Chapter 72: Do You Know Where the Girls' Dormitory Is?

After Tang San saw Zhao Wuji nod, his right hand turned jade white. His fingers swiftly tapped several points on one of Zhao Wuji's injuries. Using the Crane Controlling and Dragon Capturing technique, he applied some force, and a golden needle tip started to emerge from under the skin.

Tang San grabbed the tip and pulled hard, extracting a Dragon Whisker Needle.

Zhao Wuji was enduring extreme pain. Once the needle entered his body, it curled up and got tangled with his skin and muscles. The excruciating pain from removing it caused even the usually stoic Zhao Wuji to flinch.

After Tang San removed the needle from Zhao Wuji's abdomen, steam rose from Zhao Wuji's body, and he was drenched in sweat from the intense pain. However, he remained strong and didn't make a sound.

Tang San's face turned pale after the procedure. It was obvious that the process had taken a toll on him.

Even though he was exhausted, Tang San saved some of his spirit power so that he wouldn't faint.

Seeing Tang San's condition, Zhao Wuji said nothing more. He simply left with a comment, "Get some rest."

Although Zhao Wuji was still in considerable discomfort, there wasn't much more he could do with Tang San in this state. All he wanted now was to rush back and check if his bloody urine issue had improved—it had been a terrifying experience.

Yun Feng and the others, seeing that there was nothing more to watch, turned to Oscar and said:

"Let's head out and give Tang San some time to rest."

Yun Feng's words were met with clear reluctance from Dai Mubai and Oscar, but since Yun Feng was present, they didn't voice their complaints. However, their eyes still revealed some dissatisfaction.

In their hearts, this was the perfect time to get back at Tang San, but with Yun Feng around and Zhao Wuji still needing Tang San's help with his recovery, they didn't dare to make a move just yet.

However, they were deeply frustrated. After all, they had suffered so much, while Tang San seemed completely unaffected. It just didn't sit well with them!

Yun Feng noticed their expressions but only smiled to himself without saying anything. He wasn't particularly aligned with them anyway—he had his own reasons for being here.

Once they were outside, Yun Feng turned to Oscar and Dai Mubai and asked:

"Do you know where the girls' dormitory is?"

Dai Mubai thought for a moment, a trace of melancholy in his eyes, but he answered:

"If you go left from our dormitory for about thirty meters, there's a wooden cabin. That's where Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu, and Ning Rongrong live. But I should remind you, the academy has strict rules about male students disturbing female students. The consequences can be serious. Shrek Academy occupies about a third of this village, while the other part is where the villagers live, so try not to go there unless necessary."

Shrek Academy wasn't wealthy, and the entire campus was just a small section of the village with simple wooden houses previously occupied by villagers. Fortunately, it was close to Soto City, making it convenient for purchasing supplies.

As for Dai Mubai's warning, Yun Feng didn't pay much attention. "No unnecessary disturbance"? He wasn't planning to cause trouble—surely the academy wouldn't concern itself with something like this, right?

Yun Feng left Dai Mubai and Oscar and headed straight for the girls' dormitory. In truth, Yun Feng was a bit hungry by now, but he figured he should check on Xiao Wu first. After all, she was badly injured yesterday, and it was only right for him to visit, regardless of his role.

Soon, Yun Feng arrived outside Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's dormitory. Should he go in? It didn't seem appropriate; after all, he didn't want to be mistaken for a troublemaker, especially since there were two people inside.

After hesitating for a moment, Yun Feng decided not to go in. Instead, he softly called out:

"Xiao Wu, are you feeling better?"

It didn't take long before the door opened, and Xiao Wu stepped out. She was wearing the same outfit as yesterday. Aside from her slightly pale complexion, she seemed fine.

Seeing her, Yun Feng let out a sigh of relief.

"How are you feeling, Xiao Wu?"

Xiao Wu made a gesture for Yun Feng to keep quiet.

"Rongrong is still meditating; don't disturb her. Let's talk elsewhere."

For some reason, Yun Feng felt that Xiao Wu was looking at him more intensely than usual today, though he couldn't quite pinpoint what had changed. Was it because he stood up for her yesterday? But that didn't seem right—Tang San had helped her too.

As it turned out, Xiao Wu had woken up in the middle of the night from her coma. Worried about her, Ning Rongrong had stayed by her side the entire time.

After hearing Xiao Wu's explanation, Yun Feng couldn't help but admire Ning Rongrong's kindness. She might seem spoiled, but deep down, she was a good person. Looking after a girl she barely knew, someone she had only met once, said a lot about her character.

Yun Feng smiled and patted Xiao Wu on the head before saying:

"You should thank her. She took care of you all night."

Xiao Wu nodded seriously.

"Of course!"

Inside the room, Ning Rongrong had finished her meditation. Hearing Yun Feng's voice, she smiled slightly, placing a hand on her chest and murmuring to herself:

"This feeling is actually quite nice!"

Yun Feng turned to Xiao Wu and said:

"Sorry about yesterday. I should've tried harder so you wouldn't get hurt. I didn't expect things to turn out that way."

Xiao Wu shook her head and stuck out her cute pink tongue.

"That teacher was really strong. It's not your fault. This place is so different from Notting Academy—everyone here is so powerful. Thankfully, we didn't run into someone at the level of a Soul Douluo!"

Yun Feng ignored the last part of her statement, knowing Xiao Wu's true identity, so there was no need to ask further.

He didn't say much more, and instead took Xiao Wu's soft hand, saying:

"Let's go find something to eat. You must be hungry too."

"Sure, I'm starving."

Xiao Wu nodded, her cheerful spirit restored as she playfully linked arms with Yun Feng.

Just as Yun Feng and Xiao Wu were about to leave, the doors to two rooms suddenly opened. Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong stepped out simultaneously. After exchanging glances, they both looked at Yun Feng and Xiao Wu and said:

"Take us with you."

Yun Feng didn't mind, but Xiao Wu, feeling a little shy under their gaze, released Yun Feng's arm and walked over to join Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong.
