The Rogue Rabbit 1

Tang Xiaosan stood in the middle of the room. Although she was considerably shorter than Wang Sheng,

her imposing presence did not falter in the slightest.

Wang Sheng rolled his shoulders, tiger stripes faintly emerging on his arms.

Although he was only a level-nine Soul Master, he already ranked among the best at Nuoding Academy.

After all, students at a junior Soul Master Academy could graduate as soon as they obtained their first soul ring.

"I'll ask you one last time. Are you sure you want to fight?"

Facing the frail Tang Xiaosan before him, Wang Sheng still felt somewhat unable to cut loose.

Tang Xiaosan nodded.

Wang Sheng wasted no more words. His right foot drove hard against the ground, and he lunged like a tiger.

His tiger claws went straight for Tang Xiaosan's shoulders.

Su Ling leaned against the wall, arms folded, watching the middle of the room without blinking.

Tang Xiaosan was in no hurry to dodge.

She merely turned slightly to one side.

Wang Sheng's tiger claws brushed past the hem of her clothes.

Although Wang Sheng was a returning student, his combat experience fell far short of Tang Xiaosan's.

The momentum of his forward charge left him unable to steady himself.

Tang Xiaosan lightly hooked her left foot around Wang Sheng's ankle.

Wang Sheng hit the floor with a thud.

The dormitory fell silent for an instant, then erupted in laughter.

"Wang Sheng, have you got what it takes or not?"

"A little girl knocked you down! Hahaha!"

"Wang Sheng, don't tell me you've started cherishing flowers and sparing jade!"

His face flushed red, Wang Sheng scrambled awkwardly off the floor and lunged at Tang Xiaosan again, humiliation turning to anger.

This time, he held nothing back. Both fists wrapped in Soul Power, he punched straight at Tang Xiaosan.

Tang Xiaosan's movements turned uncanny, making it impossible to pinpoint where she would appear next.

Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track!

Although Tang Xiaosan's Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track was still at the introductory stage, that was only because her current Soul Power Level was low. Her proficiency in using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, however, was terrifyingly high.

Wang Sheng grew more anxious as he fought. His Soul Power drained rapidly, his punches began losing their form, and his steps grew heavy.

A level-nine Soul Master had little Soul Power in reserve to begin with.

With Mysterious Heaven Skill, Tang Xiaosan's staying power surpassed Wang Sheng's by who knew how much.

Spotting an opening, Tang Xiaosan ducked down, pressed her shoulder against Wang Sheng's waist, and leaned into him.

Turn his strength against him!

Wang Sheng was flipped bodily through the air, his back slamming into an empty bed. The bedboards let out an agonized creak.

"That's enough."

Su Ling spoke.

The outcome was settled. There was no point in continuing.

He walked over to Tang Xiaosan and glanced down at her.

Apart from breathing a little harder and breaking into a thin sheen of sweat, Little Miss San was completely fine.

She tipped her head up and smiled at Su Ling, revealing two little canine teeth.

"I won."

"Mm."

Su Ling patted Tang Xiaosan's head.

This Tang Xiaosan really was lovable.

Wang Sheng climbed off the bed, rubbing his back.

Although he felt he had lost some face, he was still reasonable. Having agreed to the wager, he would accept his loss. He, Wang Sheng, was no sore loser.

Finally, he sighed and cupped his hands toward Tang Xiaosan.

"I concede. You're stronger than me!"

He turned to glance at Su Ling.

"You're both impressive. From now on, you two are the bosses of Dorm Seven."

Wang Sheng was quite perceptive. He had long since noticed that Tang Xiaosan deferred to Su Ling. Otherwise, how could he have become the only person on the Douluo Continent to see that Yu Xiaogang was just freeloading?

Su Ling waved a hand and was about to say there was no need for any of this boss business when the door suddenly swung open.

A girl stood in the doorway.

She wore a little pink dress and was somewhat taller than Tang Xiaosan. Her long scorpion braid hung down to her waist. Her features were delicate, her large eyes lively enough to seem capable of speech, and her lips curved in something almost like a smile.

"You're the boss of Dorm Seven?"

Her gaze swept around the room before finally settling on Su Ling.

"It's you?"

Su Ling shook his head and pointed to Tang Xiaosan beside him.

"It's her."

Xiao Wu tilted her head, looked at Tang Xiaosan, then at Su Ling, and suddenly smiled.

"That won't do. You're the one I want to challenge!"

She pointed at Su Ling.

This left Su Ling rather puzzled.

What was this old rogue rabbit up to? Why wasn't she following the plot?

"This little girl is also a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast. She would be very suitable as your second soul ring."

Ah Yin's voice rang out in Su Ling's mind again.

As if you needed to tell me. I'm someone who knows everything!

"Aren't you afraid that if there are too many rabbits, they'll eat all the Blue Silver Emperor?"

Su Ling teasingly asked Ah Yin. Ah Yin indeed had not considered this issue.

"What do we do, then?"

"Can't I just introduce some Soul Beasts that eat Soft Bone Rabbits?"

There, that's called biological control. That's called professionalism.

"You're so mean!"

Inside his sea of consciousness, Ah Yin planted her foot on Su Ling's face as punishment.

"What are you doing? Ow."

"I can share your emotions now. You clearly like this, Master!"

Discovering that her little master had some strange predilections, Ah Yin felt as though she had discovered a new world.

After all, Su Ling was still too young, so Ah Yin could only vent her emotions in other ways.

"Stop fooling around, Ah Yin. My Martial Soul will evolve some lower-tier Soul Beasts based on the Soul Beasts it absorbs. With so many carrots on the continent, these rogue rabbits won't gnaw on Blue Silver Emperor."

"Hmph!"

Angrily, Ah Yin stepped on Su Ling twice more.

"After all, Blue Silver Emperor is tough and tastes awful. Its texture isn't even as good as ordinary Blue Silver Grass."

"I-I'm never speaking to you again!"

After she said that, Su Ling felt something strange being stuffed into his mouth.

Cool and chilly. Holy shit, it's jade bamboo.

Su Ling looked at Xiao Wu,

unable to understand what this stupid rabbit wanted.

The system notification sounded right on time.

"Ding. Important plot point detected. Mission-issuing eligibility will now be granted."

"Mission issuer: Anonymous. Mission: Do not injure Xiao Wu. Reward: Increase the age of the first soul ring by ten thousand years."

"Who is this Anonymous?" Bibi Dong set her wise brain furiously to work. She seemed to recall that there was no such person on the continent.

"Anonymous?" What a strange name.

"Investigate whether there's anyone named Anonymous in the Heaven Dou Empire!"

"Yes!"

Su Ling's heart stirred slightly. What kind of ridiculous mission was this? Increasing the first soul ring's age by thirty thousand years?

Ah Yin currently had a hundred thousand years of cultivation, so Su Ling's first soul ring was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, and it was still constantly improving.

Although thirty thousand years was not much, the mission was simple, after all. Taking it would be no loss.

Xiao Wu also grew puzzled.

I don't think I know this person called Anonymous. Why would they help me?

Could one of my little rabbit followers be a female rabbit named Anonymous?

Tang Xiaosan sensed the impurity of Xiao Wu's intentions.

"Su Ling, don't you dare?"

Xiao Wu took two steps forward, hands behind her back, and bent slightly at the waist to lean closer to him, a sly light flashing in her large eyes.

The sight left Tang Xiaosan seething with anger.

Where did this homewrecker come from? How dare she seduce my man!

Looking into her eyes, Su Ling suddenly remembered how Xiao Wu had entered Dorm Seven in the original story. She had beaten everyone up and become the boss of Dorm Seven, then fought Tang San.

Why was the current Xiao Wu different from the original?

Of course, Su Ling did not dwell on it. Even Little Miss San had appeared, so it was perfectly normal for the others to be somewhat different too.

Of course, what Su Ling could not have guessed was that Xiao Wu was also one of the livestream viewers.

In other words, she knew that Su Ling's Martial Soul was a planet, and she also knew about his hundred-thousand-year first soul ring.

For her to challenge him despite knowing his strength, Xiao Wu clearly had no good intentions either.
