Notting Academy Check-In
Flender's Soul Power-infused blow sent a sharp pain through Ma Hongjun.
He immediately opened his eyes and instinctively clutched his head.
"Who was that? What are you doing?" After speaking, he saw Flender's half-smiling face.
Ma Hongjun jumped in fright.
"Headmaster, did you die too? Why am I seeing you here?" Ma Hongjun asked.
The smile on Flender's face froze.
"Die? I'll make you die! Did that dream turn you stupid, brat? Get up, we're leaving!" Flender snapped irritably.
"Huh! I really didn't die." Ma Hongjun immediately became excited.
But he soon frowned, because his Evil Fire had indeed erupted last night.
Yet he was completely unharmed now.
He even felt that both his mental state and physical condition were quite good. What was going on?
Then his eyes lit up.
Because before he lost consciousness, he seemed to have heard a woman's voice.
Could it have been...?
At that thought, Ma Hongjun's eyes filled with excitement.
He already had a guess.
Flender, watching Ma Hongjun mutter to himself, had black lines all over his face.
Could this little brat have gone stupid?
"Brat, did something happen to you last night?" Flender asked directly.
Flender's question also brought Ma Hongjun back to his senses.
He immediately stopped thinking about it, because now was not the time.
"Um, Teacher Flender, I'm fine," Ma Hongjun said directly.
Flender froze.
Because this brat had called him teacher.
Had he heard wrong?
"What did you just call me?" Flender asked.
"Teacher. Is there a problem?" Ma Hongjun asked in confusion.
"You're willing to acknowledge me as your master?" Flender said excitedly.
"I'm from Shrek Academy, so of course I should call you teacher. That's different from taking you as my master, okay?" Ma Hongjun said.
Flender paused, immediately feeling somewhat disappointed.
He then prepared to explain the benefits of taking him as a master again.
But clearly, Ma Hongjun had no intention of becoming his disciple.
He had not wanted to before, much less now that he knew Irene might have helped him resolve his Evil Fire last night. He was even less willing to become Flender's disciple now.
As for how Big Sister Irene had helped him resolve it, Ma Hongjun's face flushed with shyness.
Could it be...?
Wait, that should be impossible.
But it was not entirely impossible either.
Ma Hongjun was a little distracted at that moment.
He was wondering how Big Sister had helped him resolve his Evil Fire.
But after thinking about it briefly, he stopped.
It would be better to ask about it next time.
At that thought, Ma Hongjun eagerly anticipated their next meeting.
"Teacher Flender, are we leaving?" Ma Hongjun asked directly.
Seeing that Ma Hongjun clearly did not want to say more about the matter,
Flender was somewhat disappointed, but he also knew this would take time.
He then said directly, "Yes, brat, it's time to go. Did you have a wet dream last night? The moment I came in, I heard you giggling like an idiot."
Flender looked at Ma Hongjun with contempt.
Ma Hongjun's expression stiffened.
Had he really lost his composure that badly just now?
But when he thought of that dream,
if it had been real, that would have been wonderful. The corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up again.
Naturally, Flender noticed, and his expression became strange. Had this brat really had a wet dream?
Could someone so young even manage that?
He glanced at Ma Hongjun's lower body.
Ma Hongjun naturally noticed Flender's gaze.
He immediately felt humiliated.
"Teacher Flender, what kind of look is that?" Ma Hongjun said directly, displeasure in his tone.
Flender was also a little embarrassed upon hearing that. He then said, "Nothing."
Ma Hongjun did not pursue the matter further.
Just like that, they set off once more.
Half a month later, Ma Hongjun smiled as he looked at the three words "Notting City" above the city gate.
After half a month of travel, they had finally arrived at Notting City.
"Teacher Flender, I have a feeling that you'll meet someone you know here," Ma Hongjun said directly.
Flender paused, then looked at Ma Hongjun in confusion.
Meet someone he knew here? How could that be possible?
How could he possibly have acquaintances in a place like this?
Ma Hongjun did not explain further.
He would understand once he saw them.
"Now that we've arrived in Notting City, what are you going to do next?" Flender asked directly.
"I'm going to a place called Notting Academy to meet someone," Ma Hongjun said without wasting words.
Notting Academy? What was he going there for? Flender was puzzled.
This brat was strange in every way.
But he had already accompanied him all the way here.
He was merely asking.
Were strange things involving this brat really so rare?
The two then asked a passerby for directions to Notting Academy.
Less than a quarter of an hour later,
they arrived at the so-called Notting Academy.
When Flender revealed his identity as a Soul Master and said that he wished to see the headmaster,
the gatekeeper did not stop them in the slightest. Such was the privilege of Soul Masters.
Ma Hongjun thus entered Notting Academy as he had wished.
System: "Detected that the Host has arrived at Notting Academy. Would you like to check in now?"
Hearing the system's voice, a faint smile appeared on Ma Hongjun's face.
"Check in," Ma Hongjun said directly.
System: "Congratulations, Host. Check-in successful. You have obtained two Soul-Enhancing Grass plants, one Thousand-Year Soul Ring, one Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone, one Soul Power Level Advancement Card, one Advanced Combat Experience Card, and three thousand Gold Soul Coins."
A smile remained on Ma Hongjun's face.
The Soul-Enhancing Grass was for Irene.
As for the Spirit Bone and Soul Ring, he would use them after comparing them later.
As for the Soul Power Level Advancement Card, as its name implied, it was used to raise one's Soul Power Level.
Soul Power Level Advancement Card: Raises the Host's Soul Power Level by one rank, ignoring all bottlenecks and applicable at any level.
Seeing those attributes, Ma Hongjun was incredibly excited.
This card's effect was truly excellent.
Looks like I can't use it now, Ma Hongjun thought.
Using it now would only raise his Soul Power by one level. That would simply be a waste.
As for the Advanced Combat Experience Card, it was used to increase Ma Hongjun's actual combat experience.
That was also a very good item.
Just then, the system's voice rang out again: "Congratulations, Host. A new check-in location has been refreshed. Please proceed to the Heaven Dou Imperial Capital to check in."
Ma Hongjun was stunned.
The Heaven Dou Imperial Capital?
Didn't that place have the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well?
It seemed the system was quite considerate.
Ma Hongjun, who had previously held no thoughts about the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, now became tempted.
But he still needed to consider this matter carefully.
Soon, under a teacher's guidance, Flender and Ma Hongjun arrived directly outside an office.
The headmaster of Notting Academy was already waiting there.
When he saw Flender and Ma Hongjun, a smile appeared on his face.
