Douluo Continent - time traveler meets the time traveler

As Old Jack was about to leave, he turned to Tang San and spoke a few more words of advice, emphasizing the importance of diligence and perseverance in his studies. He encouraged Tang San to make the most of this opportunity and become a great soul master. Tang San nodded, expressing his determination to work hard.

The master, witnessing this exchange, glanced at the concierge lightly and said, "This is the first and last warning. If you repeat your misconduct, you will not be allowed to stay." His voice, hoarse yet composed, carried an unmistakable air of authority.

The concierge, drenched in sweat, hastily stepped aside in response to the master's words, his face pale with fear.

The master then turned his attention to Tang San, a faint smile appearing on his face. His facial muscles seemed slightly stiff, rendering his smile a bit awkward. Taking hold of Tang San's hand, he said, "Let's go inside."

The master's hands were soft and dry, creating a comforting sensation as Tang San held onto them. It instilled a sense of trust within Tang San as the master led him into the academy, marking the beginning of his journey within its walls.

After All Tangsan knows about this is the Good for nothing Master.

But After All He Helped him and grandpa Jack So Tangsan Politely Said,

"Teacher, thank you," Tang San expressed his gratitude to the master.

The master looked down at Tang San and replied calmly, "I'm not a teacher of the academy."

After Seeing this That Master is about follow old routine of the Novel, So For not imbarissing the Situation, Tangsan Tried to avoid the situation.

Tang San Said, "oh, then God By Mister, I am getting late today, we will meet some day."

The master nodded Awakardly, said "Of course, we may cross paths again in the future. Take care and farewell for now."

To say goodbye to Old Jack, Tang San made his way to the entrance of the dormitory building.

There was only one dormitory building, so it wasn't difficult to locate. It served as the living quarters for both the students and teachers of the college. As Old Jack mentioned, becoming a soul master was no easy feat, especially in a remote city like Notting.

The college had a relatively small population of students and teachers, easily accommodated within the dormitory building. There were a total of seven dormitories for the students. Due to the young age of the Junior Soul Master Academy students, they were grouped together by grade and lived in large dormitories. In each grade, there were around forty students at the Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy.

The lower three floors of the dormitory building housed the seven large dormitories where students resided, each under the supervision of a teacher.

Among the seven student dormitories, House No. 7 held a special status, with the poorest conditions. It was specifically designated for work-study students.

The No. 7 dormitory was unique in that it housed students of different ages. Regardless of their grades, all work-study students resided there.

As Tang San approached the door of Qishe, he could hear noises coming from inside. The door was open, so he walked over and peeked inside.

"It's quite late. If things haven't deviated from the original book, Xiao Wu should have arrived earlier and become the boss of Qishe. But why is there so much commotion now?" Tang San wondered. He pushed open the door to Qishe's room.

Inside, he found a spacious room, almost 300 square meters in size. There were a total of fifty beds, but only twelve had bedding. At the moment, seven beds were occupied by eight lively children, aged between eight and twelve.

Beside them stood two children, both around six years old. The boy was handsome, while the girl, with her long scorpion-tail braid, was undeniably Xiao Wu from the original book.

But who was that boy?

Tang San carefully scanned the room once again and noticed that two beds were placed together, covered with brand new quilts.

With an intense gaze, Tang San began to comprehend that this person seemed to be a time traveler just like himself. Not only that, but this person also seemed to have taken possession of Tang San's original destiny, making it Tang San's "opportunity" now.

For Tang San, as a modern adult, he didn't view Xiao Wu in the same light as in the original novel. He didn't have any romantic feelings for her at this point, and there was no emotional connection between them.

Moreover, Tang San recognized that it would be inappropriate and even alarming to force any kind of relationship with a little girl. He understood that he had no right to interfere in other people's affairs.

Although Tang San and Xiao Wu were a couple in the novel, the current situation was reality, and their circumstances were different.

Even if the other person was a fellow time traveler who arrived earlier, Tang San couldn't accuse him of taking advantage. Furthermore, Tang San was already an adult who had entered society, while the other person, judging by their appearance, was still a child. Their innocence and lack of worldly experience were evident.

"Brother Hao, can you show us your martial spirit? I heard you already obtained your first spirit ring!" one of the taller children, who was about two heads taller than Tang San, asked the boy next to Xiao Wu with an envious look.

"Wang Sheng, it's getting late. Let's rest for now, and tomorrow I'll show you my martial soul and my first soul ring. Then I can demonstrate my first soul skill," the boy known as Brother Hao replied, looking somewhat dismissive. He turned his attention to chatting and laughing with Xiao Wu.

"It's a bit childish. This Li Hao..." Tang San couldn't help but form a better understanding of this Brother Hao.

Tang San knocked on the door, catching the attention of the children who were engaged in conversation. They turned their gazes toward him, approaching him one by one. They noticed Tang San's patched attire and seemed curious.

Wang Sheng asked, "Are you a new work-study student too? Why are you here so late?"

Tang San nodded and replied, "Yes, I'm a work-study student. I arrived late because the grandfather of the village chief who sent me here was delayed on the way."

Without hesitation, Tang San shifted the responsibility to Old Jack. He didn't feel burdened by it, as it would be embarrassing to admit that he had passed out for some reason along the way.

"Boss, teach him a lesson," Wang Sheng suddenly turned his head and said to Xiao Wu, who had her hair braided into a scorpion-tail. "That's the tradition in Qishe."

Tang San glanced at the boy around his age and then looked at Xiao Wu.

"It seems that Xiao Wu is still the same as in the original book. She's the boss, and maybe she has already dealt with the time traveler who arrived before me," he thought to himself.

Tang San spoke up, "No, I don't mind who the boss is. I don't want to be the boss. The position is up to you."

Xiao Wu walked over, getting close to Tang San's face, almost touching his eyes.

"Don't get so close, it's a bit unsettling," Tang San took a few steps back and said calmly, "Besides, I'm not interested in little girls."

Xiao Wu suddenly became angry, but in that moment, she looked somewhat adorable, making it hard for anyone to resist wanting to appease her.

"You brat, this is the first time someone has called me scary-looking. Could it be a problem with my sense of beauty?" Xiao Wu looked skeptical and turned to the time traveler, asking, "What do you think, Li Hao?" His name is Li Hao... Another day...

Li Hao quickly smiled and said, "How could it be? Miss Xiao Wu is the most beautiful."

"See, everyone else agrees," Xiao Wu proudly tilted her head fifteen degrees and fixed her gaze on Tang San.

Tang San shook his head and said, "I think anyone would feel a little uneasy when someone suddenly gets so close."

Xiao Wu gritted her teeth angrily and said fiercely, "Li Hao, this guy is too infuriating. You deal with him."

From Xiao Wu's perspective, someone like Tang San wasn't worth her effort, and she believed that Li Hao could handle him perfectly fine.

Li Hao immediately stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Xiao Wu, and said to Tang San, "Miss Xiao Wu is right. I'll be the one to fight you."

Was a battle inevitable? But this Li Hao seemed like a sycophant...

Although the momentary anxious look of protecting Xiao Wu was fleeting, Tang San caught it with his Purple Demon Eyes.

"Fine, I agree. Let's get started quickly. Everyone has things to do tomorrow," Tang San yawned, clearly showing that he didn't take Li Hao seriously.

Li Hao felt a surge of anger. Tang San wasn't taking him seriously, but as a modern time traveler, he felt superior to Tang San. However, he had to be cautious since Tang San was his opponent.

"How about we make a bet before we begin?" Li Hao proposed, "If you lose, how about you lend me your most precious possession?" In Li Hao's eyes, Tang San's most valuable possession was simply Tang San himself.

Tang San's eyes narrowed as he fully confirmed the other person's identity as a fellow time traveler. The way they cultivated spirit power matched the native meditation method of the Douluo Continent.

He wanted to obtain the cultivation method of the Xuantian Gong from Tang San!

Tang San's gaze turned sharp as he asked, "What will you give me if you lose?"

For some reason, Li Hao suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, and cold sweat formed on his forehead.

The Tang Sect's cheats, the secrets of Tang San's original book, were not passed on to anyone else in Shrek Academy, including Xiao Wu. They were only imparted to disciples for cultivation after the establishment of the Tang Sect.

As for Li Hao, Tang San saw a way to eliminate him now.

However, it wasn't the right time. Tang San knew that if Li Hao died in front of everyone, it would definitely implicate him.

"Tang San, you didn't bring any bedding," Li Hao said calmly. "If you win, I can lend you money to buy it, and you don't have to pay it back. How about that?" Others might not notice, but Tang San started to feel that Li Hao was a bit conniving. He was clearly wealthy enough to buy bedding, yet he insisted on sharing a bed with Xiao Wu. It was more than just being conniving.

Perhaps if Xiao Wu had spoken first, it would have been different, but Tang San could easily buy another set of bedding when he earned enough money.

"Alright, since you're willing to provide the money, I'm willing to accept. But looking at you, it doesn't seem like you're short of money. Why did you come to Qishe?" Tang San wore a smile on his face.

If you didn't come to Qishe, how would you deal with the protagonist? How did you meet Xiao Wu?

Li Hao muttered to himself inwardly, realizing that he also needed to obtain the cultivation method of Xuantian Kungfu!

Tang San remained composed as he observed Li Hao's actions and listened to his inner musings. It was clear that Li Hao believed himself to be the main character and saw obtaining the Xuantian Kungfu as a means to increase his cultivation speed. What he lacked was an advanced method to enhance his soul power.

"Quit babbling and show me what you've got!" Tang San retorted, urging Li Hao to demonstrate his abilities.

Li Hao shouted, unleashing his martial soul. Blue lightning crackled from his palm, accompanied by the appearance of a yellow soul ring that enveloped his body.

"A century-old soul ring!" Tang San exclaimed, recognizing the significance of Li Hao's achievement.
