Tang Hao fell silent, lowering his gaze to glance at his arm that had yet to fully heal.

Then he thought of his inexplicably vanished soul ring.

To think that he, the dignified Clear Sky Douluo, was the youngest Titled Douluo on the entire continent.

Yet his son had actually been expelled from the academy for peeking at someone bathing.

He could only wonder if he had simply been having a bit of terrible luck lately.

Tang Hao desperately wanted to go and see what on earth Tang San was doing right now.

Just you wait, you little rascal. Once my injuries heal, see if I don't break your legs!

However, before that, I still need to sort out my own soul ring first!

Even though he wanted to rush over immediately and interrogate Tang San about what was going on.

Yet as urgent as that matter was, it still took second place to his own soul ring.

He didn't really care that Tang San had been expelled; after all, the things taught at that academy were all dispensable anyway.

With Yu Xiaogang around, he felt it didn't matter whether Tang San attended school or not.

Nighttime.

Dorm Seven.

Wang Sheng sighed. "Sigh, even though that kid Tang San is usually quite grating, now that he's gone, I somehow feel a bit unaccustomed to it."

"What's there to get unaccustomed to? He grinds his teeth every single night and ruins my sleep. Isn't it much better now that he's gone?"

Xiao Wu poked her head out from under the quilt and yawned.

Hearing this, Su Mo was left somewhat speechless. You sleep badly? You sleep like a dead pig every single day, impossible to wake up even when called, and you're going to claim you sleep badly?

"Su Mo, don't you think so?" Xiao Wu poked Su Mo in the waist again.

Su Mo leaned against the wall and casually offered a perfunctory reply. "Ah, right, right, right."

Tang San leaving or staying made no real difference to him.

Anyway, as long as Tang San didn't provoke him, he didn't care either way.

Even if Tang San did provoke him, it wouldn't matter-he wasn't afraid of Tang San at all.

The only person he found troublesome was actually Tang Hao.

Now that Tang San had left, he felt it was just right, as this meant Tang Hao should be leaving with him as well.

He just didn't know whether Tang Hao had figured out Xiao Wu's true identity.

That was the single point Su Mo cared about the most.

However, since Tang Hao hadn't made a move yet, he probably hadn't discovered it, right?

Su Mo wasn't entirely certain, and for now, he could only take things one step at a time.

Seeing how perfunctory Su Mo was being, Xiao Wu said with a trace of dissatisfaction, "What do you mean by that, Su Mo? Could it be that you're also reluctant to see Tang San go?"

Su Mo was startled. "I'm reluctant to see Tang San go?! Xiao Wu, don't you think your words are utterly speechless?"

Xiao Wu giggled and hugged Su Mo's arm. "That settles it then. Right, Su Mo, are the Gacha Coins ready?"

"So many days have already passed, shouldn't they be ready by now!"

Xiao Wu was entirely fixated on gacha rolling; as for Tang San, he had already been cast to the back of her mind.

Su Mo didn't speak, summoning his Martial Soul instead.

Immediately afterward, a coin dropped into his hand.

He looked at Xiao Wu with a surprised expression. "No, Xiao Wu, how on earth did you calculate that?"

Xiao Wu tossed her head. "Well of course. Sister Xiao Wu is exceptionally formidable, you know."

Gazing at the Gacha Coin in Su Mo's hand, Xiao Wu lunged forward directly, straddling Su Mo's waist.

"Su Mo, give it to me quick! I want to draw!"

Su Mo pulled his hand back, dodging the little hands reaching out to grab the Gacha Coin. "Hold on, I want to draw this one myself."

Xiao Wu pouted, complaining with dissatisfaction, "Ah? Why? Didn't we agree beforehand that I get to do all the draws from now on? You promised last time, how can you go back on your word!"

Su Mo said righteously, "Last time was last time. Besides, you've already drawn twice, and I've only ever drawn once myself. I'm drawing this time, that's the only way it's fair!"

Su Mo never expected that one day he would have to negotiate with Xiao Wu over his own Martial Soul.

It wasn't really that he cared so much about who got to draw, but he wanted to experience the thrill himself, too.

When it came to lottery draws, watching someone else do it could never compare to the satisfaction of doing it yourself.

Xiao Wu placed her hands on her hips, speaking as if it were a matter of course, "Fair or no fair, you promised Sister Xiao Wu that all gachas from then on would go to me!"

"You can't go back on your word! Besides, you saw for yourself just how incredible Sister Xiao Wu's luck was the first two times!"

"Uh... what you're saying makes a lot of sense..." Su Mo was somewhat speechless.

"Well of course, hand it over!" Xiao Wu proudly lifted her chin and reached out to snatch the Gacha Coin again.

Su Mo raised his arm, using his other hand to press directly down on Xiao Wu's head.

"I said I'm not giving it, and I'm not giving it!"

Xiao Wu blinked her large eyes and said timidly, "Give it to me, Brother Su Mo."

"Ugh!" Su Mo felt goosebumps rise all over his skin.

"If you start acting coquettish like those senior female students again, see if I don't kick you right off the bed tonight!"

Xiao Wu's pretty face flushed red, and she let out a very indignant huff. "Hmph, stingy-puss!"

Suddenly, a flash of crafty light crossed her eyes. She leaned close to Su Mo's ear and whispered softly, "Brother Su Mo, if you let me have this coin, then promise me that the next two will both belong to me, okay?"

With that, Xiao Wu even gave a gentle puff of breath against Su Mo's ear for good measure.

Su Mo felt his ear tickle slightly, and he shoved Xiao Wu's head away with the palm of his hand.

"Seriously, who on earth do you learn these things from!"

He felt like Xiao Wu had changed, and was no longer that innocent Xiao Wu from before.

Well, it definitely had nothing to do with him.

He had only accidentally touched certain places he shouldn't have while sleeping, and entirely without conscious intent.

That definitely wouldn't cause Xiao Wu to change.

It had to be the fault of those senior female students at the academy; they were undoubtedly the ones who had corrupted Xiao Wu.

Yes, that had to be it.

Once Su Mo reasoned it all out, he severely condemned the thought in his heart while simultaneously bargaining with Xiao Wu in whispers.

"One."

"Two!"

"Then one and a half!"

"There's no such thing as one and a half!" Furious, Xiao Wu clamped her teeth straight down onto Su Mo's ear.

"Ow, ow, ow! Let go!"

"Two! If you don't agree, I'm not letting go!" Xiao Wu declared fiercely.

"Fine, fine, fine, two it is! Let go already!" Helpless, Su Mo had no choice but to compromise.

Xiao Wu released her bite and said with a cheeky grin, "That's much better. Hurry up and draw, hurry up and draw, let's see what we get."

Su Mo rubbed his slightly aching ear and cast a speechless look at Xiao Wu.

Sure enough, even a rabbit would bite when pushed into a corner.

"Why are you staring at me? Hurry up and draw, or let me do it if you aren't going to!"

Acting as if nothing had just happened, Xiao Wu urged Su Mo to hurry up and spin the gacha.

At the same time, her eyes shone brightly as if she wanted to take over the draw for him.

Su Mo felt that if he didn't pull soon, Xiao Wu might just pounce and snatch it again.

"Can you not be so impatient? Let's wait until we find an empty place."

"Don't be like that, Brother Su. We want to see what comes out too." At that moment, Wang Sheng was sprawled across his bed, staring curiously in Su Mo and Xiao Wu's direction.

After all, the sound of Su Mo and Xiao Wu's conversation just now had been quite loud.

The rest of the roommates were watching with matching expressions of curiosity.

Every single one of them was burning with questions.

None of them had ever witnessed what kind of things Su Mo's Martial Soul could actually pull out.

So they were all quite intrigued.

Although eggs did indeed roll out whenever Su Mo used his soul skills, those always instantly transformed into streaks of light that vanished straight into Su Mo's body.

As a result, they had no idea what an actual gacha draw looked like.

Xiao Wu glared at the group, placing her hands on her hips. "What? Who gave you the guts!"

Wang Sheng and the others instantly shrank their necks back. "Sister Xiao Wu, we're not looking anymore."
