The three girls hit it off at once.
When it came to dealing with scumbags, they stood united.
With Lin Ye's inner thoughts at the heart of it, they'd seize opportunities and torment those scumbags!
Besides that, they could make time now and then to teach them a lesson. They absolutely couldn't let them off easily or allow them to get away with anything.
At that moment, Tang San and the others inexplicably felt a chill.
It was as if some great terror had set its sights on them.
Yet they couldn't detect anything.
Lin Ye had no idea what the three girls were thinking. He was busy wondering what good stuff tomorrow's check-in would bring him.
If he could become a Titled Douluo in one go, how awesome would that be?
For starters, he had to go teach Tang Hao a lesson and show that guy what the strongest Tool Martial Soul really was!
Back then, Uncle Lin Jie had smashed Tang Hao's Clear Sky Hammer, shattering his pride.
More than two months had already passed. Lin Ye wondered whether Tang Hao had recovered by now.
Should he get Uncle Lin Jie to go teach him another lesson?
"I almost forgot—the Blue Silver Empress Ah Yin's cave!"
He'd suddenly remembered that there was somewhere he apparently still hadn't checked in at over the years.
Ah Yin was an important figure, too. That gloomy cave should be worth checking in at.
It was bound to give him something good.
But he clearly didn't have a chance right now, and the original story hadn't said exactly where it was, either.
He could only guess that it was somewhere near Holy Soul Village.
Tang Hao definitely wouldn't let Ah Yin get too far away from him.
He might not visit Ah Yin, but he wouldn't let her out of his control.
After all, she was the Blue Silver Emperor. If she could find some blessed land, perhaps she could grow rapidly.
He just didn't know whether sacrificing herself again could produce another Soul Ring and Soul Bone.
If it could, that would be incredible.
He could farm them without limit.
Lin Ye would never underestimate Tang Hao's filthy thoughts.
The man was already a despicable, shameless scoundrel. What wouldn't he do?
Leaving Ah Yin in a gloomy cave was already a way of restricting her growth.
Perhaps he'd done those things back then and felt uneasy about them. Maybe he was afraid Ah Yin would grow too quickly and learn the truth or something.
After thinking about Tang Hao for a while, Lin Ye finally drifted into a deep sleep.
In the middle of the night, he felt someone sneak into his room and slip under his covers.
Then an arm and a smooth, pale leg wound around him.
The familiar touch, the familiar scent.
It was definitely Xiao Wu!
He'd gotten used to this over the years.
Xiao Wu's "desensitization training" had gone on for six years without a break.
It had been the same even when they were in Heavenly Sword Village.
Whenever they were outdoors without a tent, she'd curl up in his arms to sleep.
For Lin Ye, it had been fine before.
But now they'd both grown up, and she was starting to develop.
If they kept this up, they really might end up striking a spark!
This girl Xiao Wu... We've all grown up. At this rate, my pure and innocent body is going to be lost!
I'll have to lock the door tomorrow night!
Xiao Wu's body trembled slightly beneath the covers.
Lock the door?
Heh~
As if!
In another dormitory, Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing were speechless.
He was getting all the benefits and still acting like the victim!
But the girls' dormitory was over twenty meters away. How could they hear his inner thoughts from there?
Just how far could his inner voice reach?
They'd have to find a chance to test it.
The next morning, Lin Ye got up, yawned, washed up, and habitually lifted the covers.
"Time to get up~"
"Mm~ Let me sleep a little longer. I'm exhausted."
Xiao Wu didn't even open her eyes. She rolled over, grabbed the covers, and pulled them right over her head.
"Get up earlier. I'll wait for you in the cafeteria."
Lin Ye shook his head to himself and silently thought of checking in.
A new day had begun. The check-in had refreshed!
[Congratulations, Host, on successfully checking in at Shrek Academy. You have received Max-Level Alchemy, Complete Pharmacology, one level of Soul Power, a First Soul Ring, a Second Soul Ring upgraded by forty thousand years, and a Divine Artifact—the Nine-Leaf Divine Sword (growth-type)!]
The check-in rewards had arrived!
Lin Ye took a look. Good grief, were they really going to give him this much?
As expected, checking in at an important location brought great rewards.
Both his First Soul Ring and Second Soul Ring had been upgraded to eighty thousand years!
His Soul Power had reached level sixty-six!
And with Max-Level Alchemy and Complete Pharmacology, he'd become the strongest alchemist on Douluo Continent in an instant!
Complete Pharmacology included not only knowledge of healing, but also information about poisons!
All that information surged into his mind at once, and he remembered it firmly.
When he put this knowledge to use, it could even help him mix and match different formulas, reorganizing them into something new.
He'd instantly understand the effects of any medicinal herb he saw.
Finally, there was the Divine Artifact, the Nine-Leaf Divine Sword!
It was somewhat like one of the sword leaves of the Nine-Leaf Sword Grass, except its nine sword leaves were connected together.
A growth-type divine artifact meant that it could eventually advance to the level of a Super Divine Artifact!
Just thinking about it felt incredible.
When he stepped out of the dormitory, he felt refreshed from head to toe.
But he hadn't gone far when he saw Flender talking to Ning Rongrong, with Zhao Wuji beside them.
"Rongrong, could you help me out?"
Flender looked ready to cry. He was completely at his wits' end!
He'd gone to Suotuo City first thing that morning, hoping to get Dai Mubai out.
But Spirit Hall wouldn't give him the time of day.
Even offering bail hadn't worked.
In the end, the trouble Dai Mubai had caused had become far too serious. The whole of Suotuo City was buzzing with the news.
If Spirit Hall let Dai Mubai out so easily now, wouldn't it become a laughingstock?
And the City Defense Army wasn't easy to deal with, either!
The moment Dai Mubai got out, there was no telling whether the City Defense Army would take him away immediately!
The people who'd been injured earlier were now keeping watch at the City Defense Army and Spirit Hall every day.
They wanted compensation!
They had other demands, too: Dai Mubai had to be severely punished and made to issue a public apology, among other things.
So Flender had no way to get him out right now.
At the end of the day, he was only a Soul Saint.
He had no standing at Spirit Hall.
"You want me to get him out? No way!"
Ning Rongrong flatly refused.
Flender had explained everything. Although she already knew, now she could refuse him openly and legitimately.
"Dean, why let someone whose mind is clouded by lust join the academy?"
"Are you sure he won't corrupt the others?"
Ning Rongrong said angrily.
If this had happened before, Flender would certainly have scolded her and launched into a long lecture.
But he couldn't do that now.
Ning Rongrong was the academy's biggest financial backer—its Rich Sister!
Without her support, the academy would be back where it had been before.
Being poor really wasn't easy.
"Rongrong, help me out. You're classmates, after all..."
"I'm sorry, but I can't help you with this. Besides, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can't interfere in Spirit Hall's affairs. That might provoke a conflict."
Ning Rongrong changed her excuse.
That really left Flender with no way around it.
He knew the Upper Three Sects and Spirit Hall weren't on good terms.
If the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect interfered in this matter, Spirit Hall could easily seize the opportunity to hold it against them. That would only make things even more troublesome.
"Dean, don't worry too much. If nothing else happens, he'll probably be out in a few days!"
Ning Rongrong softened her tone, but inwardly she was wondering how she could stir up a little trouble at Spirit Hall—ideally, enough to keep Dai Mubai locked up for a few years!
Before you continue
