Feng Piaoling asked casually, "Which class are Dai Huabin and Wang Dong'er in?"
After a day of fermentation, the affairs between Feng Piaoling, Dai Huabin, and Wang Dong'er, as well as those between Feng Piaoling, Xu Sanshi, and Jiang Nannan, had already spread throughout the entire Outer Court.
His roommate naturally knew about it too. He secretly gave a thumbs-up to his "sugar daddy" and replied, "Dai Huabin and that Wang Dong'er are both in Class One."
Feng Piaoling nodded inwardly. He vaguely remembered that in the original work, Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu were in Class Five; it seemed that the mole had been busy.
When adjusting the dormitory for Dai Huabin, in order to leave no traces, he had also taken the liberty of changing his class, moving him into Old Lady Zhou's class.
Affected by this, it stood to reason that other classes must have undergone some subtle changes as well.
It was at this moment that a roar erupted outside the dormitory building: "Feng Piaoling, get out here and follow me to the Soul Fighting Arena for a battle!"
Feng Piaoling walked out the door and saw Dai Huabin standing alone under the dormitory building, shouting, his voice amplified by soul power to echo throughout the entire dormitory area.
Everyone heard it.
If this were just an ordinary freshman soul fight, even one between Soul Elders, it likely wouldn't have caused much of a stir.
But when it involved the old and new "Number One Beauties" and the "Number One Handsome Guy" of the Outer Court, things were different.
Yes, the old and new Number One Beauties—after Wang Dong'er revealed her true appearance, she had replaced Jiang Nannan as the Outer Court's top beauty.
Of course, as the former top beauty, Jiang Nannan's popularity remained high, not losing out to the new top beauty, Wang Dong'er.
As for the Outer Court's top handsome guy, that was naturally Feng Piaoling.
Originally, there was no such title, but ever since he displayed the strength of a Soul Elder upon enrollment—complete with a thousand-year second soul ring—combined with his outstanding appearance, he immediately became the object of pursuit for many female freshmen.
Most importantly, after being challenged by Xu Sanshi, he had said, "If you truly like someone, you shouldn't use her as a bet." This line had even won him a large number of female fans among the second to sixth-year students.
That was how the title of "Outer Court's Number One Handsome Guy" came to be.
And so, upon hearing that someone was challenging Feng Piaoling—the man who had fought for the former top beauty Jiang Nannan and had a duel with Xu Sanshi—and doing so for the sake of the new top beauty Wang Dong'er, almost everyone from freshmen down to fifth and sixth-year students rushed out of their dorms.
This naturally included Xu Sanshi, Bei Bei, Tang Ya, Jiang Nannan, Wang Dong'er, and others.
Among them, Jiang Nannan and Tang Ya shared the same dormitory.
Seeing someone challenging Feng Piaoling, Tang Ya hurriedly said, "Nannan, Nannan, hurry out! Someone is challenging your sweetheart."
Ever since meeting Feng Piaoling, Jiang Nannan had been staying in her room to cultivate. Hearing this, she ran out nervously, her face flushed red.
"Xiao Ya, you... don't misunderstand. My benefactor and I are not in that kind of relationship."
Tang Ya looked her up and down with lively eyes, choosing to see through the pretense without exposing it. "Yes, yes, you aren't in that kind of relationship..."
"But you'd better hurry up. I heard that the new girl, Wang Dong'er—the one who snatched your title as the Outer Court's top beauty—seems to have taken an interest in your benefactor after her disguise was exposed by our teacher. This second-generation heir of the White Tiger Duke family is only challenging him to pursue Wang Dong'er."
"That woman is using my benefactor!" After hearing Tang Ya's words, Jiang Nannan didn't know if she was feeling indignant for Feng Piaoling or simply jealous, but her face was full of anger.
"Yes, yes... but your little man isn't one to suffer a loss. Facing that heir's challenge, he directly set a Soul Ascension Pill as the bet. If that heir loses, he has to pay up a Soul Ascension Pill."
Speaking of this, Tang Ya suddenly changed her tone, looking at Jiang Nannan with a playful smile. "And if your little man loses, he has to drop out of school."
"How could that person be like that..." Jiang Nannan could no longer sit still.
"Alright, alright, I'm just teasing you. With your little man's strength, let alone that heir, even that guy Xu Sanshi wouldn't be his match. Just wait and see."
Tang Ya had witnessed Feng Piaoling's strength with her own eyes; with two casual sword strikes, he had slain a thousand-year Datura Snake that even Bei Bei found difficult to handle.
Although he had relied on a Level 4 Soul Tool, he himself had absorbed a five-thousand-year Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear soul ring. His strength was definitely not something a second-generation heir like Dai Huabin could compare to.
At the same time, in front of another dormitory, Wang Dong'er was standing with a girl who was not very tall, looking quite petite. While not exceptionally beautiful, she was clean, delicate, and very pleasant to look at.
"Wow, Dong'er, look! That Dai Huabin is actually challenging our Outer Court's number one handsome guy for your sake," the petite girl exclaimed.
"He's just a fickle, playboy heir. And Xiao Xiao, that Feng Piaoling is no 'number one handsome guy.' At best, he's just a black-bellied, annoying guy."
Wang Dong'er was dismissive of Dai Huabin, but felt a bit of teeth-grinding hatred toward Feng Piaoling. Other boys were head-over-heels for her once she revealed her true form, but only this guy dared to mock her with a gloating expression. If she weren't already a member of the Tang Sect, he would have already been on her list of people who deserved to die.
Similar scenes were playing out in many places.
Only Huo Yuhao did not leave his dormitory. At this moment, he had already made the bed for Dai Huabin and was diligently cultivating his Mysterious Heaven Skill in the room, having entered a state of meditation.
No one called him, and he remained unaware of everything happening outside.
Under the gaze of the crowd, Feng Piaoling walked out of the dormitory building and arrived before Dai Huabin. "Well? Is the Soul Ascension Pill ready?"
"Of course, but I'm afraid you won't have the fortune to enjoy it. Just wait to be expelled." Dai Huabin knew that Feng Piaoling wouldn't fight him without seeing the Soul Ascension Pill.
He took out the brocade box given to him by Dai Yueheng. Inside lay a jade-green pill the size of a walnut.
The surface of the pill shimmered with light; it was crystal clear and filled with life force. It was undoubtedly a Soul Ascension Pill.
As for the other one, he had already refined it on the spot.
That was why he had waited until evening to come and challenge Feng Piaoling.
Although his soul power was still at Level 31, he was very close to Level 32.
Combined with the White Tiger Martial Soul passed down through the Dai Family for generations, he was full of confidence in this battle.
Seeing that it was indeed a Soul Ascension Pill, Feng Piaoling nodded and slowly spat out two words: "Lead the way."
This condescending attitude made Dai Huabin even angrier. "Let's see how arrogant you can be in a moment!" He glared fiercely at Feng Piaoling, then turned and walked toward the Soul Fighting Arena.
