Feng Xiaotian Was No Longer a Simp
Let's go back two years. I remember it was a sunny afternoon.
Feng Xiaotian made himself look presentable, his short silver hair was neatly combed, and his sharp eyes appeared incredibly gentle.
Today he's going to the Blazing Fire Academy to find Huo Wu he fell in love with at first sight!
At the Four Elements Academy Goodwill Event last month, he fell in love with Huo Wu at first sight. For the past month, Huo Wu's image has been constantly on his mind, and he can't forget her at all.
He absolutely must go and properly lick... oops, I mean, properly pursue Huo Wu!
Then someone stopped him and asked him if he would like to become his apprentice.
Feng Xiaotian certainly wouldn't agree. If he had to become an apprentice to someone who wanted to take him on as a disciple, wouldn't that make him, a genius with Innate Full Soul Power, look cheap?
"Sir, let's talk this out. Can you please stop grabbing the back of my collar?" Feng Xiaotian helplessly. He could sense that the person in front of him was much stronger than him, so he didn't resist much.
Feng Wanli said expressionlessly, "Fine, I'll let go if you become my disciple."
Feng Xiaotian: "..."
How presumptuous of me! Do I even know you? You want to take me as your apprentice?!
There was a reason why Feng Wanli took Feng Xiaotian as his apprentice.
Because in his previous life, when he was playing King of King Lanling, he couldn't beat the opposing team's top-ranked Zhong Wuyan who used a hammer, so he had the idea of having Feng Xiaotian, who looked very similar to King Lanling, deal with Tang San.
Hei Ranbai is manipulating Tang San's mentality internally, Feng Xiaotian is manipulating Tang San's mentality externally—isn't that interesting!
Feng Xiaotian was a very high-class person, and since the person in front of him was stronger than him, he did not resist. He was unaware that Feng Wanli was Titled Douluo, so Feng Xiaotian was still refusing in every way.
The higher-ups at the Godwind Academy quickly learned of what had happened at the school.
The dean of the Godwind Academy, who is also Feng Xiaotian's father and the patriarch of the Wind Clan, a level 83 Soul Douluo, personally arrived in a menacing manner.
He only had Feng Xiaotian, a son with Innate Full Soul Power, late in his life, and he always doted on him. As a result, this child was entangled with a madman who wanted to take him as a disciple.
He said angrily, "What kind of madman is this who wants to take my son as his apprentice?"
Could it be someone like Yu Xiaogang, who's just trying to gain fame and fortune?
Feng Wanli expressionless. Seeing that the Wind Clan Leader was about to make a move at the slightest provocation and had even begun to release his Soul Pressure, he directly revealed his nine Soul Rings.
Wind Clan Leader: "..."
The Wind Clan Leader's expression froze for a moment, then immediately changed. He pointed at Feng Xiaotian's nose and scolded, "You unfilial son! This Titled Douluo wants to take you as his disciple, and you're still so unwilling? Are you trying to disgrace our Feng Family?"
Feng Xiaotian: "???"
"Father, that's not what you said just now!" Although Feng Xiaotian didn't say it aloud, his Kamisato conveyed the same sentiment.
However, upon learning that the person before him was Titled Douluo and also possessed a wind-attribute Martial Soul, he did not hesitate to become his disciple.
With such a powerful backer, what are you waiting for if you don't become his apprentice?
Later...
"Feng Xiaotian, what are you trying to do?" Feng Wanli Feng Xiaotian, who was not cultivating diligently but instead wanted to leave Godwind Academy.
Feng Xiaotian smiled awkwardly, "Master, I've been a bit tired from cultivation lately, and I'd like to go to the Blazing Fire Academy next door to spar with Brother Huo Wushuang!"
"You, with Innate Full Soul Power, Top-Tier Mutated Beast Martial Soul, and at only 17 years old, you've already reached Level 39 Soul Elder— " Feng Wanli pointed at Feng Xiaotian, laughing in anger, "I only took you as my disciple because I saw your talent, but guess what I discovered?"
"I've discovered that my dear disciple is deliberately suppressing his cultivation level, just so that Huo Wu from the neighboring Blazing Fire Academy can reach the same level as him! What's worse, my dear disciple is still researching his ridiculous Self-Created Soul Skill, and he doesn't even ask me for help when he doesn't understand something! What, doesn't he think I'm his master?"
"Master, please let me explain!" Feng Xiaotian's scalp tingled; he never expected that his master would know everything about him.
"Explain my ass!" Feng Wanli grabbed Feng Xiaotian and lifted him up like a chick. "Listen to me, if you dare to slack off in your cultivation again and become that Huo Wu's Huo Wu, I'll break your legs!"
Feng Xiaotian, of course, didn't believe it. He didn't believe his master could really break his legs, so he tried to sneak out of the Godwind Academy again.
Feng Xiaotian's gamble paid off; Feng Wanli indeed didn't break his legs... His fists were all aimed at his face, showing absolutely no mercy. He didn't even activate his Martial Soul; he directly Big Slap Feng Xiaotian's face with his large penis. Do you know how much psychological damage a Big Slap can cause to a 17-year-old?
Feng Xiaotian understood. His master wasn't joking; he really dared to break his legs!
After that day, Feng Xiaotian never dared to go looking for Huo Wu again.
He could only devote himself to cultivation.
Seeing that Feng Wanli 'Feng Xiaotian expression gradually softened.
After confirming that Feng Xiaotian did not resent him for breaking his leg, Feng Wanli began to help Feng Xiaotian improve his Self-Created Soul Skill — the Gale Demon Wolf Consecutive Slashes.
The Gale Demon Wolf Consecutive Slashes, to put it simply, is about using the opponent's force against them, constantly accumulating power, and is similar in principle to the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer.
With Feng Wanli's help, Feng Xiaotian no longer had to fumble around alone and quickly perfected the Gale Demon Wolf Thirty-Six Consecutive Slashes.
At the same time, Feng Xiaotian was constantly bombarded with information from Feng Wanli.
"Xiaotian, listen to your teacher. Women, especially proud women like Huo Wu, like strong men. So not only should you not go up to her and try to please her or praise her, but you should also act like you don't care about her!" Feng Wanli said, shaking his head.
Feng Xiaotian asked with a puzzled look, "Master, can I really win over Huo Wu like this?"
"Of course!" Feng Wanli patted Feng Xiaotian on the shoulder. "Let me give you an example. Imagine you're a girl, and there are two boys at the Godwind Academy that you're interested in. Both are very Talent. One spends all his time taking care of you and trying to please you; while the other is always diligently cultivating, usually cold and taciturn towards you, and has defeated you many times. Who do you think you would fall for?"
"Of course it's the latter," Feng Xiaotian said instinctively, then paused for a moment.
"That settles it!" Feng Wanli clapped his hands. "Who in their right mind likes a simp?"
"... It seems so!" Feng Xiaotian felt as if he had opened the door to New World.
Turns out, winning over a girl isn't just about being a master at flattery; you can also put on a sour face and act like a cool, aloof god, letting others take the initiative to win you over!
After two years of dedicated training, Feng Xiaotian's level increased rapidly—the resources that a Titled Douluo can bring are immeasurable.
In the original novel, Feng Xiaotian went from level 44 to level 61 in 5 years, a jump of 17 levels.
He was nearly 30 years old at the time, which is not the best age for Soul Master to cultivate, which shows how strong his Talent was.
