Chapter 132: Xiao Wu Offers Herself, Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang’s Appearance
As Lin Qingmo pushed open the dormitory door, a pink figure threw herself directly into his arms.
"Qingmo!"
Xiao Wu hugged him tightly, tilting her face up to kiss him.
Lin Qingmo was startled and hurriedly pressed down on her shoulders.
"Wait, what’s wrong with you, Xiao Wu?"
This girl was acting far too strangely today.
Although she was usually clingy, she had never been this forward.
Xiao Wu, however, paid no heed and burrowed further into his embrace.
"I want to give myself to you."
She spoke very seriously, her eyes sparkling, her cheeks flushed.
Lin Qingmo stood frozen in place, his mind a complete blank.
What was going on? Why was she suddenly saying this?
Xiao Wu bit her lip, her voice dropping lower.
"I’ve just figured it out. I like you, I really, really like you. So..."
Actually, she wasn’t telling the whole truth.
What truly spurred her on was the matter of Lin Qingmo’s master, Bibi Dong.
That woman would stop at nothing for power, even willing to exploit emotions.
Xiao Wu was scared.
She feared that one day she might also face such a choice, feared losing the most important person.
So she decided it was better to seize happiness now.
Looking at the determined light in Xiao Wu’s eyes, the doubts in Lin Qingmo’s heart slowly faded.
Although he didn’t know exactly what had happened, this girl was always straightforward and pure, not one to play games.
Since she had gone this far—
"Alright."
...Xiao Wu was simply a natural talent in this area.
When Lin Qingmo woke up the next morning, this was the only thought in his head.
This girl usually looked cute and adorable, who would have thought... He turned his head to look at Xiao Wu, still fast asleep, and couldn’t help but smile.
She was curled up under the blanket, only half her face visible, her long eyelashes resting as she slept soundly.
Sunlight streamed through the window, falling on her face.
Lin Qingmo got up quietly, afraid of waking her.
But Xiao Wu still woke up, opening her eyes blearily.
"A-Qing..."
Her voice was soft, carrying the languor of just waking up.
Lin Qingmo leaned down and kissed her forehead.
"Sleep a little longer."
Xiao Wu shook her head and sat up instead.
The blanket slipped down, revealing her smooth shoulders.
Her face flushed red, and she hurriedly pulled the blanket back up, stealing a glance at Lin Qingmo.
The moment their eyes met, they both couldn’t help but laugh.
That feeling was strange.
Clearly, nothing had changed, yet it seemed like everything had.
A new, indescribable intimacy existed between them, a single glance enough to understand what the other was thinking.
"A-Qing, I think I’ve had a Breakthrough."
Xiao Wu suddenly said.
She focused on the spirit power within her body and was surprised to find it had actually increased by one level, reaching level 38.
Xiao Wu’s complexion had indeed become much better.
Fair and smooth, glowing with a healthy radiance.
She looked refreshed and full of vitality, her eyes sparkling with an indescribable charm.
Even she was startled when she looked in the mirror.
"Is this still me?"
She touched her face in the mirror, hardly able to believe it.
Lin Qingmo turned and picked her up: "Let’s go, time for breakfast."
Xiao Wu gasped in surprise, giggling as she wrapped her arms around his neck... Morning.
Flender called all of Shrek’s Freaks to the training field.
The moment Ning Rongrong arrived, she sensed something was off.
Xiao Wu and Lin Qingmo were standing together, the distance between them noticeably closer than before.
Not a physical distance, but an aura.
It was as if there was an invisible bond between them; a glance, a subtle movement, all revealed an extraordinary level of understanding.
Moreover, Xiao Wu’s transformation was too great.
Her complexion was fair with a rosy glow, her eyes sparkling, her whole person radiant.
Just standing there, she attracted quite a few gazes.
Tang San’s eyes were practically glued to her, unable to look away.
He felt Xiao Wu looked especially beautiful today, beautiful enough to make his heart race.
"Xiao Wu, what skincare product did you use?"
Ning Rongrong moved closer and asked curiously.
She was, after all, the Young Miss of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. There wasn’t a skincare product she hadn’t seen, but one with such an effect was a first.
"Uh!"
Xiao Wu’s face flushed instantly. She stole a glance at Lin Qingmo and stammered, unable to get a word out.
She couldn’t possibly tell the truth, could she?
Her reaction only deepened Ning Rongrong’s confusion. Just as she was about to press further, Flender’s voice came over.
"Everyone here?"
Everyone turned to see Flender walking over with a thin, middle-aged man.
The man wore simple cloth clothes, stood very straight, and wore an expression of feigned profundity.
He swept his gaze over the group, letting it linger on Lin Qingmo for a few extra seconds, frowning slightly, before finally settling on Tang San.
"Let me introduce everyone."
Flender patted the man’s shoulder.
"This is the new teacher, Yu Xiaogang. You can call him Grandmaster."
"He is very knowledgeable in Spirit Master theory, the founder of the Ten Great Spirit Master Theories."
Yu Xiaogang smiled slightly, ready to receive the group’s admiring looks.
However, what he got was silence.
Dai Mubai frowned.
Ma Hongjun looked utterly bewildered.
Oscar rubbed his nose.
Zhu Zhuqing remained completely expressionless.
Ning Rongrong looked Yu Xiaogang up and down, her eyes filled with skepticism.
Only Tang San, whose gaze was still stuck on Xiao Wu, suddenly became excited.
"Teacher!"
Upon seeing Yu Xiaogang, he called out and quickly stepped forward.
Yu Xiaogang nodded with satisfaction and patted his shoulder.
"Little San, it’s been a long time."
Ma Hongjun lowered his voice and asked Oscar, "Is this guy really Tang San’s teacher?"
Oscar shrugged, indicating he didn’t know either.
Dai Mubai’s expression darkened.
He had high standards for teachers; not just anyone could teach him.
This Yu Xiaogang before them looked utterly ordinary, his spirit power fluctuations weren’t strong either. Did he really have the skill to be their teacher?
Yu Xiaogang also sensed the unusual atmosphere.
What was going on?
He thought to himself: Shouldn’t these people be shocked when they hear my name?
I am the Grandmaster of theory, I taught a Genius student like Tang San. Why do they look so indifferent?
Little did he know, after witnessing Lin Qingmo’s strength, Shrek’s Freaks’ standard for "Genius" had already been raised very high.
Without comparison, there is no harm.
Yu Xiaogang decided to showcase his own capabilities.
He cleared his throat and looked at Tang San.
"Little San, what level are you at now? What’s your spirit ring configuration like?"
Tang San puffed out his chest and answered confidently, "Your student has already reached level 31. The third spirit ring is from a two-thousand-year Man Faced Demon Spider."
"Two thousand years?!"
Yu Xiaogang’s eyes lit up, his voice rising with excitement.
The theoretical limit for a third spirit ring was one thousand seven hundred and sixty years. Tang San had actually absorbed one beyond the limit!
Moreover, the Man Faced Demon Spiderspirit ring was precisely the one he theorized was most suitable for Little San’s Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.
It could greatly add a potent venom attribute.
Perfect!
Absolutely perfect!
He looked proudly at the group, his expression seeming to say: See, this is the student I taught.
"You may not know me."
Yu Xiaogang began speaking loftily, preparing to give a self-introduction.
Ning Rongrong, however, cut him off directly.
"We know you. Aren’t you Yu Xiaogang from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? I heard you still haven’t broken through level 30?"
She said it very casually.
But as soon as the words left her mouth, everyone stared wide-eyed.
Ma Hongjun let out a "pfft" of laughter.
He quickly covered his mouth, but his shoulders were still shaking.
Dai Mubai’s frown deepened, and even Oscar showed a look of surprise.
Hasn’t broken through level 30?
That would make him a Spirit Grandmaster.
A Spirit Grandmaster coming to teach them?
