News spread quickly throughout Notting Junior Spirit Master Academy.
Especially among children.
By noon, nearly the entire academy knew about the challenge.
The work-study students of Dormitory Seven had challenged Xiao Chenyu.
And the challenger was a newly enrolled first-year girl.
For many students, this was unbelievable.
Work-study students were usually the ones being bullied.
Nobody expected them to fight back.
Meanwhile—
The mastermind behind the entire affair was currently sleeping beneath a tree.
Lin Yuan lay comfortably in the shade.
One arm served as a pillow while a blade of grass hung from his mouth.
Several passing students looked at him strangely.
A major battle was about to happen.
Yet this fellow appeared completely unconcerned.
Not far away, Tang San quietly cultivated.
Beside him, Xiao Wu continuously practiced punches.
“Hmph.”
“That Xiao Chenyu is finished.”
Tang San opened his eyes.
“You shouldn’t underestimate him.”
“He’s still a Spirit Master.”
Xiao Wu puffed out her cheeks.
“So am I.”
Tang San smiled helplessly.
That was true.
At that moment, Lin Yuan suddenly spoke.
“Just don’t hit him too hard.”
Xiao Wu blinked.
“Why?”
Lin Yuan didn’t even open his eyes.
“If you beat him too badly, the teachers might stop the fight.”
Tang San’s gaze flickered.
Even while pretending to sleep, this guy was constantly observing everything.
Xiao Wu nodded seriously.
“That makes sense.”
Then she narrowed her eyes.
“Wait.”
“Why do I feel like you’re enjoying this?”
Lin Yuan smiled lazily.
“Watching arrogant people get beaten is entertaining.”
Tang San fell silent.
As expected.
This answer was perfectly in character.
…
Afternoon.
The academy training ground was unusually lively.
Students gathered from every grade.
Even some teachers came to watch.
In the center of the field stood Xiao Chenyu and several followers.
His expression remained arrogant as ever.
Soon, the students of Dormitory Seven arrived.
Xiao Wu walked at the front.
Tang San followed calmly behind her.
The crowd immediately became excited.
“They’re here!”
“That’s Xiao Chenyu!”
“That little girl is the challenger?”
“Can she really win?”
Discussions erupted everywhere.
Xiao Chenyu sneered when he saw Xiao Wu.
“You still have time to surrender.”
Xiao Wu rolled her eyes.
“Stop talking.”
“Hurry up and fight.”
The crowd burst into laughter.
Xiao Chenyu’s face darkened instantly.
A teacher stepped forward.
“Both sides prepare.”
The surroundings gradually quieted.
The teacher raised his hand.
“The duel begins!”
Boom!
Spirit power erupted.
A white spirit ring rose beneath Xiao Chenyu’s feet.
A gray wolf phantom appeared behind him.
Wolf Martial Soul.
At the same time—
A yellow spirit ring appeared beneath Xiao Wu’s feet.
Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul.
Two long rabbit ears emerged from her head.
The crowd immediately gasped.
“A yellow spirit ring!”
“She’s also a Spirit Master!”
Even Xiao Chenyu looked surprised.
However, the battle had already begun.
With a roar, he charged forward.
His speed exceeded that of ordinary children.
Unfortunately—
His opponent was Xiao Wu.
Instead of retreating, she rushed forward as well.
Bang!
The instant they collided, Xiao Chenyu’s expression changed.
A terrifying force erupted from Xiao Wu’s small body.
Before he could react—
Xiao Wu jumped gracefully.
Her legs wrapped around his neck.
“What?!”
The next moment—
She twisted her waist.
Boom!
Xiao Chenyu was thrown directly into the ground.
Dust flew everywhere.
The crowd instantly fell silent.
Xiao Chenyu struggled to stand.
His eyes were filled with shock.
Meanwhile, Xiao Wu landed lightly.
Completely unharmed.
“Too weak.”
The surrounding students stared in disbelief.
The academy boss was being suppressed.
Xiao Chenyu gritted his teeth.
With an angry roar, he attacked once more.
His spirit ring lit up.
His first soul skill activated.
His body immediately became stronger.
However—
The difference between them remained obvious.
Xiao Wu moved like a nimble rabbit.
Every attack missed.
Every counterattack landed.
After several exchanges—
She suddenly appeared behind him.
Then—
Kick!
Xiao Chenyu flew directly out of the combat area.
Thud!
He rolled across the ground several times.
Silence.
Complete silence.
A few seconds later—
The students of Dormitory Seven erupted into cheers.
“We won!”
“Boss Xiao Wu!”
“Boss Xiao Wu!”
The atmosphere instantly became lively.
Xiao Chenyu sat on the ground blankly.
He still couldn’t believe he had lost.
Xiao Wu placed both hands on her waist.
A triumphant smile appeared on her face.
“So?”
“Who’s the boss now?”
The surrounding students looked at each other.
According to academy tradition—
The winner became the new boss.
From this day onward—
The title of Academy Boss belonged to Xiao Wu.
Not far away, Lin Yuan lazily clapped twice.
“Not bad.”
Xiao Wu snorted proudly.
“Of course.”
Then she pointed at him.
“But this guy was the one who arranged everything.”
Countless gazes immediately landed on Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan merely shrugged.
“Delegating work is an important life skill.”
Tang San: “…”
Sometimes he genuinely wondered how Lin Yuan could say such things with a straight face.
