Lesson

In an instant, she released her Martial Soul and flew into the air, widening the distance between herself and Yao Shi and narrowly dodging his fist.

"Oh? You finally decided to use your Martial Soul."

Yao Shi looked up at Wang Dong in the air, his tone mocking.

Because Wang Dong's Martial Soul was too conspicuous, the surrounding area had already filled with newly arrived students, and murmurs of discussion rose from time to time.

"Damn, that's awesome. People are fighting on the first day of school?"

"Wow—it's a handsome guy and a beautiful girl fighting!"

"And that handsome guy's Martial Soul is so beautiful. Could this be the legendary Light Goddess Butterfly?"

"Speaking of which, won't they get expelled for fighting on the first day?"

"That's not the important part, okay? Didn't you see that the pink-blue-haired handsome guy's second Soul Ring is actually a thousand-year one?!"

Wang Dong ignored the chatter around her completely and merely looked down at Yao Shi from the air.

"You managed to force me to use my Martial Soul. I admit you do have the right to be arrogant. Now, it's time to end this."

As soon as Wang Dong finished speaking, her yellow Soul Ring lit up. She shouted, "First Soul Skill, Wing Guillotine—"

Golden, razor-sharp light blades slowly gathered along the edges of the butterfly wings behind her. Then she dove down at high speed, launching a surprise attack at Yao Shi.

"Looks like you really won't behave unless I teach you a lesson."

This should have been nothing more than an ordinary dormitory dispute, something they could have settled with a straightforward physical fight. Yao Shi had tolerated Wang Dong using her Martial Soul, but now she was even using a Soul Skill. What was that supposed to mean?

After Yao Shi spoke, life energy surged around him. His Abundance body slowly emerged, and a pair of antlers grew from his head once again.

"This beautiful girl is actually another freak with one yellow and one purple Soul Ring!"

Upon seeing Yao Shi's Soul Rings, someone among the surrounding students could not help shouting.

Wang Dong flapped her wings as she was about to crash into Yao Shi. If an ordinary Soul Master of the same level were struck by that attack, they might be seriously injured even if they did not die. Yao Shi was naturally unafraid. His self-healing ability was strong, but he still took several steps back, circled behind her, and swiftly summoned several Void Vines that stretched toward Wang Dong.

Wang Dong's Wing Guillotine was indeed incredibly sharp, and the vines reaching toward her were continuously cut apart. But Yao Shi's vines had no special trait other than being numerous—and growing back quickly.

Wang Dong's speed at cutting the vines was nowhere near as fast as they regrew. Before long, her rhythm fell apart, and the vines swiftly bound her up.

Yao Shi gave a low shout. "So what if you can fly? Get down here." Wang Dong, tightly bound by the vines, was violently dragged to the ground.

Looking at Wang Dong lying on the ground with her face exposed, her entire body bound up like a maggot, Yao Shi bent down and leaned closer.

"Well? Do you submit?"

"Submit my ass. Let me go!" Wang Dong snapped furiously, struggling with all her strength, only to find that she could not move at all.

"You still won't admit defeat after losing?" As Yao Shi spoke, he raised his right fist and swung it at Wang Dong's face.

"Ah—"

Wang Dong let out a pained scream. A streak of bright red slowly trickled from her nose. Before she could speak again, Yao Shi's left hand gently touched her face, releasing healing energy and restoring the injury he had just inflicted.

Then Yao Shi said in an indifferent tone, "If you still refuse to submit, I'll punch you once and heal you once. I'll keep repeating that until you give in."

"You... you dare do that? My family won't let you off!" Hearing Yao Shi's words, Wang Dong's face turned slightly pale. She gritted her teeth as she spoke.

But the moment she finished speaking, Yao Shi punched her in the face again. A few seconds later, he healed her, leaving no trace of injury on her face. After that, every time Wang Dong tried to speak, Yao Shi repeated the process.

Even the other students gathered nearby could barely bear to watch. They cried that it was too brutal. He gave her a punch, then gave her a date—he had truly mastered the art of taming someone.

Yao Shi's torment of Wang Dong continued for nearly five minutes. Just as he was about to throw another punch, Wang Dong's sobbing could be heard.

"I-I submit, sob... Please stop hitting me. I really submit. I'm sorry, I know I was wrong."

Although Yao Shi healed her after every punch, so the pain only lasted a few seconds, a few times would have been fine. But with it happening over and over again, Wang Dong could no longer endure it. Tears flowed from her eyes involuntarily, and she began to apologize.

"Oh~ What did you do wrong?" Yao Shi stopped his fist before it could land.

"Sob, sob... I-I shouldn't have acted so arrogantly toward you the moment I got here. I shouldn't have been so high and mighty. I shouldn't have ordered you around so casually. I'm sorry, sob..."

"Will you dare act like this again in the future?"

"I won't, I won't, sob~"

"Can you speak properly from now on?"

"Yes, yes. I'll definitely speak more politely in the future. I'll never be arrogant again, sob~"

After asking those questions, Yao Shi immediately lifted her and slung her over his shoulder. "Knowing your mistakes and correcting them is a great virtue. Remember what you said today. Come on, as your roommate, I'll take you back now." With that, he carried Wang Dong back to the dormitory.

Where Wang Dong had been lying bound on the ground earlier, there was a puddle of some unknown liquid, perhaps sweat or something else.

When the people around them heard Yao Shi say that he was Wang Dong's roommate, they all snapped back to their senses.

"What? Did he just say that the two of them are roommates?"

"Seems like it."

"Then does that mean that beautiful girl is actually a boy?"

"Seems like it."

"Damn, no wonder people used to call him a beauty instead of a beautiful girl. Can guys really be this beautiful? By the way, why did you suddenly move so far away?"

"Stay away from me. I think there's something wrong with you, you gay."

Passerby: "..."

After returning to the dormitory, Yao Shi dispersed the vines wrapped around Wang Dong and gently tossed her onto the floor.

"Hm? What's that smell?"

The moment he released Wang Dong, Yao Shi caught a faint scent with his nose and spoke in confusion.

At his words, Wang Dong's face immediately flushed slightly red. Trembling faintly, she stood up. "I-I'm going to take a shower first. You'd better not..."

Before she could finish, Yao Shi glared at her. Her voice immediately weakened. "I-I hope you won't open the bathroom door."

Only then did Yao Shi smile. "That's more like it. As long as your tone is better, it's not like I can't agree to those conditions you mentioned earlier. Roommates should respect each other, right?"

"R-Right..."

Wang Dong hurriedly answered, grabbed a set of clean clothes, and quickly ran into the bathroom.

Yao Shi did not pay any attention to her behavior.

"I've been tired for so many days. I can finally get some proper rest." After saying that, he immediately lay down on his own bed and closed his eyes.

Inside the bathroom, Wang Dong's long pink-blue hair fell loose. Clearly, because she was going to bathe, she had removed her disguise and returned to her female appearance.

At that moment, she let the hot water from the shower wash over her. One hand caressed her face, while her expression seemed to be savoring something...

What Yao Shi did not know was that his repeated attacks and healing upon Wang Dong had quietly changed something.

God Realm.

"What is going on?! Why has the Soul Imprint on Wutong disappeared?"
