"Teacher, I."
Xiao Xiao lowered her head, tears streaming down her cheeks and falling to the ground in a soft patter.
The girl was truly aggrieved.
"Hmph! Whether you want to be in the top three or not, you know it in your heart!" Zhou Yi glanced at her coldly, then took a deep breath, trying to calm her anger, and said, "I kindly put you in this team so you could be the new class's trump card.
Although Wang Dong is gone, if you're willing to cough, you still have a chance to squeeze into the top three. Don't let my good intentions go to waste."
With that, Zhou Yi left without looking back,leaving only a dejected Xiao Xiao behind.
Chen Yanjin disappeared without a word. Huo Yuhao glanced blankly at the tearful girl, pursed his lips, hesitated for a moment, and then turned to leave—he felt a sense of vengeful satisfaction at Xiao Xiao's earlier disdain.
Teacher Zhou Yi had scolded her; although the teacher was strict, she wouldn't scold the wrong person, proving that Xiao Xiao was wrong.
The first day's round-robin tournament only had one match, the purpose being for the academy to allow the students to adapt more quickly.
Xie Huanyue faced off against the Chicken Leg Team from the original story, naturally dominating and easily winning.
The cafeteria.
Because the freshmen had just finished their assessments, it was packed with them.
The upperclassmen were crying and shouting outside, unable to squeeze in, much like military training in his previous life. Especially since the freshmen were growing and could eat a lot.
"Awesome!"
Xie Huanyue put down his chopsticks, patted his stomach, and looked satisfied.
A mountain of bowls and plates, nearly meters high and teetering on the verge of collapse, had already been piled up in front of them, and there were several other freshmen this year who could eat just as much...
"Junior, could you leave some food for your senior? I'd even lick your plate! I haven't eaten for three days and I'm starving."
Bei Bei said exaggeratedly, clinging to Xie Huan Yue's arm.
Tang Ya couldn't help but chuckle, giving Bei Bei a light slap on the shoulder.
"You're starving after three days without food? Can't you set a good example as a senior?"
"A bunch of gluttons~"
Xie Huan Yue: ???
How did I accidentally hurt him?
"It's okay, senior. According to research data from the Soul Master world, a Soul Master's body has enough energy reserves to support them for several years without starving."
Xie Huan Yue said innocently.
"So missing a meal or two won't kill you."
"You kid take a deep breath, feeling dizzy is normal."
Bei Bei sat behind the chubby Xie Huan Yue, grimacing as he clenched his fists.
"Xiao Xiao?!"
Amidst the playful banter, Wang Dong suddenly exclaimed.
Su Wen looked up in surprise and saw Xiao Xiao's petite figure walk into the cafeteria, head drooping.
Although she was quite far away, judging from her actions and expression, she had probably just finished crying, her eyes still red.
Something seemed off.
"Maybe it's because I transferred classes," Wang Dong said self-reproachfully.
She dragged Xiao Xiao into that mess, thinking that with her there, securing a top-four finish for Xiao Xiao wouldn't be a problem.
But who would have thought it would backfire and harm Xiao Xiao instead?
"I'll go check," she said, instinctively glancing at Su Wen.
The latter nodded and then walked lightly towards Xiao Xiao.
Su Wen raised an eyebrow.
If it were just about not getting the reward, Xiao Xiao might be upset, but definitely not to this extent. Could it be related to Zhou Yi?
Never mind, he shook his head and focused on eating.
...
Night fell.
Inside the dormitory.
After washing up, Wang Dong quickly took off his coat and slipped into the fragrant bed.
During their conversation, the topic of the day suddenly came up.
"Su Wen, everyone says you're from the inner courtyard, do you have that kind of relationship?"
Su Wen paused, "Huh?"
"Well, today I found Xiao Xiao."
Wang Dong then recounted Xiao Xiao's predicament in detail, finally raising his small, white fist, his face full of indignation, "I never imagined Zhou Yi was this kind of person! For the sake of Class One's grades, she actually threatened a disciple with twin martial souls to add a soul ring to his second martial soul so early?! Pah!"
"Also, I never thought that Huo Yuhao was also Zhou Yi's lackey.
I really misjudged him; I even kindly put him in the same group as Xiao Xiao!"
"Huo Yuhao has shown outstanding performance in the Soul Guidance Department, and the department head, Fan Yu, thinks highly of him. Fan Yu is Zhou Yi's husband."
Su Wen said calmly.
"Ah?!"
Wang Dong's eyes widened.
"Hmm, just like you think.
Zhou Yi never looked down on Huo Yuhao because of his low soul power; on the contrary, she always held him in high regard. According to you Xiao Xiao is most likely just a sacrificial lamb."
Su Wen narrowed his eyes, sat cross-legged on his bed, and pondered.
"And the academy's higher-ups are really something. A twin martial soul, and they treat him like this?" Wang Dong complained indignantly.
"The news was probably suppressed by Zhou Yi. That beast is truly ruthless for the sake of grades."
Su Wen shook his head.
In just three months, the new class had already been reduced from one hundred to fifty-four students.
This had nothing to do with strict teaching; it was pure madness.
"Then can you help?"
Wang Dong whispered, "Ahem, if you help, we'll be brothers! When I inherit the Haotian Sect in the future, I'll definitely go to great lengths for you!"
"I can mention Xiao Xiao's talent to the academy."
Su Wen pondered.
He knew Yan Shaozhe's plan.
The fact that Yang He hasn't been eliminated to this day shows that the Dean of the Spirit Department is playing a grand game.
Although Yan Shaozhe is short-sighted in the Spirit Guidance Department competition, he still has the means and courage.
Zhou Yi, a black sheep, has long been on his list, but has been crossed off several times because of her husband, Fan Yu.
Qian Duoduo's title as Shrek's number one Spirit Guidance Master is somewhat undeserved.
If we're really talking about it, Fan Yu is probably the number one in the Spirit Guidance Research World.
His importance to Shrek is self-evident.
Therefore, Yan Shaozhe's plan has been opposed by many elders.
Especially Elder Song, as Xian Lin'er's mother, one of the most senior elders of the Sea God Pavilion, also strongly protected Fan Yu and Zhou Yi.
"Thank you!"
Wang Dong suddenly stood up and bowed to Su Wen.
"..."
Su Wen's lips twitched.
It looked exactly like the scene of the Haotian Sect lads standing at attention.
The sudden standing up caught him off guard.
"Are you going to cultivate tonight?" Su Wen asked softly.
"Hmm~"
The next second, in the darkness, a cold body slipped into the bed, this time on Su Wen's bed.
Wang Dong, wearing his undergarments, said impatiently, "Come!"
A few breaths later, two auras merged, emitting a faint glow. Soul power circulated within their bodies, completing cycle after cycle.
Their meridians subtly became more resilient, and the rate of increase in their soul power visibly increased.
Both sat cross-legged on the bed,as if enveloped in a faint cocoon of light.
