Even Ling Feng's interest had been piqued.

Seeing that everyone's eyes had fallen on him, the man finally spoke slowly.

"What you may not know is that normal school rules are generally recorded in the student handbook."

"As for these rules that are only posted on the bulletin board and not included in the student handbook..."

"It's because they were only just drafted!"

Hearing this, everyone examined the rules on the bulletin board again and quickly noticed something was off.

Why were all these school rules so strange?

"What does it mean, students are forbidden from dating the cafeteria aunties?"

"What does it mean, Soft-Boned Charm Rabbits are forbidden in the dorms??"

"What does it mean, no sneaking your roommate's sausages in the middle of the night???"

Everyone was baffled by what they saw.

What kind of nonsense was this?!

Even Ling Feng found these absurd school rules somewhat confusing.

He glanced at the freshman seated to his front-left.

The guy wore an expression of someone who had everything under control, as though he knew some inside information.

But his facial control was truly terrible—he looked like he was constipated.

At that moment, the freshman to Ling Feng's front-right also noticed the oddity of the person beside him and tentatively asked, "Bro..."

"Yes, I know." The guy immediately put on a confident pose, waiting expectantly for someone to ask him.

"No, if you really can't hold it in, hurry up and go. Don't crap your pants..."

"..."

"Fuck!"

Seeing that no one was going to ask him, he really couldn't hold back any longer.

"Actually, I know a little about the inside story behind these new school rules..."

"Oh?"

The freshman on the right eagerly played along and pointed at one of the rules.

"Students are forbidden from fishing in Sea God Lake? What kind of rule is that?"

"Well, I heard that a freshman with nothing better to do fished up an upperclassman whose martial soul was a turtle from Sea God Lake."

"No way, that happened?"

"Apparently, that upperclassman wanted to get something nutritious for his girlfriend. Somehow, a rumor spread that the fish raised in Sea God Lake were even more valuable than the academy's most expensive nutrient meals, so he came over to scoop up some fish—then a freshman hooked him..."

"By a freshman, no less? If word gets out, that upperclassman's reputation will be completely ruined!"

The two freshmen in front of Ling Feng chatted and laughed.

Hearing them, Ling Feng couldn't help thinking of someone else with a turtle martial soul.

Hmm... it did sound a little like something he would do. He just didn't know whether it had actually been him.

"Then what about this one... dorm doors must remain tightly shut during cultivation? What's that supposed to mean?"

"That was added yesterday, but..."

Hearing that one of the academy's new rules seemed to concern him, Ling Feng became even more attentive.

He swept his gaze over and saw that Cao Jinxuan looked as though he wanted to say something but held back, apparently not knowing the actual details.

"But what? You don't know the inside story?"

"How could that be?! What could I, Cao Jinxuan, possibly not know!"

Cao Jinxuan immediately retorted.

Hearing a familiar name, Ling Feng promptly looked at Cao Jinxuan.

Like Huo Yuhao and the others, he was a freshman, and one of the core disciples of this year.

He was just a little eccentric.

Ling Feng could not help giving him another look, further cementing that impression.

When everyone's attention once again gathered on him, Cao Jinxuan simply decided to go all in.

"I heard there's a freshman in our year whose martial soul is... that!"

"Which one?"

"It's... that one!"

Cao Jinxuan seemed to greatly enjoy acting like someone who knew everything.

Though he had only half-understood things at first, seeing that everyone around him believed his words gave him even more confidence.

"There was a freshman cultivating in his dorm room. Another freshman wanted to borrow something from him, so he went into his room."

"But while that freshman was cultivating, he wasn't paying attention and directly... peed all over him!"

"Peed?!" The boy on the right clearly found it hard to believe.

It was not just the boy on the right—the expressions on everyone's faces were even more spectacular.

"Hey, brother, is what you're saying true?"

"If this brother's telling the truth, then doesn't that mean one of this year's freshmen has a martial soul that's a body martial soul for that thing?"

"Damn, a body martial soul for that... I don't even dare imagine it..."

Everyone's gazes focused on Cao Jinxuan, waiting for him to give them a definite answer.

"This classmate, if you don't know what really happened, it's best not to talk nonsense."

Ling Feng's face darkened, and he could not help speaking up.

"You think I don't know? What a joke! I was there at the time! That guy almost got it on me!"

Having been questioned, Cao Jinxuan began boasting wildly, describing it so vividly that even Ling Feng, the person involved, nearly started doubting what his martial soul actually was.

"Cao Jinxuan, was it... Heh heh..."

Ling Feng turned and walked out of the dormitory, silently committing Cao Jinxuan's name to memory.

He went alone to the cafeteria. It was still early, and there were only scattered people at each serving window. The window on the far left had no one at all.

Ling Feng was no rich young master, but he could still afford to eat from the school's most expensive window every day.

He bought enough food for roughly four people and packed it back to the dormitory.

As his cultivation rose, Ling Feng's appetite grew every day as well. One meal was nowhere near enough to fill him.

Of course, Ling Feng could not eat enough for four people by himself. The extra was for the others.

"Although I didn't mean to do it yesterday, I did give him quite a scare. And I made him pee his pants in public, where so many people saw..."

The person Ling Feng was referring to was naturally the freshman who had entered his dormitory yesterday.

The teacher on duty had not blamed him, and the cause of the incident was that freshman entering his dormitory without permission.

But Ling Feng still felt somewhat guilty about it.

As he passed the notice board outside the dormitory, Cao Jinxuan and the others had already left, and the crowd gathered around it had been replaced entirely.

"One-two-five..."

Having learned that freshman's dorm room from the teacher on duty yesterday, Ling Feng quickly found the door.

Just as he was about to knock, he heard two people talking inside.

"What nonsense were you spouting outside? Aren't you afraid he'll come looking for you?"

"Th-this isn't entirely my fault! You said that freshman's was huge, and that it was the biggest one you'd ever seen!"

"I was telling the truth! I only glanced at it, but it really was huge! At least twice the size of yours!"

"Bullshit!!!"

Hearing the conversation inside, Ling Feng could not help lowering his head for a look. While feeling awkward, he was also puzzled.

Why did the voice of the person who had finally snapped sound so familiar?

Knock, knock, knock.

Ling Feng lightly knocked on the door. The door opened, and the person who answered was none other than the freshman Ling Feng had scared into wetting himself yesterday.

Upon seeing Ling Feng, the freshman instinctively took two steps back, his gaze unconsciously sweeping up and down Ling Feng's body.

"Who is it? Why's there such a commotion?"

The other person came over at the sound.

Only when Ling Feng saw the other person in the dormitory was the confusion in his heart finally resolved.

Because that other person was none other than Cao Jinxuan, the one who had been talking nonsense in front of the notice board just now!
