In Dorm Seven.
Xiao Wu had already tidied her hair. She was now eating the food Xiao Feng had brought back from the cafeteria, while Tang San silently ate his own portion, looking dazed as if lost in thought.
"Xiao Feng, are you and Tang San brothers?" Xiao Wu asked in a muffled voice.
Xiao Feng gave a faint smile. "Swallow your food before you talk. And no, Xiao Sanzi and I aren't brothers. We're from the same village and have known each other since we were kids, but I'm a bit older, so he calls me 'big brother.'"
Hearing Xiao Feng's words, Xiao Wu showed an expression of understanding. She had thought Xiao Feng and Tang San were actually brothers.
"By the way, I plan to take Xiao San to the Spirit Beast Forest this afternoon to hunt for a spirit ring. Do you want to come along?" Although Xiao Feng knew Xiao Wu wouldn't go, he felt it necessary to ask.
At the mention of going out to play, Xiao Wu was initially excited, but as soon as she heard it was the Spirit Beast Forest, her face immediately fell.
"I'm not going. You two go ahead."
"Alright."
After finishing his meal, Xiao Feng wiped his mouth and looked at Tang San beside him. "Xiao San, pack up. We'll head out soon and go to the Spirit Beast Forest to hunt spirit beasts and obtain a spirit ring."
Xiao Feng's voice snapped Tang San back to reality, and he quickly responded, "Okay, Xiao Feng-ge."
Then, Xiao Feng looked at Xiao Wu, who was still eating, and said, "I'll leave some snacks for you. If we're lucky, we should be back tomorrow evening. If not, we'll return later. For the next day or two, you'll have to sleep alone."
Xiao Feng took out dozens of carrots from his Space Necklace and placed them on the bedside table. Then he requested fifty Gold Soul Coins from the system, handed them to Xiao Wu, and told her to spend them sparingly.
When Xiao Wu asked why he was so good to her, Xiao Feng laughed. "I don't want to come back and find a little rabbit starved to death. If you starve, who's going to warm my bed?"
These words reminded Xiao Wu of what had happened last night, and her face flushed red again. She pouted angrily and muttered, "Who... who said I'd warm your bed? Pfft~"
In response, Xiao Feng simply reached out, ruffled Xiao Wu's hair, and smiled gently.
"Alright, we're off."
Looking at Tang San, who had already packed a simple bag, Xiao Feng said goodbye to Xiao Wu and left Dorm Seven. Wang Sheng and the others in Dorm Seven watched them leave with envy. They were still only at level seven or eight as Spirit Masters, while Xiao Feng and Tang San were already preparing to obtain their first spirit ring.
The gap between people... sigh~~
After leaving Dorm Seven, the two made their way to the entrance of Nuoding Academy.
"Xiao Feng-ge, are we really going to the Spirit Beast Forest just the two of us? Isn't that a bit overconfident?" Tang San had some understanding of the Spirit Beast Forest and naturally knew what kind of place it was.
But Xiao Feng just smiled and said, "Don't worry. With our strength, it's more than enough. A mere hundred-year or thousand-year spirit beast is no match for me."
Of course, when Xiao Feng said "thousand-year spirit beast," he meant one around one to two thousand years old. Anything older, and he'd probably end up getting ground into the dirt.
A few seconds later, an extremely luxurious carriage approached from a distance. Xiao Feng looked at it and said, "Let's go."
Tang San: "???"
The carriage pulled up, and an old man who looked to be in his forties or fifties said to Xiao Feng, "Young Master Xiao Feng, please get in."
With that, he personally opened the carriage door for Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng didn't stand on ceremony and directly boarded the carriage, then poked his head out and called to the stunned Tang San, "What are you standing there for? Get on."
"Oh, oh." Still not fully recovered, Tang San got on the carriage in a daze. Looking at the luxurious interior, he fell silent. It was only then that he remembered Xiao Feng was also the Young Sect Leader of the God Nine Sect. And what was he? Just the son of a mere Title Douluo.
Fortunately, Tang Hao didn't know what Tang San was thinking, or he'd have pressed him to the ground and said, "What's the matter? Is it shameful for you that your father is a ninety-sixth-level Title Douluo?"
(Tang San: You got beaten up and pinned to the ground.) (Tang Hao: Then should I leave?)
After the carriage left, two people appeared at the entrance of Nuoding Academy. They were the city lord of Nuoding City and his son, Xiao Chen.
"Son, thank goodness you stopped me from making a move on him yesterday. If I had, you probably wouldn't be seeing your father anymore."
Xiao Chen looked at his father, also filled with lingering fear. Fortunately, he had strongly dissuaded his father yesterday, or his father's days would have been numbered.
"Not to mention that extremely luxurious carriage, even that coachman—I couldn't see through his cultivation. And I'm a forty-seventh-level Spirit Ancestor. That carriage gave me an extremely dangerous feeling. Also, did you hear what the coachman called him?"
Xiao Chen nodded seriously.
"Young Sect Leader. I heard it."
Xiao Chen's father shook his head. "From now on, keep a low profile. A force like that is not something we can afford to provoke."
"I understand, Father."
But neither of them knew that all of this was arranged by the system. The carriage was created by the system, and the coachman, whose spirit power was as high as level eighty-seven, was also created by the system.
[Host, how do you feel?]
Lying in the carriage, Xiao Feng silently gave the system a thumbs up. "Truly my little sweetheart system. The best."
[Hehe, of course.]
The carriage arranged by the system was very fast. In just one afternoon, the two arrived at a small town before the Spirit Beast Forest, over four hundred kilometers away.
"Young Master, I'll only send you this far," the coachman said respectfully from the front.
"Alright, we'll stop here."
Tang San, who had withdrawn from his cultivation state, followed Xiao Feng out of the carriage. After saying goodbye to the coachman, the coachman drove the carriage and disappeared into the distance.
(Coachman: Who would have thought that I, an eighty-seventh-level Spirit Douluo, would just be a tool for transportation?) (Horse: Stop complaining. What about me?) (Coachman: ...)
Looking at the small town ahead, Xiao Feng revealed an excited expression. This was his first time setting foot in territory belonging to Spirit Masters. Although it was just a tiny town, it still made Xiao Feng very excited, and Tang San was in much the same state.
As soon as the two entered the town, they were infected by its clamor.
The town was bustling with noise and people coming and going. There were all kinds of people dressed differently, both men and women. Some were tall and sturdy, others short and thin. The one thing they all had in common was the faint fluctuation of spirit power emanating from their bodies.
That's right, they were all Spirit Masters!
Tang San and Xiao Feng walked curiously through the town, while the people around them looked at them with curiosity and confusion, even a hint of intrigue. After all, a pair of children appearing here without an adult accompanying them was a very rare sight.
Although most people were merely curious, there were also quite a few with malicious intent. In the shadows, someone had already set their sights on Xiao Feng and Tang San.
Meanwhile, just as Xiao Feng and Tang San stepped into the town, a seductive-looking man arrived at Nuoding City. Behind him were three black-robed figures. The group of four entered Nuoding City directly, and their destination was the Spirit Hall of Nuoding City.
That's right, this man was none other than Yue Guan, who had come to recruit Xiao Feng!
