"You... was what you just said really true?"
"Another child with innate full Soul Power? Tell me, what exactly is that child's martial soul?"
By then, Yu Xiaogang had already come back to his senses.
He looked at Director Su before him, his eyes brimming with uncontrollable fervor, and asked impatiently.
Seeing the fervor lurking in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, Director Su's face showed undisguised disgust.
But in the end, out of what little regard he had for the dean and the instructions he had given, he told him the truth:
"That's right. Not long ago, a six-year-old child did come here."
"Not only did he have innate full Soul Power, but the martial soul he awakened was called a Qilin."
At those words, Yu Xiaogang instantly fell silent.
A Qilin martial soul?
Why had he never found that name among the vast ocean of martial soul texts, despite reading extensively and pouring half his life's efforts into them?
Could it be some rare mutated martial soul?
Or was it actually twin martial souls?
At that possibility, Yu Xiaogang's eyes suddenly lit up, and excitement he couldn't even be bothered to conceal instantly flooded his face.
Twin martial souls!
If it really was twin martial souls, he had to take this person as his disciple, no matter what.
If he really took him in, then with Tang San as well, wouldn't he be able to personally raise two Titled Douluos in the future?
Hahaha...
When that time comes, let's see who still dares call me trash to my face.
He, Yu Xiaogang, would prove himself!
The more he thought about it, the more fired up he became. Unable to wait another moment, Yu Xiaogang asked eagerly:
"Tell me, which dorm did he go to? I'm going to find him right now!"
Seeing the excitement on Yu Xiaogang's face, Director Su's gaze immediately turned strange, as though he had seen something not quite normal.
He showed him no courtesy, speaking with outright mockery:
"He went to Dorm Seven."
"Also, don't tell me you actually want to take that kid with the Qilin martial soul as your disciple? I suggest you give up on that idea right now. You, a piece of level-29 trash, want to take a genius with innate full Soul Power as your disciple? This isn't reaching for the moon. You haven't even woken up from your dream."
"What person with innate full Soul Power would be blind enough to take you as their master?"
Those words were harsh, but on closer thought, there really wasn't anything wrong with them.
After all, any normal person, whether they had innate full Soul Power or even just innate level-eight Soul Power, probably wouldn't have a sudden brain spasm and take a piece of level-29 trash as their teacher, would they?
If someone like that really existed, what else could anyone say?
That wasn't a problem with their brain. Their brain had run away from home and locked the door behind it.
Little Scumbag: Was that polite?
The moment those words came out, Tang San was the first to react.
A trace of killing intent instantly flashed through his eyes.
This man actually dared to call me blind?
Very well. You've already courted death.
If my teacher weren't standing right here, I'd shoot a few bolts into you on the spot.
Yu Xiaogang's face darkened at those words.
A black line instantly hung down from his forehead.
He nearly exploded on the spot.
You dare call me trash?
You're trash!
Your whole family is trash!
But however viciously he cursed inwardly, he didn't dare let it actually show on his face.
Although he was friends with Nuoding Academy's dean, and that connection did have some use, for the past few years, he had been freeloading at the academy, eating and taking things for free.
All right... to put it bluntly, he was no different from a beggar.
No, he wasn't even as good as a beggar.
Some beggars could at least hold out their hands and ask without a shred of shame. But him?
He even had to put on a smiling face.
More importantly, the other man was already growing impatient with him.
That look, that tone, plainly said:
Cause any more trouble, and I'll throw you out immediately.
So for now, he had to endure it.
Once my disciple Tang San grows up, let's see how you keep mocking me!
When that time came, he, Yu Xiaogang, would be a Titled Douluo's teacher!
Who in the entire world would still dare mock him?
Only at that thought did Yu Xiaogang force his anger down.
Without even looking at Director Su again, he reached out, took Tang San's hand, and turned to leave, letting out a cold snort before he went.
He looked unbearably arrogant.
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's arrogant attitude, Director Su's fists clenched on the spot.
His clenched fists cracked audibly.
If not for the dean's sake, he would have charged over and punched him twice, no matter what.
What are you acting so high and mighty for?
You're nearly fifty and haven't even broken through level thirty. If that isn't trash, what is?
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
After leaving the academic affairs office, Lin Chuan headed straight toward Dorm Seven without stopping along the way.
On the way, quite a few young girls stared straight at him upon seeing his handsome face, infatuated expressions appearing on their faces.
Some were even more outrageous, outright saying they wanted to have his babies.
Lin Chuan found such wild, lustful words utterly ridiculous.
As expected of the Douluo Continent. People really are open-minded here.
But the problem is, I'm only six right now.
Six!
How could they dare have such filthy thoughts?
If anything really happened, the sentence would start at three years.
Good grief. That's downright criminal.
Before long, Lin Chuan finally reached the entrance to Dorm Seven and walked straight inside without another word.
The moment he entered, he saw a group gathered around a girl, packed three rows deep inside and out. It was quite a lively scene.
The girl was about six years old, wearing a pale pink short dress, little pink shoes, and stockings that reached partway up her legs.
A pair of rabbit ears stood atop her head, a little rabbit bag hung at her waist, and a miniature carrot dangled against her chest.
Her little face was rosy and fair, with plump baby fat that made one want to give it a pinch.
Her eyes were big, round, and gleaming black, while a glossy, smooth black scorpion braid hung past her bottom.
The people surrounding her, however, all wore traces of fear on their faces, along with a hint of respect.
They kept saying:
"Sister Xiao Wu, you're the boss of Dorm Seven now!"
Seeing the girl not far away, Lin Chuan immediately understood that she had to be Xiao Wu.
Taking another look at Xiao Wu's appearance and outfit, he couldn't help clicking his tongue.
He had to admit, although Xiao Wu was still little, she was already a true budding beauty. What would she be like once she grew up?
Especially those legs, fair as jade. Though they were still somewhat short now, in a few years, they would be a completely different story.
Just then, Xiao Wu and the others noticed Lin Chuan walking in.
They all turned their heads, looking over in unison.
At their very first glimpse of Lin Chuan, quite a few of the boys in Dorm Seven were stunned on the spot.
They swore they had never seen such a handsome child in all their lives.
Truly, never.
Not a single one.
Especially with those blue eyes, paired with blue hair and features so exquisite that no fault could be found, he exuded a noble, aloof air.
How should that feeling be described? It was as though he and the people around him were on completely different wavelengths.
One had stepped out of a painting, while the others had rolled out of the mud.
The gulf between them was absurdly vast.
