"Senior Sister Xiao Ya, this is my roommate, Wang Dong. He is a second-ring Soul Grandmaster."
As he spoke, Su Ling turned his head to look at Wang Dong, "Little Dong, this is Tang Ya, our senior sister."
Under Su Ling's introduction, Tang Ya and Wang Dong smiled and nodded at each other in acknowledgment.
At this moment, Tang Ya suddenly thought of something. She leaned close to Su Ling's ear and whispered, "Junior Brother Su, have you considered the matter of joining the Tang Sect yet?"
"Eighty percent," Su Ling said indifferently.
He was definitely going to join the Tang Sect, but not now, and not as a mere disciple—but as the Sect Master.
He intended to build his own power, and the Tang Sect was a solid foundation.
Although it had declined, the Mysterious Heaven Skill and various hidden weapons left behind were still formidable. He planned to replace them.
The rewards unlocked by the system for completing missions were somewhat related to the goddesses themselves. As the Tang Sect Master, the feedback rewards from Tang Ya would surely be related to the Tang Sect.
Tang God King was, to put it bluntly, just a half-baked amateur. He would obtain the complete Tang Sect heritage through the system's rewards from Tang Ya...
Heh, by then, the Tang Sect might not necessarily bear the surname Tang!
Watching Tang Ya whisper into Su Ling's ear, Wang Dong couldn't help but bite down harder on the Thousand-Leaf Tofu with her pearly teeth.
However, when she heard the words "Tang Sect," her entire body jolted, and she exclaimed in surprise, "The Tang Sect?"
Seeing the curiosity on Wang Dong's face, Tang Ya's eyes lit up. She nodded repeatedly and began her sales pitch, "That's right! It's the Tang Sect founded by Lord Sea God ten thousand years ago!"
"And I am the current Sect Master of the Tang Sect! How about it? Are you shocked? Come on, the Tang Sect welcomes you~"
"Alright! I've long heard of the wonders of Tang Sect hidden weapons. Sect Master Tang, I want to join the Tang Sect. Please, you must accept me!"
Wang Dong did not hesitate in the slightest.
"Huh?" Tang Ya was a bit dazed. She hadn't expected the other party to agree so decisively.
And judging by what she said, it seemed she had believed in the Tang Sect since she was a child!?
She had already noticed Wang Dong's extraordinary nature—her essence was restrained, her Soul Power was solid, and she was Su Ling's roommate!
This... was simply a natural-born Tang Sect disciple!!
However, happy as she was, she still had to be honest about the actual situation of the Tang Sect.
"Actually... Junior Brother Wang Dong, including me, there are currently only three people in the Tang Sect. Are you sure you want to join?"
"Sect Master Tang, I am sure!"
"Haha, good! Then this Sect Master announces that from now on, you are the third disciple of my Tang Sect!"
Seeing Wang Dong's unwavering determination, Tang Ya grinned from ear to ear and slammed her hand down heavily on the armrest of her seat.
With a crack, the armrest snapped off.
Just then, a teacher wearing glasses suddenly appeared. He looked at Tang Ya and pointed at the broken armrest, speaking coldly.
"Damaging public facilities of the academy. A fine of 100 Gold Soul Coins."
The smile on Tang Ya's face froze, and she immediately put on a smile that looked worse than crying.
"Um... Teacher, can it be a little cheaper?"
"I'm sorry, those are the academy's regulations. If you cannot afford the compensation, then I will have to take you to the cafeteria to wash dishes."
The bespectacled teacher pushed up his glasses, which reflected a cold glint.
Seeing this, Tang Ya panicked.
If she had known, she wouldn't have been so clumsy. Now she was in trouble; she didn't have that many Gold Soul Coins on hand and couldn't afford the compensation at all!
No! I don't want to be dragged off to wash dishes!
Huo Yuhao was even poorer than her, and as for Wang Dong, they had just met, so she felt too embarrassed to ask.
Thinking of this, Tang Ya had no choice but to look at Su Ling, grabbing his shoulder and putting on a pitiful expression.
"Junior Brother Su, help me out in this crisis!"
Su Ling was caught between laughter and tears. He took 100 Gold Soul Coins from his Sumeru Ring, and even Huo Yuhao couldn't help but chuckle.
Wang Dong was also filled with embarrassment, her toes curling inside her shoes. Come to think of it, this whole incident was caused by her...
"Teacher, I will pay for her. You can count it." Su Ling handed over a small pouch of Gold Soul Coins.
The teacher took it, scanned it quickly, and nodded. He seemed to be a professional.
"Be careful in the future. These are all important facilities of Shrek; you must not damage them again!"
"Yes, yes." Tang Ya nodded repeatedly.
After the teacher left, Tang Ya finally breathed a sigh of relief and immediately rubbed her cheek against Su Ling's arm.
"Hee hee, thank you, Junior Brother Su! Don't worry, Senior Sister will pay you back slowly."
Seeing this, Wang Dong's eyes widened, and a strange feeling rose in her heart. She looked at Su Ling with suspicion.
Being this intimate, are you sure she's just a senior sister??
Watching Tang Ya acting affectionate like a little cat, Su Ling helplessly shook his arm and said, "It was just a small favor. Alright, Senior Sister Xiao Ya, Senior Brother Bei Bei and the others are coming out."
He admitted to feeling a slight flutter in his heart; Tang Ya possessed a faint, elegant fragrance similar to that of Zhang Lexuan.
But unfortunately, Tang Ya was being watched by Thunder Beibei, and he had no desire to invite trouble for himself.
With that kind of time, wouldn't it be better to pursue other goddesses?
Following Su Ling's lead, the group turned their attention toward the arena.
They saw that Thunder Beibei and Xu Sanshi had already taken their positions, and the spectator stands erupted with enthusiastic cheers.
"Thunder Beibei! Thunder Beibei!"
"Wow, Beibei, Thunder Beibei, we love you!!"
"Sanshi, Lord Sanshi is the most handsome and the strongest!!"
"Impenetrable Mysterious Black Tortoise!!"
Listening to the intense cheering all around, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but marvel—was Senior Brother Beibei really this popular?
Just then, Tang Ya's beautiful eyes shifted, and as if thinking of something, she was about to say something to Huo Yuhao.
Suddenly, she noticed Su Ling watching the arena with a serious expression, and she couldn't help but ponder to herself.
Is Junior Su trying to watch the match seriously to learn from the experience?
Tang Ya immediately dismissed her thought.
Forget it, Soul Fighting should be fair and just; she shouldn't let Junior Su get the wrong idea by playing any petty tricks!
Just as Tang Ya was self-reflecting, Su Ling withdrew his gaze. He had confirmed that the Dragon Whisker Needle Tang Ya had inserted earlier had already been removed.
It seemed Beibei had successfully swindled a Mysterious Water Pill.
If things went as expected, Huo Yuhao would soon secretly intervene to help Beibei, causing Xu Sanshi to collapse instantly and be swindled out of another Mysterious Water Pill.
However, what was strange was that Huo Yuhao had not activated his Spirit Eye, and Tang Ya was sitting upright, not giving Beibei any secret signals.
Su Ling felt a bit puzzled and turned his gaze back to the arena.
At this moment, inside the Soul Fighting arena.
Following the referee's command.
Beibei and Xu Sanshi, who had been pretending to glare coldly at each other, instantly activated their Martial Soul Possession, each manifesting the optimal soul ring configuration of two yellow and one purple.
The entire Soul Fighting area immediately fell silent, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the center of the arena.
On Beibei's side, blue lightning flared, his right arm rapidly expanded, and his gentle expression vanished, replaced by a sharp, fierce look as the phantom of a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon coiled behind him.
On the other side, Xu Sanshi was not to be outdone; his body swelled violently, stretching his school uniform to its limit.
His entire aura shifted from playful to steady, and that massive tortoise-shell shield reappeared in his hands.
The two moved their feet slowly, eyes locked on one another, as intense Soul Power surged continuously, creating a clear divide between the blue and black energies on the field.
Seeing that Tang Ya and Huo Yuhao beside him still hadn't made a move, Su Ling became interested and watched the arena intently.
The Soul Power fluctuations of Beibei and Xu Sanshi were quite similar, and both possessed top-tier beast Martial Souls—one focused on offense, the other on defense.
In a clash between the two, without Huo Yuhao's secret assistance, it was truly hard to say whether Beibei would win or lose.
