Chapter 4: Shameless Yu Xiaogang
Considering how far they had traveled, he was allowed to enter the academy early.
During this time, he could freely study in the library.
Furthermore, the Director of Teaching Affairs would personally take him to hunt for a spirit ring and teach him how to Cultivate spirit power.
After completing the registration, Li Tian received a set of white school uniforms, which made him happy.
He didn't spend a single coin and even got a set of clothes.
The Director of Teaching Affairs said, "Your dormitory is Dormitory Seven. Go settle down first. I'll come find you tomorrow morning."
Li Tian bowed and said, "Thank you, Director."
"You're welcome."
The Director of Teaching Affairs said with a smile, "A talented and polite child—who wouldn't like him?"
The Director of Teaching Affairs escorted the two out of the office and pointed out the location of the dormitory building.
"Thank you, Director!"
Li Tian thanked him again, then left the office building with Old Jack and headed for the dormitory building.
There was only one dormitory building.
Li Tian and Old Jack didn't walk far in the direction the Director pointed before they saw it.
Entering Dormitory Seven, there were several students of different ages sitting cross-legged on their beds, Cultivating.
Li Tian did not disturb them.
After placing his school uniform and the bedding he had specially brought from home on an empty bed, he left the dormitory.
Li Tian said, "Jack Grandpa, I'll see you off."
"Alright!"
Old Jack did not refuse, smiling as he followed Li Tian towards the outside of the academy.
On the way, he didn't give any more instructions.
Because from his performance in the academic affairs office just now, it was not difficult to see that he was not a child who would cause worry.
"Alright, Xiaotian, this is far enough."
After leaving the academy gate, seeing that he still seemed to want to see him off, Old Jack finally spoke.
Li contemplating, "Alright then, Jack Grandpa, take care."
"Alright, go back. Grandpa's leaving."
With that, Old Jack left without looking back, and Li Tian watched him disappear.
After his parents passed away, although other villagers also helped out a lot, most of the time it was Old Jack who took care of him.
He would always remember this kindness.
In the future, he would send back more money, and he wouldn't forget anyone who had helped him.
When Li Tian returned to the dormitory, Wang Sheng and the others in the dormitory had already woken up from their Cultivation and were gathered around his bed.
"No, brother, why are you coming at this time?"
Wang Sheng couldn't help but ask when he saw Li Tian return, as it was almost time for the holidays.
Li Tian smiled and said, "I just had my Awakening."
"Cough, cough…"
Wang Sheng coughed dryly and said seriously, "Well, brother, we have a rule in Dormitory Seven."
"The newcomer must fight me."
"If you win, you'll be the boss of Dormitory Seven. If you lose, you'll have to call me Boss Wang."
Li Tian cupped his hands and said, "Boss Wang, please take care of me in the future."
Wang Sheng: "…"
No, buddy, you're surrendering before even fighting? You don't have any guts at all!
Fight?
Li Tian wasn't a child, so he didn't have the leisure to contend for any boss position with them.
And even if he did fight, he might not be able to win.
After all, coming from a society governed by law, how could he possibly win against those who frequently spar and fight?
He wasn't Tang San, that cheat.
"Alright then, since you call me boss, if you need any help in the future, just call me."
Wang Sheng also feigned shyness.
Li Tian quickly said, "Boss Wang, can you teach me how to Cultivate spirit power?"
"That's simple. Come, I'll teach you."
Wang Sheng immediately pulled Li Tian to sit on the bed and began to teach him the meditation Cultivation method.
It wasn't difficult, and Li Tian quickly learned it.
At this point, his first goal at Notting Academy was achieved.
Li Tian thanked him, "Thank you, Boss Wang."
"You're welcome!"
Wang Sheng felt a strange sense of satisfaction; his title as boss finally felt well-deserved.
Afterward, everyone gathered to chat.
Li Tian's Innate talent was quickly exposed, making Wang Sheng feel as if he had eaten something foul.
"Brother, you're…"
Li Tian waved his hand and said, "Boss Wang, being a boss isn't just about being strong."
"Can I bring you any benefits by being the boss?"
"No."
"On the contrary, you just taught me how to Cultivate spirit power, so you are truly deserving of being the boss."
"Furthermore,"
"Although I have Innate full spirit power, haven't I not obtained my first spirit ring yet?"
"Having never fought before, how could I be your opponent?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng immediately felt much better, no longer feeling that Li Tian was intentionally letting him win.
"Brother, say no more, dinner's on me."
Li Tian nodded and said, "Then I won't be polite. I'll treat you once I become a Spirit Master and receive my stipend."
Wang Sheng said, "No problem, no problem."
Afterward, everyone told Li Tian about their conflicts with the senior students.
They hoped he would help them get even after he became a Spirit Master.
Li Tian readily agreed, as opportunities to gain practical experience in Nuoding City were rare.
The Elementary Spirit Master Academy only had classes in the morning.
Afternoons were generally for free activities, but the work-study students needed to complete their tasks.
Li Tian wanted to help, but he was refused.
They said he should focus on Cultivating, as Xiao Chenyu and the others were waiting for Li Tian to teach them a lesson.
Li Tian didn't hesitate.
…
"Xiaogang, look at this."
After Notting Dean received his registration information, he immediately sought out Yu Xiaogang.
He wanted to use this opportunity to get him to come out and teach classes.
Yu Xiaogang had been living for free at the academy for so long, and as a friend, Notting Dean wouldn't say much.
However, his family had quite a few complaints.
They said that no matter how useless he was, he was still a Spirit Grandmaster, and he even called himself a theoretical Grandmaster.
Teaching some low-level Spirit Masters shouldn't be a problem, right?
But what happened? He had lived there for free for so many years, yet he refused to contribute anything.
They had never seen anyone so thick-skinned.
Notting Dean had not been silent, but Yu Xiaogang was unwilling, so what could he do?
As a friend, he couldn't just kick him out, could he?
Now with Li Tian, such a Genius, enrolling, he didn't believe Yu Xiaogang could still hold back.
If he came out to teach, his own pressure would also be less.
Yu Xiaogang picked up the registration form with curiosity, and his mind was suddenly shaken.
Innate full spirit power?
In a desolate place like Nuoding City, such a Genius could actually appear.
He looked at the Dean: "You're not joking?"
Notting Dean retorted, "What's the point of me making such a joke?"
"Good, good, good!"
Yu Xiaogang was so excited that he exclaimed "Good" three times, and he couldn't help but stand up.
Innate full spirit power.
As long as he wasn't lazy, reaching Titled Douluo was only a matter of time.
Even if his theories were wrong, it wouldn't have much impact.
As long as the other party could reach Titled Douluo, who would dare say his theories were wrong?
Moreover, the other party was a commoner.
What did a commoner Genius mean?
It meant limited knowledge and easy to fool; he could easily trick them into circles with a few words.
Notting Dean said, "Now you can come out and teach, right?"
Yu Xiaogang, however, shook his head and said, "I will only teach him; others are not worthy of my instruction."
Notting Dean: "…"
To be honest, he was really a bit angry; this guy didn't consider him at all.
"Xiaogang…"
Notting Dean still wanted to say something, but Yu Xiaogang raised his hand to interrupt him.
"Other things are fine; this matter need not be brought up again."
