Xiao Wu: It's Impossible That I Only Cared About Romance! This Is Absolutely Impossible!

With a puff, a stream of pale purple Soul Power surged from Yu Xiaogang's hand, and a strange pig-like creature appeared before Tang San!

Tang San's expression stiffened as he asked quietly, "Teacher, this is...?"

Yu Xiaogang wore a bitter expression as well. "This is my Martial Soul. I call him Luo Sanpao. Because my Martial Soul mutated, he does not possess me like normal Martial Souls do, but appears in physical form instead."

"My Innate Soul Power was only half a rank, and my Soul Power has remained stuck at Rank 29, unable to break through to Rank 30. So I can only study Martial Souls in theory."

Tang San nodded in shock. He had not expected his teacher's strength to truly be so low, and for his Martial Soul's form to be so peculiar!

No wonder Teacher was so obsessed with the theories of Martial Souls!

Then Tang San said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Teacher. I brought up something painful."

Yu Xiaogang laughed at himself. "It's fine. I'm used to it already. All right, enough of that. Let's go see which Soul Beasts are suitable for you!"

"Sanpao, lead the way!"

Nuoding Academy.

Early in the morning, Su Ming got up and found a quiet, secluded place to cultivate. He wanted to test the effects of the "Wood Scripture." If it truly compressed Soul Power, then perhaps his current Rank 10 Soul Power could be compressed further. In any case, he was not in a hurry to obtain his First Spirit Ring.

For the next few months, he would focus on cultivating the "Wood Scripture," tempering his body, and practicing a few low-level Wood Style techniques. It would also help conceal his abilities. After all, he had only been Rank 7 when he enrolled.

Then, following the circulation route of the "Wood Scripture" cultivation method, he began cultivating.

Half an hour later, Su Ming confirmed it. This cultivation method truly was compressing his Soul Power, because while cultivating, he could sense an indescribable feeling.

Normally, when Soul Masters reached the peak of a major realm, they could continue cultivating, but they could not actually feel any increase in their Soul Power. Only after obtaining a Soul Ring would they know.

But now, he could clearly feel his Soul Power constantly being compressed. The quality of his Soul Power was improving!

Su Ming did not grow arrogant or impatient. He cultivated there until noon, then went to find Xiao Wu and take her into the city for a meal. The food on the first floor of the school cafeteria probably was not very good.

Besides, he was still a Work-Study Student, so it would not be appropriate for him to go to the second floor.

When Xiao Wu saw that Su Ming wanted to take her out for a meal, of course she was willing.

Yesterday afternoon, a staff member from Nuoding Academy had explained to the three of them that the academy would assign suitable jobs to Work-Study Students each day. Once completed, they could receive ten Copper Soul Coins.

Xiao Wu had originally wanted to take on some tasks to earn money, since she did not have a single coin on her.

But after Su Ming learned of this, he said he could lend Xiao Wu some money. There was no need for her to waste time doing those jobs.

In the original work, Tang San had not really done much of this so-called Work-Study Student work either. After all, he had spent several days with Yu Xiaogang in the Soul Hunting Forest while obtaining his First Spirit Ring. Later, he registered as a Soul Master at Spirit Hall and could receive a subsidy of one Gold Soul Coin every month. He simply was not short of money, so naturally he did not need to do those jobs.

After Su Ming and Xiao Wu left Nuoding Academy, Su Ming knowingly asked, "Xiao Wu, you're a Soul Master now too. Why don't you go to Spirit Hall to collect your Soul Master subsidy?"

Seeing Su Ming's knowingly questioning expression, Xiao Wu could not help wanting to beat him up. Ahhh, Su Ming, just keep pretending. Once I master the Wind God Leg, I'll beat you up!

Then Xiao Wu snorted coldly. "Even if I died, I would never go to Spirit Hall to collect a subsidy!"

Su Ming continued, "Do you have a grudge against Spirit Hall?"

Xiao Wu gritted her teeth and nodded.

At that, Su Ming did not ask any further questions.

It was still necessary for him to ask. Soul Masters in this world could collect subsidies from Spirit Hall, and if Xiao Wu did not go, it would seem only natural for him to ask about it.

But he never could have imagined that Xiao Wu possessed a copy of his Diary, and was simply watching him perform all by himself.

Since Su Ming had nothing better to do, he simply began writing in his diary. A diary was meant to record the events of each day, after all.

Today, I cultivated the cultivation method rewarded by the system. It truly has the effect of compressing Soul Power, and its cultivation speed is not slow either. It suits me perfectly.

After cultivating, I took Xiao Wu out to eat. I even knowingly asked why she did not go to Spirit Hall to collect her Soul Master subsidy. Sure enough, Xiao Wu got angry. That was within my expectations. It would be strange if she were not angry!

After all, Xiao Wu's mother was killed by Bibi Dong and became Bibi Dong's Soul Ring.

When the women saw this, their expressions became strange. If Su Ming found out in the future that they actually possessed copies of his Diary, would he die of embarrassment? They were quietly watching him perform like this.

Still, Xiao Wu truly should be angry. After all, Bibi Dong had killed her mother. Yet they all felt that no one was truly right or wrong in this matter. It was mainly a matter of position. After all, the conflict between Soul Masters and Soul Beasts had been irreconcilable since ancient times!

That was simply how this world worked. Soul Masters had to hunt Soul Beasts and obtain Soul Rings before they could advance. Over time, Soul Masters and Soul Beasts had become mortal enemies!

At Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong looked at the Diary Su Ming had written, her heart filled with complicated emotions. No one knew what she was thinking.

However, there was one thing I found especially puzzling. In the original work, Xiao Wu should have been filled with hatred for Bibi Dong of Spirit Hall. After taking human form, shouldn't she have cultivated diligently and strived to reach the strength of a Titled Douluo as soon as possible?

But what did Xiao Wu do in the original work?

She spent six years sleeping with Tang San at Nuoding Academy, then became Tang San's younger sister. She even gradually developed different feelings for Tang San.

As a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, her Soul Power Level was still only Rank 29 after six years, the same as Tang San's. Although Tang San and Xiao Wu both had Innate Full Soul Power at Rank 10, Tang San was Rank 29 after six years because he could only reach Rank 29. But Xiao Wu was different!

As a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who had taken human form, Xiao Wu possessed an incredibly strong foundation. Before reaching the strength of a Titled Douluo, as long as she cultivated diligently, her speed would absolutely be much faster than Tang San's!

This could be seen from how the other members of the Shrek Seven Devils improved their talents after consuming immortal herbs, causing their Soul Power to rise several ranks at once. Xiao Wu did not consume immortal herbs, yet her cultivation speed afterward was not actually slower than the others'!

This showed that Xiao Wu had been slacking off in cultivation before. Was this really the Xiao Wu who wanted to avenge her mother? It felt as though Xiao Wu wanted to date Tang San and did not want revenge at all. It was not shown whatsoever!

How many people will still be reading after it goes premium? Some readers said I should mass-release chapters once it goes premium, but two chapters a day is already my limit lately. When August comes, I'll definitely find a time to mass-release some chapters~~

Some readers said Ah Rou was not killed by Bibi Dong, and that it was mentioned in the side stories, so I'll change it here.

I originally thought Ah Rou was killed by Bibi Dong. (I only read Douluo Daluo 1.)
