Inside Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong leaned against her throne.
She closed her eyes with difficulty.
She had to admit it.
Every word A-Qing said had struck right at the heart of the matter.
Yu Xiaogang's theories did indeed contain many questionable points.
And his strength truly did not live up to the title of "Grandmaster."
Back then, she had blindly admired his talent.
But now that she thought about it calmly.
Those so-called "talents" truly seemed unable to withstand scrutiny.
A deep sense of helplessness welled up within her.
She realized that she could not find a single reason to refute him.
This little fellow from another world was like a sharp blade.
Mercilessly cutting open the reality she had refused to face.
At Blue Tyrant Academy's Training Ground.
Liu Erlong's fury had long since vanished without a trace.
In its place were profound disappointment and confusion.
She had always believed in Xiao Gang's talent.
She had believed that his theories were correct.
Yet Lin Qingmo's words had planted the slightest hint of doubt in her mind.
And even that sliver of doubt was fatal to her.
Yes... Xiao Gang clearly had the best resources, so why had he never broken through Level 30?
His theories sounded perfectly reasonable, yet he himself could not achieve them.
Wasn't that the greatest irony?
She recalled every little moment she had shared with Xiao Gang.
She recalled the effort he had put into researching Soul Master theories.
She recalled the helplessness and unwillingness he occasionally revealed.
Could it all really have been as Lin Qingmo said... nothing more than a deception?
Liu Erlong's eyes dimmed.
The Spirit Rings beneath her feet gradually faded away as well.
She lowered her head and stared at the Chat Group before her.
She remained silent for a long time.
At Notting Academy.
Xiao Wu held the carrot she had just picked up.
She stared blankly at the heated argument in the Chat Group.
"Yu Xiaogang? Grandmaster?"
She seemed to have some impression of him.
He had been mentioned during the entrance exam.
But why did this "Daddy Douluo" speak of him so poorly?
And what was all this about two-timing and plagiarizing theories? It sounded so complicated...
Green Green Grass, who had just joined the Chat Group, had not said a word from beginning to end.
Lin Qingmo waited for quite a while.
When he saw no response from the Group Members.
He assumed that he had convinced them.
And decided to ease the atmosphere.
``` [Daddy Douluo]: All right, all right. We're all one big loving family here, so there's no need to waste time arguing over that guy.
[Daddy Douluo]: Let's stop talking about him and continue with what's happening on my end.
[Daddy Douluo]: I observed him just now. Little Scumbag's killing intent is almost impossible to hide now. The Guard must have pushed him too far.
[Daddy Douluo]: But it's understandable. He is the future God King Tang, after all. His temper definitely won't be good.
[Daddy Douluo]: I'm wondering if I should stay farther away from him from now on.
[Daddy Douluo]: That guy has a Title Douluo father protecting him. He hasn't shown himself yet, but there's no telling if he's watching nearby.
[Daddy Douluo]: A Title Douluo... that's the pinnacle of combat power on Douluo Continent. If he gets unhappy, he could crush a six-year-old brat like me to death. That's terrifying!
"His father is a Title Douluo?!"
Xiao Wu's eyes widened round when she saw that line.
"Thud!"
The carrot in her mouth fell to the ground again.
When she looked toward Tang San at the Academy entrance once more, her eyes were filled with fear.
Tang San's father was a Title Douluo?!
Xiao Wu shuddered all over in fright.
She instinctively took two steps back.
Inside Spirit Hall.
When Bibi Dong saw the words "Title Douluo father."
She abruptly opened her eyes.
A trace of vigilance flashed through her Purple Eyes.
Tang San's father was a Title Douluo?
At Blue Tyrant Academy.
Liu Erlong was also startled by this sudden news.
"The son of a Title Douluo?"
"This Tang San actually has such a background?"
Could the God King Tang Daddy Douluo spoke of truly have a promising future?
Lin Qingmo's words once again stirred up a storm in the Chat Group.
On a tree-lined path at Notting Academy.
Lin Qingmo strolled along at an unhurried pace.
The iconic scene of Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang stepping in to save Tang San kept replaying in his mind.
He could not help curling his lip.
If he had not just exposed all of that guy's dirty laundry in the group.
He might really have been intimidated by that so-called "Grandmaster" air of his.
After asking around, he found the Work-Study Student Dormitory.
He pushed open the creaking wooden door.
A smell of mildew mixed with sweat rushed into his face.
The dormitory was not large.
Several battered wooden beds stood against the walls.
A small patch of open space was left in the middle.
Several half-grown children were gathered there.
At their head stood a tall, sturdy boy with a defiant gaze.
"New here?"
When he saw Lin Qingmo enter.
The sturdy boy raised an eyebrow.
"My name is Wang Sheng. Do you know the rules?"
His tone carried a hint of provocation.
"This place needs a boss. Beat me, and you'll be the new boss!"
Lin Qingmo blinked.
He looked Wang Sheng up and down.
Then he lowered his head and looked at his own six-year-old body.
His Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul only had Level Four Innate Soul Power.
Fight?
Fight his ass!
He was a "wisdom-based" Transmigrator from Earth. He knew his own limits very well.
"Of course, of course!"
Lin Qingmo immediately flashed a bright smile.
He waved his hands quickly.
"My name is Lin Qingmo. I surrender!"
"???"
Wang Sheng and the surrounding Work-Study Students were all stunned.
They had seen arrogant new students, and they had seen new students unwilling to admit defeat.
But they had never seen anyone surrender so cleanly and decisively!
That move completely short-circuited their brains.
Wang Sheng stood there in a daze for a long while.
Before finally scratching his head.
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"All right, then. Since you surrendered, you can stay here."
He pointed to the side.
"There's still an empty bed over there."
Lin Qingmo quickly thanked him.
Then hurried over to the empty bed.
He tossed his little cloth bundle onto it.
Not long after he sat down.
The dormitory door was pushed open again.
A girl with a high ponytail and a pink dress walked in.
Her skin was fair, and her features were delicate.
Especially those large eyes of hers, lively and adorable.
It was Xiao Wu herself!
With such distinctive traits, Lin Qingmo recognized her at a glance.
He could not help muttering inwardly, She's here, she's here. The original plot is about to begin!
He had thought that Tang San and Xiao Wu's first meeting was about to unfold.
But what made his jaw drop was.
After Xiao Wu entered the dormitory.
She was not as energetic as in the original story, looking fearless and unafraid of anything.
Instead, her gaze darted about uneasily.
Her body was trembling slightly as well.
She looked timid and frightened.
Her mental state did not seem very good either.
As though she had been badly scared by something.
When Wang Sheng saw Xiao Wu.
His eyes lit up.
He once again struck the same pose as before.
"New girl, same rules. If you want to be the boss, you have to beat me!"
Lin Qingmo was waiting to see Xiao Wu display her great prowess.
But then he saw Xiao Wu merely say blankly, "I surrender."
"What?"
Lin Qingmo's jaw nearly hit the floor.
This script was wrong!
Why had the Rogue Rabbit surrendered?
Wang Sheng was dumbfounded too.
What was going on today?
Two new students in a row had turned out to be such cowards.
He looked Xiao Wu up and down.
Seeing that she truly had no fighting spirit and was also a girl, he did not make things difficult for her.
He pointed at the bed beside Lin Qingmo's.
"Then you can stay there."
Xiao Wu silently carried her little bundle to the bed beside Lin Qingmo's and sat down.
She sat perfectly straight.
Her hands rested on her knees.
From time to time, her gaze flicked toward Lin Qingmo.
She looked as though she wanted to speak but hesitated.
Lin Qingmo was getting the creeps from her staring.
He was puzzled.
What's going on with Xiao Wu?
Something was wrong!
Nine parts out of ten, something was definitely wrong!
How could he know that Xiao Wu's heart was churning like a storm right now?
Ever since she had seen Lin Qingmo say in the group that Tang San had a Title Douluo father, she had been restless.
To soul beasts from the Star Dou Great Forest, the deterrence of a Title Douluo was a fear carved into their bones.
Just now, at the dormitory entrance,
when she saw Tang San walking with the Grandmaster, she had been too frightened to approach.
Now that she had moved into the Work-Study Student Dormitory,
she had ended up right beside Lin Qingmo, someone "in the know."
She felt both afraid and curious.
She wanted to ask for clarification.
But she did not dare speak directly.
She was afraid of exposing her identity.
