"All right, children, please quiet down. It's time for class," Yue Jing said softly, exuding the unique charm of a woman her age with every word.

It had to be said that Yue Jing's words were effective. The previously noisy classroom fell silent in an instant.

However, the children could not help but turn their gazes toward Cao Yan, their eyes filled with admiration.

After all, in their eyes, Cao Yan was so young, yet he had managed to defeat someone like Grandmaster. They could not help but feel somewhat impressed.

Some of the pretty girls even cast flirtatious looks at Cao Yan. Girls at this age were especially prone to such romantic stirrings.

"Cao Yan, lots of girls in class are secretly looking at you. Don't tell me they've fallen for you?" Xiao Wu poked Cao Yan's arm with her finger and whispered.

Though she appeared to be an impatient girl, she was actually quite thoughtful. She did not want Cao Yan to go astray at such a young age. That would not be good, especially not for his health.

"Uh, could it be because I'm too handsome? Am I just popular with girls?" Cao Yan said with a mischievous grin after hearing Xiao Wu's words.

Though Cao Yan was a transmigrator, he was not particularly outstanding in terms of looks. Even when walking through the streets of Nuoding City, he could only occasionally attract the attention of a large number of women. There was nothing to be proud of.

He truly could not understand it. Was being handsome a crime these days?

Could being too handsome sometimes be a sin?

"But I always feel like the way they look at you is weird. It's like they even want to force themselves on you," Xiao Wu said seriously, pouting.

Although she had taken human form, she was quite mature when it came to such matters. It was definitely not something a child like Cao Yan could understand.

Moreover, as she watched those girls looking at Cao Yan, she felt somewhat displeased. She could not explain why.

"Ah! It's that serious? How about I give you this opportunity instead?" Cao Yan said, wanting to know how his wife Xiao Wu would answer this question.

After all, his own wife would be the one benefiting, so she would not be losing out, right?

"Hmph, you stinky Cao Yan. I'm ignoring you," Xiao Wu snorted unhappily. She directly shook off Cao Yan's arm and turned her head away, seeming to be angry.

Cao Yan merely smiled casually at that. He knew Xiao Wu would not truly be angry with him.

Their relationship at the moment was much like that of a young couple who had only just begun seeing each other. A little bickering was perfectly normal, and the occasional joke was undoubtedly the best way to deepen their feelings.

It could be said that their relationship was now separated by only a thin sheet of paper. As long as they pierced through it, their relationship would naturally move a step further.

However, now was not the best opportunity.

When the time was right, he would naturally make his move. When that time came, he would strike straight at the heart of the matter.

"Teacher, it seems one person is missing from class," the short, lecherous-looking boy suddenly said, pointing at the classroom's only empty seat.

That seat belonged to Tang San.

Tang San, like Cao Yan and the others, was a first-year student, so he was in the same classroom.

However, Tang San had gone to Soul Hunting Forest with Grandmaster today to obtain a soul ring. That was why he was absent.

The two had not even asked for leave, all at Grandmaster's suggestion. In his view, the teachers at Nuoding Academy were merely a bunch of fools. He was the invincible Grandmaster of theory—did he need to ask anyone's permission before doing something?

"Hm? There seems to be someone called Tang San, right? Hehe, Grandmaster's disciple too." Yue Jing casually glanced at the attendance roster, her beautiful brows knitting slightly as she clearly showed some dissatisfaction.

Her dissatisfaction was directed at Grandmaster. She truly could not understand where such a useless freeloader, living off the academy, got his sense of superiority. Even if he was taking his disciple to obtain a soul ring, could he not even ask for leave?

Was Nuoding Academy his family's property?

"It's fine. Let's begin class now." Yue Jing waved her tender, jade-like hand indifferently.

"Teacher, should we wait for Tang San? After all, the first lesson after entering the academy is very important for every Soul Master." Cao Yan raised his hand and spoke to Yue Jing with a smile.

Of course, the most important thing was taking the chance to admire the teacher's graceful figure. Even if he could not have her, it was still nice to look a few more times.

"No need. His martial soul is only Blue Silver Grass. Such a useless martial soul is not qualified to attend my class." Yue Jing looked at Cao Yan and nodded in satisfaction, a hint of amusement in her eyes. Her smile bloomed like a flower, as if it could make people sink into it and never escape.

"Blue Silver Grass, such a useless martial soul? That's hilarious. I really don't know how someone like that got into the academy."

"Exactly. That trash martial soul is even more useless than Grandmaster's. At least Grandmaster's martial soul can fart."

As soon as Yue Jing finished speaking, students immediately echoed her words.

In their eyes, a Soul Master with Blue Silver Grass was, in some ways, even more pathetic than Grandmaster.

As for Xiao Wu, she looked at Cao Yan tenderly, sweetness filling her heart.

Cao Yan had even taken the initiative to plead with the teacher for a classmate he had never met, just so that classmate could learn a little more about martial souls. What a kind boy he was!

"All right, today I'll first teach everyone some knowledge about martial souls. Are you curious? What is your teacher's martial soul? And what is my level?" Yue Jing's sultry voice rang out, her pretty face carrying an intoxicating smile.

"Yeah, what is Teacher's martial soul?" A curious student immediately asked.

"Actually, I'm a Food System Soul Master. My martial soul is a cucumber, and it can serve some subtle purposes. For example, it can satisfy the teacher's physiological needs. It can not only be used, but also eaten."

After saying that, Yue Jing lightly waved her jade-like hand, drawing a circle in the air and forming a strange hand seal. Then her thin lips parted as she said, "I have a big cucumber. It is thin, long, and big."

After reciting the soul incantation, a pale green glow appeared on her fair jade-like hand. Then, a small cucumber appeared in her grasp. Beneath her jade feet, three soul rings slowly rose—one white, one yellow, and one purple. This was the cultivation of a Soul Elder.

"Wow, amazing! Is this the power of a Soul Master?"

"That cucumber looks delicious. Teacher is amazing."

"Teacher, does your cucumber break easily?"

At the sight of this miraculous scene, several children immediately cried out in excitement and even asked some strange questions. Such an ability seemed beyond the understanding of children their age.

"Hehe, children, Teacher's martial soul is only of the Food System, so its effects are ultimately limited. However, if you are fortunate enough in the future to encounter a disciple from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and fight alongside them, you will be able to experience the terrifying boosts that this kind of martial soul can provide to a Soul Master's strength and speed. With the assistance of such a Soul Master, your endurance will also increase, allowing you to last longer without decline," Yue Jing continued, her rosy little lips moving enticingly as she spoke.

This lesson lasted a long time. For every Soul Master, it was undoubtedly the most precious wealth.

And this also signified that they had stepped through the gates of the world of Soul Masters.
