Mystic Tiger Bloodline

"The Golden Divine Dragon's source power doesn't have much effect on my Black Dragon Spirit?"

Li Daotian was somewhat surprised.

They were both dragon clan powers. Could there really be a difference?

But with his current strength, he had no way of figuring it out.

Since that was the case, he chose option one.

Yu Xiaogang wanted him to become his disciple so he could control him!

Fine. Then he would make Yu Xiaogang his loyal servant, forever devoted to him.

After all, he was studying alone at Notting College. Having a loyal servant with a decent background by his side would make his school life much easier.

[System, steal option one.]

Li Daotian said silently.

Seeing Li Daotian lower his head and remain motionless, Yu Xiaogang seemed to think that he was considering whether to take him as his master.

He felt that he was about to succeed.

Just then, Yu Xiaogang suddenly felt as though he had lost something.

Yet he could not sense what it was at all.

[Successfully stole Yu Xiaogang's loyalty. You will possess Yu Xiaogang's loyalty forever.]

[Yu Xiaogang will undergo a change and develop loyal servant reactions toward the host.]

The System's voice rang out again.

A smile curled at Li Daotian's lips.

Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang, you wanted to force me to acknowledge you as my master? I'll make you acknowledge me instead!

Li Daotian snorted inwardly.

He waited for Yu Xiaogang's reaction.

Yu Xiaogang's gaze changed drastically in an instant. As he looked at Li Daotian, the thought that Li Daotian was his master immediately surfaced in his mind.

"Thud!"

Yu Xiaogang immediately knelt before Li Daotian and said with utmost humility, "Yu Xiaogang pays respects to Master!"

Li Daotian nodded slightly. This was exactly what he wanted.

Yu Xiaogang wanted him as a disciple, so he would make Yu Xiaogang his servant.

Behind them, the gatekeeper jumped in shock when he saw Yu Xiaogang suddenly kneel, unable to believe his eyes.

"The Grandmaster actually knelt before that brat just to take him as a disciple!"

The gatekeeper said in astonishment.

But he did not dare make a scene.

After thinking it over, he hid behind the door, intending to watch the show.

Li Daotian reached out and patted Yu Xiaogang's buzz cut. "From now on, call me Young Master in front of others. Get up."

"Yes."

Yu Xiaogang stood up at once with a humble expression, then bowed and stood beside Li Daotian.

The gatekeeper rubbed his eyes, feeling that something was off, though he could not say what.

"Next, I need to handle my enrollment procedures. Come with me!"

Li Daotian ordered.

"Young Master need not trouble yourself. This servant can handle them personally for you."

Yu Xiaogang said respectfully.

"Let's go together instead."

Li Daotian still wanted to do it himself and take a look around Notting College while he was at it.

"Yes."

Yu Xiaogang followed behind Li Daotian as they headed toward the academy registration office.

After watching them leave, the gatekeeper thought for a moment before spreading the news anyway.

An hour later.

Li Daotian had completed his enrollment procedures.

With Yu Xiaogang's help, he had even obtained a private dormitory.

His conditions were far better than those of the other children.

After entering the dormitory, Yu Xiaogang helped make the bed and bought daily necessities.

Everything was fully prepared.

Li Daotian could not help but sigh. Having Yu Xiaogang as a loyal servant truly made his path through school much more convenient.

"Gangzi, well done."

Li Daotian praised him.

"Young Master, if you have any other orders, please feel free to give them."

Yu Xiaogang stood bowed before him, his face full of fawning eagerness.

After giving it some thought, Li Daotian really did have another task for Yu Xiaogang.

"Gangzi, do you know about Whale Gum?"

Li Daotian asked.

"Whale Gum... isn't that some kind of aphrodisiac?"

Yu Xiaogang was a little surprised. Could it be that the Young Master needed such a thing at such a young age?

"What aphrodisiac? It's a medicine that can strengthen a Soul Master's physique."

"Can you get some? Preferably Thousand-Year Whale Gum."

Li Daotian curled his lip.

Whale Gum was indeed used as an aphrodisiac by ordinary people, but if Soul Masters used it properly, it could help them withstand Soul Rings of greater age.

Yu Xiaogang thought for a moment. "That won't be a problem. I can have the Spirit Master Academy in Notting City help look for some. There should be news in a few days."

As an elder of Spirit Hall, he could still mobilize some of Spirit Hall's resources.

"Good. Go handle it immediately."

Li Daotian waved his hand.

"Yes, this servant will take his leave."

Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly, turned around, and left the room.

After seeing him leave, Li Daotian inspected the dormitory. Finding no issues, he lay down on the bed. Perhaps he was tired, because he soon fell fast asleep.

Over the next few days, Li Daotian began his student life and adapted to life at the academy.

One day, just after classes ended.

He was surrounded by several upperclassmen.

One of them still looked somewhat childish, but he was huge and nearly 1.7 meters tall. He stared at Li Daotian with an unfriendly gaze.

"You are?"

Li Daotian looked at them with some surprise.

"Kid, are you the one who made the Grandmaster kneel to take you as his disciple?"

The big guy said coldly.

Li Daotian's expression shifted slightly. It seemed that the matter of Yu Xiaogang kneeling before him had spread. Were these guys here to stand up for Yu Xiaogang?

But he could not show weakness.

"That's right."

Li Daotian admitted it.

"Good. Kid, I heard you have innate full Soul Power, so you should be pretty capable. Let's have a spar on the field!"

The big guy pointed at Li Daotian, his gaze carrying a hint of pressure.

"You want to fight me?"

Li Daotian frowned.

"That's right. We're here to avenge the Grandmaster."

"You made the Grandmaster kneel and beg to take you as his disciple. Who do you think you are?"

The big guy glared at Li Daotian angrily.

Li Daotian had not expected Yu Xiaogang to have so many fans at the academy.

However, the other party's Soul Power was clearly higher than his, likely level fifteen or sixteen, perhaps even higher. He should already have his first Soul Ring and Soul Skill.

If they really fought, Li Daotian would definitely be at a disadvantage.

But he was not afraid.

He glanced at the tall, muscular fellow. Perhaps he could do something.

[System, see if there's anything on this person that can be stolen.]

Li Daotian said silently.

[Scanning...]

Seeing that Li Daotian remained silent, the big guy's eyes filled with disdain. "Kid, are you scared?"

Several of his companions began to jeer.

"If you're scared, go apologize to the Grandmaster!"

"And kowtow to us too!"

They had Li Daotian completely figured out.

After all, Li Daotian had studied five or six fewer years than they had. There was no way he could be their match.

[დინ్, detected Mystic Tiger Bloodline on the big guy. It can be stolen. Do you wish to steal it?]

Mystic Tiger Bloodline?

Li Daotian was a little surprised. This big fellow actually possessed the Mystic Tiger Bloodline!

No wonder he was so massive.

He licked his lips. Perhaps this thing could be useful to him.

"Can I ask what your Martial Soul is?"

Li Daotian looked at the big guy.

"My Martial Soul is the Mystic Cat."

The big guy replied proudly.

The Mystic Cat Martial Soul excelled in offense and speed. Once they fought, he would definitely make Li Daotian suffer.

"I see."

Li Daotian understood somewhat.

It seemed that this fellow had failed to make use of his Mystic Tiger Bloodline.

But that Bloodline would belong to him now!

"I think you're unwell today. Come find me another day."

Li Daotian suddenly said with a smile.

"What do you mean?"

The big guy had not quite understood.
