Battle Against Xiao Wu

"Isn't it huge!"

"It's huge!"

Tang San stared at the Three-Bow Bed Crossbow before Lu Yi with an obsessed look on his face.

"If this thing fired, it could punch straight through a city gate. Believe it or not!"

Hearing Tang San's words, Lu Yi patted the Three-Bow Bed Crossbow and said proudly.

"Absolutely. An ordinary city gate wouldn't be able to stop an Armor-Piercing Arrow this big!"

Hearing Lu Yi, Tang San reached out and touched the Armor-Piercing Arrowhead, which was even larger than a spearhead, his expression full of certainty.

"That's why I'm saying the thing in your sleeve is useless. This is much more practical!" Lu Yi said, pointing at Tang San's left hand.

"They're different. Mine is easier to carry than a ballista, and its firing angle is more concealed!"

Tang San shook his head as he replied to Lu Yi.

"Fine, do whatever you want!"

Lu Yi had no answer for him. This guy's belief in the supremacy of Hidden Weapons had already been carved into his bones.

After showing off his enormous ballista to Tang San, Lu Yi returned to the dormitory with him.

"Hey, you lot! Yeah, you! Come move my bed for me!"

The moment Lu Yi and Tang San entered the dormitory, Xiao Wu's arrogant voice rang out beside them.

Lu Yi followed the sound and saw Xiao Wu directing Wang Sheng and the others to move her things.

"What's going on?"

Lu Yi frowned as he looked at Wang Sheng and the others being ordered around by Xiao Wu.

"Brother Yi, we lost to Sister Xiao Wu, so we became her lackeys!"

A rather introverted Work-Study Student beside him answered timidly.

"Didn't I say that rule was abolished?"

Lu Yi was slightly puzzled. Then he shot Wang Sheng a fierce glare. Damn it, this guy had actually treated his words like fart.

Seeing Lu Yi's look, Wang Sheng turned his head away awkwardly. The main reason for today's incident was that he had thought Xiao Wu was pretty, so he had wanted to use the old Seventh Dormitory rules to put her in her place. He had never expected the little girl to be so strong.

"Hey, are you the boss of this academy?"

At that moment, Xiao Wu, who had been standing nearby barking orders at Wang Sheng and the others, walked up to Lu Yi and asked provocatively.

"That's right. What, do you want to challenge me?"

Hearing that, Lu Yi no longer bothered reprimanding Wang Sheng. He looked down at Xiao Wu and asked.

"That's right! I challenge you! If I win, you'll acknowledge me as your boss and call me Sister Xiao Wu!"

Facing Lu Yi, who was a head taller than her, Xiao Wu raised her chin and spoke without backing down.

"And if you lose?"

Lu Yi asked calmly.

"If I lose... Sister Xiao Wu can't possibly lose!"

With that, Xiao Wu kicked at Lu Yi.

Bang!

Before Xiao Wu's foot could hit Lu Yi, Tang San, standing beside him, blocked it.

"That was a sneak attack. Even if you won, it wouldn't be an honorable victory!"

Tang San grabbed Xiao Wu's leg with one hand, a hint of anger on his face as he spoke.

This afternoon, his senior brother had kindly told this little girl about the dormitory's situation. Yet that very evening, she had come to challenge his senior brother and even launched a sneak attack before she had finished speaking. Tang San, whose sense of justice had not yet been led astray by this Hooligan Rabbit, was furious.

Seeing Tang San reach out and block Xiao Wu's attack for him, Lu Yi slowly dispersed the Waterfall gathered on his hand and looked at Tang San in surprise.

He had not expected Little San to stand up for him. This guy was pretty solid after all.

"Then I'll beat you first before dealing with him!"

Xiao Wu shouted angrily. Then she intensified her attacks and charged at Tang San.

"Senior Brother, leave her to me!"

Tang San spoke to Lu Yi, signaling that he need not worry, before using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to attack Xiao Wu.

"Then be careful of the whip behind her. Someone trained enough to keep such a long whip must have a use for it!"

Hearing Tang San say that, Lu Yi could only abandon the thought of teaming up with Tang San to beat this hundred-thousand-year-old Hooligan Rabbit and instead warned him.

Tang San was too busy dealing with Xiao Wu to respond, but he paid more attention to the Scorpion Tail Whip behind her.

However, despite being on guard beforehand, Tang San was ultimately caught around the arm by Xiao Wu's Scorpion Tail Whip. She then used her soft skill to circle behind him and fling him away.

Bang!

Lu Yi took a quick step forward and steadily caught Tang San just before he hit the ground.

"Sorry, Senior Brother. I lost!"

Tang San slowly stood up, looking apologetically at Lu Yi, who had caught him.

"It's fine. Victory and defeat are common in battle. You lost this time because you lack practical combat experience. Work on correcting that."

Lu Yi patted Tang San on the shoulder as he spoke.

"Yes, Senior Brother!" Tang San answered, then stepped aside. Losing to a little girl in front of his senior brother was somewhat hard on his pride.

"Now you've seen how amazing Sister Xiao Wu is, right? Hey, you, you're next!"

Seeing Tang San silently retreat to the side, Xiao Wu proudly raised her chin at Lu Yi.

"Lu Yi. Martial Soul: Magikarp. Level fifteen, one-ring Battle Soul Master."

Lu Yi slowly released his Soul Ring beneath his feet as he looked at Xiao Wu, speaking in an even tone.

After absorbing his first Soul Ring, Lu Yi had gone to Spirit Hall to certify his Soul Power and registered at level fourteen. The additional level had been cultivated over the following three months.

"Xiao Wu. Martial Soul: Rabbit. Level twelve, one-ring Battle Soul Master!"

Hearing Lu Yi's words, Xiao Wu's expression grew more serious. She swiftly completed her Martial Soul Possession and released her hundred-year Soul Ring beneath her feet.

"So Xiao Wu is a Soul Master!" Seeing the Soul Ring beneath Xiao Wu's feet, Tang San, who had still been feeling somewhat embarrassed, immediately recovered. The reason he had lost to Xiao Wu was because she had already absorbed a Soul Ring.

Once he absorbed a Soul Ring as well, it was still uncertain who would win if he fought Xiao Wu again.

First Soul Skill, Waist Bow!

After completing her Martial Soul Possession, Xiao Wu did not hesitate in the slightest. She immediately activated her first Soul Skill and attacked Lu Yi.

Waterfall!

Facing Xiao Wu as she charged toward him, Lu Yi had no intention of going easy on her just because she was a girl. He used Waterfall with his right hand and punched Xiao Wu directly in the abdomen.

Agh!

Struck hard in the stomach by Lu Yi, Xiao Wu's body bent like a boiled red shrimp. She flew rapidly backward, crashed heavily to the ground, rolled her eyes, and fainted.

"Little San, carry her. Wang Sheng, take the two of them to the infirmary. Once Xiao Wu wakes up, talk to her about the bet!"

Lu Yi flicked the droplets from his hand as he looked at the unconscious Xiao Wu on the ground and spoke to Tang San and Wang Sheng.

"Understood, Senior Brother!"

Looking at the unconscious Xiao Wu, Tang San swallowed. He felt that his senior brother might have used a little too much force against a young girl, but when he remembered that his senior brother had hit her so hard to avenge him, Tang San felt warmth rise in his heart.

"Yes, Brother Yi!"

Wang Sheng hurriedly answered, then walked ahead of Tang San to lead the way.
