After a while, Li Daotian felt that his Soul Power had finally broken through.
His Soul Power should have reached level 14.
At this rate, breaking through to level 30 by graduation would not be a problem.
"Xiao Wu, the fruit you brought me really was excellent."
"Come here. As a reward, let me give you a kiss!"
Li Daotian opened his eyes and beckoned Xiao Wu over.
Xiao Wu had been watching nearby. Her little face was slightly flushed with shyness, but she was even more delighted. She immediately pressed her soft, rosy cheek against his.
Li Daotian kissed it. Her plump little cheek was quite soft and moist.
"Brother Tian, you've finally caught on. This is how you have to coax girls."
Xiao Wu said this with the air of a teacher pleased with a promising student.
"Enough. What kind of girl goes around asking for kisses on the cheek all the time?"
Li Daotian waved his hand, regaining some of his composure.
"Hmph, it's only a kiss on the cheek. We'll be kissing on the lips later!"
Xiao Wu curled her lips, looking like a little hooligan as she threw an arm around Li Daotian's neck.
Just then, the door was suddenly pushed open.
A figure walked in. It was none other than Yu Xiaogang.
He glanced at the intimate pair in the room and gave a light cough.
Kids these days really were maturing early.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu shyly pulled away from Li Daotian.
"Gangzi, why did you come in without knocking?"
Li Daotian asked with some dissatisfaction.
Yu Xiaogang said awkwardly, "I thought only Young Master was here!"
Not wanting to dwell on the matter, Li Daotian asked Yu Xiaogang, "What brings you here?"
Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang reached into his robes, took out a box, and offered it to him. "Young Master, this is a martial skill I found recently. It may be of some help to your cultivation!"
"A martial skill?"
Li Daotian was somewhat surprised.
In this world, some Soul Masters took a different path. While cultivating Soul Power, they also trained in martial skills.
However, most martial skills were not very good.
But since Yu Xiaogang was being so formal about it, this martial skill should not be too bad.
He took the box, opened it, and found a book with a yellow cover inside.
Li Daotian took it out and looked at it. The martial skill was called Overbearing Spear.
"Young Master, this is a martial skill collected by Spirit Hall. It was created with painstaking effort by an eccentric Titled Douluo to temper his descendants. Once mastered, it can unleash tremendous power!"
Yu Xiaogang introduced it.
"Alright, I'll study it when I have time. It can make up for some of my shortcomings in battle."
Li Daotian nodded slightly.
"By the way, Young Master, what level is your Soul Power now?"
After considering it for a moment, Yu Xiaogang asked again.
"Level 14, I think."
Li Daotian did not hide it.
"Good. You broke through four levels in just over one semester. Breaking through level 30 by graduation will be no problem!"
"Young Master truly is a genius!"
Yu Xiaogang exclaimed.
At this rate, Li Daotian had the qualifications to become a god!
As they spoke, there was a knock at the door.
"Who is it? Come in."
Li Daotian looked toward the door as he spoke.
When the door opened, Principal Su entered. He wore a smile as he looked around the room, then said in some surprise, "Grandmaster is here too!"
"Principal."
Li Daotian and Xiao Wu both greeted Principal Su politely.
"Daotian, no need for such formalities."
"It's only been one holiday, and you've grown taller again."
Principal Su examined Li Daotian with a gratified look in his eyes.
"Principal, please have a seat."
Li Daotian brought over a chair, intending to offer it to Principal Su.
"No, I have something to discuss with you."
Principal Su waved his hand lightly, though his expression became more serious.
"Please go ahead, Principal."
Li Daotian had long known that Principal Su would not come without a reason.
He simply had not expected there to be business so soon after the school term began.
"Here's the situation. In ten days, a visiting study group from the neighboring city will be coming to our Notting College. I hear they are all geniuses from their school!"
"To show our sincerity, our college must also prepare a team. There will definitely be some sparring when the time comes."
"Daotian, I would like you to join. Are you willing?"
Principal Su looked at Li Daotian as he asked.
Although Li Daotian was only a first-year student and younger than the upperclassmen, his strength and talent were obvious.
He was a rare choice.
Li Daotian immediately understood what the Principal meant.
What visiting study group? It was simply a contest of strength between two schools.
Winning would preserve their reputation and bring them honor. Losing would mean humiliating themselves badly.
"Alright, I agree!"
Naturally, Li Daotian would not refuse Principal Su's goodwill. Besides, he also wanted to grow through experience.
He wanted to see what those people his age were really capable of.
"Good, Daotian. You truly haven't disappointed me!"
"Also, Daotian, what level is your Soul Power?"
Principal Su nodded in satisfaction, unable to resist asking again.
"Level 14!"
Li Daotian answered once more.
"What... level 14!"
Principal Su could hardly believe it. He stared at Li Daotian in astonishment.
At Li Daotian's age, reaching level 14 Soul Power made him an absolute top-tier genius!
Only certain freaks within Spirit Hall could achieve such a thing!
If this continued, Li Daotian might become a Soul Ancestor in his teens!
His strength would not be far from Principal Su's own.
"Good child, you will surely become the pride of our Notting College in the future!"
Principal Su said emotionally.
Li Daotian smiled faintly, but then said thoughtfully, "Principal, there's something I'd like to ask. Who else is on this team?"
Principal Su replied, "Aside from you, several outstanding upperclassmen have also been selected."
"Why? Do you have something in mind?"
Principal Su looked at Li Daotian.
"I want Xiao Wu to join as well!"
Li Daotian tugged Xiao Wu beside him.
He knew Xiao Wu's strength very well. If she joined, she would definitely be able to help him!
"Xiao Wu?"
Principal Su looked toward Xiao Wu. He had noticed this bright-eyed little girl earlier and had been rather curious.
Could this little girl be a genius too?
"Principal, please agree. I definitely won't bring shame upon the college!"
Xiao Wu said seriously, her hands held behind her back.
"Xiao Wu, what level is your Soul Power?"
Principal Su hesitated somewhat.
"About the same as Brother Tian's."
Xiao Wu concealed the truth somewhat.
She was a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast. Upon reaching level 10, she had automatically gained her own Soul Ring, and her Soul Power also grew quickly.
At present, her Soul Power was roughly on par with Li Daotian's.
"This..."
Principal Su was once again astonished. He had not expected there to be another remarkable little girl at Notting College.
"Alright, you are permitted to join."
"Tomorrow after school, come gather at the training ground. I will personally explain the situation to all of you."
Principal Su agreed.
"Thank you, Principal!"
Xiao Wu said happily.
"Don't celebrate too early. The opponents you'll face this time are not weak, so you must work hard."
"Alright, I still need to find the others, so I'll be leaving first."
After speaking, Principal Su waved to them, then turned and walked out the door.
