng found Su Ming's skills unbelievable. Was this really a student who had just awakened his Martial Soul?

How could his physical fitness be even stronger than Wang Sheng's, who had awakened his Martial Soul years ago?

Wang Sheng thanked him, then held his chest with one hand. That shoulder throw had left him feeling rather uncomfortable.

Then Wang Sheng asked, "Su Ming, what is your Innate Soul Power, and what Martial Soul did you awaken? How is your physical fitness so strong?"

Wang Sheng had asked the question everyone was curious about.

When a Martial Soul awakened, it generally fed a bit of energy back into the Soul Master. While it was not much, the higher one's Innate Soul Power, the greater the benefits received. Among them, those who awakened Beast Martial Souls received the most feedback, which could improve their physical fitness.

There was nothing to hide, so Su Ming answered truthfully, "My Martial Soul is the Wood Element, and my Innate Soul Power is Level 7!"

This time, Wang Sheng and the others were stunned. Innate Soul Power Level 7—he was a genius! No wonder he was so strong!

Wang Sheng admitted defeat as well and said to the others, "From now on, Su Ming is the new boss of Seventh Dormitory. Greet the boss!"

Wang Sheng took the lead. "Hello, Boss!"

"Hello, Boss!"

"Hello, Boss!"

It was Su Ming's first time being treated as a boss. It would be impossible to say he felt nothing about it. Being the boss felt pretty good!

Then Su Ming made a promise to everyone. "Don't worry, everyone. As long as I'm here, I won't let those noble students bully you!"

Since he had become the boss of Seventh Dormitory, he had to take on the corresponding responsibility. In any case, he was not afraid of minor characters like Xiao Chenyu.

Xiao Chenyu was currently only a Level 11 Soul Master, and his Soul Ring was merely a ten-year one. Even without adding a Soul Ring yet, Su Ming would not fear him!

However, he needed to find time to test what level of Wood Style he could currently use, and whether his Soul Power and Spiritual Power could sustain it. He truly hoped the system would reward him with a cultivation method for Spiritual Power. Otherwise, increasing Spiritual Power was honestly rather difficult.

Su Ming could currently think of only two ways to increase Spiritual Power. One was to secretly use the Sharingan to copy Tang San's Purple Demon Eyes, using the thread of purple qi every morning to cultivate and elevate his spiritual realm.

The second method was to obtain a Head Soul Bone that enhanced Spiritual Power, but that was not very realistic for him right now.

PS: There will be another chapter later, so please don't rush me, everyone. I'm still writing. Still asking for everything~~
