No wonder Boss Xiao had changed so drastically. It definitely had something to do with Chen Qingling.

"Sister Qingling, it looks like you've become famous." Wang Sheng had clearly noticed that everyone in the Canteen had their eyes on Chen Qingling.

"Huh?"

"I'm famous?"

Chen Qingling had no idea what was going on. She kept her head down and ate. Where would she find the time to notice the changes around her?

"Yeah! Sister Qingling! Haven't you noticed that everyone around us is looking at you?"

"Huh?"

Chen Qingling was dumbfounded. She had never expected that she would become the center of attention just by coming to the Canteen for a meal.

Was she really that special?

Why didn't she think so?

Xiao Wu tugged at Chen Qingling's sleeve and muttered softly.

"Sister Qingling... don't you think you're really beautiful?"

"Why don't I think so?"

Chen Qingling felt that she was not as good as people imagined. Her Father had always said that she did not know how to dress herself up.

Yet Xiao Wu was now telling her that she was very beautiful? And that everyone else thought she was wonderful too.

How strange.

Just then, a middle-aged man in black robes with a face full of stubble came down from the second floor of the Canteen. He headed straight for Chen Qingling's table.

When he reached her table, Chen Qingling frowned slightly. She did not like arguing with people during mealtime.

"And you are?"

"I am Yu Xiaogang, a teacher at this academy."

"Oh... what do you need from me?"

When Yu Xiaogang learned that Notting Academy had recruited someone with Innate Full Soul Power, his heart immediately burned with excitement.

After thinking about it all night, he felt it was necessary to take another disciple.

Chen Qingling might be a late bloomer, but there was no denying that she was a once-in-a-century genius!

"Chen Qingling, right? You're a late-blooming genius. I won't beat around the bush—I want to take you as my disciple."

"You?"

Chen Qingling looked Yu Xiaogang up and down, then shook her head.

It was not that she looked down on Yu Xiaogang.

It was simply that not just anyone could become her master!

Chen Qingling was not someone who made such decisions casually.

After all, she already had two masters, and both were Titled Douluo!

Chen Qingling shook her head. "Sorry, I don't need one."

Yu Xiaogang looked confused. "Why?"

"Do you think my strength is too low, that I'm unqualified to teach you?"

Chen Qingling still shook her head. "No, I don't think you're unqualified. I simply don't need one, that's all."

After being rejected again and again, Yu Xiaogang became anxious. "I once wrote the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul. I know how to properly nurture a Soul Master!"

"As long as you become my disciple, I can devote everything I have to making you the most outstanding Soul Master!"

When she heard that the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul had been written by the man before her, Chen Qingling could not help giving Yu Xiaogang a few more looks.

That alone made Yu Xiaogang misunderstand, and he was overjoyed.

"Are you tempted?"

"No."

"The Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul are pretty good. I know every bit of what's in them, and I know what isn't written in them too."

"Besides, the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul aren't all that impressive. They're very basic."

Under Chen Xin's instruction, Chen Qingling had gained a deep understanding of the knowledge surrounding Soul Masters. She no longer needed another master.

What use would more masters be?

They could not solve Chen Qingling's fundamental problem.

That single sentence left Yu Xiaogang completely stunned, like a bolt from the blue had struck his mind.

"What did you say!"

At that moment, Yu Xiaogang flew into a rage out of humiliation.

If they had not been in public, he would have exploded long ago.

What Chen Qingling had just said had completely belittled his painstaking work into nothing.

The Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul weren't impressive?

Young people these days were truly arrogant and ignorant of their own limits!

"Qingling Student, I advise you not to aim too high."

Chen Qingling blinked her large eyes. "I'm not. I'm only telling the truth."

The deeper one's understanding of Soul Master knowledge, the more one would realize just how basic Yu Xiaogang's so-called Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul were.

He had merely compiled old documents into the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul, and now it had become his own work? He even treated it as a treasure?

Wasn't that too laughable?

Chen Qingling could not be bothered with Yu Xiaogang and continued eating on her own.

Nothing was more important than eating.

That very action successfully enraged Yu Xiaogang.

"Qingling Student! Don't go too far!"

"I know I'm not well liked at the academy, and not many people respect me."

"But that is no reason for you to humiliate me like this!"

Chen Qingling raised her head in slight displeasure and looked at the furious Yu Xiaogang.

Xiao Wu beside her could not help snapping at Yu Xiaogang. "What exactly do you want?"

"Sister Qingling already said she doesn't need one. Can you stop bothering her?"

"Just because someone doesn't want you, are you going to force them?"

Yu Xiaogang was left speechless. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out.

At the same time, the surrounding students looked at Yu Xiaogang with contempt.

What kind of person was this?

Could just anyone become a teacher at the academy? He was bringing shame to the profession!

Noticing the looks from the surrounding students, Yu Xiaogang's face burned. He glared viciously at Chen Qingling and the others before slinking out of the Canteen.

He could not stay there another moment.

It was too humiliating!

After the person who had interrupted their meal left, Xiao Wu pouted. "That troublesome guy finally left."

"By the way, Wang Sheng, was that man really a teacher at the academy?"

Faced with Xiao Wu's question, Wang Sheng gave a bitter smile. "I suppose he barely counts..."

"He lives off the academy, but he doesn't teach anyone. Usually, he just acts mysterious."

"That's why no one at the academy really likes him."

"I just didn't expect him to shamelessly try to take Sister Qingling as his disciple. He's clearly after your Innate Full Soul Power so he can become famous through you."

"If he really wanted to prove his theories, wouldn't it be more convincing to just take in any student and see whether he could teach them into a powerful Soul Master?"

Chen Qingling suddenly understood. "No wonder. So he had his eye on my Innate Full Soul Power."

She could not help thinking of her two masters, Chen Xin and Gu Rong.

Both of them were Titled Douluo, renowned powerhouses on the continent. They had taken her in only because they cherished talent.

They were completely different from a hypocrite like Yu Xiaogang.

"Eat properly. Once we're done, we'll head back. Tomorrow is the first day of school."

"Right, right, Sister Qingling is right."

That incident alone let Xiao Wu and the others know that Chen Qingling was someone who took eating very seriously.

After finishing their meal, Chen Qingling and the others headed back in a grand procession.

Xiao Wu walked at the front. When she entered the Dormitory and peered inside, she did not see a single person.

"Huh? Where's Tang San?"
