Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao's Encounter

Su Qingfeng walked through the new student teaching building and arrived in front of the white dormitory building.

Seeing the old man lying on a chair, leisurely sunbathing, he finally understood why Du Weilun had assigned him room 109.

It was because this room was right next to that old man! And this old man was Su Qingfeng's teacher, Mu En! No wonder Senior Brother Yan Shaozhe had assured him so emphatically that even studying in the outer court wouldn't lead to any major accidents.

So, Mu En had never left, and had been watching him all along! "Old man, you're too much. Making me a specially selected student in the outer court was also your decision, wasn't it?"

Su Qingfeng was speechless.

"Heh heh, it's for your own good. Besides, those elders in the Sea God Pavilion are watching us like hawks. If they find you and snatch you away, wouldn't I cry my eyes out?"

"Moreover, coming to the outer court is beneficial for you too. Most of the kids here are only at level twenty or thirty, not much higher than your soul power. Participating in the freshman assessment matches will also allow you to test your strength. What's not to like?"

"Don't worry, Teacher will always protect you."

Creak~ Creak~ After speaking, Mu En closed his eyes and began to sway slightly in his chair, enjoying the sunshine.

Su Qingfeng pushed open his dormitory door. As expected, everything had been arranged, including a private shower, a private bathroom, spring mattresses, and bedding.

Su Qingfeng sat cross-legged on the bed, circulating his soul power.

The elders in the Sea God Pavilion meeting were right; cultivating an extreme attribute was indeed very slow.

This was because they needed to condense the soul power they cultivated to a much purer state than ordinary soul masters, which was not easy.

As Su Qingfeng's cultivation progressed, the surrounding water and ice elements were instantly mobilized, and ice cubes and snowflakes began to appear in the room.

Soon, the walls were covered with a layer of frost, and the temperature within a few dozen meters dropped by several degrees.

Mu En squinted and glanced at Su Qingfeng's room, nodding with satisfaction:

"He's quite diligent. Don't fear those with higher talent than you; fear those with high talent who are even more diligent than you."

"Keep it up. I hope you can create a miracle. I have a premonition that perhaps you will restore the glory of ten thousand years ago and reach the same height as the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils."

That is, God! …

In the evening, the new students finished their classes one after another. Most of them had completed their final physical training for the day, eaten a meal, and returned to their dormitories with weary bodies.

Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao also returned. As soon as they entered the dormitory, they collapsed onto their beds, letting out a sigh of relief.

"It's all that specially selected person's fault. He scolded that old hag, and we had to suffer for it. He, on the other hand, left. It's truly detestable. Don't think you're so great just because you wear a mask and have a bit of charisma. Next time I see him, I'll definitely teach him a lesson and rip that mask off."

Wang Dong said fiercely.

Huo Yuhao was even more exhausted than Wang Dong. He was about the same age as Su Qingfeng, but his level was even lower than Su Qingfeng's! His current physical condition was also average.

But Huo Yuhao was a good-natured person and didn't like offending people. He tried to mediate, "Wang Dong, don't be impulsive. The special recruit might be very powerful. Everyone's been saying that this special recruit is likely from a higher grade, or even demoted from the Inner Court. Even Teacher Zhou Yi doesn't dare to do anything to him. We shouldn't provoke him."

"Hmph, coward. I'm not afraid of him."

Wang Dong gave Huo Yuhao a disdainful look. So what if he has a background? As if I don't?

However, just as they lay down to rest, they seemed to hear a crack.

Soon, a chill washed over them, and they snapped their eyes open.

They discovered that a section of the wall had developed a layer of ice! Before long, the ice shards seemed to grow, covering the entire wall and then creeping towards their bedding.

The temperature in the entire room plummeted to zero! Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong exchanged bewildered glances; they were both stunned.

"What's going on?"

"Is it winter?"

"Or is there a problem with the academy's building?" "Huo Yuhao, do you feel it?"

Huo Yuhao pulled his hand back, almost getting sealed by the ice. "Feel what?"

"This power… it seems to be coming from next door!" Wang Dong said, narrowing his eyes.

"You mean there's an ice-attribute soul master living next door? But that's too outrageous. Even if they released an ice-attribute soul skill, it would be hard for it to penetrate the wall like this, right?" Huo Yuhao touched his head, finding it hard to believe.

"You idiot, you're so ignorant. If you have high affinity with water and ice elements, you can sense ice elements through walls and condense them."

Wang Dong said impatiently.

Huo Yuhao's eyes lit up. He activated his Spirit Eyes soul skill, allowing him to perceive the situation in the adjacent dormitory. After coming to his senses, he said blankly, "There really is someone cultivating over there."

"Let's go teach him a lesson!"

Without further ado, Wang Dong immediately got up, rubbing his hands together. "It's a good chance to vent the frustration from today's special training!"

"Isn't that not good? We shouldn't cause trouble. I still have to sell grilled fish tonight."

"What are you afraid of? Have you forgotten what our homeroom teacher said? Those who don't dare to cause trouble are mediocre talents. Besides, they provoked us first!"

With that, Wang Dong pushed open their dormitory door and rushed out, kicking open the door to room 109.

Wang Dong and Huo Yuhao lived in 108, separated by just one wall from 109.

Huo Yuhao quickly followed.

Upon seeing the person in room 109, both Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were taken aback: "It's you, the special recruit!"

"You were nowhere to be seen all afternoon, and it turns out you were hiding in your dorm cultivating. Aren't you going to see what good deeds you've done?"

Wang Dong said indignantly, "You guy, playing mysterious, wearing a mask even when you're alone in the dorm. I want to see who you really are."

Just as Huo Yuhao was marveling at how luxurious Dorm 109 was, with its display of high-quality beds, bedding, and daily necessities, feeling a touch of envy, Wang Dong had already extended a palm, lunging towards Su Qingfeng.

Su Qingfeng's eyes snapped open, and he also extended his palm, bringing with it a surge of ice element power. Their palms, which had instantly transformed into fists, collided.

In an instant, Su Qingfeng's body was slammed against the wall.

Simultaneously, Wang Dong's fist was frozen. With a flick of Su Qingfeng's finger, starting from the frozen fist, Wang Dong's entire body was encased in ice.

"This crazy woman, she didn't inherit Tang San's composure, but she definitely got Xiao Wu's fiery temper."

Su Qingfeng felt a dull ache in his arm from that impact.

Outside, Mu En lay back in his lounge chair, a look of satisfaction on his face. He muttered, "Not bad, not bad. Although their soul power level is still low, their control over the ice element is already quite good."

"Wang Dong! Wang Dong, what's wrong?!"

Huo Yuhao was stunned to see Wang Dong completely frozen.

He tried to pry off the ice surrounding Wang Dong with his hands.

Just then, the ice on Wang Dong's body reacted, beginning to crack. She emitted a dazzling radiance, and a pair of beautiful wings appeared.
