Chu Men skillfully sidestepped, donned his protective gloves, bent down to pick up the scorching dumbbell, and teased with a cheeky grin:

"Your reaction is half a beat slower than usual, Dean. Who made you angry? I'll go sort them out right now!"

Liu Erlong glared, her scrutinizing gaze sweeping over Chu Men, who still had grease on his lips and was chewing away, as she demanded:

"Tell me the truth, what exactly is going on with Xiao Wu?"

Chu Men's eyes darted around. Unsure of how much information Liu Erlong actually possessed, he didn't answer rashly.

He placed the dumbbell back onto the equipment rack, glanced at Liu Erlong's fair, pristine palms, and asked instead:

"Huh? Where is Xiao Wu?"

"Stop spouting nonsense with me! In just five days, you managed to snatch a six-year-old, level-twelve genius from Nuoding City on the southwestern frontier. You're quite the operator, aren't you!"

Liu Erlong stepped forward, her shadow stretching across the floor under the setting sun, resembling a prehistoric Tyrannosaurus Rex awakening!

"That's a given! From now on, if anyone in the academy says Teacher Chu Men is lazy or slack, you must stand up and speak a word of justice for me, Dean!"

Liu Erlong ignored Chu Men's nonsense and slammed the door shut behind her with a loud "bang."

It was a classic "shut the door to beat the dog" setup.

[It's happening, the domestic violence scene is here!]

[I bet two packs of spicy strips that the streamer is going to be carried out horizontally today!]

[Don't be a coward, streamer! Just tell her Xiao Wu is your child bride! Then give the mother dragon a loving hug!]

[Hey, give the streamer a way out!]

[Office of the Female Principal.avi]

"It's not that I don't want to tell you..."

Chu Men swallowed the dragon tendon in his mouth, along with a gulp of saliva.

He pulled a black handkerchief identical to Liu Erlong's from his pocket, wiped the corners of his mouth, and his tone turned serious:

"This is trouble, big trouble! I don't want to drag you into it."

Liu Erlong's sharp gaze paused for a moment before turning cold again. She gritted her teeth and said, "Now you're drawing a clear line between us, huh?!"

"Cough, cough. A fair lady is a gentleman's quest, after all. I was young and reckless before, and besides, neither of us is married..."

[Holy crap, major tea!]

[Oh my god, what plot did I miss?]

[Domineering principal and intern teacher! I could watch a hundred episodes of this setting!]

"Enough of your nonsense!"

Liu Erlong lunged forward, pinning Chu Men against the equipment rack.

In an instant, she seemed to return to her days as the Horn of Slaughter, her domineering, beautiful eyes locked onto Chu Men:

"If you don't explain yourself clearly, don't even think about walking out that door today!"

The scorching breath hitting Chu Men's face made his breathing grow shallow.

This mother tyrannosaurus actually has a feminine side.

Chu Men hesitated for a moment, glanced out the window, and lowered his voice:

"Alright, I don't know much either. I only know that Xiao Wu is being targeted by Spirit Hall—the 'wanted criminal' kind—so I intend to shelter her."

Liu Erlong's expression softened slightly, though she remained skeptical: "Even if her talent is high, it shouldn't be enough to attract the attention of Spirit Hall."

Chu Men curled his lip, muttering to himself:

This genius is already being targeted by Spirit Hall, and I even have a Spirit Hall deacon token in my pocket. Do you want to see it?

"Because she possesses something that Spirit Hall is determined to obtain!"

Chu Men didn't point it out directly, but emphasized: "By the way, never let her take off that pink necklace around her neck. It can conceal her... identity!"

"So that's how it is. The necklace you gave her... you really put some thought into it!"

Listening to Liu Erlong's sarcastic tone, Chu Men didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He flipped his wrist and took a watch out of his soul tool, one he had just sourced from A-Zheng.

It was a dark red mechanical ladies' watch, crafted entirely from stainless steel and black ceramic, exuding a cold, formidable mechanical aesthetic.

[Holy crap, the streamer is finally getting it. I give this flirting attempt a nine!]

[Ahhh, I'm shipping it! Long-Men party forever!]

[Is Sister Erlong blushing? I've screenshotted and forwarded it!]

[Did the streamer take a sponsorship? What brand is this? The marketing is on point!]

[I checked, it's just a domestic no-name brand, but I have to say, it really suits Sister Erlong's temperament!]

Neither Chu Men nor A-Zheng knew that the watch they picked at random would later save this near-bankrupt watch factory.

Liu Erlong's earlobes turned slightly red, and just as she was about to politely decline, a knock on the door interrupted them.

Chu Men nimbly brushed aside Liu Erlong's arm, shoved the watch and its box into her hands, then turned and pulled open the door.

"Oh, it's the Dean! Please, come in!"

"Teacher Chu Men, you've finally returned. Several groups of students have already come to me asking about you; your soul tool class is truly popular!"

Seeing Chu Men, the Dean's face immediately broke into a smile.

"You're too kind, you're too kind. I'll be back to teaching as normal tomorrow. You're here to see the Dean, so I won't disturb you two. I'm off!"

Without waiting for them to react, Chu Men seized the opportunity to slip away.

Liu Erlong also flipped her wrist, stowing the watch away before the Dean could turn back.

As her fingertips brushed against the cool watch face, a smile curled involuntarily at the corners of her lips.

Blue Tyrant Academy possessed the largest expanse of greenery within Heaven Dou City.

With birds singing, flowers blooming, and trees providing shade, the environment was absolutely incredible!

Isn't Blue Tyrant Academy supposed to be a school for commoners? This landscaping is way too good!

It only recruits commoner students! But with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan backing it, how else could they carve out such a large plot of land in the imperial capital?

"Little bunny, little bunny, open the door for me~~"

"Excuse me, student, have you seen a little girl wearing pink clothes, about this tall?"

Chu Men stopped a female student and gestured in front of her.

"No... wait, are you Teacher Chu Men?"

"I am not, thank you, student!"

The young girl's eyes were practically sparkling, so Chu Men hurried away!

"Hello, student..."

"I am not..."

After asking four or five people, he hadn't found a single clue about Xiao Wu, but instead, he had been cornered into signing three autographs.

Teacher Chu Men is really popular at school!

The female students in this other world are so pretty! That one in the green dress just now, looking so shy and timid—ah, I'm in love!

It's not just the students. I watched the livestream clips on the site; the women of the Douluo world have a very high average level of beauty!

"If I were Liu Erlong, where would I put Xiao Wu... A wooden cabin hidden deep in the forest!" Chu Men's eyes lit up, and he punched his palm!

He strode across the straight academy boulevard and followed a familiar tree-lined path for a while until a few secluded wooden cabins appeared before him.

This was where Liu Erlong had lived in seclusion before!

It's a pity I couldn't roll a tracking function on that pink necklace! Otherwise, I wouldn't have to search so hard.

Chu Men had plenty of livestream points now, but unfortunately, the necklace had already been given away.

Chu Men had no choice but to dig through the goods A-Zheng had packed and sent over, finding a soft pink silicone Pink Rabbit Bracelet decorated with a cute little white rabbit.

With over 300,000 livestream points, he had enough to roll for an affix on the item!

"Confirm: Pink Rabbit Bracelet—Targeted Affix—Purple Grade!"

1,000 points per try!

It took a full ten attempts before he finally rolled a purple "High-Level Tracking" affix.

"The probability for targeted affixes is still too low. If I used random affixes, I could probably roll a black affix for ten thousand points!"

Just then, from a small wooden cabin not far away, a pair of snow-white rabbit ears quietly poked out from the window.

Xiao Wu blinked her large, round eyes, watching Chu Men's back with a mix of vigilance and curiosity.
