"Hm?"

Lin Ye was arranging his toiletries when he noticed Wang Sheng approaching from behind. The instant Wang Sheng reached out to shove him, Lin Ye's eyes flickered, and he grabbed Wang Sheng's hand in a backhanded grip.

"You still dare resist?"

Seeing that Lin Ye actually dared to resist, Wang Sheng immediately put on a fierce expression. He tried to forcefully wrench his hand free and shove Lin Ye to the ground.

But sensing Wang Sheng's movement, Lin Ye frowned.

He did not like causing trouble, but if someone came looking to bully him, he would never be afraid of it!

As Wang Sheng exerted force to break free, Lin Ye clasped his wrist and yanked hard. As though swinging a forging hammer, he instantly dragged Wang Sheng off the ground, swung him in a full arc, and slammed him down.

Lin Ye's strength was immense.

After cultivating the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill, the force of a single arm swing exceeded a thousand jin.

Even using less than a quarter of his strength, lifting an eleven- or twelve-year-old boy like Wang Sheng was effortless.

Wang Sheng had been preparing to resist after Lin Ye grabbed his hand, but before he could exert any strength, an unstoppable force surged from his wrist and flung him away.

The world spun in an instant, and Wang Sheng was slammed straight into the ground.

Bang!

With a sharp sound, Wang Sheng felt pain shoot through his back. He let out a muffled groan and curled up under the pain.

However, protected by soul power and with Lin Ye holding back rather than using much force, Wang Sheng only felt pain in his back and had not actually suffered any serious injury.

"You bastard, you actually dared to hit me!"

After Lin Ye released him, Wang Sheng climbed to his feet. Feeling the pain in his back, he shouted furiously before lunging at Lin Ye again.

"Die!"

Staring at Lin Ye, Wang Sheng roared and fiercely swung his right fist at him.

Bolstered by soul power, the force behind Wang Sheng's punch even exceeded that of an adult. His fist tore through the air with a deep whistle.

But faced with Wang Sheng's punch, Lin Ye remained calm and simply reached out to catch it.

Then, with his other hand, he struck Wang Sheng in the chest with a palm and sent him flying.

After flying high into the air, Wang Sheng crashed heavily into a bed, overturning it completely. He landed sprawled on the overturned bed.

Before the injury on his back had even recovered, he had crashed into the bed again. With injury piled upon injury, pain twisted Wang Sheng's entire face.

"Boss!"

Seeing Wang Sheng get sent flying by Lin Ye's palm strike in a direct fight, the children around them all cried out in disbelief.

"Hiss, ow..."

Supporting himself against the bed with one hand and rubbing his back with the other, Wang Sheng sucked in cold breaths as he awkwardly climbed off the overturned, dust-covered bed.

When he looked at Lin Ye again, a trace of fear flashed through his eyes.

If he had previously thought Lin Ye had caught him off guard, then after his full-force punch was effortlessly blocked and he himself was slapped flying, Wang Sheng now understood that Lin Ye was no ordinary person! "Lin Ye, is your martial soul really a begonia flower?"

Rubbing his still-aching back, Wang Sheng looked at Lin Ye with an uncertain expression and asked tentatively.

"My martial soul is indeed a begonia flower. You should be convinced now, right?"

In response to Wang Sheng's question, Lin Ye raised a hand and summoned the begonia flower as he answered calmly.

"It really is a begonia flower, but it seems somewhat different from the begonia flowers I've seen. Could this be a mutated martial soul? Is that why he has such incredible strength?"

Looking at the Nine Spirit Immortal Begonia in Lin Ye's hand, Wang Sheng murmured to himself in shock.

"Lin Ye, according to the rules of Dormitory Seven, now that you've defeated me, you'll be the boss of Dormitory Seven from now on!"

Having made up his mind, Wang Sheng suddenly raised his head to look at Lin Ye and spoke with great seriousness.

"You provoked me earlier just to test my strength?"

As though he had realized something, Lin Ye frowned slightly.

"Hehe, that's the rule in Dormitory Seven. We all went through the same thing back then."

Wang Sheng scratched his head awkwardly and gave an embarrassed laugh.

"I can be your boss, but I might not stay at the academy for very long. Is that still alright?"

Lin Ye pondered for a moment before speaking.

"You won't stay at our academy for very long? Boss, what do you mean? You've only just enrolled, so you can't be graduating that soon. Are you planning to transfer to another Soul Master Academy later?"

Wang Sheng was surprised by Lin Ye's words.

"No, I don't plan on transferring."

Lin Ye shook his head.

"Then why?"

Wang Sheng asked again.

Tang San also walked over from the side, clearly equally puzzled by Lin Ye's words.

"I have Innate Full Soul Power. According to the requirements of the Junior Soul Master Academy, I can graduate once I become a Soul Master. So after advancing to Soul Master and learning some of the academy's basic knowledge, I plan to leave the academy and gain experience."

Lin Ye answered slowly.

"You have Innate Full Soul Power?!"

Hearing Lin Ye's words, Wang Sheng and the children of Dormitory Seven all widened their eyes in shock.

Innate Full Soul Power was a top-tier talent that had always existed only in legends. They had actually encountered a Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power? "Is Innate Full Soul Power really that strange?"

Seeing Wang Sheng and the other children so shocked, Lin Ye spoke nonchalantly.

"Strange! Of course it's strange! This is Innate Full Soul Power!!"

Wang Sheng muttered in shock.

"Innate Full Soul Power? Heh, Tang San also has Innate Full Soul Power."

Lin Ye pointed at Tang San and smiled faintly.

"What? Tang San, you have Innate Full Soul Power too?!"

When Wang Sheng heard Lin Ye say that Tang San also had Innate Full Soul Power, he felt as though a mouthful of blood had rushed straight up his throat.

For a moment, he could not say a word. All he felt was envy, jealousy, and resentment rising within him.

"Yes, I have Innate Full Soul Power too."

Tang San smiled modestly, as though he did not care about it at all.

Seeing Lin Ye and Tang San's reactions, Wang Sheng roared inwardly. He had a thousand what-the-fucks he did not know whether to say.

Come on! This was Innate Full Soul Power!

Why did both of them look so unconcerned? If they didn't care so much, then give it to me! Give it all to me!!

Tears of envy and jealousy streamed down Wang Sheng's heart.

"Wang Sheng, how about this? Once I leave, Tang San can become your second boss. What do you think?"

After pondering for a while, Lin Ye asked.

"Mm."

After learning that both Lin Ye and Tang San possessed Innate Full Soul Power, Wang Sheng and the children of Dormitory Seven were still dazed, so they simply answered blankly.

"Lin Ye, what boss? I can't be a boss!"

Hearing Lin Ye's words, Tang San hurriedly tried to refuse.

"Tang San, you have Innate Full Soul Power. You should be able to obtain a soul ring very soon, so you're more than qualified to be our boss. Don't worry, we won't object."

Coming back to his senses, Wang Sheng sighed, his expression somewhat complicated.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah!"

The other children quickly chimed in.

"I..."

Tang San still wanted to say something, but Lin Ye frowned and cut him off.

"What do you mean, 'I'? Tang San, we're electing you as our boss, not asking you to become a lackey. You only need to stand up for the people of Dormitory Seven at the appropriate times and be a good boss. You don't have to do anything the rest of the time, and you'll even have people as your underlings. That shouldn't be troublesome, right?"

"Then... alright!"

With things having reached this point, Tang San could only sigh helplessly and agree.
