One More Word and I'll Cut It Off, Class Assignment, Wu Changkong's Eyes Grew Cold

"If you haven't met Li the Immortal in your life, you've lived your youth in vain."

Xie Xie was deeply unconvinced.

If he didn't know Li Luo, did that mean he wasn't a youth?

He was exactly nine years old, a handsome lad in the prime of his youth—how could he not be considered a youth?

It was simply absurd.

What was even more absurd was the claim that a level fourteen Spirit Master had defied the odds to kill a nine-ringed evil Titled Douluo; anyone with eyes could see it was fake.

Yet, the Federation was fanning the flames.

The Spirit Pagoda was blind.

They had actually allowed Li Luo to enter the Young Genius Ranking.

Even if it was just at the bottom of the list, it was still an entry.

He, Xie Xie, heir to the Xie Family and its future helmsman, hadn't even made the list.

Yet Li Luo, a country bumpkin, had made it.

Xie Xie sighed, "It is simply that the heavens are jealous of someone born with a silver spoon in his mouth like me."

"If it weren't for the need to avoid suspicion, how could I possibly fail to make a mere Young Genius Ranking?"

His eyes were filled with resentment as he watched Li Luo surrounded by a crowd of young ladies. He felt bitter—why couldn't that person be him?

Xie Xie's bodyguard in black spoke like a sycophant, "Young Master, you look very displeased with Li the Immortal. Should I go over and beat him up?"

Xie Xie was speechless. The bodyguard his father had sent seemed to be lacking in the brain department. With so many people here, he wanted to go over and beat Li Luo up?

"Do you have a death wish, or do I?"

Xie Xie had experienced being swarmed by fangirls before.

The number of young ladies surrounding Li Luo was at least a thousand, if not more.

"Let's go," Xie Xie said.

He had already investigated and found out that Li Luo was also going to attend East Sea Academy. There would be plenty of time in the future; there was no need to rush.

Just then, the crowd surged.

Someone carrying a mountain of bags collided with Xie Xie, knocking him flat on his back.

Tang Wulin panicked, apologizing incessantly, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I didn't see you."

"If you're going to say sorry, what are your eyes for?" the bodyguard in black said coldly.

Tang Wulin apologized again, "I'm carrying too much stuff, it blocked my vision. I'm really, truly sorry."

Xie Xie scrambled up from the ground and glared at the bodyguard, "Are you an idiot? Don't you know to help your young master up first?"

"Oh, Young Master, I'm sorry, I'm sorry," the bodyguard apologized hurriedly.

"I've been reading too many 'Dragon Overlord' novels lately, and I couldn't help myself for a moment..."

"Hmph, your salary is docked for this month!" Xie Xie snorted coldly.

He didn't even spare Tang Wulin a glance before walking away.

Perhaps in Xie Xie's eyes, a bumpkin like Tang Wulin, draped in bags, wasn't even worth his attention.

Only Li Luo was worthy of his focus.

Tang Wulin stood frozen in place for a moment before muttering to himself, "City folk sure seem arrogant."

But he quickly put the minor incident behind him.

He had more important things to do.

His Brother Luo was being crowded by a group of young ladies and was walking further and further away.

Tang Wulin shouted, "Wait for me, Brother Luo!"

At the East Sea Academy bus pickup point, Li Luo stopped and said, "Thank you all for seeing me off. You've worked hard."

"Especially Captain Mu Xi, who set aside so much of her beloved forging to spend time and energy organizing this meeting."

"Thank you!"

"Thank you, everyone."

Li Luo bowed, and the young ladies were deeply moved.

Mu Xi's eyes shimmered; she was wondering if she could get some of the family's deep-sea silver.

Then, she could beg her father to make a storage ring for Li Luo.

Or perhaps a storage belt.

Li Luo boarded the East Sea Academy bus and waved to the crowd.

The group of young ladies watched as Li Luo departed.

At the very last second, Tang Wulin, laden with all his bags, squeezed onto the bus.

"Phew, I'm roasting!" Tang Wulin plopped down into his seat.

"Here." Li Luo handed the fan in his hand to Tang Wulin.

The fan was one that Miss Liu Yuxin had given him earlier, fearing he might be hot.

Seeing how hard Tang Wulin had worked, carrying all his bags along the way, Li Luo simply gave the fan to Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin took it excitedly.

He fanned himself a few times.

"So cool!" Tang Wulin was intoxicated; he could smell a fragrance in the breeze.

Is this Brother Luo's scent?

In reality, it was Liu Yuxin's perfume...

The two arrived at East Sea Academy by bus.

After registering for enrollment, Li Luo and Tang Wulin were assigned to different dormitories.

Perhaps the inertia of fate was simply too great.

Tang Wulin was still assigned to Dormitory 205.

Tang Wulin sighed inwardly, Why couldn't I be assigned to the same dorm as Brother Luo?

Sigh, the goddess of luck does not favor me!

He took his luggage and arrived at Dormitory 205.

Tang Wulin was immediately met with harassment from Zhou Changxi.

After Tang Wulin went out to fetch water, Zhou Changxi looked at the fan on Tang Wulin's luggage bag and sneered, "The new guy is a softie sissy. Pfft, what decent person uses a fan!"

He swept the fan off the luggage bag and onto the floor.

Tang Wulin happened to walk back in.

Seeing the fan on the floor, his eyes turned red, and he said angrily, "Pick it up!"

Zhou Changxi, of course, refused.

The two began to fight in the dormitory.

Just as they were fighting, the cold youth Xie Xie walked in and stepped right onto the fan.

A footprint appeared on the snow-white fan.

"Ah!" Tang Wulin's face twisted. "You pay for my fan!"

Xie Xie said coldly, "It's just a fan, isn't it? Is it worth it?!"

His face was full of disdain.

"What do you know?! You don't know anything! This is a gift from Brother Luo!" Tang Wulin was emotional.

"Brother Luo? Li Luo?" Xie Xie asked tentatively.

Tang Wulin's eyes were as red as an offended bull. He did not answer Xie Xie, only repeating over and over, "You pay for my fan!"

"Pay?!" Xie Xie was full of disdain. He had originally intended to pay, but upon hearing that Tang Wulin seemed to be a friend of Li Luo, he was overjoyed. Good, good, good. Li Luo, this is a chance heaven has bestowed upon me.

Let me expose what kind of trash this genius on the Young Genius Ranking really is!

Xie Xie said arrogantly and provocatively, "From childhood until now, no one has ever made me pay!"

Tang Wulin, of course, would not back down.

In the end, the two walked to the open space of the dormitory; they would let their fists do the talking!

Xie Xie stood with his hands behind his back. "Country bumpkin, don't blame me for bullying you. You can have your Brother Luo join you."

"Isn't he assisting Master Wei?"

"He can just assist you."

"And I, Xie Xie, welcome all comers!"

Tang Wulin's voice was cold. "You aren't worthy of making Brother Luo move!"

"Make him come out!" Xie Xie snorted.

Tang Wulin retorted, "You aren't worthy!"

The two began a shouting match...

Li Luo, having put down his luggage, pushed open the window and saw the two in the dormitory's open space.

Li Luo calmly went downstairs.

He arrived before the two of them.

Xie Xie was ecstatic. "Li Luo, you finally came!"

"I am here."

Li Luo said indifferently, "Since you have repeatedly requested that I join the battle."

"Then I shall show mercy."

"And satisfy your wish."
