Inside the office of the Nuoding City Branch Hall's Palace Master.

Ao Tian leaned back in the Palace Master's comfortable office chair, watching the respectful, voluptuous beautiful woman standing across the desk from him.

This woman was the Palace Master of the Nuoding City Branch Hall. She looked to be around forty, wore black-rimmed glasses and a fitted professional suit, and appeared exceptionally shrewd and capable.

She poured Ao Tian a cup of tea, then pulled out a Spirit Awakening Proof and an Enrollment Letter for Nuoding Academy from the desk. "Young Master Ao, this is the proof issued for you by the Nuoding City Branch Hall."

Ao Tian's expression remained calm as he nodded slightly.

He first looked at the Spirit Awakening Proof. It bore his name, listed his Martial Soul as the Golden Dragon and his soul power as Innate Full Soul Power, and identified him as a child from Shangshui Village near Nuoding City.

He had requested both the Martial Soul type and Innate Soul Power. Although he did not like drawing attention to himself, he did not want to be overly low-key either. In his view, Innate Level Ten Soul Power was just right.

As for his identity, it had been fabricated. Otherwise, it would have been rather unreasonable for him to attend school in a place like this as a genius from Spirit Hall.

To study at Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy, one first needed an awakening proof issued by the Nuoding City Spirit Hall branch.

With this proof and the Enrollment Letter, Ao Tian would be able to enter Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy without any trouble.

While Ao Tian examined the documents, the Middle-aged Woman was also studying him.

She was deeply astonished. Although the Little Boy before her appeared to be only Six or Seven Years Old, simply sitting there made her feel as though a heavy mountain were pressing down on her heart.

She had originally intended to coax Ao Tian as she would any ordinary child, but the invisible pressure he gave off forced her to abandon that thought.

As expected of a genius from the Papal Palace. Even I, a Soul Ancestor, cannot compare to this bearing, the woman thought.

She decided that she had to build a good relationship with Ao Tian. Perhaps she might soar to great heights in the future...

Ao Tian put down the documents. "Thank you for your trouble, Palace Mistress Li. Now arrange a room for me to rest in."

"Young Master Ao, you are too polite. His Majesty the Pope has already instructed me that I must satisfy any need you may have," the female Palace Master said hurriedly. "Please follow me."

The short Ao Tian followed behind Palace Mistress Li. He was only as tall as her backside, and the sight immediately drew the attention of countless Deacons in the branch hall.

Although Nuoding City's Spirit Hall branch was small, it still had more than a dozen Deacons. They had previously watched the Palace Master solemnly bring Ao Tian back, but they had no idea who he was, and were extremely curious.

Palace Mistress Li suddenly paused, waved toward the crowd, and called, "Sisi, come here."

"Okay." A Girl answered and quickly walked toward Ao Tian.

She looked to be around twenty, tall and voluptuous, her Spirit Hall uniform stretched taut over her figure. Every movement she made attracted the heated gazes of many male Deacons.

So this is Sisi? The woman who has Su Yuntao so utterly smitten? Ao Tian's gaze fell on Sisi as well.

Then his eyes swept across the male Deacons. I wonder which one is Su Yuntao?

Sisi quickly caught up with Palace Mistress Li, then glanced back at Ao Tian. Her gaze settled on his face, and she found it difficult to look away for a long time.

This Little Boy was far too stunning. She had never seen such a good-looking Little Boy before.

"Palace Master, who is he?" Sisi asked softly.

"A genius from the Papal Palace," Palace Mistress Li replied.

Sisi's eyes lit up, and she turned back to take another long look at Ao Tian.

A genius from the Papal Palace was an important figure.

People like them in Nuoding City would likely spend their entire lives stuck in this tiny corner, but if she could latch onto a genius from the Papal Palace...

At that thought, Sisi could not help giving the Palace Master a grateful look.

A moment later, they arrived at a tidied guest room.

"Young Master Ao, Nuoding Academy does not begin until tomorrow. Please rest here tonight."

Ao Tian nodded. "You may leave."

Palace Mistress Li said, "Young Master Ao, this is Miss Sisi from our Nuoding City Branch Hall. If you need anything, you may ask her."

Then she looked at Sisi. "Sisi, Young Master Ao will be in your care."

Sisi smiled, looking somewhat excited. "Don't worry. I'll take good care of Young Master Ao."

As she spoke, her hand reached toward Ao Tian's head. "Little brother, you're so handsome."

Palace Mistress Li was startled and was about to stop her, but it was already too late.

Ao Tian raised his head and looked at the woman, who stood nearly 1.8 meters tall, then gave a cold snort.

The temperature in the entire room plummeted. A terrifying chill invaded the two women's bodies, drilling into their bones and souls.

They discovered that they could not move, and an immense terror rose uncontrollably within them.

It was as though a savage Evil Dragon were staring at them, ready to tear them apart the next moment.

A tiger's backside was not to be touched, and neither was a giant dragon's head.

The chill lasted only half a minute, but the Two Women were already on the verge of collapse. Just as they were about to faint, Ao Tian finally withdrew his killing intent.

"Ha... ha..."

The Two Women crumpled to the floor, gasping for breath. They stared at Ao Tian in lingering terror, as though he were a demon.

"Do you like Su Yuntao?" Ao Tian glanced at Sisi.

Sisi did not know why Ao Tian would ask such a question.

Just as she considered how to answer, her mouth opened against her control. "No, I don't like him. That guy keeps shamelessly pursuing me. I saw that he had some value, so I kept stringing him along. Otherwise, I would have rejected him long ago."

"You may leave," Ao Tian said.

The Two Women felt their bodies relax, only then realizing that their clothes had been soaked through with Cold Sweat.

With her Soul Ancestor cultivation, Palace Mistress Li barely managed to stand, though her legs were still weak.

She pulled Sisi up and forced a smile. "Young Master Ao, please rest. We won't disturb you any longer."

"Oh, and Su Yuntao is quite good. Have him take me to Nuoding Academy to register tomorrow," Ao Tian said.

Palace Mistress Li was startled, but she still smiled. "All right, I'll arrange it."

After the Two Women left, Ao Tian finally sat down.

He had specifically named Su Yuntao because he felt a small measure of sympathy for him.

Whether when he had read the book in his Previous Life or now, he had always felt that the Young Man had it rather hard.

Because Ao Tian had named him this time, Su Yuntao's status in the Nuocheng Martial Soul Hall should rise considerably.

The feeling of going to school really is a little nostalgic...

"Palace Master, that Child..."

"Silence!" Palace Mistress Li rebuked in a low voice. "That is an important figure from the Papal Palace. Remember, never offend him again. Address him as Young Master Ao, or my lord."

She pulled Sisi away at a brisk pace. Only after they had moved far from Ao Tian's room did she visibly relax.

"That man's strength is definitely far greater than mine," Palace Mistress Li said, her face full of shock.

"How is that possible? He's so young!" Sisi cried out.

"There is nothing impossible about it," Palace Mistress Li said coldly. "Do you know that your foolish behavior just now nearly got us both killed?"

Cold Sweat broke out on Sisi again, and she felt a wave of lingering fear.

"Palace Master, I know I was wrong." Sisi lowered her head.

"It's good that you know. Go notify Su Yuntao and have him take Young Master Ao to Nuoding Academy tomorrow morning... No, I'd better tell him myself. Go back first, and remember, do not carelessly reveal Young Master Ao's identity."

With that, Palace Mistress Li hurried away.

"Su Yuntao..." Sisi suddenly felt that Su Yuntao, who had spent every day hovering around her, was so handsome and dashing...

The next day, early morning.

When Ao Tian stepped out of his room, Su Yuntao was already waiting respectfully at the door.

"Good morning, Young Master Ao," Su Yuntao called.
