CH 5: 7th dorm

The rest went just like the original, with Yu Xiaogang and Tang San chatting a little before Yu Xiaogang brought up the subject of not just Tang San having twin martial souls, but Ali as well. After he suddenly brought up how they were the third and fourth people who have twin martial souls, he began to explain how he had figured it out. Something along the lines of having investigated nearly 650 people with Blue Silver Grass and only about 15 or so of them having soul power.

And among them, none has had a soul power of more than level 1. And according to one of his 10 Core Competing Power of martial soul, the quality of his martial soul wouldn't satisfy the amount of Tang San's soul power.

So he came to a conclusion that he has another martial soul, a very strong one at that. And when it came to Ali, he said that since his martial soul may be a shield or a defensive martial soul that has mutated into the weaker direction, there's no way that he would be born with full soul power.

And just like what he said to Tang San, since the quality of Ali's martial soul wouldn't satisfy the amount of soul power, it means that he also has another martial soul which is very strong. Tang San was surprised to hear that Ali also had another martial soul, and Ali had to act like he was surprised when he heard that it was the same for Tang San.

Tang San who didn't want his secret to be exposed, said that there can always be exceptions, but Yu Xiaogang explained that among the people who were born with full soul power, all of them have had strong martial souls, and the only exception between them was that a few of them had mutated martial souls.

And since none of them had a mutated Blue Silver Grass, and that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was just an ordinary one, he was positive that his assumption was correct. After Tang San asked what a mutated martial soul is and Yu Xiaogang explained, Tang San directly kneeled on the ground in front of him and kowtowed three times while Ali just sat on a bench.

Tang San :"Please accept me as your apprentice."

Yu Xiaogang :"*Chuckling* Silly kid, why did you have to kowtow? *Helping him up* Don't you know this can only be used towards the king and your parents? You only need to bow."

Tang San :"*Bowing* Once a teacher, always a teacher. You deserve my kowtow."

After a few moments of just smiling at each, which Ali got major gay vibes from, but didn't make fun of or discriminate since he wasn't a narrow minded person, Tang San turned to him with a smile :"Ali, why don't you accept master as your master as well. With his knowledge, I'm sure that we will reach great heights."

Ali stood up as he shook his head with a neutral face :"I'm sorry, but I won't. Please don't think that I'm trying to be rude, but the subject of accepting a master isn't a simple one. I won't become someone's disciple when I don't know anything about the other person.

Also, I'm not planning on having a master anytime soon." 'And besides, why would I choose someone just because of their knowledge, when Omnitrix has already scanned his knowledge? I already have everything that he can offer in my martial soul, boy!'

Yu Xiaogang didn't seem angry or frustrated, but he nodded with a small smile :"That's a very good and admiral mentality for a child of your age. It's okay, I won't and can't force you into becoming my student. But since you and Xiao San are friends and from the same village, please feel free to ask for help if you need anything. I will definitely try my best to help you."

Ali nodded with a thankful smile :"Then thank you, Mr. Please take care of Xiao San from now on." Causing Yu Xiaogang to chuckle :"That's a given, he's my apprentice now after all. Alright, let's go and get you both registered now."

After he led the way and the two children followed him, they walked into an office where a few teachers were chatting. They all turned to look at them as one of them spoke up :"Master, what a rare guest."

Yu Xiaogang only hummed before he handed the letter that he got from old To the teacher :"These teachers will help you two with registration. I'll have to leave now, I'll look for you again, Xiao San *patting his head*."

Ali :"Goodbye, Mr."

Tang San :"Hm, goodbye, master."

The teacher who Yu Xiaogang had given the letter chuckled as he raised an eyebrow at Tang San :"Kid, you call him "teacher"? He's not a teacher from our school."

Tang San :"But he's my teacher."

The teacher :"*Nearly laughing* You've become the Master's apprentice?"

Tang San :"Is there anything wrong?"

"Nothing, nothing." The teacher said as he handed the letter to another teacher who walked towards them as he turned around and walked away :"I didn't expect that he'll take a disciple."

The other teacher :"Are you Tang San or Ashborne Ali? Anyway, as a school teacher, I need to remind you that you can't simply take a man as your master. Oh, you're both born with full soul power?"

The previous reached leaned beside him as he looked at the letter :"What? Born with full soul power?!" And the second teacher sighed :"Sigh, too bad your martial souls aren't anything impressive... Blue Silver Grass and an unknown bracelet, huh? Every soul master can only choose one master for his lifetime, or else people will look down on you. Do you really think he suits You?"

Tang San :"What's the matter?"

And so, they doubted him some more before the teacher handed both Ali and Tang San their blue uniforms before telling them that they'll be living in the 7th dorm. After the two thanked and walked out, the mocking words of the teachers were heard before Tang San just snorted and the both of them walked towards their dorm.

But just as Tang San opened the large wooden door of the dorm, an older boy who looked like he was in his early teens suddenly attacked them. Tang San dodged the punch of the older boy and stepped aside, but Ali wasn't much of a dodger. He would always rather take the punch and return it even harder. So he blocked the punch by grabbing it before he jumped and kicked the older boy in the guts with enough force to send him flying back slightly.

However, the older boy didn't seem to want to give up so easily as he immediately jumped towards them again. But this time, Tang San concentrated his Mysterious Heaven Strike in his palm, covering it with a blue aura before he blocked the older boy's punch, grabbed his fist, and started spinning him in the air before slamming him into the ground. The other boys in the room watched in amazement as one of them came to help the boy up as Tang San questioned with a serious face :"Who are you? Why did you attack us?"

Neither Tang San nor Ali had hit him too hard, so he easily jumped onto his feet before he extended his hand with an awkward smile :"I'm Wang Sheng, the boss of this hostel. Thank you for showing mercy. Since you've defeated me, you're the boss of dorm 7 from now on."

The other 6 boys made their way with three on each side as they bowed down :"Boss!" But Tang San looked at him in confusion as he walked forward :"Me? I'm here to study, not to be your boss." The other boys stood straight as Wang Sheng explained :"This is our rule, whoever wins the battle leads!" And the other boys bowed again :"Yes, that's the rule!" However, Tang San didn't pay attention to them.

Wang Sheng awkwardly scratched his head as he looked at Ali :"Well, then please at least fight with this other newcomer so at least one of you will be the boss..." Ali raised an annoyed eyebrow at him as he placed his hands on his hip bones :"Do I look like I'm gonna amuse you bunch of children? Heh."

'But you're younger than us...' Was the sentence that appeared in all of their heads, but none of them said anything. Wang Sheng looked even more troubled as he curled his lips :"But that's the rule..." And Ali rolled his eyes as he looked for the most comfortable bed :"Well, unfortunately for you, I'm not one to follow the rules."

Just as he finished talking, the door opened once again and closed as a person walked in and spoke up, gaining everyone's attention :"Is this dorm seven?" When all looked back towards the door, they saw a girl wearing a pink dress with leggings, a bunny ears accessory, a bunny pouch on her waist, and a bag behind her.

The young girl who looked to be the same age as Ali and Tang San was rather cute, with fair skin and a soft appearance that resembled a ripe honey peach. Her brown long hair was combed into a scorpion braid hanging past her buttocks. She possessed a pair of bright, soft and intelligent eyes.

Taking the timing of her appearance into consideration and her looks, Ali figured that this must be Xiao Wu, Tang San's fated waifu. He wasn't a lolicon, so he didn't really care, but Tang San on the other hand was acting quite sus.

When he saw Xiao Wu's smile, he looked speechless and completely dumbstruck. But he pulled himself together when he noticed Ali's suspicious eyes on him, as if telling him :"Why the hell are you looking at a kid like that, you grown ass man?" with his eyes.

He just blamed it on his imagination as he leaned towards Wang Sheng and whispered :"Mixed gender housing is allowed here?" And Wang Sheng answered as Xiao Wu gently hopped towards the three while the other boys looked at her with amazement :"We're still kids. Our school's dorms are gender-neutral.

We'll only be divided by gender during Intermediate Soul Master School. This is weird. Last year we didn't have an apprentice, then we suddenly have three this year. Boss, go on! Show her some colors!"

"Me?!" Tang San was taken aback as Xiao Wu stood in front of them. Wang Sheng nodded with a smirk as he grabbed Tang San's bag before slapping him in the back and pushing her towards Xiao Wu :"There's a newbie, we must test her abilities. Go!"

Xiao Wu leaned back before Tang San balanced himself and gave her that sus smile again while Ali looked at him with narrowed eyes :"I don't think that's necessary."

Xiao Wu just smiled at Tang San before she introduced herself to everyone :"Hello, I'm Xiao Wu, the "Wu" from dance. By the way, *pointing at Ali* you with black hair and red eyes, you're cute! I like you since you're so adorable!"

Ali smirked nonchalantly as he gave a gentle snort :"Yeah, I like me too." Causing all the boys to look at him with weird looks as Xiao Wu giggled :"You're funny, I like you even more!"

'But I don't like you in that way, sorry.' Was Ali's thoughts as he smiled nonchalantly :'I ain't no lolicon, girl. You have to look at the boy in front of you for that... Wait... Hold on... Xiao San is about 20 something... But isn't Xiao Wu about 100,000 years old...??? So she's a shotacon...??? What the fuck is going on here...? Who's the criminal here...?????'

Ali was truly confused at that moment. He wasn't that confused even when talking with the ROB... While he was busy figuring it out with furrowed eyebrows while looking away, Tang San introduced himself :"Hi, I'm Tang San. I'm the chief of this dorm. You can call me by my name. And this boy is my friend, Ashborne Ali. We're from the same village."
