The small dormitory contained a row of communal beds, with bedding piled in a mess. An open space had been cleared in the middle, and seven or eight half-grown boys stood around it, staring at the little girl in the center with utter admiration on their faces.
The little girl looked to be only six or seven years old. Her long scorpion braid hung to her waist, and she wore a pink little dress. Her delicate features were like those of a carved doll, and her large, watery eyes made her resemble a lively little rabbit, so adorable that hearts melted at the sight of her.
At that moment, she stood with her hands on her hips and shouted brightly at the boys around her, "I already beat every one of you! Starting today, I'm the boss of Dorm Seven! You all have to listen to me, understand?"
This little girl was none other than Xiao Wu, who had just left the Star Dou Forest and made her way to Nuoding Academy to enroll.
The instant her words fell, Tang San and Lin Yue pushed open the door and entered. A crisp ding suddenly rang out in Xiao Wu's mind, startling her so badly that her steps halted instinctively.
[Ding! The Scum Girl System has detected two highly gifted Soul Masters!][Target 1 detected: Tang San. Innate Full Soul Power, Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul. Potential rating: SSS!] [Target 2 detected: Lin Yue. Innate Full Soul Power, War Spear Martial Soul, Soul Master realm. Potential rating: SSS!] [System notification: Host has successfully discovered two top-tier geniuses! Conquest progress activated!]
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up instantly, and even her breathing quickened.
She was neither reincarnated nor a transmigrator. She was a native Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit from the Star Dou Forest who had transformed into human form.
The day before she completed her transformation and left the Star Dou Forest, she had accidentally bound herself to something called the Scum Girl System.
At first, she had resisted it with all her heart. What kind of proper thing could possibly be called the Scum Girl System?
But the system had quickly shown her its benefits. Through the beginner task it issued, she had made Da Ming, the Sky Azure Bull Python, and Er Ming, the Titan Giant Ape—her two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast little brothers in the Star Dou Forest who obeyed her every word—devote themselves to her completely. That had earned her an item that perfectly concealed Soul Beast aura, allowing her to travel safely from the Star Dou Forest all the way to Nuoding City. Even if a Titled Douluo came, they would never discern her true Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast form.
What she found impossible to refuse most of all was the system's core rule: a true scum girl did not conquer someone only to cruelly abandon them afterward. She cast a wide net and pursued multiple targets at once, making every conquered target remain utterly devoted and obedient to her, willing to give her everything—even if they knew she had countless boyfriends and girlfriends around her.
There were no restrictions on conquest targets, but the higher their talent and the greater their numbers, the richer the rewards would be, with no upper limit!
The reward pool contained not only increases in Soul Power Level, breakthroughs in Soul Ring age limits, top-tier compatible Soul Bones, and items that perfectly concealed Soul Beast aura, but even resurrection chances and fragments of Divine Position inheritances!
As long as she conquered enough geniuses and made enough powerful people utterly devoted to her, she would not only survive securely, but could also revive her mother, who had sacrificed herself to protect her. She might even break through the shackles of level one hundred and attain a true Divine Position!
She had been wondering why the system had remained completely silent after she had spent half a day in the academy. She had been considering using these ordinary people as fodder—however small a fly was, it was still meat. Who would have thought that the truly high-value targets would only appear now?
Two top-tier geniuses, and one of them had even received an SSS rating from the system!
But when she looked at Lin Yue standing beside Tang San, Xiao Wu felt somewhat puzzled. Unable to stop herself, she muttered inwardly to the system, "System, there's a girl here too? Girls are within the conquest range as well?"
[System notification: Host, please remember that a true scum girl must take both men and women alike, with no restrictions on race! Forget merely a girl with top-tier talent—even a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, a Titled Douluo, or a Limit Douluo may be conquered as long as they hold high value!] [System emergency warning: The Douluo Continent where the host currently resides is extremely hostile toward transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts. The Human Alliance Declaration explicitly states that once a Transformed Soul Beast is discovered, all human Soul Masters across the continent shall unite to kill it. Once your true form is exposed, endless pursuit will await you. Even Da Ming and Er Ming cannot protect you for a lifetime. If you want to survive, revive your mother, and become a god, then do not care about gender, age, whether they are human or beast. Conquer them and make them all your supporters—that is the only proper path!] [System addendum: The more targets you conquer, the stronger your support will become and the richer your rewards will be. Even if the entire continent learns that countless followers surround you in the future, no one will dare lay a finger on you!]
Xiao Wu's resolve instantly hardened.
That was right. Whether they were male or female, human or beast, as long as they could help her revive her mother, become stronger and attain godhood, and live peacefully in this world so hostile toward Soul Beasts, conquering however many people it took was no big deal!
Was it not simply making them all like her and become utterly devoted to her? In the Star Dou Forest, she had managed to coax even Da Ming and Er Ming, those two infamous Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, into complete obedience. Why should she fear two six-year-old children?
She immediately put away her fierce, hands-on-hips demeanor from earlier. A smile so sweet it could make someone sick bloomed across her face, and her big eyes curved into two crescent moons as she skipped toward Tang San and Lin Yue. Without any sense of unfamiliarity, she familiarly grabbed one arm of each of them, her soft little hands gripping tightly as she said in a honeyed voice, "Wow, you two are so pretty! My name is Xiao Wu—the Wu from dancing. I just arrived at the academy too."
The work-study students who had been ready to acknowledge her as their boss were all dumbfounded.
Sister Xiao Wu, who had just been so domineering and beaten them all flat, had suddenly become so soft and adorable?!
Could she really be treating people differently based on their looks?
Lin Yue was stunned by Xiao Wu's sudden enthusiasm. Looking down at the little girl who only reached her shoulder, then into those large, watery, utterly untainted eyes, she inexplicably found something a little strange. Still, she nodded and said with a smile, "We're not here to stay. We were just passing by and came in to watch. I'm Lin Yue, and he's Tang San."
Tang San was also somewhat uncomfortable with Xiao Wu's excessive closeness. He instinctively wanted to pull his arm back, but although Xiao Wu's hand looked soft, her grip was exceptionally tight.
Without revealing anything, he activated his Purple Demon Eye and carefully examined the little girl before him. Yet he saw only faint Soul Power fluctuations around her. Her aura was clean, with nothing abnormal to be found. He merely felt that this little girl was exceptionally cute, though her gaze held a trace of urgency he could not understand.
Upon hearing their names, Xiao Wu's smile grew even sweeter. She gently swayed their arms and coquettishly said, "Sister Lin Yue, Brother Tang San, so you're students of this academy too! I just got here and don't know anyone. I don't even know where the cafeteria is. Could you show me around the academy? I won my bet with them just now and became the boss of Dorm Seven. From now on, if anyone in the academy dares bully you, I'll protect you!"
As she spoke, she puffed out her tiny chest, looking like a fearless little grown-up. She was so adorable that hearts melted.
Lin Yue could not help laughing at the sight. She simply found this little girl far too amusing, so she nodded at once. "Sure. We don't have anything to do anyway, and we were just about to look around the academy. We'll take you with us."
