"Hello! Is this the Seventh Dormitory?"

The moment he stepped outside, he ran into a little girl in a pink dress.

Her face was round and rosy, her almond-shaped eyes faintly red. Her long black hair was braided into a thick scorpion braid, and her pink cloth dress made her look lively and adorable.

"Hello, my name is Xiao Wu—the Wu from dancing!"

Yun Tian nodded. "This is it. I'm going to eat first."

He then walked around her toward the cafeteria. He was not particularly interested in Xiao Wu. Whatever her attributes were, eating came first. He could check out what was up with this little rabbit after finishing his meal.

Watching Yun Tian leave, Xiao Wu puffed out her cheeks, her large eyes filled with dissatisfaction. What kind of person was that? He did not even know to help her. She was so cute, yet he had no sense of romance at all.

After walking inside, Xiao Wu surveyed the room. From one end to the other, only one bed was neat and clean, with bedding already laid out. As for the one beside it, there were even bloodstains on it.

"Hmph, I'll take this one!"

Xiao Wu had no idea that it was Yun Tian's bed. After all, she had not brought any bedding herself and intended to make do with what was available.

Over at the cafeteria.

After getting his food, Yun Tian spotted Tang San, who had mostly recovered. Tang San was following Yu Xiaogang upstairs.

"Isn't this Master Yu? What, even a freeloader like you gets to come to the second floor?"

Yu Xiaogang was utterly unmoved by Xiao Chenyu's mockery. He was already used to it. In a sense, he really was living off others for free.

But Tang San was not happy. This was his teacher—how could he let someone else humiliate him?

"Shut up! This is my teacher. Say one more insult if you dare!"

"No, Master Yu, it's one thing for you to be useless yourself, but you're dragging others down too? Just like I said, you're some nobody of unknown origin who's been freeloading at Notting Academy for years. If I were the headmaster, you'd have been kicked out long ago."

If one had to say who had the keenest eye in the original story, it was undoubtedly Wang Sheng. But this Xiao Chenyu was also someone who understood things. He knew Gangzi was genuinely useless.

A useless man who could not become a god even after consuming Immortal Herbs and drinking divine blood, only reaching rank ninety-three after cultivating for so long—he was truly trash among trash.

A dense killing intent flashed through Tang San's eyes, and his hand instinctively moved behind his back. This man had no respect for his elders and spewed filth from his mouth. He had already made Tang San's kill list.

Noticing Tang San's gaze, Xiao Chenyu shuddered unconsciously. He had always felt that Tang San was no ordinary person. That look in his eyes was terrifying.

"Hmph, I'm in a good mood this time, so I can't be bothered to argue with a country bumpkin like you! Let's go!"

Xiao Chenyu stopped looking at Tang San and called for his underlings as he prepared to leave.

Because Tang San was Ill-fated, the silver needles he hid behind his back were not concealed very well. Xiao Chenyu merely twisted his neck slightly and saw the three silver needles tucked between Tang San's fingers, each gleaming with a cold light.

"Fuck... Good thing I held back first. This kid isn't normal at all. What kid carries several needles around hidden on his body?"

Startled into a cold sweat, Xiao Chenyu unconsciously quickened his pace. Tang San, however, clearly had no intention of letting him go.

He spun around and fiercely flung out the silver needles. But because they had been clamped between his fingers for too long, sweat had stuck them in place. As a result, the needles did not fly out until Tang San's hand had swung toward Yu Xiaogang.

"Ahhh!"

The three tiny needles accurately pierced Yu Xiaogang's arm. By sheer coincidence, they struck an artery, and three little jets of blood immediately sprayed out.

"Teacher!"

"Bandage me already! What are you standing around for? Hurry up and get a teacher!"

Yu Xiaogang shouted at the people around him. His face grew paler and paler as the blood continued to flow. Even Tang San could not stop it with a cloth, and his expression turned ugly.

"Damn it, I clearly threw them with plenty of force. How did they still get stuck from sweat?"

After being an assassin for so long, this was truly the first time Tang San had made such a low-level mistake.

Xiao Chenyu turned around and watched the scene, his expression turning equally grim. That kid had definitely intended to attack him just now, but had accidentally hurt Yu Xiaogang instead. This was not over. He would tell his city lord father.

Yun Tian had already started eating long ago. Watching this scene made the meal all the more enjoyable. Of course, he still looked away when Gangzi started spraying blood. That was a little disgusting.

The farce in the cafeteria had begun, while Yun Tian finished eating and prepared to return to the Seventh Dormitory to continue cultivating. He planned to ask the headmaster to take him hunting for a Soul Ring tomorrow. As someone with Innate Full Soul Power and a Mutated Martial Soul, he would receive preferential treatment no matter what.

The moment he opened the door, he saw a pink little girl sound asleep on his bed. Yun Tian's face immediately darkened.

But before driving Xiao Wu away, he decided to first see what attributes she had.

[Gold-Soul Bond], [Gold-Thousand-Year Beast Foundation], [Blue Attachment], [Blue Enchanting Bone], [Blue-Bone Physique]. [Gold-Soul Bond: Once she recognizes someone as a person worthy of entrusting herself to, she will spare no cost, even sacrificing herself.] [Gold-Thousand-Year Beast Foundation: A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that has taken human form. Her cultivation talent far surpasses that of ordinary Soul Masters, and she can independently condense Soul Rings.] [Blue Attachment: Her original behavior is often changed because of the person she loves, making her extremely prone to acting on impulse.] [Blue Enchanting Bone: As her human body matures, her appearance will become increasingly beautiful and peerless.] [Blue-Bone Physique: Born with supple muscles and bones, agile and light in movement, with a natural advantage in close-quarters grappling.]

These attributes were practically all related to romance. She was a complete love-struck fool. Heartstrings Attachment? Put bluntly, it was just being blinded by love.

"Get up!"

Yun Tian grabbed Xiao Wu by the back of her neck and lifted her up. How could he allow another person to sleep soundly beside his bed?

"What?!"

Still bleary-eyed, Xiao Wu had not yet realized what was happening when she saw Yun Tian looking at her with utter disgust.

After tossing Xiao Wu onto an empty bed, Yun Tian began tidying his own bed again. He said to her, "This is my bed. If you dare come here again, don't blame me for being rough!"

"I-I didn't know it was yours, and I don't have any bedding either..."

"What the hell does that have to do with me?"

Xiao Wu's face reddened—not from embarrassment, but anger. "How can you be like this? Setting the facts aside, don't you have any fault at all?"

"What did you say?"

Yun Tian asked again uncertainly. Those words sounded awfully familiar. He seemed to have heard them somewhere in his previous life.

The Sky-Piercing Spear appeared in his hand. Carrying the spear, Yun Tian walked step by step toward Xiao Wu, and her gaze gradually cleared.

"What Xiao Wu means is... Xiao Wu was wrong."

Xiao Wu hurriedly admitted her mistake. When Yun Tian summoned his Martial Soul, she had become a little frightened. That Martial Soul looked far from ordinary—thick and hard. If she took a hit from that spear, would she not end up limping when she walked?
