Dai Mubai glanced at Su Ming, and seeing Su Ming nod lightly, he felt relieved.
What Dai Mubai didn't know was that Su Ming had full confidence in Xiao Wu's abilities. With Dai Mubai's current strength, if Xiao Wu didn't hold back, she could absolutely cripple him! With her third soul skill, Teleportation, fully mastered, combined with her powerful Eight Stage Drop, her strength was unmatched. Su Ming had even noticed that Xiao Wu's leg strength seemed much stronger than what he knew from the original story. Perhaps his influence had caused her to change, making her physical condition and diligence far superior to what they originally were.
Dai Mubai grinned and said, "Xiao Wu, if you manage to defeat me, I'll personally make sure their registration fees are fully refunded. If the academy won't return the money, I'll cover it myself. How about that?"
Even though Dai Mubai knew Xiao Wu's level was close to his own in the thirties, he didn't believe someone as young as her could be stronger than him. After all, Su Ming was already an anomaly—there was no way Xiao Wu could be one too, right?
The odds of that happening were so low that nobody would believe it.
Dai Mubai declared, "Dai Mubai, Martial Soul: Evil Eyed White Tiger, Level 37 Assault-type Battle Soul Master!"
Xiao Wu replied, "Xiao Wu, Martial Soul: Soft Bone Rabbit, Level 39 Assault-type Battle Soul Master!"
Then, the soul rings on both of them appeared—yellow, yellow, purple—the best configuration.
However, Xiao Wu had disguised her actual soul ring colors using a special skill. In reality, her soul ring configuration was yellow, purple, purple.
"What?" Dai Mubai was stunned. "You're at Level 39?"
Xiao Wu proudly lifted her chin. "Yes, get ready to lose!"
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, seeing Xiao Wu's strength for the first time, were also shocked. Xiao Wu seemed much stronger than they had expected!
Because they were also diary holders, they had the ability to see through Xiao Wu's disguise. The system had allowed them to see the true color of her soul rings, so they could clearly see two purple rings, with the first ring close to evolving to purple.
With Dai Mubai's strength and soul ring configuration, it was unlikely he could defeat Xiao Wu. The women couldn't help but feel a little sorry for him. Yesterday, he was beaten by Su Ming, and today, by Xiao Wu.
Pfft... Haha! We can't hold it in!
Li Yusong, the elder in charge of registration, was shocked to see such a powerful young girl at this age. She was even stronger than Dai Mubai—an extraordinary genius! No, this was exactly the kind of "monster" their academy wanted.
However, Li Yusong still needed to observe her more closely. After all, what if this girl was all talk and couldn't actually beat Dai Mubai?
From his perspective, the current disturbance didn't matter. If this girl could enroll, Shrek Academy might see its moment of glory!
Furthermore, according to her, her brother was even stronger—unbelievable.
Given their ages, they were definitely within the enrollment standards!
Xiao Wu didn't care about Dai Mubai's surprise. She just wanted to complete the system's task quickly. She wondered what kind of reward she would get this time and was very excited!
Xiao Wu teased sarcastically, "Dai Mubai, since I'm younger than you, shouldn't I get the first move?"
Dai Mubai wanted to refuse, but with so many people watching, he couldn't bring himself to say no. He forced a smile and said, "Hmm, you're right. You go first."
The women watching were amused. It seemed Dai Mubai still cared about his reputation.
Xiao Wu quickly gathered strength in her legs and charged at Dai Mubai: "First Soul Skill: Waist Bow!"
Her first soul skill enhanced her flexibility, allowing her to launch more aggressive attacks.
Xiao Wu's first attack was a powerful kick aimed directly at Dai Mubai's face.
Dai Mubai, shocked by Xiao Wu's incredible speed—despite being an assault-type soul master—felt threatened by her attack. Being hit would hurt his pride more than his body.
He crossed his arms to defend himself, activating his first soul ring: "First Soul Skill: White Tiger Barrier!"
Even with his defense up, the force of Xiao Wu's kick pushed Dai Mubai back two steps. He was stunned—how could her leg strength be this powerful?
Xiao Wu noticed he had withstood her attack and sneered, "Not bad. You managed to block one of my kicks. Let's see how many more you can handle!"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Dai Mubai could only passively defend against Xiao Wu's relentless kicks. Worse, he realized the power behind her attacks was steadily increasing!
Soon, Dai Mubai found himself struggling to hold on. Being forced to defend the whole time was humiliating!
Li Yusong, meanwhile, was carefully assessing Xiao Wu's abilities. From what she had displayed so far, it was clear that Xiao Wu was no mere paper tiger. Dai Mubai's pitiful situation was evidence enough.
He also noted the usefulness of Xiao Wu's first soul skill, which enhanced her attacks. However, he was curious about her other two skills and wondered if Dai Mubai could force her to use them. It didn't look promising, though.
Onlookers in the registration line or those seeking a refund were all astounded by Xiao Wu's strength, feeling envious. Some parents had accompanied their children to register and, upon seeing Xiao Wu, glanced at their own children with a sense of disappointment.
Many parents couldn't resist saying quietly, "Look at her, and now look at yourself. She's your age, and her martial soul is just a rabbit, yet she's so strong!"
The children, feeling aggrieved, silently lamented. Am I not aware of my own talent? Their parents always compared them to others, forgetting to consider their circumstances. Why didn't they ever compare themselves to other parents?
Unable to take any more of Xiao Wu's kicks, Dai Mubai decided to go on the offensive and seize the initiative.
His second soul ring lit up: "Second Soul Skill: White Tiger Light Wave!"
Dai Mubai found an opening, uncrossed his arms, and unleashed a white energy wave from his mouth.
Xiao Wu remained unfazed. Her thousand-year soul ring lit up: "Third Soul Skill: Teleportation!"
In an instant, Xiao Wu disappeared from the path of the attack, reappearing several meters away.
Seeing Xiao Wu dodge the attack, Su Ming smirked slightly, while everyone else, including Tang San, was shocked. He had only just realized that Xiao Wu's third soul skill was teleportation. According to his teacher, this type of soul skill came from a rare soul beast called the Lightning Rabbit, which was nearly impossible to find because of its elusive nature.
Although Li Yusong wasn't as knowledgeable as Tang San in identifying specific soul beasts, he could still tell that Xiao Wu's soul skill was incredibly powerful—practically a life-saving skill! It could also be combined with other skills to create versatile attack strategies. With this realization, Li Yusong made up his mind: no matter the cost, he had to ensure this girl enrolled at Shrek Academy!
Dai Mubai, frustrated that his attack had been dodged so easily, glared coldly at Xiao Wu and asked, "What kind of soul skill was that?"
He had been suppressed for so long that his pride was now on the line. Not only was Xiao Wu much younger than him, but Dai Mubai was also determined to defeat her and salvage his dignity.
Xiao Wu, unfazed by Dai Mubai's glare, playfully teased, "That was my third soul skill, Teleportation. Impressed? Want to surrender now?"
Filled with anger, Dai Mubai roared, "No way! I'll never surrender. It's just teleportation. I don't believe you can keep using it forever!"
At this point, all traces of Dai Mubai's arrogant playboy demeanor were gone. His entire body was filled with an intense aura, like a raging tiger staring down its prey—this 'little white rabbit.'
With that, Dai Mubai activated his third soul ring, the thousand-year ring: "Third Soul Skill: White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
Using this skill doubled Dai Mubai's attack and defense attributes, making his power nearly reach the fortieth level.
Xiao Wu immediately understood Dai Mubai's strategy: he intended to keep attacking her, forcing her to use teleportation repeatedly, thinking that she would eventually run out of soul power.
However, Dai Mubai's plan was destined to fail. Xiao Wu's third soul ring was six thousand years old, allowing her to teleport up to three hundred meters, with soul power consumption varying by distance.
If she only used teleportation to dodge his attacks, Dai Mubai's soul power would likely deplete before hers did. Once his third soul skill ended, he'd enter a weakened state, and the match would be over.
But Xiao Wu had no intention of dragging things out that long. That would be boring—she wanted to end it quickly.
A mischievous glint appeared in Xiao Wu's eyes as she smiled. She had come up with a prank, hee hee. Originally, she planned to use her Eight Stage Drop on Dai Mubai, but considering they might be classmates for a while, she decided to go easy on him. If she used her full strength, Dai Mubai would be half-crippled.
Plus, if she messed with him too much, it could cause trouble for her brother Su Ming. Even though Su Ming could probably handle it, she'd rather avoid unnecessary complications.
Su Ming, who had been watching Xiao Wu closely, recognized the expression on her face and knew she was up to something. He could only hope she wouldn't go overboard.
Xiao Wu touched her lips lightly with her finger, her eyes glowing with an alluring pink light as she cast her second soul skill: Charm.
Dai Mubai, hit by the charm, instinctively closed his eyes. When he opened them, his entire world was filled with a pink haze.
Confused, he wondered where Xiao Wu had gone. Could she have teleported away?
Suddenly, he saw the twin girls from the night before, swaying their hips seductively as they wrapped themselves around him. One whispered softly in his ear, "Young Master Dai, were you satisfied with our skills yesterday? How about another round today? You're the best man we've ever been with!"
Hearing this, Dai Mubai was immediately aroused. His whole body tingled as if ants were crawling all over him. His breathing became heavy, and his lower body began to react.
Completely enchanted by Xiao Wu's charm, Dai Mubai reverted to his playboy self, grinning lecherously at the illusionary twins. "Yes, yes, let's go now. I'll make sure you both enjoy yourselves!"
From the outside, however, everyone saw Dai Mubai talking to thin air with a sleazy smile on his face, his expression flushed and disgusting.
Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing watched with disgust, recognizing that Dai Mubai had fallen for Xiao Wu's charm. He clearly couldn't control himself in situations like this, making it easy for him to walk right into Xiao Wu's trap.
Zhu Zhuqing, having witnessed Dai Mubai's behavior the previous day, already knew what kind of person he was. But she hadn't expected his willpower to be this weak. One moment, he was determined to defeat Xiao Wu with his third soul skill, and the next, he was behaving like a lustful beast.
Xiao Wu, seeing Dai Mubai's current state, was slightly surprised. She had simply thought of using her charm to test his reaction after seeing him with the twins at the Rose Hotel yesterday, but she didn't expect him to fall for it so easily.
While she wasn't fully aware of what was happening in Dai Mubai's hallucination, Xiao Wu had only made a small alteration. What happened within the illusion was beyond her control, as her charm skill was still only her second soul skill.
Suddenly, Xiao Wu noticed something unusual about Dai Mubai's lower body. Realizing what was happening, her face turned red, and she quickly showed a look of disgust. How could he still be thinking about such things at a time like this?!
The crowd watching began to whisper and gossip. Su Ming sighed, feeling sorry for Dai Mubai. This wasn't just physical defeat—it was social humiliation. This kind of shame would sting far more than any injury.
Su Ming called out, "Xiao Wu, that's enough. End it now."
Xiao Wu nodded in agreement, cast her charm skill on Dai Mubai again, then teleported behind him and delivered a kick, sending him flying towards Li Yusong.
Dai Mubai shook his head as he stood up, looking around in confusion. The twins were gone, and he suddenly remembered—he had been hit by Xiao Wu's charm skill!
