Eating, Sleeping, Beating Up Tang San!

Tang Hao ran madly for three or four miles, yet he still felt the shadow of death hanging over him.

That Sword Qi had felt utterly terrifying to him, even more terrifying than the aura of the Seven Kill Sword!

He ran all the way until he was more than ten miles away before finally relaxing completely.

After bending over and catching his breath, he turned to look in Nuoding Academy's direction.

What a pity.

He had been just about to get his hands on that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast.

Who would have thought that the powerful expert behind that other brat would appear?

A Peerless Douluo.

He had only heard of three people on the continent who had reached that level.

They were Qian Daoliu, the Grand Elder of Spirit Hall; Bo Saixi, the High Priestess of Sea God Island; and his ancestor, Tang Chen.

Could that woman be the High Priestess of Sea God Island?

But the more Tang Hao thought about it, the more something felt wrong. The Sea God Island High Priestess was hailed as invincible at sea. Since when had she cultivated Sword Qi?

And that Sword Qi was far more terrifying than even the Chen Family's Seven Kill Sword.

After thinking it over without reaching any conclusion, he could only set his doubts aside for now.

But what about that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast?

A thought flashed through Tang Hao's mind, and he suddenly recalled what he and Ah Yin had gone through back then.

"Let Tang San give it a try."

He had originally captured that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast for Tang San.

Since he had failed, he would leave it to Tang San to try instead.

Just as he and Ah Yin had done back then.

With that in mind, Tang Hao cautiously made his way back toward Nuoding Academy.

Meanwhile.

After driving Tang Hao away, Jiang Liang brought Xiao Wu back into the academy.

Xiao Wu had remained in a daze the entire time, clearly not yet recovered from being attacked.

Only after returning to the dormitory, to the safety of familiar surroundings, did she finally come back to her senses.

"Jiang Liang, that person just now..."

"Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Hao." Jiang Liang was brief and blunt, mercilessly exposing Tang Hao's identity.

Xiao Wu's face went pale, and panic instantly seized her.

To avoid being discovered by powerful human Soul Masters, she had hidden away in remote Nuoding City.

Hadn't they said the strongest Soul Masters here were only Soul Elders?

Why was there a Title Douluo here?!

"Jiang Liang, then we... what should we do?"

Jiang Liang made the bed and smiled. "What should we do? Nothing much. Since that Title Douluo discovered your identity, he definitely won't let this go."

"But don't worry. My older sister is incredibly powerful. Didn't you see how he ran off with his tail between his legs just now?"

Xiao Wu nodded faintly, relaxing a little.

"Your sister is amazing. She only lifted her hand, and that Title Douluo was scared into running away!"

"Of course. My sister is the strongest in the world!" Jiang Liang laughed heartily.

Sword Mother, who was within his Sea of Consciousness, heard those words and curled her lips into a happy smile.

Xiao Wu smiled and nodded, then turned to look out the window.

The pitch-black night sky made her feel stifled.

Even knowing that a mysterious expert was protecting her, she was still truly afraid that the Title Douluo would return.

"Jiang Liang, how about we go back to the Star Dou Forest?"

Having finished arranging the bedding, Jiang Liang looked up at Xiao Wu.

"I don't think there's any need to be afraid. Since that Title Douluo failed this time, he definitely won't make another move so easily next time."

"And aren't I here? If he shows up again, I'll make sure he never leaves!"

Xiao Wu was immediately overwhelmed with emotion.

She suddenly jumped onto Jiang Liang's back and rubbed her face against the hollow of his neck.

"Hehe, I knew you wouldn't abandon me!"

"Alright, alright, get down and go to sleep. Tomorrow, we're going to beat someone up. You'll definitely feel better afterward."

"Beat up who? That Grandmaster again?"

"Not Yu Xiaogang. The one who was hiding in the back today."

"Why beat him up?"

"Because he's that Title Douluo's son."

"Oh! Then let's beat him up. We have to beat him up!"

Xiao Wu gave a huff. That bastard had actually dared to covet her Soul Ring and Spirit Bone.

I can't beat a Title Douluo, but can't I beat Tang San?

The night passed without incident.

At dawn the next day, Jiang Liang had a nightmare. He dreamed that an octopus had grabbed him beneath the sea.

After jolting awake, he discovered that Xiao Wu had somehow rolled into his bedding.

And her hands and feet had been anything but well-behaved, clinging tightly around him.

No wonder he had had such a dream.

Jiang Liang helplessly shook his head. He could only pry Xiao Wu's limbs off himself before getting up to wash.

After changing into a brand-new academy uniform, he finally dragged Xiao Wu out of bed.

"Ha! Why are you waking me up so early?"

Xiao Wu rubbed her sleepy eyes, her voice full of resentment.

"You call this early? Don't forget what we're doing today."

As Jiang Liang spoke, he kicked her into the washroom without any courtesy.

"Hurry up, or Tang San might run off!"

Only then did Xiao Wu remember that they were going to beat Tang San up today to vent their anger!

She hurriedly shut the washroom door. Before long, she had changed into her new academy uniform and set off with Jiang Liang.

At that moment, in Dorm Seven.

Wang Sheng and the others had just gotten up and were preparing to wash.

The moment Wang Sheng opened the door with his washbasin in his arms, he ran straight into Jiang Liang and Xiao Wu.

"Boss! Sister Xiao Wu, you're up so early too!" Wang Sheng greeted them with a smile.

Jiang Liang smiled and nodded. "Yeah, you guys are up pretty early too."

Xiao Wu planted her hands on her hips and shouted, "Where's Tang San? Get out here right now!"

Hearing her voice, the other students of Dorm Seven gradually came out as well, but Tang San was nowhere to be seen.

"Sister Xiao Wu, do you need Tang San for something?"

"Did Tang San come back last night?"

"I don't remember. Ever since he stopped helping us, I haven't paid attention to him."

The crowd looked at one another. Everyone said they had not seen Tang San since yesterday.

One shorter student, however, said that when he got up to use the bathroom last night, he saw Tang San lying in bed.

But as for when Tang San got up, he had no idea.

Jiang Liang smacked his forehead. "Damn it, that little bastard really slipped away!"

He had brought Xiao Wu here so early because he knew Yu Xiaogang would definitely take Tang San to the Soul Hunting Forest today to Hunt Soul Rings.

He had originally planned to block Tang San ahead of time and give him a beating to vent their anger.

Who would have thought that little bastard would slip away so quickly!

"Slipped away? Does that mean he isn't at the academy?" Xiao Wu's expression changed drastically.

Jiang Liang smiled and waved his hand. "Not quite. He just went to Hunt Soul Rings. If you want to beat him up, we'll probably have to wait until this afternoon."

Hearing that, Xiao Wu finally relaxed.

As long as Tang San had not run away, she could still beat him up and vent her anger!

But Wang Sheng chuckled and shook his head. "Who cares whether he's here or not? We can't be bothered with him anymore anyway."

"Exactly. We thought he was so impressive, but it turns out he's just a coward."

"I don't think he has Innate Full Soul Power at all. How could a useless Martial Soul like Blue Silver Grass possibly have full Soul Power?"

The Work-Study Students all chimed in at once, each of them filled with righteous indignation.

"Alright, everyone. There's no point discussing it any further. We can settle the score with Tang San once he comes back."

Seeing everyone crowded together, Jiang Liang smiled helplessly. "For now, hurry up and wash. Class is about to start."

"Right, listen to the boss!" Wang Sheng immediately took the lead in agreeing and hurried everyone off to wash up and get ready.
