Rogue Rabbit

"Is this Dormitory Seven?"

Bai Shu had not waited long before a crisp voice came from outside.

Turning around, Bai Shu saw a little girl with a long scorpion braid standing prettily in the doorway, curiously peering into the room.

Even though Bai Shu had been prepared, he had to admit that this rabbit's appearance was truly deceptive. Anyone unaware of the truth would only think she was a sweet and adorable little girl.

After a brief silence, Wang Sheng was the one who stepped forward.

Wang Sheng was so nervous that he kept pinching his fingers, and he even began to stammer.

"H-hello. This is Dormitory Seven. I'm Dormitory Seven's boss, Wang Sheng."

Seeing Wang Sheng blush with nervousness, Xiao Wu could not help revealing a sweet smile.

"Hello, everyone. My name is Xiao Wu. Wu as in dancing."

Xiao Wu had been one thing when she was not smiling, but that smile instantly left Wang Sheng utterly smitten.

Bai Shu poked him, reminding him of Dormitory Seven's rules. The other students all looked at Wang Sheng as well.

Watching the two act so mysteriously, Xiao Wu tilted her head and asked curiously,

"What is it? Is there something you want to tell me?"

With no other choice, Wang Sheng steeled himself and stammered through an explanation of Dormitory Seven's tradition. At the end, he added,

"Of course, you're a girl, so you don't have to fight if you don't want to. Bai Shu didn't fight either."

But Xiao Wu clearly did not understand Wang Sheng's good intentions. She only caught the keyword "becoming the boss" and asked excitedly,

"Really? Whoever wins gets to be the boss?"

Wang Sheng nodded awkwardly. "Uh... right."

Honestly, he really did not want to fight such a cute girl, especially when she was several years younger than him.

Xiao Wu did not care about any of that. She ran to an empty bed, set down her school uniform, and eagerly stood before Wang Sheng.

"Alright, come on."

Wang Sheng took a deep breath and introduced himself again. "Wang Sheng, Martial Soul: War Tiger." As he spoke, Wang Sheng let out a low growl, and a layer of yellow light rose from his body. He had clearly activated his Martial Soul.

Xiao Wu grew even more excited at the sight. "My Martial Soul is a rabbit."

The next moment, Xiao Wu used Martial Soul Possession. As red light glowed around her, her ears turned into furry rabbit ears, and a yellow Hundred-Year Spirit Ring rose beneath her feet.

Wang Sheng had been about to charge, but the instant he lifted his leg and saw that unbelievable sight, he nearly stumbled and fell to the ground.

"A Spirit Master! And a Spirit Master with a Hundred-Year Spirit Ring!"

Even a city lord's son like Xiao Chenyu only possessed a Ten-Year Spirit Ring. Though that was rather laughable, it also showed just how rare Hundred-Year Spirit Rings were.

Wang Sheng instantly lost all desire to fight. He only felt that he should not have stayed in the dormitory today.

Seeing Wang Sheng's conflicted expression, Xiao Wu asked in confusion,

"Hey, are you fighting or not?"

"Ah... well..."

In the end, Wang Sheng gritted his teeth. "Fight. Come on!"

The moment Xiao Wu heard that, she flashed forward and kicked toward Wang Sheng's side.

The rest of the fight was simple. It could not even be called a fight; it was a completely one-sided crushing.

Wang Sheng did not touch even the corner of Xiao Wu's clothes the entire time. He could only dodge and take hits.

As for Xiao Wu, she did not even need to use her specialty, grappling techniques.

Bai Shu watched speechlessly from the side. He had known Wang Sheng would lose, but he had not expected him to lose so easily.

After comparing them in his mind, Bai Shu felt that if he did not use Spirit Skills, he probably would not be much different from Wang Sheng.

"I lost. From now on, you're Dormitory Seven's boss."

The match ended quickly. Wang Sheng was straightforward about it and did not make any excuses. To him, it was actually better not to be the boss.

After all, if they were talking about who in Dormitory Seven got beaten up by noble students the most, it was definitely him, the boss.

"Don't worry. From now on, Sister Xiao Wu will protect you all. If anyone bullies you, come find me." Xiao Wu proudly flicked her scorpion braid, her tone full of excitement.

She suddenly felt that human society was rather interesting. She had only just arrived and had already gained so many lackeys.

Now that they had settled on a boss, everyone dispersed. Today was the last day of the holiday, and classes would begin tomorrow, so everyone was feeling somewhat lazy.

Seeing everyone else return to their beds, Xiao Wu froze for a moment and blinked her large eyes. She suddenly realized a problem: she had no bedding!

"Um... where do I get bedding...?"

The other Work-Study Students were also taken aback by Xiao Wu's question, but they quickly understood her predicament.

One of them said, "Boss, Work-Study Students bring their own bedding."

Wang Sheng scratched his head and said awkwardly, "How about you use mine first, Boss? It's fine if I sleep without a blanket."

Xiao Wu followed his voice and glanced at Wang Sheng's bed. Seeing the sheet that had practically been slept into the shape of a human body, she said with some distaste, "Don't call me Boss. It makes me sound old. Just call me Sister Xiao Wu from now on."

As she spoke, Xiao Wu's gaze fell on Bai Shu, whose bed had not yet been made.

Bai Shu's quilt was not particularly good, but Old Jack had specially prepared this new bedding for him over the past few months. There were no patches on it, and it was very clean.

Most importantly, the pure life aura emanating from him was far too alluring.

Though the amount was not great, its quality was astonishingly high. It was practically comparable to the Lake of Life at the core of Star Dou Forest.

For Spirit Beasts, this kind of pure life aura offered tremendous benefits to their growth.

Xiao Wu's eyes shifted as she gave Bai Shu a sweet smile, two adorable dimples appearing on her cheeks.

"Classmate, can I share a blanket with you?"

But when Bai Shu heard Xiao Wu's words, a question suddenly occurred to him: Where was Tang San?

In the original story, Tang San had arrived at Dormitory Seven before Xiao Wu.

Even if he had been delayed somewhat because of Bai Shu's influence this time, he should not still be absent by now, right?

Don't tell me Yu Xiaogang kidnapped him.

Bai Shu decided he had to ask around later. Tang San's whereabouts were of vital importance to him; this was his only chance.

Naturally, he could not reveal that now, so he said to Xiao Wu, "Share? Are you sure?"

Xiao Wu said, "I'm sure. Come on, let's push our beds together."

As she spoke, Xiao Wu impatiently began pushing the bed.

"Oh, right. You still haven't told me your name."

Bai Shu watched Xiao Wu's movements with interest, wondering if this Rogue Rabbit was up to something.

"My name is Bai Shu. Like you, I'm a First-Ring Spirit Master."

"Another First-Ring Spirit Master?" The students immediately looked over at Bai Shu in disbelief.

These two new students were actually stronger than even them, the upperclassmen!

But then everyone became excited.

With two First-Ring Spirit Masters backing them up, it would not be so easy for the noble students to bully them in the future.
