Zhang Tianyu's eyes lit up at once!
No wonder it had taken two missions to unlock this Soul Ring. It turned out to be a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring!
Great! Wonderful!
It was worth clarifying that although this was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, he had unlocked it through the system. So after obtaining it, Zhang Tianyu would only get the Soul Skills attached to the ring and its attribute bonuses. He wouldn't gain any extra Soul Power to raise his level.
So his Soul Power was still level 10.
Even so, it was already incredible. In the first-generation Douluo Continent storyline, who could have a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring as their first Soul Ring?
Who? Who???
Of course, transmigrators didn't count.
Only then did Wang Sheng and the others react!
Good grief, this kid had moved way too fast!
There was no way a little weakling with only level 3 Soul Power could be that quick!
Looking at the Wooden Sword held against Xiao Wu's neck, Wang Sheng said blankly, "Uh, boss—no, Sister Xiao Wu."
Xiao Wu waved a hand. "Don't call me boss anymore. I lost."
Zhang Tianyu put away his sword. Xiao Wu looked at him and said, "Your name is Zhang Tianyu, right? Starting today, you're the boss."
"Call me boss—no, call me Brother Tian Yu." Zhang Tianyu crooked a finger at her.
Everyone: ...
Xiao Wu curled her lip. "Hmph, don't get cocky. Just wait and see. I'll take back the boss's position sooner or later!"
Wang Sheng and the others exchanged doubtful looks. Had the boss really changed hands that quickly? Were they seriously going to let this guy with only level 3 Soul Power be their boss?
"No way!" Wang Sheng stepped forward. "I want to test your strength myself!"
Xiao Wu and Zhang Tianyu both looked at him.
He continued, "As the boss, you have to protect all the work-study students and stand up to those pampered noble students. Zhang Tianyu, I don't know what your true strength is, but with only level 3 Soul Power, you definitely won't be a match for those noble students!"
Zhang Tianyu nodded. Honestly, Wang Sheng had done a fairly good job as boss.
Looking across all the unimportant supporting characters in the first-generation Douluo Continent story, Wang Sheng was one of the few who'd left Zhang Tianyu with a good impression.
Wang Sheng's values were a hundred times better than Tang San's, that so-called damn protagonist.
The fight was over in no time. In less than ten seconds, the Wooden Sword was at Wang Sheng's throat.
"What do you say?" Zhang Tianyu asked.
"I'm convinced." Wang Sheng accepted defeat wholeheartedly. "I don't know how you can be this strong with only level 3 Soul Power, but you're more than strong enough to be our boss!"
Zhang Tianyu was about to speak when he suddenly heard footsteps at the door. At the same time, everyone turned to look.
Tang San made his grand entrance, his face pale.
He was carrying a set of bedding in his arms.
Zhang Tianyu immediately went over. "Hey, Tang San, you're awake? Feeling better?"
Tang San looked at Zhang Tianyu, his eyes full of gratitude. "Teacher Xie said you found a teacher to save me. Thank you, Zhang Tianyu."
Teacher Xie was the healing Soul Master.
"Don't mention it." Zhang Tianyu patted him on the shoulder.
You got beaten up by Director Su because of me, after all, so there's no need to thank me!
"Boss, who's this?" Wang Sheng and the others came over to ask.
Zhang Tianyu gave them a brief introduction. When they heard Tang San had Innate Full Soul Power, they were all astonished.
But when they learned his Martial Soul was Blue Silver Grass, they immediately lost interest.
What use was Innate Full Soul Power with a Trash Martial Soul like Blue Silver Grass?
It was like having ten thousand terrifying .50-caliber armor-piercing rounds, but only a slingshot to fire them with.
A complete waste.
At that moment, Xiao Wu spotted the bedding in Tang San's arms, and her little face turned pale. "Oh no."
Everyone's attention immediately turned to her. Zhang Tianyu asked, pretending not to know, "What's wrong?"
"I..." Two embarrassed flushes rose on Xiao Wu's fair cheeks. "I don't have any bedding."
Zhang Tianyu looked around and said, "Ah, now that you mention it, I don't have any either."
"Boss, use mine!"
"Use mine!"
"I just washed mine. Use mine!"
"Sister Xiao Wu, you can use mine if you don't mind!"
"Sister Xiao Wu, mine's better!"
The warm and welcoming residents of Dorm Seven immediately offered to help them. Tang San looked at the two of them strangely, unable to understand what had happened. How had Zhang Tianyu somehow become the boss?
But the moment he saw Xiao Wu, none of that mattered anymore.
What a pretty and adorable girl!
Could she be a work-study student too? Did she live in this dormitory as well? But it looked like she was the only girl here!
This...
Was it really okay for one girl to live with a bunch of boys?!
"No need." Zhang Tianyu waved a hand. "I'll just go buy a set of bedding."
"Then I'll go with you," Xiao Wu said immediately. Clearly, she didn't want to use something someone else had already used—especially something a boy had used.
Who knew if there might be some strange substance on that bedding?
After all, children in Douluo matured early.
"Sure," Zhang Tianyu said, of course not refusing. "But it's mealtime now, so let's eat first."
"Boss, I'll take you to the cafeteria!" Wang Sheng said at once.
"Tang San, coming with us?" Zhang Tianyu asked.
"I'll pass. I'm not hungry right now."
In truth, he had no money and could only stay behind and eat his dry rations.
"Okay. We're off, then."
As he watched Zhang Tianyu and Xiao Wu leave the dormitory side by side, surrounded by everyone,
Tang San suddenly felt empty inside for some reason, a strange sense of loss washing over him.
"What's wrong with me?" Tang San muttered to himself, confused and annoyed.
At the cafeteria entrance.
Just as Zhang Tianyu was wondering how he should beat up Xiao Chenyu later, a group of students suddenly rushed out of the cafeteria.
They were all buzzing with excitement, hurrying toward the athletic field.
They chattered among themselves:
"Have you heard? Grandmaster got beaten up!"
Everyone froze at the news.
Zhang Tianyu looked stunned, but at the same time, his heart leaped with joy!
Oh?
Yu Xiaogang had already been beaten up?
Which kindhearted angel of a big sister had done the deed?
"What happened? How could Grandmaster get beaten up?"
"I heard he challenged Director Su and got beaten up!"
"Holy crap, that's explosive!"
"But wasn't Grandmaster supposed to be really powerful? Even the dean has to show him respect. How could Director Su beat him up?"
"Grandmaster is powerful, but only when it comes to talking! He's the King of Mouth-Strength!"
