Chapter 1728 Even Ugliness Gets Targeted

"By the way, Dean, haven't you always wanted to take on a disciple? I think Hua Ling is just right." Instructor Fang kept winking at Ruan Yu.

Unfortunately, Ruan Yu had no intention of becoming an apprentice.

She won't stay at the Academy of All Spirits for long. Besides, with her strength, she doesn't need to become the dean's apprentice at all.

The dean shared the same idea, and he looked at Ruan Yu expectantly.

"I already have a master, so I can only decline the dean's kindness." Ruan Yu's refusal was incredibly decisive and straightforward.

The dean was slightly saddened. "Even so, I will still do my best to nurture you. You can stay in dormitory number one, which is closest to me."

"Professor Fang, take her there."

On the way, Instructor Fang explained, "As you've probably noticed, the area where the Dean resides has the densest concentration of soul energy. Cultivating here will yield twice the results with half the effort."

"Dormitory Number One is the dream dormitory of all students at Wanling Academy. Even the top student in the entire academy was not allowed to live here by the dean."

Ruan Yu silently remembered the dean's kindness.

"Alright, I've also brought you the academy's uniform. The enrollment period hasn't ended yet, so you're one of the earlier students. There's still a week until the start of the semester. You can explore the academy during this week, and if you have any questions, you can come to me." Instructor Fang gave him his address.

"Okay." After seeing off Professor Fang, Ruan Yu carried the new clothes into dormitory number one.

Is there still a week until school starts?

I reckon this period of time will be enough for her to find the source of the evil.

"Halt! Freshman! Do you know where this is? How dare you trespass?" Two or three disciples passed by outside the courtyard.

They caught a glimpse of someone in dormitory number one out of the corner of their eye and were so startled that they immediately retreated.

"No one is allowed to enter Dormitory Number One. If you don't want to die, you'd better get out now."

Ruan Yu was too lazy to waste words with these students, so she ignored them, went inside, and closed the door.

Her attitude of ignoring everyone else completely enraged the senior students: "What an arrogant freshman! How dare you give us such attitude! You really don't know what's good for you!"

"We reminded her for her own good, but she didn't appreciate it! Fine, isn't Dormitory Number One the place Lin Xiao most wants to be in? Let's tell him about this and let him teach this arrogant freshman a lesson!"

Ruan Yu overheard the conspiracy of the people outside the courtyard.

She scoffed.

He then released his psychic power, covering the entire Academy of All Souls.

Where exactly is this evil energy?

Upon entering the Academy of All Souls, she clearly sensed an increase in the evil energy. However, this evil energy was localized and very faint, making it impossible for her to trace its source.

Is it only when the other party is forced to make a move, or when some other opportunity is triggered, that the root of evil will be revealed?

Ruan Yu has no way of knowing for the time being.

She took the opportunity to scan the entire Wanling Academy, and after getting a general understanding of it, she withdrew her mental power.

"New students, I'll count to three. If you don't get out here by now, don't blame me, Lin Xiao, for being impolite!" Lin Xiao's voice rang out from outside the courtyard.

When Ruan Yu first spread her mental energy, she sensed that the senior student named Lin Xiao was rushing towards her.

Very strange.

Dormitory No. 1 doesn't belong to Lin Xiao, so why is he so possessive of things that don't belong to him?

"one two three…!"

Lin Xiao raised his fist, ready to rush in.

Unexpectedly, the door opened.

Ruan Yu calmly walked out of the room, facing Lin Xiao without the slightest panic on her face.

"As expected of a freshman! Ignorance is no excuse, so this time I can let you off the hook." Lin Xiao saw Ruan Yu's attire and immediately understood everything.

Students at All Souls Academy are required to wear uniform attire, except for freshmen.

"Lin Xiao, we've already warned her, but she said that even if you come in person, she won't leave Dormitory Number One!" The senior students who had tipped her off were not about to let this commotion die down so easily.

They deliberately embellished the story, saying, "She also said that in her eyes, you, Lin Xiao, are just an insignificant ant that she could crush with a flick of her wrist!"

Ruan Yu: "?" Did she say that?

Speechless.

She hid her beauty, hoping to avoid some trouble, but it only brought more trouble! These older students are definitely bullying her because they think she's ugly!

Lin Xiao was furious after hearing this: "Fine! Fine! You're provoking me like this! The last person this arrogant is probably already buried with grass a meter tall!"

"I'll stand still and give you a handicap of one hand. Do you dare to duel me?"

"Get lost." Ruan Yu didn't have time to play these pointless games with these kids.

If Lin Xiao had even a mid-level God-level cultivation, she might be interested. But he's not even at the God-level yet!

Playing against him is just stomping a noob, isn't it?

Ruan Yu turned and went back into the house.

This further enraged Lin Xiao, who exclaimed, "Disrespecting the strong deserves a beating!"

How dare they treat this freshman so disrespectfully! Let him teach this freshman a lesson!

Strong?

Ruan Yu almost died laughing, "Please stop talking."

"Hey!" Lin Xiao leaped high into the air, gathering his soul power in his fist, and slammed it hard into Ruan Yu's face.

He is also a close-combat type Soul Master.

It is indeed very malleable.

"Great, this freshman is finally going to get a beating!" Several instigators chuckled to themselves.

"I just can't stand her arrogant attitude, acting like she's from a completely different world from us!"

However, what none of them expected was...

Faced with Lin Xiao's overwhelming attack, Ruan Yu simply raised one finger.

That's right, just one.

Lin Xiao was also shocked. Did she have a death wish?

Why doesn't he hold back a bit? A little lesson would suffice.

While Lin Xiao was thinking, his wrist was grabbed by a tremendous force. Before he could react, the world spun before his eyes. "Ahhhhh!!"

"Bang!" Accompanied by his scream, the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground rang out.

A lot of dust was splashed up on the ground.

Lin Xiao... was thrown over the shoulder by a freshman!

During this process, the newborn didn't even use a single bit of soul power!

"Could she be a martial arts master?"

"Bullshit! Not a single piece of force was used!"

The group knew perfectly well that this new student had defeated Lin Xiao using only his physical strength!

"The dean assigned me to Dormitory Number One. If you have any complaints, go talk to the dean." Ruan Yu kicked Lin Xiao out of the dormitory.

She held back her strength in that kick.

"Lin Xiao!" Several senior students quickly helped Lin Xiao up.

You wouldn't believe it until you look; Lin Xiao had been thrown around and his face was bruised and swollen.

How much strength does that require?

She looks so frail, how come...

"Go!" Lin Xiao spat out a mouthful of blood, gritted his teeth, and left angrily.

Losing to a freshman isn't shameful; Lin Xiao has always understood that there are always people better than you. What is shameful is that Dormitory Number One was given away by the dean.

He actually went and caused trouble for them!

What kind of trouble are we getting ourselves into?
