Evening Class

"Wuwu~, Chen Ge, you're the one who understands me. I don't want to be like this either, but I have no choice!"

If there had been any other solution, Ma Hongjun would not have wanted to seek out those older sisters! Did they really think he liked it? He found it revolting too, okay?

If Ye Chen had an immortal herb like the Cockscomb Sunflower right now, or if the balance in his Small Treasury was more money than he could ever spend, then perhaps he would have helped Ma Hongjun solve his evil fire problem.

But Ye Chen currently lacked the ability to acquire immortal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, and there was not much left in his Small Treasury either. He still needed to save it to upgrade the quality of his and Xiao Wu's martial souls, so he had no money to spend on Ma Hongjun.

Besides, to be honest, he had only just met Ma Hongjun. Their relationship was not close enough for that.

After giving it some thought, Ye Chen spoke up.

"Fatty, how about I lend you some money? You can pay me back when you have money later."

The reason Ye Chen was willing to lend Ma Hongjun money was that he did not want to watch a classmate go looking for older sisters at such a young age.

The other reason was to get Xiao Wu used to the fact that outstanding men always had plenty of girls around them.

After all, Big Kitty would be coming to Shrek Academy next year. He certainly could not let that "thousand-man slayer" Dai Mubai ruin her. Ye Chen was afraid that if he showed concern for other girls later, Xiao Wu would throw a huge tantrum.

"Lend me Gold Soul Coins? Chen Ge, are you serious?"

Ma Hongjun's eyes immediately lit up. If he had money, he would not need to go to the brothel to find those older sisters.

"Mm-hmm. But Fatty, haven't you ever met any rich older women?"

Although Ma Hongjun was a little fat and somewhat sleazy, his looks were actually not bad. If this had been his previous life, he probably would have reached the peak of life early on, right? Those rich older women loved this type the most~

Could it be that rich older women were not a thing on Douluo Continent?

Ma Hongjun: "..."

"Ahem, Chen Ge, let's talk about borrowing money instead~"

Ma Hongjun skipped over the subject of rich older women. He had never run into one anyway.

"Do you have a Storage Soul Tool?"

Ye Chen kept his Small Treasury in the System Shop. The Gold Soul Coins he withdrew from the System Shop came out loose, and the cheat did not provide a function for converting them into Gold Coin Cards. Without a Storage Soul Tool, they would be rather inconvenient to carry.

"No~"

Ma Hongjun shook his head.

That made sense. Although Storage Soul Tools were not uncommon on Douluo Continent, not every Spirit Master had one. Because soul tool technology had been lost, the Storage Soul Tools on the continent had all been passed down from the past. Even the smallest ones were extremely expensive.

"Tsk, tsk~"

Shaking his head, Ye Chen opened the System Shop and bought a Storage Soul Tool with only one cubic meter of space. He then filled it with ten thousand Gold Soul Coins and handed it to Ma Hongjun.

Storage Soul Tools were not expensive in the System Shop. One with a capacity of one cubic meter only cost a thousand Gold Soul Coins.

And ten thousand Gold Soul Coins were enough for Ma Hongjun to have fun with those pretty Little Sisters for several years.

Well, hopefully this little fatty would not overdo it to the point of vanishing!

After taking the Storage Soul Tool, Ma Hongjun quickly refined it. The moment he saw the huge pile of Gold Soul Coins inside, he was instantly overjoyed.

"Chen Ge, that's so many Gold Soul Coins! There must be over ten thousand, right? You're that rich?"

"Ahem, keep it low-key, keep it low-key. It's not much. I just don't lack money!"

Ye Chen waved a hand. Ten thousand or so Gold Soul Coins were merely pocket change.

Ma Hongjun was a genius, after all. He was only doing him a favor in advance. Though he probably would not need it in the future, Ye Chen had not lost anything either.

"Fatty, shouldn't you treat us now?"

Hearing that Ma Hongjun had money, Oscar immediately started clamoring for him to treat them.

"Hehe~, Xiao Ao, how about I take you out for some fun tonight?"

Ma Hongjun said to Oscar with a lewd grin.

Oscar: "..."

Night fell.

By the time Ye Chen and Xiao Wu arrived at the Sports Field, Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai were already there.

As for Oscar, he was a food-type Spirit Master with no combat ability. Besides, there were not enough people to form a group right now, so he did not need to attend Evening Class.

Not long after, Flander arrived as well.

"Very good, everyone's here. Let's head to Suotuo City."

Flander swept his gaze over the group before speaking to Ye Chen and the others.

"Wait, Dean Flander, are we going to the Great Spirit Arena?"

At that moment, Ye Chen spoke up.

"Huh? How did you know, kid? That's right, we'll be having class at Suotuo City's Great Spirit Arena later."

Flander was somewhat surprised. He had not expected Ye Chen to know his arrangements in advance.

"Xiao Wu, let's disguise ourselves."

Ye Chen spoke to Xiao Wu, then activated the Disguise Necklace's ability to alter their appearance.

Soul Power surged around Ye Chen, and with a flash of light, he changed from his original youthful appearance into an ordinary-looking young man.

Xiao Wu did much the same, transforming into an ordinary young woman.

"Damn, what's going on?"

Watching Ye Chen and Xiao Wu undergo such a drastic transformation, Ma Hongjun could not help clicking his tongue.

Dai Mubai was also somewhat surprised. This did not seem to be the effect of a spirit skill—could it be a Soul Tool capable of changing one's appearance?

"Not bad, not bad. I was originally thinking of preparing masks for the two of you, but it seems they won't be needed."

Seeing the two of them change their appearance, Flander nodded.

Indeed, the two were originally too young. If their Four-Ring Soul Elder level were exposed, it would definitely cause quite a stir. But if they looked like young adults, they would not attract attention.

"Alright, let's go!"

With a wave of his hand, Flander pushed off from the ground and darted away lightly, heading toward Suotuo City.

Seeing Flander set off, Ye Chen and the other four followed after him.

Shrek Academy was not far from Suotuo City. The group of five were all Spirit Masters and moved quickly, arriving before long.

Suotuo City lay within the Balak Kingdom and faced no threat from outside forces, so its gates remained open at all hours. The group entered the city without issue.

Although night had already fallen, Suotuo City was even livelier than it was during the day.

Every shop along the streets was brightly lit. Vendors who only came out to do business at night had all found their usual spots, selling snacks, trinkets, and other such goods.

The moment they entered Suotuo City and saw the bustling crowds, Ma Hongjun's gaze could not help drifting toward the Little Sisters around them. He was practically drooling.

"Fatty, what's with you? Do you really have to be this horny?"

Sharp-eyed Ye Chen noticed and jabbed Ma Hongjun with his elbow.

"Ahem, I couldn't help it, I couldn't help it~"

Ma Hongjun said awkwardly. But Grandpa Ma was a man with money now, so there was no need to visit the brothels. Tonight, he would try out a high-end club and see whether it was really as enjoyable as Dai Mubai had once said~.
