At this moment, Tang San and Xiao Wu were walking back to the dormitory together. Xiao Wu's petite arms were still holding the bedding they had just bought. Watching Tang San swagger along ahead of her, she could not help speaking up.

"Ah, it's so heavy, Little Third. Can't you help me carry it? You don't know how to dote on a little rabbit at all."

Tang San turned back and shot her an irritated look.

"Give me a break, Xiao Wu. You have Innate Full Soul Power, and you nearly devoured me just now. It's only a small bundle of bedding. It's already generous enough that I bought it for you, and you still call yourself a little rabbit..."

"So what? I am a little rabbit."

Hugging the bedding, Xiao Wu hopped over to Tang San's side and glared fiercely at him again.

Of course, she was not really unable to carry the bedding. She was simply unhappy that Tang San, a boy, would not help her. She was obviously so cute.

Tang San smiled and reached out to stroke Xiao Wu's long hair.

"Fine... fine... you're a little rabbit. Little rabbits should run around more, so carry it properly."

"You..."

Xiao Wu gritted her teeth in anger. Her eyes darted around before she suddenly asked,

"Then can I sleep in your bed?"

"Of course not. Don't even think about it."

Tang San decisively refused Xiao Wu, then walked into the dormitory.

"Hmph... so stingy... you won't even let me sleep there once."

Xiao Wu followed him inside while hugging the bedding. She could not help pouting before tossing the newly bought bedding onto his bed.

"Uh..."

Tang San was left speechless. What did this have to do with being stingy? So Rogue Rabbit Xiao Wu's thoughts really were a little impure. After all, she was not an ordinary girl. Heh heh.

Then Xiao Wu seemed to think of something. She sat down on her little bed, blinked at Tang San with a grin, and said,

"Then once I grow up a little... can I sleep in your bed, Little Third?"

"Ah..."

Seeing Xiao Wu say something like that in front of Wang Sheng and the others, Tang San was shocked once again.

He had not expected this little rabbit, who had started actively chasing after him, to be so bold.

Wang Sheng and the other boys in the dormitory all stared at Xiao Wu, sitting on her little bed, with equally stunned expressions.

Wang Sheng glanced at Tang San enviously and could not help clicking his tongue.

"Xiao Wu-jie, that's way too bold... Third Brother is really amazing."

Xiao Wu's Pink Rabbit Ears twitched. She immediately stood up and shouted,

"Who are you calling bold, Wang Sheng..."

The moment Xiao Wu got up, Wang Sheng jumped in fright and hurriedly forced a smile.

"No... Xiao Wu-jie, I was talking about myself. I've always been very bold, heh heh..."

Xiao Wu snorted before sitting back down, then glared at Tang San again.

"I'm asking you, Little Third. In the future, can I sleep in your..."

"Yes, yes. We'll talk about it later..."

Tang San hurriedly cut Xiao Wu off. He could not let this rabbit continue, or she might say something even dirtier.

With Xiao Wu chasing him so actively, Tang San really could not handle it anymore.

"That's more like it."

Xiao Wu happily swung her beautiful legs, then asked,

"Then when are we going to beat up Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang? That old man smiled at me today, and I still feel sick. I can barely eat."

Tang San thought for a moment before answering,

"There's no need to rush. We're still students. Although that Grandmaster is a disgusting old man, he is the Dean's friend and technically one of the Academy's teachers. If we beat him up while we're at the Academy, it really will be a big deal. We should wait until we leave the Academy to beat him up together, during the holidays..."

"We have to wait until the holidays? Fine, then..."

Xiao Wu felt that Tang San made sense and could only obediently agree.

For the next period of time, life returned to normal training and classes. Although Xiao Wu and Tang San did not share a bed, they grew increasingly close, and they quickly became familiar with the other boys in the dormitory as well.

To Tang San, classes at Notting Academy felt much like elementary school on Earth. At this stage, many children still could not read, so the main focus was on reading and literacy, with only occasional lessons on Soul Power cultivation.

Classes were generally divided by grade, one class per grade. The entire Academy only had a few hundred children, divided into six grades. Tang San and Xiao Wu had both just entered the Academy, so they naturally started in the first grade and were in the same class.

Wang Sheng and the others were in different grades, so Tang San and Xiao Wu usually went to and from class together. Xiao Wu always clung to Tang San and took the initiative to link her arm through his.

Although Tang San wanted Xiao Wu to pursue him, he could not refuse this sort of behavior. Besides, there were no other pretty girls at the Academy, so he could only cuddle with Xiao Wu every day.

A few months passed like this, and then came the scene where Xiao Wu arranged a duel with the Academy boss, Xiao Chenyu.

The difference this time was that Tang San did not participate. He merely watched from afar. Afterward, Xiao Wu defeated Xiao Chenyu with her Waist Bow and became the Academy's publicly acknowledged big sister.

Since the next mission would not begin until two and a half years later, Tang San spent this time cultivating his Soul Power on his own.

The mental formula for the Nine Yang Divine Skill had long since merged into his mind. Through cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Skill, Tang San felt that his progress was far faster than with this world's original cultivation methods.

Douluo Continent's original cultivation method was actually similar to those of other cultivation worlds: drawing in and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, then converting it into one's own Soul Power.

Although one could rapidly increase Soul Power by absorbing powerful soul rings, that was only a temporary shortcut. After absorbing a soul ring, one still had to rely on one's own comprehension to cultivate Soul Power. Especially after reaching level ninety, one needed some insight into the power of heaven and earth before Soul Power could break through again.

Yet by cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Skill, Tang San's Soul Power could become inexhaustible and unceasing, while its purity and strength continuously increased.

In other words, on Douluo Continent, internal energy was Soul Power.

In a martial arts world, cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Skill could make one's internal energy inexhaustible and unceasing.

Then on Douluo Continent, cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Skill could likewise make a cultivator's Soul Power unceasing and endlessly recoverable.

In just over half a year, Tang San's Soul Power had already risen to level nineteen. By then, the first school year had also come to an end.

At the assembly marking the end of the first school year, Tang San saw the disgusting old man Yu Xiaogang again. Yu Xiaogang had actually been invited onto the podium in the Academy square, where he put on airs and began giving a speech to the students below.

Although he did not have a microphone, Yu Xiaogang's voice carried like a fart, allowing every student below to clearly hear that old man's voice.

"Hello, everyone. I am Yu Xiaogang... You may not have heard this name, but you have certainly heard my other title: Grandmaster... That's right, I am Grandmaster, and Grandmaster is me. From now on, you may also call me Master Yu. Next, I will tell you about the Nine Great Theories of Martial Souls that I created. You children must not underestimate my theories. The theories I created once shook the entire Soul Master World, which is how I earned the title of Grandmaster..."

As he said this, Yu Xiaogang proudly raised his old face, then pulled out the book he always carried from his waist and began flipping through it, gesturing wildly as he spoke.

Meanwhile, the students below had already greeted every member of Yu Xiaogang's family with curses. If the Dean had not been standing nearby, someone would probably have rushed up and beaten him until he knelt down and called them daddy.

Tang San remained relatively calm. He had long known that Yu Xiaogang was disgusting, and he could use the Nine Yang Divine Skill to block out his hearing. Wang Sheng and the others beside him, however, had all covered their ears and were quietly cursing Yu Xiaogang's family.

Xiao Wu, beside Tang San, was clutching both her Pink Rabbit Ears and could not help whispering,

"That old man is so shameless. He even calls himself Master Yu. Isn't that disgusting? When are we going to beat him up, Little Third..."

Tang San smiled faintly and whispered back,

"Tomorrow, of course. Tomorrow, the holiday officially begins. Let that old man strut around for one more afternoon. Once he learns that I'm leaving the Academy tomorrow, he'll definitely come pester me again and ask me to become his disciple. Then I'll lure him outside the Academy, and we can beat him up properly."

Hearing Tang San's answer, Xiao Wu finally smiled. She nodded happily.

"Mm, tomorrow, then. We'll beat that old man up properly and stomp on his flat-top haircut..."
