The Happy Little Sea Tiger Toys with Wang Dong

At the entrance to the dormitory building, Bai Jingtian and Wang Dong stood facing each other a short distance apart. Well-Fed Douluo, who made a habit of cosplaying as the elderly dorm supervisor every day, was there today as well.

Seeing the furious Wang Dong and the relaxed Bai Jingtian, he opened his previously closed eyes a fraction. His lips moved slightly, as though he were muttering something to himself.

Bai Jingtian paused briefly in his leisurely movements, and a subtle smile appeared on his face.

As I thought, Well-Fed Douluo knew about Wang Dong's background from the start. But I wasn't planning to actually beat her to death anyway.

Still, since Well-Fed Douluo has said as much, and a few special spectators have shown up, I suppose I'll hold back a little.

Noticing several figures he had seen during enrollment yesterday walking toward the dormitory building in the distance, Bai Jingtian revised his original, somewhat dangerous plan.

"Aren't you going to show your Soul Rings?" Wang Dong asked in confusion, seeing Bai Jingtian's rather casual stance.

"To deal with a sissy like you who's barely past level twenty? There's no need at all," Bai Jingtian replied with a smile.

But his somewhat obnoxious grin only made Wang Dong angrier. Her long, slender legs tensed, and she shot toward Bai Jingtian like an arrow. Raising her right foot, she opened with a kick to his groin.

"Whoa, baby Wang Dong, what exquisite kicking technique! Those slender legs don't have an ounce of strength in them, ya know!"

Bai Jingtian raised his left leg slightly and used his shin to precisely block Wang Dong's ankle, stopping her kick before she could put her full strength into it. His hands remained in his pockets the whole time, and he looked completely at ease.

"Damn it!" Wang Dong's blood pressure rose again, and her face grew several shades redder. She adjusted her stance and kicked out with her right leg once more, only this time aiming for Bai Jingtian's head.

Yet Bai Jingtian still had no intention of taking his hands out of his pockets. He merely leaned back slightly, easily dodging Wang Dong's attack, then deliberately made a face as though he had smelled shit and remarked with a hint of disgust:

"You stink! Girl, do you really pay so little attention to hygiene? You've got athlete's foot at such a young age. You don't even need to cultivate your Martial Soul anymore. Just focus on making your athlete's foot worse."

"You're the one who didn't wash your feet! Your whole family didn't wash their feet!"

Having missed again, Wang Dong was a little unsteady when she landed on both feet. It was hard to say whether that was because she had been too lazy to master her skills, or because Bai Jingtian had already made her so angry she was overheating.

Once she had regained her footing, she abandoned the idea of settling the fight in close combat and revealed her Martial Soul.

As two Soul Rings, one yellow and one purple, appeared in a configuration surpassing the optimal one, a pair of exceptionally dazzling blue-and-gold butterfly wings appeared behind Wang Dong and carried her into the air.

But the slightly unnatural movement of her right leg showed that she had strained it herself.

"Die! First Soul Skill, Wing Guillotine!"

As her First Soul Ring lit up, Wang Dong reached out, grabbed her butterfly wings, and pulled hard. A golden edge of light about three inches wide immediately formed along the edges of her wings, looking incomparably sharp. She brought it down toward Bai Jingtian's head.

However, just as Wing Guillotine was about to land on Bai Jingtian's head, two Soul Rings suddenly appeared around him. In the next instant, his figure became an afterimage, and Wang Dong's attack struck empty air.

Wang Dong had never expected her attack to miss like that, and it was too late to pull back. Just as she tried to lift her head and fly up again, a large hand pressed down on her head, pinning both it and Wing Guillotine to the ground.

"Wow, is that the legendary flying knee-slide kowtow? What a shame I don't want a daughter like you. I can't possibly accept such a gesture."

Bai Jingtian took his right hand out of his pocket and pressed down on Wang Dong's head, making her kowtow to Well-Fed Douluo a short distance away. Then he slid backward for some distance.

He had just used Electric Force from the Sea Tiger Five Extremes to put some distance between them in an instant, dodging Wang Dong's attack while pressing down on her head and making her crash-land.

"That's amazing... Is everyone at Shrek Academy this skilled? Eldest senior brother, can I really..."

A short distance away, Huo Yutong, who had just finished breakfast, was following Bei Bei back to the dormitory. Watching Bai Jingtian toy with Wang Dong so effortlessly, her large eyes were already full of longing.

"Yutong, there's no need to look down on yourself like that. There are no more than five people in the entire outer courtyard as formidable as that person. Even I couldn't toy with an opponent of the same rank as effortlessly as he does.

"Besides, the freshman assessment in three months won't require you to defeat any particular opponent to pass..."

Bei Bei explained gently, a little more seriousness entering his eyes.

Bai Jingtian was the freshman his great-great-grandfather had specifically told him to recruit yesterday. Now it seemed he was not only skilled at controlling the lightning element, but his movement and fighting techniques were also no worse than Bei Bei's.

If he could bring a genius like that into the Tang Sect...

(Bai Jingtian: Tang Sect? Eat shit!)

"You bastard!!!"

Forced to kowtow, Wang Dong's face had turned so red it was almost purple, like a swimmer from a certain Uncle Sam country.

As the Clear Sky Sect's little princess and a proud genius, when had she ever suffered such humiliation?

And other people her age had seen her in such a shameful state. To Wang Dong, this was the ultimate humiliation.

She immediately flew high into the air, reaching roughly the height of the fifth floor. The purple Soul Ring around her had already lit up, and the wings of her Light Goddess Butterfly blazed with light. Golden patterns erupted with a brilliant radiance, each one like a tiny sun that had been set alight.

Dozens of orbs of light immediately shot toward Bai Jingtian, engulfing his figure.

"Hmph, this is my thousand-year Soul Skill. Just wait there with endless regret until I drag you out of Shrek Academy and throw you away like a dead dog..."

Looking at the clouds of dust rising below, Wang Dong wore the expression of someone who had finally taken revenge.

But her expression had barely begun to relax when the voice she least wanted to hear rang out from another direction:

"Wow, baby Wang Dong, you're amazing! You actually managed to blast such a big crater~

"It's a shame your eyesight still isn't very good. Do you need me to recommend an eyeglass shop?

"If you don't have enough money for a complete pair of glasses, I have a way for you to get some while paying only half the price, you know?"

Bai Jingtian stood leisurely on the branch of a large tree nearby, shading his eyes with a raised hand as he admired Wang Dong's performance of frantically blasting craters.

It had to be said, a thousand-year Soul Skill truly lived up to its name. The crater Wang Dong had blasted this time was big enough for a Yamcha to lie in and recreate a world-famous painting.
