Xiao Chenyu led a group of well-dressed upperclassmen.
They had surrounded the work-study students of Dorm Seven.
Wang Sheng and the others, trapped in the middle, were bruised and battered. They had clearly just suffered a beating.
The most awkward one, however, was Liu Long, who stood between the two groups.
Liu Long felt as though he were sitting on pins and needles, sweating profusely.
On one side was his former boss, Xiao Chenyu, the son of Nuoding City's lord. He had a powerful background and used to be Liu Long's patron.
On the other was his newly acknowledged boss, Lin Chuan, a ruthless man who could scare him into wetting himself with a single glance.
"Boss Xiao, please calm down."
Liu Long forced a smile, caught between both sides.
"Boss Lin and Third Brother aren't here. How about another day?"
"Another day? I'm crippling them today!"
Xiao Chenyu kicked Liu Long in the backside.
"You ungrateful bastard! You became a traitor after just one day? Get lost!"
Just then, a pink figure leaped out from the crowd of work-study students.
"Hey! You, Boss Xiao or whatever, you're being so loud!"
Xiao Wu planted her hands on her hips, her long scorpion braid swaying behind her. Her face was full of impatience.
"Lin Chuan isn't here, so I'm Dorm Seven's boss now!"
"You want to fight? I'll take you on!"
Xiao Chenyu froze for a moment before bursting into laughter.
"A little girl?"
"Are there no more work-study students? You're sending a girl out to die?"
"You're asking for it!"
Xiao Wu's eyes turned cold. She bent her knees slightly, then shot forward like a cannonball.
"First Soul Skill, Waist Bow!"
She gave Xiao Chenyu no time to react at all.
Xiao Wu's body traced a graceful arc through the air.
Her long legs instantly locked around Xiao Chenyu's neck.
She twisted at the waist and flung him hard!
Bang!
Xiao Chenyu, the sixth-year boss with eleven levels of Soul Power—
was actually thrown away like a sandbag.
He crashed heavily onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
Everyone stared wide-eyed.
They looked at the little girl, who casually dusted off her hands with an easy expression.
Xiao Wu proudly raised her chin, the rabbit ears atop her head twitching.
"Who's next?"
Just then, Lin Chuan and Tang San happened to enter through the gate.
Tang San looked at the scene, surprise flashing through his eyes.
"Huh? Is that Xiao Wu?"
Although they had fought before, he had not expected Xiao Wu's explosive power to be so strong.
And judging by the fluctuations of Soul Power around her—
Tang San gasped softly, "Innate Full Soul Power?"
He had always thought that only he and Brother Lin Chuan possessed Innate Full Soul Power.
He never expected this sweet-looking little girl to have it too!
And her Martial Soul was a Soft Bone Rabbit?
A rabbit, and this violent?
Xiao Wu spotted Lin Chuan and Tang San, and her eyes immediately lit up.
Ignoring the groaning Xiao Chenyu on the ground, she skipped over to them.
"Hey! Lin Chuan! Tang San! You're finally back!"
Xiao Wu excitedly waved her little fists.
"This Boss Xiao or whatever is way too weak. He can't even take a beating."
"You two are still better!"
"Hey, Lin Chuan, what level is your Soul Power now?"
"I want to challenge you! This time, I'll definitely become the boss!"
Lin Chuan looked at this hundred-thousand-year-old Rogue Rabbit and sighed helplessly.
Lin Chuan pointed outside the academy gates.
"Xiao Wu, fighting and killing isn't good."
"We're going to Spirit Hall to collect money. Want to come with us?"
"I heard we get one Gold Soul Coin every month. That can buy lots of carrots."
Xiao Wu's ears instantly perked up, and the fighting spirit in her eyes immediately transformed into appetite.
"Gold Soul Coins? Carrots?"
"I'm going too!"
As for Xiao Chenyu lying on the ground?
Who cared?
Thus, beneath everyone's awestruck gazes, Notting Academy's new three giants—
the lazy boss Lin Chuan, the brother-protecting maniac Tang San, and the violent loli Xiao Wu—
swaggered out through the academy gates, leaving behind three carefree silhouettes.
Spirit Hall in Nuoding City was an enormous domed structure.
In this small border town, it appeared especially grand and sacred.
At that moment, in a corner of the main hall—
Su Yuntao wore a neat Spirit Hall uniform.
He leaned against the counter, chatting and laughing with a curvy female Soul Master.
"Si Si, are you free tonight?"
"I heard a new restaurant opened in town. Their wine is pretty good!"
Su Yuntao wore a charming smile, his gaze wandering over Si Si's body.
Si Si covered her mouth and giggled, her eyes shimmering.
"Oh, Yuntao, you haven't met your quota this month, yet you still have the mood to treat me to dinner?"
Su Yuntao struck a carefree pose.
"Quota? Things like that depend on fate."
"Besides, you know that higher-ups always notice a diligent deacon like me."
"Compared to that, I care more about you!"
Just as Su Yuntao was about to show off his flirting skills—
three children appeared at the entrance to the hall.
Su Yuntao casually swept his gaze in their direction.
The next second, his entire body froze as though he had been struck by lightning.
That young man walking in front, that delicate face—
"Lin Chuan!"
Su Yuntao abruptly shoved away from the counter.
The movement was so forceful that it even knocked over the teacup on top.
"Ah! What are you doing?"
Si Si jumped in fright. Tea splashed onto her skirt, and she immediately cried out in displeasure.
"Su Yuntao! Have you lost your mind?"
Yet Su Yuntao did not pay her the slightest attention.
In his eyes, even if Si Si stripped naked now, she would not be as important as a single strand of Lin Chuan's hair!
That was Innate Full Soul Power!
That was Twin Martial Souls!
That was Su Yuntao's only ticket to being transferred to Spirit City, marrying a beautiful rich woman, and reaching the pinnacle of life!
"Make way, make way!"
Su Yuntao shoved Si Si aside when she blocked his path.
His face was filled with a smile even brighter than the one he would wear upon seeing the Pope.
He jogged all the way over to Lin Chuan.
"Oh! Little Brother Lin Chuan! You're finally here!"
Su Yuntao rubbed his hands together, his voice trembling with excitement.
"I've been waiting for you for days!"
"How is it? Are you here for an advancement assessment? Little Brother Tang San is here too."
Lin Chuan nodded.
He had not expected Su Yuntao to be such a loyal fellow.
The woman behind them was so furious that she stomped her feet and shouted.
"Su Yuntao! You're ignoring me over a few little brats?!"
Without even turning his head, Su Yuntao snorted inwardly.
Women? Women only slow down my rise!
With the results from these two geniuses, what kind of women won't I be able to have in the future?
"Lin Chuan, Tang San, and this little girl, come with me!"
"I'll take you to see Grandmaster Ma Xiunuo!"
Like an escort guarding priceless treasures, Su Yuntao led the three of them toward the second floor.
Second-floor office.
An elderly man with white hair and beard, wearing a kind expression, sat behind a desk reading.
He was Grandmaster Ma Xiunuo of Nuoding City's Spirit Hall.
Su Yuntao's voice arrived before he did. He pushed open the door and strode inside.
"Grandmaster Ma Xiunuo! Wonderful news!"
Ma Xiunuo frowned and put down his book.
"Yuntao, you're not young anymore. Why are you still so rash? What wonderful news?"
