"No, you're Ye Chen from Ninth Class? That Soul Ancestor Ye Chen?"
Suddenly, Long San reacted, his eyes widening in disbelief as he looked at Ye Chen.
He never would have imagined that his roommate was the Newcomer King among the Outer Courtyard's new students!
"Yes, it's me."
Ye Chen nodded with a smile, "But I actually came here today because I have something to trouble you with."
"Haha, Boss, whatever you need, just say the word! As long as I, Long San, can do it, I'll try my best to help!" Long San patted his muscular chest and laughed heartily.
Clearly, in his opinion, being able to know a super monster like Ye Chen was already a great honor.
If he could help Ye Chen, he would be doing him a favor, and he was naturally willing.
Hearing this, Ye Chen felt a little relieved and explained, "My friend Wang Dong and I aren't in the same dormitory, but because of a special reason with our Martial Souls, cultivating together allows us to accelerate our cultivation. So, could my roommate switch dorms with you?"
"You and your roommate…"
Long San's gaze then fell on Wang Dong.
He didn't know Wang Dong, but he had to admit, Wang Dong was indeed a pretty boy, even paler than Ye Chen…
And in his opinion, such pretty boys were no different from sissies.
Suddenly, Long San seemed to think of something incredible, his eyes darting back and forth between Ye Chen and Wang Dong.
"Damn it, Long San, don't guess wildly! Wang Dong and I are purely Martial Soul compatible, that's all…" Ye Chen's face darkened!
He didn't like men; he only liked soft, fragrant girls.
It was all Wang Dong's fault!
Why did she have to dress as a man!
It made him get misunderstood!
"Don't worry, I understand, I understand."
Long San gave Ye Chen an "I get it" look, then turned to Wang Dong and said, "Give me the key. We'll switch dorms now."
At the same time, Long San secretly felt it was a pity.
"Oh…"
Wang Dong looked bewildered, clearly not understanding what Long San's look meant, nor why Ye Chen's face was dark, as if he was unhappy.
However, she was very happy that Long San was willing to switch dorms.
This way, she could leech off Ye Chen's "secret method" every day to increase her cultivation speed.
Soaring to the sky was just around the corner!
…
…
Because of the Soul Guidance Device for storage, and since their dorms were diagonally opposite, the two completed the dorm switch in less than five minutes.
However, as a thank you, Wang Dong still paid the other party 500 gold soul coins as compensation.
Although the school rules stated that arbitrary dorm changes were not allowed, they didn't mention any penalties. Clearly, this was just a simple restriction.
Moreover, dorm keys and student badges weren't bound together. If they secretly swapped keys and no one reported it, the dorm supervisor wouldn't know.
After all, there were over a thousand new students, so the dorm supervisor naturally couldn't know everyone's room number.
Although Huo Yuhao had character flaws, he was definitely not the type to tattle.
After switching rooms, Wang Dong took out a bottle of perfume and sprayed it continuously throughout the room.
"Wang Dong, you're a boy, why are you spraying perfume…?" Ye Chen pretended to be speechless.
"Hmph, what do you know? This is a deodorizer. This room has been lived in by others; it smells funky, so I definitely need to get rid of the smell."
Wang Dong huffed.
Saying that, she even stuck out her butt, walking around the room, not missing a single corner.
And Wang Dong slept on the new bed, while the one Long San had slept on was left for Ye Chen.
Ye Chen didn't mind. He simply wiped it down, laid out his mattress, and lay down.
His system storage space was very large, and he had already prepared new bedding.
However, the room was still simple, with only basic tables and chairs, and the window was a bit drafty.
Fortunately, there were no entertainment facilities or electrical appliances in this world, and the only purpose of a dormitory was to sleep and cultivate, so this was considered quite normal.
Soon, Wang Dong finished cleaning the room.
Coupled with the room being well-ventilated, Ye Chen sniffed and indeed, that strange odor had completely disappeared, leaving only a very faint, natural fragrance. It was indeed much more comfortable to live in.
It had to be said, Wang Dong certainly knew how to enjoy herself.
"Ye Chen, have you rested well? When can we cultivate together tonight~"
Wang Dong suddenly leaned in front of Ye Chen at this moment, looking at him eagerly.
Clearly, that surge in cultivation speed had made her very addicted, and the originally tedious cultivation now made her somewhat impatient.
"I already said that performing the secret method consumes a lot. Let's talk about it tonight." Ye Chen glanced at Wang Dong, pretending to be speechless.
Of course, Ye Chen's words were a lie to Wang Dong.
As the saying goes, the easier something is to get, the less it's cherished.
Ye Chen was deliberately baiting Wang Dong, purposely making this secret method sound like it had a great "cost," so that Wang Dong would be grateful to him and they could have more in-depth interactions.
Ye Chen also understood Wang Dong's anxious state at this moment.
It was like a very powerful "cheat." If one cleared the game instantly, the player would quickly lose interest in the game.
But if this "cheat" required a long cooldown time and had limitations, then the player would have anticipation every day and would try their best to reduce the cheat's cooldown time.
Wang Dong was like this, wanting to provide Ye Chen with all sorts of treasures to help Ye Chen recover quickly, so they could cultivate together sooner.
"Alright…"
Wang Dong was helpless and could only wait with difficulty, her heart itching.
"Alright, I have something else to do, I'm leaving now and will be back tonight." Ye Chen waved his hand and turned to leave.
The hook had already caught Wang Dong, so Ye Chen wasn't in a hurry.
He had also made plans to eat with Wu Feng and Ning Tian in the afternoon…
…
Evening.
Huo Yuhao weighed the heavy money bag in his hand, feeling delighted.
Earning money was truly wonderful.
However, he was still holding two skewers of grilled fish, which were for his roommate, Wang Dong.
Although Wang Dong was a bit tsundere, he was quite cute and a cheerful, sunny young man.
"Wang Dong, I'm back~"
Huo Yuhao opened the door with his key, then instantly froze.
He didn't see Wang Dong's originally clean, soft, and pink bed, nor did he see the adorable Wang Dong.
Instead, he saw a giant man with a bare torso and bulging muscles…
"Who are you! This is Wang Dong's and my dorm. Why are you sitting on Wang Dong's bed?"
Huo Yuhao frowned sharply, a bad premonition in his heart.
"Oh, you mean that guy? He switched dorms with me and is living with another boy now. I'm your roommate now."
Long San replied casually, a strange look in his eyes as he looked at Huo Yuhao.
Indeed, pretty boys and pretty boys were birds of a feather. Someone like Huo Yuhao really wasn't appealing to them.
