Bai Xiao's battle set the entire venue cheering. Under Meng Shenji's protection, Bai Xiao left like a star.

Meng Shenji used soul power to push aside the female students crowding in from all around, clearing out a space beside Bai Xiao.

Meng Shenji transmitted his voice to him. "Not bad, boy. You've got the look I had when I was young! You're practically my spitting image!"

Bai Xiao: "..."

When it came to having a thick skin, Bai Xiao willingly conceded defeat.

Seeing this, Meng Shenji stopped teasing Bai Xiao. "Boy, from the moment I first saw you, I knew you were extraordinary. I knew you could join the second-year elite class."

Bai Xiao: "..." Was that what you said back then? Bai Xiao was completely baffled.

"Alright, hurry and report to the elite class!" Meng Shenji's brow twitched as he looked at Bai Xiao's rolling eyes, but he held it in and spoke to Bai Xiao with a smile.

Seeing Meng Shenji's expression, Bai Xiao scampered toward the teaching building. After asking a female teacher whose face had turned bright red, Bai Xiao found the second-year elite class.

The moment Bai Xiao pushed open the door and entered, a group of girls' screams frightened him right back outside. Bai Xiao was not usually as thick-skinned or as chuunibyou as he was in battle.

It was like soldiers during wartime: when facing war, they would experience all kinds of excitement and even abnormal behavior. Veteran soldiers could sleep soundly even on a position where cannon fire rained down without end, while new soldiers often found it hard to sleep on the night before battle.

After leaving the classroom, Bai Xiao looked himself over and discovered that his clothes had been burned away in the previous battle, leaving only the shorts on his lower body.

Remembering the burning expressions on the girls' faces when he had entered, Bai Xiao shuddered. Even when operating on ferocious Soul Beasts, he had never felt the slightest fear. He immediately urged his Martial Soul to weave a white shirt and put it on at top speed.

The next second, a group of female students ran out of the classroom. When they saw that Bai Xiao had already gotten dressed, disappointment was plainly written across their faces.

Big sisters, you're only eleven or twelve! Are kids on Douluo Continent all this mature so early? I'm only a seven-year-old boy! Bai Xiao grumbled inwardly.

"Good thing my husband got dressed. Otherwise, those little sluts would have gotten a look at him!" Just as Bai Xiao thought the farce was over, one girl spoke up.

The scene instantly collapsed into chaos. A group of girls actually started fighting, with Bai Xiao caught right in the middle. His head immediately began to throb.

At that moment, a green-haired girl grabbed Bai Xiao's arm and pulled him out of the crowd. Bai Xiao had originally wanted to thank her, but the girl did not stop. She kept dragging Bai Xiao all the way to a seat.

"Miss, are you in that much of a hurry?" Bai Xiao was bewildered.

"Hello. My name is Dugu Yan. My Martial Soul is the Jade-Scaled Snake. I'm eleven years old, my soul power is rank twenty-three, I currently don't have a boyfriend, I can have children, and I don't require a bride price because my grandfather is the Poison Douluo." Dugu Yan spoke with a serious, reserved expression. That was, if one ignored the saliva at the corner of her mouth and the small red patch beneath her upturned nose.

Is this a Douluo Continent matchmaking profile? Bai Xiao complained inwardly.

During the battle and when he entered the classroom, Dugu Yan had practically seen all of Bai Xiao's upper body. Yet Bai Xiao still answered in the gentle voice of a refined young master, "This humble one is Bai Xinghe. Greetings, miss." At that moment, Bai Xiao deeply understood the meaning of the phrase "a beast in fine clothes."

Dugu Yan responded just as seriously, "Can I call you Xinghe?"

"Y-yes." Bai Xiao looked at Dugu Yan's utterly serious face and cursed inwardly.

The girls who had been fighting in a group then realized Bai Xinghe was not among the crowd. They looked around and spotted Bai Xinghe seated beside Dugu Yan.

They all had the same thought: Holy shit. They had originally harbored a few little schemes, intending to take advantage of the crowd to cop a few feels off Bai Xinghe. Yet not only had they failed to get any advantage, someone else had snatched him up whole.

Who could stand for that? "Sisters, charge! Snatch Bai Xinghe back, then divide him among ourselves!" A shrill female voice shouted a riotous slogan, and a group of girls surged toward Bai Xiao and Dugu Yan.

Thud!

A beautiful leg appeared before Bai Xiao's eyes. Dugu Yan had planted one foot on the desk and summoned her Martial Soul, entering the Martial Soul Possession state. Wisps of green poison mist spread from Dugu Yan's hand.

The scene immediately fell silent. Dugu Bo's son had died a year ago, and now Dugu Bo treasured Dugu Yan greatly. Any slight offense against Dugu Yan could provoke the Poison Douluo's furious attack.

Under the threat of death, the girls calmed down. Some even burst into tears and broke down, while others glared angrily at Dugu Yan but did not dare utter a single word.

After doing all that, Dugu Yan merely smiled slightly at Bai Xiao. She lowered the leg she had planted on the desk and slowly sat down, returning to the reserved demeanor she had worn while speaking with Bai Xiao, as though nothing had happened.

(Bai Xiao: Nothing happened, my ass!)
