Xiao Wu, as in Street Dance

Everyone looked toward the sound and saw a delicate little girl skipping into the room.

"My name is Xiao Wu—Wu, as in dancing!"

All the boys stared wide-eyed. Only Bai Yu had a flash of inspiration and changed "dancing" to "street dance."

Suddenly, Xiao Wu did a forward flip, planted her head on the ground, and pointed her legs toward the sky, leaving everyone dumbfounded.

Then Xiao Wu began spinning with her head as the axis, rolled over, and followed it up with a Thomas Flare!

"Hello, let me say it again. My name is Xiao Wu—Wu, as in street dance!"

Everyone: "???"

The girl was incredibly flexible, but wasn't it a little too outgoing to start dancing the moment they met?

Bai Yu held back a laugh.

There was free entertainment to watch. Why not watch it?

With Xiao Wu's flexibility, she would probably make a very good RBQ.

And honestly, before she became a tool, Xiao Wu was loyal and courageous. As a partner or companion, she was definitely a great choice.

What was more, she had Soul Rings and soul bones, as well as two powerful little brothers. My Myriad Souls Banner would need Soul Refining in the future. If I built a good relationship with her and sweet-talked those two soul beasts, then the Star Dou Great Forest would become my sacred ground for Soul Refining!

Bai Yu sank into thought. After Xiao Wu finished her dance, she suddenly noticed Tang San lying unconscious on the ground and asked in surprise:

"What happened here?"

Wang Sheng explained:

"This guy is a Nantong. He actually licked my hand just now. It was disgusting, and everyone couldn't stand it anymore, so we beat him up."

Xiao Wu: "???"

"Are you crazy?"

One man licking another man's hand?

I never saw anything like this in the Star Dou Great Forest. Do you humans really play this wild?

Wang Sheng was speechless. You were the one who came in and started street dancing—like you were any more normal?

Why did all this year's Work-Study Students, aside from Bai Yu, seem like their brains had gone haywire?

Bai Yu coughed lightly and said:

"We were fighting over the position of Seventh Dormitory boss just now. Judging by the result, Tang San should have won."

"What?"

Wang Sheng froze. Tang San had been beaten flat on the ground, and he won?

At that moment, one of Wang Sheng's henchmen beside him said:

"Boss, Tang San really did knock you down just now. If you refuse to admit it, what if he gets up, licks you, and beats you again?"

Wang Sheng shuddered all over upon hearing that and hurriedly said:

"Yes, yes, yes! I lost just now!"

Tang San had truly scared him stiff!

After speaking, Wang Sheng looked at Xiao Wu and urged:

"Every newcomer has to fight the boss. That's the rule of Seventh Dormitory. If you win, you'll be the boss!"

A sly glint flashed through Xiao Wu's eyes as she said:

"Really? But Tang San has already fainted. How does that count?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Tang San slowly woke up.

Wang Sheng and the others all backed away. Only Bai Yu crouched beside him and asked:

"Little San, how are you?"

Tang San looked around at Wang Sheng and the others, then said in a low voice:

"My whole body hurts right now!"

He had probably come to hate this group of people. Bai Yu said:

"You knocked Wang Sheng down just now, so you're the boss of Seventh Dormitory now. She's new and wants to fight you for the boss's position. Are you fighting or not? If not, just surrender!"

Tang San looked in the direction Bai Yu was pointing, and his eyes immediately went wide!

He had already thought of their children's names!

Bai Yu waved a hand in front of his eyes and asked:

"Little San, say something!"

Only then did Tang San come back to his senses. He thought, it would be nice if he could have some physical contact with this girl.

So he nodded. He would fight!

But the moment he moved, pain shot through his entire body, making him bare his teeth in agony.

Bai Yu smiled.

"It's fine. Heal your injuries—I'll use the Human Emperor Banner to speed things up. They're just superficial wounds; you'll recover soon."

As he spoke, Bai Yu summoned the Human Emperor Banner. Its holy aura startled everyone.

Xiao Wu seemed to feel a mother's warmth and asked in shock, "Bai Yu, is this your martial soul?"

Bai Yu nodded.

"Yes. I'm in the Support System. My martial soul can accelerate cultivation and healing within a certain range."

Everyone was stunned. This martial soul was that powerful?!

Tang San said nothing, rapidly healing beneath Bai Yu's Human Emperor Banner.

Xiao Wu could not help asking, "Bai Yu, maintaining your martial soul like this must consume quite a bit of Soul Power, right? Once Tang San recovers, won't you be completely drained?"

What did she mean, completely drained? Still, she had a point. It was fine to do this when there was no danger, but he could not keep doing it in the future. He would have to rely on the Myriad Souls Banner's Soul Refining to convert worthless souls into Soul Power and replenish himself.

Bai Yu smiled.

"It's fine. Tang San is my brother!"

Tang San felt a surge of gratitude. Xiao Yu really was loyal!

Xiao Wu was somewhat surprised as well. Bai Yu was this loyal? I admire him!

After a while, Tang San had mostly recovered. He stood up and put on a polite, gentlemanly air before Xiao Wu.

"Please."

Xiao Wu did not stand on ceremony. She immediately tried to close in, but Tang San had the Mysterious Heaven Skill, so she could not gain much of an advantage in close combat for the moment. However, she was extremely flexible. Tang San could not catch her, and she instead ran circles around him until he looked rather disheveled.

At that moment, a system window flashed before Bai Yu's eyes.

[Plot: Xiao Wu and Tang San fight. Xiao Wu ultimately defeats Tang San, and Tang San acknowledges Xiao Wu as the boss.]

Bai Yu changed "boss" to "Mom."

After Tang San and Xiao Wu fought for a while, Xiao Wu gained a slight upper hand. She looked at Tang San smugly.

"I won. Call me boss so I can hear it!"

Tang San had fought Xiao Wu in close quarters for quite some time and felt that even losing had been worth it. He was therefore ready to call her boss to make Xiao Wu happy, making it easier for him to pursue her.

Tang San took a deep breath. With a solemn expression, he spoke from the bottom of his heart.

"Mom!"

Xiao Wu said, "Yes, that's right. Wait, what did you call me?"

Xiao Wu froze.

Wang Sheng and the others were dumbfounded. What? Had they heard wrong?

Tang San wore an affectionate expression, as though Xiao Wu were his mother whom he had been separated from for many years.

"You beat me. I acknowledge you as my Mom now!"

Xiao Wu trembled all over and involuntarily took two steps back, her face filled with terror.

Th-this was the power of Nantong? So, so disgusting!

I-I don't want to be a mom!

Seeing Xiao Wu retreat, Tang San asked with concern, "Mom, what's wrong? Why do you look so frightened? How about I give you a massage? All these years, I've never had the chance to be filial to you."

As he spoke, Tang San dropped to his knees with a thud and burst into tears.

"Mom, do you know? You were gone the moment I was born. All these years, I grew up following Father. Ever since I was little, I longed for a mother who could love me. Mom, you've finally come back!"

"Mom, after you left, Father gave up on himself and wallowed in self-pity every day. I diligently took care of him. Do you know how hard that was for me?"

"Mom, I've never had the chance to be filial to you. Today, our mother-son reunion has finally come. Let me give you a massage!"

As Tang San spoke, he reached his groping hand toward Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu cursed loudly.

"Get lost, you disgusting pervert!"

She slapped him across the face, sending the completely unprepared Tang San flying. He fainted again on the spot.

Looking at the unconscious Tang San, Xiao Wu said viciously, "I-I don't want to suddenly become a mom!"

She looked at Bai Yu and asked, "He's your brother?"

Bai Yu shrugged.

"He's a rather emotional person. I may not understand it, but I respect his choice. By the way, since you won, you're the boss of the Seventh Dormitory now, right, Wang Sheng?"

Wang Sheng jolted and nodded frantically.

"Yes, yes, yes, Sister Xiao Wu! From now on, you're the boss of Seventh Dormitory!"

"Greetings, Sister Xiao Wu!"

Everyone hurriedly shouted, and Xiao Wu was indeed distracted. With her hands on her hips, she said smugly:

"From now on, Sister Xiao Wu will look after you!"

Bai Yu watched them like children playing house and couldn't help but laugh.
