Xiao Wu, who was about to flash in front of him to deliver another kick, froze mid step in surprise.
'That's it? I barely started and he gave up on the 2nd blow? Is he weak or did I go too far?
Isn't he supposed to be strong? What happened?' She thought, confused.
The others watching the high speed battle looked incredulous. Then cheered Xiao Wu unanimously after Tang san declared to concede.
Wang Sheng seeing Xiao Wu and Tang san couldn't help but feel elated.
'That's right, that's how it feels, although I genuinely felt happy to have you Tang San as our Dorm leader, losing to you after knowing your Martial Soul and level, stung.
So, I apologise for celebrating your defeat in my head. But it's truly gratifying to have 2 freaks like you in our Dorm.
Now, that guy Xiao Chenyu or anyone else for that matter won't be able to bully us.' He thought happily,as a smile broke out on his face.
Tang san stood up slowly as he felt a faint ringing in his head after that kick.
'How much force did she use in that kick? Was she trying to send me to the infirmary or something?
No wait, she said she will hold back, so how much did she actually hold back? Is this the power of her beast Martial Soul? Or her strange martial arts.' He thought, horrified yet intrigued at her fighting style.
Xiao Wu feeling proud as the others calling her boss didn't notice Tang san's reaction.
"Xiao Wu, what was that fighting style you used?" Tang San asked.
"It's a mix between the styles taught to me by my brother." She replied without concern, though she still tried her very best not to trip her words so as not to reveal her relationship with Hanrui.
As Tang San was about to continue asking for more information, someone spoke up interrupting him.
"Who is Tang san?" A man holding a quilt spoke up, getting everyone's attention.
"It's me." Tang san replied looking at the man, puzzled.
"Grandmaster sent you this quilt and gave a message to meet him once you are free." The man said and handed over the quilt and left.
Xiao Wu who was about to ask for the quilt froze as a hand held her shoulder from the back.
"Well well,I was wondering where the little rabbit ran off to. So it was here." A voice said from behind her.
Tang San looked at the boy behind Xiao Wu, who held her shoulder, feeling uncomfortable, but when he saw the face of the boy clearly he was stunned.
'Why is this guy here again? Does he know Xiao? And why am I feeling uncomfortable?' He thought, confused.
Xiao Wu laughed awkwardly as she turned her head to look at the boy behind her.
"Brother Li, the weather is so nice today, shall we go out for a walk?" She said, staring into his eyes with a cute face.
"Walk? Little rabbit, do you want to escape your punishment for running away that easily?" The boy said amused,as he pinched her ear playfully, making her yelp and protest weakly.
"Ok ok, stop the drama and come with me." He said, letting her go.
He gave a nod to Wang Sheng and Tang San and walked out. Xiao Wu quickly gave a word to them and followed behind him.
"I'll be back, probably." she said as she waved her hand to them before following after the boy.
'So, the boss is related to that Elder Li? Then aren't we safe for the rest of the semester at the least?' They thought happily, while Wang Sheng felt relieved.
'I feel like a great burden is lifted off my hands,I feel so free. Hmm, my cultivating seems to be stirring. I should go cultivate, who knows I might even level up.' He thought as he sat cross legged on his bed.
Tang San grew curious about the boy and decided to ask his master about it later and started making his bed, while the rest got busy with their own things.
. . .
Shortly after the boy and Xiao Wu reached their quarters and entered inside a sound proofed room.
Xiao Wu instantly dropped her act and called out. "Did I do well, Master Hanrui?"
The boy smiled and nodded as he patted her head. "You did well, Xiao Wu."
Xiao Wu grinned foolishly as she leaned into his pat.
"My observation of our 'Protagonist' went perfectly.
Though, it still puzzles me on how his innate soul power turned from 10 to 7. Everything else seems to be in place."
He said while thinking about what happened during the day.
"That's right, Master,I was wondering the same thing when he told me his soul power.
You said he had fake innate full soul power but his soul power is only at level 8? And he seemed pretty weak too, like why did he concede in just two moves?" She asked equally puzzled over the matter.
"I don't know how weak he is, but, did you forget you are a complete human now, with a soul beast bloodline? And beast martial soul, which makes your body stronger?
Especially when you're a soul master already, while he is still a soul disciple." he said.
'Well technically speaking, you, Bi Ji and Zi Ji are completely different species now.
After taking the Transformation Pill you three have the ability to transform back into a soul beast.
Making your bodies stronger than regular people with beast Martial Soul, let alone a tool type Martial Soul like Tang san who is malnourished all this time.
But that's besides the point here. Because you little rabbit, still can't access your beast form yet.' He mused as he ruffled her hair playfully.
"Leave that aside, what were you gonna do when I showed up earlier? Your eyes are staring at something with stars in them." He asked playfully, making her freeze and look away guiltily.
.....
A/N: I didn't include any bias or hatred towards Tang San from MC so far, because i genuinely felt this version of Tang san or Tang San at this point is still a child who was taught wrong and went on a wrong path.
Unlike hypocrites like Tang Hao,Yu Xiaogong, Asura God and so on who i already have plans for, i left Tang san's "sentence" open until now.
Let's see where the story i write takes him in this fanfic.
Extra Note: This is not a Translation. I only had the beginning and ending of the fanfic in my mind when i started writing this fic.
I'm writing this fic without a "plan". I somehow recall jack sparrow. "Make up things as you go along" when i think about making a plan. 😂
please 🙏 hit me with your strongest Power Stones, let me feel the support to continue this fic.
Thank you for supporting me "Matias_suazo_jara & Gilly1210"
