Chapter 18: Rise of the Working Students

On the field, the exchange between Wang Sheng and Liu Long was about to begin.

"Wang Sheng, admit defeat, you are no match for me!" Liu Long carried his Staff Martial Soul in his hands and was quite confident. Since he entered the Academy, he and Wang Sheng had fought many times, and Wang Sheng had never won.

With his rank 9 soul power and his Staff in hand, what could Wang Sheng do to win? Liu Long really couldn't think of a way.

Wang Sheng's expression was firm as he said with conviction, "I will definitely win today!".

'Or I will have to face Sister Xiao Wu's wrath' Wang Sheng added in his heart.

"Huh?" Liu Long was a bit puzzled, seeing Wang Sheng's confidence, he really didn't know where Wang Sheng's courage came from.

'Could it be that this Wang Sheng has some kind of hidden card,' Liu Long froze, then shook his head in disdain, 'How can a simple Working Student have a hidden card, I'm really thinking too much.'

A while later, the battle finally began.

"Ah!" Liu Long Staff Long struck hard on Wang Sheng's chest, even with his Martial Soul defense, he could not be completely immune to the stabbing pain and unconsciously let out a shriek.

"Woah, Wang Sheng was hit so badly!" said Xiao Wu in a sad tone.

"Xiao Wu, could you at least look like you're not having fun when you say that?" Tang San said helplessly.

Xiao Wu smiled cheekily and said, "I didn't expect Wang Sheng to be such a good actor, he looks like he's taking a beating!"

Tang San analyzed, "Indeed, Wang Sheng deliberately suppressed his strength and concentrated all his soul power on defense, making Liu Long believe that he was overwhelming him, so he gradually started to become careless. In reality, every time Liu Long's Staff hits Wang Sheng's body, the damage is not as severe as he thinks it is."

Lu Yuan, who was watching the battle with a faint smile, continued the explanation, "Liu Long and Wang Sheng have fought more than once, and Liu Long has an understanding of Wang Sheng's strength, so he could not act too weak at first. Wang Sheng's acting skills today are really good, his strength has been well hidden, and Liu Long did not notice anything wrong. Liu Long, being a Spirit Master with poor physical quality and stamina, is at a disadvantage."

"The smart thing about Wang Sheng is that although he continuously takes hits, it costs Liu Long several attacks to hit him each time, which is also a huge drain on Liu Long's physical strength and soul power, on the other hand, Liu Long has not noticed this until now."

"And Wang Sheng, as a Beast Spirit Master, can completely resist with his own defense. Since he's very resistant to blows and hasn't spent much soul power so far, the remaining soul power comparison between the two sides is no longer on the same level." Tang San said, a little surprised.

Previously, Tang San and Wang Sheng had clashed on the first day of the school year, so Tang San still had a general idea of Wang Sheng's combat power, and although the beast-type martial soul gave him an advantage by resisting a greater amount of damage, it would still be a bit difficult to expect to win this match by relying solely on this.

Thinking about this, Tang San couldn't help but glance at Lu Yuan.

As the match progressed, the onlookers began to notice a shift in the tide. Tang San and Lu Yuan, both seasoned fighters, had a keen understanding of the situation on the field.

"Looks like the opportunity has come," Lu Yuan murmured, noticing Liu Long's weakening strength and slower attacks.

Liu Long, on the other hand, couldn't understand why he was losing more and more strength. He found it strange that Wang Sheng seemed to be oddly resistant to his blows, and his own attacks were becoming less frequent and less powerful.

But the strangest thing was that, in the past, Wang Sheng had always been like a living target for him, an easy punching bag. But today, he was spending so much soul power and hitting Wang Sheng less frequently.

As time passed, Liu Long's soul power continued to wane.

"It's now!" Feeling Liu Long's strength weakening, Wang Sheng exploded with the little soul power he had left, sending Liu Long's Staff flying and slapping him with a Tiger Claw.

"This is no good!" Liu Long was startled and unable to dodge, and was directly slapped on the cheek by Wang Sheng, his entire body flying backwards several meters before he fainted on the spot.

The onlookers let out a shout of surprise as they saw Liu Long's sudden defeat. Only recently had Liu Long been crushing Wang Sheng, but now the situation had been suddenly reversed and Liu Long ended up being slapped.

"Sister Xiao Wu, I won!" Wang Sheng looked up to the sky and let out a tiger roar, feeling happier than he ever had before. Ever since he entered Nuoding Academy, he had always been bullied by Liu Long, and today was finally the day he fulfilled his biggest dream.

"Well done Wang Sheng, you didn't let us down, you can go rest!" Xiao Wu patted Wang Sheng's shoulders with a big smile.

Then she stepped forward and pointed at Xiao Chenyu.

"Xiao Chenyu, we already won the first match, get off your ass and put someone else in for the next round!" spoke Xiao Wu impatiently.

"Ling Feng, it's your turn," said Xiao Chenyu, feeling offended. He had never been spoken to like this by a working student before. As the leader of the noble students, he couldn't accept being disrespected by a mere pet bunny.

"Then I'll take the Working Students' place!" Tang San took a step forward and looked at Ling Feng in front of him.

"Boy, I'll show you what I'm made of!" As Xiao Chenyu's number one bootlicker, Ling Feng had his own pride, and he would show these Working Students in front of him how good he was.

The battle began and suddenly...

Bang!

A figure flew out as if imitating Liu Long! A kick, a simple kick, made Ling Feng question the meaning of his life.

"Who is this guy? To defeat Ling Feng in one move!" Xiao Chenyu's face was quite ugly, he did not expect that the two generals under his command had lost to some Working Students, how was it possible for him, Xiao Chenyu, to accept this?

"Hehe, Xiao Chenyu, two out of three games, you lost and we won! From today onwards, you all have to call me Sister Xiao Wu!" said a victorious Xiao Wu, as if everything was over.

"Don't dream about it, little bunny, I, Xiao Chenyu, haven't lost yet..." Xiao Chenyu was used to walking around at ease, how could he recognize a girl, whom he recently treated with contempt, as his boss, wasn't that humiliating himself?

"Are you denying defeat?" Tang San took a step forward; he had always been an upright man and despised people who didn't keep their word.

"You still haven't beaten me, I'm not convinced, unless one of you can defeat me, I will never admit defeat." Xiao Chenyu was confident in his own strength, and since Lu Yuan had clearly said that he would not fight, he would never think that there was anyone else here who could defeat him!

"Fine! Then I'll play with you." Tang San took a step forward.

"Xiao San, I'll do it!" said Xiao Wu excitedly, the plan she had prepared had gone perfectly, Xiao Chenyu had gone so far as to call her degrading nicknames in public, and she wouldn't be Xiao Wu if she didn't repay him with interest.

"No need, a mere Xiao Chenyu doesn't need you to act yet, it will be enough with me alone!" After obtaining his first Spirit Ring, he still had yet to test his power, perhaps Xiao Chenyu would be the first person to test it.

"Xiao Chenyu, Wolf Martial Soul, Power Attack System Spirit Master, Rank 11!" A white spirit ring lit up from Xiao Chenyu's body, whether it was Tang San or Xiao Wu, Xiao Chenyu obviously did not underestimate either of them, to be the person capable of sending Ling Feng flying with a single blow, and the pet bunny who was this person's Boss, they both deserved his serious attention.

"Xiao San, let me do it." Xiao Wu repeated with seriousness as she headed to the combat zone.

Moreover, a slight disappointment could not help but appear in Xiao Wu's eyes, to this day, Tang San still did not understand why she wanted to hit Xiao Chenyu so badly. To her, it was no longer just a matter between working students and noble students, it was about her own reputation and pride.

"Xiao Wu, Soft Boned Rabbit Martial Soul, Rank 13 Spirit Master!" A red light shot out from Xiao Wu's body, her eyes began to turn red, her ears slowly grew bigger and her stature became taller, the 100-year-old spirit ring emitted a yellow glow!

A confused look could be seen on Tang San's face, as he didn't understand what he had done to upset Xiao Wu.

He turned to look at Lu Yuan's reaction, only to see him say with a slight smile, "Take him down hard, Xiao Wu."

Xiao Wu heard his voice, turned around, and, with her arms behind her back, gave him a bright smile. Her smile, adorned with her transformed appearance, gave her an extremely captivating charm.

Tang San saw her smile and was completely stunned for a few moments. He had never seen Xiao Wu make such an enchanting smile before.

The moment Xiao Chenyu heard Lu Yuan's voice and saw Xiao Wu's ring, he realized that he was so fucked up. A miserable look formed on his face.

The outcome was predictable, as Xiao Chenyu was beaten by Xiao Wu so savagely that even his mother would have a hard time recognizing him...

With her foot firmly planted on top of Xiao Chenyu's head, Xiao Wu felt a weight lifted off her shoulders. She turned to look at the rest of the noble students with a fierce expression.

Xiao Wu's appearance, instead of causing fear, looked very adorable, but the noble students did not think the same way, and trembling with fear, they knelt down and said in unison.

"Sister Xiao Wu!"

Feeling satisfied, Xiao Wu kicked Xiao Chenyu towards the noble students and made her way back to where Tang San and Lu Yuan were standing.

"The Supreme Sister Xiao Wu is the best!"

"Supreme Sister!"

The working students of Room 7 erupted in celebration, some even shedding tears of joy. They never thought that the day would come when they would have the upper hand over the noble students. And it was all thanks to their Room 7 Boss.

"Looks like everyone adores you, 'Supreme Sister' Xiao Wu."

Hearing the praise directed at Xiao Wu, Lu Yuan reached out and stroked her little head, at the same time he couldn't help but tease her a little.

"Hehe, that's natural" To Lu Yuan's surprise, Xiao Wu raised her head and shamelessly accepted it, then held the arm that was caressing her and continued. "You are lucky, you will take this Supreme Sister to lunch, don't you think it's a great honor?"

"You... didn't invite me here for this reason, did you?" Lu Yuan was speechless.

"Are you still complaining? I'm craving those sautéed green vine cores from the other time... oh, and some carrots too!" The more she thought about food, the hungrier she got, so she started pulling Lu Yuan's arm, and heading towards the cafeteria.

"Okay... then I guess I'll order boiled rabbit." Lu Yuan said pretending to lick his lips.

Xiao Wu's expression quickly turned to one of disapproval. "No way! Rabbits are so adorable, why would you eat them? You're not allowed to eat them anymore!"

Lu Yuan quickly retorted, "But I heard that some rabbits give birth to hundreds of babies and ruin farmers' crops."

Xiao Wu, becoming increasingly defensive, exclaimed, "Hmph! What son of a bitch said that!? Don't listen to them! Not all rabbit species behave like that. Some species only choose one mate for life and have very few offspring." She held up her slender fingers as she explained, her little face was red with embarrassment and anger.

"Then how do they survive in such a hostile environment as the spirit beasts' forests?" Lu Yuan asked curiously.

"That's because..."

"....."

Looking at the backs of Lu Yuan and Xiao Wu as they walked away, Tang San felt a sense of loss.

Inhaling deeply, he looked around and finally decided to head to his Teacher's residence.
