After reaching the entrance of the Martial Soul Sub-Hall, Lin Fan hesitated for a moment before finally leading Gu Yue Na'er inside.

As the Pope, Bibi Dong probably would not stay in a place like this for long. Lein City was actually a very ordinary city, much like Notting City.

After entering the Martial Soul Sub-Hall, Lin Fan briefly released his martial soul, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, and had his Soul Power Level tested. He did not deliberately reveal his thousand-year soul ring, and the Spirit Hall teacher did not ask any questions. Before long, he was given a Soul Master Badge.

Lin Fan also successfully received one Gold Soul Coin. The Immortal Slaughtering Sword did not attract the Spirit Hall teacher's attention either. The sword looked utterly ordinary, save for some strange patterns on its surface. Other than Lin Fan himself, no one could sense the powerful sword intent within it.

In the eyes of ordinary soul masters on Douluo Continent, any unfamiliar tool martial soul seemed weak. Generally speaking, most Battle Soul Masters possessed beast martial souls. Even in the Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition, the powerful opponents were almost all beast martial souls. Throughout the Soul Master World, soul masters with beast martial souls held a higher status than those with tool martial souls, which generally leaned toward support and control.

With the Gold Soul Coin in hand, Lin Fan happily held Gu Yue Na'er's hand and found a decent restaurant in the city, treating her to fine cuisine.

The various delicacies of Douluo Continent were much like those on Earth. After all, soul masters were still a minority on Douluo Continent, while everyone else continued developing their own fields. By now, Douluo Continent had some rudimentary technology, all of which was known as Soul Guidance Devices.

After eating, Lin Fan began searching for Xiao Wu's whereabouts with Gu Yue Na'er. They visited many secluded places but failed to find Xiao Wu anywhere. He eventually gave up, thinking that Xiao Wu might not have come here. He would be better off going directly to Notting City Elementary Academy to look for her after some time.

At a hotel in the city, Lin Fan and Gu Yue Na'er rested well for the night. When they got up the next day, Lin Fan washed Gu Yue Na'er's face. Looking at her beautiful silver hair, he asked curiously, "Na'er, can you release your martial soul...?"

"Martial soul? I don't know..." Gu Yue Na'er looked at Lin Fan curiously with her beautiful purple eyes.

Lin Fan then taught Gu Yue Na'er to focus her attention and slowly release her martial soul from her hand.

Although Gu Yue Na'er has sealed her own power, as long as she still has a trace of Soul Power, she should be able to release a trace of the Silver Dragon King's aura.

"All right, Brother Xiao Fan, I'll try..." Following Lin Fan's instructions, Gu Yue Na'er extended her slender, tender little hand and began concentrating. After a while, a Silver Dragon Spear truly appeared in her hand.

At the same time, a silver dragon phantom appeared over Gu Yue Na'er's tiny body. A silver mark even emerged on her forehead, making her look incomparably holy and beautiful.

Damn, Lin Fan was stunned. Gu Yue and Na'er had merged. This was the truly beautiful Gu Yue Na'er—beautiful and commanding. At such a young age, she held the Silver Dragon Spear, with a dragon phantom surrounding her.

Combined with Gu Yue Na'er's long silver hair, she looked like a Dragon Girl at that moment—beautiful, pure, and sacred.

"Brother Xiao Fan, I can't hold on anymore..." Gu Yue Na'er's face turned somewhat pale. The next second, the Silver Dragon Spear in her hand vanished, and she collapsed onto the bed.

"Mm, good girl, Na'er. You'll definitely be even more powerful than me in the future. Now I'll teach you how to cultivate..."

After teaching Gu Yue Na'er how to cultivate, Lin Fan stayed at the hotel for several days. Gu Yue Na'er's Soul Power Level reached level nine. Her cultivation speed seemed extraordinarily fast; she had risen a level in only a few days.

Lin Fan also tried sparring with Gu Yue Na'er and discovered that although she had lost her memories, when faced with combat, her body's instincts reacted with astonishing strength. She dodged and attacked with exceptional agility. Without using the Immortal Slaughtering Sword, Lin Fan, with his level-eleven Soul Power, had actually nearly lost to Gu Yue Na'er.

Lin Fan stopped in time and did not continue fighting Gu Yue Na'er. He did not want to hurt her, and he was even more worried about triggering the power sealed within her body.

Gu Yue Na'er was still somewhat fragile. If part of the Silver Dragon King's power within her was awakened, it might cause her internal injuries to flare up again.

"Brother Xiao Fan, I don't know what happened. I shouldn't know how to fight, but... it feels like my body knows how to fight by itself..."

Seeing Lin Fan knocked to the ground, Gu Yue Na'er hurried over, grabbed his hand, and spoke somewhat innocently.

Lin Fan was very satisfied. Smiling, he pinched Gu Yue Na'er's little cheek and said, "It's all right, Na'er. You're very powerful. Your mind just hasn't matured yet. I'll take good care of you..."

"Mm..." Gu Yue Na'er nodded happily.

A week later, Lin Fan took Gu Yue Na'er and left Lein City, traveling by carriage toward Notting City.

Gu Yue Na'er was still level nine, but how much innate Soul Power she had was fundamentally meaningless to her. She already possessed all of the Silver Dragon King's power within her.

Calculating the time, Lin Fan thought that Xiao Wu should have arrived in Notting City by now.

The journey was long, and it took Lin Fan and Gu Yue Na'er a full week to reach Notting City.

Lin Fan also took Gu Yue Na'er to the Martial Soul Sub-Hall in Notting City and obtained a martial soul level certificate. The next day, after Notting City Elementary Academy officially opened, Lin Fan brought Gu Yue Na'er there to enroll.

"I'm sorry, but all of our slots for this year have already been filled. Besides, you don't have enough money for the enrollment fee..."

The female admissions teacher looked Lin Fan and Gu Yue Na'er over. But when she picked up and read their martial soul appraisal papers, her eyes suddenly lit up.

"A level-eleven soul master and a level nine? Shouldn't the two of you have awakened your martial souls only this year?"

"That's right. My sister and I are both six this year..." Seeing hope, Lin Fan hurriedly said, "I'll give you all the money I have left. Can we enroll as Work-Study Students?"

The female admissions teacher considered it. She could not decide on openings for regular students, but arranging two Work-Study Student slots was still within her abilities.

This teacher was named Li Qian, and she was also a kind-hearted young woman. She smiled and said, "All right. You and your sister are both very talented. You shouldn't be unable to attend school just because of tuition fees. I won't take the rest of your money either."

After Li Qian completed Lin Fan and Gu Yue Na'er's enrollment, she even gave them two sets of bedding. Then she sent them to the Seventh Dorm in the dormitory building, telling them to attend the opening ceremony tomorrow.

Lin Fan and Gu Yue Na'er carried the bedding. Having such a small body made Lin Fan feel very unaccustomed, but he still politely smiled at Li Qian and said, "Thank you, Teacher..."

Li Qian smiled faintly as well. "You two, hurry to the dormitory. Teacher will be supervising your studies from now on too..."

Lin Fan was very happy to have met such a kind-hearted young woman. Carrying the bedding with Gu Yue Na'er, he arrived at the Seventh Dorm. The moment he pushed open the door, he saw two children fighting.

One was a girl dressed in pink with rabbit ears, while the other was a little boy in blue.

Lin Fan recognized them at once. This girl was Xiao Wu. As a child, she was even prettier and cuter than she had been in the anime.

The little boy was Tang San. Tang San looked almost exactly like he did in the anime, with simple short hair and a set of blue clothes.

"What's going on this year? Two more Work-Study Students have come..." Wang Sheng said in surprise when he saw Lin Fan and Gu Yue Na'er enter.

At that moment, Xiao Wu and Tang San had already decided the outcome. Tang San was kicked back several steps by Xiao Wu's snow-white, slender leg. With an embarrassed smile on his face, he said, "You won, Xiao Wu. From now on, you're the boss of the Seventh Dorm."

Xiao Wu swung her slender long leg and said proudly, "All right, then from now on, I'm your boss. You all have to call me Sister Xiao Wu..."

"All right, Sister Xiao Wu..." Tang San said helplessly, while several boys nearby also called out, "Sister Xiao Wu."

At this moment, Wang Sheng hurriedly came to Xiao Wu's side and reminded her, "Sister Xiao Wu, look. Two more Work-Study Students have arrived at the door, a boy and a girl. According to the dormitory rules, you need to teach these two newcomers a lesson. Otherwise, they might not listen to you..."

"Huh, two more?" Xiao Wu turned around. Seeing Lin Fan and Gu Yue Na'er, she blinked slightly.

Lin Fan looked at Xiao Wu as well. By now, he had changed all his clothes into something suited to the style of Douluo Continent. It had been nighttime in the Star Dou Great Forest, so he thought Xiao Wu probably would not recognize him.

Sure enough, Xiao Wu's gaze lingered on Lin Fan for only a moment before she curiously looked at Gu Yue Na'er beside him.

Xiao Wu found it strange. She felt something familiar about Gu Yue Na'er, yet it also seemed to be something that made her a little afraid.

But Xiao Wu was not one to admit defeat. Back in the Star Dou Great Forest, she had always been the boss. She did not show the slightest hint of fear and instead said with a grin, "According to the dormitory rules, I'm the boss now. You two have to fight me. If you beat me, you can become the new boss. Which of you two will go first...?"
