Chapter 3: Ning Rongrong Is the First to Break Down
Spirit City.
The Pope's Private Chambers.
Bibi Dong was furious. With a sharp crack, she slammed the jade mirror to the floor.
"Damn it!"
"All of you deserve to die!"
"When I find out who you are, I'll make sure you beg for death! I'll lock you up in my secret chamber and torment you until you wish you were never born!"
Ding!
The mirror, perfectly intact, chimed again.
[I'm an Orphan: Hey, Surname Yu, you can curse her out all you want, but don't go too far.]
"Hm?"
Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow in surprise.
This person was the first to attack her earlier… and now they were defending her?
[Little Fox: Exactly! Exactly! I think the one Surnamed Yu is the real ugly old hag! You're the one no man would want!]
[My Surname is Not Yu: The hell? Who asked you two to butt in? I'm cursing Bibi Dong, not you! What are you, Spirit Hall's lapdogs? Why are you defending her?]
[Carrot Lover: There isn't a single good person in Spirit Hall! Bibi Dong, you old hag, ugly woman, no one wants you!]
[Yan Zi is Not Swallow: +1]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: +1]
[Cat in the Shadows: Can everyone stop fighting for a second? What even is this chat group for?]
[Seven Treasures Little Princess: Are you dumb? The name says it all! Obviously, it's a chat group for us to talk in!]
[Cat in the Shadows: Chin neck a pair of big breasts.JPG (Image)]
[Cat in the Shadows: You see that? Looks like this thing can do more than just chat — we can take pictures, record videos, even send red packets and other stuff.]
The group went silent.
Moments ago, all the women were ready to have a big argument and tear each other apart. But now… they collectively froze, staring at the photo that "Cat in the Shadows" had just posted.
---
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Seven Treasures Little Princess — Ning Rongrong.
Dressed in pale blue sleepwear, Ning Rongrong stared at the jade mirror in her hands. When she saw the image, she lost it completely.
"AHHHHHHH!"
"I hate you all so much!"
---
Heaven Dou City.
Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
Yan Zi is Not Swallow — Dugu Yan.
Dugu Yan's face twisted in irritation.
That damned "Cat in the Shadows"! Weren't they supposed to be mocking Bibi Dong together?
Why'd she have to post that kind of photo?
Worse— that woman's figure… even she couldn't compare!
"Are those real?!"
She clenched her fists, glaring at the mirror.
"I kind of want to… squeeze them and check."
After a brief moment of silence, her competitive nature took over. No way she'd back down.
Hiking up her nightdress, she angled the mirror from her thighs upward and snapped a photo.
[Yan Zi is Not Swallow: LongLegs.JPG]
[Yan Zi is Not Swallow: Guess it really can take pictures. This chat device is incredible… Who could've made something like this?]
Everyone: "…"
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Bang!
Ning Rongrong saw the message and exploded again, slamming her jade mirror onto the bed, her face dark with fury.
"Unforgivable!"
"You bastards—just wait until I grow up! I'll be just as big! Just as long! You'll see!"
"Too much bullying! Absolutely intolerable!"
Blue Tyrant Academy.
Liu Erlong sighed helplessly. Weren't they supposed to be teaming up to attack Bibi Dong?
Now they were all busy showing off their bodies instead.
How childish.
She was just about to set the jade mirror down when a thought hit her—
Wait a minute.
Bibi Dong was still in the chat, wasn't she?
Her lips curved into a smirk.
"Well, then I have to post something too."
She stood up, slipped on her black leather pants, and snapped a picture.
[My Surname is Not Yu: LongLegs.JPG]
[My Surname is Not Yu: Yep, confirmed—it really can send pictures.]
Back at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong had no more strength left to argue. She tossed the mirror aside and collapsed onto her bed, cheeks puffed in frustration.
"Fine! I'm done with all of you!"
From this day on, Ning Rongrong and these shameless women were mortal enemies!
The atmosphere in the group chat took a bizarre turn.
Bibi Dong stayed silent. Whatever those other women wanted to do, they could do it — but she, the dignified Pope of Spirit Hall, could never participate in something that disgraceful.
Absolutely impossible.
Qian Renxue, too, was speechless.
"What's wrong with these people? Why are they randomly posting pictures of themselves?"
[Little Fox: LongLegs.JPG]
[I'm an Orphan: Boring.]
[My Surname is Not Yu: All the pretty ladies already posted their photos. Only that old hag Bibi Dong hasn't! Probably because she's flat-chested with stubby little legs! Hahaha!]
And that was the final straw— Ning Rongrong was the first to completely lose it.
[Seven Treasures Princess: I'm going to kill you all!!]
Spirit City.
Pope's Private Chambers.
Bang!
The poor jade mirror once again suffered from Bibi Dong's wrath as she hurled it to the ground for the second time.
"Damn it!"
"I swear I'll find you! I'll make you wish you were dead!"
[My Surname is Not Yu: Hey, old woman, still awake? If not, post a leg pic for us! Let's see if you've really got those short little legs!]
That did it.
Bibi Dong jumped up in fury.
That damned Surname Yu! She was simply… too much! Insufferable!
But as much as Bibi Dong wanted to retaliate, she couldn't.
These people were all mysterious — their identities unknown. They could take any picture they wanted without consequence.
But she?
She was the Pope of Spirit Hall!
If she actually sent a leg photo, the entire continent would be laughing at her by tomorrow!
That would ruin the image of Spirit Hall completely.
[Bibi Dong: Surnamed Yu woman, I'll remember you. Don't let me find out who you are.]
[Carrot Lover: Ugly woman! Old hag! Short legs! Bleh bleh bleh!]
Nuoding Academy.
Xiao Wu remembered perfectly well what Bibi Dong looked like — tall, gorgeous, with long legs and a figure that could make anyone jealous.
But she still couldn't resist teasing her in the chat.
Then suddenly, a thought struck her.
She quickly scrolled up through the chat history.
"Su Yan?"
"Wait… that's the same name as Little Monkey's master!"
Xiao Wu knew Su Yan. They'd been classmates for six years!
Her curiosity immediately flared up. Without another thought, she rushed out of the dormitory toward the boys' quarters — specifically, Dorm Seven.
Behind Nuoding Academy, in the mountains.
Thunder roared. Lightning flashed wildly across the night sky, driving away anyone who might've tried to come investigate the phenomenon.
Meanwhile, Su Yan stood before a dazzling golden monkey clad in radiant armor, holding a mighty iron staff.
The sight left him stunned — and thrilled.
"Handsome!"
"Way too handsome!"
"If this world's power limit weren't so low, Little Monkey, you'd basically become Sun Wukong already!"
The little monkey waved its iron staff with excitement. Golden light surged again — this time enveloping Su Yan as well.
When the light faded, he found himself wearing matching golden armor, an iron staff appearing in his hand.
Su Yan's eyes widened in astonishment.
"What the—?"
"You mean your evolved gear can transfer to me too?!"
"With the Nine Yang Divine Art letting me infuse soul power into my attacks, doesn't that mean… we can fight side by side now?"
"This is insane!"
"Quick, let's move before someone comes!"
Heart pounding with exhilaration, Su Yan grabbed his partner and dashed away into the night.
His situation was now completely different — before, his Martial Soul could only train with him, but not fight independently.
Now? His Martial Soul could battle alone, and he could fight alongside it.
A single soul master, now equivalent to two!

Outside Dorm Seven.
Tang San and the others, seeing the golden light fading, assumed the strange phenomenon had ended. They turned to head back to their rooms.
Just then, Xiao Wu came running over.
"Tang San!"
Tang San's eyes lit up when he saw her.
"Xiao Wu, what are you doing here so late?"
Because of Su Yan's presence, the original dorm arrangement had changed — Xiao Wu wasn't staying in Dorm Seven anymore but in the girls' dorms instead.
As a result, her relationship with Tang San wasn't quite as close as in the original story.
In fact, she seemed to get along much better with Su Yan, whose unique mutated Martial Soul fascinated her.
Of course… that didn't stop Tang San from liking her all the same.
